Coast: still not clear

Maxwell: Hey, Allie!  Is the coast clear? Have the visitors left yet?


Allie: No, but feel free to mingle, Maxie. They don't bite, you know.
Maxwell: Uh, actually...you sure about that? That one human looks a bit toothy....


I think I'll just hang out here for a bit longer, if it's all the same....

Allie's Alert System

Allie: Oh boys! Time to head for the hills. Company's coming to call!



Faraday: For realz?
Maxwell: Dood. For realz. And they're staying in your room.

Do you get ousted from your favorite roost when visitors come to stay?

Wednesday Blues

Maxwell: *sigh* Rain in August. This is the wettest summer ever.



Well, there's nothing for it. Guess I'd better just take a nap while I wait for the sunpuddles to come back out again.



How's your Wednesday sun?

Buddies and Pals

Faraday: hey, Mommy! Remember the turtle that visited the airplane out at the hangar an' stuffs?
The Mom: You mean this one? The one we named Speed Bump?



Faraday: Yeah, tha's him.
The Mom: What about him?
Faraday: He came to visit! Can I keep him?


Maxwell: Dood. That's not a real turtle.
Faraday: You're just jealous I found him first. Now stay away from my new friend.

More evidence...

That Allie has SOMEONE wrapped completely around her little paw....



Text from the Dad to the Mom regarding a lighting upgrade to a room:


Allie: I fail to see the problem here, Mother....

Reason #1 why we wash before we cook

Seriously Maxie. I just cleaned that bowl.



Try as we might, we cannot keep cat butt off the counter. So instead, we fight it with some hard core sanitizing.


And a dishwasher that has a SANITIZE function.


For reals.

If the shoebox fits....



The Mom: Allie. um...I think that might be a teensy bit small for you.


*cue girlcat grumbling*
Allie: It's FINE, Mother. It just...needs a little...
*grunt*


Allie: Aaaaaargh!  *girlcat growls ensue*
THIS BOX SHRUNK!


The Mom: Uh-huh.


Allie: I heard that tone, Mother. You used a tone with me.
It fits just fine. See?

The Mom: Whatever you say, dear.

Faraday: It's Monday, Maxie. I'm all out of gruntles.

The Cat Days of Summer

We have the hots here; how about you?


Remember: cats don't sweat like humans, so if you do take them out for an afternoon walk, make sure they don't get overheated.

And protect those paws!  Even wooden decks can get uncomfortably hot and sear delicate paw pads!


Welcome, August!
