The Friday File: PAWS 4 Thought - RNR

Hello MY Darlings!

Well how are you? "Are you dragging your paws, you just want to have a nap...have you been up late chasing too many mice...ummm yes, I thought so"! The evenings are drawing in..shorter!!!

A lot of emails this week on MY cat computer , on the same complaints from both human, and feline community.  Interesting furnominum: felines are picking up the human energies and reading each others body language!

This has given me PAWS4THOUGHT!

Looking at the cat calender it is November firs!!! I'v had my Secretary chasing her tail in circles:  Running out shopping to send my cat cousins gift to over the duck pond in England;  Running back to the theatre getting new costumes for the Christmas parties; making lists and checking them.  She even makes jewellery in her spare time (I had no idea - maybe knew)?? InspiredDesigns4YOU


It wasn't until I was a night-owl on the prowl myself and caught her with the light on!  I tippy toed in a crouching position - 'stealth mode'. While her back was turned bend over the work table...I let out a roar of a MEOW -- "You are a NIGHT OWL -it's now confirmed". (Purring with great satisfaction).   I wondered why the raccoon eyes at 9:00 a.m. ummmm!

Diva: I have Intuition don't you know!

The reaction was quite PURFECT!  She literally jumped out of her human skin, like a rice paper image you often see on fine exquisite candy (Snickering). Her Gin and tonic no more! LOL *^..^*~

Target: Spotted

 





Life Skills Update:

Life can make us extremely busy, chasing our tails in circles...(yes, you humans too). Clients have said  "I try to  over  accomplish,  working long hours, too many errands this time of year" Too many catnip balls, yes, I have to be on the alert too for this!

(•.¸♥´).(•.¸♥t.@^..^@ ! (´*•.¸♥¸.•*    )   Reminder to build in a "RNR Cat Day"  (Rest and Relaxation) into you routine, especially if you are working at home, or have an cottage industry or self-employed.  If you work 7 days a week, set aside Friday as the RNR day(•.¸♥´).(•.¸♥t.@^..^@ ! (´*•.¸♥¸.•*    ).    PAWS and EFFECT.....its all about PURSEPCTIVE after all MY darlings.

Let me DIG IN!

 

There are a lot more HUMANS trotting...ummm (sometime I marvel how they actually stand up right on two feet..^..^) the urban streets today, since my last blog post! Beat the Heat

RE Laxing!

The sweltering humidity has gone! (Not like we cats can unzip our coats like a raincoat LOL).... At 3 a.m. I put my nose to the window and smelt the 'new air' enveloping my whiskers and tickling them till I was giddy!!

Best of Furry Friends!

Don't for get to bring your KITTENS and PUPPY friends along to visit.  A little respite ....  

Cat Napping Diva Style

The Friday File: Beating the Summer Heat _ Diva Style

Welcome!

Hello MY Darlings!

Well, I hope you are enjoying the summer so far.

Even the window is hotter than NORMAL!

It is hotter than a 'cat on a hot tin roof' outside!!!

Here in MY studio I'm just right! Not much human traffic outside today, unless they are in their cars!!!                                     

I wash my whiskers sparkly clean
 as I reflect how lucky I am!

Fresh H2O for Kitty 

The sun is shining, with it's warm inviting face, MY body benefits from rays. When it gets a bit too much I shift PAWS around to the end of the table, where the air conditioning is!

  
Oh, MY secretary has just bought me a delicious offering.  In a moment I'll  dunk face first into my water bowl with an ice chips (don't lap up too quickly other wise you'll get tummy ache)........I guess I have trained her well ^..^!

Favorite playmate! Now you see it NOW you DON'T

I think I'm going to have MYSELF a lazy day!

Tin Man you have to hydrate!

With some friends!!!!

I follow DIVAS advise

                 



                                            
 10 ways to BEAT the HEAT!

1.  If you do go out find a shady spot;
2. Don't stay in the sun for too long, take your umbrella;
3. Bring along a friend, they can bring along ice-cream;
4. Dive into a kids wadding pool (paddle with the best of them);
5. Humans, DON'T leave feline or canines unattended in the car (or children for that matter); Double check your car before locking... retrieve your companions!
6. Excessive panting means drink MORE, keep cool.....be sensible;
7. Go out BEFORE 'High Noon' or 'After dinner'...great for walking  on     the Beach;
8. Make sure your SECRETARY brings food, water and cold face cloth;
9. Pack a little extra just in case you see a feline or canine without   

Enjoy your Summer!

If you stay in..you might do what I do..........go for a SPA!

Pamper YOURSELF with ATTENTION!

DIVA has it made!

There are more treats in store..follow the DIVA!!!

                           A little personal note:  We wish little "Dundas" the lion kitty ...

                                            all the very best as he continues to heal.
                                                                  A round of PAWS to his

                                                                            great team at

See  you next time ^..^!

The Friday File: Going Incognito - or How I Escaped the Wardrobe Mistress!

Well Hello MY Darlings!

Welcome to the Friday Files!

If you have stumbled upon this, or just grabbed a bowl of milk, or decided to escape from your HUMAN...you've come to the RIGHT PLACE.

Five minutes to myself: Theatre Life is so DEMANDING!

Rest your PAWS travel into the TARDIS,

(escape, escape...) to the worm hole, rabbit hole, wardrobe or in the Church they call it 'Rood Screen'.

Incognito Strategy

In the Theater the prop department simply calls it "THE SCREEN"! Darlings...don't kid yourself; we know "privacy screens" aren't all that they are cracked up to be. You don't even get time to practice a decent ARIA!!

  
Be aware of the of the "Dreaded Wardrobe Mistress".

I call her the Wicked Wicked Witch:

YOU are under MY SPELL!

Everyone knows the power SHE wields.  Like Betty Davis, an intellect with cunning resources. She WILL  hunt you down like Sherlock Holmes, THINKS before you do!

I even got on the catline to my cousin "Sammy" a master of disguise in his own right (said "I can't compete with her, I'm at loose PAWS")!



Now you would think, with ALL years of training I could out smart her; out scream her, out wit her..or does she know me too well?

Well....life is a bit like this:
 

Does this sound familiar: 

"Human Mummy says, kids leave me alone for a moment, kids say....you aren't paying me enough attention".

MY Secretary says “Diva it’s dinner time, come and get it” Diva mutters in cat whisper...(where is the mute button for for that grating cutter voice).. Is there NO PEACE!?

I'll make myself invisible

Sush: Don't give away the PAWS

The Wardrobe Mistress says: "Diva stop being a Drama Queen! If your costume is tight ...you shouldn't have eaten that plateful of sardines last night…I warned YOU”.   

 Diva replies “Oh leave me alone, I just want to hide”.

Hints for being effective at INCOGNITO:  

1. When trying not to be found out, DON'T STICK your paws BELOW the wooden screen;
2. Make sure you EAT so your stomach doesn't rumble a freight train!
3. Any voluntary body twitching from dreaming..... WILL result as a dead giveaway;
4. Get the prop department to build a drop stairway so you can ESCAPE like Houdini;
5. Use your understudy and bribe him or her as necessary! 
6. Make sure the Wardrobe Mistress isn't reading Houdini before YOU! 
7. Be ONE STEP AHEAD!

                                                       Remember: be one PAW head !

 

A GREAT Diva can outsmart them ALL


Remember to follow me........

Summer Days are PURFECT for sharing!

Hello My Darlings!

The birds are are chirping with much happiness, nattering away as I write from my quiet abode. The urban city, trudging along to the hum of traffic, human pedestrians going here and there...pondering as I am about "Summer time" less than a week away! Meoooooooooooooooooow!  Are you ready, I am!

My human, loves to hum along with this retro music..da, da, da, ta, ta, tada'.

Well, I'm making my 'wish list' to give to my servant (LOL):

• A trip to the beach
• A ride with Tuxedo cat
• Catch some Salmon!
• Sleep......

Did you know?

Salmon are fish that belong to the family of Salmonidae (biologists classify types of organisms according to similar characteristics: the term “families” encompasses the more commonly used terms “genus” and “species.” Within the Salmonidae family are the genus Salmo, which contains Atlantic salmon, and the genus Oncorhynchus, which contains Pacific salmon released into the Great Lakes, trout, and char. A common characteristic of salmonids is the presence of an adipose fin just in front of the tail on the dorsal (top) side. In general, these are all bony fish that are caught commercially from the wild, a dietary mainstay of aboriginal populations, sought after by recreational anglers, and farmed intensively because of their desirable taste and nutritional characteristics.

1. Get someone to catch this!!!  

2.
Eat this! Purfectly prepared just for YOU!

Meowww are you hungry yet.....................                   3.  Ah yes.......PURFECT.....

Train your HUMAN go shopping, or fish for YOU!

 Invite your friends over:

The best part of any gathering, in "Diva" land is:

 bring the kittens, Diva's, and humans!

Marlene - loves this idea!

Best of friends!
