Not Your Apartment

Percy:  This is my latest apartment.  I've been living in it since the weather turned cold and wet.

Micah:  It's a laundry basket, Percy, not your apartment!

Percy:  It's a very cozy apartment with a widow view.  And sometimes there is sunshine.

Micah:  I can enjoy the same sunshine from my latest apartment.

Percy:  That's not your apartment.  That's Jan's bed.

Micah:  Yes, I have it to myself all day.  Jan puts the gates on to keep Marcus off the bed in the daytime.  If she forgets, he sneaks in here and makes himself at home. 

Marcus:  Jan, that's MY top sheet.  It isn't fair.  If I'm not allowed on MY top sheet during the day, Micah should be evicted until bedtime too.  Please let me chase him off MY sheet!

Taylor:  Cyndi, why do the guys have such a hard time with living arrangements?

Cyndi:  It must be a guy thing.  You and I seem to the the only ones around here that actually sleep in the beds Jan gave us. 

Taylor:  Have you ever considered spreading your wings and sleeping somewhere different?

Cyndi:  If I did, I would  be squashed.

Taylor:  How would that happen?

Cyndi:  Marcus would mistake my wings for his new pillow.

The Pilot is Warm

Taylor:  Why is Jan photographing your butt, Micah? 

Micah:  Because it's warm here and I don't want to move.

Taylor:  You have a warm bed in the living room.

Micah:  It's warmer here close to the pilot light.

Taylor: Is there any room up there for me? 

Micah:  Sure,on the other side,  if you move the kettle and the skillet to the floor.

Taylor:  This skillet is iron!   Can you give me a paw here?  

Micah:  Sure.

Taylor:  **waits impatiently**  I thought you were going to help me move this skillet. 

Micah:  Oh, you mean now?  I thought you meant when the weather warms up in April.


You might remember Micah and his Warm Butt, Warm Brain skillet sitting to stay warm.

The Bed Saga

Cyndi:  This past winter we did a whole series of articles on beds.  Dog beds, cat beds, purloined beds,shredded beds -

Buddy:  Miss Pam crocheted Percy his own cat cave bed because his favorite sleeping place was taken over by Micah.  (A Cat Cave for Percy)   

Cyndi:  So then Miss Pam crocheted a new bed for Percy because Micah took over his cat cave.  (Percy's Cat Cave Part 2)

Buddy  Miss Pam knitted Percy a new bed.  And guess who claimed it before Percy even had a chance to see it?  (Percy's New New Bed)  Good guess.  Yes, it was Micah.

Cyndi:  Miss Pam then crocheted three more new beds - a total of five, one for each kitty.  She hoped Percy would get at least one of them.

Buddy:  But it got hot early this year and none of the cats wanted a warm place to sleep, so Jan put the beds aside for next winter; however, when she went to photograph them so the cats could thank Miss Pam, Jan couldn't remember where she'd put them.  She tore the house apart - twice!

Cyndi:  She did finally find them.  By accident.  She kept forgetting to take photos.  Now that it's late July and we're sweltering, we finally have a photo of our lovely, warm, new, unused beds.  Never fear, though, they will be used when cooler weather arrives!

Buddy:  Yes, they will be used.  The question is, even with one bed per cat, will Percy finally get to sleep in his own new bed or will some unnamed cat claim two for himself?  The saga continues.

Cyndi:  We want to thank Miss Pam for thinking of our comfort and for the work she put into gifting us with such beautiful winter beds.

Buddy:  And the cats would also like to thank Jan for finally finding the beds she put safely aside so they wouldn't get lost.

Percy's Cat Cave Part 2

Taylor:  Uh-oh, I see trouble on the horizon.  Percy hasn't had his new cat cave 48 hours (A Cat Cave for Percy) and now this. 

 Micah:  What's "this"?

Taylor:  You.

Micah:  I'm not a "this".  I'm a contented cat.  I found this wonderful new bed behind a door.  It's so soft and warm and no one was using it.

Taylor:  It isn't a bed.  It's a rock cave and Miss Pam knitted it special for Percy because you appropriated his hat and scarf bed. 

Micah:  I did not appropriate it, and I did offer him a time share, but he refused.

Taylor:  You know he won't use anything you've touched.

Micah:  Does that mean he won't want his cat cave back?  That's okay.  I won't mind a bit. 

Percy:  I don't believe it.  I left the room for two minutes ... two minutes for a litter box break and Micah stole my new bed.  Jan hid it behind the door so Micah wouldn't find it.

Micah:  I heard you won't be wanting it back, Percy.  Thanks for the new digs.

Percy:  Sunday I had a wonderful new bed.  Monday Rusty borrowed it for half the day.  It's only Tuesday and I've already been evicted.  (I know this is posting Thursday, but this happened Tuesday.  *sniff, sniff*)

Taylor:  I'll share with you, Percy.  You can nap in my box bed if you want.

Percy:  Thanks, but I miss my cat cave.

Taylor:  You mean your cat cave with the rock slide roof.

Percy:  Huh?

Taylor:  You flattened out the cave by sleeping on it.  The rock slide roof.  Don't you get it?

Percy:  No, and I don't want it.  Not with Micah's smell on it.  I'll just sit here a while in your box and try to remember how nice it was to curl up on my soft, warm, knitted bed.

Micah:  Thank you, Miss Pam, for knitting this cat cave for Percy to give to me. 


We always have much to be thankful for, so we are joining the Thankful Thursday blog hop at Brian's Home. 

A Cat Cave for Percy

Percy:  This new bed looks so empty, so I think I'll just take a nap on it.

Taylor:  I guess Percy doesn't understand the concept of a cat cave.  He's supposed to sleep in it, not on it.

Percy:  But I'm so comfy on it.  That nice Miss Pam knitted it just for me because Micah stole my knitted hat and scarf bed.

Rusty:  Hmmm, I don't know where this came from but it seems like a good place to take a bath.

Taylor:  Uh, Percy just went to the kitchen for a bite to eat.  He'll be back soon.

Rusty:  Okay, but as long as he's gone, I'll just take a quick snooze.

Percy:  Can you believe this?   I was only gone a few minutes and my new bed has been appropriated.

Taylor:  Don't worry.  Rusty will be leaving soon. 

Percy:  Ahh, finally I have my new bed back.

Rusty:  Are you done with it yet, Percy?

Percy:  No.

Rusty:  Well, I'll just sit here and wait until you are.
