I didn’t get ANY!!! Well, we had latkes for dinner on the 12th in honor of Hanukkah and boy were they good.  Well, I think they were good because I SMELLED them sizzling but I’m not allowed to have onions so what the heck. Mama described them for me as I listened patiently, drooling all over myself.  Crispy potato/onion/flour/egg batter spooned...

SORRY. This was supposed to go out on the 12th. Ah, well, two for one this week! Are you kidding me about that Silent Night video?  Those are REAL kitties singing?  Well, I clearly have to take some singing lessons! And  I’m going to have to put in a link to Jingle Cats because we just saw it for the first time and it’s really pretty amazing. ...

OH, NO!  Mamma just came in and got me to go look at The Tree.  So it’s here, I guess…the countdown until Santa Claws comes sneakin’ around.  Two weeks.  Oh, boy, and I haven’t bought or wrapped anything for anyone!  But Ann Adamus did a lovely greeting to ALL of you!  And since we are in Roma, buon natale, too.  What if Santa...

Well, whatever that is.  I seem to be burning it. Why is it that I have to think up, do the graphics, and eventually write my blog when it’s almost midnight and I’m about to DROP.  Not that a kitty ever puts out much exertion during the day, but seriously, folks, it’s not easy checking out all the pantry doors, the outside piazza and all...

Well, I ask you–how can I be lying here in a nice warm sun puddle minding my own business and suddenly hear a trumpet, a giant horn, some drums and who knows what else just outside the window and see THIS: Those guys have nothing to do with being warm, sun puddling, relaxation of an afternoon or anything else I can think of.  Those guys have ONE...

Hey, here is the fearless Tuxie looking as if she is about to climb the wall! And here’s the fearless Tuxie actually climbing the wall! Ah, the adventuresome terrifying Tuxie finally made it to the ceiling.  Will she drop off or stick? Well, she chose to drop into a plethora (whatever that is) of rabbit-punching toys.  That whole thing was...

Well, mama took some shots for me of ENJOY because kitties were not allowed, and besides, I was a little…er…nervous thinking about all those eyeballs watching my every move.  Naturally, they were mama’s favourite installation, weird as she is.  But the entry to the show was really lovely and because it was in an open patio, the museum had...

These anthros are so embarrassing! Well, mama and papa were out and about in this crazy city where anthros do funny things on the streets and then you give them a little money and this was a doozie.  I’ve put this in before because this guy is STATIC but he looks as if he is running and his tie is flying and what he did was hand mama his briefcase...

Here’s the slightly roly-poly Tuxie starting to get in shape for the holidays. One, two, one, two… I have heard through the grapevine, whatever that means, that SOME kitties tend to partake of slightly larger meals than usual, due to their sweet and thoughtful providers who are feeling the holiday spirit and putting, say, just a tad bit more on...

Hey, those little guys sound like a KICK!!! But eating MY food? Hmmm…Janine probably puts out enough for all, knowing her. Well, mama was just reading one of her favourite online magazines, France, The Good Life (Editor: Janine Marsh) and there was this really sweet paragraph about hedgehogs and so I’m putting in a link to the editor’s...

So here’s the big question:  Once one has chased and tormented and CAUGHT a FAKE animal, what does one DO with it? I ask you?  Life is so full of these philosophical questions, it could wear a kitty out. One passes...

Well, this is just mama’s bath time and I’m being very thorough tonight because sometimes mama has the taste of things she’s made for dinner and tonight there is a nice little olive oil flavour to her skin.  Plus, I really love to bath them both.  You’d think anthros know how to do this but I never see them with their tongues out...
