My Brown Fishie

The last time my Japanese girlfriend visited, she brought me my new favorite toy: my brown fishie. She made it by hand, and stuffed it with a special treat that cats love...cat nip!

Oh my, I have had a great deal of fun with this new plaything. In this pic I'm a little tired from playing with it, hence, I am resting on the pillow!

Weather: Actually, temps are quite favorable.
The mercury hasn't risen too high.

Kitty Cave

Costco is great. That's where my food and kitty litter come from. Also, they pack stuff in these great big boxes.

I've turned this box into a cave! I can nestle inside and observe from this new hiding place. Have you ever been in a cave?

Weather: Ouch, over 90 degrees every day. That's too hot for me.

Welcome to your new home Jun-chan!

Yes, I'm feeling better, but my buddy Jun-chan might not be...this kitty just survived a 13-hour plane flight to...Japan! She must be starving.

It's a long story, but one time when my humans went on vacation, I got to live with Jun-chan for a week. She was very kind to me.

I hope she enjoys her new home in Japan. Maybe someday I will live there, too. Then I can eat the freshest tuna sashimi ever!

Weather: Still not too hot. Feels more like March than July.

I'm not 元気

I'm sick.
No, really.
It hurts to type right now.
"I'm not 元気" means: "I'm not healthy!"

On Monday I went to the kitty doctor (veterinarian, but my humans just say "vet"). I got my vaccinations for the year, and they have made me sick.

I am having a reaction to this medicine, and I need to get better because I haven't eaten or had any water for two days.
I'm hungry and thirsty.

This morning I have to go back to the vet and get some help.
Please send me your positive thoughts as I try to become more 元気 (or げんき), which you can pronounce: "genki."
I learned this word from my Japanese girlfriends.

Weather: I don't care. I'm sick.

Let's Play...

Do you know the game "Hide-and-go-seek"?

I love to play it with my humans. When they get home from work, I run around the house and see if they can find me!

My favorite places to hide are on top the fridge (shown here), and in my male human's closet between his clothes.

I don't think you play anymore; this game is usually for children. Are there any games you loved when you were a child?

Weather: Well, not toooo hot, YET.
