Why is my Laptop BROKEN ?

Hummmmm.... I don't remember getting those Errors yesterday ?
...

The Party's Over !


Mishka is finally back to her old, (less hormonal) self. I think she is done being in heat. Hopefully this time she will have kittens. Mishka took a break out of her grueling daily schedule today, to lay down and play with a carpet scratcher toy . It's a rough life, but someone has to do it !
...

Another Bowl Bites the Dust !

Apparently, I missed one last night when I fed the kitties.




This is my best "It Wasn't Me Look "
...
Mila is getting such a big, fluffy & poofy Siberian Tail. I can't wait to see how much bigger it is going to get ! She just turned 6 months old on January 5th.

A VERY Tired Boy !


Zateynik *(BJ) is finally taking a break... He has been following Mishka around like her shadow these past few days.
I will spare you all the graphic details ( and photos ). Mishka has been in heat for a few days now. Hopefully, there will be kittens in March !!

When Mila ATTACKS !!

Styrofoam Bowls... Look out !


I feed the kitties soft food every once in a while for a treat, I use styrofoam bowls so I don't have to wash them. Sometimes I forget to throw them away right after the cats are done, and this is where my plan went wrong...

I find bowls all over the house, under the table, in the bedroom, under the chairs, and down the hall, pretty much EVERYWHERE !!

Milakoshka is a little turd ball. She bites and carries these bowls all over. AND makes quite a bit of noise while doing this !! I really hope this is a phase, like maybe she is teething? I hope !







DIE BOWL , DIE !!! Grrrrrrr.

Will I ever learn ???

In acknowledgement of Winston's addiction confession, I here by post my addiction as well...

I.... Zateynik *(BJ) also have a problem with paper products, such as paper towels, toilet paper, bubble envelopes and maxipads!! * = AKA:



I offer the following photos as proof.


The very first Victim... Purple Maxipad.... RIP





Next Victim, Bubble Envelope ......... RIP


I ordered Kitty Treats by Mail. Can you guess which of the two envelopes had the treats in it? Hummmmmm ?







Third Paper Product Victim ( Ooops, I meant Victims )


3 Rolls of TP........ RIP !


I wonder who did this?



Next Victim. Paper Towel Roll....... RIP.



And then there is more of these ... RIP.

Zateynik - (BJ) gets to play in the snow.


While we were in North Dakota, BJ was whining to go outside. So, I took him out and plopped him into a snow bank, thinking he would hate it...


To my surprise, he loved it, promptly got out of the snow bank, then ran down the sidewalk !

He turned by the garage, when I caught up to him he was rolling around on the snowy cement. When I reached down to grab him, he ran away from me again ! Boy did he get in trouble then, he wanted to run across the parking lot.


I guess the joke was on me ! I let him out in the hopes I would discourage him by the snow and cold, but it did not work at ALL!


D' Oh !!




...

Home - There's no place like it


Finally, we are home ! Here are some photos I took in the car on the road. Milakoshka seems very stressed out by the whole ordeal. She slept on my lap the entire trip, 4 1/2 hours each way. Such a good girl !!

T-Shirt I saw in the Gift shop !!

This is a shirt in the gift shop at the hospital in Fargo, ND. I almost fell over laughing when I saw this ! I actually did live in Fargo -- I was born there.

Christmas in North Dakota .....

This is how we spent our Christmas... Driving on the cold, desolate roads of North Dakota. We are visiting a family member who has been in the hospital since Dec 11th. He is missing all our gorgeous weather !!!
We hope he will get out soon. He is doing much better today, so that would be our Best Christmas present ever !

The kitties, all 3 of them, drove 4 1/2 hours with us in the car & no problems to report... All went well. They are happy mom and dad brought them with, instead of leaving then at home to fend for themselves for many days. :(

About back to normal ...


Tonight Milakoshka welcomed Mishka back home by giving her a big ..... strangle hold ! Ha, bet you thought I was gonna say HUG ?

Well, in reality they were just laying there together on the floor. I think Mila was trying to get Mishka to play with her. At least the kitties are back to normal. Everyone was running around today playing like Mishka and I where never even gone ! ( what's up with that ? )

I am glad to be home, and wish my step-father a speedy recovery from his surgery on Thursday !


...

I've been DISSED !

My baby Milakoshka and my boy BJ have Dissed me ! I was away for a family emergency for 5 days, and I am being completely ignored by these two :(
Mishka was lucky enough to come with mommy because she is on a special diet that requires my attention. So BJ and Mila were left at home in my awesome husbands care. But he works during the day, and they have never been alone that much before. Now that I am back, they could care less. :(
My first night home, I had no kitties laying on me in the bed either. I usually have at least two. I hope with lots of love and treats, I will soon be in their good graces again.

Mishka, Mila, & BJ's Sad Mommy.

Mishka finally gets a POST.

Seems like Mila and Zateynik have been getting all the posts lately.

.

Mishka is sleeping because she has a long drive with me tomorrow. We are driving about 4 1/2 hours to be with a family member who is having surgery. Mishka keeps me company in the car. I hope the roads are not too snowy. This might be the last post for a few days.

Awake ( and not dead !! )

Just a quick note to my BLOG readers.... Mila is alive and well. My Husband looked at the previous photos and said she looks dead ( like her neck is broken .) I want all you to know she is very much alive, pouncing and chasing the other cats around as usual. She just likes sleeping in strange places and I happened to catch her with her mouth open. LOL !!
