Top Shelf All The Way

So did anyone make it to the upper shelf on the new cat tree? See for yourself!


Oh yeah, I remember noticing this shelf when I was up here before.
 
 

I don't know if I want to try it though. Let me sit and think for a moment..
 
 

Well that was a no brainer! hee hee!
 
 

Is that all that's holding this thing upright? Think it'll take punishment?
 
 

I don't always sit on the top shelf, but when I do, I glare at the camera.
 
 

I can't believe I used to be stuck down there.. Sheesh



Yay, Leo made it to the top! I give him another day to discover the top of the cabinet.
Star still has not made it to the top shelf. She doesn't seem interested at all. She knows it's there, just doesn't want to bother with it since she can see everything she wants to from the middle shelf. (I know you can't see it, but there is a lower shelf, it's just lower than the edge of the bed.)

Leo In The Tree

Did you think we were never going to get around to Leo's turn in the new cat tree? Me too!

After Star vacated it in favor of Twin 1's hair everyone dispersed. It was beginning to look like no kitty was going to want to get in the new tree! Then all the sudden, Leo came over for an inspection!

Hmm, this looks new..



It smells vaguely of Star. That could be a problem..



I don't know, this is kinda high..
 
Mom note: Leo still doesn't realize that he's a big kitty and perfectly capable of leaping great distances! When he does it without thinking, he's fine, but if he stops, he thinks he cant do it! 
 
 
 

Hey, that curtainy thing is open! I bet I could see out really well from on this thing!
 
Leo Note: Don't mention the curtainy thing to mom.. she's still ticked that she doesn't have window trim and new curtains up yet..
 
 
 

Ok, maybe if I look at this from another angle..



Made it!!! And look! There's another seat up there!
 
 

I was right, I can see out good from here!



Oh boy oh boy oh boy! I can see really far!
 
 

Oh! What was that??
 
 

I gotta go on tippy toes! I think that was a flying rat!
 
 

Yeah, I think I've seen enough now.
 
 

I can see good stuff from down here too anyway. Right?
 
 
And that was his whole first experience with the tree. What a goober boy. He only went on the one shelf! Will he, or Star, ever go up to the next place?? Or even the top of the cabinet that we cleared off JUST FOR THEM?? I guess we'll see another day..



Psst, guess what's still available?

Wench Star is the roughest, toughest pirate girl there ever was!

So raise your Jolly PurRoger and join us on the high seas!

A Post Post!

Way back on the 10th I posted pictures of Star in Twin 1's hair. But since I was telling how Star loves everything about Twin 1, or TLO as Star calls her (The Loud One) I didn't tell the whole story of the hair sniffin' that day.

We had purchased a new kitty tree some time back, but it was too tall for our ceilings. Greg finally had some time that day to cut down two sections so it would fit in and we put it up. I had the camera at the ready to see which kitty would inspect it first! I was excited!

I was really surprised to see that it was Star who got up on it right away! Leo's the climber, the one who likes to be up as high as possible. But Star beat him! I was ready to start snapping away... And Twin 1 sabotaged my photo session!

Hmm, interesting. I think I could like this thing.
 
 

Almost as soon as Star got up there, TLO, who was sitting on the bed, called Star and then flopped her head down on the bed!
Twin 1: Hey Star, look!
Star: Oo! TLO hair! I remember that stuff!
 
 

Star: Oh yeah, I love this stuff! Huh? What's that mom? What tree?


Sigh... I had to wait to get good kitty on the new tree shots..

Twinspection

In my previous post I showed Star sleeping on a pile of Twin 1's pillows and clothes:

She spent so much time there that Leo got curious. He kept stretching up to peek at her and see what all the fuss was about. Star was not about to give up her prime TLO (The Loud One, Star's name, and opinion, of Twin 1) but a girl does have to eat once in a while.

Leo took advantage of her need to feed and jumped up for his own inspection, or shall we say Twinspection. I missed getting a picture of him sticking his face so deep into the pile that he looked like a headless cat! I only managed to get one shot, as he was leaving...
I don't get what the big hair deal is...


Let's just say that he doesn't have Star's discerning tastes..


Star had her own Twinspection when the suitcase made another appearance.

I knew you were hiding this somewhere, it's about time you brought it back out for me to sit on!



'Scuse me, quick bath time.... See, this is the perfect spot for that!
 


Mmmm, I've got to sniff this thing all over. I've missed it's scent so! We can leave it right here from now on, right?
 
 

What do you mean she's taking it with her? Who said TLO could leave? I need my hair fix!


I don't know who told her she could leave, Star, but the brat caught a plane on Saturday outta town! I know she'll be back for vacation in October, but we miss her! Don't we Star?

Seriously though, we all appreciated that she came home to help out with her gramma and grampa (Sir Moose-a-lot's daddy and mommy, my parents) while grampa is going through his cancer/surgery/recovery here. Looks like he will be out of the hospital/rehab in about a week! And hopefully back on his feet and walking and golfing soon! He's got a great attitude and that really helps in recovery! And so do all the prayers and purrs you all have sent his way, so thank you again!

Twintastic

Before I get to today's post I wanted to thank everyone for the anniversary wishes yesterday! And for your encouragement about my dad, Sir Moose-a-lot's daddy! Good news is so important! And it made me feel good sharing it with you all! So thank you again!

Greg got me these for our anniversary, aren't they lovely??





On to the Twintastic post!

I talked recently about how Star is addicted to Twin 1's hair. And suitcase. And clothes. And basically anything that belongs to her.. As she's preparing to head back to Wyoming (BOOOOO) she's doing laundry. Her pillows and laundry piled up on a chair. Star sees this as the ultimate twintastic sniffable bed!
Oh it's mine mine mine... I'm just going to sink into my new favorite spot and stay here forever!
 
 

And then Twin 1 gave her another of her favorite treats.. A roll in the hair!
Oh TLO (The Loud One) hair! I love you so!
 
 

I bury my face in you.. I'm never coming out!
 
 

Seriously, this is awesome stuff! I should bottle it and sell it on ebay.. I'd be a gazillionair!



Somehow I don't think she'd agree to you cutting off her hair to bottle.... I could be wrong though!
