Nadine and Mercury



Venus here -

As promised, here are some pictures of Nadine and Mercury, since it seems this blog has opened up its membership to include the dogs. But only occasionally, understand? Don't think this is going to turn into "The Pluto and Nadine Dog Blog (featuring us cats every once in a while)". Let them get their own damn blog, that's what I say.

Invader!

Well, a lot has gone on around here since last we spoke. Our dad had the unmitigated gall to bring a new dog into the house! Just when we finally got our old one trained nicely, in comes a great galumphing galoot of a Dalmatian/Great Dane mix named Pluto. Dad thinks he's about 8 months old, but he's guessing 'cause he was a 'Pound Puppy' (I have no idea what that is!). All I know is he's a four-footed spotted tornado.

I've tried to make friends with him, honest I have, but he jumps and barks, so I have to hiss and yowl at him to teach him some respect.

A cat's work is never done.

A Cat's Work Is Never Done!




Venus here -

You can see by these pictures how hard I have to work around this place. My day begins at 6:00 in the morning, waking up James for school. Among my many other duties, I am the "Alarm Cat". Sure, they have a clock with an alarm, but I don't really trust it. My motto is, "If you want something done right, do it yourself!" Here I am helping my mom hem Sam's pants for his 8th grade graduation. I'm especially handy with thread. My mom doesn't realize how dangerous it is; I have to make sure it's nice and knotted up, so it won't hurt anybody. If my family only knew how vigilantly we protect them!

This is a Cat Blog, see?

Venus here -

When I saw my Mom spending so much time at her computer, I just had to know what she was up to! I got up on her lap and put my paws on the keyboard all the time like I saw her doing. Well, I found out what she was doing. She was blogging! So I knew I couldn't rest until I had a blog, too. Naturally, as soon as Mercury found out about it, he wanted one too, the copycat!

After a good deal of persuasion, Mom finally said we could have one. She wouldn't give us each our own, though - she said we had to share. I hate sharing! But, since Mercury is sort of lazy anyway, I figured that I would take charge of it, so I guess it's OK.

So, I start by figuring out what you're supposed to do with a blog by looking at my Mom's. Jeez Louise! Is hers ever stupid! Going on and on about totally useless stuff. And what's more, she lets just anyone write back to her! Even if she doesn't like what they write! I tell you what, people can be so stupid sometimes. What a mealy-mouthed pushover. No self-respecting cat would let people get away with that, I'll tell you right now!

So let me make this clear right now, people. This is a Cat Blog, understand? The only comments I will allow on my blog are those that are complimentary to the point of obsequiousness and respectful to me and my friend. Sycophants only are welcome here. You come here to worship the Goddess, or you take a hike, got it?

I knew you'd understand.
