Showdown!

Maccallan is trying to not let me pass...but nothing and no one stops me from going down stairs. It may just take me a bit longer to get there.

Thanksgiving Dinner

Ok, so it looked like the same food we get every every night...but there was the smell of turkey in the air so our food tasted really good, as you can see from me licking my chops

We still like being together

even if it is getting a bit crowded these days...someone has to go on a diet...not that I am pointing any paws!

Some of us like to do stunt work!!!

while others just like to hang around around...guess which category I am in? Gotta start getting Jack up and around.

1 Year Anniversary Here!!!!

Today, one year ago Gilbert and Betsy brought me HOME...and I have been having a great time. To celebrate I got a new banana toy and some chicken. I even let Jack sniff it and have some of my chicken...and I let him sit in my special place.....I think that was really nice of me

OK...we got tired

We waited and waited and waited.....and then we had to nap a bit....but we'll get that mouse sooner or later.....but after our nap of course. I thought it was nice of me to let jack nap on my chair, even though Betsy thinks it is her chair....who is she kidding!

We know he is in there.

Jack and I were chasing a mouse and he ran into the fireplace. He was lucky that it wasn't lit at the time. But we are not going to move until he comes out...I promise.....we mean business!

You want me to play with THAT?

Gilbert's got to be kidding if he thinks I want to go out and play with that thing...not even sure what it is....it just stands there...doesn't seem like a lot of fun to me. I think I'll stay right here thank you!

We're only Playing...really

It may look like we're not...but we are really having a great time. Usually I am the one over powering Jack...but this time I let him win...I know...I know....hard to believe...but it is true.

BASEMENT TIME!!!!

We LOVE basement time. There is sooo much down there it is incredible. At least once a week Betsy lets us play in the basement....sometimes we wind up falling asleep down there...we lost track of time and before you know it it is dinner time...our other favorite time of day

Calcium is VERY important

That is why I have yogurt every day. I really love the peaches and cream or orange and cream flavors....or basically any fruit flavor. Betsy tried to get me to eat a Cinnamon Bun flavored one once. YUCK! So that was the end of getting that flavor.

You want me to mop up the water...really?

We had a lot of rain here last night and I keep telling Betsy she needs to put a gutter upstairs on the deck so we can stop the leaking...but has she listened to me NOOOO. So now she wants me to help with the clean up......I took a nap instead. That'll show her!

NY Times Rules

Betsy gave me an article to read that was in the NY Times about cats....finally.....some recognition...of course our humans are called crazy cat people...BECAUSE they are CRAZY for cats...don't see the problem with that...do you!

I know there is a mouse in there somewhere

We were chasing a mouse the other day.....Lil Mang was assisting....then we lost it....but Lil Mang still looked for it in the rug...he never gives up

'Cedes resting after dinner

This is 'cedes position for the rest of the night...until dinner the next day!

Someone is eating a lot!

Thought it would be interesting to see the difference between what 'cedes eats and Lil Mang's amount....guess which one I want a bite out of?

Lil Mang's 1 bedroom

While I moved into a larger place....I gave Lil Mang my old apt......he is trying to figure out how to furnish it since I took all of my stuff with me. times are tough you know....can't just be giving stuff away.

Moved into a larger condo

One box just wasn't big enough, I needed more room...doesn't everyone...and I got it for a steal with my super duper negotiating skills.

Sometimes I wonder what is going on in Lil Mang's head

He looks like he is in jail...but he hung out like this for quiet a while...maybe it's comfortable..who knew!

Lil Mang sidling up to MY DAD!

Who does he think he is.....guess he misses his humans so I will allow it this one time.

Lil Mang took my spot AGAIN!

This is getting to be a habit. Who do I have to talk to about this?????

First floor sleeping accomodations

Decided to nap on the first floor....the top floor doesn't look too stable, got to talk to the landlords about that.

JAAAACK!!!!! Get out

Jack snuck into my cube while I wasn't looking....so I attacked....now who's laughing last!!

Lil Mang wants in, take a number

But I'm in here so no way. He loves to look at me while I am in my cube. Maybe he can come n later.

lounging and waiting for dinner

So, here we are..Lil Mang decided not to join us. But it is always nice to talk a bit amongst ourselves before dinner is served. Very civilized!

Jack is the real life of the party

As you can see...Jack wasn't in the other post because he was keeping himself company. But don't let him fool you...he is the real life of the party..he just hides it well. That's what maturity does for you I guess.

Hats for everyone!!

So we were able to take pictures of most of my friends with their party hats on.....they were more agreeable to them than I was. That's because they are REAL party animals.

What is that in my food?

Betsy sid that it is a candle...and that I shouldn't eat it....like I would do that...it smelled horrible...but it was in celebration for my birthday....finally she took it out...but as you can see...she keeps trying with that hat!

Jack's in my cube

But I allowed it today since it was my birthday...but I did stay close by to make sure that he didn't break it. He is big you know.

What is with the Hat?

Betsy keeps trying to put this on me because it is my birthday. All she has done today is chase me around the house with it. So far, this is as close to my head as it is getting.
