Happy Birthday Dad!

Even though you haven't been very nice to me lately I still hope you have a nice day!

Snot Noses!

Well it happened. I now have a couple of "nephews" and the snot nosed little brats came over and tried to take over. To top it off I have been chided for not being nice to them. So what, I growled a little. Sue me! This is my house and I will not let it be overrun by some snot nosed little twerps!

Oh and thanks dad and Misses Hiney. Dad was on the floor playing with them and Misses Hiney just hung around. She could have shown some unity, but oh no. Mom doted over them too so I gave her the cold shoulder yesterday morning and got yelled at again.

I guess I'm just yesterday's news. It's all about the new kittens and ol' Roo, who has been a good cat lo these many years is just pushed aside. Well you can have your kittens but just think what you'll be missing. You won't have Rooney to kick around any more.

Proof Sucks!

Well me and Misses Hiney had a couple of weigh-ins last night and as dad is fond of saying, the proof is in the pudding. I guess that means our diets are working. Well dad, the proof sucks and so does being on an involuntary diet!

The good news is that I am down to 13.4 pounds. Dad even said I looked skinny this morning when he was pulling my tail. Of course he also asks me all of the time if I am getting taller so who knows what the F he is saying. Misses Hiney is down to 16.2 pounds and mom and dad are real rpoud of her.

The bad news is that we are still on diets and Misses Hiney just can't get used to it. I see dad measuring our food and he has been serious about us not getting too much to eat. Misses Hiney devours hers and then whines for the next 12 hours until it is time to eat again. I like Misses Hiney, but her whining does get irritating. Oh well, as they say!

Well I guess I am back in fighting shape, but once again, I have no idea who I am fighting!

Love you all!

Happy May!

Hi everyone! Hope everyone is doing well. I've been enjoying a few days off of writing and been pretty much acting a fool and messing with mom and dad! Oh I've been up to all of it. Knocking stuff around, eating Misses Hiney's food, jumping on mom and dad when they're sleeping and a new one, sneaking out into the garage when they open the door just a crack!

That's about all that's new around here. Dad is all agog since May is here. I guess he'll be out at the Speedway as much as possible this month. You know I'll be rooting for Panther Racing!!

That's about it for now. Oh, one last thing, I heard it was Sue's birthday yesterday, so Happy Birthday Sue!!!

Peace and love to all!

Double Lockouts!

I don't know what the hell we did, but all of the sudden we are being locked out of the bedroom twice a day. Once before it is time for dad to get up and then today, after he showered he locked us out when he went back to sleep. Yesterday I went in the bedroom after dad went in there and mom ran me out and locked me out. Look guys, if you don't want me, someone does. My feelings are really hurt right now.

Someone owes Roo an apology and maybe an extra bowl of food for this!

Monday, April 14, 2008

LMAO!!

Last night I pulled a good one, and one of my all time faves! I let mom and dad get to bed and then I made sure dad was fast asleep. Then I got a head of steam up running down the hall and leapt into their bed right on top of dad!

He popped right up and wondered what the heck happened. By then I was out of his reach at the far corner of the bed so he couldn't even swing a pillow at me. I had a hard time getting to sleep I was laughing to my self so much!!

Friday, April 11, 2008

Mama Mia!

Sorry about the water thing this morning mom. It really was an accident. It wasn't like me knocking things over when I'm hungry.

For those of you wondering, I was walking into the bathroom to lay by the register and I knocked mom's opne bottle of water over. Normally I don't think that would be all that bad, but it fell into her purse soaking everything in it. Mom has them fancy schmancy purses too so that makes it worse. But it really was an accident. Unfortunately I'm in the, and God how I hate this, doghouse. Guess I better behave tonight when mom gets home!

Thursday, April 10, 2008

Hi There!

Howdy everyone!

Hope everyone is having a great day. Me, I've decided to tough it out and stay here and go to the vets in a couple of weeks. Thanks to my friend Smokey who offered to let me come over. Same to Greg and Amy. Dad just doesn't get it, but he will!!!

I don't really have too much else. I did catch some of a movie the other night called Best In Show. What the F is up with that? A movie about a damn dog show? Dog shows are so lame. If you want real excitement go to your local cat fanciers show.

Well take care. It's been nice weather here the past few days so mom has had some windows open. It's been really nice, except for last night. I had kind of a sour stomach so I just kind of laid around. Dad came in and watched Jeopardy! with me. I heard him tell mom that he kicked my ass at it, but I let him win. He's such a dork!

Later gators!

I'm Out Of Here

It's been some tough days for ol roo. First off, the Tigers lost the big game last night because they can't hit free throws. Dad said it would catch up to them and it did. But mainly, bad days are here because it is truly vet time. Well, I am not going to just sit here and take it.

No, I've decided I hate it so much that I am planning my escape. It's not that I want to leave home, but I just can't handle going to the vet again. On top of shots I have to have a physical this time around. It's going to hurt so much that I have just decided not to go.

So if any of you see a beautiful black cat with his hobo pack strolling down the road, that'll be me heading for greener pastures and ones where there is no vet. As for the blog, I'll catch you up when I get a chance.

Bye for now!

I'll Earthquake You!

More earthquake's last night eh dad? You are going to get it this time. I was really tired last night after you made me sit with you for about five hours. You know how that stresses me out. Then you pull your earthquake crap while I am trying to sleep.

You better sleep with one eye open tonight because I am going on the offensive and I will get my payback. You close that eye and I'll pounce right on top of you, or maybe I'll bite you while you are sleeping, but revenge will be mine.

There's nothing you can do so you better just be on the lookout!

A New Way!

Faithful readers of this blog know it's been a while since I really had dad on the run, but today I am happy to report that there is a new way and to paraphrase the song, I won't be fooled again!

You all know about me and Misses Hiney being locked out of the bedroom in the mornings before it is time to be fed. We get hungry at 3:30 or 4:00 but dad won't feed us until 5:00. That is when I start my reign of terror. This results in dad getting out of bed, acting like he is going to feed us. Then when me and Hiney head for the kitchen he locks us out of the bedroom. I know I'm a dope for falling for it every day, but that shit is over!

Today I got going about 4:00 and mom told dad to lock me out. When he got up Misses Hiney did her usual move to the kitchen, but not ol' Roo. No sir! I went under the bed and dad locked the door. But as he went back to bed I jingled my collar just a little so he would know I was still in there. He was pissed! So he got back up and went to the kitchen and rattled the food canister. I came running. I didn't get fed, but I made him work harder just for a lockout.

The bottom line is that I can outlast him in a battle of wills and soon I will be fed when I want, not when it is convenient for him. I got you good on this one dad! I told you I'd win this war and now it looks like the end is near!

Happy Birthday Roo!

Hi Everyone,
Roo's dad here to wish him a Happy Birthday! Roo is taking the day off to celebrate the occasion. I just wanted to put the word out and wish him a Happy Birthday!

I Thought Spring Was Here and the NCAA

Is it ever going to stop raining? God this sucks. It has been raining for more than 24 straight hours. Am I in Seattle? It even looks cold out there. I know it rains in the spring, but cold and rain. I even heard dad say it might snow tonight! Winter, I'm over it!

Tomorrow is the start of the big college basketball tournament. Dad is all geeked up about it. Of course, he is a geek! I'm not that big of a basketball fan, but there does seem to be more of a charge in the air this time of year for the sport.

So I was looking at the tournament and filling my brackets out and I noticed there are only 10 cat teams in the damn thing. But what is cool is that the team that is going to win IS a cat team. The Pittsburgh Panthers are the strongest team going in and I can't see how anyone can beat them. Look for the Panthers to beat North Carolina for the whole enchilada. Duke and Kansas will round out your Final Four.

The Indiana teams you ask? Well the Hoosiers (non-cat) will lose their first game. Boilermakers (non-cat) will probably win 2 at the most. Butler (I won't even put their name on here) is a one and done at best and the Fighting Irish (non-cat) might win 2. Pretty sad year for the state. IUPUI got jobbed by not getting in. They are a cat team and would have done the state proud!

There you have it. Now go enjoy the games, if not the weather!

I Am So Sorry!

Dad,
I am so sorry I acted like a baby yesterday. I know I hurt your feelings and I know you are mad at me. I was just feeling a little off and I just wanted to lay around. But I know you like me and just want to hold me and have me sit on your lap. I know you're not going to hurt me. I don't know why I was acting all scared, but I know you were hurt.

You didn't say two words to me this morning, even when I was yelling when you fed me and you didn't pull my tail when I came in your room. You didn't even say bye to me this morning. I'd be hurt by all of this, but I know it is my fault.

I promise that I will try to be less of a wuss. I don't want you mad at me and I hope we can still be friends.

Sincerely,

Rooney

Outrage

I don't do too many serious pieces on here, but today I am just outraged. For those who have not heard some drunk in Muncie forced his kids to kill thier pet cat. "Boots" was stabbed and strangled because this piece of human debris "wanted his kids to learn how to kill."

The complete story can be found here http://www.indystar.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20080314/LOCAL/803140459

What kind of sick moron, drunk or not, forces his kids to kill anything, let alone a cat. And rest assured that I would be equally outraged if it was any pet. I poke fun at dogs on here because dogs are kind of dumb and they make an easy target, but I would never condone killing a dog in this manner.

Sometimes I wonder how people have even survived on this planet as long as they have the way they act. They war, they kill each other over the littlest things and they basically hate. It's just so sad.

Is That Really Spring?

Roo here!

Man what a day it looks like out there, and even though I'm stuck inside I can lay in the window and soak up all the sun and just bask in the warmth! Hopefully this'll mean I get to at least go out in the garage a little more. On the downside it means that my trip to the vet can't be far off. I heard mom talking about getting the notice last week. That kind of sucks, but hey, who can be mad on a day like this?

Well I'm gonna bop out of here for now and head back to the window. Maybe I'll see my squirell friend and maybe I'll even see mean old Bob across the street and shake my paw at him!!

Peace and love!!

Happy Anniversary!

To me! That's right, the Box Cat, Mr. Pup, Rooney or what have you has been blogging for a year tomorrow. I'm taking the day off in my honor and to think of new ways to drive dad crazy.

I was in a foul mood last week and it kept up through the weekend! I was knocking stuff around, being anti-social and generally being ornery. I loved it! Dad earthquaked me a couple of times and he now knows that he will pay!

Well I really don't have much new for this milestone post, but I just wanted to pop in and let everyone know that I hope you have had as much fun reading this blog as I have had writing it. Dad did say he was proud of me for keeping it going and that most people who start blogs stop posting to them within a couple of weeks.

Well, back to my paper ball box!!! Catch ya soon!

Roo

Where the F is Spring?

Really, that's all I got! I'm just sick and tired of this gloomy, crappy, cold weather.

Oh, and dad, stop earthquaking me when you get up to go to the bathroom at night and I am in the chair. If you don't I'm gonna have a special surprise for you!

Can you tell I'm in a shitty mood?

Later,

Rooney

What A Week I'm Having!

Really, it's not all that great.

Mom and dad are painting Amy's room and it's no longer those cool dark colors. Plus when I go in there I nearly get painted. One good thing is that mom moved the coasts out of the closet and put them on the couch. Now I have a gret new vantage point to sit. Dad was going to make me move, but I was on his 8 coat and I don't think he really cared since it was his driver's old number.

Saturday I was mean again during the day and as such we were fed about 15 minutes late. It kind of sucked but I was having fun knocking stuff to the ground. Yesterday I almost knocked the drill off of the table but dad caught me and yelled at me.

Also, mom and dad tried to sleep in yesterday, but I fixed them. Dad got up and fed us at 5:15. Then he went back to sleep but left their door open. So about 8:00 I headed in there to knock stuff around and basically wake them up. Then I decided to lay right on top of mom until she woke up. That was the end of her sleeping. I think dad had a hangover so he slept a little longer.

All in all it was a pretty good week and weekend for ol' Roo! Today I'm just hanging out waiting for the race to start. Sometimes mom comes home early when the race is on a Monday, but she didn't say anything about it this morning.

That's about it for now. Have a great day!!

Good Morning Race Fans!

Hi, it's me Roo to talk about today's running of the Daytona 500!

First of all it looks like dad's driver is poised to capture his second 500. Junior seems to have the car and the desire to win. That douchebag Stewart also looks strong in the Toyota, but you know I like the Cat car of Dave Blaney for the Toy's.

It looks like a nice day there so anyof you who are there I hope you enjoy it. Mom and dad are heading out to a viewing party so I'll be here in the chair taking in the action!!

So go Buckeye Bullet!!!

Diet

Misses Hiney is on a strict diet again, and since she is, so am I and it sucks.

Look, I know most of my posts are about food or lack thereof, but this really is hitting below the belt. We are down to a strick quarter of a cup of food per meal and even dad is keeping to it. Well it's just not enough so I am back to stealing Misses Hiney's food whe I can. Unfortunately I was caught Sunday morning and dad was pissed. He even game me a bit of a spanking the second time around.

I just don't know what to do. Mom did give us a little Super Bowl treat last night before bed, but it didn't make up for it and I was starving again at 5:00. I gave dad an earful and he took another swing at me. Then I headed down to Misses Hiney's bowl again.

I want to be good, but I just can't. Can anyone help me? Please!

Friday, February 1, 2008

Super Bowl Weekend

Well the big game is almost here. Admittedly I don't have as much interest in it as I might have, had the Jags, Panthers or Lions been in it, but I think it will be a good game. I do think the Patriots will prevail, but I think the game will be fun to watch.

Dad is kind of bummed since his Dolts aren't in, but they pretty much sucked anyway so he had to know he wouldn't be in there.

Well, that's about it for now. We were supposed to have a big snow storm last night and I thought mom and dad may have been able to stay home with me and Misses Hiney today, but alas it didn't do much and they both went to work. Guess it's back to nap time for Roo!

Friday, January 25, 2008

Brrrrrrr!

Is it cold or what? Holy hole in the donut! It's a frigid 2 degrees out there this morning and it doesn't feel a whole lot warmer in the house.

I was so nice and toasty warm this mornign and then mom got up at about 3:00 and locked me out of the bedroom. I thought I was going to freeze my tuckus off!! I just couldn't find a warm place in the house. I went to the vent in Amy's room, but it wasn't very warm. Then I went in front of the love seat and again, it was just cold. Misses Hiney had the recliner so that wasn't an option. I finally went in mom's computer room and curled up on the chair, but I was cold.

When dad got up he even remarked that it was cold. Luckily he turned the heat up a tad and fed me so between burning the fuel and the added degree I felt a little better.

Now that mom and dad are gone I think I'll go curl up in their bed under the covers. They have the flannel sheets and they are so soft and warm! But really, I'd like to see it warm up outside, so the house will be a littel warmer as well!

Love you all!

The Rooney Rule

I was watching the NFL Network this morning and they were talking about Tony Dungy staying on as coach of the Colts and speculating whether or not Mike Holmgren would stay on as coach of the Seahawks. I also heard something about The Rooney Rule. I do like to make up rules, but I don't know what the Rooney Rule is. I don't recall making up any such rule.

I did a search and apparently it has something to do with NFL teams having to consider black cats to be coaches before they can actually hire someone. I think it's a great rule now! Who is better than a black cat to run a football team. We're smart, competititve and level-headed. Dad says I am very stoic and after looking that up I think my even-keeledness can be an asset as well. Not only for me but any black cat.

So for now, I urge any NFL owners to hire black cats to run their teams! They won't be sorry.

I Just Couldn't Watch!


I tried, I really did, but I just couldn't watch the second half of the game Saturday night. I had to turn away. I even tried levaing the room several times, but dad kept bringing me back in. He said it would build character!

The Jags suck and I hate football right now!!!

Friday, January 11, 2008

All Quiet On the Mitchner Front!

Whew!

It looks like I have dodged yet another bullet! I was worried last night that when dad got home he would still be mad at me. Especially after reading his comment on this blog. But other than a couple of fingers and an evil glare he was fine. In fact he and I made a pact this morning that if I root for his Colts on Sunday he will root for the Jags on Saturday. It's not much for him since he hates the Pats a lot, but it's a start. Plus, you know how weevilish I am, I might just renege on it when Sunday rolls around!!

Just kidding dad!


Well anyway, I do think my Jaguars will win against the Patriots. I also think his Colts will win, but it will be a claw biter. In the NFC I like the Cowboys to finally cut the Giants down to size and the Packers to beat the Seahawks. Just like last week I'll be tuned in for all of the action. Below you can see me watching last weeks beatdown of the Steelers....


Have a great weekend and enjoy the games!!

Love you all!

Uh-oh!

Hi gang;


Well I may have really cooked my goose this morning. I was oh so hungry at 3:00 that I thought I would die if I didn’t eat. I think mom gave us less food last night since Misses Hiney is on a diet again. But I guess I have to join her. Well it was just too much and I had to have food. Stat!

Well dad has been a bit under the weather the past few days and he has been sleeping in the living room chair. I was asleep in mom and dad’s room when the hunger pangs started. I tried to behave but I just couldn’t. I swear I’m trying to be a better cat, but old habits are hard to break!

Well I went in to the living room and jumped up on the end table, which I know is a no-no. It was about 3:00. Dad woke up and shooed me down and promptly went back to sleep. Well I was dying. So a little while later I jumped back up there and when dad didn’t wake up I knocked over the silver picture frame that sits on the silver platter and it made a terrible racket. Dad woke up then and swung a pillow at me and cussed me. Then he looked like he was going to go back to sleep so I went back up on the end table. He cussed me again and got up and fed me.

That is the good news. The bad news is that dad is really mad at me this morning and now we have to wait even longer to eat today. I’m sorry about doing it, but I was so hungry. But I am going to have to make it up to dad. I don’t want him mad at me. I know he loves me, but still, I don’t want the cold shoulder treatment I have been getting this morning.

I guess I will have to be on special good behavior for a while till the storm blows over. Wish me luck!

Football Season Recap

Ugh! That's about all I can say about the season.

What started as a season with so much promise only yielded one cat team into the playoffs. The Lions and Panthers really sucked the second half of the season and only the Jaguars are in. It really tweaks my melon what happened.

Well at least there is one team to root for. Dad can kiss my backend if he thinks I will root for those damn Colts.

As for other things it was a pretty quiet New Years around the house. Amy is gone so that makes things a little quieter. Dad cut his hair in her room on Sunday and made a mess. I hung out in there a little, but it is kind of cold so I have been more in the other part of the house.

I did help dad with cleaning his room on Saturday and Sunday. What a mess, but we got through it. You should see how many paperballs I have now. If the box gets knocked over mom will kill me!

Well I hope you are all getting along fine here in the new year. It's really cold here so I better hop back into bed and curl up and stay warm.

Love you all!!

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year Everyone,

Okay, it’s still a few days off but Happy anyway! Hope everyone had a super Christmas. I didn’t really get anything I wanted except the paper balls. Dad said I have just been too naughty. But then last night he really surprised me by giving me a milk ring tied to a piece of string! It is one of my favorite things to play with ever!

My New Year’s resolution is to be a nicer cat. I know I’m a little mean so I am going to strive to be better and maybe I won’t have to worry about getting nada for Christmas next year or at least not get locked out every day. So far, since Christmas it has happened every day.

Btu enough about what I didn’t get! We did get UVerse at home over the weekend. I really like the picture quality and we can watch all of our stations in all four rooms now! The downside is that I still don’t see a Cat channel.

Dad is all agog because when he first turned it on the Flintstones were on. Now I didn’t know what the hell that was, but on Sunday he had me watch an episode with him and now I at least know where “Yabba-Dabba-Doo” comes from. I still don’t know what it has to do with me though.

Nothing much else is new here. Mom and dad took the Christmas tree down yesterday so my bunker is gone, but at least I can get back in the window without any hassle now.

Tomorrow is Amy’s big day. She’s moving out, but I suspect she’ll be back over to see me. I asked dad and he said I probably did not have to move out when I get older since that doesn’t really apply to cats. I’m probably going to be sad over the weekend when she is gone those first few days, but I’m really happy for her!

Well I better run, the Hillbillies are coming on!

Love and peace!!

NOT A December to Remember!

Hi everyone,

Just a few short days until Christmas! Hope you are all ready out there and can relax this weekend before the big days! Me, I've been laying around under the tree a lot. One day dad did catch me gnawing on a branch, but it has been rare. I only did it that time and once before. Of course he doesn't believe me!

Then this morning I thought he was going to play ball with me and he didn't. I showed him by heading in to the kitchen and promptly knocked a tin of cookies to the floor. He was pissed and called me a jerk cat. I didn't really care until he told me that I had been so naughty over the year that even if I had been nice this morning and for the next few days I couldn't make up for it. Now I'm afraid I won't even get my paper balls let alone my new butt!

Then, Amy gave me a box to get in, which you know how much I love to sit in boxes as I am the Box Cat!, and someone put about a million hangers in it. How the hell am I supposed to sit in it like that? I'm not beign naughty just to be mean. You have to cut me some slack as I am a cat.

And the capper was this week as Fred Taylor was wrongly passed over for the Pro Bowl. That stupid, buster Joseph Addai (The Mayor as dad calls him) made it and he has sucked this year. I think I'm going to quit watching football if it is always so wrong!

Well I guess I'm done venting for now. I hate to get all worked up so close to Christmas, but I can't help it. Maybe I'll go in there and put on some Christmas music and chill.

Oh, and one last thing. Amy told us last night that she is moving on December 28. I suppose that means I will be sleeping with mom and dad more. I hope I can be good so I don't get locked out. Actually Misses Hiney is the one who keeps getting me in trouble. She is trying to eat everything in sight and even chewing in to bags. She better knock it off or there will be trouble!

Merry Christmas to all!!!

December Football

Hi gang,
Well, things are definitely looking bad for my cat teams in the NFL. Oh sure, the Jaguars are doing pretty well, but they still can't beat those damn Colts!

In Detroit the Lions predicted 10 wins, but it looks like they might win 7 max as they have dropped 5 in a row. As for the Panthers, well they suck ouot loud and will not be going to the playoffs.

Around here, dad is all giddy about the Colts chances. He even has a new hat for the occasion. He's such a d-bag!

Hope everyone is ready for Christmas. Just a few short days until the big day is here. I pretty much get the house to myself for a couple of days then i hope mom and dad are going to Las Vegas again this year, but I haven't heard any talk of it!

For those of you who may not have heard, my sister Amy is moving out at the end of the month. I'll miss her but I know she is really anxious to get her own place so I'm glad for her. I don't know if I have to move out when I get older or not. Since I'm a cat, I might be able to stay here!

Love to all!

Seasons Greeting From Roo!

Meow everyone and a very Merry Christmas season to all of you!

Yes, it’s the holiday season again and I hope all of you remember the true meaning of the holidays, especially Christmas! Even if you celebrate Hanukah or Kwanzaa or even a Festivus for the Rest of Us keep your family and friends in mind and keep thoughts of those less fortunate in your mind as well.


Too many times we get caught up in the giving and getting at this time of year and we forget the real meaning of the time. I know it’s easy to do, but try! Heck, even I get a little giddy when mom or Amy puts the Christmas tree up. This year I have been hanging out under the tree quite a bit. Dad thinks I am up to something weevilish, but I really am just enjoying the tree.


Well that’s about it for now. And for those of you who are intent on making the holiday a commercial and/or giving success, here is a short list of things you can get me! Love you all!

Rooney

  1. Food. Something good, not the same old morsels I get now. Maybe some turkey.
  2. Nip. Even though dad doesn’t like me doing it.
  3. A new butt. Mine has a crack in it.
  4. Some Figgie pudding. Not sure what it is, but it’s in a song.
  5. No lockouts for the 12 Days of Christmas.
  6. World peace!
  7. A camera so I can catch dad doing things he doesn’t want on the Internet.
  8. A Carolina Panther jersey. Large in cat size.
  9. Paper balls. So many it drives mom crazy!
  10. Tickets to the cat fancier show.
  11. An IUPUI Jaguar T-shirt. Again, cat size large.
  12. An autographed picture of Michael Vick.

Why No Cats?

Dad is fond of saying it's either mine or something named Tom Klene's world and everyone else is just living in it. He says it would be awful if me and Tom ever met. I don't know what kind of cat Tom is but if we would clash I bet I would win. But I digress. If it is in fact my world then I have some questions!
 
Last night I was watching Dancing With The Stars with mom and dad. While some chick was dancing the somba I was doing my own version. I have to tell you, I was pretty damn good. I've got the rhythm and the footwork that puts those people to shame. I am also better looking and I even do my own makeup and hair. The next thing I know, mom is heading in to her computer room to vote for some guy named Julio. After the show dad voted for him as well.
 
So this morning I was getting on the computer to vote and I wanted to vote for myself. Unfortunately when I logged on to abc.com I was only given the choices of Helio?, Marie or Mel. Why couldn'd I vote for myself. I was just as good! Then dad explained to me that only those in the competition were eligible to receive votes. I told him that sucked and asked why. He just said that was the way it was and there was nothing I could do about it. Nothing I could do I cried! I thought it was my world!
 
Well I voted for Helio, not sure who mom actually voted for as there was no Julio. Then I told dad I wanted to be on the show next year. His answer was that I couldn't because it was Dancing With The Stars and not Dancing With The Average House Cat. Average!? How can I be average if it's my world? Then he told me that even if I was as famous as Morris (the Cat) I probably wouldn't get on because they don't have cats on the show. I find that patently unfair and something that needs to be changed.
 
So starting today I am getting up a campaign to get cats not only on Dancing With The Stars, but on many more programs and movies. Who's with me?! We'll take it all the way to Hollywood and we will be heard. Leave your name on the comment board and I will be getting a newsletter together and send it out to you all and we can win this battle and get the recognition we deserve!

Meow!

Hi everyone!
 
It's been a while since I posted anything and honestly I don't have much today either. Football season is going so-so for me and my cat teams. Dad is all bummed out about the Colts but I think it's funny that they suck! He sure has been taken down a peg. He's even given up his morning charade of waiting until after his shower to feed me in the morning. Still though, I give him so much mouth. After I eat I just laugh at him. He's such a pushover.
 
Anyway, things are going pretty well here. I've been kind of lazy as the weather has turned very fall-like. This is really a downer part of the year. Even the rustling of the leaves doesn't seem to be moving me this year. Usually I will sit in the window and watch them blow around and imagine being out there with them, rolling around and having a ball. this year I just feel sad for the approaching winter.
 
Well I'm going to get out of here for now. I hope next week's holiday finds me in a better mood. I'm going to try and snag some turkey and the trimings and have a nice time. I'll probably have the house to myself that day so that'll be nice!
 
Meow and out!

Happy Halloween

I know I'm a day late, but I wanted to pop in and say hi! You know it was my big day yesterday so I was doing some partying and the like. We had lots of trick-or-treaters last night, but no one dressed up like a black cat or even a lion. Kids aren't very creative any more I guess. All in all it was a pretty good day. That's about all I have right now.
Me and Misses Hiney are getting locked out just about every day any more. It is kind of hurting my feelings, but I will muddle through. And since you do most of the locking dad, GO PATRIOTS!

Football Suckery!

You know, I am really starting to get a case of the red ass about the damn Colts. Last week they beat up on my Jaguars and
