When is the new kitty going to get here?????

First we heard that the new cat was supposed to show up on Friday. Then we heard it was supposed to show up today. Then we heard that it might not show up until Halloween! What's the deal? Our peeps keep emailing us and texting us and calling us to see if the new kitty has showed up, and we don't know what to say! Like we're not waiting for the new cat ourselves!  It's all we can think about!

What's she going to look like?  Will she be Calico or Persian or Himalayan? Will she get wet food or dry food or both? Will she nap with us 16+ hours a day?  Will she chirp at squirrels and birds? Will she hate baths as much as we do?

So many questions and so much excitement from one new kitty!

Our parents seem pretty excited too. They seem to think that funny things like going for long walks or sitting on a big blow up ball or eating spicy foods will help the new kitty get here faster. Not quite sure how that all works, but someone even suggested that our Imma eat lemon meringue pie to get the kitty to show up!

If you have any other suggestions for getting the new kitty to come sooner, please post them here.  We're ready to do whatever it takes! We can't wait any longer!!

Signed,

Your ladies in waiting

Pimp my ride

So our parents brought home a sweet new set of wheels tonight. Its name is BOB, and it is a fire engine red  cat cruisin' machine! Our parents put us it it and drove us around the house for a few minutes. You can see Simone in the secret hideaway on the bottom.                                                                                       
Our parents also got us a cat pack to ferry us around in. Caldecott enjoyed cozying up to our Imma, as you can see here. A few days ago, we were watching them through the window as they put in new seats for us in the cars.  We don't know where we're going, but the ride is gonna be sweet! Holla!
Until next time,
Your favorite felines in the ATL

A little background....



This is Simone here. I thought I'd give you a little background on what we know about this new kitty and why I was a little suspicious about it all along.

First, our Imma (that's Hebrew for "mom") sprouted a beer belly. This was weird because our Imma doesn't drink beer, so I don't know how she got the beer belly. The first picture is from February and the other is from two weeks ago. Check them out and you'll see what I mean about the beer belly.

The second weird thing was that our Abba (Hebrew for "dad") started reading to the stuffed animals. Here's our Abba reading to Sylvester the Fox.


So those things were kind of strange, but the
weirdest thing of all -- the one that makes me question what this "new kitty" is all about -- is this picture I found of the new kitty.... She's the strangest looking feline I've ever seen. No fur, no tail.... what is this, a hairless Manx? In the meantime, we're enjoying the fact that we still have free reign over the house. I'm a little
worried that the new kitty may move in and try to boss us around.


Sincerely,

Simone

PS -- This is me, if you don't know what I look like. Here I am hiding in my Abba's white coat. Pretty funny hiding spot for a black cat, huh?

So there's gonna be a new cat on the block?


My sister Simone and I were informed this morning that we'll be getting a new "kitty" in the next few days. This is news to me! As the older sister in this household, I would expect to be up on these things, so it does come as quite a shock. A lot of things are beginning to make sense now. I thought my Imma (Ariela) moved out of her office to give us more play space. It has been cat heaven since the new soft cat beds have been added...and all the soft blankets...and that rocking chair is great! That new toy in front of the door was fun; I slipped right through the bars like I was breaking outta jail! And all of those books! I am afterall named after the award for the finest illustrated children's books. But now, I am getting the sense that all of this fun stuff is for this new kitty! The horror! Oh my, what is to come?
