Staycationing can be fun ~ Day 3

A note from Rigby:


Linus and I are having lots of fun on our staycation.
This morning we played hide and seek. That's Linus hiding behind Mommy's plant.














I hid in the condo but Linus found me right away.


Mommy got us a pinata as a surprise. We couldn't reach that high with the big sticks she gave us so we couldn't break it open.





<---
Then we went inside and Mommy showed us pictures of a cat she used to have. She said we are her "replacement cats."

We don't know what that means.





















After all that running around and looking at pictures, we were really hot. Mommy told us to play by the snowman to get cool. We thought we already were "cool cats."






I hope you liked following us around on Day 3 of our staycation. Linus and I are glad you visited us.

Mommy said she has to get ready for Ruby Tuesday now.

One more about the cats =^. .^ =

My daughter thinks I take way too many photos of these cats. But I can't help myself. I spend an awful lot of time with them, and they are fairly easy to capture on camera.

It's blurry, but you can see the brotherly resemblance pretty well in this picture.

It was cl-awful

I know, I know, another cat story. But the felines provide me with so much blog fodder!

In the early morning hours on Monday (about 2 a.m.) Ralph woke up with a start.
"What the --- ?" he exclaimed (or words to that effect).

What had happened was Rigby (Cat Two for those keeping score) had just playfully scratched the bridge of Ralph's nose, enough to make it bleed quite a bit and wake him up.
I turned on the light, and blood was dripping into the corner of Ralph's left eye. Yuck.
Grab tissues! Run to bathroom sink for water! Emergency!
Ol' Rigby was out of there. He skedaddled.

We cleaned up the mess, and I shut the door to keep out all felines. Needless to say, we've closed the door firmly every night since then.
Sorry cats, we can't let you back in until we get you to a groomer to get those claws clipped.

They need to be bathed and have their nails clipped, but I am not going to do that. It's not one of my jobs.

Cupboard cat

Here's Linus this morning in the (almost bare) pantry. ----->

He's probably thinking: "Garbanzo beans? Unsalted peanuts?? Yuck!"
Where are those catnip treats she gives us? Or those salmon-flavored crunchies? I'm hungry."




<----- And here's me trying to find something to give him to eat.


Methinks it's time for a trip to the grocery store.

Morning playtime, kitty style

This morning Ralph called me in to see Rigby silhouetted behind the drape. I love the ears.
The cat likes sniffing around the Christmas cactus. Actually he sniffs everything in the house!

And this is what happens when you don't supervise kitties with your plants:

Does he look guilty? At least when the plant fell off the windowsill it didn't land upside down. Don't need to be cleaning up potting soil. I've got better things to do with my time.

Ah, pets. Always available to supply us bloggers with fresh post ideas.

CATS ...
Could be an acronym for "Can Always take Time to Sleep"

Q. What is a cat's favorite color?


A. PURR-PLE


~ Have a great Friday!

I thought today's Garfield strip was timely, since just the other day I was writing about "almost corn," as our son's friend likes to describe school cafeteria-style corn.
I admit it. I love Garfield.
