Good men are hard to come by ...

... especially one who seduces his future playmate with Chop-a-lick-cious snacks that promise to take the pong out of your poo!

Cat quote of the day:
Essentially, you do not so much teach your cat as bribe him.

Alone again ... naturally

It's horrid being home alone ...

Mama Piggy has been clocking a lot of over time in recent weeks. And when she gets home, she logs on to the PC and does more work, or simply collapse on the sofa out of sheer exhaustion.



I don’t understand these two-legged beings. Why can’t they get their priorities right – i.e. spend more time with the ones they love (meaning moi) instead of trying to squeeze in more work every day? When will they realize that in trying to make a living, they forget to live?

Cat quote of the day:
A cat has absolute emotional honesty: human beings, for one reason or another, may hide their feelings, but a cat does not.
- Robert Herrick

Fur goodness sake ...

Papa Porky has, as always, threatened to make a fine pelt out of me ... Furr-get it, I say, over my dead body ...


I am not balding, it's just my belly button!

Cat quote of the day:
The really great thing about cats is their endless variety. One can pick a cat to fit almost any kind of decor, color scheme, income, personality, mood. But under the fur; whatever color it may be, there still lies, essentially unchanged, one of the world's free souls.
- Eric Gurney

The Kitty Strikes Back!

Beauty (left) and the Beast ...

Cat quote of the day:
It is a matter to gain the affection of a cat. He is a philosophical animal, tenacious of his own habits, fond of order and neatness, and disinclined to extravagant sentiment. He will be your friend, if he finds you worthy of friendship, but not your slave.
- Theophile Gautier

Never, never ...

... bite the hand that feeds you.

For she, cold with rage and bitter with venom, will take the most unflattering picture of you and post it on the web.

TGIF

The weekend is finally here! The humans get to take a break from their daily grind, and stay home to pander to my whims and fancies ...

Cat quote of the day:
No amount of time can erase the memory of a good cat, and no amount of masking tape can ever totally remove his fur from your couch.

Ear ear!

Mama Piggy's photo-taking skills suck. Big time. She loves to chop off the tip of my ear, just take a look at these pixs!




Oh great, now she wants me to stay purrfectly still while she attempts to frame me properly! Well, hurry up, woman ... I don't have the whole day!


And now where is my tail??? Hopeless, this Mama Piggy ...

Cat quote of the day:
The great charm of cats is their rampant egotism, their devil-may-care attitude toward responsibility, their disinclination to earn an honest dollar.
- Robertson Davies

The days are so slow

And it's only Tuesday! If only Friday is a yawn away ...

A cat is a puzzle for which there is no solution.

Catdiac arrest

A feline in Hougang Hills 09519 was reportedly a victim of the insufferable heat in Singapore for the past few days ...

Those afflicted with the involuntary comatose syndrome (as illustrated by the picture above) may exhibit some or all of the following symptoms:
- snoozing with eyes wide opened
- irregular twitching of whiskers
- rapid eye movement
- occasional drooling

There is no known cure for this affliction.

Cat quote of the day:
There are people who reshape the world by force or argument, but the cat just lies there, dozing; and the world quietly reshapes itself to suit his comfort and convenience.
- Allen and Ivy Dodd

In memory of Fluffy...

... my favourite green hair ball *sniff sniff*

I regret to report that Fluffy has since been disembowelled and pulverized beyond recognition. But it was of a delicate constitution to begin with ...


Fluffy in its happier days with moi ... R.I.P. Fluffy, we will miss you ... or maybe not.

Say, am I getting a replacement for Fluffy, Papa Porky? Make it a red one, thank you.

Cat quote of the day:
The cat lives alone, has no need of society, obeys only when she pleases, pretends to sleep that she may see the more clearly, and scratches everything on which she can lay her paw.
- Francois Rene

Cool place to hang out ...

... is on top of the fridge.

Here I can supervise the two pigs as they potter about the house ...


Stalk them ...


Make sure they fill my food bowl and water dish ...


Or simply laze around and while the hours away ...

La dolce vita ...

Cat quote of the day:

Cats are irresponsible and recognize no authority, yet are completely dependent on others for their material needs. Cats cannot be made to do anything useful. Cats are meant for the fun of it.

The purrfect Sarge

Here's an update on Little Hope, who was adopted by Mama's sister in January ... she's grown twice as big!



In case you're wondering why she is called Sergeant Hope (Sarge), take a look at her stripes :)



And I hear that she purrs non-stop, almost as if she is battery-powered!

Cat quote of the day:
If there were to be a universal sound depicting peace, I would surely vote for the purr. ~Barbara L. Diamond

The Incredible Sulk

She and the Porky have been feeding some longkang cats in the neighbourhood, it seems.

Staring incident

Home Mews, Feline Times, 23 January 2006

Report by Kitty Rulez, Petty Crime Correspondent

A staring incident between Papa Porky and Kootoo, the resident Monstah at Hougang Hills 09519, resulted in bloodshed and loss of superficial skin yesterday.



Papa Porky was severely mauled by du Monstah, who very nearly punctured Papa Porky's veins on his left wrist, and left a lovely 4 cm scar.

For his act of terror, du Monstah was put in a kitty restraint.



Cat quote of the day:
What is the appeal about cats?" he said kindly. "I've always wanted to know." "They don't care if you like them. They haven't the slightest notion of gratitude, and they never pretend. They take what you have to offer, and away they go.
- Mavis Gallant

Wet wet wet ...

Rats ... Mama Piggy gets new clothes for the Chinese New Year, but I get a bath for a softer, shinier and sweet-smelling coat and a clean arse ... It doesn't help that I have been leaving some lovely toffee-coloured poo stains on my behind. It's kinda tough trying to reach the arsehole with my short tongue, you know ...

Cat quote of the day:
When a cat chooses to be friendly, it's a big deal, because a cat is picky.
- Mike Deupree

Two shick pigs ...

Poor Mama Piggy. She came down with a viral flu and lost her voice.

Poor Papa Porky. He came down with gastric and indigestion problems.

I hope they get well soon.

I still need them to feed me, change my litter and rub my chin.

Cat quote of the day:
Thousands of years ago, cats were worshipped as gods. Cats have never forgotten this.
