01/18/2021 – A Talk with Tessa

Recently, the Dad and Tessa sat down together and had a talk, a kind of State of the Union address conversation in which the following topics were discussed:

  1. The timing and variety of food being offered, including food bowl etiquette and cleanliness.
  2. Box habitation – Seniority verses perceived adorableness.
  3. Reopening talks and negotiations with allies – Why?
  4. Why Tessa is the best cat ever. With lengthy, multi-layered examples.

All in all, it was a good talk, perhaps a bit one-sided, but no one openly accused the other of intentional wrongdoing. It would seem the future going forward just may be bright. We’ll be sure to thank Tessa for that.

This past weekend reminded us how very dear our Friends of Colehaus are to us for helping support us through these times of Covid-19 and economic struggle, with a delivery of the cat litter all the Colehaus cats love the best – Dr. Elsey’s, with Quint’s canned food, a huge bag of Iams kibble for everyone else (Mom and Dad excluded), and a very welcomed box of Tazo tea.

We are extra excited about a case of Hunt’s tomato sauce. Now just wait, you out there who might be thinking, “What? WHAT???” Or something along the lines of, “How sad are these people who publicly announce their excitement over some donated cans of tomato sauce?”

And we’ll fire right back saying, “Just hold on a second there. We LOVE tomato sauce!” We put tomato-based sauce on everything (we draw the line at breakfast oatmeal). If that makes us odd, then we don’t want to be normal. THANK YOU, you wonderful person, who sent us tomato sauce from our Amazon wish list! THANK YOU!

01/15/2021 – Olivia Says

So, Mom was certain she finally, FINALLY, had Blooper Friday right. It’s today, or so she thought. And she had a good blooper photo. But Olivia had other ideas, mainly being she had dirt to dish on her siblings and she tells Mom everything. While Mom was crafting a blog post out of thin air, one that may or may not have featured one certain sleek black house panther, Olivia butted her way into view.

Mom! Mom! I have something to tell you!

What, Olivia? What is it? And make it snappy. I’m working here.

You know that old Christmas Yeowww toy you dug out for us to play with around Christmas? Well, someone chewed a corner off and then, barfed on it.

Great. Was it you? Did you do it, Olivia?

Was it me? You mean, did I chew the corner? Or did I barf on it? I don’t barf on toys. Don’t you know that about me, Mom? How long have we been together and have I just once barfed on a toy? Any toy? No, I’m not a toy-barfer.

Okay, fair enough. So you chewed off the corner and then, someone else barfed on the toy? You know, after you chewed off the corner?

I’m just telling you, absolutely, Mom, I did not barf on that toy. Or any toy. There’s no doubt I didn’t do the barfing.

*sigh* Yes, I get that. But you did chew off the corner? That’s what I’m trying to get at. It was you, right?

Me? Who barfed on the toy? No! It was not I. No way, no how. I’m just letting you know it wasn’t me. Don’t shoot the messenger here, Mom. I’m just telling you the facts.

Hmm, it would appear you are leaving one of the facts out, and since I’m posting your blooper photo today, I can only guess why that might be.
