Halloween hauntings!

(from the voice of Tasha) 

Hey Spencer,

You got your barking voice ready for tonight? It’s Halloween and all those little trick or treaters will soon be here in their costumes, and charging through the yard. I don’t know about you, but I’m going to make my bark as deep as I can. I won’t let those kids hurt my family. Have you ever thought about the silly tradition that it is and why it happens every year? Why would anyone want all that candy when beef tastes so much better?  

 Okay! here we go, our first child bark at. I get to bark first, Spencer. Race you to the fence. 

Bark, bark, bark, bark!

What Can You Do?

“I can lick my butt, What can you do?”  

The Call of Nature!

Last Friday night mom went to bed and forgot to put me in the garage where I usually sleep, so I settled down on my favorite chair under the dining room table. That was until the call of nature hit at 6 a.m. and I couldn’t get to my liter box, I needed mom to open the door for me, but there was the problem, she was sleeping. Imagine sleeping when I needed her. I crept into her room because the door wasn’t closed all the way and then I did what I do best. I jumped right up on the bed and mom was sleeping on her stomach and I walked all over her back, purring really loud so she would wake up. Well, she wasn’t the first one to wake up, I guess my purring woke Dad up and he asked mom, “why is there a cat on your back?” She really was a good sport about getting up and putting me to bed. She even carried me to the garage. Ah! that was like heaven.

A New Leash!

(from the voice of Sassy)

Mom must think I’m a dog. SHE BOUGHT ME A LEASH! What’s wrong with that woman? She says I need it for when we go to the vet. According to her, I might run away and get lost. Oh! come on now, I can find my way back from anywhere, I’m a cat. Since, I’m princess kitty I come and go as I please and my favorite place to be is on the roof of the house. When mom snapped the leash, a red one, to my collar, it scarred me.

I didn’t know what to do so I crouched down to the ground in an attack position and steadily crept down the front walkway and at least I was able to jump to my spot on top of the brick mailbox - it’s looks exactly like the flat roof that is on Snoopy’s doghouse in the Peanuts cartoon.

From here I can look at everything that goes on in the neighborhood and I’m safe from all those dogs that walk by. Most of the time they don’t even see me on my spot, but if they get to close I can whack them on the nose with my claws. Well, the leash continued to hang there from my collar and I didn’t know what to do with it. I sure was glad when it was removed and I could go back to being a cat.
