Cat stories

Mimiw was lounging on the cold tile floor...

Me: Hoy Miming, in heat ka ba?
Mama: Grabe ka naman. Ang bata bata pa niyan para ma-in-heat.
Me: Eh bakit sa malamig na sahig sya humihiga? Baka in heat nga.

LOL!

The convo is me asking my cat whether she's in heat. My mom is shocked that I would think that because Mimiw is but a kitten.

Meet Mimiw

Mimiw (as she is called by most of us in the family) is the latest addition to our home. I got her from a friend's friend who saved her from a nasty life on the streets.

I love that she's very sweet! She lets me carry her around like a baby. And she almost always stays with me whenever I pick her up, i.e., even if she wants to get down, I make her stay and she stays.

My mom's having fun with her. Right now Mimiw is cradled in my mom's left arm and she's being rocked and cooed at. Having a "baby" in the house has started the baby jokes again. My mom often says, "Since I can't get a real grandchild, I guess you'll have to do Mimiw." *eyes roll*

I miss M's cats!

After what seemed like a millionth prodding, he finally sent me pics of The Shiggidy and Wickiedy.

I have their pics saved on my work computer and shared this pic of Shiggidy with my online friends. One of them suggested that it be sent to LOLCATS and she even had a line to go with the pic!

Btw, M said when he went to stand over Shigshig to take his pic, Shiggy assumed this position. After M was done, Shigs went back to hugging the keyboard. ^.^ He sure likes to sleep next to or on top of that particular keyboard.
Doesn't he look so cute? I swear I miss him so much! I'd go back to CO if only to visit the cats.

As for the Wickiedy, here's an old pic of him that I took, um, I forget if this was August or December. He's looking quite pensive here. Wonder what he was thinking about?!
