Working Cat Week - Day 1


Hi everyone, Katie here.

Well my girl is actually WORKING this week. Seems she's not been satisfied with the salary and benefit package I've been providing for her blog services as of late. Whatever. Seems she's got some whackadoo excuse about needing to keep me in fresh salmon and her in fresh haircolor and fancy shampoo. Again, whatever.

Since I'm being left to my own devices this week, I've decided to explore a few career opportunities of my own. Self-sufficiency just might keep the salmon swimming up MY river.

Today's Career Spotlight - A Baker
So what do you think?  Is this the job for me?


  1. Cupcake wrappers make great cat toys.
  2. The humans will never suspect the buttercream is actually salmon flavored.
  3. Ovens give off a lot of heat.
  4. Playing with my apron strings.
  5. My new Cupcake Katie logo is uber-hip and cool.

  1. The hat is ridiculous.
  2. The apron is a bit constricting.
  3. I'm scared of the Kitchenaid mixer.
  4. I prefer my salmon whole, not pureed.
  5. Gotta get up too early.






Just another annoying friendly reminder...

  1. Tell your person to enjoy the work week (and she doesn't need to rush getting back to us either!). I hate it on those weeks when the Woman subs for some practitioner and she's not around as much. Sigh.

  4. The gettin up early part should have been listed twice! HaHaMeow! Happy Monday, Katie! We're off to see the Pettie wizard...

  5. Katie, why be a baker? I think a butcher is a lot better profession for a kitty!

  6. We agree with Sparkle. Katie the Butcher. MOL.

  7. We like Sparkle's idea too. Imagine all the fish you could get being a butcher.
    But we do like your baker logo.

  8. Yeah, baking seems like way too much work. Except, your cupcake logo is so cool!

  9. i dunno.... you look like the cupcake from hell!!!! ACK!

  10. We do not think baker is the right job for you it requires (meowing very quietly) actual work.

    Perhaps taste tester would work out better. What do you think?

  11. ...drooling.... salmon buttercream...

    Love your logo, but we thinks you would not enjoy the extra grooming time needed to remove the flour from your beautiful fur. BLECH!

    ReplyDelete
  12. We agree that the logo is great but you lost us on "gotta get up too early" Also, being afraid of the mixer could be problematic!

  13. We see no problem with getting up early, since we get our human out of bed at or before 4AM every day, year-round. But the apron and hat would have to go.

    ReplyDelete
  14. Con: You can't always taste all of the ingredients, because it makes some people mad.

  15. IDK, you kinda rock that hat, darling... I think a chef would be a great choice.. especially a pastry chef... all that milk and cream.... yummy!

  17. Umm, baking sounds like a lot of work. I would hold out for Sushi Chef.

  20. Cupcake Katie IS a catchy title...
    Catnip Cupcakes!

    ReplyDelete
  21. Katie, you should make CupCATS! Fur-flavored delicacies for the discriminating feline. Just IMAGINE what you could use for sprinkles...

    ReplyDelete
  22. Whaaa? She can't be working! I won't let her! Nah, don't think you're a baker. Specially not a pupcake baker! Try a nurse since Home Health Care seems to be the only industry that's hiring.

  23. I think maybe the cons outweigh the pros on this one, Katie. And there's one other con you didn't mention... when my peep #1 makes bread, she gets flour EVERYWHERE. You might think I'm exaggerating when I say 'everywhere' but I'm not. She looks as silly as can be with it in her hair, on her clothes, on her face... like I said, everywhere. We cats never like to look silly, you know. We're all far too elegant for such nonsense. purrs

  25. So what you are saying is on balance cupcakes are not for you! I would agree .... on balance ;)

  27. I think you should do the napping and let the glogirly provide the salmon!

  28. Dear Katie,
    For me, the hassle with baking is turning the knobs! That is hard to do with no thumbs. And those oven mitts, they is very awkward! But yous DOES look cool in the hat!

  29. I think if I could dip my paw into the batter, it would be worth it to get up early.

    ReplyDelete
  30. Nothing wrong with being a baker, Katie! Oh, wait, what? We have to get up early? Never mind, then.

    We think your hat looks great. Of course, we may be biased. Our Moosey dressed up as "Chef Moosey" last Halloween. :)

  31. Congrats on the job! More catnip for Katie and how about baking catnip cupcakes?

    ReplyDelete
  32. Another pro is that you get to lick the bowl Katie.

    ReplyDelete
  33. Even though the oven is toasty we think the mixer trumps oven. Stay outta the kitchen!
