OH! SO CLOSE! I ALMOST CAUGHT A RABBIT!!!!

What a day I’ve had! This morning out in the back yard there was a rabbit trying to get through unnoticed, but my sharp eyes didn’t miss him and the chase started in the ivy.

The rabbit dropped something then made a run for it.

I gained on him but then he pulled away from me in the yuccas.

Oh, then I really gained ground until the rabbit leapt over the day lilies.

Crap! That leap cost me big time. I leapt over the lilies but by the time I caught up with that rascally rabbit he was almost through the fence.

All I caught was a bit of tail fluff. That was OK though. I made my way back to the ivy to see what it was he dropped. I had no idea what it was but I’d haul it into the house to play with anyway.

So I got these cool ears, a basket with this grass and some roundish things. That rabbit must have been pretty wealthy because these round things are personalized. Poor guy, his name was Cadbury. OMG! It says Egg on here. I took the poor guy’s children. I didn’t know rabbits laid eggs, I do know eggs have to be kept warm. I’ll slip these into Dad’s recliner so he can keep them warm. That will get me off the hook and Dad will never know until the little bunnies come bursting forth!

HAPPY SPRING EVERYBODY!

FINALLY SLEDDING!

We’ve had some odd weather. We had 15 minutes of a thunder and lightening snow storm. Now there are little bits of leftover snow and ice. I’m going to take
full advantage of it!
  

We don’t have any hills in our yard and this little slope is the best I can do. This is soooo wimpy!



Oooooffff! Ah crap, wiped out on a clump of grass. This just won’t do. There has to be a better way!!!



The view from the top of Mom’s van is fabulous! Oooh, this looks steeper from here than it does from the ground. Here goes nothing!

Wheeeeeeee!!!!!!

UH OH!!!

Umm, not the best thought out plan.

Will someone get me a ladder? How soon is summer?

I WISH IT WOULD SNOW!!! (Don’t tell Mom I said that!)

This is my favorite Christmas gift this year. I wanted one last year because we had so much snow.

Now I just need some snow. Snow and someone to pull me…. Why can’t somebody just pull me on the grass now?

Kea’we! Will you pull me? Please, please, puleeese?

Well, yeah, that means you’d have to put your ball down.
Comet! Comet! Come here Big Bro!

Comet, I’d like to ask a favor big brother…

Whoa! Whoa there Comet! Don’t be sniffin’ my lady bits!

Comet, you know you’re my favorite brother, will you pull me on my sled?

Comet? Comet? What do mean you hear the mailman? Ah, come on! Just pull me around the yard a couple minutes… Yeah, yeah I know you’re not a Sled Dog.

Now what. I guess I need Snow and a Big Hill. I’ll just take my sled back in the house…. Of course if Makamae is asleep and I tie onto her collar without waking her I could have one heck of a ride on the carpet! Must get inside and go into stealth kitty mode.
Hmmm, is it right to do that to another kitty? Hmmm… Mom! I wanna go in!
Hey! Don’t judge me! I’m a cat! We have cat morals after all. I’ll make up for it…. Promise! Heh, Heh, Heh…

Crap Makamae woke up. Uh Oh I hear…
“SK!! What are you doing! Oh Makamae what has SK done to you! SK what were you thinking! Naughty Kitty!”
…Mom. Gulp.
"You are so grounded little kitty. No treats, no sitting on the TV or the computer. Just wait until your father hears about this!”
Oh Boy…. So much for stealth mode. I may as well stop hoping for snow. I’m probably grounded until Spring.
Sigh…

Mele Kalikimaka!

Merry Christmas & A Very Happy New Year!

Mele Kalikimaka & Hauole Makahiki Hou!
I’m all decked out in holiday clothes. You’d think I was a Poodle or something. If I have to have accessories why can’t it be things like diamond collars? Oh well, I’ve got the spirit in me! Where’s the egg nog? I’d like to drop my new cat toy in it then fish around for a while… Wheee!

With Love & Best Wishes from Super Kitty and the rest of her fuzzy and not so fuzzy family

My Favorite Auntie!

My Cousin Cindie took this picture of my Auntie Glenna this summer at Cindie’s Birthday party. It makes me so jealous that she is so glamorous and has such a natural presence.

Why can’t I look that cool? Well why not?

Darn it! No matter what I do I’ll never have that Divatude! Auntie, you’re incredible!

Restaurant Pet Smart

Let's see; I'll have that Gold one and about a half dozen of those Striped ones... Could I have them whole with the skins lightly crisped and just a touch of soy sauce? Oh, my mouth is watering... What!!! What do you mean this isn't a restaurant? A Pet Store? Grrrrrrr... I thought we were at a five star restaurant and this was like the "lobster tank." 
I never get to have any fun... should have known... I thought when we went past all those different kinds of cat litter that it was a pretty classy joint that let you choose what kind of dirt you get to make mud pies in. 
I'm fuming! Someone's going to have a surprise in their shoe tomorrow morning. I want fish blast it all to pieces! I'm a cat! I have neeeeds! Meow! Meow! Meow! Hiss!

MY WOODLAND COUSINS MADE IT THROUGH THE STORM!

 Yeah! I’m so relieved to know my cousins are OK! Dad and his work friend Laura feed my cousins behind the building where they work.
This is Puffball, she has a bobtail like about half the Woodland family do.

Here are Little Bit and Sox. Little Bit is a really good Mom.

This is Scout. Don’t let Scout get to you, she likes to stare and is very good at it.

And here are Scout and Sox pretending they don’t know each other. You know, the way normal brothers and sisters do.

We were all glad to know the Woodland Kitty family made it through Hurricane Irene safely. It is scary when people and animals are out in the wild in the catastrophic weather.
Mom says people underestimate nature’s power all the time and never give it enough credit or enough space. She really has a thing about people rebuilding homes in flood plains (Remember she’s a Geologist) or building on sand right at the oceans edge. She say’s it might sound cliché but nature will find a way and it might very well be the way right through the living room.

Please take Hurricanes, Flooding and Earthquakes seriously. Be safe, not sorry. 
     Aloha from Super Kitty!
PS. The same goes for our Ohana in Hawaii. We hope you will always be safe from Hurricanes, Flooding, Volcanic mayhem and Earthquakes. Malama pono!

HURRICANE BREAKING NEWS!

WE’RE HAVING A HURRICANE!

This is Super Kitty bringing you the latest breaking news on Hurricane Irene. It is 3:25 PM and we still have electricity! Lake Patrick behind me has breached its banks. The grapes are flooded and soon the onions will be history!

Here’s Lake Patrick. The mulch is on it’s way to the front yard. 

There are branches coming down from the maple tree. Mom brought us all outside because there was finally a let up in the rain (six inches so far) and the puppies had to pee. They don’t get to pee in the house like Makamae and I do. Dogs, they just don’t know how to negotiate the perks!
It was a quick trip though and we were back in the house.

Stuck in the house.


May as well get some TLC from my big brother Comet. He is a good brother.


Then spend some quality time with Makamae. She has to do the “I’m so cute” crap. Mom’s a pushover for it though. That is a good thing for all you kitties out there to remember. Cute = Puppet Master.

Look at that; giving Mom the half squint ooh I love you eyes. Behind my back no less. Makes me look bad. I’m going to say hi to Kea’we.

 
Kea’we is such a good listener, even if she would carry me around the house by my neck. Now I have to get back to my hurricane coverage. So hopefully I’ll have more pictures later if I’m not blown away.
By the way my dakine fashion raincoat is courtesy of Ziplock Freezer Gallon. I’m sure the ZFG logo is trademarked.

Mom’s Paws

 
Today I’d like to talk about Mom’s Paws. She’s  not here so I can say anything I want…. Her Paws Are Gigantic! Plus you humans have to know how it gives us furries the big eyes when we see your furless skin. It isn’t natural. Dad takes most of the fur off of his face and Mom takes all of the fur off of her legs. Brr, don’t human’s all know how much more attractive they’d be as a soft  Grey, Calico, Tortoise Shell or of course Orange Tabby?
 
People paws just aren’t as functional as our paws. We jump, climb, shred the couch – all in a days work! Our paws do fine. Ever hear humans walk barefoot? Hilarious! I wish I could imitate the sounds people make… Auwe! Auwe! Auwe!  Or Ow! Ow! Ow!  Just go to the beach on any hot sunny day and watch someone go across the sand barefoot. Their arms go up and they lift their legs extra high then they do a dance across the sand yelling “ooh’s”, “oowww’s”, and sometimes words Mom won’t let me say! I promise you’ll laugh ‘til your tummy hurts. Just look at Dad’s paws here, all tender.
 
As you can see Mom wears shoes out. If she likes them when they fall apart she puts them back together with Liquid Nails and clamps or Gorilla Glue. How do the make nails liquid anyway? And if they are liquid how do they hold stuff together? Wouldn’t screws work better?
Mom was mad at the Shoe Balance company because that gray pair of shoes was only worn 10 times when the side blew out during the Kona Marathon. What Mom needs is a Shoe Sponsor! So Companies like New Balance, Avia, or Rockridge can send applications to to my e-mail address….Oops, I don’t have one. Anyway they can contact me here. Companies like Jimmy Choo, Ferragamo  or Manolo need not apply! This is my best idea ever!!!

Here’s what I mean. Mom likes hiking shoes.           

Not these boots. Hey, I’m Puss In Boots! OK Boot. I need a sword! I find this kind of cozy myself.  

Mom has other shoes she likes to walk in, she loves these.
But she doesn’t ever wear this kind to go out hiking or walking. I’m not sure why. They sure look airy and cool.
Next time we have snow I’m going to pretend I’m sledding! Whee! Wheee!!!
OK , A sponsor would need Mom’s shoe size. I don’t understand shoe sizes. I think Mom wears a 38 um D. Uh Hmm, Oh maybe that is bra size. Hmm, yeah that is bra size but that is the size Dad wishes Mom’s bras were. Huh. Tonight when Dad leaves his laptop I’ll go on Amazon and add 38D’s to his “Wish List” Mom and Dad will be sooo proud of me!  Shoe sizes and Bra sizes are so similar. I wonder if women have something like that thing that measures their paws at the shoe store to measure their breasts. Do they buy bras by length and width? Mom likes a wide shoe. I wonder if they make a 38W.  I’m a free spirit, they will Never make me wear a bra!
 
I’m going to have to look at Mom’s shoes.
Wow, Mom wears Men’s shoes! That is OK, when no one is looking I eat dog food. It is yummy. Bonus it makes Kea’we mad! Oh, good times!


Told you she had HUGE PAWS! I’d better be nice to Mom she has paws like Godzilla! Ahhh, Screaming Army guys running as the great gray doom descends upon… Nothing can help you now…. Ahhhh!  Momzilla! Noooo!
Does anyone know…. Is this stuff really made out of Gorillas?

Mom just saw my post!!!! I’m in big trouble!!! 
Mom’s face is red and she is mumbling about “Yeah my feet are big, but I don’t have small breasts!”  Then something about a sea not being exactly a pancake. I'm confused and I don’t think I’ll be getting any treats tonight.
