Saturday Sims

When my slave isn't reading my blog, she likes to play the Sims 2. This is her favourite PC game of all time and she really enjoys creating families and playing out their lives. Needless to say, she has her own character in the game and has created a sim version of me:



In the game, as in real life, I am very badly behaved, constantly scratching the furniture and giving humans the bitey! One could argue that this is art imitating life but it is far too early in the day for such musings.

It is simply gorgeous weather here at the moment and Mao and I have the reign of the garden. Despite this, Mao is busy playing with the slave's hairband in the living room and I am , well, in here - blogging!

I heard mention of a barbecue today - I assume this means I will be fed even more steak. *sigh*. It is a hard life.

Fashion Friday



Can you believe how STUPID my human slave's are???? Firstly, they buy me a shirt which is PINK when it is obvious I am much more of a royal purple cat. Then, upon adorning me in said top, they take pictures which clearly show the clothing is at least TWO SIZES TOO SMALL!!!


It is supposed to fasten around the waist area but my girth is simply too wide.


Whilst I am proud of my width, I am annoyed at the human's for getting me the wrong sized clothing. Their stupidity never ceases to amaze me!

Thursday Thank you!

Today, Mao and I received a lovely surprise in the post. All the way from California, a lovely Easter Card from the one and only Skeezix! Mao and I would like to say a sincere Thank You to Skeezix for the card. Mao and the humans love the picture of him. I , on the other hand, can hardly bare to look because Skeezix reminds me of a pure white Baby Mao. (sorry Skeezix, no offence).


I'd also like to take this opportunity to introduce a friend of mine from the Isle of Wight! Her name is Jinx, she is a beautiful royal Siamese princess although she is much friendlier than me. I am a self confessed brat. I think Jinx is much more graceful.


Here is a picture of jinx in her cute pink top:
Be sure to stop by Jinx's blog at :http://dinkerdoothatsillymoo.blogspot.com/ to welcome her.

Anyway, enough of me being nice. That was exhausting! I have to go and investigate the kitchen, I believe there is cuisine being served.

Ta ta for now

A Meme about balance

Apparently nobody wanted to tag me *sniff* Not one to be ignored (as if), I have decided to tag myself. Listen very carefully to my answers, they are all extremely interesting.

To participate, write a post about balance in life and link back to this post. Answer any or all of the following questions or simply share your thoughts about life balance.

How do you achieve balance in your life?

To define balance in my life, I have to talk about the balance of power. This is, sadly, an ongoing battle between myself and the humans and myself and Mao. For example, they are each aware that their purpose in life is to serve me. Mao is here for my entertainment, the slaves for the menial tasks such as cooking for me or cleaning my litter tray. I remain in control at all times and the balance of power remains in my favour. It sounds simple and it usually is. Unfortunaetly, the littlest thing can upset this equilibrium. For example, just the other day the human's forgot to cook my Sunday roast. They mistakenly assumed that I would be happy with cat food from the tin. Naturally, I had to act on this and promptly insisted that they either share their food with me or cook something especially for me to eat. They chose the former and the balance of power resumed. Occasionally, Mao will believe that he is the boss and will ' put the bitey' on me. My response? To put the bitey on him so much that he sulks off into the corner. Once again, the balance is resumed.

What is your biggest challenge in balancing your life?

It is an ongoing challenge to maintain the balance in my life. I am in a constant state of near exhaustion because Mao and the human's are too stupid to realise I am the boss all of the time and not just when it suits them.

What are your priorities?

Me. Food. My blog. Keeping Mao and the human's in line. Exhausting!

What advice can you share to help all of us balance our own lives?

Keep your slave's in line. If you don't have a brother or sister, don't get one. If you are already inflicted with a younger sibling, ensure the balance of power stays in your favour. As long as you remain the boss, the balance should maintain itself.



I tag any other cat who wishes to respond to this.

Meezer Monday




Here is a picture of Mao and I playing with MY new toy. It is a Freddy Krueger stylee glove with mice attached to it. Mao is a bit scared of it but he is a total wimp. I love it. I also deserve it after yesterday's indiscretions.

Wishing Everyone a Regal and Happy Easter

Greetings, subjects, and may I wish everyone a very happy Easter.


I awoke this morning to find this:




I was pleased. A yoghurt and catnip Easter Egg just for me. Unfortunately, Mao could smell the catnip:




I watched as he went a bit mental over the egg. Apparently some cats are addicted to the nip and this egg appeared to send Mao, well, mental! :



He was rolling around and rubbing his head against it like a mini moron.



The, he had the sheer NERVE to give me evils when I gently reminded him that the egg was for eating, not rubbing against:




I am every so slightly annoyed with Mao at the moment. I have banished him to the wardrobe to consider the consequences of his actions.

Anyway, Happy Easter everyone. I am off to sulk now because my Easter has been ruined already and it's only lunch time.

Oh, and apparently my human slave is so stupid she thinks the playboy bunny is the Easter Bunny:



Honestly, I despair of this household!
