Easy on Sunday
We aren't going to do much today. Have a mooch in the hay barn to see if there are any mousies about.
Then if the sun shines we'll just lie around in the grass. It's good to have a lazy Sunday.

Where's my Shirt?
These are some more old photos that mum scanned for us.Flynn: Eric, I don't think there is a T shirt in there. Dad would have worn it by now.
Eric: You know what Flynn, I think you are right. I can't find anything in here. Not even the Mother's Milk.

Scruffy Rat
+025.jpg)
When we were kittens, one of our very first toys was a black rat. I told Flynn it was mine, and it was and still is my most favourite toy in the whole world. I call him Scruffy Rat, but I don't think mum knows his name because she calls him Fred Bear. Silly mum, surely she can see he's not a bear.
+026.jpg)
I like to chew him and bunnykick him. It's lots of fun.

He doesn't look much like a rat any more. Most of his black furrs have gone, and one ear and both eyes, and all his stuffing is coming out, but I still love him. Mum bought some new black mousies that looked like Scruffy when he was new, but they aren't my Scruffy Rat and no way am I going to play with them.

Waiting
+008.jpg)
Flynn: Me and Eric are supposed to be walking around the fields together, but I can't see him.+009.jpg)
Come on Eric, where are you.+010.jpg)
I keep looking but there's no sign of him yet.+011.jpg)
Have you seen him mum? Why must he always keep me waiting?+012.jpg)
Oh well, I might as well lie down and wait. I could be here all day.+013.jpg)
Eric: Come on Lazy Bones Flynn. What are you doing lying down there. We're supposed to be going for a walk.+017.jpg)
Come on, let's have a look on the hedge.+016.jpg)
I can see sheep in our neighbour's field. I'd like to go in there and say hello, but we are not allowed to.+019.jpg)
See that wire in front of me? Well, it is electric to stop the horsies trying to escape from the field. Mum has to turn it off when we go out because if we touched it, we might turn into curly cats.+018.jpg)
Flynn: Shhh, I think I can hear something.+020.jpg)
Eric: Hang on, I'm coming. You may need back up.+021.jpg)
Eric: Oops, I think I made too much noise. There were fev-vers in there and they flew away when they heard me.+015.jpg)
Flynn: Oh well, that put paid to that. We might as well sit in the grass and wait for something else to come along.
Eric: Okay, good idea. You know what Flynn, those horsies don't half leave a lot of poop lying around.

Cuteness
+004.jpg)
Mum pulls the bedding back to air the bed every day and we like to sleep on it so she can't make the bed. Usually we sleep one either side like this.+022.jpg)
But sometimes we snuggle like this.+023.jpg)
Mum thinks we look extra cute sleeping like this.+024.jpg)
We just think we'll ignore the flashy box.Tuesday, August 26, 2008
The Fly
I had been very busy working on the computer with mum and needed a nap. Suddenly I was woken up by a buzzing noise.There was a pesky fly sitting on the computer annoying me. I was too tired really, but I had a go at catching it. When mum turned the flashy box off, the fly landed on her, so I pounced on her shoulder but I didn't catch it.

Mancat and Not the Mama Monday
There's nothing better to drink than fresh rainwater. We've had so much rain this year that even our lilies (beside us) only grew to about 18 inches high and all their leaves and petals fell off. Don't worry, mum picks up the bad leaves and petals so we don't eat them.
Mo, you're the greatest furr all you do furr the kitties. Thanks furrom us on their behalf.

Easy on Sunday
Sometimes we like to lie on the earth in the greenhouse instead of in our plant pots. Mum wuz going to pull up the grass that is growing in there, but we told her to leave it cuz it makes a tasty snack. She sez the grass seeds must haf come furrom the hay in our pots. We hafn't had much sun this year, so the tomatoes haf only just started ripening. Mum sez she had nearly given up hope on them ever getting ripe.Labels: easy on Sunday, greenhouse

Do Not Disturb
Sometimes when mum can't find me, she'll look in the bedroom and see a lump in the bed. I like to get under the blankies, or if the bedding is pulled back to air, I'll get under the bottom sheet. That can be difficult because it is fitted and has a valance. I keep burrowing until I get under it. Mum says I am like a mole. When dad asks where I am, she says,'Flynn's moled.'
Now if you don't mind mum, put the blankie back down and take the flashy box away, and let me get back to sleep.Friday, August 22, 2008
How to keep your feet clean.
+001.jpg)
We went for a walk around the fields today cuz it had stopped raining for a while. When we got back, Eric went indoors and jumped right up on the computer. I think his toesies are even dirtier today than yesterday. He's very lazy cuz he waits furr mum to clean them with a cloth furr him.He should do what I do. When I drink furrom the horsies trough, I let my foot dangle in the water. If there is any mud on it, then it will just float off which saves me furrom getting mud on my tongue. Then when you haf finished, it's funny to flick water all over your mum.

Flynn: I'm doing the talking today because Eric is a bit embarrassed about his toesies.For Tuesday toesies, we asked whose toes they were.Well of course they were nice and clean and white, so they had to be mine.
This is what Eric's toesies look like when he comes in furrom the garden. He's not like me, he's very lazy about cleaning them.
For our Wordless Wednesday post we had a photo of us in a snuggly nap pile with our Kitty Yumbum. Several of you didn't realise there were three kitties there. Kitty YB is at the back, Eric is at the front, and all you can see of me is a bit of my head on the left. We were four months old. Kitty Yumbum was only 6lbs, but quite a bit bigger than us back then.
This is us when we were two. We had grown a lot bigger than Kitty Yumbum by then. Not long after this, she left us to go to the Rainbow Bridge. We all still miss her very much. You can read her story here.

Tuesday Toesday.
I may go out in the garden and in the greenhouse, but I do keep my toesies nice and clean and sparkling white. I love tickle toesies so feel free to have a tickle if you want to, but do you know whose toesies these are? You have a 50/50 chance of being right after all.Labels: my toesies, tuesday toesies.

Mancat Monday - When we were young.
These are old photos that mum took with her non digital camera. We have always liked climbing ladders. This one didn't seem to go anywhere though. 
When we got up there we just had to come back down again.
We like step ladders too. They are good for lying on when your dad wants to stand on them to cut the hedge.
And good for practising your acrobatics too.
And why bother with the steps when there is a straight side you can climb up?
When we had finished climbing, we would always have a rassle.
Or sometimes we would climb into the hedge and go up through the middle to sit on the top. This is a very good place for snoopervising as we are about nine feet up.
We are nearly two years old in these photos except the last one in which we were about 10 - 12 months old.
