YOU DON'T HAVE TO PUT A MR LINKY ON YOUR POST. But it would be nice.
If you wish to put Mr. Linky on your post
Please put the Cat logo ON THE TOP of your entry !
I will put "Mr. Linky" on my post Tuesdays early morning
Lisa, who doesn't water plants but computers.
Usually she is like this before she falls asleep
Only interruption is to fill her stomac at least 20 times a day.
Here she washes her face near my NEW computer ! and then walking over to my lap, started the printer, really she is overdoing with her help !
Now the tail and then nap.
I have got such a lot of comments on my catastrophe, that I want to thank you all and also defend poor old Lisa who finally did only what (in her mind) she had to do !
I explain. Lisa is 16 years old and suffers as many female humans also from hormonal disturbances. It happens twice a year in spring and automn during her love life period, if she weren't spayed. So good old Lisa suffers PMS and as she is more than middle aged, she doesn't suffer from headache, hotflashes or bad moods no, she needs to water everything which comes in her mind. Just like that.
A few examples a part from for the first time my computer : Microwave, Mr. Gattino's shoes (inside) his pullover, washing machine, diswasher, computer screen but also the hedge in the garden. Fortunately the whole watering doesn't stink.
Of course when it started about 10 years ago, I took her to the vet. And she (the vet) explained to me that if it has nothing to do with sudden changements in her life (the cat) then it would be probably hormonal.
As Lisa didn't have any changements in her cat life, we tried it with the prescribed pill. And see, it worked. No spraying anymore. That's why usually (yes usually) I take her to the vet each year to make a little check up and of course for the pill. But this time I put the call from one day to the other until it happened. But now of course I won't forget it any more. This was a very luxury pee unfortunately not in gold.
Now you can imagine what poor Lisa has to suffer. If you with your PMS had to spray against a microwave what a gymnastic ! or pee in you husband's shoes it's not easy at all I guess. No we only have the above mentioned troubles.
Usually Lisa is a friendly and very affectionated cat and she purr/currs the whole day even without reason. She sits somewhere and purrs her strange purring which sounds like a mixture of a pigeon, a razor and a cat. To not repeat myself for those who know Lisa already I wrote about here http://gattinamycats.blogspot.com/2006/07/is-your-cat-as-bullheaded-as-mine.html
Now why didn't I go to the vet ? Because I were busy with blogging. And why do I blog, because I like it and also to get comments ! (very important) Therefore I came to the conclusion, it was not my fault but yours !! (It's always good to find a culprit)
and thank you to participate to our get together where we just meet each other and write about our cats. That's a good subject, at least for me, because there is always something to tell ! Of course blogging cats are also very welcome they can empty their heart here and complain about their humans.
Here are my four cats for those who don't know them yet.
Lisa 16 year old, bullheaded and a nerve saw
She makes it to her target to always sleep in a place where she disturbes everybody. And she only gets up when she is hungry, that means each time when somebody puts a footnail in the kitchen.
Pookie, 8 years, is a very clever and intelligent cat. She rules the whole household and is very tender and could be petted the whole day without interruption.
Fortunately she is spayed otherwise she would have filled a whole orphanage with cat babies. She considers me as her personal belonging and is tied to my leg by an unvisible string.
Kim 7 years, is a very timid and shy cat. And unfortunately she confirms what humans have too, beauty doesn't always go along with intelligence. Kim loves all cats but is very distrustful against humans. It took us more than 3 years to get her close to us to be brushed and petted. She depends very much on Pookie, who had taken care of her when she was a baby.
He puts himself in the strangest situations and causes always a lot of laughter. He loves all humans and even dogs, but ignores cats and hates male cats.
Therefore sometimes he comes home with a scratch on his nose and last week even with a small hole in his tail.
When Arthur sleeps he sleeps and no earthquake, Tsunami or the well hated vacuum cleaner can wake him up. You can move him around or put a hat on his head, he sleeps.
Everybody in the neighbourhood knows Arthur as he likes very much to sleep in other beds and doesn't feel embarrassed at all to settle down in a freshly made neighbour bed just to check if the laundry is really clean !
I still have the blog where I wrote about Arthur and if you wish you can read his adventures
That is more than what I ever had dreamed of. I thought about 15 max and not more ! So are you ready to begin ?
The only thing I want to ask you, please do not write in the comments "nice picture, nice story" especially when there is no picture or no story. (It happened once to me !) Of course it is impossible to read 42 posts. So pick out the once you are really interested in and leave the others. Everybody will find its cup of tea ! This shouldn't be a marathon for collecting comments.
There is nothing special to do except put a Mr. Linky on your post which allows you to open blogs very easyly. For that you go to :
http://www.blenza.com/linkies/
subscribe, log in and get it. Even I made it and I only started blogging this year in May. Before I had no idea about a computer. It's FREE of course and the idea I took from Photo Hunters, animated by http://tnchick.com/. (who is also with us ! ) It's also used by Thursday Thirteen and Wordless Wednesday groups. So the idea is not from me, but I like to copy and "steal" useful and nice stuff. (I am a blogging cleptomaniac !)
As a logo take this
he just has such a bored, posh look.
Just copy and paste it in your sidebar and on every tuesday on your blog entry, so that all owned by cats people can easily recognize that you are a member victim too.
I counted the pro sundays and pro tuesdays and had to decide on tuesday because that day is a quiet day with no themes (I have been told). For those who are afraid not to have time during the week, they can prepare their entry on sunday, post date it and just click on "publish" on monday evening for example.
Everything of your cat, except a dirty litterbox is welcome. You do what you want, a picture is enough too. Just let us have fun that's the most important thing ! And only when you are half dead you have an excuse for not posting in CATS ON TUEDAY !
As soon as you have written your "complaints" or "funny things" about your naughty cat(s), come here to my blog and use Mr. Linky, so that the others can easily find you. I think that is enough for the beginning.
If anybody has some other ideas just tell them ! Any good advice is welcome !
READ YOU ON TUESDAY !
I had a dream .... no, just an idea !
They would be happy !
Wouldn't it be a nice idea to take the time once a week and only write or post a picture about your cats ?
I thought as there are so many group games are going on why not for cats ?
So every tuesday or sunday it depends on what you prefer we could write a page about the adventures of our cats. And if you don't have time, you just post one or more pictures with a little text.
We could name it CATS ON TUESDAY or SUNDAY
I will put a "Mr. Linky" here at the bottom and those who would like to participate have just to click on "enter". This would facilitate me to join you immediately (if you are not sleeping and I am up, or the other way around because of the time difference).
When the selected day arrives and every participant has written a little story or put one or more cat pictures with a little comment on their blog we could go from one to the other and make our comments. This way we would know more about each other and our cats !
This could be the logo to be put on the top of the post, so that it is easy to recognize who is participating.
What do you think about that ?
When we have enough members of CATS ON TUESDAY/SUNDAY we could even make a blogroll. But first I have to know if there are some people who would like to join this idea.
If you like to join do it here :
and please put in the comment what day you would prefer. The majority wins of course !
