Dear reader, this kitty-cat would not be shocked if she were able to pick up the phones of her human beans! Someone always seems to be trying to capture the perfect portrait of yours truly. And then one day, someone finally did it.

Well, my little kibble crunchers, here we are as promised, one day late for my Tuesday blog post. And now, a peek into my photo shoot yesterday for the 2021 Humane Society of London & Middlesex calendar, in which yours truly will represent February – the month of loooooove!

Can I get a Happy Birthday for my Mom? We call her Ma, Moo, Matka & Mamasita. But you can call her Helen. Happy Birthday!!
Hello cats and kittens and welcome back to my mental scratching post! You’re as appreciated here as a piece of tuna dropped on the floor. Thank you for returning to find out what I’m up to.

There are many ways to support Black Lives Matter. My way, right now, is to use my social media feeds and to purchase books written by black authors.

Maybe you saw one of the viral videos about soaking strawberries and maybe it grossed you out, too. If you didn’t, I’ll give you the Max Haines version.

I fought our new way of life for several months after we moved in. Even though I know it’s futile and frankly, unhealthy for my mental wellness, I dug myself into a state of forcing this old house and property to prove itself to me. It’s too big, too unpredictable too…rural.

Greetings my little fur shedders! Welcome back to my fuzzy space on the Interweb. Today, I present some evidence I received of cats and dogs finding ways to overcome their biases and forging friendships and developing affection for one another.

Canadian radio lost one of its last legends this week. Nevin Grant died during surgery. Had it not been for COVID-19, he would have been preparing for a big moment. He was going to receive the Allan Waters Lifetime Achievement Award and induction into the Canadian Broadcasters Hall of Fame. This is the Hall which will also induct Erin Davis when the delayed event finally happens next year.
…Does everybody’s weekly budget look like this?

Hello, again my lovely self-groomers! We three remain housebound where naps are taken and nothing else is taken very seriously, except physical distancing from others. I was made for this. When I don’t have to worry about someone blocking my access to the food bowl, or grabbing my tail, I’m in heaven.

Some time ago, I announced on Twitter that I was giving up the fight over the apostrophe. I felt defeated. Some smart people – and a lot of dumb ones – still don’t know (or don’t care) when it’s supposed to be used. I decided I’d never win the fight so I waved a white hanky in surrender.

Something unexpected happened just before Christmas. When I think about it now, I can hardly believe it. I forgot our wedding anniversary.
…This holiday season has been filled with so many wonder-fur moments! The gifts, the joy, the long cozy naps. My world has been full of delights and activity, coupled with respect for my personal space.
…The most wonderful time of the year? I beg to differ. If it was so wonderful, I would be invited to participate in it.
…If you’re old enough, you might recognize today’s title as a song lyric from the 1972 soft rock hit, It Never Rains in Southern California. Albert Hammond wrote and sang it. And if you know the song, it goes on to say: It pours, man, it pours.

From my new writing space, all I see is corn, hay, more corn, trees, and more trees. There is a neighbour a km or so away, but I can’t quite make out their house. This is the road less traveled but there is a streetlight across from our home. It’s a little bit of civilization in a pretty remote area.
