Find the Kitty Friday 9/9

We’ve been chipping away, little by little, at the spring cleaning chores I never finished. Livvy always like to lend a paw.

Happy weekend!

Sticky Note Fun With Livvy

Mrs. Mecomber — Sat, 23 Apr 2011 13:36:00 +0000

Most of the time I tolerate Livvy’s antics pretty well. She has this very bad habit of climbing up on my desk and planting her big Siamese butt in front of my monitor. She then presses her wet nose on the screen– or even licks it!– so the monitor is speckled with slimy cat snot. *gag* Before I moved my keyboard into a keyboard desk tray, she’d lounge on the keyboard, too. If I was frittering away my time on the computer, that’d be one thing. But I work from home! I have scads of articles to write, and all she wants is ATTENTION! Who does she think she is, Cleopatra??

Well, I had a little fun with Livvy yesterday. Yeah, I was a bit stir-crazy. Looks like it was contagious.

She can be such a pain sometimes, but isn’t she adorable?!

Doing the Homework

Doesn’t it look like she is doing her homework? Haha, if only!

She’s gotten into this bad habit of sitting on the dining room table. :-p Even during dinner time! :-p *sigh*

Don’t ask me why all my photos taken with the iPhone are suddenly turning out with a pink hue. There are no camera adjustment settings (that I am aware of). Maybe it’s because spring is coming and the sun’s rays are refracting (or reflecting or refraring or whatever the word is) on the earth’s atmosphere??? Or maybe it’s just because the walls are red and the iPhone goes screwy…

So, you ready for spring yet? I know, funny question, ha ha ha!

Find the Kitty Friday: 2/11

Here she is, not very stealthy these days:

If anything, she is absolutely demanding my full, unabated attention. This is what she does ALL DAY LONG at my desk.

*sigh* I am unable to work, and I have a lot of work to do! She’s never really aggravated me very much before, but I am finding myself getting exasperated when she does this. I had to make the decision to work upstairs on one of the old refurbished laptop computers before I caved in and got myself one of my own….. I recline on my bed to write! Shes very happy there, snuggled on top of my legs with a cozy blanket.

It’s so cute that she wants to be snuggled all the time… but some days I just have a lot of work! How about your cats, are they snuggle bunnies or do they act like real cats, hahah!

Those Siamese Blue Eyes

Mrs. Mecomber — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 14:57:31 +0000

The most striking feature of Siamese cats, I think, is their eyes. Such beautiful eyes.

Livvy’s are light-blue. She is a Tabby Point Siamese (half Siamese, half Tabby cat). And she seems to have inherited the best of both breeds: she’s elegant, spunky, personable, and vivacious. And gorgeous.

She was sitting on my desk the other day (right in front of my computer screen, as USUAL), when her bright eyes caught mine. Her eyes were soaking in all the daylight streaming in from the window. She actually allowed me to take her photo!

Her eyes have some white in them. It’s kind of creepy, in a way. lol.

Despite her bright eyes, she’s been out of sorts lately. She’s eating a LOT, probably twice as much as she usually does. She’s a little lethargic, kind of moody, too. I’m not sure what’s up with her. Since the outdoor cat has worms, I am always on the lookout for those, but Livvy doesn’t seem to be afflicted (that I can tell). Maybe she’s just plain ol’ hungry? Do cats go on eating spurts? She hasn’t gained any weight, she might even have lost a little lately. I’d take her to the vet, but what would I tell him? That she’s been moody? Eating a lot? I mean, how do you diagnose something like that? She’s not exactly SICK, certainly not going to go on social security disability anytime soon, haha! But she’s just…. different, right now.

Well, anyway, if any of you seasoned cat owners have some advice, feel free to leave it. Maybe she’s just going through a stage. Cats are sometimes so mysterious. *sigh*
