new cat behavior

 We had an interesting weekend.  It was a long one, so mom and dad were at home working on stuff.   I ended up getting some awesome outdoor time.   I know that it won't be very long before the weather starts getting cold and icky, so we're enjoying every bit we can get.

 

Mom fusses over Jonesie's gardening skills, but I'm pretty darn good at it too.  While Madison snoozes in the bushes and Figaro exposes his belly, I actually do a bit of  work.   Today I helped mom pick the first root vegetables of the year!  Where was Jonesie?   Yeah...that's right.  Nowhere to be found.

 Jonesie may have watched over these babies, but now that it's harvest time, I'm all over it.  Yeah mom...pull that one.  Yeah, the tasty looking one.

 

Mom pulled carrots, turnips, parsnips and rutabagas and roasted them along with our homegrown garlic and onion.

 

Good thing she didn't toss in a little ginger!  Ha!

 

And guess what?  Tomorrow is our 4th Blogoversary!  Time flies when your gossiping having fun!

  

 I love my brother Madison.   He's old and he dodders around, but he does alright for being 16.  I hope I'm doing as well as he is when I'm his age. 

 He wandered over to the birdbath water bowl to take a drink.  Why is it that I had no interest in the dish until I saw him drinking out of it.  Age before...uh...whatever...

 Move over dude...

You did not see me push my brother out of the way. Nope.  Not at all.

 We finally got some hot weather!  It was about 90 degrees on Sunday...and you know what that means.  Lots of garden time and grinding dirt in my furs.

 But I wouldn't be me if I didn't have a little dirt to share...if you know what I mean.   See...mom was looking for my brother Madison.  He doesn't go out much and when he does he stays within a couple of feet of our shop.   So when mom didn't see him in his normal spot, she went looking.   But before she saw anything...she heard it.  Snoring!  Coming from the garden bed!   And when she peeked in...there was Madison, sawing major Z's...pink tongue sticking out and everything.  I think mom squeeeeed a little bit.

 She was a little late with the camera so all she got was a picture of a bleary eyed Madison, waking up from his summer nap in the garden

 Hey there gossip fans, Ginger here!  Back from my stint as official gossip columnist for Real Housecats of the Blogosphere!

Back on the home front...we got OUTDOOR time this past weekend!!!!  Woo hoo!   It's been months and months of being cooped up and closed up.  Turns out the little evil woofie next door who was cramming himself under the fence moved away.  Good riddance bone breath!!!

We got snoopervised time in our yard and we all were thrilled even if the pawpawrazzi followed our every  move. 

Ginger, where have you been?  I've missed you!



Whoa Madison, you won't believe what's been going on behind the scenes at The Real Housecats of the Blogosphere!  I mean, when I signed on to be the gossip columnist, I thought "cool"!!!   But really, what cat would trust me with any good information...everyone knows I'm a tattletale...I can't keep anything to myself.  But then...there are cats there from all around the world...they don't know me.

Hah!

I have it on good authority...(our sister Bennette) that Kite is really from Las Vegas.  See, Bennette's boyfurriend Sylvester, from the Katnip Lounge, lived at the vet for quite some time waiting for a forever home.  While he waited, he saw lots of cats come and go...and he knows "FOR A FACT" Kite came in to be treated for an "undisclosed illness"...hmmmmm....she apparently had a show at an off the strip casino.

Oh wow Ginger!  Tell me more!!!  This is terribly exciting!



Well, maybe...but you gotta promise not to tell ANYONE!!!!  I've already told you too much.

Uh oh, here comes Figgy...act casual!

  

Huh...did I hear my name?
