Waffles Wednesday: Air Waffles

Um, hi everybuddy. Air Waffles here.

One of the things that Glogirly came home from BlogPaws with was some advice. Someone smart told her that if she wears me out, I might not want to touch Katie... I mean the Boss, quite so much. I don't know why she'd want to keep us from playing Tap-Tap. She just says I'm too young to stand under– I mean understand.

So we've been working out.

A lot.

I'm all out of kitty breath. The Boss says I was panting like a DOG. You should have SEEN the look on her face. Oh that's right, you can! On my cool Vine video!

Vine, not to be confused with the Vine, is a new 6-second video app for the iPhone. It's pretty cool...you just touch the screen to record little snippets of video and it turns it into a six-second stop-motion movie. Glogirly says she can't believe how much I can jump in six seconds. Katie was not impressed.

I'm Living With A Maru-Wannabe

Hi everyone, Katie here.

I have only three things to say today.

1. I do not like boxes, bags, closed doors or Coke Zero.
2. I do not much care for orange cats named Waffles.
3. I'm convinced I'm living with a Maru-Wannabe.

Serenity now.
Ok, that was 4.

Waffles Wednesday: Paddy Cake

Happy Memorial Day From Katie & Waffles

Um, hi everybuddy. Waffles Too here.

The Boss put me in charge Me Oriole Day.  I had no idea there was a whole holiday devoted to an orange bird. Or that there would be a cool hat for it. But I'M orange, so it makes sense that I get to be in charge of me oriole.

KATIE:  *heavy sigh* Waffles, Waffles, Waffles.

WAFFLES TOO: Um. Boss, Boss, Boss?

KATIE: Waffles, today is MEMORIAL Day. It's a very special day devoted to remembering and honoring our loved ones. Especially those that have served in the military. Did you not READ yesterday's SPECIAL BLOG POST???

WAFFLES TOO: Um. I looked at the pictures. Does that count?

KATIE: Waffles, take off your bird hat and wish everyone a Happy Memorial Day.

WAFFLES TOO:  Um, ok. Happy Me Oriole Day everyone. Please join me and the Boss in remembering the people and cats...Um Boss? Dogs too?

KATIE:  Yes, Waffles. Dogs too.

WAFFLES TOO: Help us remember the people, cats, dogs and everyone that we have loved and lost.

KATIE:  And a very special thank you to the service men, women and animals who've dedicated their lives to protecting us.

Infinity And Beyond

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Glogirly came home from BlogPaws with a new desktop picture on her computer. I'd heard rumors from Cathy Keisha that Waffles Too was taking over the world.  So, what with all the attention Waffles has been attracting as of late, it's only appropriate that I maintain a strict 3:1 ratio.  That's three of me for every one of him.

Just call me Katie³.

Waffles' Prescription For People

Um, Deer Glogirly.  Waffles Too here.

While you've been gone, the Cat Sitter has been sharing her People Magazines with me. You really should get a prescription for these.

There's all kinds celebrities and stuff.  Even some dogs. Not many cats though. 

I've been looking for Katie, um I mean the Boss...but so far I can't find her picture. I guess she's not as big of a celebrity as she thinks. Uh oh... don't tell her I said that. She'll give me the ears again.

The Cat Sitter says you're coming home any day now. I hope any day now means really soon.

love,
Waff

It's been 15 days since Glogirly left me.

(GASP!)

Dear Friends,

While Glogirly is galavanting across the country with Gloman, I will continue to post daily updates on my mental state, physical condition and the goings-on here at the Townhouse with Orange Crush and the smelly Cat Sitter. 

Sadly, I won't be able to visit many of my furiends. Please know that I appreciate your visits and comments so very much and read every single one of them. 

What else am I supposed to do while Glogirly's gone?

love,  Katie

Waffles Wednesday From Da Hood

Dear Glogirly,

I fear the Cat Sitter may be corrupting Waffles Too.  She's a bad influence.
In fact, I think she's recruited Waffles into a gang.

He's been wearing specific colors on his head.

He's been making unusual paw gestures. 

He says he wants a tattoo.

I think you should come home NOW.

It's been 6 days since Glogirly left me.

Dear Friends,

While Glogirly is galavanting across the country with Gloman, I will continue to post daily updates on my mental state, physical condition and the goings-on here at the Townhouse with Orange Crush and the smelly Cat Sitter.

Not A Kitten Anymore

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Seriously.

Do you SEE what I have to put up with?  Day in, day out?

Yeah, Waffles – So the whole jazz hand thing? Not so cute anymore. The whole kitten thing? Other than the obnoxious behavior, it's G-O-N-E.

Maybe if you had laid off the food a little...you know, leave a couple crumbs for the starving elder cat...you'd still be all kitteny and cute.

You're just an orange cat with food stuck to his nose.

Belly Up To The Cat Bar

Hi everyone, Katie here.

Last week our friends at Hauspanther (you know, the cool kitty site with all the hip and modern kitty gear) sent us an email about Drinkwell's brand new ceramic Pagoda Fountain. If I had a drink for every time I told Glogirly to get me a fountain...well, I'd have my own private Betty Ford suite.

But FINALLY, thanks to Hauspanther, she found just the right design.

Waffles Too immediately bellied up to the bar. It took him awhile to realize this was a DRINKING fountain, not a WADING fountain.  There were a few HBO words and a bunch of paper towels.

I approached with caution.  Had to watch my back for incoming fire. 

But guess what...We LOVE it!  No more tussles in the bathtub, fighting over the dribbling faucet. We can come and go as we please. And a certain *someone* can't sniff my tail and drink at the same time.  Glogirly says that if I drink more water I'll be healthier and it might even be easier for me to lose that last pound I'm working on.  

Still, I can think of about 7-8 pounds I'd like to shed.
