Dear Cat

Dear Cat,

well lucky you. Your servants finally installed the woodstove you ordered ages ago. Merry Christmas :-)

Dear lulu,

First the good news about your poop sample. After being isolated in dog kennel for over 28 hours, you finally pooped and you were immediately released from your isolation.

Second good news is that your poop sample is free of any bugs. So no deworming for you.

The bad news? Well we don't understand why you are so hungry all of sudden. (we do have an idea but that will be TMI)

and MEEEE---OOWWW meowy Christmas

love mom,

Dear Kitties - holy crap, I have cats! How'd that happen?

Dear Hidey Cat - hamburger buns? Really? What kind of cat eats hamburger buns? I'll look for the puke from the plastic bag today, I'm sure it's coming. In the meantime, keep being adorable, and I'll overlook everything. Damnitt.

Funny how that happens, isn't it? Enjoy your (apparently new) fur family!

Dear neighborhood cat,
I don't mind you hanging out on my front porch when it's raining or snowing. However, the cats who live in this house mind, the dog who lives here really minds, and I don't like the way they all carry on when you are curled up relaxing on the bench. So do you mind going elsewhere? The next two houses to the west both have nice porches, and all the residents are humans.

Two of the five cats I've had liked to eat bread. A fourth likes to lick the plastic bags it often comes in and the fifth likes celery. There's no accounting for their fixations.

Mine likes canned tuna, but also canned pumpkin and oil-and-vinegar salad dressing. At least the tuna makes sense! Cat are weird.

Dear cat:
Please stop waking me at 4am to either lick every bit of exposed skin you can find or pounce on my toes/head/whatever. It's really irritating. Do it again and I'm banning you from the bedroom.

One of mine will get anything from the counter in a plastic bag.

Dear Cats:
Helping with the dental floss is a good job for you. Helping with contact lenses--not so much.

Dear Moses,

You are such a great alpha cat! Sure, you're fond of the perks (bossing everyone around at meal times, first dibs on laps, not having to bury what you've left in the litter box). But you are also good at looking out for your underlings and keeping order. When the dog was getting too frisky with the youngest cat, you stomped in and said in your kitty language "keep it cool folks. Break it up now. I don't want any trouble here." And everyone listened... It's too bad youngest cat isn't more grateful!

Dear Ransom,

When you were given to me as a newborn I wanted a cuddly cat. But now at 9 years old you are too cuddly. Everytime I sit down you have to be on my lap. If you are not on my lap you are laying up against me so I can't hardly move. When I go to bed you have to get in get right into my face before you lay down. And when I brush you away, you whine and and whine. When I am sitting at my computer room desk, you put your front paws on my thigh, whine, and won't leave until I pick you up and hold you. It is very had to work with a cat on your lap.

If I shut doors to keep you out you scratch and whine until I open it. It is very distracting.

Despite all this I still love you. I guess you must be making up for the other cat who barely lets us near him!
