Femme Friday

Friends,
I've been hatted! My friends Andy and Sammy (and their mom, Judi) at Sammy and Andy's Place have a wonderful collection of hats.  Each Friday, they feature a different lady cat in a hat that's just right for that particular lady.  I just love my hat, and as most of you probably know, pink is my favorite color.

Now that I'm dolled up, if only I had somewhere to go.

Cats on Tuesday: Mancat on Man Shorts

Simba loves to hang out and nap on his daddy's shorts.  The only thing is that daddy's shorts should not be on the floor.

Sun Puddle

I spend every sunny morning chasing this sun patch around. I love to sun my tummy. (Mama is very embarassed about my naughty art work.)

Happy weekend!

Wordless Wednesday

Cats on Tuesday: Lap of Luxury

A new hotel will be opening later this month in Ft. Worth, Texas.  It will feature custom upholstered beds, chenille and satin blankets and 18-inch flat-screen TVs. If you're a human and you're interested, sorry. This hotel will be exclusively for dogs and cats.

Now, I thought I was knew what luxury was.  I get sun puddles all morning, my soft pink blanket in the afternoon, yummy foodies and fur brushings.  These pets get facials (I saw a picture of a dog with a blueberry facial and it looked like he was trying to lick it off), turn-down service every night (Mama, you now need to turn down my pink blankie) and suites that overlook an atrium, where robotic squirrels are the floor show (I bet real squirrels taste better).  The starting price is $65 a night and goes up to $200.  They also have a boutique where they sell Swarovski-crystal collars and $400 pink argyle cashmere dog sweaters.  For $20, your dog can have a 30-minute swim in the dog-bone shaped pool.

You know what? When I think of the homeless animals out there and my days in the shelter, I feel pretty fortunate.  Being in a loving, forever home is much better than all the luxury in the world.

I Got Mail!!

Friends,
I'm so excited!  I got a package over the weekend!  Actually, it was addressed to Simba and me.  It's from the Kool Kittie Krew.  I knew it was coming, so I've been watching for it.  They wanted to send me something because a few weeks ago I said that I never get mail.  Isn't that just the sweetest?

There are two different kinds of treats (Party Mix and Indoor Adventures), a package of four crinkle balls, a catnip pillow and a card.

The card is so cute.  It has a kitty giving the cold shoulder (something I love to do when I hear the camera turn on).

Inside it says "You're nobody 'til you've been ignored by a cat."  MOL!  Truer words have never been written.  In addition to all these wonderful gifts, Mama won a drawing that they had on their blog a few weeks ago.  She got a $25 gift card to a market in our town.  Isn't that great?

One of the best things in the package is this picture of King. He is so cute.  I love his sleepy face.  He's just so handsome and sweet.

I also especially love the catnip pillow.  It has Morris' face and his autograph on it.  I rubbed on it and rested on it for a long time.


We just want to thank our friends.  They are so generous and thoughtful!  I'm now off to get some of those yummy treats!

My Ratsie

Last night I was hanging out with Ratsie. Mama got him for me about a year ago when we first moved here to Pennsylvania from Texas.  I flew on an airplane and stayed in a hotel.  She promised me that once we were settled, she would get me a Plauge Ratise.  Now that it's been over year, his wonderful scent* has faded, but he still has a fun tail to chew and his body is perfect for bunny kicking. 

*Editor's note: That "wonderful scent" really smelled like old feet.

Cats on Tuesday

Mama found me in repose last night. I had a yummy dinner, a catnap in the sun earlier and did some shedding on the clean sheets.  Yep, it was a good day.

Happy Labor Day!

On Labor Day, do what Lucy does every day: take a well deserved rest!

Shameless Lucy

Hi Friends,
I don't get to enjoy this lovely sunshine today. Although it's going to be about 80 degrees today, it's gloomy and a little rainy. It may be that a little bit of Earl is effecting our weather.

Last night Mama fed me my nighttime crunchies (I just get a little bit of crunchies at night now) in the bedroom so I wouldn't have to go on the Stairmaster or even leave the room.  I ate most of them and left the room.  A little later she noticed I was gone and found me eating from Simba's bowl. His foodies are special for his kidneys and are fattening.  Mama doesn't understand why I did this since I had my own food in the bedroom.  That's when she called me shameless.  That's right. I'm shameless and proud of it!

Happy holiday weekend to those in the US and happy weekend to the rest!

Signed,
Saucy Lucy
