Whew! What a Workout!

Well, Mom and Dad left me alone all day yesterday…then last night…OH MY CAT!!

They decided I needed to do my WHOLE workout routine at ONE TIME!! I was ready for bed, but said “what the heck…I can do this!”  Even tho’ I, personally, had been very busy during the day…what with first watching the bedroom and hummer feeder outside…

Then I had to go do interior patrols…sittin’ on my cat tower to watch the finches and doves…err..umm…to make sure nothing was gonna get in the house from outside…then I had to go up and down the stairs, and watch the side yard from upstairs to make sure nothing could climb the wall and get in…’course I may have taken a little nap at each patrol station…

Soooo….they decide I need some exercise just ‘cuz THEY didn’t get any…so first they had me do about a catjillion reps of my core workout…ya know the one where you have to squeeze your abs tight to flip from side to side…and I had to do 2 sets!

Then they want me to get goin’ on my aerobic stuff to get my heart rate up and all…ya know this one…chase that stupid red dot you can never catch…

So first, ya have to see it…

…now get a good focus on it…

 

…next get it right between your paws for contol…

 ..aaiiieee yowl! it got away..run..

..then use your hind legs and try to pounce on it from above…

…now just breathe…and ignore it!

Then I catch my breath thinking Mom will be tired by now…but nooooooooo…she says there is still the upper body workout to do…ya know…building your chest, back, front legs…gettin’ good eye–prey—paw coordination…so out comes the green feather thingy (which I luvluvluv) but Oh Cat!…I’m getting a bit tired here…

So first I spot it moving over my head…

..then I use my upper body to pummel it

Well, now I am totally exhausted…I need a snack and my pets and my bed…I don’t think I will be so hard on the staff next time they take a day away.  Just sayin….

All Alone Am I…(pouting…)

Well…left all alone for most of today…Mom is just getting a teeny ity bity post off for me “cuz she is soooooo bbbbbiiiiiizzzzzzzzyyyyy! YUK! I totally do not like that peep word! Ugh!

I know, I know…I should cut her a bit of slack ‘cuz afterall…she and Dad were out hunting a new home for all of us.  Yup, we are gonna move in the next few months…not a pleasant thought for me ‘cuz I only just got here. shheeesshhh!

Anyways, I have just been napping my day away since there was no one here to play with ME! All Alone, just me, no one else, not even the music for company…they forgot!

And adding insult to injury…they left the bed UNMADE so I had to sleep on this icky mattress pad thingy…

Then I finally  moved to the floor so’s I could catch some sun puddles…

And finally! They get back home! And all they can say is “Hi Savannah…how was your day?”  You can guess what I was telling ’em with my eyes I betcha’….

Welll…I bet they don’t stay away so long next time…I mean really…they could of at least texted me or somethin’, right??!!  Oh well, tomorrow better be a whole lot less lonely that’s all I’m sayin…

Paw Waves, Savannah…purrr…zzzzzzzzzzz

Changing Roles…Takin’ Care of Mom!

Hiya everybody…concatulations on reaching the weekend! Fridays are one of Mom’s best days ‘cuz she really enjoys her gym class called spycling, or cypining, or something like that.

Anyways, she had a tuff night last night…realllly bad muscle cramp in her leg…so she couldn’t go to her fav gym class thingy.  So she stayed home with me!!! SCORE on my part!!!

So I am hanging out with Mom this morning making sure she is OK…and we are watching TV, talkin’ about stuff, sometimes just furlfriend stuff…ya know what I mean…

‘Course it looks like she is takin’ care of me ‘cuz I’m getting the chin rubs…but Mom and I were talkin’ and she told me how much she and Dad believe I have helped them too.  Isn’t that the sweetest thing you ever heard!

Honest, she did say that!  Mostly ‘cuz when they found me it was still only about a couple of months after their last of 3 cats went OTRB and they were pretty teary and stuff.  They were also totally committed to not having another cat or dog ‘cuz they are…uummm…aaahhh…what did she call it???….oh yeah…I think it was something like they are “”tyrd, reeteered” or something like that.  Anyways, they had been trying to figure out what to do with themselves so finding me was “the best thing ever” Mom said…she did…really!

See, Mom and Dad have always loved animals and they always had rescue cats and now they get to work with me and others like me and help tell our stories ‘cuz we can’t talk.  So me, Mom and Dad all help each other!  Pretty cool, huh?!

Oh…I have to go check the channel for Mom…let me go take a look…be right back…

OK…yup…it’s on the right channel for her…back to bed…

Well, I have to get going…we’ll probably play a bit later on…I’ll just snuggle down here and nap a bit just to keep her spirits up…not like I need to or anything…yyaawwnnn…purrrrrrrrr
