Mother's Day

Mother's Day? That's this month's topic for the JAC forum blog carnival?
Could you make it any more difficult for me? I don't know where Esme's and my Mom is. Human Mom doesn't even know who she is or was. She does have an image in her head, yes, but I can't tell her if it's true. It's a bit of a sore subject between us, but it's no my fault the lady can't speak cat very well.
She did meet Meffi's and Greebo's mother at the farm. Seriously though, who cares? We are all stuck with her now. Do I sound a bit miffed? That's because I am. She trimmed my claws this morning while all I wanted to do was snuggle with her. I can't help the skin on her knee being so thin obviously. The food she served today was a cruel joke, we didn't touch it (Mom: "It wasn't junk food, but that doesn't make it a cruel joke!! You ate it just fine off Meffi's plate yesterday, you hypocrite!"). Yesterday she kept telling me I was too heavy to lie on her arm while she was typing. Oh, now I'm fat, too? Huh? Is that what you are trying to tell me?

I'm not sure if things will look up until Mother's Day. She might get a gift after all. I'm just not sure yet if it will be love and hugs or an agreement not to provoke Meffi that day or if it will be something on the carpet that makes her eyes roll.


For some human Mother's Day please have a look at these posts. I'll add more links as I receive them.

  1. Ponder, my cat Isis (who looks almost exactly like you) pawed me to tell you that she totally agrees about the junk food.

    1. Of course she does.
      Please tell her to keep her chin up, our time will come. Also let her know that I love her name.

  2. My problem is that my Mom never gives me enough food! Although, those bits of pork roast in last night's dinner were yummy! I can't understand why she didn't give me the whole roast though - she's so stingy.

    1. Humans ... can you imagine mine got up at 8 today? She's getting worse. We were about to starve.
      Glad she at least shared some of the roast with you!

  3. Ponder we are of the same mind. Our mommy-cat is so stingy with the treats. We have to paw at mom to remind her, she is so forgetful.

    Your friends across the pond... Serenity and Pepper.

    1. It is an international problem, it seems. I'm sorry to hear that, Serenity and Pepper (cool names!). Hang in there!
      Today I managed to get her up at 3.33 (that was fun) and again at 6.30. Things are looking up!

  4. If only I could get my Mom up at 3:33. She closes the bedroom door and yells at me if she hears my toenails click on the new hardwood floor. I don't know why she's gone crazy because of the new floor - it's just wood, after all! There's an entire forest of it outside and she never yells if I chew on a stick. What's the difference?

    Oh, and last weekend I had to submit to something called a 'dremel', cuz she said it would reduce toenail clicking. The only good thing about it is the treat I got after.

    Sheesh, will never understand humans. And, I'm still starving over on this side of the pond. At least tonight I got the crust off of her bacon and tomato sandwich, but no bacon!

    Nice to meet you Serenity and Pepper!

    1. Sorry for the late reply, Elle. It's not always easy being the supervisor of this crowd, and it's even worse after Buster the Bosster has been trying to take the place over!
      Hang in there. I'll send you a picture of the floor here to show you what harm you can do in a jiffy.
