Star's Turn

Spitty has hinted rather pointedly that it's time for Star to get a post of just her. Ok Spitty, just because we love you, you get your wish.

I don't have a lot of recent pictures of Star, well I don't have a lot of recent pictures of either of them, but I have more of Leo because he's such a goofball. And Star, well, she's having a bout with her seasonal allergy.

The coconut oil did a good job with small outbreaks and keeping her soft and fluffy, but when the heat comes on, it's just too much for poor coconut oil to keep at bay. So she got a rash and licked off a lot of her fur, especially on her belly and bum.

I do have these few pictures of her that shows a little of her favorite obsession: hair. When the hair dryer comes out, Leo takes off. Star hangs out because she knows there's wet hair somewhere and there's nothing she loves more than rubbing her head in wet hair.

I'm keeping an eye on this stuff until the wet hair shows up.
 
 

She's hidden the best end of the brush on me.. but I'll get it later, and I'll rub it all over my face and bite the bristles..
 
 

Until then though, I'll just curl up for sweet dreams about rolling around in wet hair.. purrrr


I love how her back foot is over her head in the last shot, what a silly girl I have.

Hanging out

I think Star and Leo are getting along a little bit better because they know how sad we are lately. It's funny, but I think they've even been playing together a few times. At first I thought they were fighting, but there was no hissing, no growls, no smacky paws either, just chase. First one chases the other, then the other way around. It's cute, and I sure hope it's progress in their relationship.


Leo loves his cat tree, which I've still not gotten around to fixing. He really has the carpet on it shredded and the rest is covered with his fur. He jumps around on it, shaking it wildly, thank goodness it's pressed to the ceiling!

He's always hanging on and off of it.

I get a unique perspective from here.
 
 

Oh hi, I see you have a unique perspective of me too!
 
 

I can keep an eye on pretty much everything, and everyone, from here.
 
 

Allow me to give you kitty kissy eyes from here.
 
 

Oh, look out, now I gotta watch the squirrels outside the window. Bye!
 
 
Hope you all get to spend some time just hanging out this weekend.

Two for Tuesday

Sometime in the last few weeks we had one last sort of nice day. It wasn't warm, but it was nice enough to leave the door open for the kitties for a little while. They took full advantage, including sharing the space.

I think the ebil squirrel was trotting around tormenting the kitties.. or possibly the bouncy bunnies, but I'm betting on the squirrel because he loves to get the kitties all riled up and then laugh at them as he saunters off with his tail swishing happily.

Leo: I know he's out there...
Star: Keep your eyes peeled, he'll be by soon..



Leo: Is he under the car?
Star: I don't see him yet...
 
 

Star: Let me get a different vantage..
Leo: Anything?
Star: Nope.
 
 

Leo: There!
Star: I see him!
 
 

Star: Come closer you jokester in a fur suit, it's lunch time!
Leo: Yeah, come here! ..lunch time? Are you sure? I think it's closer to dinner..
Star: Sigh.. Leo, you're a goober.

Mancat Monday

Happy Veteran's Day to our friends who have served.


I wanted to make sure everyone knew that Sir Moose-a-lot was fine. No, he won't be coming to live with us as some have suggested. He was my dad's buddy, but he loves my mother too. I think perhaps it didn't sound like mom was there, but my parents had just celebrated their 50th anniversary in June, still very much in love, soul mates and best friends.

My sister and brother in law pretty much moved in there to help take care of my dad and mom, and are staying there still for my mom. Moose has decided that my brother in laws lap isn't so bad and sits on him some now. Moose and my mom are being very well cared for.

We all very much appreciate all the comments, prayers, purrs and love you've been sending our way. We're doing our best. And I'm going to try to post a few blogs this week. I have several good pictures I want to share.


For Mancat Monday, Leo has been doing his patented Dangle again. On his tree this time, the tree that is rapidly getting very ratty.. I wish we had not put it in such a hard to access corner.

Just hangin' out on my tree..
 
 

Hey Princess Hissyface, see me on my tree?
 
 

Too bad you still won't get up here on the top shelf! Bwahaha!
 
 

Hey, you sure do zoom fast! Where you going?
 
 

Wherever you're going, it sure ain't up here!
 
 

Hey, is that my singing birdie toy?
 
 

I can see the real birdies from here!
 
 

Hey Star, I'm on your shelf now! Hee hee Silly Princess Hissyface, I own this whole thing now!

Thank You and Blog For Peace

Sir Moose-a-lot and I would like to thank all of you for your kind words, thoughts, and prayers on the loss of our daddy. We are deeply sad as I'm sure you can imagine. But good friends and encouraging words do make a difference, so thank you again.


We're going to try to get back to reading and commenting soon, and posting, but we'll probably be intermittent for a while. I know you all will understand.


I didn't want to let blog for peace to pass without mentioning it, so I'm using last years badges.
