Broad Bean Boogie

Posted by on Oct 12, 2019 | 8 comments

  Well, mama is in here helping me get this blog out and in a few hours the sun will be gone and the MOON WILL BE FULL!!! HORREUR! You MUST get your beans in before the full moon sends all its powers down to your garden and admonishes the planter (hey, mama, not me!) for not planting while Mr Moon started to wax. Wait a minute, why does the moon wax?...

Short Sighted

Posted by on Oct 11, 2019 | 12 comments

              I am raising my patte to vote for MORE FOOD! Well,  this is what happened.   Mama has been giving me my breakfast and dinner, as usual, but keeping an eye on my possible rotundity, and as she was fixing my dinner tonight, she exclaimed, “LOULOU, I’ve been giving you only part of your new wet food...

Quiche Me, Kat!

Posted by on Oct 9, 2019 | 14 comments

                        (Papa is full of funnies lately and I think it’s because he feels so good after his ordeal!) Haha, papa said I could have used that one, too, with apologies to old Willie Shakespeare (whoever that is but I know he’s important because we have lots of his writing...

Quiche Me

Posted by on Oct 8, 2019 | 16 comments

                  Papa is so, so funny…we were having one of those French classics with eggs and cheese and pastry and papa started singing, “You must remember thees, a quiche is just  a quiche, a pie is just a pie…” 🎼la la la… And of course, mama cracked up!!! Sometimes papa can be...

Chicken Feed

Posted by on Oct 7, 2019 | 13 comments

(                 (Personally,  I think she’s off her rocker, wherever that is.) Well, mama is a bit perturbed right now because her beloved “acquired” chickies, who come running when they see her now, thinking dinner will be served (!), have gotten finicky.  They’ll  only eat pasta with olive...

Birth Days

Posted by on Oct 6, 2019 | 16 comments

            (I just  can’t remember  which panda is which!) OH, we were so touched and excited today to see the teensy little adorable panda that was born a few months ago and today made her debut in public. At least mama thinks it’s the one born a few months ago.  We couldn’t find  any other stories about...

Fangs A Lot

Posted by on Oct 5, 2019 | 12 comments

            Well, whenever I have a nice big yawn, and this gets a little personal as you will see, mama and papa (both) happen to look over and they BOTH say, WOW, LOULOU, you have got one set of pretty formidable front teeth! Fangs, in any language, but we kitties DO have those, which is why we can tear the throats out of...

Empire State

Posted by on Oct 4, 2019 | 11 comments

                  You dig? Well, you know, we kitties all have ambition even thoughb it’s not evident most of the time because of our laid-back manner of being in the world.  We are very subtle, not to say subversive, rulers. But the WORLD, in which we kitties ARE, knows full well what our station in life...

If Music Be the Food…

Posted by on Oct 3, 2019 | 15 comments

                  (Hmm…I wonder what key I should play in…) Well, let’s just get to the point.  Watch this video and then let’s talk. A friend in LA who is a food expert sent this to mama and papa and last night they almost fell out of bed laughing! So I guess it might not be that...

Sand Which Is There

Posted by on Oct 2, 2019 | 12 comments

            No, not sand, SANDWICH.  That’s a play on words that mama and papa use sometimes when they fool around with the word “sandwich”.  As in are we having a picnic on the sand-which-is-there…aww, forget it.  In-jokes are so boring. Meanwhile, mama reads lots of books by southern writers who...

Mews Maligned

Posted by on Oct 1, 2019 | 11 comments

                  You know, there are so many quotes about kitties that sometime not exactly flattering, and I would like to hear some NICE things about us—our gentle spirits, our searching souls, our incredible ability to stay perfectly calm and keep our head when all the insane anthros about us are losing...

Growing Up

Posted by on Sep 30, 2019 | 13 comments

              Well, it seems that all of mama’s plants, which have been here for some time, but were, let us say, teen-agers, have had a growth spurt at the end of this hot and heady summer and become adults! I check out things daily, making sure the arugula (whatever that is) doesn’t take over and the oregano...

Bed Rock

Posted by on Sep 29, 2019 | 16 comments

              Well, I’m sure you see clearly whose bed this is. Mine. Papa THINKS he will sleep on this side, but he has another think coming.               Things have changed around here. I was looking for a bed, I needed a bed, and voila, I found a bed and it is MINE!  ...

Mews News

Posted by on Sep 28, 2019 | 12 comments

            Well, I  started thinking that I had better catch up on  what’s happening in politics, seeing as how the time is drawing nigh (wherever that is) to have elections everywhere. I started checking out the Italian paper…(see above).  Then I consulted my iPad and  computer news, and  I even went to our...

Kick Off

Posted by on Sep 27, 2019 | 19 comments

            Well, it’s that season again…you know, when those anthros throw pigskins around (ugh…) and run up and down a field and then yell and yell and then eat on the backs of their cars. Whatever all this means. But I have my own kick-offs (read: rabbit) right here at home. First I find something to...

Taking A Dive

Posted by on Sep 26, 2019 | 8 comments

                  (Oh, lordy, am I really going to jump off this board?) Well,  you  know what taking a dive can mean…a fake fall-down in sports (yellow card for  that!) or those incredible guys jumping off of 200-foot cliffs into seas in faraway places, or simply a swim-meet or an Olympic diving...

Heal!

Posted by on Sep 25, 2019 | 12 comments

              No, no not as in doggy training!  Just  the opposite.  My aunty Lynne has healing hands and when she visits,  she touches me in just the right places, so that yesterday when  I was, uh, sparring with the weather, she came over and started caressing me in her Lynnelike way and voila,  I was...

Whither The Weather

Posted by on Sep 24, 2019 | 17 comments

                  (I think I had a headache from all that dirt beef…) Well, today, I was a bit under the weather. But wait a minute, does anyone ever get OVER the weather? Mama looked everywhere for me in the house but if she had just looked under the weather, she would have found me immediately. Those...

Ground Beef

            (I’m washin’ up for this dirt dinner!) Well, mama took me aside a few minutes ago and said, “Loulou, tonight you’re going to have a rare treat (so to speak) – a little taste of papa’s hamburger and it’s made with fresh ground beef.” GROUND BEEF?  Does that mean mama...
