THIS MONTH IS:  FATHER'S DAY

QUOTE OF THE DAY:  "I want to congratulate all of the men out there who are working diligently to be good fathers whether they are stepfathers, or biological fathers or just spiritual fathers."  T.D. Jakes

My siblings are weird.  They don't bark.  They whine "meow".  They slink and sneak around and jump on furniture and counters.  I am allowed on furniture but not counters.  And oh how I have tried to get up on a counter.  Sorry dad.

When Mickey and Minnie are outside on the porch and they hear that noisy machine in the house that sucks up dirt and hair and whatever else it goes over, the cats run into the house where the machine is.  Don't they know they are safer outside?  Dumb cats.  I am not afraid of that machine.  I used to try and play with it, but mom quickly nixed that idea. 

My sibs play a game with dad for their evening treats.  They meow and whine and then dad throws a treat on the floor and they chase it.  Me.  I sit pretty and dad just gives me my treat with no tricks.  Again, dumb cats.

Of the two, Minnie seems to be the smarter and braver one.  She drinks out of MY water bowl.  She's even stuck her face in a bowl mom has obviously placed on the floor for me.  That's okay because I've already licked the bowl clean.  I like cleaning the dishes and helping mom out.  Minnie likes to sniff me.  Sometimes we are nose to nose.  I like her.  She is so cute and playful.

Minnie doesn't seem to mind too much when I chase her.  Sometimes she stops running and rolls over on her back.  That's a sign she wants to play.  But when I put my paw on her tummy, mom yells at me.  She said I could hurt Minnie.

Mickey always hisses at me so I don't chase him a lot.  When I do, he jumps on furniture I can't reach or he hides under the bed.  He also bats his paw at me and hits my nose.  Mom laughs so I let him do it.  And all the while I'm thinking if I swat back at him, he will go flying across the room.  I wonder if mom would laugh then.

Thunder is really scarry.  I hide under mom's or dad's desk.  The cats roam around like it's nothing.  Let them get hurt by thunder.  I know I'll be safe.
