Choose To Snooze

Everybody sleeps , snores and snoozes at different times and in unique pawzishuns, and that's what makes the world a wonderful furiendly place to catnap in any time zone. But getting to a sound snooze is not always easy.

Naturally, some people dose right off - starting to dream abundacat good dreams in technacatcolor but some people purrfur Bed Time Nighty Night Tea to get them dreaming naturally faster.

Hot and steamy, really relaxacatting bathes can expedite your snoozing too but youza gotta propel yurself outta da tub before youza can snooze.

Don't furget a good glass of EyeTailYun red wine has nachural knock-out enzymes!

Good books can put youza to sleep too but don't slumber till youza finishes that chapter so you don't have to re-read it tomorrow.  

Here's wishing you a week filled with abundacatnaps and hoping it's a nonCATstrophic week too! Pssst ... get ready for next week cuz we're gonna pawty hearty and celebrate my turning fab 5!

Ciao & Meow,

Itza fur shure the well groomed and a few doomed-dressed wedding guests had abundacat rodents racing around their ankles on the wedding day cuz The Abbey duzn't have a house cat. Hey... there's herds of purebred royal mices in da Abbey with lineage longer than the aisle! Now this guest's couture izza politicatically correct - repurrsenting our fine feathered furiends, our doggone good pooch pals and we meowvalous meowsters.

It's Funny To Meet The Bunny

Itza hilaricatious and possibly hare raising I tells you, yep uh huh -  the Bunny izza funny and somethings is never fur shure, but itza fur shure that this week is the week the Bunny izza coming to town. Me & Myself meeted and greeted him to cat chat bout stuff, yep just cat chatting and having a harelarious time.

Signore Bunny claims he lays Easter eggs in a purrfecto dozen! I'ma purrondering that amazing fete fur shure.

Bamzatini and Holy Cannoli I sees that  'plain Jane' egg dozen turn into wonnerful colorful eggs right befur my eyes! I thinks I met Houdini-Bunny!

Absoluticatically - carrots must be the answer to dat Bunny's magical musings.

A Tisket or a Tasket, whatza in his basket? Purrhaps samples of Crest, Ipana, Colgate, Arm and Hammer, Tom's of Maine and Pepsodent too. The jumbo Hare needs to brush more or visit the Orthodogtist cuz he just has 2 teeth - just enuf for working on dat carrot or enjoying a Carrot Cake but heeza still smiling and out and about. So youza sees, the message is dat somethings just not impurrtant in life cuz da beauty izza inside, not on dat outside.

Wishing you da mostest nonCATastrophic week and make it a Catzowey week!

Grin! Cuz You're Meeting Your Twin

 Statisticats with PhD's (stands for "Purr-House-Directors) around the World say that everybody has a twin somewhere on the Planet, and thatza amazing stuff to purrponder. Thinking about being just one wonderful, super dooper and pawsative YOU is enough,  but then to think about having dat identicatical Twin, well CATZOWEY! Datsa amazing fur shure and could be exhausticatting to the meowximum - like double da stuff.

When youza meets yur Twin, itza recommended to extend yur paw to do a "how duz your Twin self do" paw shake. And then you might wanna try to trick yur Twin by changing quick to the other side, to find out if theyza authenticatically yur Twin! Purrhaps theyza faux twin whooza stolen yur identicatical identity.

Bamzatini! Dat authenticat Twin goes where you goes - left, right or uppa or downza, always passing da authenticat Twin test.

Me & Myself is trying to trick my Twin by looking like I duzn't care - hee hee!  But my Twin is looking exacticatically at me and myself not caring either. Basta Pasta whatza with this Twin that he can't be his own solo self?

Watching my authenticat Twin has made me exhausticatted so I'ma having a solo PurrEyeVat catnap.

Catzowey! Itza like seeing waaaaay tooza many of me - like triplacats!  I'll be back on da pawsative solo track next Monday. Cuz spending the week with my Twin and Me & Myself wazza exhausticatting fur shure, yep uh huh. Phewzatini, 3 of me means itza time for a Meowtini and tuna too.

Wishing you a nonCATastrophic week!

Spring Flinging On The Field Of Dreaming

Itza Spring! Daffodils are blooming and I'ma not snoozing cuz Baseball season izza here, and I wanna hear from the purrfeshonal coaches (pssstt.... theyza won The World Series!)  on how Me & Myself can throw some curve balls instead of my EyeTailYun meatzaballs! 

 Warming uppa my pitch and my catch and my every move is the 1st exercise fur yur sports meowscles, cuz The Coach says getting to know the ball izza good idea. This ball and me izza comfy together cuz weeza catchatting.

Itza sneaky move to look yur batter directacatically in the eye when youza bout to pitch dat ball towards him. Might even hypnocatatize him so he falls over before he can hit it! Bamzatini ...  youza runs fast all around da bases, jumping uppa and downza like youza just won the Acatemy Award!

Baseball has 9 innings but my favorito inning of all is the 7th Inning Stretch. 

After abundacat purrractice, youza can end up on a Trading Card or on a dry food kibble box on the super dooper market shelf!

Duzn't matter whooza youza rooting and tooting fur, cuz itza just more meowvalous to have funtasticat fun in the sun and get out to dat Ballpark. OR  purrtend youza there when youza really relaxacatting on yur comfurtable sofa munching Oscar Meyer weiners with ballpark mustard drippity dripping down yur chin! And nobody in the seat next tooza youza, izza saying "Scuzzi, youza got ballpark mustard drizzling down yur chin", cuz  Catzowey youza home alone and smiling with every bite of dat ballpark frank.

Here's to da Season with a reason - hot diggity dogs at the Ballpark!

Wishing you a nonCATastrophic week.
