On the Road with Waffles & Katie: A Vacation Birthday

KATIE:  Waffles! Wake up! It's here!




WAFFLES:  It's here, Boss! It's here!  

KATIE:  That's what I said, Waffles. It's here!

WAFFLES:  Uh... what's here again?



KATIE:  I'll give you a hint.



WAFFLES:  It's my BIRTHDAY? COOL!!! What'd you get me, Boss? A bucket of extra crispy? Original recipe?

KATIE:  No, Waffles. As shocking as this may sound, it's not always about you. It's Gloman's birthday! 



WAFFLES:  We need to get him a present! Do you think he'd like a wand toy? 

KATIE:  Not unless Nikon makes wand toys. 

WAFFLES:  I heard him talking about a 400 millimeter Nikon thing. That must be a REALLY BIG wand toy!

KATIE:  Waffles, I have a better idea. I think you know what Gloman likes the most. 

WAFFLES:  You mean even more than those Nikon millimeter things? 






Dear Gloman,

Happy Birthday from your FAVORITE cat. Thank you for adopting me and bringing me home to your girl. Thank you for our long conversations about life, love and Waffles. Thank you for understanding me, watching out for me and for the extra treats when Waffles isn't looking. 

Most of all, thank you for loving me.
~Katie




Deer Gloman,

Happy Birthday from your EXTRA FAVORITE cat. Thank you for always having room for me on your lap. Thank you for playing fetch with me, giving me my early morning crack, and fixing my broken wand toys.  I'm sorry about all the singing... if you tell me your favorite song, I'll try to learn it for you. 

Thank you for calling me your little buddy.
~Waffles



TODAY'S RECAP
It's Someone's Birthday!
Today's our last day here at our condo castle on the lake and it's a very special day. We're celebrating Gloman's birthday! Waffles has been working on a new song and I'm trying to find enough earplugs for everyone. 

We heard it SNOWED back home yesterday! No snow up here, but the lake was so cold the waves crashing into the shore were filled with big shards of ice. It looked REALLY cool (and really COLD!) and sounded like a cross between a giant martini shaker filled with ice and huge ocean waves crashing in. It was super loud and pretty scary at first. But once we got used to it, we all had fun watching the waves out our windows... while Gloman braved the cold, camera in hand.

Glogirly says it's funny how we've adapted so quickly and are doing so many of the same things we do at home. It's almost like we did a copy/paste on the computer. Copy all of us, our toys, food, daily routines and paste them into this new place. Once we're home, we're going to share some of the tips and tricks we've found helpful to make a feline-friendly vacation like this possible.
