File Your Complaint Here

On Monday I said that Mama needed to go to PetSmart because we were low on cat food. Well, a lot of you commented that she better get to the store ASAP. Did she heed that advice? I guess it depends on one's definition of ASAP.


At 8:45 p.m. (yes, in the evening, not morning), she strolled into the kitchen, looked at the cat food and nonchalantly mentioned that she should go since there was only enough left for one meal. She left the house at 8:48 and PetSmart closes at 9:00! Now, if she were almost out of her precious coffee/diet soda/cookies/etc, I know she would have left much earlier.

All is forgiven, however, because she got us Greenies.  She hasn’t been feeding us treats because of the whole waistline thing, but these are only 2 calories per treat. I’ve never had Greenies before. They are delicious! She said that I’ll only get two a night. Sigh. I’m not big on moderation.

Monday Morning

We had a good weekend. Mama and Papa went to Philadelphia on Saturday to walk around in the sunny weather. They got wind gusts later in the afternoon though. I spent a lot of time in my bed napping and hanging out.  Mama had to work for a few hours Sunday afternoon. Then she made a big pot of soup for dinner. Unfortunately, it was potato soup, which means there wasn't any meat.

The cat food supply in this house is getting dangerously low.  I'm sending Mama out to PetSmart today.

We hope you all had a wonderful Mother's Day!

Finally Friday

Hi!  We love Fridays around here. Here's how I plan on spending my weekend:

Isn't life great?

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Marshmallow Dreams

I love marshmallows.  Last night, Mama had some leftover mini marshamallows after making rice krispie treats, so I got two of them*.  We make a game of it.  I like to chase and hunt them.  These pictures don't show me chasing them, but I really do. I love the way they roll across the carpet.

 *Editor's note: The last time Lucy had a marshmallow was probably two years ago. I just didn't want you to think her ample waistline is due to too many marshmallows.

Wordless Sun-Bake Wednesday

Monday Morning

I hope you all had a good weekend!  Mama has been sick, so she didn't do much. She did get to the library for her usual stack of books and movies though.  The weather is very hot here. It's in the low 90's.  Simba and I were bakin' ourselves on the patio. We pretend we are lions, hot and tired after a hunt.

Merci Beaucoup Mon Amie

Disregard the bags in the background. Mama does not know how to properly set up a picture.

We got a package in the mail a few weeks ago from Nice France!  Our friend Malyss from Chronicles from the Shore sent us a gift for being her 10,000th visitor.  Her blog has beautiful pictures from Nice and other wonderful places, and we love Malyss' poetic prose.

We got a beautiful tea towel, sachet for Mama's underthings drawer, lavender soap, two postcards and a cute painted cicada.  The theme is lavender because of the beautiful lavender fields in Nice and Southern France.

That postcard is to just Simba and me. This is the first time we received our very own postcard.

Mama put the cicada in my catnip plant for this picture, but it's going to live on the dresser. We think it's so cute.

I now want to introduce you to her two French kitties, Jim and Chestnut.
Here's Jim. Isn't he handsome?

Here's Chestnut. Who doesn't want to tickle that silly tummy?

We just really want to thank Malyss for her thoughtful gift and her friendship to Mama.
