Discovering the Harry Potter Closet: Part 2

…if you recall, I left you yesterday as I was heading to the back of the Harry PotterCloset…it was at that time that I noticed something looming in front of me…Oh My Cat!!!!

Another revelation about my new furrever home…not only do they have totally waaayyyy too many of those bottles with liquid grapes in them …right in front of me what do I see???!!

A whole box full of liquid hops!!! OH CAT!!

What is with my peeps???  I am concerned that they seem to have all this fruit and grain stuff turned into liquid!  Why, why, why I ask myself????…

…so I stop a moment in my exploration and investigation of the Harrry Potter Closet to ponder this enigma…hmmmmm…that box looks like the size Dad calls a “Kays’…not sure what that means…..ahhhhh, lemme see…oh yeah…and its says something like ‘Moedaylow’ on it…hmmmmm…maybe I have seen that before on that bottle he pours liquid out of when he watches sports…it has a lot of icky white stuff that floats to the top…(shaking head) …weird…

…now for the hardest part of the exploration…I go behing the Moedaylow Kays…to the darkest part of the Harry Potter Closet…it is low, kind’a coolish and….oh….there is space back here for me to just slide into to check the back corner…ooopppsss…I can’t seem to get my butt and tail all the way in…sheesh…and I have totally been workin’ those glutes!…

…oofffff…got turned around…now for the dangerous trek back out of the darkest part of the closet…slowy, slowly, one paw at a time…trying to not leave paw prints…remember…I am an FBI Agent now…just waiting on my assignment from Chief FBI Agents Nellie and Kozmo…

…aaahhh…finally I can see the opening again…it is lighter…I look up…

….OH NO! It can’t be!!!

…How did I miss it on my way in!!!!… Gasp!!!

…tomorrow I will finally reveal the most horrid secret of the Harry Potter Closet…what Mom and Dad have been hiding from me all along….wipes sweat from forehead, brushes cobweb from nose…sneeze!…ugh…it is kind’a like dusty in here…hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

Discovering the Harry Potter Closet: Part 1

Oh My Cat!  I know I have hinted in a couple of posts and in some of my comments on other blogs about my upcoming revelation of the HARRY POTTER CLOSET in my furrever home!!!

OH CATS!!!!  WHO KNEW….IN MY OWN FURREVER HOME…SWEET!!!

HIGH PAW PUMPS FOR ALL YOU POTTER FANS…and very low paw pumps for those who are not….(sighing sheepishly…)

This is how it goes…THE DISCOVERY…

…a mysterious door outside our bedroom door has always caught my interest…but it is kept closed almost all the time…and I am not allowed in it….hmmmmm….

…YEOWSIE MEOWSIE!! It’s OPEN!!…Oh My Cat!!…what’s in there…kind’a dark, huh?..

…GRAPES!!!…why would they keep GRAPES in here??…and all turned to some liquid!!…

…hmmmm…I better check this out more closely…ahh…they keep the really good stuff up high…wonder why???…what’s with this Harry Potter closet anyways…

…ohh…there is more stuff back here…better take a peek to make sure it is safe…carefully lifting one paw high to take first step deeper and deeper into the darkness…

…check behind the grape liquid first…make sure no one is hiding (Nellie and Kozmo, the heads of our FBI agency,  would be proud of my investigative skill…)

….AHHH HAAA…darker, and darker…must be cautious…there is more back here than meets the eye or paw…one paw in front of the other…very slowly making no sound…careful, careful…sniff, sniff, sniff…hmmmmm…what’s that smell??….no, it can’t be!…nawwww…

….do ya think it could be…….ohhhhhhhhhhhh….

The Harry Potter Closet is vast…and it gets darker and darker as I go deeper and deeper…Part 2 tomorrow…much to reveal…

I Have a Voice!!…Who Knew!!

It seems sort’a silly when I think about it…a cat that doesn’t know it can use its MEOW to get stuff done, emmmmm, by the peeps, of course! And that voice is good to defend the house when on patrol too!

A couple of things to share today…I have a voice!  And if I use it just right…I can get Dad and Mom to do stuff for me….and I can let them know I like something they do, like feed me!

When I was in the shelters, I mostly never said a thing…no meows, no purrs, no nuttin’ came out of my voice…then when I got my furrever home, I started to talk to Mom a bit…just about some stuff like my memories and things…and I started to talk just a bitty bit with Dad…mostly sports ‘cuz he likes that, but sometimes we talk politics or I watch the Military Channel with him…he likes that historical stuff so he brushes me, I purr to let him know I like it and we watch TV.

Now, here’s what I am discovering about my voice…and I can be really loud!  Who Knew!!  This morning for the first time, I decided I needed my brekkies and did not want to wait for Mom and Dad to get up…so I helped MOM!  You Got It!!!  I helped her by using my VOICE!!

First, I sleep between them…so I decide to walk right across Moms butt to her other side (I never walk across her, I always go around, not this time)….so I am now right in her face and I USE MY VOICE…MMMEEEOOOWWWW!!! about an inch from her nose!  Wow…she woke right up!!!  Wooo Hooo….I am gettin’ it…use the voice, especially a loud one…to get nom noms….and to get the ‘rents to do it when I want it….ok,ok,ok…got that!

Then I learned I can encourage Dad to walk a bit faster to get my brekkies if I FOLLOW him down the hall to the kitchen and surpervise him prepping my nom noms! Course, I talk to him the whole time so’s he knows I am anxious and starving….worked pretty good this morning so will do again tomorrow….

Finally, last night I was completing my final patrol of the house…and I found the breakfast room slider still open…so I sat there a bit takin’ in the night breeze…and OH MY CAT!!!!  Another cat came on my deck….so I USED MY VOICE to protect the house and let Dad and Mom know they were in danger!!!  YOWL…GRRROOOWWLLL…WAROWWWW…and so on….got Dad to come runnin’…he took care of that cat…but I USED MY VOICE to save us…

After all, this is now my furrever home and I need to start taking part…I am learning about using my voice…

Course, I don’t have any corresponding photos to go with this new learning…but thought ya might like to see me playin’ with my paper bag PLUS the shredded newspaper my pals Nibbles, Nutty, Bingo and Buddy over at Hutch A Good Life told me to use…WILD, CRAZY noise it makes…luvluvluv it!!

…first the ole’ ‘check it out’ move…

…then check it from other angles in case something is gonna grab me…

..now rough up that shredded newspaper…what a ruckus it makes…luvluvluv it!

…finally…enjoy late afernoon sun puddles when I am spent from playing with another new thing…

I had a really good day and night Monday…hmmmm…maybe because it was a special day to remember others who had the courage to stand up for something and  sacrifice for it…both humans and canines…hmmm…wonder if that is helping me to find the power of my voice….need a nap to ponder that…
