The Weight Issue

So I supposedly have a "weight issue".

And once again it was brought to my attention by my humans via the packaging of some treats that were given to me by my human grandma.
Of course my short human grabs me and starts squeezing my waist and running her hands down my sides proclaiming, "I can't feel his ribs!  Or his spine!"

Then Maggie has to show off her trim figure so that my humans have someone to compare me to:

I believe I'd look that thin if my humans shaved all my fur off.  Not that I'm going to let them.
As I've said before, my weight doesn't bother me.  I eat when I'm hungry, no regret, guilt, or remorse!
There's just that much more of me to love!
Thanks for stopping by!  See you next week!

I Spy

Good morning, friends!

It was a very exciting morning at the viewing window, let me tell you!

First, I spied out the viewing window:
A lizard, of course!
But wait!  It gets better!  The lizard quickly left his post because:
A squirrel took his place!  Do you see him?
It was a very exciting morning at the viewing window, indeed!  I apologize for the low quality of the photographs.  The photos were taken through the screen in the window!

On another note, I hope that everyone received their giveaway packages!  If you'd like me to post a photo on my blog of your baby (human or otherwise!) wearing the camoflauge clothes send it to my email at wind2wings at gmail dot com!

See you next week!

315.75 - 25 = 290.75

Happy Sunday, friends!

First of all, I want to thank everyone for all the wonderful comments they leave on my blog all the time!  Especially the ones left on my post about my tall humans homecoming.  I haven't been able to figure out how to create the reply button for comments and I apologize for that.  Just remember I read and value every single comment I receive!

Moving on, in the past I have referred to my home as a shoebox.  Which it is.  However, I have mistakenly referred to it as being much larger than it really is.

My humans and I were watching a video on the internet of "tiny houses" where one was 350 square feet and we're all thinking, "Wow, that is small!"  So, out of curiosity we measured our shoebox and it turns out that it is only 315.75 square feet.  Of course I don't make use of the human head (a.k.a. bathroom), so I subtract 25 square feet so I'd say I actually live in a 290.75 square foot shoebox.  I mistakenly referred to it as being 500 square feet when it is roughly 3/5 that size.  I acquired this photo of our shoebox from my human before we moved in.  This room is the foyer/living room/bedroom:  
If one walks out the door to the right it leads to the deck.  Turning left leads to the kitchen/living room/office area. 

Around the corner, behind the icebox, is where the human head is located at: 
There is a deck off the foyer/living room/bedroom.  I did not include the deck in my measurements.  This also doubles as a dining room for the humans.
The deck is cool, but my humans don't let me out there because I just jump off of it:

That's the tour!  No wonder I feel like I'm in a cage.....

I have some great ideas in the works for future posts so don't go away!

Maggie?

Hello my friends!

I hope all is well with my readers!  As I'm sure you can imagine, I've had a bear of a time getting my paws on the computer with two humans in the house!  As promised, I have enclosed some recent pictures of my sister, Maggie:

Seriously, don't ask me what my humans were thinking:

They call it a "lion cut" but...

1) Maggie is a female
2) I call it a poodle cut



This just isn't right... my humans say they do this because, "Maggie's hair gets matted and she won't let them brush her without turning them bloody" but I don't know.  Maggie says she doesn't mind because, "it makes it that much easier for the humans to scratch my back and I stay much cooler when the weather warms."

On another note, I have finally gotten the prizes for my giveaway winners together and in mail!  I hope you'll forgive me.  It isn't easy for a cat to get to the post office!  So be sure to keep your eyes peeled for the mail man this week!

In the meantime, I'm watching my humans like a hawk!  I'd like to keep my hair, thank you very much!

Catch you later!
