Happy springy catnip time!

Hi Everyone,

I haven't been on for awhile 'cause dad
hasn't been feeling too well. Good thing
is he's been home more, bad thing is that
he isn't feeling too good and we can't romp
on the bed like we like.

Mom feels bad for dad and has to work
harder to take care of him and do chores
and his job at work and stuff. They were
supposed to go visit their friends next week
but can't go now. Good for us because they
will be home and we won't have the oldest
cub invading our territory to take care of us!

Easter came and we got some Easter eggs!
We got some ice cream with whipped cream!
We had yams and chicken! Yum! Yum! The
grandcubs couldn't come over.....Yayyyyyy!!!
I hide from them. The cubs came by but didn't
stay long.....Yayyyyy!!! The oldest cub brought
cooked turkey and ham. This was good. We
already had the yams.

The weather is looking spiffy outside and
Velvet was naughty and slipped out the back
door! Mom and dad didn't even see her get
out. Dad heard her scratching at the back
door and let her back in. Good thing she is
spoiled and sleeps by mom's feet or by her
head or the rolling chair next to mom's side
of the bed. Good thing she knows to come
back inside!!!! I like to play with her and
wouldn't want anything to happen that was
bad.

Guess what else? We love catnip, except
Phoebe who runs from it. I get really silly
when I have some. Spring brings the catnip
out of the ground. I eat it then roll and roll
and roll, then savage the bed blankets.
Nimbus and Velvet love it, too. Good thing
mom picks us plenty! Once I bit mom's hand
after she picked some. I thought there was
still some catnip on it. I give the catnip leaves
the killing bite then I did in. Oh boy!!!!

My other neat trick is that I wait for mom to
get up and go to another room. I run ahead
then flop down on the floor right in front of
her and show her my belly. She always stops
to pet me :-)

Happy spring time to you with flowers and
catnip!
