We are both two years old! Wow! Two at two I guess.
Gus and I love parties. You can see how excited we are in our photo. We had a wonderful birthday party with kitty tuna. I got to lick the sauce and Gus got to eat the lumps. We like it that way best. I like the juice; Gus likes the lumps. Sometimes I eat the lumps, too. Gus is very nice and always lets me wash the lumps when he’s at my house. We are good buddies.
Our mommies and daddies were very nice to us; we even got presents. We got to run and chase each other. I was VERY fast; Gus was VERY FASTER!
We apologize for the delay in posting our Easter Buddy photos (oh and a short movie too). We had lots of fun on Easter at Timmy’s house… oh and we had a squabble too. Kitty squabbles happen sometimes. But even though we do argue occasionally, we always end up being best buddies.
As most of you already know holidays are for dressing up. Our mommies and daddies think it is cute when we get dressed. They even make us pose for pictures. We are not so sure; you can judge whether you like us in our Easter finery or not.
Gus:
This is me… showing off my tummy, nice shirt and super fancy neck tie. I like wearing these and think they make me very handsome. -Gus
Timmy:
I am laying on the ground… they put a t-shirt on me and made me wear Gus’s tie. I don’t like wearing shirts or ties; it makes me lay very still on the floor! I could not move until they took the clothes off of me. Sometimes I have to do what everyone wants just to keep them happy. I am glad that Gus likes clothes, I don’t. …timmy

Oh and if you’d like to see the video of our Easter squabble….
About a week ago, Mommy found some owies on my back. She and Daddy thought I had just scratched myself. So she cleaned them up, put some bandage spray on them, and made me wear a t-shirt. I thought I was getting better, but it hurt a lot every time she put bandage spray on it, and I had to cry. But this morning, she found a big bald spot on my back. My owies were now very very big.
So she called the vet (I HATE THOSE PEOPLES!!!) and they said to bring me right in. So Mommy and I got in the car (I love car rides, cars are fun) and Mommy got lost- we did not get out of the car at Timmy’s house?!?! I really don’t like it when she gets lost. She shouldn’t do that- we should only visit my friends.
We go into the vet, and I start crying, and I don’t want them to touch me. But Mommy puts me down anyway. (She’s so mean!) The doctor says that they have to give me nice meds, because I’m being so grumpy. Then they tell Mommy that I have an infection and they have to shave me and clean it out, and give me a very big shot of antibiotics.
Then Mommy left me alone. I don’t really know why she left me alone. But when I woke up, Mommy was standing in front of this really weird cage and trying to get me out! Daddy even came with to pick me up. I was really lucky. They brought me home, and it was so fun! Everything is very exciting, and I fall off of things, and I have to eat a lot and give lots of kisses. It makes Mommy and Daddy laugh a lot. They think I’m cute. So I’m talking to them and telling them lots of stories. They like it when I tell them stories.
This is what the world looks like to me right now.
I like to help Mommy on laundry day. I’m a good helper. I hold things down for her, and I make sure that she trips a lot over me. So without further ado, here are pictures of me helping. (Sorry they’re blurry, Mommy’s phone isn’t very good.) As you can see, first I hopped into the Laundry baskets.
Then I hopped into the tub, and I was playing with the drain plug. It was very exciting!!!
Then I got tired and I had to take a nap. In the piles of clean laundry. Because I know Mommy and Daddy just LOVE my fur all over their clothes!!
Wow, yesterday’s visit with Gus was sure nice.He is my friend.
We had lots of fun and wrestled, talked and chased but now I am tired. I watched birds, laid in the sunshine and yelled lots when Gus got lost. He got lost many times. Sometimes he was lost and hiding behind my back, where I wasn’t looking.
It was so exciting I had to go to sleep… even today I am still sleeping. I get very tired when Gus visits and plays with me.
I came down from my night sleep this morning and cuddled mommy and daddy. I quickly ate my breakfast; I like food. I followed mommy downstairs to her office and quickly laid in her chair… I will churp and purr when mommy or daddy come by and want to give me pets and cuddles. But mostly, I will take a small break and rest from my fun visit. Today I think is going to be a good day; I will sleep some.
Today has been one of those great days. My buddy Gus came to visit me!
I gave Gus great big hugs when he arrived. He hugged me back and made lots of good Gus noises… and hit me on my head with his front paws. I closed my eyes and fell on top of him and hugged him some more. I think he likes my hugs.
Gus’s mommy brought lots of food for me to eat… I like eating Gus’s food best. Gus likes eating mine, too.
We went into my play room; we ran VERY fast around my house. Mommy opened windows for us to look out of and I looked outside. Gus hid from the sunshine and looked out the windows from the back of the sofa. Gus likes being up high; I like being warmed by the sun. We played chase many times around the house. When Gus got lost, I yelled loudly for Gus to come play. He just ignored me. I tried to get Gus to come watch my birds, but he stayed on the ground and looked at other things.
When Gus laid down for too long in my favorite places, I ran and made him move away. He made lots of noises, waved his arms, tried to hit me in the face but he finally left.
Gus and I slept a lot. I got to lay in the sunshine by my window; Gus slept on the sofa and on the dining room table- he likes sleeping up high.
We had a fun time, ate each others food, and used each others litter pans.
My buddy Gus… he came to visit me today. I like Gus; he’s my best friend. Gus tells me what to do. I am never lost when he is at my house- he gives me good direction and guidance.
The sun was shining and Gus let me sit near him and look out the door. I forgot to listen Gus’s instructions and sniff where he wanted. Gus went outside with his mommy. I got to stay inside, I like it best in my house.
Gus let me try some of his tuna water. Gus likes his tuna water a lot -I only drank a little.
Today we played a lot. We ran around the house. We were friends. I ran very fast.Gus jumped on me, put his feet on my back, hissed and told me not to attack his feet. He made many loud noises. He showed me his teeth and rolled on the ground with his feet in the air. Gus is funny. I like him a lot. Today I watched him roll around and listened to him make loud noises and follow his instructions. We played. Our mommies thought we were very funny.
Yesterday was a very scary day. Mommy got up EARLY in the morning (she never does that) and gave me snuggles. Then we went on a car ride. I like cars. But then she took a wrong turn. We went to the doctor. I shook and cried, but she took me in anyway. Then to make it even worse, they took me away from her! They put me in a kennel in the back for a very long time. There were dogs barking, and kitties crying, and weird smells and it was scary!!! Then they took me out and shaved one of my legs and put something in it. It hurt, so I kicked it out. Then they shaved one of my front legs. I started waving and crying because I wanted Mommy. They said I was being difficult. So they shaved my other front leg and put something in there that made me feel really tired and yucky. Then they cleaned my teeth (or so Mommy tells me). Then they put me back in that kennel. I don’t like kennels. They gave me more medicine, it made me see things. It was scary. Then Mommy and Daddy came to pick me up. Daddy NEVER comes to the doctor! I must have been really lucky. (or bad depending on which way you look at it) I sat on Mommy’s lap the whole way home. She didn’t know why I was scared. They had only told her that I would be sleepy. I was scared of the lights and of moving. We went upstairs, and Mommy let me out. I got REALLY scared. I ran into things and I fell on my butt. People made noises and I fell on my butt. I couldn’t walk straight, and I didn’t know who Mommy and Daddy were. So Mommy called the doctor. Then they put me into the bathroom with my pan, my food, my bed, and my favorite toys. I calmed down. It was dark. Soon Daddy came to let me out. Mommy said that I had eaten a lot. I liked my food. I ate two whole cans! I’m going to be a big boy. Then I went and snuggled with Mommy and Daddy on the couch. We watched TV together. I fell asleep.
I gave Gus great big hugs when he arrived. He hugged me back and made lots of good Gus noises… and hit me on my head with his front paws. I closed my eyes and fell on top of him and hugged him some more. I think he likes my hugs.
