A True Carnivore - Yumm!

Can I just tell you, REAL food rocks! Grilled steak? Love it. Rotisserie Chicken. Yumm. Tuna fish. Sounds good. Don't get me wrong, I still like my beef Fancy Feast (add a little bit of evaporated milk please) and "D" and "T" don't let me have special treats very often, but every once in a while I am offered a little morsel of "people food" and I just can't get enough.

Why is it called "people food" anyway. Aren't cats the ultimate carnivores? I suppose the semantics aren't important. I just know that I LOVE the stuff. If it was up to me I'd forego cat food altogether and stick with the scraps from "T"'s plate, but I don't think that's an option. Oh well, I suppose I'll just keep looking forward to my special treats and hope that I start to get them more often in my forever home (hint, hint).

So, if you have a soft spot for this hungry kitty who wants to lick your plate clean, send me an email and we can ararange a time to meet. I'm really looking forward to it!

THIS is why I like Football...

Need I say more? Talk about "a picture speaks a thousand words". Sunday afternoon football games give me the opportunity to do what I like best - relax with my foster dad "T". Don't get me wrong, I like to hang out with "D" too, but she doesn't really sit down and relax very often and she definitely doesn't watch football. I have to say, I'm not really a fan of the game myself (it's kind of confusing and the uniforms are hideous), but I love lounging around cuddled up next to "T", so it works out great!

I keep saying my prayers that my forever family will like to spend their time relaxing and cuddling with me. That will make me SO happy. I mean, I understand that people have to go to work and have other things they have to do sometimes, but I want to live with people who will spend their free time relaxing with me. If you have lots of free time, all the better. I would love to find a nice person that spends a lot of time at home to adopt me. That would be perfect. I hope you are sitting at home reading this thinking about how great it would to have me there with you. Just send me an email and we can chat. Who knows, we may just be the perfect match!

Shhh... I'm watching My Stories.

Most things that "D" and "T" do make no sense to me (i.e. working, exercising, talking to each other, etc.), but there is one thing they do that I totally understand. What is it, you ask? Duh! Watching TV of course. Seriously, what could be better than plopping down in front of that magical screen and letting your worries fade away? When I get worried that I might not find a home before I have to go back to MaxFund, I just sit down in front of the tube and let it all go. Whether it's Project Runway or Man vs. Wild, I love it all.

"D" and "T" limit me to one or two hours of TV a day (completely lame if you ask me), but I make the best of it. Tonight I saw part of a PBS documentary about the Dalai Lama and a fun show called Tabitha's Salon Takeover. Talk about yin and yang! It was fun hanging out with "D" and "T" and the other cats for some good quality time. The only thing I hate is that "D" is in charge of the remote control most of the time and she's always changing it. Back and forth, back and forth. If I could just get my paws on that thing, I'd be all set.

Oh well, I sure didn't have any TV at the shelter, so I guess I should just count my blessings. Maybe when I get my forever family, I can convince them to give me my very own TV. Ah, a girl can dream right? Off to bed now, but I'll catch you later!

I LOVE Sundays!

Ahhh.... Sunday. My favorite day of the week. "T" hangs out with me all morning long, which is so nice. We watch tv, work on the computer, read and just chill together. Those other kitties sometimes get mad because he let's me lay on his belly and be the center of attention.

I'm having such a good time here, but I know it won't last. I am hoping against hope that I get a forever home soon and I don't have to go back to the shelter. I hope that someone out there is reading this and falling in love with me. If that's you, please email me to get more information on how to adopt me. I'm relying on someone out there in cyberspace to be my new family.

I could not be a better cat. I am a very good girl and I'm so easy to take care of. All I need is some love and affection (along with food, water, potty box, etc. of course) and I am happy as a clam. As you can see from the picture, I get an A+ in the affection department :-)

How can you resist my sweet face?

Missing "T"

Man, I really miss "T" when he's not here. He's traveling for work and "D" told me he's coming back tomorrow night, but I still miss him. He is such a good foster dad. He pays lots of attention to me and makes me feel like part of the family, which is so nice. It makes me think about what it will be like when I have my own family. I'll get love and attention all the time!

"D" tries her best, but she's in "single mom" mode with "T" not here. You know what I mean, she's trying to take care of all three of us and juggle work and errands and chores, etc. I don't know how people do it. Don't they know that it's much easier to be a cat? I hope I come back in my next life as a cat again and not a person. That's too much work.

Well, "D" is letting me sit on her lap while I write my blog, which is cool. I'm off to bed now. I hope I dream about my new home and my new family. I'm waiting for you to come and get me.

Hide n' Seek

Hi everyone. Sorry it's been so long since my last post. I was feeling a bit of writer's block, so I decided to take a few days off to clear my head. I took the opportunity to really settle in to my surroundings here. I know it's only temporary, but I figure I should enjoy myself as much as possible right? I like to think of it as a sabbatical. I'm in that in between stage between the shelter and my forever home and I'm just trying to go with the flow.

"D" and "T" have been great to me. They shower me with attention and they never stop feeding me. I'm still thin as can be, but I'm having fun trying to get fat ;-) I've finally convinced them that no matter how many kinds of high-falutin' cat food they get me, I'm only eating one thing - Fancy Feast beef chunks in gravy. That stuff is awesome! I love it, love it, love it!

Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you. I played the most fun game today. I decided it would be hilarious to hide downstairs in the basement and scare the beejesus out of "D". It worked like a charm. She looked and looked and couldn't find me anywhere. Then, as soon as she left the room I came out and plopped down in plain sight. Not only did I scare her, I made her think she was crazy when she came back and saw me sitting there. Hee, hee. What fun! Who knows what I'll come up with next. I guess you'll have to stay tuned to find out...

Growing Pains

So, "T" worked from home today, which was very cool. I spent the morning hanging out with him while he worked. It's so nice to have people around during the day. Usually it's just me and those other two cats. They're okay, but I don't think they are as happy to have me here as I am to be here. They kind of stick together and leave me out. It's just like high school. Oh well, at least they aren't mean to me. I don't think they understand how lucky they are to have a nice home with a family that loves them. I sure don't take it for granted, even if it is only temporary. I know that I will have my own forever home soon, and I will never forget how lucky I am.

When "D" came home from work I followed her around the house and meowed until she sat down and took time to pet me. I don't think I've ever been petted as much as I have been today. It was awesome! All in all it was a great day. I can't wait to see what tomorrow brings. Well, off to dream land now. Talk at ya later!

Long Weekends Rock!

Thank you Labor Day! I loved having an extra day to spend with "D" & "T" this weekend. I got watch tv with "T" and read and play on the computer with "D" AND I got to know my foster siblings Linus and Lucy better too. They are pretty cool, but Lucy is kind of snotty. She hissed and growled at me when we first met, but I hissed and growled right back and she realized real quick that I wasn't taking any of her attitude. I mean, hello, I lived on the mean streets of Denver and in a shelter?!?!? We are getting along good now and that Linus guy is pretty nice. He just leaves me alone for the most part which is fine by me.

I've just been hanging out, eating a lot and exploring the house some. As you can see, I like to sit in the sun by the back door where I can see and hear outside. It reminds me of the old days, not that I want to go back to that life. No thank you. I am perfectly happy being an indoor cat and when I get my forever home I won't ever try to leave. Don't forget to email "D" and "T" about adopting me. I don't have a lot of time here and I really want to get a real home before I have to go back to MaxFund. PLEASE, please, please don't wait. I'm here waiting for you. See you soon!
