My Christmas holidays by Lizzy, part one

hello, I see you have the camera out again Chris ,

Here I am (10am) taking a break from my extensive photo shoot,
I may need to remain this way for several hours

Warming up to christmas

This is Tana , yes ok

a dog , and yes I do get locked

in the bedroom when she visits

(otherwise I would tear her limb from limb,

just kidding but I need to maintain that illusion)

What real cats do with the Christmas decorations

Lizzy the infrequent blogger here.

Chris made me write this because he says compared to Bob I am a very poor blogger but I say what more important , sleeping or blogging ? No contest !

Anyway the other day I brought Chris a duck from next door so he could be entertained over breakfast. I’m not sure why I didn’t eat it but it just seemed so funny waddling around the house leaving little duck poo piles on the carpet.
Maybe I couldn’t eat it because I was laughing so much. Anyway Chris and Reena after some difficulty trapped the duck in a big cardboard box and took it next door to be reunited with its family.

That night I returned with a bunny, I haven’t found one for ages because me and Bob ate them all . However before I could dispatch it and later puke its innards all over the bathroom floor Chris grabbed it and took it outside and yelled “run bunny run” , yeah right like I won’t be able to find it later ….

Me relaxing

Here I am relaxing with Reena in front of the fire on Friday night ..I love weekends I can demand a lot more attention …………

Lizzy on Sunday

Hi Lizzy here

Ok I realise this is a bit irreverent but I’ve discovered that Bobs cross makes a good chin scratching post, I can always say I’m visiting the grave .

Chris , Reena and I would like to thank Riley and Tiki (great site by the way ) , Riker, The Ashton Family, Trevor , Shelby and Crystal for the comforting notes they left on my blog (Note how I’m calling it MY blog , Chris always says I was a bit shallower than Bob !!! ) .

I’m going to do my best to keep up the tradition of blogging my weirder moments although I should warn you now that extending on from the Ocilympics I’ve developed “Power Sleeping” to an art form .

Bobs last adventure by Lizzy

Hi Lizzy here , I guess Bobs loyal followers will have noticed a rather long gap in my sisters blog posting , this has been due to my needing to learn to type.

Unfortunately Bob ever the one to push the boundaries as an ace stunt cat used up the last of her nine lives five weeks ago more than a kilometre from home in a spectacular attempt to break the bottom of the big valley to home speed record . This trek involved crossing a large paddock with fifty four Alpacas , a paddock with geese and ducks, followed by a road and 200 meters of mushy swamp. I don’t think I need to say which part of this journey proved the most hazardous and ultimately fatal .
After Chris found her we put her in the pet cemetery under our Red Oak tree with the other rather more long lived furry family members , Kate the Dog (15), Doris (16), Ethel (18) , Randell (19) and a couple of fish that didn’t make it when we rebuilt the fish pond.

We were all pretty crushed at the time but we are feeling better now.

New friends arrive

Look, Chris has got us some new friends to play with .

Bob hides out in the boot (of the car)

Hi Bob here .

Last night I was helping Chris tidy the garage and after a while , well at least ten minutes, I was so tired that I just needed a bit of a sleep so I climbed into the boot of the car and just nodded off.

Next thing , I wake up feeling a bit peckish and it’s strangely dark and YIKES I’m trapped in boot prison.

I thought , Chris will rescue me (he always does), so I just settled in for the night !

Next thing I know I’m being bounced all over the place and I can hear the radio blaring with the morning news and I start thinking “where am I” and “is this a new way of going to see the vet ?” .

Well after about 15 minutes of asking nicely I decided to bring out the big artillery and let out a really load howl .

The car came to a halt, the back of the seat was let down and hurrah daylight, but not freedom .

I then have to endure more as we head home , I have a lot to say on the way I can tell you , not least of which is I could REALLY do with having a pee sooooooon (legs crossed) , I also get to put fur all over Chris's nice black work pants (whoops) .

Chris even took me inside and gave me some new food and water, what a guy .

That would be my biggest car ride ever , beat that Lizzy.

I know someone is going away

Ok I know I can fit in Reena's bag , now its just a matter of when to sneak in and will she notice my petite (5.34kg) self ?

Here we are after 8 straight hours transferring our dirt, grit and passengers to the finest of Egyptian cotton linen …..weeeeeeeeeee hharrrrrrrrrrrrrr

We turn three but I get the candles....

Look what Chris made for me !

But can I get it without cooking my ears ?

Found napping in the spare room

Look , we were trying to be discrete, so is sleeping 18 hours a day a crime ...........

Bob and Lizzy relax

Chris says we have been overdoing the sleep lately

(pictures taken over different days ) but hey its the summer holidays
and a cat needs rest for those nocturnal rodent expeditions .
