The Big 0-6

Happy Birthday, Jittybugs!!!!!!!!!

Because it's your birthday and you have to keep up your strength to fight The Gord I guess I will let you eat my spinach plant. Take all you want, I think I'm done with it. Leave your leftovers on the carpet. Thanks.

Jitterbug decided that for her birthday she wanted to hang out on the couch and chase the occasional bug. The cat lady is all up for lazy, but that's just a little too lazy so we decided to have game night. And presents.

Are we surprised someone has birthday jealousy issues??

We started with a rousing game of Cathello.

Next is Jitterbug's favorite - Cattergories.

We were gonna play a few others and have some ice cream but then this happened:

Maybe later we'll continue. I hear a short cat nap does wonders for the party bone. And we all know the party bone's connected to the stayin' out all night long.

Solitary Confinement

Following the day the cat lady left town

Jitterbug tried to hold the fort down

but when that didnt work

and she was sick of the jerk

she locked herself in the laundry room

all the while meowing "lack of litter will be your doom"

But the cat lady has reason to celebrate

because Gordon didn't urinate (much)

he now wont let her out of his sight

and is trying with all his 18 pounds of might

to permanently hold down the pretty pink suitcase

because without the cat lady won't leave home base

Snuggle Time!

Bloomage and Such

So....either Jittybugs has a secret admirer or these went the wrong address....thoughts?

Time for the Electronic Babysitter

The cat lady is too tired to blog so here is a video that pretty much proves Jitterbug sneaks out at night to travel.

Jitterbug's Top Songs of Right Now

I'm telling you, this cat is worse than the radio with the replaying the same few songs over and over thing. So. We made a deal. If I blog her favorites I get one hour of Jitty-music free time. She is one tough negotiator, but I finally got her to agree to something reasonable. So here goes.

10. What's New Pussy Cat by Tom Jones
9. The Kitty Cat Song by Lee Dorsey
8. Lucifer Sam by Pink Floyd
7. Smelly Cat by Phoebe Buffet
6. Feline by Bobby McFerrin
5. Stray Cat Strut by the Stray Cats
4. Alley Cat by Bent Fabric
3. Mr. Mistoffelees from Cats the Musical
2. Needing More Mows originally adopted from Kenny Chesney
1. Everybody Wants to be a Cat by Scatman Crothers

Cat has a problem, too sheltered, too focused on herself....needs to branch out. Which is why the next hour will be jam packed with Buddy Jewell and Katy Perry. The neighbors are going to love it.

Twu Wuv

Laundry: Jitterbug's one true love.

Glamour Shots

Snow days are lame
Snow nights are too
Especially when there is little to do
....Except have a photo session!!

Workin' it. Clearly.

Shot in the Ass

The vet called today.
Time for Jitterbug's rabies shot.
She is not pleased.

Meet my cat, Impulse

Sometimes the cat lady has a problem with impulse purchases. Like the time her car was overheating so she pulled over at the furniture store and bought a couch. And a chair.

Or last night when she went to get her haircut and it turned into a haircut/eyebrow wax with a facial appointment the next day. At least she was able to say no when the words "chemical peel" were uttered.

Or the time she went to Petsmart for cat food and came home with a cat. Jitterbug is pleased about this one. Her name would have been Impulse if it wasn't so totally lame. Honest to blog.

Alcohol Abuse

The setting: The cat lady's boudoir, late last night

The characters: Jitterbug and the cat lady

The cat lady is lying in bed performing typical cat lady activities; Reading, drinking beer, polishing off the last of the NYE gummy worms (can you say par-tay?!). Jitterbug approaches and eyes the relatively clutter free nightstand. As the cat lady likes to keep things relatively clean, the nightstand only contains, in addition to a fine layer of insulating cat hair; 1 lamp, 1 beer, 2 bottles of lotion, 2 bottles of water, and 4 books. Again, relatively clean. Sadly, this is all prior to the addition to 1 cat. Apparently 1 lamp + 2 bottles of lotion + 2 bottles of water +4 books + 1 cat worth of cat hair + 1 cat = -1 beer
