Thursday Thirteen #6


Some of you already know this, but for those that haven't heard yet: Mommy and Daddy are off to visit a meezer kitten this weekend and see about bringing it home. Now, some of us think they are crazy, but overall beans and kitties have been very supportive. Given the event, I thought the furballs and I would list the thirteen reasons why Mommy is getting a meezer:

1. None of us are "talkers." The furballs disagree with this one and claim to be talkers, but I've heard them. They don't hardly say a peep except for when Mommy is dishing up food, they are stalking a fly, they have control of the infamous ratty pink boa (and then it's more growl than talk) or they have gotten "lost" in another room and need to find where everyone is.
2. Daddy can't say "no" to her (except, strangely enough, about getting a stroller).
3. There's still two square inches of space left on the bed at night.
4. There are still some things left on the shelves that haven't been knocked over and/or broken.
5. The people who make Science Diet, Temptations and Fancy Feast need her to single-handedly keep them in business.
6. There is still at least one night each week that she doesn't wake up to the sound of yaking, crying or fighting.
7. She is still able to navigate the stairs even though we have tried everything in our power to be underfoot when she goes down them.
8. There's still one finger left to count with when she tries to keep track of us when we get to venture outside.
9. She's having a mid-life crisis and is trying to relive her youth when she had a meezer named Bogie.
10. Daddy got a raise at work and Mommy needs to spend the extra money before he realizes that he could get something.
11. Daddy wanted to name something "cha-ching" and we all had names.
12. The V-E-T needs a vacation home and someone has to pay for it.
13. Mommy and Daddy still have room in their heart to love another kitty.

Hahahaha... We think a New Kitty Cat would be a lovely addition to your fantastic family! I can't wait to here some news! And you know, we are laughin and laughin about all the reasons. Very excellent indeed. We especially like there are some things still not broken. Our Human wears shoes always. Today Jezebel threw at plate at her and it was shattered in a billion pieces!

Oh the crash noises!

Sending Our Love and Purrs and Hugs... Thanks for hangin in with us during our hectic move and crazy absent days!

Number 13 is by far the best reason!

Our Maw can relate. We single handedly are putting our vet's son through college.

I'm so happy for you! I think you will all really love a meezer kitten, we really are fun and active and very talkative and loyal. I think its important that if the humans had one in their past that they have another. Meowmy just loves having me around.

P.S. Is this little guy from Siamese Rescue? He's CUTE!

Awww, momma wishes your daddy would talk to our daddy because he won't let her get a meezer even though Ali & I are very friendly to other cats. We acted like we always knew each other when we first met.

I like reason #13 the very best. My Mommie wants to get a meezer too. She has had two of them before and loved them very much.

Is THAT KITTY him? The one in the TT photo? He's a cutie ...

Please remind your parents to check on the kitty's GENDER prior to naming ... Referencing, of course, the Furball debacle at the V-E-T ...

Has your daddy seen the Jeep Rubicon strollers? They're mighty cool with four-wheelin' type wheels (even though there are only three wheels). Mom told us that they're furry neat-o, but we STILL don't get one 'cuz the kids in the neighborhood go to her school and they'd never leave us alone on stroles. Bah!
