Frootbats Friday

Pierro:
Happy Frootbat Friday kitties!
Miles and I are in our offices, finishing up this weeks' bonkbonk work.

Miles:
and it was a busy one! MOL!
Have a bronkie weekend!

Don't let yesterday
use up too much of today.

Monday Mancats ~ training mom

Pierro:
Good morning kitties
first off,
I must say a little tribute
to my mancat mentor, Mickey.
He was the paradigm for mancats across the earth.
When I was just a little canmat-in-braining,
he was the one I looked up to, the example I tried to follow to mancatdom.


BIG Bonks to you dear friend ~~ Rest in Peace.

Today I want to share with you the training program
we have been working on with mom.
Every day she is learning the proper techniques to
assist us in our grooming and comfort.

Miles:
Mom is learning to help me with my tail

She holds it gently so I can clean it

this way, I know she is viewing
how carefully we take good care of our furs

I am glad she learns quickly
now with a quick sniff...

I can get back to my nap

Pierro:
I have been teaching mom to quietly enter my blooblankie cave
with the softie scrubbie firmly in her hand

Then she can begin rubbing my chin

then a little over my eyes

and finishing up, gently on my head.

Miles:
That is it, kitties.
Take note, this training requires daily guidance
and consistent practice.
Good luck and bronks for a happy day!

Treat everyone with politeness,
even those who are rude to you
- not because they are nice,
but because you are.

Friday Frootbats

Pierro:
Thank you to all of you, dear kittypals, for the great compliments on our boxfort.

We are very proud to have such an industrious mom servant that actually makes a feeble effort to ensure our happiness with small gestures of creativity

Miles: This was a busy week.... Blizzie came home from spring break... sick! she even smelled bad!

she brought a tummy virus home. She sits in bed and drinks gatorade
and eats pasta and dry bagels. Mom gives her zantac 75 to make her tummy stop being angry.

Pierro: It is going to be a great week-end full of sunshine and bonks

Mancat Monday

Miles:
Hi kitties!

Mom has been doing some maintenance to our boxfort
She made some additions and repaired some parts, that we have trampled; she made them a little more sturdy
so, today I am going to show you some details of our mancat boxfort.


It comes in two sections...

mom made it that way so she can carry it around the house.

She never does that though, but if she had to....


the front and back go together perfectly, and mom made a bloo mark with a pencil to show where to line up the front and back boxes so the rooms in our basement are easy to move around in.

the back half is lighter...
mostly because there is no wood or heavy stuff attached

no that is not a poopie in the middle
it is that longlost mouse!

Mom says if you want to get your servant to make you a boxfort, they should get clean boxes from a moving supplies place.
Our mom is always making stuff.

Everything is glued together with a very hot glue gun.

When she is doing that, daddy has to snoopervise us, -- or mom does it when we are konked out (after completing many hours monitoring the status around our huge domain here, which is exhausting!!)

mom also found a piece of board in our peeple dungeon/basement that used to belong to one of the girl beans' high school locker shelves.

It sturdied up our front second floor tunnel, which was getting a bit saggy from our heavy mancat trampling. Here you can see we also have plenty of closet space!

Right now, Pierro is in his office, well, one of his offices... :-p

Pierro:
Greetings Kitties!

Welcome to our box fort. Miles and I work and play in this a lot.
We especially like to play in it when it is dark in the room and mom and dad are trying to watch some BBC movie from Netflix.

On the side of my office here, I have a port hole

This round thing mom got from her new blender packaging....
she killed her olde blender.

I can stick my head in it -- um, if I want

Miles: this is my special office.

Oh yes, Pierro and I share offices many times.
Mom just put this new penthouse cover on.
this used to be open, but I like the coziness of this tunnel cover.

I hope you enjoyed the boxfort tour.
Happy Monday. We hope you have bronkie sunshine

Pierro:

I would like say that Miles and I are bonking and purring
for Mickey and his family today. Mickey is feeling sick.
He is the best mancat and we love him so much

Here he is relaxing.
He is the epitome of gallantry and a role model for all mancats!

Great tranquility of heart
is his
who cares for neither praise
nor blame.
~Thomas à Kempis

Frootbat Friday

Miles:
Happy Frootbatty Friday bronkbronkie kitties!

Today is a busy day for me.

I will keep myself well hydrated
for extra bouncing with my daddy
(in the background making koffee)

Pierro:
It is sunny here

and I am going to relax all day

Miles:
Have a funfun week-end too!

I am always doing that
which I cannot do,
in order that I may learn
how to do it.
~Pablo Picasso

Monday Mancats!

Pierro: Happy Mancat Monday kitties
Miles and I are doing our usual duties here today

checking the closets...
Miles don't trip on the napkins in there.


folding the laundry is a big job!


helping mom iron stuff and at the same time, checking
the back yard for introoders.


Miles: and then we have plenty of time to play in our box fort!

yipppppeeeeee

We hope all of you have a bonkie bronk day!

One word frees us of all the weight
and pain in life.
That word is Love.

We hope you have a bonkful and happy snappy Friday and a super pooperdooper Week-end.

We have read that many of the bloggie beans are having, or had surgery and some have been sick. We have been purring, bonkbonking and bronking for all of them.
Now is the time for us to tell you... mom is getting decrepit. She has a stiff left shoulder and went for the xray and her very first physical therapy this week with a nice peppy guy that squishes her shoulder and then he pulls on it, then he makes mom do some exercises that she says are very hard.
She has only had one physical therapy session and she says she is really sore!
We hope that she will get less creaky and not so crumbly floppy and frail.
Meantime:
Bonks and bronks to all of our pals!!

here is a timely and funny quote:

An alimentary canal with a big appetite at one end
and no sense of responsibility at the other."

Monday Mancats

Pierro:
bonkbonk Monday kitties!
yep, look at me, :::sigh:::
wearing my sweatcollar on Saturday.
I look like a weirdo, don't I...

Miles:
Pierro and I had a great week-end being mancats

Pierro: mom made me wear my sweatcollar because I had
a bit of eczema on my mancat chest
I was a sort of ashamed about it, so I hid in my office for a while.


Miles: Well, I wanted to look sweaty like Pierro
so mom let me wear a sweatcollar too even though
I do not have any itchies.


Pierro:
Then when my itchy went away, Miles and I wrestled in the sun

Miles: We hope your Monday is bronkie fun!
I love being a mancat!

There is nothing
deep down inside us
except
what we have put there
ourselves.
