Happy National Tooth Fairy Day 2019


Paprika here! Peaches & I have a super gig - we are part time Tooth Fairies!  And today's the day we get to celebrate.  I get to do most of the flying (natch, remember my "dramatic acrobatic award" this week?) Peaches, who calls herself "queen" is relegated to hand me the teeth.  Lucky kiddies who get a visit from us!!! Happy National Tooth Fairy Day to all! (you can read more about this day, started by dentists, by clicking the link.)







                                                                                                                                                           As you can see by the 2nd picture, Peaches often tries to horn in to MY job, even though we have written job descriptions!

Love Your Pet Day!


Hello, Peaches here! My human's face looks particularly pink here since she is laughing at all my antics with the camera.  I have learned to take a pretty good selfie in my old age.  I thought I would get her all to myself today but NOooo, I must share her with my sis-fur Paprika!

Instead of being entertaining like I am, Paprika just lies there and takes a nap.  I deserve more love, don't you think for all my social skills?

National Wine Drinking Day



Mrrrow, Paprika here! I say: Pinot Meow! Cabernet  Claw! Riesling Purr!  Yes, there are wines for cats and besides the Pinot Meow we imbibed last year, our human created two more beet juice treats for us LACED with catnip.  What's a girl to do?  We HAD to try them all or we would have offended the human.  A strange feeling came over me afterwards. 

To explain all this, we must tell you it IS National Drink Wine Day!  It's a fun holiday seeks to illuminate the benefits of this fine beverage which elevates the mood and enhances relationships.  It's not enhancing mine with my sister, Peaches, though, as she's literally floating away!

An Oil Painting for Paprika


Paprika here and Here I am in oils!  Wow, I'm liking it!  It's not every day I get painted AND framed!  Today, I am lazing around with a bit of "nip" and my crafty human used the Painnt  "Crazy World" with transparence around 60% HD Filter and a frame from image framer.  We're joining Athena & Marie's Hop today and look forward to visiting other artsy kitties!   Yours truly, Paprika

We also decided to do the Friendly Fill-ins from 15andmeowing and Four-Legged Furballs!

Peaches' answers:

1. If it wasn't for Paprika, I would get the whole bed and our human to myself. I object to just confining myself to the right side of the bed.

2. Meow loudly similar to a war cry before pouncing on the bed to keep my human company.

3. Giving diva intense stares is my preferred method of communication. This lets the human know I am present and interested,.

4.  You can't buy enough catnip to keep me happy.

Paprika's answers

1. If it weren't for Peaches, I wouldn't have to share my human and stay only on the right side of the bed. It's a drag having to limit your territory.

2,  Maintain absolute silence before pouncing on the back of the human's chair.  That way she thinks you have been air-lifted and has no opportunity to object.

3. Rubbing my cheek sweetly against others  is my preferred method of communication.

4. You can't buy enough boxes with windows or tunnels  to keep me happy. I just can't get enough of them!

Computer Clean-Up Day


Today, the second Monday of each year, is a day that every cat fears "COMPUTER CLEANUP DAY."  On this day, humans try to get rid of accumulated junk on their computers.  But WE are on her computers. Do we have something to worry about?
 
 Our first thought of delaying possible deletion disaster was to DISABLE THE COMPUTER MACHINE!
 We then decided to divide up the "protection" tasks!
 While Peaches guarded the laptop, I, Paprika, took control of the computer. And I DO mean control!
 We also jointly decided we could catch our "human fly" with a little "honey," always a successful tactic to maintain control.  I could not go wrong with a little kiss - Peaches
Or one could simply look beyond "cute." - Paprika
 In the end we decided "one cannot be TOO careful" and we guarded BOTH computer and laptop with unswerving fierceness.

But then we thought it best just to ask the human:  Are WE on the deletion list?


Whew!~~~!!!  Having had what we thought was a narrow escape from virtual extinction, we were quite relieved and decided after al the excitement, we would, you guessed it, take a nap.   That was close. See you later!

Valentine Homeownership for two cats



Hello,Peaches here! Did you know we are HOME-OWNERS?  We got this CAT-umptuous Valentine house from a dear friend a few years back and are having an exciting time remembering our, um, explorations.  Home-ownership is NOT SIMPLE when there are TWO cats!

Here are some pictures as to how I, Peaches, took ownership of this house and little about the competition I had to endure...
I first entered this house
And gracefully took passion

Here I am!
Not bad! Sniff...

But then there was an INVASION..by my sister Paprika!

Cione Outa there Paprika, or I'll....

Blow the House DOWN!

There! THAT's Done!


Paprika, that house has no ROOF.  Come outa there IMMEDIATELY!

I'm gonna stay in here, like, Fur-Ever! - Paprika the Cat

National Kite Flying Day Backfires!

Kite flying experience #1

HELP!   Today we were introduced to some "flying things" that we thought were birds.  But they were NOT birds.  

Of course my greedy sister GRABBED one and you can see what happened!  




Our human says we will take kite flying lessons soon to celebrate National Kite Flying Day properly.  

KITE FLYING EXPERIENCE #2

At LAST! You see what a few lessons will do. This is a GREAT sport for cats,  And it facilitates bird watching! Secretly, we are hoping to catch a few birds up here!





Holy Cat!

Superbowl Katz


I found a great bowl to celebrate "Super Bowl Sunday" but my human for some reason was not happy!

 It's time for my nap, though.  Beauty rest comes FIRST!

Uh Oh. That Scoundrel, my sis-fur Paprika is trying to UPSTAGE ME!

Never one to be daunted by little competition, I donned what I thought was the proper helmet!

Paprika here! Peaches may be a coward and with her pink bicycle helmet but I know what to wear when I'm deep into athletics! Check out my peach FOOTBALL helmet and supreme gamesmanship!
