As exciting as me...a doctor’s appointment on the way to work; a 90 minutes class on Excel formulas (could be interesting), then rush home, pick up Mom, and hair cuts.

The last 2 times she could walk in and out, but I don’t think that can happen this time. I’ll take the wheelchair.

Same here. They don’t want me to know if they feel that way because they’ll get an earful and then some!

I haven’t even pulled the birds up yet. Watched Survivor and now am going through kitty pix to see if I have any of them acting up. LOTS of pix to go through. Imagine that. LOL

A pretty active day for you!
Other than the grocery shopping, it was just a little housework here. Got some laundry going now. How to stand all the excitement. hee!

From what you’ve said about your mom’s knees acting up these days, it sounds like a good idea to take the wheelchair. It’s got to be frustrating for her not being able to walk much these days.

Well, I'm not finding much in the way of kittehs-acting-up pix but did find this one of Gabby, which is typical behavior for her ANY time. Sitting on the back of the desk chair with claws and teeth in my head. OUCH!

LOL, Gabby doesn't sound like the friendliest of kittehs, I would be inclined to give her....a stern talking to (or the back hand.)

I'm outta here, radu, see you tomorrow!

Howdy, Kathy! (((hugs)))

How are you doing today? Is everything running smoothly at the new office digs? Do you ever get a chance to go shopping at the mall, since it’s nearby now?

Gabby’s actually a sweetie. She just gets a little demanding when she wants attention. LOL! She doesn’t claw or bite hard but it DOES get my attention.

Good night and sleep well. Hope you have a grand day tomorrow.

You should have plenty of opportunities of kitties acting up! Especially around the full moon. Which comes around again this Saturday.

It’s funny that I don’t notice any difference in mine. Maybe it’s me not being attuned to it. Though I do love the full moon.

PRO had said I should get pix or videos of them when they’re on their full moon tear this weekend and looked to see if I had any pix already. Not much but cute and funny pix. Too hard to catch them when they’re racing through the house.
So I posted the one of Gabby on my head.

Maybe you got lucky and got kittehs that don’t feel the moon. I’ve never been that lucky, even when I had only two at a time. That’s been a looooooong time ago. LOL!

I’ve always loved the full moon and enjoy getting to walk under it. No flashlight required. :-)
But I don’t think we’ll see it here this month. We aren’t getting much in the way of rain this week but the clouds just won’t move out. :-(

She’s a stinker alright! Has been since before she was born.

Her poor little momma made the mistake of getting together with a large male. She got so large, she rarely got up the last 3 weeks she was pregnant. I called her “Octo-Mom” because I just knew there had to be at least 8 kittens in there. There were only 5.
And one was constantly in motion, which had to wear poor Isis out. I’d sit next to her and rub “Lump” through her belly trying to get it to be still.

After they were born, it was obvious which one was “Lump”. It was Gabby. Even when she slept, she twitched and moved all the time.

She’s a spoiled brat and was spoiled before she was born due to me rubbing her so much. And that mischievous look in her eyes is always there. She’s a stinker!

Maybe all that rubbing of your head is her doing for you what you did for her when she was Lump. Only with claws.

My Peaches has started napping with me, curled up behind my head on my pillow. He must always be touching me, but sometimes he forgets to NOT use his claws. I have to remind him. This afternoon, I felt like a pincushion. LOL!

And he only means to be sweet. In his own way. :)

Naaah, she does it when she wants attention and I ignore her. She knows it’s hard to ignore that. LOL! She’s no dummy.

Ellie likes to sleep on my pillow like Peaches does with you. No clawing but it makes me hot. I wake up kicking covers off and moving her off the pillow.

It’s wonderful being loved by our kittehs but sometimes it can be a bit much, can’t it? :-)

It is. There is NO privacy when they’re around. They have to BE there...wherever there is. :)

But they’re sweet, so we just enjoy them. I don’t think I could deal with more than the two I have though. LOL!
