Cat Window

Newton: Watch out, Ashton. I’m coming in. There’s a squirrel out there on the feeder!

Ashton: I don’t see a squirrel. And even if I did, I was here first. You need to wait your turn.

Newton: But you aren’t even looking! 

Ashton: So? This isn’t the cat looking window. It’s just the cat window. I’m a cat. So it’s my spot right now.

Newton: Seriously?

Newton: Last I looked, I’m a cat, too. A handsome one. So I should be able to sit in the cat window, too. Move over, Ash.

Ashton: Sorry, this window has an occupancy limit of one, especially when there’s fuzzy brother involved. Maybe you need to put in a reservation next time.

Newton: Do squirrels take reservations, too?

Chicken Celebration

Ashton: What’s this?

Ashton: We were supposed to celebrate National Fried Chicken Day on Friday. You didn’t think I was going to miss a chicken holiday, did you?

Newton: Is there any in there for me?

Ashton: Sorry, Newt, it’s empty.  * chew chew *  Nothing to see here.

Ashton: Chicken is a personal thing. If I shared with Newton, the next thing you would have known, everyone would have been in here wanting some.

Flag Outtakes

Some of you asked about the image of me in front of a flag that displayed on our Independence Day blog post. Today’s outtakes are from the day we took that photo.

We don’t have a big enough flag at our house, so Cupcake went to visit a cat-friendly home decor store that happens to be next door to her favorite pet store. We found a large flag-themed wall hanging with raised stars and stripes.

Cupcake wasn’t interested in sitting in front of the flag. Where are you going, Cup?

It took some time and some bribery, but she eventually sat in front of the flag.

Then she didn’t want to face the camera. There were much more interesting to see down the aisle in the floral section.

Finally, Cupcake decided to look in the direction of the camera… sort of.

Cupcake: It’s a lot of work being a model cat! Don’t I deserve another treat for this? 

Happy Independence Day!

Cupcake: What’s this on my bed? Mr. Newton! Do you know anything about this?

Cupcake: There you are. Do you know how this stuff got on my bed? 

Newton: I put it there.

Cupcake: Why did you put stuff on my bed?

Newton: It’s decorated for Independence Day. You remember that from last year. When the humans cook hot dogs and there are loud booms?

Cupcake: I like hot dogs. 

Newton: Let me straighten the decorations, and then we’ll go find the hot dogs.

Happy Independence Day to all of our friends and readers who are celebrating today!
