Emily Comandeers a Blog Post

 Hello felines and their humans, 
I, Emily, have decided to take over today's blog post.  Enough is enough.  I have lots to say.  Besides I think the boys are asleep and what they don't know can't hurt them.  I thought you felines might appreciate this photo of me reclining gracefully on the dining room table.  You heard right--the table.  It is a very enjoyable resting station for me. (tee hee)  Anyway, I will recount some of the highlights of the last little bit of time.  First off, the Winston kitty had to go to the vet for a spa day.  Do you see that floofy tummy?  Well, come a bit closer I don't want to say this too loudly, he gets dreadful tatty in his fur there.  So off to the vet he goes for a wee bit of a shave, claw trimming and an extra nice grooming.  Only you and I know there is now a bit of pink tummy showing in that ocean of fluffy white furs!

I tried to be friendly with the Oscar kitty by giving him a gentle bum sniff but he would have none of it!  He hissed at me and walked away. Other than that, though, we get along O.K.  What I have discovered is that Oscar likes to nap.   Mom says his arthritic leg sometimes bothers him.  However,  here is a bit more gossipy type info for you, he loves to indulge in the nip.  Oscar will get all happy kitty when he gets hold of the kitty nip toy.  Mom says he is sweet.  Mom also said I am NOT at all sweet when I get into the nip.  I, apparently, turn a bit crazy.  She says maybe I need to wait until I am a bit older before I indulge in this feline activity.   **sigh**

 Mom found another cute little free library box on a recent walk to the grocery store.  She always takes a peek inside to see if there is anything interesting.  Usually, she notices these tiny library's on the way back from the grocery store and doesn't want to carry anything else.   Between you and me, though, she has enough books at home.  Books are taking up valuable kitty reclining space in my humble opinion!

 Apparently, one of my nick names is Petal.  This is after a minor character in a children's book she likes.  Mom tried to explain that this was a really nice nickname.  She showed me this photo of a rain covered rose.  She loves raindrops on flowers.....So, I guess Petal is a nice enough nick name.  I can tell you one thing--it's a lot nicer than another nick name she gave me:  Fudge Nose.   Honestly, that is a terrible one!  I'm not sure I can break her of it, either.  She gives the boys some pretty silly names.

 This is me reclining on the hallway bench it's my favorite spot to stretch out and air my tummy furs.   Mom says I have no modesty.  I say if you have a lovely, fluffy tummy you should let the world enjoy it's beauty!  Uh oh--I hear a noise in the living room.  I think the boys are waking up!

Emily!  Did you do a blog post without my permission?   Me and Oscar said "NO" when you last asked.  I am shocked and appalled by your blatant disregard to our house rules.
We are going to sign off for now folks.  We need to hold a feline family conference.  We hope everybody has a quiet, restful weekend!
