A Tranquilizer in Water

Marcus:  Can someone tell me why Jan is upset with me?

Buddy:  I can.  When Mr. Doug brought Jan back from Walmart Thursday, she opened the door and you were so excited you didn't just run out the door like you did Tuesday.

Sam:  No, you're a an excited pee-er.  You got so excited, you peed right inside the door and ran out the door still peeing.  Mr. Doug caught you by the collar, Jan dragged you inside, you took off out the door again to see Mr. Doug,

Merci:  Jan dragged you back inside and dropped her shopping bags, Mr. Doug reached inside the door and dropped a 30 pound bag of cat litter into your pee puddle. 

Rusty:  When Jan grabbed and lifted the litter bag with one hand, her denim purse fell off her arm and right smack into the puddle of pee.  The neighbors probably heard the scream .

Marcus:  Oh, so that's what all the excitement was about.  She washed the purse, so why is she still upset with me?

Cameron:  Because you're four months old and haven't had - make that hadn't had an accident in weeks - if we don't count the excited dribbles when Luke's hu-mom Teresa stopped by.  Jan is trying to let you have the run of the house with the rest of us instead of crating you when she leaves for a short while.  And how do you pay her back?

Marcus:  I don't know.  Should I buy her flowers?

Cyndi:  Cameron isn't asking what you should do in the future.  He's asking what did you do Thursday to pay her back for her confidence in you.

Marcus:  I don't think I understand this confidence thing.  But I do understand I'm an excited pee-er.  I heard the vet bragging about that to everyone on my last visit.

Percy:  I don't think he was bragging about you, Marcus.  I think he was warning everyone to stay out of shooting range. 

Micah:  Well, this is sure not fun.  We had an entire blog post written last night, all ready to go just as soon as we picked up the interview url this morning and this is all that's left of it.  Okay, who ate it?

Marcus:  Don't look at me.  I eat just about anything and everything, but I've never eaten a blog post in my life.

Rusty:  Well, I guess we'll have to write it again.  It sure would be nice if we could have breakfast first, but there isn't time.  It's not easy working on an empty stomach.  Let's see, how did it go?  Oh, yes...

Cyndi:  *dancing and singing around the kitchen table*
            We're back, we're back, weeeee-ee ar-re baa-ack!

Buddy:  Who's back?  And where were you?

Micah:  We Funny Farmer Felines are back after four weeks without publishing a Mousebreath interview.

Cameron:  Yes, for two weeks, we had no interview to post and then for two weeks, we had life interruptions  - setting up a new computer one week and getting locked out of Mousebreath the next.

Percy:  Our interview subjects today were very good about responding in a timely fashion and have patiently waited for us to return.  Their mom has been sick this week, so you might want to stop by their blog and wish her a speedy recover.

Cyndi:  We are pleased to welcome all of the Kwee Cats - Duchess, Piewhackit, Pungy, Odysseus, Domino, Sneaky Pie and Oliver.

Sam:  Please put your paws together in welcome.

Rusty:  What are you doing, Sam?  This part of the post is for us kitties.  You don't qualify.  You're a canine.

Merci::  You mean we can't even help with the introduction?

Micah:  No!  If we let you help this time, you'll want to help every week and then you'll want to get paid.

Cameron:  We get paid?  Why hasn't anyone mentioned this to me?

Percy:  No, we don't get paid.  But Mousebreath is a cat ezine, so if we allow the woofies to help us, the Mousebreath editor might fire us.

Cameron:  Fire us?  But if we don't get paid because we're locked out and fired, how are we going to eat and keep a roof over our heads?

Percy:  Relax.  We were only locked out for a few days and it was a mistake, not anything personal. And we haven't been fired or we wouldn't be publishing today's interview. 

Cyndi:  Cameron, would you like for me to bring you a bowl of water?  You're looking a little white around your black tuxedo.

Micah:  I suggest a tranquilizer in the water and a long nap.

Percy:  To get back on subject, we are pleased to welcome the Kwee Cats today.  We hope you will stop by Mousebreath to read their story, Quite Cute Kwee Cats.

Rusty:  Yes, do read the interview first and then stop by the Kwee Cats blog to say hello.

Now we are off to join this week's Pet Parade, hosted by Rascal & Rocco.  We can't wait to see who the Featured Favorite is today.

It's co-hosted by Bionic Basil, Love is being owned by a husky, Barking from the Bayou, and Jan's Funny Farm (that's us).
