Man-Cat Monday: Tim's Training Tips!

Hi Furends 

Timmy here with some handy training tips.

Ms Fitz would you do the honors? 

Sure thing Timmy.

I will start with an overpaw swipe.

That was an excellent dodge but a bit too much.
Thanks, noted.

Sweep you off your... Darn, missed.
Be ready for an opponent.

No warning, right.
Right.

Me-YOOWW!
Whoa!

I let your motion carry you past me.
Oy-Meow!

But... but... I HAD you...
Someday Grasshopper, maybe someday.

Timmy Tomcat says
Practice me pretties!

Mancat Monday with Toby

Hey Cats. Timmy said it was a Man-Cat Monday post so I volunteered. I mean who is more Manly than me, Toby Tomcat. The Terror of the Cat-Toys! The Wrestlers Wrassler! The Wild Jumping Crazy Cat! Da-Bird Killer! Da Mousie Chewer!  

I must say I feel that something
is a bit off. 

I feel like there is a set of eyes on me.
What is all this then?

Toby Tomcat! How can you do a post
without ME! HMPH! I have been
watching you Strut!

Umm... Yes dearest Fitz sweety pie snoogums dear. I will make sure you are in all my posts from now on.

Just you wait till you are done playing with your blog pals. We are going to talk!

Yes Dear. Coming Honey. 
Well see you soon. Keep it very Manly.
Toby Tomcat (The Handsome One)

Settled In and Buddy Teaches!

Hi Furs and Friends!

We are all settled in, things are pretty much back to normal and we are starting to catch up with our friends posts. Finally! 

Dad asked us last week if we would like to do a little remodel of our Blog like the remodel of our home. We were a bit unsure of this. What if we loose things we love? 
Dad says that there are back ups and if we add pages the paw-sitive would be: 

• We could have  biographies
• A home for our Squillions
• Our Angels would have a page

We were fur-it, scratch-it, fur-it, scratch-it. Finally we just did a vote! Fur-it, Yay! We are adding pages. Keep a paw ready to click on them when they appear. Whew. Another project. At least we will not have to move. 

So today Buddy is going to take the stage! Go ahead Buddy!

Hey Catz! Yer Buddy Buddy Budd here.

Easy on Sunday and Purrayers for Olive

We are very sad to say that Sweet Olive has gone over the Bridge. She was Gracie of the Tabby Cat Clubs niece. Please send Purrayers and post her memorial if you would like. Fly free sweet Olive! 

Now we will relax a bit with some more photos of our fancy decorated Tomcat Home.

Dad, like most good cat caretakers, worries about our needs. Play, Food, Treats, Health, Sleep and, of course Hygiene.

We are six healthy cats with good appetites so there is quite a bit of, uhh, yes, plenty of that. We also have an elder who is a bit large who...

Buddy Budd: "Youz betta watcher itz Timmerz! Ah listenerz!"

YES Buddy. So Buddy is of a healthy size and needs room. We also have a few "standers." Dad really cannot figure this out as it is not spraying. Rather it seems to be a preference. Go figure. With all this taken into account he has tried the jumbo litter pans, the jumbo corner litter pans, hooded and un-hooded, you get the idea. All were good but not good enough. So what do you do. Well Dad made us a new pan! Go Dad!

He will tell you how to do the nice cushion at the doors if your peeps are interested. He said this was a prototype and will be used in the bedroom closet. He will make another fancy one for out here. Check it out.

Buddy checking if everything came out ok. MOL.

Buddy Budd: "Whut! Ah Listener! Gonna get-cha!"

Chill Buddy. I wanted to show that even with a very large container you are a very big cat.

With the big doors he finds it easy to reach in
and finish up. 

I like the double doors. You never have that trapped feeling.
The sides are high enough that our "standers" do not overshoot.

You can't really see the door edges. Dad cut tubing and hot glued it around so it is nice and soft. Nothing sharp. Cool. 

So we are just about back to normal. 

Toby is watching our Critter TV.

I am going to let Fitz watch for a bit. Dad has to get our
new Window seats made. Soon I hope.

We also like to play on the cat run. I am sneaking in Dad's
area while Fitz is scenting up the edges.

As you can see. Back to normal.

Rumpy is all chilled out.

After a day of play we all needed a good nap.

Shhh... Look at that Buddy! Goodness he is a Big Dood!

Dad wanted us to Plug his new Bissell Lift Off Floors and More
Pet Vac. He says it is great. We agree. Nice and quiet. The nasty
Hose Monster has not been seen.

So there you have it. We are back home and living large. Dad has planned a cat walk up on the walls with perches and cubbys to relax and snoopervise out of. We will keep you infurmed of his progress. 

Finally. Buddy Invites all of our Furends to visit his Secret Garden for a snack and to have fun. He won the best summer picture at the Russian Blue Lounge on Catster. We are proud of our Big Buddy Budd

Com-on overz and visiter! Ah gotz plenty good goodies fur-Ya!
Yer Buddy Budd iz a good Buddy ta have!
Yessir!
