More pretty things to lay on!

She has made more pretty things and we climb on them when she lays them out to take photos and we don't get off them. We lay on them on the sewing machine while she trys to sew them and we lay on them while she is trying to press them at the ironing board. We are so lucky to have such a tallented human to live with!

We do our best to help choose the borders for these pretty pretties.

The more of us that lay on the top the better we show we like it but the things She makes are so pretty we like all of them.

We really like this one too but we like the fact that 3 are stacked on the bed because we haven't let her fold up and put away all the tops she finished today.

Last night because there wasn't any pretty pretties on the bed to lay on we had to settle for the window seats and the computer chair! Well we hope She keeps sewing and adding more pretties to the bed for us to lay on because the window and chair are boring!

She has been sick but making the most woderful things!

She was so sick last week She was having a lot of trouble breathing. So She took her box of fluffy white squares She blows her nose on to the sewing machine and finally put all these kitties together as a quilt top. We all helped her by biting the thread as it was moving through the machine and trying to catch the metal parts that go up and down. And we chased the empty bobbins when they ran out of thread and she took them out and put a full one in. I managed to hide one from her that she hasn't found yet!

Then She started piecing this bright quilt top. I stayed right on top of this one I don't want it getting away. When She put in on her bed to take a picture I jumped right up and claimed it as mine. But so did some of the other cats. Once She gets it quilted I don't know how I am going to keep everyone off my quilt!

During the day while She sits at the sewing machine Papa and Rockette sleep in the computer chair. Once Rocky Junior joined them but She had the camera taking pictures of quilt blocks so I couldn't get all 3 Rocky's in the same picture. Its getting kind of difficult to tell Rocky Senior(Papa) and Rocky Junior(Jr) apart now that we are full sized cats. I have my white socks to make it easy to tell me apart and Rockette will always be tiny like Mama.
She wrapped a fluffy blanket around the back of the fish tank so we could lay down and watch the fishies swim around their tank. There is finally room for me so I am going to go take up my space before someone else gets the same idea. Will post again real soon.

Happy 2011!

These are the 3 little girls that are left here now that Midnight found a forever home. She listed them on Petfinders and some family came and visited. They were here for awhile and we all played with them and then they took Midnight home with them. We all hope they let her sleep with someone because she has always slept with Her since she got big enough to climb up the side of the bed. None of these guys has ever slept alone so we really hope she is let to sleep with people otherwise she won't be very happy at her new home.
She is heart broken that she has to let the little ones go and She has even said that if she can find us big sister and brothers a good home she would let us go too. If we went who would keep up this blog? Although I have seen L E Oot eyeing the keyboard longingly. But he is an old man...he even has gray hairs around his eyes of late. Of course it may be that us kittens gave him each of those gray hairs! Anyway only time will tell what will happen with all of us over the next few months but I will try to keep you posted.

Way Too Much Fun!

 

As you can see I have been having so much fun I took a nap with L E Oot. We have all been so busy checking out the packages that come in the mail. We have to inspect everything to make sure it is safe for a house full of kitties!

 

She has been busy cleaning the house and decorating for Christmas and we have all been busy messing up the clean house and undecorating for Christmas!

 

We have all been busy taking ornaments off the tree and unstringing the beads too that we often take a nap under the tree just to save time!

 

Then the other day She spent hours wrapping up empty boxes and putting on pretty ribbons and bows and then She stacked them in the big front window and strung them with lights! We all take great pride in knocking them out of the window and unstringing the lights! The wrapping would have been much faster if She hadn't had sooo much help!

 

And She has been teaching Rockette (The striped itty bitty) How to play a computer game! She says its even more fun than blogging but I haven't tried it yet so I don't know if that is true!

Oh no She is awake again! They are changing her meds around and She doesn't sleep much which is one of the main reasons I haven't posted. Will post more next time She is asleep!

Busy Week

Last Weekend She brought a big box into the house and took out a tree! She moved furniture around and put the tree together. Then She plugged it in and lights came on and we all went nuts! As She strung beads and hung balls on this tree we tried to take them off so we could continue to play with the tree. You would think She would get mad at us but not her She laughed so hard she had tears running down her face.

Everyday She puts the beads back up on the tree as well as the balls and everyday we work real hard to get them all back off so that we can play with them. Our toy box is collecting dust and we are having a blast. Or we were until Monday morning anyway. On Monday morning She put Daddy and I into boxes with handles and doors and we went for a ride like JR did when he swallowed Her sewing needle. We went to a place that had a great big cat that was very friendly and came over to greet us. After we chatted for a while we took a nap and when we woke up we were kind of loopy! It was all so much fun! Then we got a nice long ride home on a bus and we sang to all the people about our adventure and our tree at home. We stayed loopy for a couple of days and now that we are not loopy anymore it seems I am missing something in my nether regions but I can't quite put my claw on what is missing...oh well I am getting lots of affection from Her so I don't really care if anything is missing it must not have been important.

 Wednesday Morning She put Momma and Sissy in the boxes and they got to go for a ride. They were gone most of the day and they came back as loopy as daddy and me. Only they had naked bellies! It was so funny to see they both have great big spots on their belly where they are naked! And the kittens wanted to nurse and Mommy let them and then they were loopy and went staggering around until they passed out!

Momma doesn't nurse them much anymore. Her and Sissy both have little owies on their bald spots but their hair will grow back just like JR's has done on his neck. And the really strange part is that us boys aren't as interested in the girls as we had been! I guess we are just having too much fun playing with our indoor tree!

Enough Said

The little kittens are running around like crazy and no one has gotten much sleep. For me it is still yesterday and since I won't get any sleep until tomorrow, when I wake up I will think it is today and not tomorrow and so all day I will be acting like it is today and it will be tomorrow and I will be really confused!

Now the funny stuff! Yesterday 3 frozen chicken breasts were put out on the cupboard to thaw for dinner. She was busy working on the computer and wasn't paying attention to the fact that the chicken breasts were mostly thawed by mid-afternoon. Now mom was hungry and the little ones had eaten all the kitten chow and she could see that the chicken breasts were thawed so she jumped up on the cupboard and got one of the chicken breasts off the plate and brought it down for all of us to eat! With 11 cats all pulling it in different directions it was like a Charlie Chaplin movie! And best of all was the look on Her face when she went to the kitchen to see if the chicken breasts were thawed and found only 2 thawed breasts! She is still looking for a hiding place where we must have stashed it! But the only place She is going to see that chicken breast is when she scoops our litter pans!

Are You laughing yet! We are rolling on the floor laughing our asses off!

Nighty night!

The kittens have grown!

As you can see from the latest photo the little ones are not so little anymore and they look kind of funny trying to nurse on such a small mom. They do just like we did when we were small. They get together and just push her over and climb on top of her. I took this photo because of the juxtaposition with the Feed Me place mat!

This is a close up of one of the little ones asleep on Her lap on a soft silky blanket. The others were trying to eat Her braid in her hair.

And this is what it looks like when a six month old kitten decides to join the 6 week old kittens for a drink. Of course I am the only one who would try such a thing. Mom didn't let me do it for very long!

And these photos are JR playing with 2 of the little ones under and around the recliner. We love to play with the little ones and sometime it looks like we are being very rough but we would never hurt our little sisters and brothers!
Well the little ones have mom pinned down again so I think I will go see if I can sneak a drink while they hold her down!
Later
