Dry Ground, Julie Metz and Perfection: A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal

Just need to step over this grass...don't know if it was cut this week...keeps poking up and scratching my legs. Haven't got much protection since that last shave, but its starting to grow back. Not far now, nearly up to the washing line. Creep along this stone edge and hey...here we are. Mmm, just need to sniff out a little nice patch. here...no, went there yesterday. Sniff, sniff..this will do, dry and soft earth. Okay knickers down and sit...ah that feels good. Lets have a look and see what we've got...mmm...not too bad, just need to cover it up. Done. Shake the last bits of garden out of my paw and back to a cozy spot to sleep. Actually, I think I'll have a little read from 'Perfection: A Memoir of Betrayal and Renewal by Julie Metz, before I go to sleep.

The Boy Who Was Raised As a Dog, Bruce D Perry and Chicken for Dinner

It's raining today. Well, it is now. First thing this morning it was okay. I thought Mum and Dad would have longer in bed as it's Sunday. Mum got up to make tea and give us breakfast. Hettie gobbled something down and then shot outside. I thought I would have a bit of time curled up on the bed...but no, they were both up like a shot and getting dressed. Heading off to Balmain apparently to have breakfast. 

So now it is raining. The wet drops of water are cold. I don't feel them at first because my coat is so thick. Eventually though the water starts to make its way down to my skin and by then its all too late and I look so tatty. I have to spend so much time with my legs up around my neck trying to dry my bits and my coat. You see when you are a high class pussy cat there are standards of beauty that you have to comply with. Because I'm purrfect I have to be always looking good.

I think I can smell chicken in the oven. Mmm...its good. If I hang around long enough and make a fuss I just might get some.

Not Without Hope...Cold Winter's and Nick Schuyler

I love my Mum. I love my Mum all the time. She is so good to us. I know she is good and I know that she loves me and Hettie. I think that Hettie needs to keep her nose out a bit more and let me have all the love and warmth. Loving Mum is warm coz we snuggle up in the bed on Saturday and Sunday mornings and in the evening when she watches the picture box. I just stretch out and relax and soak up all the love and warmth. Us pussycats need that warmth during these cold winter nights, especially when you are left outside all day. Its hard work being a little cat trying to keep warm, so I deserve a big long rest in the evenings after dinner. That Nick Schuyler thinks he had it all tough looking all sorrowful on the TV...just because he got caught in deep water. He did loose his friends though and I'm really sorry about that..but people don't realise how tough it is being a cat!

Dr.Mehmet Oz and a lack of Sun

Not too happy this weekend. Not much sun. Not even a little place to sit and soak up some warmth. I sat outside at the corner of the house this afternoon and called out. Just called out to anyone, but not one single person came and got me. Not happy today! And then there is that guy Dr. Mehmet OZ talking about loosing weight. Why can't he talk about keeping warm? Thats one reason we have a little extra in winter...to keep warm. Guess he's not as clever as he thinks if he doesn't know that.

The Sun, Twilight and Stephenie Meyer

It's that time of year. Rather than skulk away into the shade to keep cool Hettie is out hunting every little bit of sun that she can find. She keeps moving around the garden to follow the sun and top up her tan. The tall trees at the back mean that the sun struggles to penetrate at times and only small slivers of sun shine their light onto the lawn. So Hettie moves like a pinball from one spot to the other. I think us girls need to be careful. I'm not sure the sun is doing us any good. I'm happy to stay white and safe. So I'm just going to curl up with another Stephenie Meyer and read my new Twilight book.
