A Day In The Life Of Wiley - Part I

Grab a cup of coffee/tea/viso or whatever you drink and sit back, my friends!  

If my humans don't wake me first, I usually wake up between 0600 and 1030 and depending on the day I immediately start meowing.  This isn't any kind of innocent mew mew kind of Maggie style meowing.  This is straight up cat yowling.  Okay, not quite that bad but I do let my voice be heard!  I know where my leash and collar are kept so I scratch at them and meow.

When it seems like I'm not getting anywhere, that is when I have to pull out the big guns.  And that is purring.  Humans are suckers for purring and I can turn it on big time when necessary.  I start purring loudly, meowing and rubbing on human legs.  I don't believe purring has EVER failed me.

When we finally get to go outside it is great!!

If it is warm enough I like to roll around in the dirt or pavement.  I love to roll on the pavement because it scratches my back:


Here are a couple of pictures from my recent walk.  It gives you an idea of what it is like where I live and I think you will understand why I always want to go outside (unless it is raining).  Which, much to my humans disappointment, is very infrequent here in southern California.


Sometimes I like to pretend I'm doing gymnastics on the balance beam:


My walk is usually followed by a nap. Nothing better than a nap after a long walk! If it is hot outside I lie on floor where it is cooler:

Then, I grab a bite to eat to fill the calorie deficit I created with my walk followed by either another nap or I start meowing for my supper!  Tune in next week for part two of, "A day in the life of Wiley!"

P.S.  If you haven't done so, please enter my GIVEAWAY!  I've also sweetened the deal!  He/she who wins will also receive various motivational stickers!

  1. You really have a nice area to go for walks! It is quite a bit more scenic then here in Lubbock, TX. So, you see, things could be worse!

  2. Hi Wiley,
    Your outside place is really, really beautiful. You blend in with the rocks quite well....don't need camouflage for that.
    I still think you should write a children's book. Walking the balance beam was quite a feat, too.
    I already entered the giveaway....Mary Rose is hoping we win.
    Keep your humans in line.
    Love,
    Grandbabka

  3. Meow Wiley,

    You live on a beautiful mountain.
    Are there any wild animals around there?
    Looks like you are enjoying your walk. Have lost lost any weight? You enjoy your nap.
