Roman Nose Lake

Momma and Daddy took a drive into the mountains in the metal monster a few days ago.. On their way up, they saw this sign. Yes, that is snow!!!

I am not sure, but I think this is more fearsome than vishus deers.

They went to this pretty mountain lake. We can see it from the Big Piney Woods (look in our sidebar on the right with me and Mitten's silhouettes, just under our double picture ~About The Calicos~, and you will see the white peak with snow on it; that is what you see in the picture above, but the snow is mostly gone now.) She also said, with the rain we are getting today, it is probably really snowing up there now. It took them 2 hours to drive to it. Momma said they went back and forth, up higher and higher. She didn't see any vishus bears.

Investing In Tough Times

As many if you know, I am a Feline Finance Counselor. I have a lot of great opportunities such as the following:

1. Invest in my nip farm. ( I haven't started it yet, but maybe next spring.)
2. Invest in my bottled water business. I use nothing but recycled, old, mostly non smelly, milk cartons, using Big Piney Woods cool clear water. I am still collecting milk cartons before I get the business started.
3. Invest in a high yield CD (Cat Deposit.) These are fresh deposits from the three litter boxes we have, scooped twice daily. FDIC insured (Fecal Dropping Insurance for Cats. )

My office hours are 9 to 5, Monday through Friday, unless I am napping.

Happy Halloween!!

Leave Me Alone!!!

See what I mean? It is rude to smell of my furrs and she won't leave me alone! I was helping Momma make up the big sleeping place and she had to poke her nose into the fun.

Solitary Confinement

Momma putted me in solitary confinement yesterday. (The spare bedroom.) She said I was picking on Patches and wouldn't let her sleep in her favorite place on the big sleeping place. Then last night she put me back in there!! Now I have to smell all over and see where she was and if she used the scratching post and the litterbox. I just want to play, but Momma says it isn't fair that I won't let her upstairs and always chase her down. I need a playmate to run and jump and box with. I wonder if Momma would get me a kitten of my own.

Stress

Momma noticed that my tummy furs are disappearing. I have a naked tummy now, like the furs have been worn off. It is stress from the Little Squirt. I need an anti-anxiety pill. No, better yet, I think I will try and open the door that goes to the out. Maybe she will leave.

Ode To The Fairies

The fairies come a calling
On a full moon night
I can really see them
With the moon so bright

They do fairy dances
In a circle on the ground
Spreading golden fairy dust
And dancing round and round

I sit in the center
As they slowly waltz on by
They sprinkle me with fairy dust
And fly into the sky

Note from CalicoMom Toni: We had an inch of snow on the ski hill yesterday morning!

I Learned Something New!

My good furriend, Daisy the Curly Cat, taught me a furry important thing. It doesn't count as a fib, if you cross your paws. (I cross my paws a lot.)

I also think her Momma might be a fairy. She looks like one in the picher on Daisy's blog. I know they wear fowlers in their hair. Patches told me she looks like one of them she saw in the woods at the purrday party we had.

Flower Friday

Taken in late August

This was taken last year. It shows the porch, the way it was before my husband built the new one out of logs from the Big Piney Woods. He made it bigger, also, and now I have a wonderful place to hang my plants.

Fall is now upon us, the only thing left is the hanging baskets under the eaves, saved from the frosts.

Please come!!!!

What: Purrday/gotcha day party for Patches, Mittens, Mistrie

Where: Big Piney Woods, by the fairy stump

When: 1:00 PST (Precious is going to be waiting by the woodshed at noon PST if you want to follow her to the fairy stump, in case you haven't been here before.)

The fairies are hosting the party. They are going to sing and dance and then sprinkle all of us with fairy dust and teach everycat how to fly! Mistrie and her bestest furriend Gree and Precious and her bestest bud Pepi already have tried it. Mittens is too scairt, so the scairty cats can hang with her (she said she will take anycat that wants to go, on a walk.) We will also play pin the tail on the mousie. (Mistrie has a real live dead mouse we can use.) Tuna cake, ice cream and milk will be served, followed by visitng. Hope you can come!!

We Are Back!!!

Hey, Squirt, Momma says we can blog again! She says probably Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. Her hairball musta come up, she is feeling better. Do you know what that means? I can tell the world how naughty you are!!!

~Patches Lady~

AWARDS!!!

We have received three awards. One from The Meezers, one from Karen Jo and one from MaoMao. Oh, thank you so much!!! Now, we have to get Momma into gear to post them! She is having more stomach issues, so we are purring on her and hoping she gets better soon. We think she has a hairball!!! She says she thinks she will have to take a few more days off.

~Patches, Mittens, Mistrie, Precious~

I Win!!!

I am the boss lady of the upstairs now, and chase Patches down all the time, especially at night. Momma feels sorry for her, cuz she always slept on the bed. I stay awake most of the night, protecting my terrain and killing the blanket monsters. Momma and Daddy say they are always waking up with cat furrs in their mouth. Do you think they might get a hairball?

~Precious Flower~

Ummmmm

has anybody seen my new furless furriend, Sue? She is about my Momma's size and height. She talks real soft and carresses my toes and is so nice to me. She lives in the Mitten State and has a tuxie cat called Edsel and a fluffy cat called Casey. I think she has a man called Steven, too. Oh, and she wears these metal things that hook behind her ears. She says it is to help her see my purrty face. Have you seen her?

Hi, Mistrie Here

Hi efurrycat. I am just finishing shedding out my winter furrs and it is time to start growing my coat all ofurr again. Momma made me the nicest bed efurr in the woodshed. She used a board up on the top of the wood (3 rows back in, from the end) and then put a blanket and an old coat of my Daddy's that has fleece lining. Then Daddy stacked the wood around the front, so I am well hidden and protected. It is the best bed yet. Momma made steps with wood so I can get into it easy, and I can get into it from the other end, where the blue blanket is. She got some Revolution for me today, to keep the vermins away. She said there is a feeling of fall, but I like it cuz it is 70 and sunny. I also got some great Temptations from my best bud Gree. (In a purple package.) They are mine all mine, and Momma got me some more today. Gree sent me a heated bowl for outside! Now I don't have to worry the water will freeze. I have to go now, and play with the fairies.
