Getting close to quarterly tax time again! Keepers it rolls back around quickly. The kitties were trying to help but most of them became terribly bored. Still, they kept me company.
Welcome to my life! :lol:
Quarterly! :eek2: Yearly comes around too quickly! :sigh:

Speaking of kitties helping, Ruby also likes to "help" when I'm paying bills, and doing other paperwork. Unless she's asleep, I can always expect her to stop by to give "advice". :catman:

Yes, and whenever I'm working around the house, Miss Eleanor just has to help, usually by 'supervising' but when I was repainting the stairway baseboards Saturday, she decided to get a little more involved in the proceedings. Wet paint and cat hair do not mix very well, unless you are going for a textured finish.

N NY cat man Tarifa is into everything, following me around, bellowing when I'm not attending to her wishes. Now, she follows my roomies around too, wanting to help in the kitchen and with the international business calls in the middle of the night. She is VERY helpful. Baby Su is very interested in knowing what's going on, but doesn't participate except here in the office with the IT. Elvis runs and hides.
Jcatbird Jcatbird , the kids in question had left home. That's what she was waiting for -- for them to be old enough to leave. I think there was domestic violence involved between her and her husband, though I'm not sure. That's what was hinted at, anyway.
What a beautiful furmily you have! Your home must be a place of much happiness. I used to wonder if, when my furmily was a lot larger, it could levitate if everyone purred at the same time. :cloud9:

I miss those days when baby Demi used to try to "help" me with everything. He would smack the pen out of my hand as I was writing, or pounce on my fingers as I was typing. :lol:
That reminded me of something that happened yesterday. I was sitting here at the computer, with a candy cane sticking out of my mouth. I guess the cellophane around it intrigued Ruby, because next thing I knew, she'd swatted the candy cane out of my mouth! Not sure if she ended up with sticky peppermint paws or not. :catman:

Oh, M maggiedemi , do tell Demi he's not too old to do those mischievous, annoy mommy things. :catlove:

rubysmama rubysmama Tax time is always a pain! In just a couple of months it will be time to start the yearly stuff! Moan! Tons of paperwork then. It used to be worse though. Keeping track of inventory for the business always kicked off the new year.
I hope Ruby knocked the candy away carefully! Sometimes kitty advice is very good. It sounds like Ruby either wanted to share the candy or stop you from eating sugar! Lol BUT knowing cats, I am guessing she wanted to own the candy. Kitties!

M maggiedemi I actually thought of you when I was thinking of music and kitties! :) Maybe next the kitties will dance! Happy tail dance? I wonder if Demi would chase your fingers if they had meat baby food on them?:lol:

N NY cat man Tell Miss Eleanor we love her color. Don’t change it! Lol Banjo helped me paint the cat room a few months before I had to do those repairs. I came back to little paw prints across the floor but wasn’t sure which cat had signed their work. I had to check a lot of paws before I found the evidence. I should have known though because Banjo was giving me her innocent and ,”it wasn’t me” look. The hardest thing was the pursuit to get her in order to remove the paint. It was a great came of ,” you can’t catch me!” :lol:

I looked up "suar" after reading your post, not realizing you were referring to sugar.😑 There is a "suar". It's a rare wood. Not recommended for eating, unless you're a termite, possibly. 😏

tarasgirl06 tarasgirl06 Tarifa is bellowing? Lol She is letting everyone know how much help she can offer! Baby Su is second in command. Poor Elvis. He’ll adjust though. Hopefully he’ll realize that roomies can give treats too!

Very glad to hear that those kids got out. I’ve seen similar situations and it’s so sad!

Thank you about our happy home. You know, if a large Clowder purred and levitated us, it might be hard to get down. Kind of like ripples after you toss a pebble into water it could last for ever. You know.... in purrpetuity! :lol::cloud9:

Yeah, I call Tar a loud-meowing cat, because she is. You'd be surprised -- or maybe not? -- that such volume of sound could issue forth from such a small cat. Sometimes she'll stand in the office and bellow because she's miffed that I'm not in there already, providing a lap. Or she'll stand in front of the bedroom door when I'm feeding Baby Su and trying to allow her some time before the onslaught of the Big Blue Food Inhaler a/k/a Elvis, and bellow for me to open HER door.:crackup:
Yes, in PURRpetuity indeed! :flail:

You know, Jcatbird Jcatbird , this whole "Banjo and Froggie (and Rubbit) thing has reminded me of an excellent piece of advice my Gran gave me..."We all want to marry a handsome prince, but most of us will deal quite happily with a kind-hearted frog who kisses well."
You ever find one, be sure and let us know, yes, Mamanyt1953 Mamanyt1953 ? It would be refreshing to hear about. 🙄

tarasgirl06 tarasgirl06 Maybe I should leave my boo boos intact! :flail: I’ve made some funny ones over the time I’ve been here!:eek: Glad you found the positive side.

We’ll keep watching the frogs to see. So far the evidence seems to indicate they do turn into something wonderful. After Banjo repeatedly kissed Froggie I found this!

I am giving Mackie some time being held and he is really helping me to post! More typos coming soon to a post near you! :lol: I can barely see the screen!

He wants me to put Nora the piano playing cat on the phone! I guess I’ll return AFTER he watches Nora.

Nora is wonderful -- I think we'd all agree here at TCS! HAGN all!

Okay. We had a little adventure here after Mack watched Nora. BTW Mack is waiting by the door and hoping I will come back to leave Nora on all night. Lol He has such a crush on her!

I took the talking hamster toy into see Goldie, Blue and Mountain Bear.


Mountain approached!

Goldie and Blue.

Be careful son!

It’s still again.

Let’s smell it and see what it is.

It sounds like a rat!

I don’t like rats!

You brought that around my family?

Everybody leave!
547B5CC3-D7DB-45BE-935A-C5AE1CB57052.jpeg

Stay under here!
A213637E-F095-477F-9D8B-59C30ADCF09E.jpeg

Sorry kitties! I had to make like the “Rat” was no longer a threat! I had to lay it over and pretend to kill it.

Mountain was the first to check to see if it would move again.

Is it dead?

We need to check it Goldie!
ACDCD5A4-377B-4729-AC41-A2D86D82DFF6.jpeg

We’ll go together Blue!

Look Goldie, it’s safe.

I think Mom killed it Goldie.
C43B5EE5-75A6-402F-9F66-E12C5DF96CA9.jpeg

It’s not moving.
C9011C36-A401-42A4-9CC5-C83FCE955C9E.jpeg

I’ll bite it to make sure.
54831B52-47B8-4FC0-BC90-C3EE9BC962AC.jpeg

We’re coming back to bed but no more Rats!
E48314A0-EC1B-48F2-9159-773D71617859.jpeg

You killed it but If you’re going to eat it, we don’t want to watch!

Oh boy! I got the stink eye on this one! Cute fuzzy hamster? No! I’ll be taking treats in tonight! I had to carry the Hamster out so they saw it leave. The Hamster is now banned from their presence! Back to spring toys! :lol:

Have a great night everyone! I’m going to make amends to the kitties! :doh:
