WALK YOUR DOG DAY ~ OUR NEWEST "GRAND" DOG

 While JUNE remains the one-and-only and yes, very special kitty cat in this family ...

my extended family is one of many dogs!  There is Dougie Dog, the chocolate lab [not pictured today].

And down in the Sunshine State, we have the amazing Chewy, a big and handsome Samoyed, his 

furry, fluff of a sibling Fiona, also a Samoyed both who share a home with my son and daughter in law.

Today, we introduce the newest and youngest ~

Winnie, an English Cream retriever, adopted not long ago by my

granddaughter and her long time significant other.

Winnie joined little Xander, the Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and

she finds herself "at home" sometimes in Tampa, sometimes in Gainesville

[where her two paw-rents are each in medical school] ...

or sometimes, when those paw-rents are on overload with their respective studies,

she may spend time with her cousins Chewy and Fiona

in Orlando as in the photos below ...

one big furry-dog happy family!

CHALLENGE

That was last Sunday, if'n you happen to remember, or happened to stop by.
Mine Mommy had set up several, well, three to be purr-cise, challenges for me, and
normally I am challenged ~ and take her up on each and every one!

But, t'was Sunday, easy Sunday [again to be purr-cise] and I much purr-ferred to have
an easy Sunday cozyrelaxingquietdonotdisturb nap.  And so it was.

But that mouse, that danged little mouse sat there, and sat there,

day after day after day, until I really couldn't take it anymore!

I mean what's a girl to do?  What would you do?

Challenge accepted.  Attack.  Challenge met.

Mouse deaded.  Gone. **

Next challenge please.  

I'm on a roll here ...

Meowz.

** actually I think mouse is back in my toy basket and little step stool back in mine Mommys' closet

 

ARE WE READY?

Ready to go.

Then again,

maybe not.

 

PRESIDENTS' DAY

 

TO DO or NOT TO DO IS MY PURROGATIVE

It's kinda sorta common knowledge that mine Mommy likes to give me challenges.

And it's kinda sorta also common knowledge that I usually take her up on those challenges.

Right? Right!  Well, some days I do.  And then there are those days that I don't.

This is gonna be one of those days.  I'm a cat.  I do what I want when I want.

And what I don't want to do I don't do.

Meowz.

FELINE FRIDAY, ALL EYES ON YOU

 

JUST RIGHT

 

My name is not Goldilocks.  

My name is June.

But like her, sometimes mine Mommy 

gives me a box "that is too small".

And sometimes mine Mommy 

gives me a box "that is too big".

But I think this box "looks just right".

I'm thankful for this box.

THANKFUL THURSDAY

PLEASE DON'T DO THAT

June, please don't do that.

Do what?

Look up like that.  I know you're trying to get me to look up.

So.  Did you look up?

I'm not telling.

Betcha did.  I gotcha didn't I?

I always do!

Meowz.

WORDLESS or WORDY WEDNESDAY

 

COOPERATION

You have a cat.

All you asked for was a nice photo to post to their blog for Happy Tuesday.

A little cat cooperation.  You even offered a treat.

Anything?  Not!

You know what I'm talking about, don't you?

I guess for the cat Tuesday is no different from any other day.

So you take what you get, right?

That's our definition of cooperation.

HAPPY TUESDAY

 

"CHICA GENIAL"

 Couldn't find my Ravens on the field last night,

but I mean to tell ya friends,

when Bad Bunny showed up ... I was a real fur real,

"chica genial".

AWWW MONDAY

DIY, DIM, DIFM

S'riously.  There are two ways to enter my blankie basket.  DIY ~ "do it yourself", or purrhaps better said as DIM being "do it myself", but then I'd never want to be thought of as "dim" in any way, shape or form!  Or the one I really prefer, DIFM ~ do it for me!  This morning I am opting for the latter ~ after all, it is Easy Sunday and why should I have to work at anything?  And getting into my blankie basket by way of the DIY [or the DIM] method is generally a long, tedious, multi-paw process, and I'll not bore you with those details.  

S'riously.  I sit and wait.  For mine Mommy to simply lift up a corner of the polka dot blankie, easy peasy, allowing me to jump up and in, the aforementioned DIFM method ~ but where is she?  Here I sit, waiting.  Waiting.  For her to notice me.  See me.  Come to my assistance.  Do her job.  Her assigned duty.  Her responsibility to her June.  DIFM mine Mommy.  At this rate I'll be here all day.  Meowz.  

HI

 

THANKFUL THURSDAY: LEGS and FEETZ

June!  Please do not use the table leg as a scratching post.

Just look at all the little scratch marks you've already left on it ...

Sorry, meowz.

I meant to scratch on your leg right next to it ... meowz. 

Well, I'll thank you not to scratch upon my leg either!

Your feetz maybe?

No! Not!  Thank you very much.

Mentioning feetz ... within less than "one feetz" you have at least three

real scratchers, I'd be thankful if you'd use one of those!

Legs.  Feetz.  Chairs.  Tables.

They're all kinda sorta the same to me.

Meowz.

THANKFUL THURSDAY

 

WORDY WEDNESDAY

 Oh, hi June.  

Did you want something, little one.

No, thank you. Meowz.

But why are you just sitting there, staring at me, 

like you want something?

Because I can.

Meowz.

HAPPY TUESDAY

I got nothin'.

Sorry.

Yeah.  Today, mine Mommy will kinda sorta ignore me while she does boring

stuff like laundry, and her home delivery grocery order and maybe some dusting which

will make me sneeze and all this 'n' that will mean she'll furget my lunch time so I'll have to do

my meowz out loud over and over and over again

to make her remembers

and yeah, it's s'posed to be Happy Tuesday

but fur real, it's not usually my happiest day of the week cause like I said

I got nothin' and I get nothin',

and besides she'll have the news on all days long and that doesn't make anybody happy these days!

so ... meowz.

HAPPY TUESDAY

... maybe ...

 

SWEATERING

Mine Mommy said I have a built in sweater

but right now it's advisable to add an extra layer of warmth.

AWWW MONDAY
