Hanging Out with Ashton

It’s Caturday, and we’re hanging out under the tree.

Ashton: I like it under here because it’s dark, and because the head peep can’t reach me.

Ashton under the Christmas Tree

Why don’t I want her to reach me? Well… earlier this week, there was an incident with my new collar. The head peep got home, and I was pretty freaked out. It was obvious I had part of my collar stuck in my mouth at some point, and it was soaked with kitty spit.

The peeps say there’s a design flaw, and that this collar is missing a loop that would keep it from getting like this.

I say that it was missing a key feature: Me not wearing it. It’s a much nicer collar now that I’m not in it. That’s right. I’m nude, I and I plan to stay that way. (Don’t worry, Mr. Jinx, I’m being modest about it.)

Peeps are stubborn, though. The head peep went out and bought me another collar. She says it’s made out of soy. Isn’t soy something you eat? I already tried eating my collar, and that didn’t turn out so well.

I told Newton that he could have the collar, but he said that he doesn’t wear girly colors. He’s no help at all! So I’m staying under the tree where the peeps can’t reach me. (Well, except for mealtimes.) They aren’t putting that collar on me!

Flashback Friday: Sneaky Snuggle

Back in January of 2009, when Newton was a little kit, all he wanted to do was snuggle with the big kitties. The big kitties weren’t into that with that they viewed as a little, orange brat.

That didn’t stop him…

He just waited until they were asleep, then he sneaky snuggled them.

Mancat Microchip Monday

Are you microchipped? I am. Wait, I’m not talking to you with the two legs and the cup of coffee. I’m talking to your cat. I have no idea whether they microchip people, but if they do, it’s a subject for another discussion.

Newton Hanging in the Sunroom

Registered microchips save lives. My grandpeep’s dog has a microchip, and a few years ago, we got a call that he had ended up in a local shelter. Without that microchip, that dog would never have gotten home. While you might secretly wish that happened to the neighbor’s dog every time he scares you, you don’t want it happening to you.

Some people say they can’t afford microchips for their pets. Our local SPCA is sponsoring a Microchip Monday today. Maybe yours is doing something similar, too.

MicrochipMonday

 So if you aren’t wearing a microchip, take it from a handsome mancat. They’re in fashion. They’re useful. And you don’t want to be the only cat on the block without one.
