A Message From Cody-Bear

I would like to dedicate this song to my mother.

Yes, we all love GG,

including myself, I must admit,

but c'mon, Mom. 

Seriously? 

Why does she get ALL the love?

To answer you question of when I will stop attacking your ankles,

not anytime soon.

I'm not ready to make nice.

While we wait...

 

 

 

I have been getting great use

out of Greta's nursery.

I am not really sure why my mom

didn't buy me a comfy pad for cleaning my bum

but now that we have one in the house

I am taking full advantage.

Hey there.

I know, it's been a while. Quite a while, in fact.

But, you see, my parents have been obsessed with this thing they refer to as GG

and have sort of forgotten my internet privileges.

Anyway, Mom remembered today, so here I am!

 

And... back to this GG...

I totally knew something was up WAY before they did -- feline instinct.

At first, I was not cool with it AT ALL.

I am the baby, darnnit!!

So, I attacked Mom a lot hoping that she would get super annoyed

and change her mind

and somehow, pouf!, not be pregnant anymore.

But, that didn't happen.

 

Eventually, I came around to the idea of sharing the spotlight with another little

and have actually taken a liking to the idea over time.

 

My parents finally did something with that horrid {empty} guest bedroom.

Remember the double wall-paper?!

 

I wouldn't even go in that room with those awful patterns layered one on top of the other.

Not to mention, the disgusting dust and general grossness left behind

from the rents half-way attempt to peel the ugliness from the walls.

 

Now that they have cleaned it up a bit

{Mom says she will post a nursery update soon}

I love being in there.

They put a stool right below the window just for me to perch up on.

I guess I will keep an eye on GG from there, too.

 

I don't know what has come over me.

 I am sort of feeling protective of this little GG.

 

I can't have any sister of mine be pestered by birds, bugs, or mice.

{Don't worry, GG, I am pretty good at showing them who's boss!}

 

Also, Mom and Dad have talked a lot about being a good older sister

and not scratching her or biting her or peeing on her...

 {you get the point}

so I guess I can just be nice and cuddle and watch out for her.

 

 

 

 

But, I am totally confused as to why my mom is STILL pregnant.

Us cats pop those pups out (see what I did there) in nine weeks flat.

Not that I would ever know... Mom never lets me out of the house,

so I will never be able to find a suitable mate

{not that I would really want to be in the filthy outdoors anyway. Ew! Gross!}

 

Anywho!

This whole GG thing seems to be a L-O-N-G waiting game

and I am handling it pretty well, thanks for asking!

Seriously...

someone call protective services.

This is just not right.

Hey-yo!!

As you know, I have been working on my modeling skills.

I was doing a little research on the internet

and I stumbled upon every {feline} model's dream!

CatAtelier.

Check out this Etsy shop;

it is incredible!

Here is my wishlist:

Message From Cody-Bear

Hey-yo! 

It's been a while since I have been on this here blogger-oo!

Honestly, there really hasn't been much to report.

{Yawning.}

The rents have been working as usual,

with no snuggle snow days in the interim.

While they have been away for most of the day,

I have been working on my modeling skills. 

Seriously, what's a bored cat to do?

It's not like I am just going to lay around all day and let these good looks go to waste-- 

I mean have you seen my puppy dog eyes?

I have pretty much mastered the 

innocent-sweet-helpless look too.

See!?!?

Oh, and of course, I still have the over-the-shoulder classic in the bag.

Maybe I will put together a portfolio and send it to an agency.

Who knows, you might be looking at the America's Next Top Feline!

I'll keep you posted.

I know it has been a while.

But things are just fine.

I hope they are for you as well.

Today is really just a good day to stay inside and wrap up in a blanket.

I just wanted to pop in to say hi.

Happy weekend to all!

A Message From Cody-Bear

Aren't you jealous that I get to lay around all day
while you have to work
on this Monday morning?

A Message From Cody-Bear

In this house

we like to lazily lay in bed 

and cuddle on Saturday mornings.

Hope you are getting a chance to rest with your loved ones too.

A Message From Cody-Bear

Mom and Dad ,

I do not appreciate you making fun of me.

I love you and all,

but I do not find this funny.

Please stop making me your photography model

and just stick to rubbing behind my ears.

Thank you,

Cody-Bear

Mommy has to go back to school today.

These are my "puppy-dog" eyes,

{which are really hard for a cat to pull off},

hoping to convince her to stay and play with me all day instead.

We are home
and I don't think I have ever seen a happier cat in all my life.
She is curled up in my lap this very moment.

There is so much to post but I don't have the energy right now.
I promise lots of pics and stories to come!

Happy 4th of July Weekend!

I watched 4 movies on the flight home from Rome.
If you haven't already figured it out,
Country Strong happened to be one of them--
it was great and I am now obsessed with the soundtrack!
I am not usually a country music person, but...
with the sweet & sad story
these songs just pull at my heart strings.

A Message From Cody-Bear

Why must they always leave me?
Really would it be so hard
to bring a small seven-pound furry friend
with them to this place they call Europe?
Completely inconsiderate.

While they are away,
I guess I will keep up with things here.

Oh, and happy birthday to my Uncle Brett!
Come visit us soon.

A Message From Cody-Bear: Summer

Mom said it is officially summer.

She seems pretty dang excited.

I am just glad she will be home more 

to turn on the faucet when I need drinking water.

A Message from Cody-Bear: Hunting

I like to hunt.

As an indoor cat, 

I don't have as many opportunities as I would like.

Therefore, I am not picky.

Sure, mice are ideal but I will take flies, spiders, & ants.

But, today, I found a big, juicy cockroach.

I had him in my mouth when I came to show Mom.

I don't think she realized my prize 

because she scooped me up to give me a big mushy hug.

I was not having it, I mean, I was in predator-mode --

nothing like a cuddle from Ma to kill your buzz.

So, I squirmed out of her arms and as soon as she put me down

I spit him out. 

I hadn't gone for the kill yet {saving that for later}

so he starting running about.

Mom was totally uncool about this whole hunting situation.

She squealed and ran crazily around {stupid}.

I put my prey back in my mouth and got in full view of Mom

{I was showing off for her and she kept running away!}

Once in the middle of the room, I started batting him about,

playing with him before ending his life.

Just when I was going for the kill,

Mom took a honker of a book and 
SPLAT! 

laid him out flat. 

Nothing could have ticked me off more!

I had worked hard for that bug --

I don't get a lot of action these days;

and this, well, this was just awesome.

And there she goes, flattening my prize.

I didn't give up though.

After Mom left for the day, 

I got that little guy out from under there

and {pretended that I} killed him.

It wasn't until Dad got home that the cockroach disappeared.

A Message from Cody-Bear

I love weekends because
I drink water from the faucet,
and that is hard to do when home alone.

A Message from Cody-Bear

Woe is me.

My parents left me.

Cuddlin' Kind of Day

Comfy and cozy,

Cody keeps me warm 

on this chilly afternoon --

Thank you Cody!
