Who Stole the Cookies?

“Who stole the cookies from the cookie jar?”

Not me person. I didn’t do it.

“Then who?”

Person, I don’t know. Are you sure my younger person didn’t eat the rest of those cookies? You know how much he likes them.

He wouldn’t what?

__

Oh.

He might leave the lid on the carpet in the other room. You never know. Maybe he got all excited when he was eating those cookies and forgot what he was doing.

Well, if he didn’t do it, I don’t know who did.

Oh look. There he is. Right by the evidence. Scratchy did it. He’s right there checking it out. Proof that he did it.

What? Of course he did. That Scratchy is always up to no good.

Okay, let me check. I bet I can prove it to you.

Hmmm. I think I left a few crumbs in here.

It’s so Comfy

18 Feb

I’m not allowed on the couches around here and it’s totally not fair. My people get to sit on those nice comfy couches – they can even curl up on them if they want to, and wrap themselves in nice, toasty blankets. What makes it even worse is that Scratchy is allowed to get on the couch any time he wants. As a matter of fact, Scratchy is allowed on all the furniture – the couches, the chairs, and even the beds.

Scratchy is even allowed on the countertops. Well, at least the one where his food is. I don’t know why my people don’t feed him on the floor. They feed me there.

I’m totally relegated to the floors. The hard, cold floors.

Person, you don’t have to ruin my story. I know there’s carpet on the floors and I have a bed I can lay on. I’m trying to make everyone feel sorry for me.

Anyway, I’d like my turn on the couch too but I have to wait until my people leave the house to get my chance. When I hear a car in the driveway I quickly get up and head to the door to greet my people. That way they aren’t suspicious at all.

Today I blew it though. I don’t know what happened. I must have really been sleeping soundly. I didn’t hear a thing – and then, there she was. My person had come in the door.

Oops! — I’m in trouble now!

Top of the Fridge

04 Feb

Hey Scratchy, my our person’s been gone for an awfully long time and she left your food dish on top of the refrigerator. I bet you’re getting really hungry.

You ought to go up and get it Scratchy. I know there’s not a lot of room to land up there, with your big bag of cat food and all that other stuff sitting up there. Now that I’m thinking of it, could you toss down some of my treats while you’re up there?

Well, just be careful. That purple watercolor paint is almost empty now so you won’t spill it again. Even if you do, there’s already a streak of it on the wall, so you’d probably just be making it better. A purple pattern on the wall would be nice.

Good try Scratchy. Yeah, I know it’s hard getting up there but you got your food dish down. You didn’t really want any of your food did you? That was a great aim because it landed right on the table.

I think I’ll just pull up a chair and have a tasty treat.

Blanket Cat

31 Jan

Scratchy is the weirdest cat I know. Well, he’s the only cat I know but he’s still weird. You know what he does? He’s in love with all the nice, soft blankets around here. The kind that my person likes to use to keep warm when she’s sitting on the couch.

Scratchy must think those blankets are his mama. He grabs them in his teeth, presses his paws into them, and makes a sound somewhat resembling a purr. It’s the only time he makes anything like a purring sound.

What really gets me is when Scratchy does that on my person’s bed. When she starts moving around in the morning he finds a soft blanket that’s been exposed and starts his thing. He goes right up next to my person and does this, but if she touches him – even if she accidentally brushes against him – he gets mad and bites her.

Person, I don’t think you should tolerate this behavior from Scratchy. I’ll take care of him for you. Just give me the word.

Scratchy, Get Down!

21 Jan

Hey person! Scratchy’s hiding in the bathroom!

I’d get him down for you but I can’t jump that high.

Come on, get him down person. You know what he’s going to do. He thinks we don’t know what he’s up to. As soon as he thinks nobody’s looking he’s going to jump down on the counter and get the frog.

Person, you shouldn’t have left the bathroom door open. It kind of defeats the purpose of leaving the frog in there so Scratchy can’t get him.

Scratchy, get down. I know what you’re up to. You’d better come down because I’m going to chase you as soon as you leave the bathroom.

Wait a minute. Maybe I should let Scratchy get that frog. If he gets the frog out of his container that frog would go hopping all over the house. What fun, pouncing on a hopping frog.

Never mind person, I think Scratchy’s under your bed.

Toss the Ball

13 Jan

Outside I love to play Frisbee, but my Frisbee isn’t allowed inside the house. I don’t know why. My person says it might break something, but how much damage can a piece of plastic make?

At least my person lets me have some toys in the house. I have some soft balls and sometimes when I bring them to someone they’ll toss them so I can catch them. Usually I bring them to whoever is closest. Sometimes this works and sometimes it doesn’t.

Well, the other day Scratchy was closest so I brought him my ball and dropped it at his feet. He just looked at it. He didn’t toss it for me. He didn’t even bat it back to me. He could have at least done that.

Come on, Scratchy. Pick that ball up in your little paws and throw it to me. I know you can do it.

Who Spilled the Beans?

06 Jan

Hey person, look at this pretty pattern I made on the carpet. Doesn’t it look nice?

What? I’m in trouble for that? No way!

I didn’t do it person. Honest, I swear. Scratchy did it. Look, he’s standing right over there. I just saw it and thought it was pretty. You know how much he likes to go counter surfing.

What do you mean, most of the beans are missing? I don’t know what happened to them. Did you check under the furniture? Maybe Scratchy ate them.

I bet he could. I bet Scratchy could eat that many beans if he really put his mind to it. Can we go for a walk now? I really feel like I need to go for a walk.

Aaaahhhhh! That feels much better. Relief!

What!? You found the missing beans? Oh no!

Busted!!!

The Perfect Christmas

26 Dec

This Christmas was really great. I got lot of presents.

Scratchy tried to take all the presents for himself.

Once we sorted all the presents out and I got mine, Scratchy did get a toy that he liked.

My favorite toy came from some of my friends. It was my favorite because my younger person played with me.

I got a reindeer that I really like too – because it has a loud squeak.

I haven’t figured out what to do with my big bone, so I’ve been carrying it around the house. I tried to take it outside to bury it but my person made me drop it before she’d open the door.

After we opened presents we got to go for a walk. I could have used some snow to play in but I can’t complain. It was a perfect day.

Blue skies - perfect temperature

This has been an exciting day. I think it’s time for a nap.

Good night.

It’s My Cubby

22 Dec

This is Scratchy here. Bongo and I were having a slight disagreement and I won, so I get to write on his blog today. All I was doing was trying to find a good hidey place – somewhere that I could have some peace and quiet. Somewhere where Bongo wouldn’t bug me.

So what does Bongo do? He’s totally jealous that I found this little cubby that I can fit into. Much too small for Bongo, but perfect for me. So he starts harassing me.

I know all of you who read Bongo’s blog think he’s some kind of perfect dog or something, but believe me he isn’t. Oh, the stories I could tell about him. After all, I’m just a poor little innocent kitty, and Bongo tried to chase me out of my cubby.

Well, I’ll get him this time. I’ve found the perfect place. It’s a good thing it’s Christmas time because for some reason my people only give me this place for a short time every year. And you know why it’s so perfect? Because Bongo gets yelled at if he tries to get back here.
