Diets are For Losers

So, Daddy took Ollie into the V-E-T on Friday. The V-E-T took some blood and looked in Ollie's mouth. Ollie's bloods came back "perfect" but he has some tartars so Daddy has to start really getting better at brushing his teeth. BUT, the V-E-T also said that Ollie was overweight and our food should be limited to a half cup of dry foods a day per cat. A HALF CUP??? Come on... that's a snack... Well, Mr. Chen was so upset about the new diet that he was acting very dramatic to try and get Mommy's attention to fill the food bowl up again. He was jumping on the table while she was working. He was sitting in front of her computer. He was even rubbing back and forth on her legs and then trying to nibble her ankles and bit her leg! BUT, this is the best - then he MADE HIMSELF THROW UP! He got himself all worked up in a tizzy that he went over to the mat, right in front of where Mommy was working and with a one, two "horks" in, he threw up! Mommy thought he did this to give himself something to eat. But, he didn't even eat it. He just left it for her in protest.

Anyway, we think diets are dumb. Here is our hero... Princess Chunky. We bet SHE never had to make herself barf to get more food!

Full Monty Retraction

I am feeling sort of bad for um, well, exposing myself quite so boldly in my Full Monty entry for the 2008 Doing the Q contest being run again by my good buddy Monty Q. Maybe I got a little brazen for being one of last year's winner or maybe I was just not thinking straight but my sincere apologies if I offended anyone's delicate sensibilities out there. My super special sincere apologies to all the ladies - I hope I did not scar you by exposing my private bits. Perhaps I should have done this instead?


While I don't think I'm allowed to go in and change my entry, I would like to post some more modest Full Monty poses for you here on my bloggie. I hope these are more tasetful and again, I'm really very sorry if any kitty is offended by my hoo-ha shot...

Almost Wordless Wednesday

Ollie entered!

Sunday Chilling

It's supposed to be another scortcher here in the northeast so we're going to do what we normally do on Sundays anyway and sleep the day away. Hope everykitty and their beans stays cool!

P.S. Mommy knows of two woofies who need forever homes. Please help! If you, or anyone you know, are interested please get in touch.

Meet Tracker - a friendly 10 yr. old who was abandoned at Pet Smart by his owners for 8 weeks and they refuse to come pick him up. Tracker is good with other dogs and cats and is leash trained, house brokem and very calm. Won't you help Tracker find his forever home?

This is Nellie. She is a young pit bull who was rescued from her owners who were mistreating her. Can you help sweet Nellie fnd her forever home?

Table fun

Mommy put a tablecloth on the dining room table recently. Thanks, Mommy! That really makes it so much more fun for Ollie to do his table surfing and for both of us to roll around and wrassle. Hope everykitty has a very happy Saturday!

Blurpysitiing rates?

How many temptayshuns should I demand for all this blurpysitting??

Sad Week

Ollie and Daddy hugging

We are sorry we missed Kimo and Sabi's Birthday and other Independence Day fun but our mommy's Grandpa passed away on July 2nd and it's been a very sad and tough time here. You can read more about it on our blurpy sister's bloggie. Our mommy is very sad and it will be a very busy week for her and Daddy so we're sorry we won't get to visit you all as much as we'd like. Hope everykitty had a Happy 4th of July. Please hug your beans extra tight this week, ok?

Sad Saturday

We are heartbroken to hear the news that Emil has been missing since last weekend. We are so sorry we did not know this so we could add our purrs to all the purrs from others in the Cat Blogosphere to help his return. Regrettably, Mommy has not been very attentive to us lately and not been helping us blog so we did not know that he'd been missing since last Saurday. Mommy has been very bad because she and Daddy and our blurpy sister left last weekend for a trip to Gettysburg, PA (which is why we invited you all over for a last minute slumber party except mommy wouldn't let us say that they would not be home because she says not all people on the innernets are nice and might take advantage of this information) and then Mommy started back to work full time on Monday so she was too busy having leaky eyes and moping to help us blog. This new of Emil's disappearance is just so sad. At least he is keeping Ana company now and getting to see all those who have gone before. We send extra big hugs and purrs to the Cat Realm and the Maid and Butler at this tough time...

Fun Furry Friday

Happy Father's Day!!

We don't need a holiday to tell our Daddy how very much we love him. We show him everyday how special he is to us and how much fun he is and how much we care. But here are some photos of us spending Q.T. (Quality Time) with Dad...

Happy Father's Day to all the Super Daddies in the Cat Blogosphere!

Toesies Tuesday

Happy Toesies Tuesday everyone! Here I am showing you my clean white "tube socks" on my back legs and if you biggify, you can see my multi-colored toes.

Trip to the Philadelphia Zoo

Last weekend, Mommy and Daddy took a trip to the oldest zoo in America, The Philadelphia Zoo, which happens to be right in our backyard. Unfortunately, we did not get to go and they took the blurpy thing instead which seemed completely unfair to us but oh well. Mommy said something about a "no cats allowed" policy but we think that's ridiculous - it's a zoo for cring out loud!!! There are cats all over the place. Oh well... Maybe next time we will dress up in some of our sister's clothes and sneak in, too!

Anyway, they took some photos and showed them to us (gee, thanks). We thought we'd share them with you all - enjoy! Happy weekend to all our friends!

Daddy said this bear reminded him of Mr. Chen.
