The humans put me on a diet. Not really happy. I thought it was great at first, them feeding wet food daily (how awesome is that). What I didn't know is that they taked the other food away. The delicious crunchy stuff. I miss the crunchy stuff. I only get it in the morning and it is not enough. Never enough crunchy stuff.

I also have to share with other cat. At first I was able to eat all the crunchy food and pretend like she ated it, but now the girl human got wise to it and she feeds the grey creature before she puts out my crunchies.

I feel like the Great Cat has foresaken me. ;_;

Apparently this is a big deal. The girl has been fawning over her, and I don't like it.

On the other hand, the grey fuzzball is sure fun to play with, so praying to the Great Cat to make her disappear is not in my best interest.

Such a dilemma...

Well, they brought back the kitten but she does not smell right. So I hissed at her, and then I decided I should make her smell better. Girl human got upset at me. The kitten is upset at both me and her. She backs away from us. :(

Girl human put her in a room by herself, hoping this helps her relax. I wonder what they did to her. Her tummy is shaved, and she has a bandage on her paw. Girl human says it's from where the catherer went in. What kind of horrible thing did they do to her?

We went on a long car ride one time, me, the kitten and the humans. It made us go back home. I missed my cat tree, and I got it back! ♥ But I've had to share it with the kitten. It's okay though. Gracie the kitten is ok by me when she is not being annoying, and during the day when the humans are not home, she keeps me company. She even shares my liking of feathers and of chasing bugs! I almost like her now.

Anyway, I figured the kitten would be with us for a while, but this morning the girl and boy human trapped her and took her somewhere. I figured it was the cold place with the steel table, and that the boy human would bring her back (when the girl human leaves, she's gone for a long time). Instead the boy brought back the girl, and no kitten. I was confused. Where did they leave the kitten? In the car? At the vet? Somewhere else?

I feel guilty about hiding when the girl human came for me. She claims she was saying goodbye, but I knew she would grab me too, and I don't want to leave the apartment. But now... I feel bad about hiding. What if the kitten needed me? I'm all worried. What if she can't find her way back? What if she ends up somewhere else where another cat bosses her around? I boss her around, but I'm kind of nice about it, I only put a big tough act in front of the humans, but when they are gone, we snuggle and play. What if the next home she goes to isn't as nice as our apartment?

The boy human says that she's coming back, but when? He says I have to be really nice to her when she comes back, she will be really upset about something. I'm not sure I like the sound of that. The kitten is pretty darn scary when she's pissed off.

The humans did some terrible stuff to me. First we drove and drove and drove forever. We moved to a big apartment that has a lot of noise coming from the windows. Then they brought this horrible creature called a kitten to live with us. At least I thought it was horrible at first. I was so upset I forgot to eat, which takes some doing (I ♥ food).

The kitten is grey. She can be kind of a pain in the ass, because she likes to chomp on my tail. But (and this is the good part) she's fun to chase, and the girl human keeps giving me extra treats for being so nice to her. I now let her sleep next to me on the big bed.

The best part of having a kitten? She gets up to play with me in the morning, whereas the humans really don't like getting up early.

However, the drawback is that she keeps wanting to play when I am tired, so sometimes I have to paw at her to tell her to leave me alone.

And sometimes I worry my humans like her more because everything she does is "cute". I'll show them cute! *flops belly up*

Long time no write. So that car ride stuff turned into this trip where we went some place far away. There was a dog there, I was scared of her. There was a cat too, she was not friendly. I stayed in one room a lot, and I could tell my humans were outside the door sometimes, and I was really upset that they didn't stay in to play all the time.

Then we went to some place so far that there was white stuff on the ground, and it was really cold outside, but we went indoors, and it was a big house, and I got to run up and down the stairs of the house all the time. I loved it. The girl said "that's my mommy's house" to me. I liked that place a lot better, because there was no dog there, and I could run around everywhere, and there was this nice lady who looks like the girl but older, and she petted me and played with me when the girl and guy were not there.

Then we came back home. At first I was depressed because there were no stairs, and I even tried to run away to go back to the nice lady's house. But after a while I got used to being home again, and I was so happy I didn't even mind going to the bad place that smells like dogs and medicine, even though I got a shot there.

Then I got this thing called a water fountain as a reward, but it went bust. The girl says she will replace it, whatever that means. I miss the flowy water.

Lately, the humans are talking about this place called "Seattle" and saying they might have to leave me with the girl's mommy for 3 months unless they find something called a "cat friendly apartment". I wonder where Seattle is, and I am puzzled about this leaving me thing. Is it like when the humans go away for a few hours and then come back and play, or is it longer? Because I already don't like it when the girl is gone for hours during the day, and I definitely did not like it when they were gone for entire days even though the guy I really like comes to visit then.

My humans have been doing something strange to me. See, there's this new thing my bed is in... It's mesh and like a little tent. I like to hide in it, and sleep.

The girl has been using it to zip me up inside it and taking me out daily on trips to the mailbox, and out to the garden. I don't cry because I like the fresh air, and being able to see out of the carrier.

But last night she and the boy took me out to the car! I like the car okay when it's not moving, but when it moves I think it's going to the place with the metal tables that I don't like. So I kept asking the girl what was going on, but she kept saying "It's ok. Everything is ok." and petting me.

We were in the car for about five minutes, and we came right back home after that. Well, I didn't want to go back in the carrier, so the boy had to shove me in there. I didn't like that.

But they took me back home, and gave me treats. ♥ The girl said I did okay for a first trip, but I'd have to get more comfortable with the car for Christmas.

What's Christmas? Is it when you go somewhere by car? I hope it's not that place I hate. Because then I don't wanna go.

So the humans went away for a few days and left me home alone. Well, my friend Dave visited me while they were gone to give me food and play with me. But they were gone. They came back yesterday and I have been trying my darndest to make them pay attention to me. The girl was spending so much time on the computer tonight that I decided to take matters into my own hands.

I just walked up to the couch, and sat myself on her laptop. Usually this makes the girl get out the feather so I leave the laptop alone. But this time she just slid the laptop out and let me sit on her lap. I uh... enjoyed it. I'm no lapcat petting whore, but it was nice to let her scritch my chin while I lay supine. We stayed like that for a few minutes, until the guy decided to take pictures of me. Then I got tired of being photographed, and ran off to sleep in my tent.

That's right, I now have my own tent from which I can peer out at the humans without them seeing me.

the girl said the other day that i turned one, and was now a big cat. i wonder what that means. me, i think i still am a little cat. the boy still accidentally tries to squish me during his sleep, and if i were a big cat, i'd be as big as him and harder to squish, no? so i think the girl is full of it: i am a little cat, clearly.

the girl said i am going to the v-e-t for a 1 year checkup soon. she wants to know how much i weigh, or so she said to the boy. why would that matter? i am a good kitty, and watch what i eat. i always have leftover food so if they forget to feed me i can still eat! the girl has been good about my meals, but you never know. i still remember the one time she wasn't coming home for days, and even though someone came to give me food and pet me, i was worried. good thing i saved food even then.

the girl has been sick a lot. she sniffles, but doesn't cry. so i guess when she sniffles without tears, her nose must be leaking. my nose doesn't leak that much when i am sick, but my eyes do get watery. i hope what she has is not catchy to kitties, i don't like colds, because i can't smell yummy foods when i get one.

the girl has been getting up earlier and earlier, and she leaves before the sun is up. this has me puzzled because i got used to her sleeping late, and all of a sudden she wakes up when i'm still trying to get my morning nap? craaazy.

she also comes home tired in the afternoon and while she plays with me a little, she always takes a big nap. today i took a big nap with her, but she slept longer than i do!

the guy also gets up early now, but sometimes he goes back to sleep. then i have the house to myself, like usual.
