Keep the heat at bay…

It was a miserable few days for me…

Yeah – the fur-less creatures’ central air conditioning went out – it was in the high 90’s and very humid – actually the air was so hot and still (both inside and out) that it took your breath away.

Good slaves that they are, they put a fan on the floor for me to lay in front of until the repair man could get the needed parts and repair the central air conditioning.

Angel brushed me with her Furminator (C) brush to help get rid of the excess loose fur and help keep me cooler.

See, it’s hard for a cat to eliminate the heat – we are often in danger of overheating and getting sick.  In the wild we would look for a cave or a hole deep under something where the air is cooler.

That’s because we only sweat through our paw pads and nose leather.  You may see us panting hard – this is to help cool our bodies down so we don’t overheat.

I didn’t eat much while it was so hot and muggy – that would have meant more heat generated by my body while it was processing my food.  But I did lap up a lot of water.

We’ve only just begun the summer months – so please keep your dear furry companions in mind and allow them a means to cool off. 

 Heat stroke is no joking matter – for pets or humans!

Cat’s Rule!

Sometimes I like to be a pest.

Take this morning for instance… Angel was at her desk typing and I jumped up to take a look at the birds in the feeders, then plopped my furry little behind on the papers she was trying to read.

Then, I stuck my tail in her glass of milk.

Fun!

To top it all off – she left her pack of gum laying in the “in box” so I swiped several out and played chase with the sticks of gum.

She screeched and yelled for Hulk to come in and do something with me.

Hahaha – I like to shake things up once in a while!

Happy Father’s Day!

I was feeling down because I don’t remember much about my mother and next to nothing about my father.

 

Since I was deaf from birth, chances are very likely I was kicked out of my family as a little kitten – Mother Nature relies on “survival of the fittest” and in Mother Nature, a deaf stray cat doesn’t stand much of a chance.

 

Happy Father's Day!

Happy Father's Day!

 

Angel told me that a father was a man who, among other things:

·     takes care of you

·     helps to teach right from wrong

·     gives treats

·     is there to dispense a pat on the head when you’re scared

·     provides food for sustenance

·     offers a dry, warm bed to help replenish energy

 

Well, if this is what a father does, then Hulk is my father.  We may not be of the same species (cats are slightly superior) but he is my father in the true sense of the word.

 

So in that respect, Happy Father’s Day to the whiskered one – my father, Hulk!

Snarly cat

Tired from my walk
Tired from my walk

Do you see what I have to put up with?   At any time of the day – no matter what I am doing, a camera can be shoved in front of my face.

No dignity.

Sometimes, I’m tired and just want to relax.  Not be miss celebrity with her fur smooth and a happy look on my face.

I know I’m cute and all, but come on, there is a limit to my patience…and after my walk is NOT the time I want to be “on”.

Take this photo for instance.  Not my best look.  I actually feel a little snarly here.  Angel and I just got back from a looong walk, I haven’t had my fur brushed yet and the treats were slow in coming.

Now, I ask you, is that any way to treat a royal cat???
