I want to thank everyone who left me a message. It's really cool, and I wish I could give everyone one of my patented head bumps. Mom has been trying to thank everyone, but it's taking her time (she's so slow). But, I wanted everyone to know I get all mushy just thinking about it. And you know how hard it is to make a cat feel sentimental, but you guys did it to me!
I'm doing OK. I can still eat, and boy, I'm making up for lost time. Now that I can eat as much as I want, I scarf down kitty treats, tuna, and raw shrimp!
At least Laura The Terrorist Kitten leaves me alone. She doesn't dare chase my tail, because I give her the evil eye and she goes away. She may be a kitten, but she knows who runs this place.
The funny thing is that she constantly bugs Pumpkin. They play and run around, but eventually Pumpkin gets tired and tries to take a nap. But, Laura The Terrorist Kitten won't let him sleep. Pumpkin is one of those wishy washy types who let the kids do anything they want. So, he tries to ignore her when he wants to sleep, but she always winds up trying to nurse him! That cracks me up. He gets so mad when she does that, hisses at her, and goes to another chair. And she follows him to the new chair and it starts all over again. Boundaries. Kids want boundaries. I think we need to call SuperNanny.
Weekend Cat Blogging is being hosted by the fabulous Astrid, Kashim, and Othello at Paulchens. The Friday Ark is at Modulator. They Bad Kitty Cats Festival Of Chaos is at Life From A Cat's Perspective, and The Cat Carnival is at Chey's Place.
Have a Happy Easter!

Glad Upsie is still ruling the roost even with that adorable scamp Laura on the loose.

Onya Upsie! You're obviously still the one in charge around there. Glad to read that you're enjoying lots of nice yummy foods. Good to see that Laura and Pumpkin get along well, but yeah, maybe a few tips from SuperNanny would help him out.
We're thinking of you, and your family, and are purraying and purring like crazy that you guys have the longest possible time left together,
Purrs & gentle headbutts

That Laura has 'mischief' all over her face! How adorable.
It's good to see Upsie still had her trademark personality.

Hooray for treats yes Upsie!!
Now, Laura and Pumpkin look pretty hot together!

Enjoy those treats, Upsie. You deserve every last one of them. Let the kids play their games, while you relax and eat to your heart's content.

We're glad to see that Upsie is enjoying the best of life, like treats and tuna.
And Laura really does look like a "baby Luna." So adorable :)

Head bumps right back at ya, Upsie! I hope the Easter bunny brings you a big basket full of kitty treats.
Posted by: Julie | March 22, 2008 at 12:44 PM
You're looking swell Upsie!
Ha..I know what SuperNanny would say: this behavior is totally unasseptable.
Posted by: baking soda | March 22, 2008 at 01:53 PM
I'm so happy to see that Upsie is having a great time eating all that she wants! You look sweeter than ever...
Laura is sooooooo cute! That picture of Pumpkin and little Luna is terribly adorable!
Cheers,
Rosa

Laura is the cutest little fella!, er, fellette! Glad she and Pumpkin have already become close playmates. : )
Love from VA & Happy Easter.

China Cat & Willow are so glad that Upsie gets to enjoy treats!!!!! And your Laura is certainly a little darling one! OK, I always love the ginger tabby too - such a handsome Pumpkin!
Posted by: sammawow | March 22, 2008 at 08:53 PM
It's been a real treat tonight to see your sweet tummy. I can almost reach out and give you a little soft tickle.
How nice Pumpkin is to baby Laura. Upsie, did you teach him how to do that?? ;-)
Bye, for now, sweet girl...I have to go steal your Mama's asparagus soup recipe.

Upsie,
You've got those tired eyes buddy. Is it from being sick or from eating so much? You look like you just finished thanksgiving dinner. I wish my mom would give me whatever I want. I cry, I beg, I howl..I look sad. Nothin.
I get sick of my brother and sister sometimes. I have to lay down for a bit..usually I go hop on my parents bed just to get away. They are always chasing each other around and then behind the couch. Blah, blah, blah.
Good to see you buddy.

O, good girl,Upsie, you keep slurping that food up. Happy Easter, sweetie.
Love & Purrs, KC

Upsie, you're furtabulous! Can you do me a fabour and call Kamikaze and tell him to shut the hell up? He just ate breakfast but it seems to have not satisfied him, so he's telling me all about it. Meow meow meow!
Laura and Pumpkin are so cute. I love the name Laura, but my big boy thinks her name should be Mini-Kami. I know this because he just told me so. Meow meow meow.
Shaddup already, eh?
Posted by: Jenn | March 22, 2008 at 10:45 PM
Upsie it is good to hear that you are being a good big sister! I must say, you have mastered the art of the "evil eye". :)
Posted by: Katie | March 22, 2008 at 11:32 PM
That's good that Upsie lets everyone know who is really in charge! Pumpkin and Laura look adorable together!
Posted by: sammawow | March 23, 2008 at 10:13 PM
What a bunch! I'm so glad to see Upsie and to hear she's enjoying her new-found gustatory freedom. That photo of Laura really kills me. Heavens -- never mind my other cats, I don't think *I* could handle a kitten again!
Posted by: Lisa | March 24, 2008 at 01:46 PM
Eat up while the eatin' is good, sweet Upsie!
And the pic of Pumpkin and Laura... so freakin' adorable!!
