When you accidentally annoy your coworker....

The mom: "Maxie! I can't finish my edits! Your tail's in the way!"

Maxwell: Are you saying I have a big butt?

The Ottoman Debate

Maxwell:Dood. You're in my spot.

Faraday: Finder's keepers, loser's weepers, Maxie.

Maxwell: Yeah, but it's my turn on the ottoman, so get down.

Faraday: *blows raspberry* Why don't you come down here and make me?

 

*5 seconds later*

 

 

Maxwell: Well, if you insist....

The Music Mancat

Faraday: Maxie, seriouslies. You think you're a maestro or somthin'?

Maxwell: Dood, I firmly believe a mancat should continue to improve upon himself.

The thing's right here. What could go wrong?

Faraday: My ears, Maxie. You could make my ears bleed.

Maxwell: *scoffing noise* Dood. I've heard you meow. Pull the other one.

(cue plinking sounds)

Faraday: Just wait'll Daddy hears you murdering Bach.

(almost) Wordless Wednesday

Day 29 of our Protest. Taking up new hobbies #becauseBORED.

• • •

The Mom is busy chasing a hot book deadline coming up in September...
An' she's kinda mad wif the new Blogger interface...
So she's protesting it by dropping unedited phone pics onna blog for the next few weeks. 

Purrsonally, we think that violates Article XVII, Section 65, paragraph B in the Feline Articles of Cat-stitution.
What do you think?

The Feline Version of "Get Off My Lawn"

Now that's a glare.... 
I'm sure that squirrel got the telepathic message.

A Maxwell PSA

Maxwell: This week ushers in a whole new month.
As we say goodbye to January and hello to February....

Pawty responsibly, 'k?

***

Don't do it, dood

Maxwell: *calculating look*

the Mom: Maxie....
 Maxwell: *slow-w-wly stretches paw out*
the Mom: This won't end well, kiddo....

Maxwell: *lifts paw once more*
Yeah, but it's worth it.
It's soooo worth it.

Somemommy forgot....

Faraday: *grumble*

Don't look now, Maxie, but we're so not getting sunpuddles today.

Maxwell: Wait, whut?
Faraday: Come sees for yourselfs.

Maxwell: Yup. You're right, dood. They're down.
 *sighhhh*
When does Momma get home from work again?

Faraday: *heavy sigh* 

I dunno Maxie. 

Do I looks like I does maths and stuffs? 

I didn't think so.

Maxwell: Doooood. It's gonna be a looooong day.

Oops... Sorry, kiddoes!

Happy Weekend!

Miscommunications

*gasp!* What are you doing on the counter?! You're not supposed to be there!

Maxwell: You heard her, Allie. You're not supposed to be up here. Get down.

Allie: *long-suffering sigh* . He did not just say that....

Maxwell: ... I presume by "he" you mean someone other than me....
Allie: *sigh-h-h-h*

Monday's crazypants

Faraday: Seriouslies, Maxie. A little decorum, first thing in the morning, pleez. 'Speciallies on a Monday an' stuffs.
Maxwell: Dood, when opportunity squeaks, you gotta grab it.

Faraday: Pfft. Everyone knows opportunity knocks, Maxie.
Maxwell: DOOOD. Mousie on a string, over here.

Faraday: *huff* Okay, FINES! Whatevers. Just do it quietly.

Maxwell: *chomp*slobber-slobber*chomp*

Poor Faraday....

Priorities, we gots them.

Faraday: I'm telling you, Maxie, that Amazon truck does NOT have our noms on it.
Maxwell: Dood, you can't know that for sure.

Faraday: Seriouslies, Maxie. I saw Mommy's last order. It had hair stuffs an' tool parts an' ... an' vitamins an' stuffs listed onna page. Not a single bonito flake anywheres.

Maxwell: So that ginormous box I see him carrying up to our front porch....

Faraday: Worthless.

Hey, Amazon delivery dood...consider yourself lucky Max is on this side of the glass....

Cat Conversations #512

Faraday: Hey, Maxie, why're we sitting here, staring out at a backyard we can't play in, again?
Maxwell: It's called "getting fresh air".

Faraday: An' why's this such a good idea again? Cuz all I wanna do is tear into that squirl who's sitting there laffing at us right now.

Maxwell: Well, Momma said—
Faraday: Pfft. Mommy also said going to the vets and getting our toofs cleaned was a good idea, and you know how that turned out.

Hey, it's not my fault you guys have so many cavities....

Maxie, the civic-minded kitty

The paw's all primed to shake paws at the polls tomorrow!
For those in the U.S. — don't forget to vote — it's both a privilege and a responsibility of citizenship!

November already?

Maxwell: What's this I hear?

It's November already? Where has the year gone?

I'd best be about it, if I want to hit my annual nap quota. I think my game's been off this year due to the dearth of sun puddles....

We're closing in on nearly double the annual rainfall in our area. 
Has the year been wet where you live, too?

This is Maxie's Brain...

Maxwell: What have we here? A little light reading?

Maxwell: Let's just see what pops is reading today....

Uhm-hmmm... *mutter*mutter*  Yes. Oh really....

*scoffing noise* Any cat could solve this problem. The connection between length and time?
Simple. The longer it takes for dinner to be served, the more slowly time passes.

It's all relative, really. Get it? Relativity?
Ahhh...I crack myself up....

Just hanging around

... on a lazy Friday morning.

How you doin'?

Maxie Noped Right Outta There

Maxwell: Huh. Well, will you look at that. 

Maxwell: I do believe that's Papa's missing cable.

Maxwell: yup, USB A to uhhh...

Maxwell: Yup, looks like that's a micro-USB on the other end. He's been looking for this, you know.

Allie: Paws off, Maxie. And unless you want Mother to learn the person who hurled on her slipcushion was you and not Faraday, you'll just—

Maxwell: All yours, Allie. All yours.
