Mancat Monday: Worship Me!

It’s a Monday and Zulu likes starting off the week by being admired!

ZULU: Am I good-looking or what?

ZULU: Louder I can’t hear you!

ZULU: I belong in the spotlight!

ZULU: It’s hard sometimes to be so good looking…..

AMARULA: Oh Brother! I think I just threw up a little!

ZULU: Quiet Amarula! You’re just jealous!

Faint-Worthy Good News For Frodo, Zulu and Amarula!

 

YEAH! Did you hear the news?! We are proud to announce that we are finalists in the Best Pet Humor Blog category in the 2018 BlogPaws Nose-to-Nose Pet Blogging and Social Media Awards. We are honored to be in such esteemed company as Valentine’s blog Noir Kitty Mews, as well as The Rufus Files and A Dog Walks Into A Bar.  A special thank you goes out to Bear and his momma who nominated us!

The cats’ reaction to the news was in line with what you have come to expect:

Frodo promptly fainted and upon revival shouted out his glee to the whole world…

FRODO: Yahoooooooo! They like us, they really like us!! I love everybody!!

ZULU: Contact my agent! I want new head shots! Oh Yes! I am ready for my close up!

ZULU: Wait a minute…I wonder how many hours of grooming that gives me to prepare before the red carpet!? Better get started!

And Amarula was all Tortie:

AMARULA: Nominated? Humor, you say? Do they mean funny or funny-looking cause with Frodo and Zulu one can’t be sure! But go ahead, you may kiss my paw.

AMARULA: Now be off so I may dream of my acceptance speech.

Here are Amarula’s Friendly Fill-Ins hosted by 15andmeowing and McGuffy’s Reader!

  1. I am the _________________ in my family. I can’t answer that question cause family implies that I am in some way related to Frodo the Creamsicle Cretin and Zulu the Dunderheaded Dandy. We Torties are a world apart!
  2. I have _see above_ sibling(s).
  3. I am looking forward to patrolling the snowless (thank God) streets once again and reminding the neighborhood cats who’s boss this Spring.
  4. The first sign of Spring this year was the human pulling out that insipid and undignified, bell-strewn Birdsafe collar she makes me wear to protect the birds when I go outside. If she tries to put that on me again the birds won’t be the only ones who need protection!

 

(Birdbesafe collar–they look funny but they seem to work!)

In the Doghouse: Frodo Goes For A Midnight Snack

THE HUMAN: Alright, which one of you cats got into the fridge when I left the door open and knocked the water bottle to the floor?

ZULU: Not me! I’m too busy keeping my nails sharp in case Amarula is in one of her “moods”

AMARULA: Please! I don’t snack! I have to keep my figure looking good for all my male cat fans like Bear and Veikko and so many many more! Though I may have told a certain orange menace that you love when food falls out of the fridge onto the floor cause it makes it easier for you to find it! Mwhaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!

THE HUMAN: Frodo, was it you?

FRODO: No way mom! Not me!

THE HUMAN: Really, cause the evidence seems pretty damning!

FRODO: Maybe if I don’t make eye contact she won’t notice me!

FRODO: Woo Hoo, I’m king of the world! I can practically see the whole house from here!

FRODO: Look at all the food choices! Why do I only get tuna flavored dry or wet food?

FRODO: Oh oh! How do I get down from here?

Three’s Company!?

ZULU: Wake up Frodo sleepyhead. Time to get this Friday started!

ZULU: What the heck!!?? You won’t believe this Frodo but Amarula actually slept beside us all night! That’s a first!

AMARULA: WTF?! My head is groggy. Where am I?! I knew I had too much catnip last night!

FRODO: YEAH!! We are all together! This is the best morning ever!!

AMARULA: Oh Brother! Kill me now!

AMARULA: I can’t believe I woke up beside you idiots! I will never live this down!

ZULU: Pssssst Frodo, I bet Amarula would LOVE one of your famous Good Morning Wake-Up Hugs!!

AMARULA: I’m otta here!

Here are Amarula’s Friendly Fill-Ins hosted by 15andmeowing and McGuffy’s Reader!

  1. When I am nervous, I beat up Frodo and/or Zulu.
  2. When I an angry, I see above
    3. Today, I know for sure see above.
  3. For St. Patrick’s day, I know the human will try to put me in a ridiculous outfit!

TOLD YOU SO!!!

 

 

Frodo Makes A Run For It (again)!

FRODO: I don’t know why mom won’t give us supervised outdoor time in the winter like she does in the summer. Luckily I was able to escape onto the porch when she took out the garbage! It’s not so bad out here. Although I can kinda see why Amarula doesn’t like this white stuff…it is quite chilly….

FRODO: OK, I’m ready to come in now! Open up!

FRODO: Helloooooooo?!?! Anybody home?

FRODO: MOM?! Hurry up and open the door! Or your favorite creamsicle is gonna become a CreamICICLE!

Cat Fight: Who Gets The Window Seat?!

FRODO: Hey big brother, can I please have the window seat now? You’ve had it for hours and mom says we should share!

ZULU: Yeah, yeah in a minute. You know how important it is for me to get sun and work on my tan! The ladies love me with a tan! One more minute!

FRODO: How long is a minute again?

ZULU: About two hours.

FRODO: Something about that just seems wrong….I don’t think you’re ever going to let me have the window seat…

FRODO: OUT ZULU! It’s my turn now! I have been practicing my assertiveness training.

ZULU: Are you sure you want to mess with me little brother?

FRODO: Hear me ROAR!

ZULU: You asked for it!

ZULU: Got ya!

FRODO: Hey no tickling! No fair, no fair!

FRODO: Uncle! Uncle!

ZULU: Oh oh it’s mom! Nothing happening here mom! I was just making room for my best pal and brother Frodo!

FRODO: You’re the best brother in the whole world Zulu!

ZULU: I know, I know

Amarula Steals The Spotlight

AMARULA: Oh my! The spotlight on little old me! I’m honored!

AMARULA: Oh, who’s kidding who?! We all know I was born to steal the spotlight!

Here are Amarula’s Friendly Fill-Ins hosted by 15andmeowing and McGuffy’s Reader!

  1. My favorite Dr. Seuss book is _The Cat in The Hat of course. We torties are so lucky that we look good in everything, including hats! Imagine a dog trying to wear a hat! Never! They would look ridiculous. Unlike us felines, they lack the dignity and elegant bone structure to carry it off!
  2. The most interesting person I have ever met is I will give you a clue…a see her every time I look in the mirror!
  3. Besides books by Dr. Seuss, my favorite book as a child was though I have not actually read it yet, I assume I would love 101 Dalmatians. Apparently, Cruella De Vil takes a bunch of Dalmatian dogs to make a coat. It sounds marvelous! I can’t think of a better use for a canine!
  4. Lately, I have been working on my memoirs. I plan to call it: A Feline Opines: The Sage Musings of A Misunderstood Mouser. Send money now for your autographed copy!
