Meezer rule - Didja miss me???

I am back in all my Meezer Glory! I did not mean to be gone so long; however, Mommy has been in a funk and was on sabbatical for over six months!

With that being said my Meezer rule is as follows:

If Mommy is not doing that great, it is important to be a nurse to her and to get all the cuddly-wuddly time possible.

By the way, it is PAWSOME to be back!!!!

My extra special, super-duper Meezer Monday birthday!!!

I am nine!! Can you did it? I am nine whole years old!! Nine is fine! It's smooth as Rhein wine!!! I like to chase twine! Okay, enough! Mommy presented me a special birthday song. She said it was written by a couple of beetles. Who know bugs were that good?

Scout, uh, this is Mommy... They are Beatles, not beetles. Their names are John and Paul...

Mommy, who cares as longs as they are fun to chase and crunchy!!

So without furher adieu, raise your niptini and feel free to sing along!

You say it's your birthday
It's my birthday too, yeah
They say it's your birthday
We're gonna have a good time
I'm glad it's your birthday
Happy birthday to you

Yes we're going to a party party

Meezer Rule

I only like water in my bowl complete with cubies. Other than that, no thank you!! You go right ahead and soak yourself or intentionally have water on you, but count me out!!

My Meezer rule for today is this:

If Mommy even mentions my name and the word b-a-t-h in the same breath, I have the right to hiss, howl and RUN!!!!

I didn't whap anything!!!!

I was all curled up with Mommy last night sound asleep. Then I was falsely accused by Mommy of going on an early morning whapping spree!!!

How dare she? Hmpf!! I was sound asleep with my precious, fuzzy chin nestled in her hand. I didn't do anything.... This time....

Wanna know the rest of the story?

Click here....

It is all about Mommy today!

Daddy is home and took the day off today. He is spending the day with me!!! Usually it is all about me but today I am going to be generous and let Mommy have her day….

Today is special for Mommy. Go visit her and find out why!

Meezer rule

You should trust your Mommy!

My Meezer rule today is this:

If your eye is squinty like Miles let Mommy play doctor on you for a bit and she will discover you have some of your own furs on your eye ball and will help you get them out.

This rule could stop a visit to the V-E-T!!! Bonus!

Middle name meme

The lovely Tara tagged me for a middle name meme. My name is Scout after the character in "To Kill a Mockingbird". The full name of the character is Jean Louise Finch so I am going to use Louise as my middle name.

Here is how it works:

1. You have to post the rules before you give your answers.

2. You must list one fact about yourself beginning with each letter of your middle name. (If you don't have a middle name, use your maiden name or your mother's maiden name).

3. At the end of your blog post, you need to tag one person (or blogger of another species) for each letter of your middle name. (Be sure to leave them a comment telling them they've been tagged.)

L: Lovable. I am a total love bug when it comes to my Mommy.
O: Outspoken. After all, I am a Meezer!
U: Underappreciated. I do not get 100% of the attention all the time.
I: Intelligent. Like I said before, I am a Meezer!
S: Sassy. I don't think I need to explain that one.
E: Exquisite. It's a Meezer thing.

So I am tagging the following kitties to play along:

Dr. Tweety
Kaze
Mr. Hendrix

Dog house part deux

Mommy is not too happy with me…. Again….

Here’s what happened….

Last night Mommy woke up around 12:30a because she realized she had not talked to Daddy (he’s on a business trip). Daddy is currently two hours behind so Mommy knew it would be okay to call. After chatting with him for a few minutes she hung up to go back to sleep. That’s when it happened….

I decided to play attack the blankie monster…. I don’t usually play this game in the dark because I generally prefer to stay curled up next to Mommy and blissfully snooze the night away; however, last night was different. I played for about 10 minutes which was more than enough to really shake all the cob webbies out of Mommy’s brain and really wake her up good! I should be proud but I am ashamed because after the game was over, I curled up for the night and Mommy was still awake at 2:30a this morning tossing and turning. And as you aware, she just went back to work Monday for the first time in 2 ½ weeks after having mono. She was not a happy camper when the alarm went off at 5:30a this morning.

Usually I run into the bathroom with her and chat while she showers but not today. Today I snuck out of the room and hid in shame.

Mommy occasionally calls me the evil Siamese because sometimes I am bad.

Beaching myself

I am getting in as much Mommy time as possible because the doctor finally is letting her go back to work after her long bout of mono. It sure is going to be different around here without her to lay on and nap with! It kinda makes me a little sad. I have gotten very used to sitting on her lap while she is on the computer and laying in her arms if she is watching TV. I have been the center of her attention the whole time she has been home and I LOVE IT!!!! That is as it should be.

I worry about her going back to work because she has explained to me that she will probably be extremely tired and will come home, have dinner and go to bed. What about me?!!?!!?!??!! Will I get the necessary skritches?! Will there be play time?!

Sigh, what's a meezer to do? That is why I am staying curled up on her. Maybe that way she will not go back at all and we can spend plenty of Mommy and Scouty time together. But then again, getting green papers is important to keep me in the style I am accustomed....

Smoking

For Valentine's Day, I sent my sweetie a package which included a catnip cigar. Being a curious Meezer I HAD TO inspect all things going into the box to Henry. I liked everything in it because it was paw-picked by me but I really was groovin on the nip cigar. Mommy even debated about letting me keep it because I was a smitten kitten.

But I knew Henry was worth it so into the box it went.

A couple of days ago Mommy went to buy my crunchies and picked up a cigar for my very own! She told me she had a treat for me for being such a good nurse to her since she is still so sick with mono. I was laying on my favoritist spot on the couch when she put it next to me. I hissed at it! I am not normally a hissy kitty unless there is another kitty in my territory; however, I hissed at the treat Mommy brought me! Then I whapped it good and hard and ran off to recover.

I still won't go near it. Mommy says I am crazy.

Hmpf!

What's new Pussycat?

The lovely Tamra Maew tagged me in order to get to know me better. I hope I do not disappoint her!

Here is how it works:

You have to tell every kitty 3 things that are new with you! Link it back to the kitty who gave it to you and pass it on to 3 more kitties you’d like to know more about!

In case you haven't heard, I have a a boyfriend!! Henry Helton asked me to be his special girl kitty and I said "YES"!!! ** blushing **

Aside from falling for Henry, I also have another love... No, it is not another kitty, it is my my FURminator. It rocks my little world and my furrs are all the prettier for it.

Lastly, my Mommy is sick. She is really down over it. If you get a chance go visit her and send healing purrs her way. I know she would appreciate it. I know part of the reason she is so tired is because she usually only sleeps 8 hours a day. Who can survive on less than 22 hours I ask you?

Anyway, I am tagging the following kitties:

Sam, Sabrina and Simon

Fraidy Cat Five on Friday

Mommy sez that I suffer from neurosis. I wasn’t sure what that meant so I looked it up… I like being able to see things by looking them up online.

Neurosis: a mental and emotional disorder that affects only part of the personality, is accompanied by a less distorted perception of reality than in a psychosis, does not result in disturbance of the use of language, and is accompanied by various physical, physiological, and mental disturbances (as visceral symptoms, anxieties, or phobias)

So my five on Friday are five things that I am scared of (but Mommy sez I am “neurotic” about)…

1. Plastic bags…. They are evil!!! When Mommy or Daddy come home with groceries I run like the wind!! When they change the trash bags and they have to open a new one, I am no where to be found. If I could I would rid the world of horrible plastic bags!
2. Aluminum foil…. I don’t like the noise it makes; however I mostly do not like it because it is shiny. It reminds me of the awful table at the V-E-T’s office. Nuff said….
3. Thunder boomers… I am really skairty over these! I have to either be curled up tight in Mommy’s lap, under the bed or in the back of the closet. I choose the place depending upon where I am when the thunder boomers start! If at all possible I prefer to be in Mommy’s lap! She cuddles me and tells me she will protected me.
4. The doorbell…. I can not begin to explain why this scares me! I can be downstairs laying by the cozy fire and someone will ring the bell and I have to bolt upstairs as fast as my leggies will carry me!
5. Closed doors…. Okay, this one is completely crazy, and I would not zactly call it “scared”; however, if a door is shut to a room (especially Mommy’s bedroom) and I am not in the room with Mommy I will not just scratch at it, I will body slam it!! Daddy watched me one time and said I got a running head start and hurled myself at it while meowing the whole time!! Mommy could not hear me because she was in the shower. Daddy had to carry me in so I could see her and I was so happy that I was in the room with Mommy!!

Meezer Monday 7

Here is another “tail” of one who came before me…

It is once again about Judina. Judina liked tomatoes…. A lot as a matter of fact…. Everytime Grandmama would cook something with tomato sauce in it she would put the empty can of tomato sauce on the ground for Judina. Judina would take her paw and swipe the inside of the can and then lick her paw clean. She would keep doing it until all the tomato sauce was gone and the can was sparkly clean. Then she would clean her paws like a crazy woman and make certain all the tomato sauce is gone from all her furs.

Grandmama told this story to Mommy (because Mommy was too young to remember ).

I think Judina would have gotten along with Boo Radley since they both liked to help in the kitchen.

On a separate note, Mommy and I are very relieved that Mao came home from his walk-about. We were furry worried!

Party like it is 1999!!

Wowser! I can not believe that today is my 8th Gotchaversary!!! That means I have been with Mommy for 8 years or 96 months or 416 weeks or 2935 days! I came to my furrever home December 18, 1999! Zowie that is bunches and I have loved every minute of it!! Okay, every minute except any car trips or V-E-T visits, or when we moved into the new house, but that is a different story for another time.

I think I will tells you the story about how Mommy and me came to be a family…. It started with a tragedy. On December 13, 1999, Mommy had to have Pookie put down because unbeknownst to her, he was in the final stages of renal failure. Mommy was distraught and very, very sad. She held Pookie as he took his final breath and lovingly buried him in the back yard of her parents’ home. She bought a St. Francis statue to be his grave marker that has a small bird feeder attached. That way he would always have the birdies he loved so much near him. Mommy told me she missed Pookie something fierce and that her heart was breaking. She did not think she wanted another kitty.

But on December 18th, something made her decide to go to the humane society. She went and visited all the kitties who needed a furrever home. She played with them, snuggled and gave them skritches. She decided then that she needed a new kitty to love. She did not care if it was a kitten or an older kitty. She said she just knew that she had a lot of kitty love to give and a warm, cozy home with toys, food, water, affection and attention. But to Mommy’s disappointment she could not decide on a kitty and none of them “picked” her either. She was about to leave when the office manager came to speak to her.

Mommy told the office manager the story of Pookie. She then led Mommy into her office. There on the bulletin board was a photo of Pookie!! Along with it was a copy of his last will and testament where he left his estate to the humane society for kitties less fortunate than he had been. Mommy cried over that. But the office manager had another surprise in store for her. She wanted to introduce her to a kitty that was found in the Hermitage/Mt. Juliet area on December 13th (the day Pookie died). Mommy was a little taken aback because she lived in that area at the time. So the office manager went and fetched a 6 month old Meezer that they were going to keep as the office pet. The office staff had named this Meezer Precious. Well Precious just climbed up on Mommy’s lap, lifted her nose to Mommy’s ear and would not quit purring! Mommy got picked by a kitty!! It was love at first sight for all involved! Mommy paid the adoption fee and off we went…

Yes, I was once a humane society stray named Precious. Now I am a bonafide, certified house cat named Scout. My name comes from Mommy’s favorite book “To Kill a Mockingbird”. I did not know that there was a guide book for kitties that taught you how to do that, I just thought it was instinct!

So that is my Gotchaversary story of how I came to be Mommy’s evil Siamese. I am happy in my furrever home and I loves my Mommy and Daddy very much! I am pampered, petted, groomed, fed, spoiled, but mostly I am loved a whole, whole lot!!

Mommy’s note: Scouty, I am so glad that we belong to each other! You have been a joy and are a great kiki. You always make me feel happy when you head butt, snuggle, purr, knead and love on me. You have excellent kitty communication skills and are always willing to chat with me. I enjoy that you are a lap kitty and like to beach yourself on me when I am sitting at the desk or in my chair. I get happy when we get ready for bed each night and go through our evening ritual of tucking one another in. I am proud to be your Mommy! I love you!

fifteen on friday

Today I should like to tell you fifteen things I like about this time of year. Before I do, I want to effury kitty Merry Christmas!! I know it is early, but I wanted to makes sure I got that message out to you all!

1. The boxes under the tree make purrfect places to relax.
2. The bows are fun to shred and chew!
3. Those shiny balls on the tree are fun to WHAP, WHAP, WHAP! Even when Mommy says “Stop it, Scout”.
4. There is a stocking over the fireplace with MY NAME on it! That means I will get temtayshuns or something else good just for me!
5. Mommy does extra cooking this time of year and there is always something tasty for me to nibble. She says I am her sous chef and taste-tester. That makes me happy!
6. Mommy has nice smelly candles burning and I likes that!
7. Mommy puts electric candles in the windows and I get to sit by them.
8. There is a funny little dressed up man sitting by the fireplace and I can talk to him all I want. Mommy says he is a nutcracker.
9. Mommy has not made me wear my Christmas scarf.... Yet...
10. I don't just have visions of sugar plums, I have sweet dreams of Henry Helton.
11. I love to meow along with all the music Mommy has playing.
12. There is fire going on in the fireplace and it makes for a toasty place to nap.
13. I know there will be milk and cookies out one night soon. I hope Santa does not mind if I "test" the milk for him...
14. I know at least one of the boxes under the tree is for me... I sit on it the most.
15. There is a package from Germany. I know it has lots of tasty treats in it. Whether or not I will get any remains to be seen.

What do you like about Christmas time? Let me know! I might learns something new to try out at home.

Warning!

I loves to eat! And I have been known to put my head in places it is not supposed to go. However, after reading this I am going to be much more careful!

five on friday

Here are five things I plan on doing today…

1. Find the sunny spot and sleep in it (while dreaming of Henry Helton).
2. Find the pink mouser I whapped under the fridge.
3. Sneak around looking for temtayshuns.
4. Beach myself on Mommy when she gets home.
5. Stare out the window looking for LIZARDS!!

What fun plans do you have for Friday?

I only hunt bugs...

When Mommy showed me this it made me glad I only hunt bugs! Okay, I admit I also hunt my nip mousers, feet that move under covers, string, shadows, and my favorite... LIZARDS!!!!!

Oh no's!!

After reading this I am glad I only drink water or milk!!

Hanging with Mommy

Here is a photo of me. I am hanging out on one of my favorite spots which is Mommy’s chair. If I position myself just right I take up most of the arm of the chair and part of Mommy’s lap. Mommy says I beach myself on her. I don’t even know what that means; however, I am in an optimum place for skritches and that is always an important thing! If I stay still Mommy will usually brush me too and that is very good. I love the way that wiry brush feels on my furs! When I have had enough, I just put a bitey on the brush and Mommy knows I am done. She is well trained that way.

Doesn’t Mommy’s eye look much better? She still says she is going as Fergie from the Black-Eyed Peas for Halloween. Since I don't know who that is, I really don't care unless Fergie has temptayshuns!!!
