Weekend Happenings...

Ohohohohoh, mom and da sister-in-law are taking us and Alfred to da cabin fur da weekend. No men, no kids, no work...just us and dem! It's gonna be a good time. If anycat would like to teleport up (Misty) yoo can, it's almost da middle of Wisconsin. Just go north once yoo get to da border and look fur da long rectangle lake wif da red and white church at one end. Don't go by da piksher we posted last time, da place haf been added on to and now haf a wrap around deck and a red roof...it's da only cabin wif a red roof so yoo can't miss it. We can either play on da screen porch or go out in da "chicken coop" and play. Mmm, fresh air and sunshine, just what we all need. See yoo der!

Mancat Monday

*sigh* We is gonna hafta go home today...I gess it will be nice to see all our old familiar stuff but I like it here at the cabin. We hafta haf some truth in advertising here, dat piksher of da cat run is what Jared, da kitty spoiling nefew, emailed to mom to show her da run. It was taken after dey moved it early last fall. Der is no leaves on da trees, just buds. It's really nice when der is sunshine and only a little breeze but da first day out der it kept getting windier and windier and finally we all crowded into the corner where the tree blocked some of the wind! Even Alfred wanted in when it gots windy. We haf played lots of fun games like Thundering Herd (even Alfred played) and whap da mouse unner da stove and laff when mom "fetches" it. Da best game of all was hang from da screens on da porch! Mom kept yelling and Jared told her "oh, Shelly's cats do that all summer" cuz da guy dat owns da place has 5 cats and 2 ferrets so he put "pet proof" screening in. Mom also brawt along our cubes and tunnel and a cuppul of our toys. Oh, when we first got there they hadda uncover all the furniture, take big sheets of plastic off da beds and put on sheets and turn the water back on...den dey took out da big sucky monster and chased us all around wif it! Okay, Alfred sez I should tell yoo about all da aminals dat we haf seen either from the screen porch and da cat run...We saw
Ducks dat were green and some dat was brown
Skwerrels
little brown birds
big black birds
a peacock (who was prancing around showing off his tail!)
a cardinal
da groundhog fambly dat lives unner da pole barn
a fat oranch cat dat lives in da next house and is not frendly (he wasn't suppose to be outside and his mommy yelled at him for hissing at us)
a skinny gerl walking a little dog
a tall boy on rollerblades (but mom sez he wouldn't be dat tall if he din't haf da wheels on his feet)
more ducks, but deze were all white
and lots of mousies, voles and bugs!
So, here is da big thing, da man dat owns it wants to sell and he wants to sell it to someone in da fambly...and dad says he would buy it but we would need extra money and mom sez she would get a job if dey decided dey really want to buy it! It's only a 45 minit drive from our house and we was really good on da drive up and only cried a little bit at first and den we just went to sleep in our carriers as soon as we stopped making all dem turns and bounceing in da potholes. So mom is gonna start looking fur a jobbie and dey is gonna talk and talk and talk some more about buying but yoo know what....it don't really matter who in da fambly buys it we is always gonna be welcome to go der and enjoy ourselfs and if we do buy it effuryone else would be welcome too!
Here is what I plan on doing when we get home...

Sunday in the cabin

Speedy: Mom, is dis where we'z gonna live now?
Mom: No, we're just going to spend an extra day sweety. Your sisters are having fun, aren't you?

Speedy: Yeah, we kinda like it. Der's more open space fur us to run around da place den at home!
Zippy: Where's lunch mom? I'm hungry...all this running around makes a girl famished!
Sadie: Zippy, look I found another squiggle! Come chase me...it's so nice dat we get to be frendlier here. Turns out yoor a good sisfur after all.
Zippy: I'm trying to get us some lunch Sadie, come stand next to me and look pathetic.
Speedy: Oh yeah, some lunch would be really good! Mom, we are starving!
Mom: Okay you guys, I'll refill your bowls. Hey Alfred, would you like another rawhide?

Oh, and dis is da "chicken coop" dat we were suppose to enjoy sooooo much...it gots moved from da side of da house to unner a tree. Yes, dat is a truck cap laying der. Der was a lot of junk around it dat mom and da nefew hadda move and clean up afore we could even get into it! Yeah, it was okay fur a little while but den we all sat in da corners looking sad so mom let us come in da house. Dis place is really neat, it's all open except fur one room and da bathroom and da stairs dat go to a really neat balkonee dat has four sets of bunk beds! Oh, and der is a really cool screened in room dat we all been sitting in too! Oh, and I haf been playing a little bit wif Sadie...as long as we'z all trapped here we acided dat we should try to get along. Da sleeping arrangements mean dat we haf five beds wif beans to choose from and three wifout. Or we can sleep in da big bed in da private room...but we gots lonely in der. Da first night here we went from bed to bed and kept waking beans up and getting yelled at. So, we finally decided dat I get to sleep wif da SIL and Sadie and Speedy sleep wif mom and Alfred, of course, sleeps in his own bunk. Altho, I did spend some time sleeping on da nefew this morning. Hey, he was da only one left in bed! So, we discovered dat der is internet here...took us a whole day to discover it or should I say we kept pointing it out to da beans and it took them a whole day to notice. There is something wrong wif mom's camera again, it won't go flash so all our pikshers are really dark!
