Kitty Swinging on Ceiling Fan

I've GOT to get my humans to install one of these in the living room!

A Haiku that Every Cat Must Read!

Today I read a poem that was written by another cat. This cat is like the Maya Angelou of cats. He wrote things that have been on my mind. It's like he's reading my mind. Here it is:

cat haiku

You never feed me.
Perhaps I'll sleep on your face.
That will sure show you.

You must scratch me there!
Yes, above my tail!
Behold, elevator butt.

The rule for today:
Touch my tail, I shred your hand.
New rule tomorrow.

In deep sleep hear sound
cat vomit hairball somewhere
will find in morning.

Grace personified.
I leap into the window.
I meant to do that.

Blur of motion, then --
silence, me, a paper bag.
What is so funny?

The mighty hunter
Returns with gifts of plump birds --
your foot just squashed one.

You're always typing.
Well, let's see you ignore my
sitting on your hands.

My small cardboard box.
You cannot see me if I
can just hide my head.

Terrible battle.
I fought for hours. Come and see!
What's a 'term paper?'

Small brave carnivores
Kill pine cones and mosquitoes,
Fear vacuum cleaner

I want to be close
to you. Can I fit my head
inside your armpit?

Wanna go outside.
Oh, poop! Help! I got outside!
Let me back inside!

Oh no! Big One
has been trapped by newspaper!
Cat to the rescue!

Humans are so strange.
Mine lies still in bed, then screams;
My claws are not that sharp.

Thank you, poetic cat, wherever you are. You are the hero of cats everywhere in our quest to be understood by our humans. I hope your human starts waking up in the middle of the night to feed you.

Well, it's almost been 90 days since I moved into my new house. I've already taken it over. I've started to wake my mom human up at 5:15 every morning. She tries to pretend she's asleep but I won't play her games. When I'm hungry, I'm hungry and I'm not going downstairs alone while it's dark out!

The other week my humans bought me a house with soft sides to play it. It's like a cube with three holes in it with ribbons hanging from the top. That is, until I tumble in it and then suddenly the top is the bottom. It's alot of fun. I hang out in there all the time.

I've been a bit disappointed with Max. I thought he liked playing with me, but lately he seems to just ignore me. It takes so much effort to get him to play with me. I guess I'll just have to show him who's in charge.
