What a Doll!

Humans can be so dumb, and that includes our Mamma sometimes. Don't b'lieve us? Mamma was in High School before she realized Stevie Wonder is blind... and then she announced it as if it should have been a surprise to everyone. She also only recently found out Raisin Bran Cereal is not made of raisins and unfrosted corn flakes. And, again, announced it as if it should be a surprise to everyone. Then there's this...

Some of the humans has been playin' a little game called "meme" on their blogs. Miss Anne said in hers how much she loves her ragdoll cat Flopsy. So our Mamma just starts talkin' all 'bout this little ragdoll she gots named Margetdoll. That's 'cause Mamma thought Miss Anne was sayin' Flopsy is a little ragdoll that looks like a cat. Like maybe she gots thread whiskers an' button eyes, an' maybe her tail is sewed on.

Ragdoll cats is a real breed. If there was a ragdoll dogs, Mamma probably would've known that. Anyway, I have drawed a picture of what I think Flopsy looks like.



I don't think it's too bad, considerin' I don't have opposable thumbs. But I don't know if it really looks anything like the real Flopsy. And that's the point here... Flopsy is a real cat.

Learn from Mamma's mistakes. Somebody should.

Taking Care of Mamma

Our Mamma, she has been sick this week. 'Bout maybe two months ago she quited smokin', but she still got Bronchitis just like every year. The hospital doctor said it'll take maybe somethin' like six years for her lungs to get all healed up. She had chills an' fever an' the achies. She's still not all better, but some of that is gone now... like the fever an' chills. An' some of the achies.

So I been takin' care of her. Except for when I wasn't. Well, she smelled sick all week! Not like yerpy sick... just sick. Dogs can smell it, y'know. Sick... fear... dinner... we can smell it all.

At least I'm not as bad as some, like Teddy. 'Bout two, maybe three, days ago he decided Mamma must not be an Alpha anymore 'cause she's all sick an' weak. That was pretty stupid. Daddy is still an Alpha, an' Mamma outranks even him, so she's like maybe an über-Alpha. That's like Lifetime Alpha Cannot Be Revoked No Matter What.

Maybe when she gets well she'll celebrate by takin' me to the park!

Whelpday on the Way

It's almost time for my whelpday! Y'nose... the day I got whelped. I think humans call it a "birthday". Well it's almost time for mine! Mamma says I musta been whelped somewhere around Thanksgiving. If you wanna bring me any presents or anything, I would like some new toys. We have plenty of treats around here, but every time I get a new toy I chew it up. If you can find me one with feets, I would really like that. I've had a stuffed squirrel, possum, duck, and pheasant, and I always chew the feets off of them first.
