Catching squirrels? He has to be kidding.

Hello, humans,
Acorn here.
Elfstone wouldn't be able to catch a squirrel anyway. Don't let him fool you.
Time to whip him into shape and whap his butt for misleading you. Excuse me
for a moment. (Cloud of dust ensues)

Nuts!

We are parked in the garden watching squirrels go crazy in the lawn. They are hauling nuts and other goodies around and bouncing all over the lawn furniture and other things the humans are putting out there, exploring every time something gets moved,
and trying to bury nuts. Occasionally one of them will get distracted, and start eating instead of burying. Then when caught they will "act casual, I meant that" and
start burying again.

Or they fly over the fence when they catch one of us sneaking up on them. Darn. They are too good at noticing this.

So I caught a bird instead of a squirrel last night.

Regards,

ZZZZZZZ.....

We are sitting at home on a wonderful cloudy early autumn day before the humans get home.

We want them home NOW.

they will surrender to the sleep vibes falling thick and fast!

Resistance is futile!

Acorn and Elfstone

"There's a giant kitten in the closet!"

That's what my human said when she was up rummaging this morning, listening to the soft rain outside, and found me happily curled up on the big overstuffed gray box, nestled under some of her things, in a nice dark place with the sliding door part way open. I go there from time to time for happy naps after I've been up before dawn trying to wake her up Cuz It's Morning!!!

Now, I think my human has extra sharp ears because I heard her say she found me when she heard me snore. She can't possibly have meant THAT. I don't snore. I just breathe a little loud.

Luvvv and warm fuzzies,

Cats in the rain

It has been an odd couple of weeks in our normally uneventful household. First, the heat. Then, some people came and made lots of noise and one of our trees disappeared.

Our humans watered and watered during the heat.

Now, it's pouring. Elfstone woke My Human up when he brought a mouse in yesterday. He has been eyeing the rabbits on the other side of the fence. The Other One picked him up while we were talking to the neighbor and all he could think of was to get down and somehow get over the fence.

More later. We gotta keep those humans in line.

Yours sincerely,
Acorn Oakmist

Wake up call

Darn human-mom caught me in the bathroom trying to leisurely eat my latest um, accomplishment, before I thought anyone was stirring this morning.

That woke up the other human and together they raised such a stir that I had to take my dinner back outside and finish it under the patio table.

I did yowl a protest instead of my normal "feed me" squeak, but my mouth was kinda full at the time so less of an impact....

sulk...

Later when they were madly zipping around I was so full I just kinda lay there on the bedroom rug and made them step over me.

Oh? Leftovers? Who, me? What leftovers? Oh, those inedible bits under the table? darn, you noticed...

Regards,
*burp*,

Many thanks from the Dynamic Feline Duo to the Cool Housesitter Human. We got along very nicely, as usual. We cast wistful looks at her when she packed up to leave. Now we are back to fussing happily over Our Humans once we got over the idea that maybe we could have three permanent humans on staff instead of two. We are parking next to them, making sure they have every opportunity to let us in and out of human doors, and the usual welcoming committee activities.
