Evicted?!

Last weekend my humans took a trip, and I went to stay at Grandma & Grandpa's house. I usually have a lovely time with them, but when my humans picked me up...they saw that I was limping. Maybe I climbed the stairs @ G-ma/G-pa's too vigorously and hurt my front leg. I dunno.

What I DO know is that I am no longer allowed to use my kitty condo. It is a shame; I had it for less than three months! It has been moved into another room and rests behind the locked door. Oh well, I know my humans don't want me hurting myself by jumping in and out of the penthouse floor.

I saw the vet earlier this week, and he said it looks like a sprain. I got some meds which my humans kindly sneak into tuna every morning! Also, since my female human is on vacation, she has been keeping a watchful eye on me to make sure that I don't climb too high or jump too far. There goes my dream of the 2012 Olympics. London will have to wait.

Weather: It's kinda weird lately. A bit cool.
I guess fall is on its way.

It's over?!

Yesterday, my female human finished the first quarter at her new job. When she came home she looked both happy and sad...she always tells me that she will miss her students!

However, I think she should *mostly* be happy because for the next few weeks:

• We can take lots of naps together
• We can hang out all day on the couch reading books together
• We can eat tuna together!

So, I'll do my best to comfort her as she finally has some downtime to catch her breath and, best of all, spend time with me!

Weather: It was pretty hot last week, but now that September's here, it's anybody's guess what the temps will be.

It was my birthday!

Last Wednesday I turned 10 years old. That's like 57 in people years.

I still feel pretty good considering I'm headed toward the twilight of my life.

I hope the next 10 years are full of happiness and fun with both my humans...just like the last five years since I entered their lives.

Oh? You wanna know what I got for my birthday? I'll give you one guess. It's NOT the $ you can see in this picture.
That's right! TUNA.

Weather: Heating up a little bit lately, but still bearable.

My Secret Life

My humans are usually gone all day on the weekdays. For me, this means I go exploring around the house. When summer heats up, one of my favorite places to hang out is in the cool porcelain bathtub.

However, I don't like baths. One shot of water from any sink faucet or shower nozzle will send me running.

How about you? How do you cool off in the summer. It's funny, actually summer hasn't been that hot here yet. I'm sure August will bring higher temps.

Weather: Mild days and cool evenings. Perfect.

I still love it.

Just an update about my condominium: It's still great. I can now successfully navigate my way around all three floors, and I especially like the penthouse level where I get a bird's-eye view of my house.

Weather: Not typical for July. Been cool lately.

Nap Time With Mama

Okay, I'll admit it. I call my female human "mama." Please don't make fun of me. It's just that I really appreciate the way she takes care of me like I was her child.

One thing I'm missing with my mama, er...female human, is nap time. During June she was on vacation, and we did A LOT of this:

Now that she's back at work, we can't nap together as often.
I miss her.

Weather: Temperatures steadily soaring upward.

My New Condo

About two weeks ago, my humans hooked me up
with a kitty condominium.

IT'S AWESOME.

What I really want to know is: What took them so long?!

I love my new condo, and if you ever come to visit, you'll surely find me on one of the three tiers.

Weather: For this 3-day weekend, I heard it's gonna be so hot.
