Mancat Monday - The Rudy Report

Hiya' kitties, It's me, the Rudester, with the Rudy report.
I have had some time to think about the whap that I gave Parker. Her booboo is getting better, but it still isn't very pretty. I really don't know what made me do it. But I do know this, whapping does not get you treats or cuddles or anything good. I've learned that it may be better to be a lover and not a fighter - I have asked Parker for her forgiveness and she has accepted. We may never be snuggle buddies, but we can live in peace. So that's my report - I am going to try and be nice to my siblings.
Now Mommy, may I have a treat?

Tattle Tail Tuesday - The Royal Deck

Mommy and I had a little argument about posting this photo. I won. She couldn't believe that Daddy brought a TV out to the deck so he could watch the Cubs play baseball and lay on the lounger and do guy things like drink beer and say bad words when the Cubs did not win. Diamond thought that it was great fun and we kitties wandered in and out all day. You can see me way in the background. Rudy tried to stay on Daddy's lap since he was still trying to suck up all of the sympathy in our three surrounding counties. Puff and Powder went between the deck and the kitchen where Mommy cooked a meatloaf, had a glass of wine and watched movies in between cooking. Mommy said that we look like a bunch of, well, I can't say what she said, but she suggested that we would not mix well with the royal family.

Fraidy Cat Friday - Rudy

*Update from Mommy* Your good thoughts, prayers and purrs were very strong and worked. Rudy is home with all of his toofies! He's groggy and grumpy and has a PINK bandage on his front leg. AND he's a very healthy boy according to all of his labs. We are all happy to have him home and there have been no hissy-spits from his siblings. We are going to rest this evening and keep an eye on our wonderful orange boy. Thanks from the bottom of my heart for your kind words. They made a stressed out Mommy feel a lot better!
Smooches from me - the Mommy!
This morning my brother Rudy-Toots is going to the VET to get his toofies cleaned. This means we have not had food or water since last night at 9:00. This means that we are kind of grumpy about not having any food or water. But what it really means is that we are hoping that Rudy does well and has no complications and that he doesn't have to lose any toofies. It also means that Mommy worries and will continue to worry 'till she hears he is done with his cleaning and awake. We know that there is a lot more serious things that other kitties are going through, but if you could send a good thought or two Rudy's way that all goes well and smooth, we sure would appreciate it.

I love you Rudy, even if you are a pain in my patootie sometimes!

Wordless Wednesday - Cozy

Freaky Friday! Hat Edition

Daddy made me wear his hat. Oh yeah, good times...NOT!

Hey Dad, the infamous Paw of Death works on humans too, ya' know! Diamond Doggy thinks he's stylin' in his hat. I didn't have the heart to tell him otherwise.

I don't know how the Cat In The Hat did it.

Thursday 13 Edition 4 - Silly "Pet" Names In My House

I'm sure that all of you cool kitties out there have nicknames that may make you blush a little. We here at Casa de Parker are no different. Mommy and Daddy delight in calling us all sorts of silly things. And there are usually reasons behind the namings. That being said, I had a meeting with my siblings and we have decided to bare all! The following are 13 silly "pet" names that we have had to endure over the years. All I ask of you is that if we ever meet in real life, you will never, ever, speak of this. 'Cause then, I'd have to hurt you! And as you can see from the above photo, I have just the paws and claws to do it!
