Rappin' Cats - Catnipperz




We are Catnipperz
And Yes, we're da cat
and don’t get us confused
For that CAT IN THE HAT

We're handsome and cute
And have tons of fur
And when we walk by
All the girl kitties purr

We tweet all day
About life on da' street
and act cute for human momma
So she will give us a treat

What momma don’t know
Is that we're really brats
and planning to control humans
To give us something to laugh at


But we're not alone
My anipals and us have da plan
Paw by Paw
We will dominate man

So to all you animals
Who want to take control
Play “nice” with your humans for now...
Until we can fill our OWN food bowl

DUCKIE RAP

Yo, All you twitterpaw Pets
Duckies are in the house
Have you got yours yet?
They are better than a toy mouse

Their fuzzy yellow furr
Makes all the cats purr
And their yummy catnip treat
Just can’t be beat!

We love our duckies so
And give them tons of licks
We’ll never let them go
We’ll teach them to do tricks

We roll around the floor
And take our duckies to bed
Our duckies never bore
All that catnip goes to our head

Yo, Yo, My duckie friend
You are the best
We will be pals to the end
Now let’s go take a rest...... NAP OUT

Saturday is Donut Day


I knew it was Saturday cause the alarm clock never went off and momma and daddy didn't move out of bed till much later. I have to admit I do let them sleep a bit longer on Saturdays cause I know that if I am really good I'll get a special morning treat...Donuts!

On the weekend daddy has to get his coffee and always get donuts too. I have a weakness for those yummy doughy chocolaty frosted glazed donuts.

I waited patiently at the window for daddy to return. I started to ignore the birdies who were chirping away trying to get my attention. I was too busy thinking about my donut. I started to lick my whiskers in anticipation. Sometimes my mind can get rather evil cause I found myself having thoughts of waiting by the door for daddy and when he walks in - I'll walk out in front of him and make him trip over me...that way I could have more than one donut - I would get them all. I realized that wasn't a good plan cause daddy might get hurt or worse, the donuts might not fall out of the box and then daddy would be angry at me and give me none. So, back to the window I went.

Daddy finally came home. The feast of lovely chocolaty frosted donuts began. My tongue couldn't lick them fast enough. I really wish I could have this everyday.

After our breakfast momma said to daddy that they had to get their errands done early. I was all excited cause that meant I got the house alone. My belly was nice and full so I figured a nice peaceful nap would make this the perfect morning.

Before I knew it I was being put in my crate. Now, I know the crate means car ride. I dont freak when I see the crate cause I go for a lot of car rides and I do enjoy them. We didn't go in the truck so I knew we weren't going to the RV - our other house on wheels. The car usually means a long drive to grandhumans house or to the Pet Store. We ended up at the Pet Store. I've been going to the pet store since I was a kitten and they love seeing me grow.

Momma and daddy picked up some food - it wasn't the type I eat so I was wondering who it was for. We then went down the toy aisle. My favorite place to be! So many great toys and colors. I get all excited seeing them. Momma grabbed 2 duckies that were on the shelf which left 1 duckie all by himself. Next minute Daddy picked up the last duckie on the shelf. I was thinking ''Oh no, he is going to kidnap another duck.'' Momma also grabbed some springs, mice and some treats for me to try.

The toy aisle is near the ''adopt a shelter cat'' cages. Momma always go over to them and says hi. I sometimes don't like to look cause I get all nervous. The last time an older cat hissed at me. Momma saw this 2 year old Maine coon mix that needed a home. I felt bad she didn't have a home. Next minute, the humans started talking about getting me a playmate cause I really should have a friend at home. I was thinking what a good idea that would be. They said they were going to talk to the people at the shelter when we go up there to drop off the food and toys. I then realized we were shopping for the cats that didn't have a home like me.

We left the store and drove up to the shelter where momma brought the presents in. I didn't get to go into the shelter cause the dogs that are there always scare me with their barking so I waited in the car with daddy. That's when daddy reached into a bag and pulled out another duckie! He told me that this duckie was for me. I was thinking I already have a duckie...but as soon as he gave it to me I was like, ''Oh duckie I can love you too.''

I guess at that moment I decided to forgive my daddy for kidnapping Doe E. Duck the other day. How could I stay mad at him. He really is a good human. I guess he thought he was just being funny when he did that.

Now, I have another duckie that I need to name. I'll have to have a talk with Doe E. Duck and see what he thinks we should name them. I hope he doesn't get jealous. Maybe I'll give him some name that relates to my daddy. Since he did something rather nice for me.

I'll let you know what I come up with and also take some pics of me with my duckies.

I'm gonna go and take a nap now cause it was such a busy day for me.

Just Another Dog Day?



My plan was foiled! I've been De-Nosed??

I was all ready this morning for ''Take your Dog to Work Day'' I was excited to find out what this special doggy day was all about and to see why humans seem to cater to dogs.

Have you ever noticed that the word CATER - is spelt with CAT? So, shouldn't it be that CAT that gets catered, not the dog? hmmmm.


Daddy started to get ready for work. He put his uniform on, I put on my disguise. He put on his boots, I licked my paws. He kissed momma goodbye, I rubbed up against her legs.

I then proceeded to sit by the door just like a good doggie would.

It was time to leave - daddy just looked at me and he bent down. I thought at that moment he was going to put on my lead to take me but No - he just gave me a quick stroke of the fur and said ''be a good boy for momma'' and off he went!

I tried so hard to bark, I opened my mouth and attempted to form the 'woof' but all that came out was a squeaky 'meow'. I went and grabbed my lead to bring it to him but the door shut and he was gone - I ran to the window trying so hard to catch his attention but nothing. I sat there watching the truck pull away.

I guess I'll have to wait to next year to find out what this ''Take your Dog to Work Day'' is really all about. At least it gives me a year to plan out another disguise. Hopefully that one will be a successful one and I'll be able to report back to you.

I'm going to talk to Doe E. Duck and see if he saw anything exciting when he went to work with daddy the other day.

But first, Nap time.

Dunkin the Puppy?

All week long I've been hearing about ''Take your Dog to Work Day'' - Which made me start thinking about how unfair the world is to cats. It seems the world caters to Dogs. They have Dog Parks, Doggie Bags, Guide Dogs, Doggie Bakeries and the list goes on and on.

What is so great about dogs that the humans must feel that they have to take their dogs to work with them on June 26th?

Just because DOG spells GOD backwards - does not mean that the world should worship our four legged friend.

This Curious Cat ( no lives will be spared while doing this inquiry ) has decided to find out first Paw what this ''take your dog to work day'' is all about and why dogs seem to get all the attention.

I've been working rather hard today to come up with a good disguise so I will blend right in with the other dogs at work. So................. what do you think?

I will be reporting back tomorrow to update you on my discovery.

This is Dunkin_the_Cat ...errrrrr I mean.... Dunkin_the_Puppy signing off for now.

MISSING DUCKIE!




I haven't even had my duckie for long and he is already missing! I was playing with Doe E. Duck - (Oh ya, that's his name because he is ''doughy'' like a donut and I love to lick donuts!) last night or should I say early morning - I really don't know how to tell time all I know is that its dark out and the humans were fast asleep.

Doe E. Duck and I were rolling all over the living room floor. He would try to fly away from me and I would run after him and catch him. Well, I kinda made too much noise because human daddy came into the room and mumble something about the noise and next minute he took duckie away from me! I just figured that he wanted to put duckie to bed so I went to bed too.

In the morning when I woke up - I went looking for duckie to play with. He was no where in sight. I looked all over the livingroom and then searched the bedrooms and no duckie. I couldn't figure out where duckie went and then I remembered that daddy took him! I went up to momma and tried to explain that duckie was missing but I guess she thought I wanted love so she started petting me. I nipped at her hand to get her attention. She then realized something was wrong. We both searched all over the place and still no duckie. I was not a happy kitty at all.

I knew that daddy was behind his disappearance, so I recruited my Twitter anipals to help me find where duckie went. All my friends were really worried about him too and started to get the Pawlice involved and even a Pawyer in case I had to take daddy to court for custody of my duckie. I even got some pawesome doggies to help try to sniff him out....but still no luck. No duckie.

I waited for daddy to come home so I could find out what he did with him. I sat in the window (see my FURRious look on my face) and started to plan out my revenge on daddy. How could he had been so evil to me? I thought my daddy loved me? I thought about attacking him when he came in the door but that wouldn't of worked as daddy could get even and then hold duckie for ransom. I decided to play it cool and wait a bit.



Daddy had to work late, which made me start to worry about Duckie. What if he didn't have duckie or sold duckie to another kitty or even worse a squirrel? Finally, daddy's truck pulled in the yard. I tried to make eye contact with daddy but there in the front window of the truck sat duckie! he was sitting in front of the steering wheel. I was even more mad at daddy cause duckie wasn't wearing a seatbelt. I always have to stay in my cage when i'm in the truck but I quickly didn't care anymore cause I was too excited to see my duckie!



Daddy brought Doe E. Duck to work with him. He thought it would be funny to take my playmate for the day. I did not find that amusing at all. I'm still plotting my revenge on daddy. Maybe I'll get him while he is sleeping. Meowhahahah! I've already rolled all over his bed pillows and covered them with my fur. Nice furry pillows for my daddy, nothing but the best. MOL

The reunion with duckie was wonderful. Tons of licks and cuddles. I am going to give him the best Pawtection so this never happens again.

Thanks again to all my anipals for helping me. You are PAWESOME!!

Father's Day Weekend


*Yawwwn*

It's been awhile since I've blogged - I guess I can be such a lazy kitty at times. It's not that I don't have anything to say, trust me, I could tell you stories about my humans that would make you Meow Out Loud. It's just that I got addicted to Twitter, then Facebook and then even chatting online to others via Yahoo and MSN. I'm back now. I'm control of my page. Ready to paw away at the keys and tell you about my oh so purrfect life.

It was Father's Day weekend. I don't know my real daddy but my human daddy has been in my life since I was 10 weeks old. I got him a really funny card and I even got to lick the envelope...ok, I kinda chewed at the corners of it too. I couldn't help it as it tasted oh so nice.

Anyways, we went away in our RV for the weekend. I didn't know what an RV was at first but its really just a house on wheels and I love it! It's much smaller than my other house but still there are great hiding places for me. Daddy uses his big truck and I get to sit in my cage in the truck between them while they drive. I'm a really good kitty in the truck. I love to watch all the other cars go by. I don't cry or meow at all. I'm too busy being nosey cause I can see everything from my cage.

Momma went shopping this weekend too and found me a duckie! I love my duckie so much. I guess I must be one lucky cat cause she also bought me a curly lamb toy too. I can't wait to show my twitter friends my duck. Now I have to give him a name. I guess I need to pawnder a bit on that.

Ok, gotta go play with my duckie - he keeps given me those sad duckie eyes. Hope everyone had a good Father's Day.

''Bedtime Dunkin''

I can be a really good kitty at times. I know what the word ''bedtime'' means. Every night my human mommy and daddy says ''Bedtime Dunkin'' and I will either jump up on their bed or I will crawl into my kitty bed that sits on their dresser. I usually go to sleep for a bit but I always wake up while they are still sleeping.

I learnt that I can't make too much noise because if I do it will wake them up. Once in awhile though I just can't help myself! Like last night - mommy didn't put all my toys away like she normally does so when I got up around 3ish they were still laying all around the carpet. At first I just walked right past them and went and peeked out the window but it was too dark out for me to see any birds or squirrels.

While climbing off the sofa, there sat Mr. Turtle. His big eyes just staring at me. Everywhere I walked he just keep looking in my direction. I got rather bothered by it so I tried not to let him see me and then I jumped him! I grabbed a hold of his little neck and wrestled him to the floor.



He doesn't make any noise so I was rather quiet playing with him until I rolled into the table and knocked the remote controls off the table. That was it, human mommy was wide awake. I ran under the sofa and I couldn't see her anymore - I figured that I was safe. All of a sudden I was being picked up - I guess I didn't realize that my big bum was sticking out and in her view. Mommy then brought me back to my bed.

I waited again until she fell asleep. It was now around 4:30 and I could see a bit out the window where the sky was getting lighter. I figured it was almost morning so it was ok to begin to play. I started with my morning run, back and forth from living room to kitchen. I got about 12 laps under my paws when all of a sudden human mommy was awake again.

Well, that was it, it was crate time. Mommy picked me up and put me in my crate and locked the door. I then realized it was still bedtime so I decided to go back to sleep.

Mommy woke up not long after that and let me out. I just ignored her and went straight for my food dish because I know that the first thing she does when she wakes up is feed me. (ya, I'm spoiled)

Mommy picked up all my toys including Mr. Turtle and put them in my box.

It was time to wake up daddy - I know when to wake him up cause mommy's alarm clock goes off and it sounds like a rooster! I always go running into the room when I hear it. One of these days I'll catch it.
