And she put's my hair bands in the toilet too!

Dear junior cat

Yes, with our dog's death the pet heirarchy needs adjustment. But remember, even though you're all grown up now, you are still the smallest and youngest member of the household. As we've seen, senior cat is not interesting in giving up his position just yet. And don't forget that senior cat is six pounds heavier than you. Hang in there, you won't be junior forever, you just need to wait 5-10 years....

Love, the referee

Dear Figaroe,

Could you please stop howling at the top of your lungs at 1 a.m. 2 a.m.,3 a.m. etc. At 1 a.m. I got up and put you in your room with your bowl of food, closed the door and went back to bed. At 1:15 a.m. I hear you howling and banging on the door. I crawled out of bed, opened the door, put your food away and it starts over at 2 a.m. Now, we know you are not hyperthyroid as you were treated for this 7 years ago. Thyroid check last week was fine! Are you afraid of the dark? Do you have kitty Alzheimer's? Could we please have a night of solid sleep?

Your beloved humans!

Dear Chloe Kitten,
I am not your enemy, really. But you do need to take your meds. Dr. C and I are trying to help your lungs clear and get you to feeling better.

Dear Gods of KittyKats - please don't let Chloe have chronic lung problems. I already went through this with Erin Cat. She's up there with you, she can tell you all about it.

Sign me,
Worried Mom

(((Beth and Chloe))). I hope she starts cooperating and gets better soon.

Dear Cat,

I don't know who took you into the lift when you were sniffing around our lift lobby and took you to basement 3 where you were found 12 hours later with the holy c**p beaten out of you by another cat. But if I find that person, and there HAS to be a person involved considering how the lift is the only way to get there and you are pathologically afraid of the lift, I will beat the stuffing out of him/her. I hope your little kitty mind is loopy with sedatives and painkillers at the vet while they stitch your lip up and let your missing claw heal. And that you get to eat something in the IV. And also, that you start peeing soon. When you come home, I'll cook you some shrimp.

Love,
Your Tante

Makbike, my mother actually swears that our cat is afraid of the dark and leaves nightlights all over the house for him. You could try that with your kitty.

Dear cats

I'm so sorry that our new dog has decided that chasing you guys is great fun. We're working on discouraging it. Meanwhile, I'll think you'll find the baby-gate will let you have the upstairs all to yourselves. Give it some time, and I'm sure you guys and Stella will be friends.

Love, your protector

PS you all were so brave to come downstairs for your breakfast today!

Dear Miles,

We are all very impressed with the fact that you seem to have been taking lessons in Parkour. You're very acrobatic; you amuse and impress everyone who comes by to visit and I never get tired of seeing you bounce off the walls, doors, cabinetry and furniture. I just have one request: Would you please, please, please try to keep your activities confined to the hours when we're awake? It's very hard to sleep thinking that someone is breaking into the house at 2 am.

Thanks!

Your humble servants.

Kitty Parkour - I love it!

[ursalilah]

I've never seen anything like it. He's wild! It used to be that he did Parkour right after he ate, but now he does it at all times of day and night. He seems to also like to show off when we have guests and he'll do 5-6 moves in a row. I really need to get it on video.

Dear Little Cat,

I don't know what you did while you were outside, but you stink! I wish you'd chosen to clean yourself somewhere other than my bed.

Also, if I'm on the toilet, I'm going to be needing the sink in short order; my sitting down in the smallest room in the house should not be your cue to jump into the sink to curl up for a nap.

Holding my nose,

The woman who feeds you

Dear cat,
Could you not throw up in the silverware drawer?
Dear husband, could you not leave the drawer's open?

[indysteel]

Dear Henry, I love that when you "escape" to an area of the house where you're not really supposed to be, you don't use it as an opportunity to be a stinker like your sister. Rather, you find the softest thing in the room on which to cuddle and sit there like a good boy until we find you. You're the sweetest boy ever. I love you.

Dear Rory-

You know we are always telling you to get off the table or squirting you with water when you don't listen.

What ever possessed you to crawl under the tablecloth? (The pictures are out of order, and he was on the far side of the table from the camera before he came out from underneath.
