A MUST READ FOR CAT LOVERS
I tried using video conferencing with Alex to get some work done, but he kept screwing around with the novelty settings.
He wasted so much time, I had to cross 3 items off the agenda. So don’t ask me in a few days why kitty litter inventory is dangerously low or what our napping strategy is for Q3/2010. I’m washing my paws of any responsibility.
Tweaked my foot doing some intra-apartment parkour this weekend.
Bad news: We need to reset our home’s “Days without an injury” sign to zero.
Good news: My foot now matches my favorite blanket!
I accidentally read a Lost spoiler, & now even my treehouse & rope swing can’t cheer me up :-(
Developed an I.N.A. this morning. For the uninitiated, that’s an Improvised Napping Area
FYI: I name all my snuggles. This one’s “The Heisman”
Breakfast for dinner!
Technically, string hunting season doesn’t start until after Presidents’ Day, so, let’s keep this on the down-low.
Working on a rainy day duet with Alex.
The working title’s: “No Cardboard; No Tuna; No Service.”
It’ll be the first single on my eponymous new album, “Furio’s Treats: in the Key of Meow.” Drops this June.
Is it hot on these awesome cat duvets, or is it just me?
If you don’t get your cat one of these beds for one of their four birthdays in 2010, you’re sending a pretty powerful message (and you can expect your roommate to “miss the litter box” from time to time).
Think of it this way: In the past, I’ve slept on boxes, laps, blankets, kitchen counters, suitcases, sporting goods and coffee makers, but did I ever officially endorse any of them?
Need coffee to get through this work day.
I gotta stop burning the candle at both ends… of the afternoon.
In honor of MLK, I’m passively resisting any grooming today. Using cuteness, not claws, as my weapon of choice.
My new hobby: gettin’ right up in people’s bid-ness
Rest in Peace, Champion Bruce Levy
Beloved Cat-son, Big brother, and Grand-cat
We are deeply saddened to share the news that our wonderful, loving baby cat Champ had to be put to sleep over the holidays. This happened very suddenly, and it is a long dramatic, traumatic, and upsetting story. Long story short, an illness took over Champ’s mind and body, and he will be forever in our hearts.
Dan and I adopted him from the SPCA in San Francisco over 5 years ago, and he brought an immense amount of joy into our lives. Champ was our first son. We had dreams of Wills and Champ growing up together… At least we have pictures of the two cuddling, and we know that Champ loved Wills very much.
Here is a picture of Champ as a little kitten. We know that his loving soul is shining down on us each day. So long, furry friend.
The tabby that inspired my roommates to adopt me has moved on :-(
True story: before Alex & Lisa found me, I’d been adopted by some other family, who named me “Waddles”, then (2 days later) returned me to the MSPCA after some, er, bad behavior. They kicked me out!
Labeled a “bad kitty”, my future was bleak. Then Lisa & Alex saw how much fun the Levys were having with Champ, wanted a similar roommate, found me, and I got my second chance (and a badass new name).
Hug your roommate and thank the Champion.
The 2009 Furiowards are in. For those of you interested in the 2008 winners, here they are.
A completely impartial committee sifted through all the nominees, and painstakingly chose the best Furio-related content from 2009, in a few age-old categories:
I hope that 2010 gets off to a great start for everyone, and that your holidays were half as restful as mine.
Putting together a bookshelf with my grand-roommate, Izzy.
He’s doing most of the hammering, and cutting. I’ve been supervising, micromanaging, and napping. It’s really satisfying to make something with your own four paws, you know?
