Who needs an alarm clock?

 "I like to make sure Lynn nevfur evfur ovfur sleeps."

"I have this terrific scratchy post in the bedroom. And I use

it a lot in the dark of the morning.  It makes lotsa noise

as my claws rip the sisal rope. The hard cardboard knocks

on the wood leg.  I can nevfur let Lynn git too much sleep."

Somewhere between 4:30 AM and when I get up at 5,

Precious will start the morning alarm.  She never

meows, she never jumps on the bed,  but she really

knows how to use that scratcher. 

You may ask why then is it in the bedroom.  Long story

short,  it was made for Angel Seney years ago and lived

elsewhere. But moving into this house,  we have one scratcher

in the living area and one in the basement.  So this little

table used to be a window seat, it is now just like a 

night stand with a built in alarm.

"Lynn,  tell me that you nevfur evfur hada

alarm clock this loud and timely.  I must git 

my breakfast on time.  And I gotta pawty to

go to today at June's house!"

"Check us all out at Zoolatry with all our

finery on and tea and crumpets."

What better way to celebrate our Blogoversary!

Me and my Gal Pal

 "Lynn, which one of us has a gal pal? You or me or both of us."

Precious, we must be each other's gal pal.

"This is a member of the armoire clowder. And

fur me."

"It's a good thing it does not hiss or meow or scratch.

Else I'd have to show it a thing er two myself."

I bought this when you came here nearly 14 years ago, Precious.

I wanted to add a cat to my other three stuffed animals to

represent my furry girls.  It is a bit lighter than you

but still in a grey onesie.

"Well, I'm glad you got me a special look-alike kitty."

The large grey one represents my long lost tripod Peepers.

The black and white is sweet Suzy Q.

The calico is the closest I could come to Seney

who was a tri color Maine Coon.

"I wasn't a feral kitty, but I was left at the orphanage.

I'm a lucky cat that Lynn found me there.

And guess what!  My 2 hoomans volunteered

to git shots.  Lynn will now complain about

a sore arm fur something called flu and covid.

If she only knew how bad I feel when I git my

rabies shot,  I got no sympathy fur them."

Why didn't you take me too?

 "Lynn,  ya got lots of weird sights to see biking. Nothin' near as purrty as me, of course.  And how come I have to stay home?"

These tiny dots are dozens of migrating Swallows.  Looked 

like Tree Swallows from down below.

Sun and bad photo makes turkey look golden.  He's black.

"Lynn coasted behind this wild turkey down the bike path fur quite a

ways.  She was plannin' on bringin' it home fur Thanksgiving

Day.  But eventually she says the silly thing dropped off

into the woods."

Llama after a shave but needs a hair cut.

Iron Weed

                                                                                  

Ageratum and Goldenrod

                                                                                     

Blackheaded Vultures  (huge)

                                                                                    

This is the sun at 9:30 AM one day on the bike path.

We have had so much rain and then days of fog, that

blue sky was not to be seen. This week has been the

sunniest in 2 months.

"Kin ya tell these mommas are still ready to feed their big

babies?  They got lots of milk left over.  I've never 

drank milk here, so I wonder if I'm missin' out on

somethin' good?"

"Lynn,  I'm sittin' here at the counter waiting to

try somethin' good to eat or drink.  What's holdin'

you up!" 

Precious, no milk in this house so I guess

you'll just have to be disappointed.

It began with 3

 "Lynn had so many caterpillars last year we gotta 4th box. And it's a good thing she did. The nursery was in smaller plastic boxes."

"I warned her not to start this.  But after the furst 3 early on

there ended up being eggs after eggs laid out furont."

"She went out evfurry day and brought in teensy tiny 'pillars

and had to feed them all."

"They were purrty obligin' and grew up to be Monarch 

Butterflies eventually.  We had 102.  So glad that

Mackerull over at Trout Towne was wrong about

us gittin' 732 this year.  Lynn woulda gone over

the edge."

"I'm just glad they flew away afore winter and filled up my house."

"Lynn says we even had a few 'pillars escape her attention

and we found a few butterflies hatchin' in Seney's 

pink garden sedums! And we only fed 9 'pillars 

that ended up not hatchin' acause of the parasites 

got 'em."

Big Baby

 "Dear furiends,  if'n yer peeple call you a big baby, show 'em this big baby."

"Yep, Lynn said mama cow is only a tad bigger than her

hunger baby who wants it's milk.!"

"Now me fur instance, I'm a big girl, not a big baby.

And I git treated like a princess mostly."

How do I look in Pink?

"Lynn,  I'm wearing pink fur saying happy birthday to Willie on Sept. 21!  He luvs pink."

"I don't usually dress up so much but I was inspecting the

drawer and found a pink cape just my size.

I think the pink brings out the grey in my onesie."

If only I did not have to open every drawer and 

pull them out for your inspection, Precious.

"But Lynn,  I find new stuff all the time!"

My furry own nippy plant

"Lynn made sure she got a good wacky weed seedling this Spring."

"And when I go out on my catio, I have plenty to chew."

"And I attack it furom evfurry angle."

"I find it lip smacking yummy. And then I go in and sleep it off."

Precious,  you some times really get into helping

yourself to catnip plant.  And it does seem to put you 

to sleep.  I don't always have luck with one in a pot.

The one out front is protected to a point that the 

neighborhood cats can not just roll in it and break it off.

But I also keep a wild one that is available for that 

until it is worn off or dies from too much attention.
