Did I mention that Maura has made herself at home?
Like all cats in the house, Maura adores hanging out on my desk. She jumped up yesterday to do so, and found that her favorite bed was occupied by those little whippersnappers. So she patiently waited.
Eventually, they went off to play, and Maura claimed the bed for herself. But then she fell asleep and when she woke up, she saw a most distressing sight.
“Are there hate rays boring into the back of my head, or am I just imagining that searing pain?”
Corbett finally gave up and went off to find a more hospitable environment, and like a big lump of bread dough, Maura managed to somehow expand to fill the space available to her.
One thing I like to do, because I’m evil, is to wait until all the Bookworms are sound asleep in the computer room. Then I go to the other end of the house, lay on the couch, and call “Where’s my itty bitties?!”
(When I’m calling them, I call them my itty bitties, obviously. I don’t know why or where it came from, but it works to get them moving in my direction.)
This time around, I got three itty bitties and one big ol’ Portly Poo.
(Please note, my moviemaking skills are not All That.)
Elwood in a box! “Who, me? In a box? Never!”

Nothing cuter than a bunch of little kitties running at you! Love that video!
You are killing me with the cuteness! I love that Miz Poo came running, too.
~Poor poor itty bittys… Woken out of a sound sleep, just HAVE to come a runnin’ to see what Mama wanted… And Miz Poo- she can get a little bit of speed going too !
Evil you are-

I had a dream last night that was a Bitchypoo/Pioneer Woman cross. In it you were taking pictures of the herd of cats as they milled around waiting for the feed truck to drop off fixings for Snackin’ Time. My head is SUCH a strange place to live.
Ha – I love it! ๐
Love the itty bitty movie! ๐ All I have to say is “Kitties Hungry?” and here they come a-running. Jack usually slides across the kitchen floor and crashes into the cabinets. Kills me everytime!
Oh, the kitten purring! I love that sound. Someone should make a recording of that to sell to insomniacs. It’s so soothing.
I loved the purring too. Miz Poo said she will always be Queen of the itty bitties! Elphaba is a cat who comes when SHE feels like it. I love the Maura pics and commentery-spreading like dough, evill, hate rays-lol! She looked pretty tiny until she spread out. Is she a petite chubby one or was it just the photo’s perspective?
I loved your little bitties video. Sooo cute.
Loved the video, and so did my cats Jack and Georgia. As soon as you said “where’s my itty bitties??” they both came out of nowhere and jumped up on my desk to answer you. Just goes to show you that ALL cats are Robyn’s cats in one way or another! LOL!!
I AM DYING FROM THE CUTE!!!!!
Some randomly odd/weird questions for Friday:
Do George & Gracie go nuts when they see the cats outside? What are the cats reaction to G&C? Also, have you ever had hate mail from someone who thought you were breeding kittens?

Robyn – Jane gave me the green light to do a 5K to support breast cancer services in her honor (she said it was OK as long as I ran in honor of Jane’s Jugs). I have a fundraising page http://walk.networkofstrength.org/JanesJugs
and if you feel so inclined it would be nice if you’d put it on your page – you reach a lot of people and I feel that this is an important cause.
Thanks!
You bet, Paula! ๐
