The cats survived while Ross and I were away for a few days. Phew! Upon our return, we started a short staycation, which has been nice, too. A big thank you to our cat sitter! Hope you had a nice week and something fun planned for the weekend ahead. Here’s what the cats were chatting about this past week.
Correction
Woodrow: Mama, I heard you called me Dum-Dum yesterday.
Mama: Uh, that was Olive.
Woodrow: Well, you spelled it wrong. Please refer to me as Dumb-Dumb.

Head Bonks
Sophie: Come in closer, Mama. It’s head bonking time!
Mama: Here I come…
Sophie: BONK! I love you, Mama.
Mama: I love you too, Sophie.

Priorities
Harley: Mama, I hear you’re abandoning us tomorrow.
Mama: Well, I wouldn’t put it that way. It’s just a quick getaway.
Harley: Are you leaving the treats out while you’re gone?
Mama: Is that all you care about?
Harley: Maybe.
#priorities
The cats will be in good hands with a cat sitter who is staying at the house while we’re gone. I’m sure they will get lots of treats…so Harley has nothing to worry about.
Missing Mama
Woodrow: Where’s Mama? Who are you?
Cat Sitter: You remember me. I’ve come to visit before. I’m staying here while your parents are gone for a few days.
Woodrow: Oh, okay.
Cat Sitter: Do you want to sit with me? We can snuggle until your Mama comes home.
Woodrow: Okay, I’d like that.

Not Missing Mama
Cat Sitter: Dexter, your mama is on the phone. Want to talk to her?
Dexter: Mama who? I don’t know any mama.
Cat Sitter: So, you’re still mad at her for leaving? Is that why you’re laying in the closet on her clothes?
Dexter: No comment.

The report is that Dexter is actually being good for the cat sitter. Treats make everything better.
Welcome Home
Dexter: Oh, you’re back from your little getaway? What’d ya bring me?
Mama: A big hug and a kiss.
Dexter: I don’t want that. What else did you bring me?

Subtle Sophie
Mama: Whatcha thinking about, Sophie?
Sophie: About how I live such a good life. For example, my mama will bring me anything I want anytime I ask.
Mama: And what are you asking for right now?
Sophie: Oh, nothing. That was more of a subtle reminder for when I do ask.

Friday Bonus Chat
Sophie: Want in my box, Olive?
Olive: That’s MY box.
Sophie: Wanna play with my toy mouse?
Olive: That’s MY toy mouse.
Sophie: It appears you’re wrong on both accounts. I’m in the box, and the mouse chose me. You can either join me or leave.
Olive: I’ll never cross to the dark side. Never!
P.S. Here’s where we were on our little getaway.
Catch up on past chats! And follow our daily conversations on Facebook and Instagram!
we are totally with you Dexter…and we act the same way after your mama ran away for 87 days… or for checking da mailbox…
We were gone from a weekend. Youngest cat Gracie was pure Velcro all week. She even supervises my bathroom trips. *making sure I don’t crawl out the window to leave*
Such a super cute and clever post. Mom is so jealous. She and Dad went to college in Santa Barbara, and she definitely would like to go for a visit. It has been many years XOCK, angel Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, angel Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy and Sawyer.
So you survived while your parents had a little break – just goes to show – kitties are survivors! Yeah! Having a nice cat sitter helps though doesn’t it?!
Hugs, Teddy
Aww, kitties…you had everything that you needed 100% of the time, except your own peeps for only a few short days. Hardly worth thinking about, right?
guyz….N we wanna say thanx for hostin one H of a partee while yur mom N dad WAZ a way…..it rocked !! :) ♥♥
Looks like all you kitties survived and still chatting away. Great pictures of all of you. Have a super duper weekend.
If you can’t keep your humans at home, nothing beats a loving cat sitter who snuggles with you (and who many have a tendency to provide more treats than The Humans do!
Purrs & Head Bonks,
Oliver
Poor Woodrow, you looked so worried in case your mom didn’t come back to you. I am glad the Sitter gave you snuggles.
Dexter, I hope you got treats while the peeps were away. These are fun.
You all definitely need to be compensated for being left behind!
We bet the cats are glad you’re home now.
Glad you had a nice trip and the kitties survived without you :)
Woodrow … owning the dumb dumb like a boss! ;)
We’re glad you had a nice trip! The kitties always have something to chat about, don’t they?
Love these as always! Glad you’re safely back home with your babies :)
I think y’all had a good time with your cat sitter and she knew where the treats were hidden. We still don’t have internet and are working on cellular which sure isn’t easy.
Sophie, you can tell Olive that “possession is 9 paws of the 10 paws law… er… something like that.” Tee hee hee.
We all loved this cute post. It gave mom a chuckle. My brofurs are so like Dexter. I’m more like Sophie. Looks like a nice getaway.
It’s funny how food triumphs all perceived slights
