Hi,
I made my first kill today. I had been hanging out in the hall closet most of morning, both me and Chance were. Well a couple of hours ago Russ asked Connie what I was playing with in the living room. She went in and looked and found this tiny tiny animal - a mole or shrew is what she said. I didn't want her to have it so I laid down on top of it and looked at her. She got a paper towel and when I turned my body towards Shadow who they said was waiting for a hot meal, she grabbed it. I didn't notice it was gone until it was too late. I was kind of upset with her, but she seemed to think it was an OK thing to do. I am now wondering if there might be more in that closet so I will pay more attention. I might have to keep my eye on Chance and if she heads that direction, I will just follow her and see what I can find. It is very cold out today and Shadow has only gone out once and she wasn't out very long. We had a deer laying in our yard last night and we all watched it until it was so dark out that we couldn't see it any more. Russ said he was pretty sure it was still there about 2 this morning when he looked. Connie walked over to where it was laying and said the snow was melted almost down to the grass so it might have been there for a long time. I hope it was OK. Russ said our crippled mama deer was at the feeder early this morning too. I don't like them and I glare at them every chance I can. Well, better go, Chance just headed to the closet and I don't want to miss anything. Tigger.

Christmas is over at this house
Hi all,
Well, I found out that when Connie gets upset, she can be violent! She hit me twice on the nose yesterday while I was trying to help her pick up some thin, sharp, shiny things from the carpet. I tried to tell her I was just trying to help, but she was soooo mad, she just didn't listen. Let me start by saying, she is sick and kind of drags herself in to the house - well, yesterday she did. Today is better! Anyway, she came into the living room and laying on the floor next to Shadow was the Christmas Tree. Surrounding the tree were all these pieces of shiny things - sharp little buggers too. She asked Shadow if she did it and Shadow just laid there looking at her - I guess that means the cats did it. I haven't quite figured out how that all works, but anyway, she knew Shadow hadn't done it. Along with losing some of those shiny balls from the tree - the tree stand broke so it can't be used again. I heard her tell Russ it was a cheap tree anyway, so I don't know why she was so upset. She said it was one less thing to pack - I don't know where she is going but she was planning to take the tree with her and now she is not. I sure hope I get to go! I would be sad if she left me behind. Guess this means we will get a new tree next year. Sure hope she doesn't want to get a new kitten or cat too! I better go - Happy New Year. Tigger

My Christmas Present
Hi all,
You won't believe what my Christmas Present was! I was totally shocked. First I got dropped off at the vet on Thursday afternoon and they were very nice to me and they all thought I was so handsome! Friday was my present and it was something I don't even want to talk about - how embarrassing for a little guy or maybe a big guy too. Remington - don't let Beth and Mike talk you into this one. I came home missing some body parts and some claws (which Connie says is OK since I was scratching the furniture and walls). She said they don't do that part to dogs, so R you are safe in that respect. I can't believe it. The only good part, so far, is that I am on some kind of liquid today and tomorrow and it helps me to sleep. So I have been sacked out on the foot of Connie's bed on a nice soft blanket. I can't have my usual litter, I have to use shredded newspaper - more embarrassment - for FIVE days. I just want my regular litter back. I guess this is all for now.

My present is next week
Connie keeps telling me that I am going to get my Christmas present next week. She is so excited about it and every time I scratch on her chair, she says she can hardly wait!! It must be a great present. I am thinking maybe it has something to do with the chair! Last night when she went to bed, her fingers caught a little tear in her brand new sheets and she wasn't very happy with me. Maybe the Christmas present has to do with sheets.
Little Shelby was out today and everything was fine until about 2 PM and the she got this funny look on her face and threw up. Both Connie and Kellie thought they were going to be sick, too. Connie rushed her to the bathtub and took off her clothes. Kellie wrapped a towel around her and held her for a while. I tried to clean up the mess, but it was just too much for a little kitty. Connie used that big machine with water in it that looks like a vacuum cleaner.
Shelby took a long nap and seemed to be just fine after that. She had been just fine before that, too. Maybe she ate too much.
Well, I got caught trying to sneak out of the house and Connie hurt her back and ankle trying to get me back in - that was a week or more ago. She didn't get hurt too bad so I think I was pretty lucky. She might have sent me back to the woodpile.
I guess this is all for now. I will write more after I get my present.

Saturday night company
Hi
We had company on Saturday and Saturday night. Little stinky butt was here and she wasn't too bad. Connie thought I wasn't too bad either. Shelby and I kind of bonded and we talked and she rocked me in the glider. She tried to get me to play kick ball with her like she does with Connie, but I couldn't kick it back. She wasn't real happy about that but she continued to play with me.
I was a good kitten. I didn't scratch her nor try to nip at her. Connie told her that I am a baby and that was when she started to rock me in the glider. I slept out in the porch just in case I wandered into the bedroom where she was. I thought about it so maybe that is why I was banished to the porch. That was ok. I had my food, litter box and Shadow to keep me company so I was warm.
All for now.

This and That
Hi
It is me Tigger again. Connie has started calling me Munchkin because my front legs are so short that I look like a little munchkin. That is ok - I like the name. I think it means she loves me.
Remington, I liked your story about the cold box. I have one in my kitchen too. I don't get anything out of it (on purpose anyway). I did try to get something out of another piece of equipment in the kitchen but it was too warm. I wanted to put my paws on this big flat thing that came down from it, but it was very warm. So, I just went on my way. I am not sure what came out of it - something sweet is all I know because I licked Connie's plate clean when she put it on the coffee table and headed to the bathroom.
I haven't been doing too much lately. I try to keep an eye on the goings and comings around here but there hasn't been too much of either. Connie had a cold and stayed home most of the weekend so we just cuddled either in bed or in what she calls the recliner. She has a slanket and I can cuddle up in that with her. It looks like a backwards bathrobe but is heavy like a blanket. It is also too warm for me. I like it cooler - must be because I was originally an outside cat and lived in the woodpile. I try to sneak outside when Shadow goes out, but I get caught and sent back. Anyway, it has been pretty cold out, but I heard it will get colder so maybe I don't want to become and outside cat again.
It is pretty nice in here. I have all the food I want and only have to chew on Connie's nose a couple of times in the morning to get her up to fill my bowl. She said I am becoming a good kitty because she can fill the bowl and I don't eat it all at once like I did when I first came in here. Maybe that is because I know Chance has her own bowl and food and won't take mine. I do take hers whenever I get the chance (no pun intended).
Well all for now. It is getting close to bedtime according to Connie. She said she has an early morning meeting tomorrow.
Tigger, the little munchkin!

Hunting Season
Hi all,
I am not going hunting today. I can get in enough trouble just laying around the house!!!!! Connie started rearranging the living room last night and started sneezing - too much dust I thought. But, later on she decided it wasn't dust but a bug she picked up - said she got it at work from one of the guys. I sure am glad I don't work with her - she wasn't very happy. She said she had been very careful to wash her hands good, but maybe the germs flew from one office to another. I saw that on tv one day and it didn't look good. She said she is going to drown herself in orange juice, hot tea, hot tang and water. Hmmmm - none of that sounds like Tigger treats but I might just check them out anyway. We had company a couple of nights this week - Todd's new puppy, Harley. He is kind of cute and just my size if I puff myself up just a little bit. He wanted to play and we did the first night, but the second time he was out Connie leashed him and kept him beside her in the dining room. That was after she used this big machine that looked like the vacuum only has water in it. She said she was glad she had it right there handy. He ate a red color crayon and Connie said she found it on her floor but didn't want it back. She and Chloe didn't think it was very funny. I came around to play with him, but she wouldn't let him loose. Oh well. Maybe next time. I am going to stay away from her as much as possible this weekend as I don't want to get sick. All for now.
