Like A Well Oiled Machine

Hello my friends!

I know it  may seem like my entire life is a big walk in the park, but there is alot that goes on behind the scenes that my readers never see!  I thought I'd share that with you with this post!

I help my tall human with all sorts of handyman tasks around the house, such as painting:

And mechanical work:

I always help with the laundry:

I help keep my short human motivated during her workouts:

In the past I've helped her study:

And after grocery shopping I always help put the produce away!

It takes alot of teamwork to keep a family running like a well oiled machine and I think I certainly do my part!


Thanks for reading!!  I'll get those pictures of Maggie up with my next post!

Human Hogs

My humans have been hogging the computer so I haven't had the time to formulate a blog post this week!

I'm going to leave you with this picture of myself on one of my walks.

I tried to climb the tree but couldn't get very far!  The bark of this avocado tree didn't lend itself very well to good traction!

Stop by next week for some funny pictures of Maggie!

Welcome Home

Good evening!  Just a quick post for my readers because I have excellent news!

After long last, my tall human is finally home!

The Long Walk

Good morning, my friends!  Good afternoon to my readers on the east coast!

I had such a fun walk this morning I wanted to share it with my readers!  My short human and I went on the longest walk we've ever walked together and I had such a grand time!  We went for a walk through the avocado groves:

At the halfway point, I stopped for a break and for a bite to eat:

Looking back, we've come a long way!

My human is so lame, she wouldn't let me crawl all the way into this cave:

On the way back, I took a break at the same patch of grass:

We walked so far today, I'm beginning to think I'll wear my human's GPS watch, that she wears while running, so I can track how far and fast I've gone!

Afterwards, my human brushed my fur!  I love being brushed!  My human says she was doing it out of the kindness of her heart but I am very doubtful of that because I know she had an ulterior motive.  That being, trying to get all the dirt out of my fur before I hopped into bed.

Finally, I finished up my morning by eating breakfast again!

To all my giveaway winners, have no fear!  I will get your prizes to you as soon as possible!  My tall human is coming home much later than expected and I can't wait for him to see me in my woodland camouflage outfit!

Have a great week!

Happy Memorial Day!

Happy Memorial Day to all my readers!

Semper Fi!

Tools That Simplify My Life

Hello everyone!

I hope you're having an outstanding weekend!  During this post, I'm going to share with you the tools I use everyday to simplify my life!

Starting with:

A step stool to my food - In case you're wondering why I eat my food at such an elevated position it is because
a)  I'm a cat!  
b) It helps deter the ants!

This is off subject, but if you'll direct your eyes to the upper left corner of the above photo, you'll see a blue towel strewn across the bottom of the door.  There is a small space between the door and the floor and my human puts the towel down (get this) to prevent lizards from entering the house!!!  That makes absolutely no sense to me, so if you have any idea why one would wish to prevent that, please let me know!

The next tool I use everyday to simplify my life is:

An ammo can - I use this all the time to help me get in and out of bed.  Maggie thinks she's too cool to use it but I keep telling her, "Wait until you're my age."  After all, she is two years younger than I am.  The ammo can ended up there entirely by accident but became so useful it is now a permanent fixture.

The following isn't really a tool but something fun I felt like mentioning.  It was made by my human Grandpa. 

I don't use it a whole lot any more now that my tall human hasn't been home to help me down.  It's a long way down when you weigh 16.5 pounds!

Lastly, don't forget that if you entered my giveaway that means you're automatically a winner!  Please send your address to wind2wings at gmail dot com so I can get your prize in the mail!

A Day In The Life Of Wiley - Part II

Hello!

This post is a continuation from my last post about a day in my life.  To read the first part of my day please click here.

The rest of my day generally consists of the aforementioned three points in my previous post in a rotation.  Meowing, eating, and sleeping.  Depending on the day I'll start mewoing loudly again between 1200 and 1400 until I get my mush food between 1500 and 1600.  I always hope to be fed before then and sometimes my human gets sick of my meowing and gives in, so it is well worth meowing for 2 - 3 hours if it results in me getting fed early.  Afterwards, I nap some more:

I might eat some dry food for dessert if I'm still hungry and then sleep until bedtime.  When bedtime rolls around and my human shuts off all the lights, I usually get up and start meowing loudly for awhile until she yells at me.  I do this every night and it makes her really mad.  I guess it is kind of my way of getting back at her for waking me up early in the morning with alarms and bright lights.  Then I usually eat some more and finally go to bed!

I get up several times in the night to meow loudly, eat, make use of the kitty litter facilities (where I like to scratch my claws on the walls until my human yells at me) and meow some more.

That's my life, my friends!  Whew!  This is a long post! 

But, as you can see, a lot goes on in a day in my life!

Lastly, because there are no losers here on Wiley's Blog, everyone who entered my giveaway won!!  So, if you entered my giveaway please email me at wind2wings at gmail dot com with your address or PO box and I'll get the goodies (with some surprises thrown in!) to you by the end of the month!

Stop by next week for my post on tools that simplify my life!
