Our human finally went to bed so we are taking over the computer! We DeKitties of DeQwiltylady have friends all over the world and until now we couldn't let them know how we are doing and what we have been up to. At present there are 7 of us. The seniors are L E Oot and LayDeBug a Siamese pair. Then there are the Juniors Rocky who is a Savannah tabby male and Conundrum who is a tuxedo female. Rocky and Conundrum are the proud parents of three sophomores Rocky Junior(JR), LB which sometimes stands for Lover Boy or Little Brother or Little Bitty or sometimes even Little Brat, and Adora who is the explorer of the bunch. The freshmen are due any day now and we all suspect there will be more than three this time as Mom looks like she swallowed a football sideways instead of just a small melon. We will keep you posted as to their arrival and all in future blogs when we can sneak a few minutes on the keyboard when Qwiltylady isn't looking. JR looks mostly like Daddy except for a white throat he got from Mom. LB has Dad's spots and Mom's white feet and chest. Adora used to have charcoal and black stripes but as she gets older she is beginning to be all black and she has the softest silkiest fur.
It is our job to sit in the window and entertain the people who pass by the house we live in. The house was painted lilac a few years back so everyone notices both the house and us. Today we entertained the road construction crews by chasing a fly that was in the window. We were falling all over each other trying to be the one to get the fly but LayDeBug waited for us to chase the fly right to her and then instead of batting it back to us she ate it!
One of our favorite games is tub hockey. A couple of weeks ago our human took up the bath mat from the tub and placed a large smooth rock in the tub. We make a lot of racket knocking it around the tub. When it goes into the drain we score 25 points! But then we have to wait for Daddy to dig it out of the drain. It's a good thing the rock is big enough not to go down the drain or our human would have to call the plumber lots and lots.
All four of the big cats were rescued from shelters or abusive homes but none of us will ever want to leave this house. Our human makes the prettiest quilts you ever seen and she always lets us play and sleep on them. There is no place in the house where we are not allowed. The only rule that we get in trouble for breaking is not messing with her sewing machine while she is messing with it. And our human reads out loud to us all the time, not just short stories but whole books. We also have tons of toys. Besides the catnip mice and scratching posts we have empty thread spools, a string of beads we stole off the Christmas tree last year, empty pill bottles, spinach tie wraps, lots of lanyards, and reusable shopping bags. There are lots more but we don't want Her to know all the things we have procured.
Oh we got to go now Her just got out of the bed and she must not know we are communicating. Have a great day and smile it makes people wonder what you are up to.
