Remember that big pile of snow that mom and dad had put Penny and me on a few weeks ago!  I thought that snow would be around for a long time!  Here is the pile on Friday.  After the rains this weekend the pile is completely gone!    I am surprised that it all disappeared so fast.  I still think Mom should have put the cat on the pile like she did to me and Penny!  But no, they only put us dogs up there. 

Have a great week folks!

Get a load of this??  Mom and Dad bought the cats this Jungle Gym thing.  Actually they really bought it for Holli.  She thinks she is like an Olympic cat or something!  She jumps on it, climbs all over it!  Then she sleep in the little round part with the sun shinning in on her!  Really, mom and dad, all that Jungle Gym thing for one crazy cat!  Sometimes I really wonder about my mom and dad!  

Thinking about it, maybe one day I may try it myself.  I love to lay on the window seat in the sun so if the darn cat moves, I may try this out!   The sun does shine in that big window really nicely.  I've already laid on the floor when the sun was shining in that window. I may try this jungle gym thing too!

Watch out Holli, if I get my chance, I'm moving in!

Your Friend,

 sleeping....  just love relaxing....

wait.. something doesn't seem right here..  it doesn't feel like Penny leaning on me.  Hello??? OMG.. I hope there isn't a cat near by!  

This is not funny Mommy!  Get us off this pile of snow!   It's high Mommy, and we don't think it's funny you set us halfway up the pile of snow.  It's at least 6 feet tall. It's all the snow that was on the driveway and the guy with the plow put it all on one pile down here.  It's not funny Mommy, get us down from here!   We're gonna jump Mommy!  Get us down!   You'd never put the precious little cats up here would you Mommy?? 

 

Thank you mommy!  Now can you let us in the house please? I'm cold!!   

Thank you Mommy for not making us go up those steps to go in the house!  We appreciated it very much!   We're thinking spring!  How about you?

 

Mom is on her way to western PA to hunt down the groundhog!  I hope she is back in time to watch the puppy bowl with me.   Mom had GMA on and they mentioned something about a kitty bowl at noon on the Hallmark channel!  what the heck??   The puppy bowl will be much better, but I bet Holli will want to watch the kitty bowl.   Maybe she'll be on that.  She could be, she's bad to the bone, so she'd fit in!

Oh well, have a great day!   Heard more snow for tomorrow.  This is not fun!  Mom can we moved to Florida please!   (At least for the winter) 

Enjoy your day!

Love,
Leonard

 

My mom posted this on her facebook account this morning.  Sounds to me like she doesn't like that Phil guy.  What do you think?  

Dear Punxsutawney Phil, Take this as a threat.. You see your shadow, you'll be soup by the afternoon. Think I'm kidding? here is the recipe. ... I have everything but the groundhog! Mark my word!

GROUNDHOG STEW

2 large yellow onions, sliced
1/2 cup chopped celery
1/2 cup chopped carrots

Flour, salt, pepper, cloves

Directions

1. Slice groundhog into large chunks.
2. Soak overnight in a solution of 1 cup water with 1 cup vinegar plus with one sliced onion and a sprinkle of salt.

Six more weeks of winter? Not for you Dear Phil!

" HELP"  SAYS PHIL!!!

Back to normal after the holidays!

The holiday are finally over.  The Christmas Tree survived Holli, which was amazing since she climbed it like very day!  Mom took a picture of her in the tree and mumbled something like, "This may work on a Christmas Card next year". Oh boy, cat in the tree, that'll be a unique card! 

I'm glad the holiday are over, so much coming and going and craziness, I'm glad we can settle back to our normal routine. Of course Holli' normal routine is climbing, like above on to the window sill above the sink in the kitchen.  Bad Cat!

Mom took down the Christmas decorations and put up snowmen everywhere.  Dad said something about having off the upcoming holiday of Martin Luther King Day.  I'm not sure what that is, but I am sure it has something to do with snowmen since mom has them all over the place.  So Happy Martin Luther King Snowman Day!   I'm guessing he's as big and important a snowman as Frosty, but I'm not positive about that!   Either way, enjoy the holiday!   Once this holiday is over I hope we can get back to our normal work load of the day, or normal routine you know what I mean. 

What is our normal work load routine?  Well, of course, napping most of the day.  I'm glad Penny is willing to lay beside Frankie, I don't particularly like to lay next to her, she is a cat you know.  Mom says I have to like the cats, I don't like them but I don't chase them, well not when mom can see me. 

I

  

Jaybo
can go back to her routine. 

Sam can go back to her normal routine. 

Does someone have a lid for the box?  Quick, before Holli starts climbing again!  We could better contain her!  Bad cat!

Don't forget to keep an eye out when you hear the Penn State Berks Commercials!   My favorite kid, Katie is on one!  She's the cute girl standing beside the beautiful pink blossoms.   Also the dorm room they show belongs to Katie.  How cool is that? 

If you haven't seen it, clink on the link and it should take you to view the commercial.  (I hope)   Katie's Penn State Berks Commercial


Enjoy you Holiday and I'll enjoy my nap!  

your friend,
