20.Jun.2009 My Kitties

It’s been a while since I posted pictures of my kitties, so here you go. The picture above is Screecher.. she’s snoozing it up on a bookshelf. She’s a pretty awesome cat, but she doesn’t let us pet her very much unless she’s in the bathroom. Strange kitty!

Screecher really likes her pet water fountain. She used to enjoy drinking from the bathroom faucet, so we decided to get her a fountain. As you can tell, she’s quite the fan of it… I think she’s imagining herself in the Serengeti here.

Yet another pic of screech relaxing… she looks pretty happy here.

Sleeping Screech strikes again… Instead of buying her a pet bed, we let her sleep in a laundry hamper with an old bathrobe in it for padding.

Finally, a picture of Sandy… she’s napping, too. You’d think we had a eucalyptus plantation in the backyard from all the sleeping pics I got! They’re not always like this, I swear!

Yet another snoozing cat.. it’s the best time to photograph them, you know

So… I guess you could say that these two cats have a good thing going here… all the food you can eat… a dog-proof home , and occasionally, they catch a lizard… okay, I’m not too crazy about the lizard part…

We stopped buying cat toys for them once we say that they have as much fun chasing milk bottle tops and q-tips as they do with real cat toys. Our last cat used to hunt birds, and I wasn’t too crazy about that… he was even tormenting someones pet cockatoo that had somehow escaped from it’s bird cage. Our cat’s a re a bit more mellow now, but I had to save a baby bird from little Sandy just a week ago…

After seeing the movies bolt and bedtime stories, I thought it would be cool to get a guinea pig. I think it’s a guinea pig… I’m talking about the big pet rodent… I hear that they get along with cats pretty well. I’d like a bunny, too… but my wife is allergic to them.
