Mancat Monday

video

Flynn: This is the other side of the hedge that goes around our garden. It joins on to the purrison fence so when we are in there, we can't get out again. You can see our little cat door in the green tin but mum hadn't opened it for us. When we walk around the fields sometimes we go back into the garden that way, and sometimes we go in the big gate with mum.
Eric: Yeah and take note near the end. Flynn hisses at me for no reason at all.
Flynn: You tried to sniff a smell I found before I had finished with it.

Annual Purrformance Review.

We have told our mum that it is time for her review. She is a bit worried about it and has been giving us extra treats all week. We won't be bribed though. Well not much, it depends how many treats we get.
Part 1:
Quantity of output: We can't really argue about the quantity, she does help us blog every day. We were going to give her Four Paws for that until we realised she had missed Saturday last week and that is unacceptable so we marked her down to Three Paws. Then we thought of all the lonely days when they deserted us for October and also two weeks in April. They also left us twice for weekend breaks, but to be fair, she did schedule posts for us then. We have to deduct points for April and October but if we take off one for every day that means she will be minus three hundred and eleventy nine points. We don't want to make her too disappointed so we will take off one paw per week so that brings her down to minus Three Paws.
Part2:
Quality of output: Overall it is not too bad as she takes her camera when she takes us for walks in the fields, and she takes lots of indoor photos too. She is often inconsiderate and takes photos of us bathing and even pooping at times. She should realise this is embarassing to us. For that reason we can only give Two Paws.
Part 3:
Client Pawticipation: She does provide means for us to be contacted. We have our own email address and she lets us use hers too. We can also be contacted in the comments. She also got us a Facebook account but didn't have a clue what she was doing, so gave that up as a bad job. We are quite happy about that though because we hear horror stories about Beans spending too much time there instead of helping their kitties blog. We give her Three Paws.
Part4:
Pawticipation (part 2): We do get to go to all the birthday pawties and Gotcha Days and enter some competitions. We haven't had a competition for a long time and she needs to do something about that. We give her Two Paws which we think is very generous all things considered.
Part 5:
Client satisfaction: We can only go by what we read in the comments and it seems that overall what we post is enjoyed. We give her Three Paws for that.
Part 6:
Overall rating, comments and suggestions:
We have worked out her average and we are afraid to say it is 1.4 Paws. This is just not good enough. We feel there is much room for improvement and it is the first section which let her down. We suggest she stops taking all her holidays and stays home with us. Without those holidays her average would have been 2.6, which while still nmot good, would have been a little above medium. We will allow her one weekend break without deducting points..
She can also improve by being more considerate in her choice of photo.

We hope she takes good note of all her failings as we expect much better of her next time.

Nip Overload.

Mum gave me some nip on my cat tree. (The tree Eric can't get his fat butt on.)
First of all I like to scrape it up a bit to release the heavenly smell.

Then I rub my head in it.

A bit more head rubbing just for good measure.

I get so excited that I put the bitey on the curtain.

It's a good idea to use your paw to make sure you've got the nip rubbed into your face extra good.

Make sure you hold on to your cat tree though. You don't want to fall off backwards and get laughed at.

Mum took this video of me, but I got so excited that I stuck my sharp claw in her hand. You can hear her say ouch. Haha!

Tail and Toesies Tuesday

Take that flashy box away. I'm not going to open my eyes.

I don't care if the flash is turned off, I'm not looking.

What did you say? You've got treaties?
