Finally, my present is revealed!

I hate to admit it, but we were not able to get into the mystery package while the Mommy was at work. But she FINALLY came to her senses and opened it up! 

A box! A cardboard box! That was the familiar smell this whole time! The Mommy got us a box? 

But why is it so flat? Look, Marzi thinks it's his box. But it's not. It's mine.

Why are there so many pieces of cardboard inside the box? Marzi thinks he can figure it out what it's all about. But the ball is a distraction for him. Between the cardboard and the ball, he doesn't get anywhere. So the Mommy had to help. Again.

Look what it turned into! A BIG box! Big enough for two. But as you can see, Mama thinks she is the queen of the box. She hogged it before anyone else had a chance to get inside. How rude. 

She really took her time... Look how sneaky she thinks she is. Although, you can hardly see her in there... It does seem like a good hiding spot for her... Hurry up, Mama! Let me have my turn.

Aww, man! What gives? I missed my chance and Marzi is heading in! THE NERVE!

Why does this happen to me? Always last. For everything! I get the feeling that I'm going to be waiting awhile... How can I get him out of there so I can have my turn?

There's no way in through the back on this thing. Darn! Maybe I'll give his tail a chomp. That'll show him.

 

No chimney or anything either?! I don't think he even knows I'm up here! Nothing I do is working and I'm running out of ideas here...

Will I EVER get my turn???

   

Still WAITING...

Yet ANOTHER day has passed and this is what I wake up to today!

Mommy... This package isn't going to open itself you know!

Maybe Marzi can help me get this package open to see what's inside. That will show the Mommy a lesson for taking so long to open MY package! She will come home today and realize that she should not make me wait so long for presents. Do you smell that? What IS that smell??? It's so familiar... I just can't put my paw on it. 

We will get this open if it's the last thing we do! If we do, you will have to give your bestest innocent face to the Mommy when she finds out. You better practice! 

There's no way she can stay mad at us. Good one, Marzi! With your face and my brains, think of all the possibilities! 

STAY TUNED to see if we succeed on our mission. Paws crossed. 

What could it BE???

So, guess what? I saw that a package came in the mail and I am DYING to know what it could be. The Mommy is taking forever to open it! I hope it's for me. There's no reason why it wouldn't be for me, right? Exactly!

Here are the clues I have so far:

- It is in a white envelope

- It is BIG

- It is square shaped

- It is light. Very light!

- It has a very familiar scent... I don't think that it is noms... But I'm finding the scent is... Irresistible.

WHAT COULD IT BE?

A Highlight to my Week

In case you haven't read or heard, I had a little accident this week with my ear. It's really no big whoop. It's not bothering me at all now and it's not even itchy anymore. Mommy's been saying that it looks better each day. I will have to take her word for it, because I can't see it for myself. 

I also decided it was a good idea to go off the strike this week. I thought that since I already had the Mommy supplying the sympathy noms, that I could maximize the noms. First, I'd have to show her how tough I am being about the whole incident. And secondly, I'd have to be extra lovey. Get close up with the snuggles to remind her of the owwie on my ear. Let me tell you, it really worked. I think we've gone through a whole pack this week. 

The highlight of my week... An award from the Colehaus Cats!!!

Isn't that so nice of them? It makes me happy to hear them say that my blog ramblings bring them joy! Thanks a lot for giving us the award! As part of accepting the award, I need to tell you 7 things about myself that you may not know already. 

1. It probably looks like I don't have whiskers, but I do. They are just very short, and sometimes curly too. 

2. My favorite color of whiskers is WHITE. 

3. I have never had a sunburn. Even when I lay in the sun all day I don't get a sunburn.

4. I don't like that my Dad (Marzi) doesn't cover up his... you know... after he uses the litter box. Even I learned how to do that when I JUST learned how to walk! 

5. Sometimes when I snuggle my Dad I lick his furs and end up getting a hairball in my throat. 

6. I think I have an eating disorder because I never get full.

7. The Mommy asks me every morning if I made coffee for her, but I don't know how to. I'm hoping to learn how to make her coffee one day.

 Now to give the award to some of my other furiends.

The Poupounette- A VERY good looking bunch of critters.

George Online Cat- I am always learning and laughing when I read his blog.

Daisy the Curly Cat- Daisy and Harley are very cool! I think I would like to play with them one day.

Hannah and Lucy- One of them just HAPPENS to have my fave color whiskers...

The Island Cats- They always brighten our day with their sweet words.

MAMA CAT GONE WILD

What she does once Henry and Marzipan aren't around....

And the tune playing inside her head is...

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it

I'm about to lose control and I think I like it

I'm so excited and I just can't hide it

And I know I know I know I know I know I want you

My Ouchie

Whatever you do, don't click to zoomify the picture below if you are SQUEAMISH like the Mommy is.

I don't remember how it happened, all I know is that it was ITCHY all of a sudden on my ear. So I shook my head to get rid of the itchy feeling and that is when the Mommy saw the blood drops. There were lots of them. It was kind of cool! It didn't hurt very much at all, it was just itchy. I tried to convince the Mommy that I was fine, but she is purranoid when it comes to this kind of thing. 

The best part about getting the ouchie was all of the cuddles and the noms! 

Sorry Marzi, but you don't have the ouchie so you don't get as many noms as I do. 

As you can probably tell, Marzi was not impressed. MOL! And as you can see, I am feeling as good as new! More noms, please!

I'm going on strike!

Hi everybody. I am a little crabby today.

I was very surprised to learn that some of my other furiends actually get NOMS when they do tricks for their humans. Here I am busting out my most impressive jumps and fetching the ball and all that, and in return I'm getting "Good boy" or "That's cute" or "Aww". I told the Mommy about what I've seen on the internet. She tried to convince me that it is better to do tricks not expecting the noms in return, but I'm not falling for that. Until I start getting some treats for my tricks, I'm going on strike!

I have an iPhone now

I kind of have to share it with the Mommy. She takes it to work with her during the week and whenever she goes out she takes it too... But other than that it's mostly all mine.

Do you how many things you can do on an iPhone? A LOT! At least this is what I have heard. I haven't been able to get it to work well on my own. It's the touch screen that I can't get used to. I'm all paw!

I heard a sound, was that somebody phoning? 

They will call back, right?

Just in case you did not know... Today is BLACK CAT APPRECIATION DAY! I will be extra nice to Mama cat today. But only today. Back to normal tomorrow.

Can I get some PRIVACY?

Silly Saturday

As you can see, Marzipan REALLY likes the fuzzy blanket!

Thankful Thursday

Here are three things:

My ball that bounces

Flowers (that I like to eat)

When the sun is shining on me

Am I all growed up now?

Hi everybody!

I have been on what you call a hiatus. For my birthday I partied pretty hard and needed some time to recover. I knew you would understand because I will only turn one once! Right?

Thank you for ALL of the birthday wishes that you gave me! That was really nice. I do not feel much different since turning 1 years old. My Mommy keeps telling me how I look all growed up now. But then she still calls me "baby" all the time. Why does she do that? She can't make up her mind.

What do you think? Do I look all growed up?

MIA - black Devon Rex

Henry was last seen at his birthday party on Monday, July 30th around 11 pm. He was at his residence with Marzipan, Mama cat and many others. Things grew out of control.  A witness has reported that they were all under the influence of the NIP and the JERKY.

These pictures were taken at his birthday party

It is likely that he is still recovering from his birthday festivities...

He should be back to his blogging very soon.
