Oh humans, go on take my photo if you must. Haven’t you taken enough already? Here’s my best side.

I went to feed Scooby tonight. I’d been told he was scared of the garage door going up so I was quite worried that he’d not come to me, or be a bit skitterish but he wasn’t. He smooched and rubbed all over my legs and enjoyed a good pat. He *is* a really big puss and very soft. I felt just awful leaving him there in the dark garage when it was time to go.

Was a great thing to do on a night when the Mister is out of town … still waiting for a call to see if Xero has won an award at the HiTech Awards in Christchurch.

Might be going to visit Scooby next week – his human’s will be out of town and he needs to be fed. Have now seen him on video – he’s huge! And he seems to like drinking water.

I bravely decided to do the voice-over for a video for Help Centre which will eventually appear on our blog and website. I tried to ad-lib it but got quite wound up and upset when I couldn’t think and talk and demostrate all at once – I *so* thought I’d be able to do it! Anyway, the guy that normally records the videos said that for the first time a script would help and because I didn’t want to read it out, I wanted to speak with a smile in my voice I put a photo of his cat at the top of my script – meet Scooby …

… he’s just moved up from Christchurch and used the cat door for the first time 2 days ago and he came back and didn’t try to run all the way back to Christchurch!

The Moggie’s kitties have grown so much, and they’re lovely and soft and friendly and didn’t mind a pat at all.

I don’t speak German but find this video from YouTube adorable – a puss cat wandered onto the set of a local TV station’s weather segment last week and the weather presenter didn’t miss a beat and just picked the cat up and carried on with the weather.

At one stage the cat (Lupin) actually points to the weather map as well. Am sending the link to Basel Lisa to see if she can pick out what the guy is saying about the cat – he definitely says ’studio cat’ when he picks him up and from what I can tell refers to the cat again at the end.

Update: turns out my Orange Friend in Chicago has a husband who knows German! The weather guy says “And also our studio cat has just wandered in without permission” and picks him up then straight on with the weather. Towards the end he says something about it being cold and wintry and that he hopes that all the cats have thick fur to get through the night.

Went for a facial this evening and was treated to a bit of extra-special service! The face lady’s (as we call her) cat jumped in the window and wasn’t scared off by the mud pack so jumped up onto the bed and curled up on my legs to sleep! She doesn’t want to encourage it because obviously not everyone likes cats, cat hair gets everywhere, he’ll give people a fright if they’ve got their eyes closed etc but she made a special exception for me because she knows I love cats and always ask how he’s doing.

He’s not that old and this is only the second time I’ve seen him – she went to get him when he was kitten and had just arrived and brought him in so I could pat him. After I got up he rushed up to claim the bed as his own.

Just ‘happened’ to be driving by Pip and Pi’s house on Sunday morning so popped in for a visit. They’ve gotten so big in the couple of weeks since we first saw them. And after a bit of biting and running and farting they *both* settled down for a sleep on my knee and I was the cat who looked like he’d got the cream They really are soft and adorable.

They both take turns at sleeping on top of each other although it seems more often than not to be the bigger male Pi squashing poor little Pip.

And here they are – the gorgeous little kitties Pip and Pi that we met yesterday. They didn’t really stand still long enough for a photo but this is a relatively good one.

They’re so tiny and all they do is gallivant (as well as 12 weekers can) around the place, chew things (they loved the little wool balls I took them), fart and sleep. The tiniest one Pip slept on the Mister for quite a while – he’s smitten!

Going to see the new kitties soon!!! Am making their humans a blueberry lattice pie – I invented it last weekend in Mother’s kitchen and am trying to recreate it now … although Wellington blueberries are nowhere near as plump and delicious looking as the ones from down the road in Whakatane.

A bit later … here it is looking knobbly and homemade and pretty much like the one I made last weekend which turned out to be deLICious!
