What is Labour Day?

I don't know what it is, but I do know that it means mum is home on a Monday with us instead of being at work. We like that a LOT.

Mum took these photos with the camera on her laptop. As you can see, I am not in them, because I didn't feel like sitting still. So instead for me we shall use this very mancatly photo:

You can see that I wasn't very impressed with the flashy box. But this photo shows off my whiskers and my white chest furs.

Sister Sunday: Holidays are for relaxing!

Mum is taking some holiday time while our visitor is here, and so we are all doing some well-needed relaxing!

A sleepy Boxing Day.

I was just minding my own business when mum realized she didn't know where I was.

Unfortunately my size gives me away:


Just to be sure, mum had to check.


Zowie came to ask what I thought of sleeping under the covers, because I got the idea from her.


I'm awake now, so I'd best get out of bed. It sure was snuggly though!

Hurrah for Fridays!

Here is a great photo from mum's trip! It's the Natural Bridge in Banff National Park. I think it's really pretty, but I don't know that I'd like to go to that park because mum says there are bears!


Mum is very happy it is Friday because she says it's been a long week (even though she only worked 4 days). She was in Kelowna last weekend with extended family and it was very hot (38C!). And here this week it has been rainy and cold, so it is a big adjustment!


(This is a view from the balcony of the fancy hotel mum stayed at. She says the very red morning sun is because of nearby forest fires making the sky all hazy.)


Mum says that kitties are fine to eat raw meat (she wanted to answer a question from our previous post about tasty chicken livers.) If she has chicken she always slices bits of it off for us kitties before she cooks it. I love those kinds of treats a LOT. In fact I will sit in the kitchen in the hopes that she will remember to give me some tasty treats. Zowie still doesn't really like those sorts of things though, and Pandora only likes some of them.

Mum also has been trying us on some raw turkey (which is mixed with the supplements from FelineFuture.) I like that turkey quite a lot and tonight I ate it and left my Nature's Variety chicken in the dish! Mum mixes that turkey with Wellness canned turkey for Pandora and Zowie, and they seem to like it okay.

You see that picture up there? Mum took it because I am playing with my new toy. It is a long bunch of yarn that she put together with knots and I can chase it everywhere, and drop it off my scratching post and stuff. Pandora and Zowie like playing with it too but I tend to butt in because I like it a lot.

And finally for tonight I'd like to say hi to all my friends! Hi to Poppy, Tober, Kari, The Crew, Daisy, Huffle (definitely try the chicken livers!), Noir, Rufus, Angel & Kirby, Reese, the Creek Cats, GJ, Teri, and everycat and every mum and dad. :)

Holiday Mancat Monday

Today is a holiday in Canada - it's Victoria Day. It's also very wet and rainy out again, so us cats and mum are hanging out inside where it's warm. Here I am this morning, snoopervising the doings of the living room. Zowie is sleeping on the cushion and Pandora is snuggled up with mum because she's not feeling well. Mum said she's had an upset tummy. Hopefully she'll feel better soon.

Yesterday was a fun day because I got to see my friend Lori, who used to take care of me at the shelter. She came for a visit and gave me lots of cheek rubs and scritches. :)
