What Can I Say?


Monty Q was my first, and only, love. He made me laugh and he made me blush. Of course, I did my  best to make him blush too. We had a lot of truly wonderful times together, and we shared many sad ones. We brought our Moms together, and they are best friends, and that's really awesome.

Of course I knew back in November that Monty had run away to the Bridge. It was very hard to accept, but I know he is with Sprout and I also know that Gizzy is nearby. I am sure they are already best buds. 

Hold a spot for me there, dearest Monty. When my time comes I know you'll be waiting.

Purrs forever,
your Millie

Millie Monday

Sometimes Mom doesn't give me my treats right away when I ask. So I have to give her the stinkeye.

It may or may not look like this.

Feline Friday


It's Friday and I'm fine. Mom is a little bummed because one of the beans she has worked with for the last six years has left the company for another gig. Mom liked this person a lot and they worked well together. I may have to provide a little comfort.

I won't do anything drastic like sit on her lap, but I'll sit next to her when she watches TV or something.

Almost Wordless Wednesday

Hi. I'm good. How are you today?

Tuxie Tuesday

We woke up to snow yesterday morning.





There wasn't a lot of it. Maybe three or four inches, but Mom said it was like everybody forgot how to drive in it. There were lots of crashes and fender benders. Mom heard on the radio that one of the state's big snowplows (imagine a gigantic dump truck with a snowplow on the front) was seen on its side by the road. I'm sure glad I wasn't around when that happened. It stopped snowing about mid-morning, and Mom said the sun was out by mid-afternoon.


When Mom got home from her day-hunting gig, she took this picture so you could see how fast the snow melted.

Yup, that's weather in New Hampster for you.


Happy Anniversary Mim-may and Pip-pay. What is it, twenty-nine years? Concatulations!

Spring is Here

It's Spring, and the weather guys say we are gonna get some snow.  How much depends on which weather guy you listen to. Some say 6 to 10 inches, some say less than three.  I don't really care, because it will melt really fast anyway, and won't last long.

I'll be here watching.

Thursday Thing

I haven't seen any more creatures running around inside the house, but that doesn't mean I'm not going to keep watch.

Happy St Patrick's Day for all you Irish out there.

Magnificent Millie Monday

So it was really warm here.

So Mom opened the door to the front porch so I could sit out there for a little bit. Nothing surprising there.

When it got cold, Mom closed the door and I came in the house.

But so did a little visitor.

Mom woke up in the middle of the night because she heard me running around and making funny noises. So she got up and turned on the light. What she saw surprised her. I had found the little visitor and deaded it.

Mom told me she was proud of me, but I'm not so sure she was. She grabbed an empty box and a long piece of cardboard and put the deaded little visitor in the box and then opened the door and threw it outside. She kept saying "Eew. Eew. Eew."

She said she wasn't sure I had it in me, since I have been an indoor kitty for most of my life.

Yeah right.

Like the great Jackson Galaxy says, "Cats are predators, and they're damn good at it."

No Place Like Home

Seriously, there is no place like home.  I enjoyed my extended stay in Passa Dena with Mrs P and her students, but I'm glad to be home. The weather is getting warmer here, and Mom says it won't be long before we can have the door to the front porch open.

Yippee.

Now if you'll excuse me, I have a LOT of napping to catch up on.

Fun Friday

I've done Art here in Passa Dena with the kids.

I've had lunch with them. (Although I am much more interested in stinky goodness than I am in tofu and brown rice with vegies.)

Music is fun too. I learned to play the recorder.

Of course, Miss Hello Kitty and I became fast friends.

It's been a lot of fun here with Mrs P's students in Passa Dena California. Mrs P has been telling her students about me for almost ten years, and it has been a real pleasure to finally visit in purr-son and meet them all.  I've had a fabulous time, but I'm on my way home now.  I may have a few more photos to show, but it's time for me to be at home in New Hampster.

Treats!

The kids here in Passa Dena have been taking very good care of me. Here I am enjoying some Rice Krispies treats.

It's been a lot of fun here in Passa Dena with Mrs P and her students. I've been learning a lot, and I'm pretty sure I've helped teach the kids things about cats, but I'm kinda missing Mom and I'll be heading home soon.

Mom says it was warmer in New Hampster yesterday than it was in the City of Angels. Wow!  Sounds like I'll be able to go out on the front porch soon.

Climbing Trees

Lookit this pretty tree with pretty pink flowers!  I just had to climb it.

You know my favorite color is pink. This might be one of my most favorite-est places I have ever visited.

Bird Watching

We are bird watching. You would think I could teach the kids a lot about bird watching, me being a cat and all... I know about being still and watching very closely.

But no. These kids watched this eagle in Minnesota on an eagle cam. They can watch from the classroom on a computer. Kinda takes the fun all out of it.

Then I learned how big an eagle really is.  Their wingspan is bigger than Mom is tall.  So I guess I will watch the eagles with the kids on the computer after all.

I am furry impressed with all the things kids learn in school. This has been a very fun week.

Millie Studies Space

The kids are learning about Space, so I am too.

.
I've been making some great friends here in Passa Dena. I've learned a lot and have had a lot of fun.

The warm sunny weather has been pretty nice too.

Celebrating Dr Seuss

Yesterday was Dr Seuss Day.  Look who I got to meet in Passa Dena?


Lookit us. Two tuxie cats.

Seriously. You can not make this stuff up.

Reading with the Kids

The kids are reading Charlotte's Web. I know how important reading is. Mom and I read a lot.

I have discovered that I love spending time with the kids. They are treating me very well and we are having a lot of fun together.

Thank you kids! Thank you Mrs P.

Millie at the Playground

I have been playing with the kids in the playground...

The slide is fun if you don't go too fast.

I'm glad I had help on the monkey bars.

Here I am playing handball with the girls. I am good at it. (It must be my "cat-like" reflexes.)

I am having a lot of fun here in Passa Dena with Mrs P's students. It was a great idea to stay behind in California for an extra week.

See you tomorrow!
