Oh No!! I Damaged Mom!!!
Well, ya may have been wondering why I all of a sudden started to check out Mom’s lap…errrr…ummmm…oh gosh! Sooooo embarrassing….paws on side of face, shaking head…oh cat, oh cat…
So if you have been around my bloggy much, ya know I luvluvluv a good game of “Oh No! Mice in the Bed”….mostly me and Mom play it…but sometimes I get Dad about 2Am…MOL
Anyways, so a couple of nights ago…well—first ya need to know that we changed our bedspread from the Spring weight one to the Summer weight one. Mom calls it something like Seerer Suker (what’s a ‘Seerer’?? and what do they ‘Suker’??) So…this bedspread is thin, with a cotton sheet under it then peep skin…got it??
So the night I am talkin’ about was chilly, so Dad (he’s so nice like this…purrr) he gets a couple of afghans…one for him, one for Mom and both for ME ‘cuz I sleep in the middle.
They are in bed…Mom moves her feet…I raise my head…then Dad says to Mom something like…”Ya better not do that, you’ll be sorry…” and Mom just giggles…
And…the game is on with me and Mom…Oh No! Mice in the Bed!!!…
…I lay down, real quiet like…watchin’ and waitin’…
…WHAMMO…the mice move…and I go for the kill immediately…diving right in for them…
…whoa! where did they go??? Which way??…I must be alert!!…
…there!…over there!!!…grab quick…claws out to get a good killing grip…
..aiiee! they slipped past me!…now where???…wait for it, wait for it….
…GOT IT!!! Ah HA!!…get it fast…don’t let go…make this one the real final blow…
…Oh, what was that?? Did Mom say something??…I thought she said something like, errrr…ummmm…wellll…did she say ‘couch’ or ‘shout’ ….
…why is Dad getting up…going to the bathroom…now Mom is going too…Dad said something like “Told ya so” and Mom just giggles…and…oh gosh…is she kind’a limping???
…why do they have this stuff out????
OH NO!!!! I DAMAGED MY MOM!!!! SHE WAS BLEDDING!!! AWFUL!!!…
Can you see her boo-boo??? It is almost healed now…but for the last couple of days I have been letting her know how sorry I am and so I am trying to work on getting in her lap ‘cuz I know that will make her feel way better…
Just a little head’s up for all you guys readin’ this…whatever ya do…DON’T DAMAGE MOM!
…sigh…Paw pats, Savannah
PeeEss Mom gets her mani/pedi on Monday…whew!

Oh I luuuuuuuuuuuve this game!
oh yeah!!! me too…but Dad and Mom…well, not so much with the Summer lightweight bedspread…we have to find a way to ‘improvise, modify, etc.’…semper fi!!!! (remember the Clint Eastwood movie???) Oh Cod…right, your peeps are not so old as mine!
FaRADaY: you should see what I did to mommy’s finger on Sunday *SCORE!*
Maxwell: dude, that is NOT nice! Savannah’s got the right catitude here.
FaRADaY: b-b-but…Mommy had ABANDONED us for a WEEK! Don’t you think she deserved it…a little bit???
ooohhh Faraday, she left for a whole week??? No way!
Poor Mom – mind you, humans heal fast and forget, so, moving swiftly onwards… 😉
yup…we already started playing ONMITB again…Mom rocks MOL
aaaaaaaaaw, too bad human’s skin is so fragile. I sometimes also do that when we play the mouse in the bed game. Specially in the summer time when the bedspread is thinner.
the Summer bedspread is to blame! I don’t need my claws trimmed!….I overheard them start to plot the next attack…ugh
of course it is the bedspread’s fault!
Sweet Savannah that is nothing but a wee scratch and we bet it heals in no time. We are pretty sure your mom knows you did not mean to damage her. Those bed mice are just too tempting. Hugs and nose kisses
oh I know it was small…and of course Mom knew I was just being me, a cat…but I still was bummed I damaged her…widh they would put the Spring bedspread back on ‘cuz it was thicker…sigh
Whoa! You caught a Bed Mouse! Those are the best kind. Your Mom’s injury has nothing to do with you. The bed mouse got her. I REALLY mauled Pop’s foot back in March and blogged about how it tasted like chick-hen. You owe your peeps NOTHING!
You are right CK!! And catching a bed mouse is no small feat…right??!! Ya have to really go after ’em hot and heavy…no mercy…thanks, I need to lighten up on myself…
Guess what? It’s my turn to give you an award. That’s right, you won an award! Come on over to Nerissa’s Life and check out your brand new, sparkling award. CONGRATULATIONS!!! purrs
Oh Nerissa! how kind of you…and the Kreative Award?! Wow…not sure I am very creative, but I DO try! I will post it this week…huge paw pats to you for thinking of me…
Forgot to say, pop and see me, you can snuggle up on my bed with me! 🙂 That was a chat-up line.
Alfie xx
mollie and alfie
whoa ho! my first ever ‘chat-up’ line…hmmmmm…what is that anyway??? Oh well, I only like to snuggle with Mom and Dad…I don’t think I wanna share any nap space with another furriend, no matter how much I like ya Alfie…I like my personal space…MOL
Can’t blame a cat for trying 🙂 you’re a Dol savannah, you should see the gals on my patch, huh! 🙂 Mol
Alfie xx
Awwwwww…thanks Alfie! I have trouble seeing myself as a ‘doll’ ‘cuz I kind’a have a ‘full figure’ still. But Mom and Dad and I are working on it what with my diet (read food controlled) and my fitness program…I am pretty buff! MOL
Hay, Savannah. Look at the good that has come out of this ! If you hadn’t played the game, damaged Mum’s toe in all the excitement and all that guilt swimming around in your head ( games usually end in tears by the way! ) You would of never given Mum a ” Lapcuddle! ” and known how good that feels 🙂 And as for Mum, she was so happy you crept up on her lap, that I’m sure her ” gushing with blood! ” toe, was the last thing on her mind! 🙂 So Savannah, all’s well that ends well. 🙂 No more feeling guilty!! You have a good day, it’s raining here, so I’m gonna find a bed to snuggle on, one without TOE’S in it!! MOL.
Big Purrs my furriend,
Alfie 🙂
you are so right Alfie! Mom didn’t mind the scratch on her toe at all…she is just more careful when we play ONMITB
Don’t worry, Savannah! I think you’ve been forgiven.
oh I have , I have 🙂
Glad to help a (local) girl out 😉
Oui Oui at twinkletoetails.blogspot.com gave very thorough instructions (not that MY Human even tried to do it!!) a few weeks ago in her posts on May 29, 30 and 31. I bet your Person is smarter than mine (though maybe not, considering that toe incident, MOL). Good luck!
ooohhh I gotta go check that out! Thanks lots Spitty!
Savannah, Savannah, Savannah….C’mon! Man up! (Well, Woman-up)! Stop apologizing. You have done NUFFING wrong. When the Humans put their pathetic, hairless, soft-skinned NAKED TOES in front of the kitteh and start playing “Mice in the Bed,” They.Deserve.Whatever.They.Get.
No need to be sorry. Hold your head high. They are waaaaaay bigger than us and should be able to take care of themselves. They have the “Big” Brains and the Thumbs and they feel sooooooooo superior to us. Yep, well, okay. Part of that is keeping themselves out of harm’s way.
Remember this for the future.
ooohhhh Spitty…from a fellow Californian…that is so inspiring!! Thank You!! And you are so right…Mom always knew of the DANGER!! after all…she is the one to whack off my claws…she outta know how long and sharp they are, huh??
Such good coaching Spitty, thank you so much…I will remember
You are so right – never damage mom. he he
uhh yeah! Moms are like, totally sacred
Uh oh! Jen has also had that happen to her before. I’m sure it was an accident there just like here.
of course…but makes for a pretty good post, huh?! And oh cat! was that ever one our bestest ever Oh No Mice in the Bed games…woo hoo
Hey, it is okay Savannah. We the foot monster shows up you just have to pounce! That is Feline Rule #872!
uummmm…so Brian…what are the other 871 Rules????
Well, they started it! You may have damaged Mommie, bugt she enticed you into it!
Totally! blame the peeps, blame the peeps…Nerissa teaches me that all the time MOL
Aw, I’m sure you were forgiven in moments! They know it was unintentional! I’ve got a big set of three long scratches across the whole top of my foot at the moment myself, but it will go away! I would rather have kitties and scratches than no kitties and no scratches!
awwww…Dad and Mom feel the same…but it was a great game of Oh No Mice in the Bed until I drew blood!
PlumaBlanca, the working cat says, “Thanks for the advice, sometimes I makes Dad bleeds, but I don meanta, I just wanna catch the toy. But I will try and be carefuls of him.”
Hi Pluma B, and yep, I didn’t mean to either…gotta be careful of the peeps…pretty soft skin and no claws
Unfortunately, damaging Mom is a problem here, too. We are sum pretty hard biskit makers! MOL!
ooohhh yeah…there is that too…I get so into the bread making I forget to keep my claws in all the way…causes an little “ouching” noise every now and again
Just so you know…bluds taste mighty fine!
heh heh heh.
XX Grayce, The Biter
Grayce!!! careful, the bipeds might read what you wrote! And I couldn’t taste it ‘cuz it was my claw…not my mouth silly furriend!
Awwww… sometimes the humans just have to take one for the team though, they are good for that.
hey good call! one for the team….”yells downstairs…Mom, Mom…the guys over at Wazeau said you ‘took one for the team!’…how ’bout that”
Of course you didn´t mean to hurt your mom , Savannah !
I thought there was a mousie under my dad´s bedspreed this morning and went for it and strangely enough my dad yelled 😉
ooopps…hard to keep our claws from going for those bed mousies, huh?!
Savannah can you say that a bit louder so Austin hears?
Say 100 times “I must not make mom bleed”
sulking to the whiteboard…raises paw, starts writing ‘must not make Mom bleed’…’must not make Mom bleed’…
Oh Savannah… these things do happen. Not to worry though. If your mom was still able to giggle, she’ll recover just fine. purrs
Nerissa from Nerissa’s Life
oh we know…I just wanted to post about it…’cuz I have not drawn blood since my first couple of days here…and can you believe Nerissa,,that was 7 whole montsh ago??!!
Oh Savannah……listen my friend, over my 12 years I have damaged my Mom many, many times – never when I’m mad – just when we play. These things happen and your Mom and Dad understand believe me. They keep those bandaid things and that antiseptic stuff around if it’s a really BAD scratch because apparently humans are way more “delicate” than we felines! Just keep playing “mice under the covers”……they love it and obviously you do too!!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
yeah…me and Mom totally love playing that game, but you should have seen Mom’s surprise when I got all the way through the afghan! She thought that would protect her toesies…she did kind’a bleed lots tho;…so you are right, the peeps are just way more delicate than us cats…poor peeps
Yeah you gotta feel sorry for them….they just don’t make humans as tough as they do cats I suppose!
Sam 😀
