A Plethora of Presents: Fashionable Christmas Felines!

by

The cats are still waiting for their Secret Paws gift to arrive (so there are still some gifts to unwrap!) but so far their favorite seems to be a festive sweater their aunt (a veterinarian) gave the kitties! Apparently a talented vet tech at her work makes them!

Frodo loved its cozy warmth!

Even Amarula seemed to tolerate it!

AMARULA: Christmas sweaters?! I’m against them (although I guess I can admit it is comfy…but don’t tell anyone I said that!)

ZULU: Naturally, I wear it best! Hope everybody had great holidays!

Time For My Human to Die: I’ve Been Antlered!

by

AMARULA: Trust me, this is one reindeer Santa does not want pulling his sleigh!

AMARULA: Why me!? Surely this qualifies as animal abuse!

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

Week 33: December 23, 2016

  1. I still need to find where the human is hiding Frodo and Zulu’s presents so I can change the gift tag on them and label them as mine before Christmas.
  2. My favorite episode of Seinfeld is Festivus For the Rest of Us! Though I love airing my grievances any time of year!
  3. What I really would like for Christmas is: My two front teeth. Seriously. Not joking. When the human “rescued” me off the streets as a stray (she insists on calling it a rescue. I prefer to call it “catnapping”) she took me to the dentist. I went in with four canines and woke up with only one (apparently my teeth were pretty bad)! And I didn’t even get any money from the tooth fairy!
  4. My favourite part of Christmastime is trying to bring down that darn tree (usually at about 3 AM!) Timbeeeeeeeeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!!

 

Monday Madness: The Cats Play Musical Boxes!

by

How do you amuse yourself when it turns cold outside if you’re a feline? Musical boxes, of course!

It started with Zulu, who clearly found bliss in his box!

Then Frodo claimed a box…

Amarula got jealous that they were having fun without her…

So Amarula kicked Zulu out and claimed a box! Now I have to order something else from Amazon so everyone can have their own box!

And we are doing the Awww Monday Blog hop from Comedyplus!

 

 

 

Amarula is Famous! Book Release: Makin’ Biscuits – Weird Cat Habits and the Even Weirder Habits of the Humans Who Love Them

by

 

AMARULA: Yes that’s right dear readers! I’m packing my bags and heading to Hollywood, or maybe Washington or Timbuktu ….where do famous cats go?? Anyway it doesn’t matter because I have written what is sure to be a bestselling book!


AMARULA: What do you think? Should I use this photo on the book cover and promotional tour? It shows the tormented genius that all brilliant authors have. It makes me look intellectual and angry (my signature look) all at the same time.

FRODO: You wrote a book!?! Oh I knew you could do it Big Sis! You are just so smart! Can I get a copy? Can I get an autograph?

ZULU: No No NO! Amarula did not write a book! Cat blogger Deborah Barnes (of Zee & Zoey’s Cat Chronicles) wrote the book. It is her big Book Release! It explores all our wonderful feline habits that are, for some reason, often indecipherable to humans! Amarula is just mentioned a couple of times — and so are you and I for that matter Frodo!

AMARULA: Well surely I can at least highlight where I am mentioned (in essence, the best part of the book). I am mentioned in: Things That Go Bump in the Night – page 97; Rules of the House – page 131; and The Unexpected in Life – page 207. These snippets tell how Zulu and I moved to Canada from South Africa, the strange way the human has to feed Frodo by throwing dry food up the stairs, and how I once dragged her winter boot up the stairs in the middle of the night and she thought it was an intruder (I am so amusing!). I am even mentioned in the press release (check it out here)! As I am pretty much the star of the book, it’s sure to be a bestseller!

ZULU: No No NO! You are not the star of the book! Every single cat mentioned in the book is a star! Including, I would like to emphasize, Frodo and I! I think it’s going to be a hit!  I’ve seen Mom reading it and she can’t stop laughing, so she must be enjoying it! Some of her favorite cat bloggers, like 15 and Meowing are also in it!

FRODO: So I’m confused… do I or do I not get an autograph from Amarula?

It’s true! The trio share a few stories in this funny book that any cat lover is sure to enjoy! You can check out the details here.
