We all need a little help

Hi efurrybody, Saku here today!

I'm helping the mom bean!  You see, our bean sisfur's furriend has made a blanket for the sticky bean and mom bean is finishing it off by crocheting a border.  She set it down on the floor for a minute and I sat on it to make sure it doesn't run away on her.  

I gotta tell you it is pretty darn soft!  In fact it is so comfy I think I'll take a nap.  Mom, you're gonna have to wait until I wake up to work on it.  Sorry, not sorry!

Have a great day efurrybody!

And we thought the birds were noisy!

Hi efurrybody!  We've got a no sun, noisy day happening here.

Pieces of the sidewalk to be hauled away

There are a bunch of guys in orange vests with yellow stripes making noise and a mess in our backyard.  Mom bean says they are here to move a gas line...whatever that is.  




Sasha doesn't seem too concerned - it helps to be old and going deaf!  He says he's just going to settle in on the couch and take a nap.

Saku on the other hand is not impressed! He says, how is a kitty supposed to nap when there is such a racket going on?  Well, we sure hope they won't be here all day.

Have a great quiet day efurrbody!

Getting our easy on

Hi efurrybody, Sasha and Saku here today.  We're enjoying our easy in the sunny room!

Sasha is curled up in a chair fast asleep.  

Saku is up in the cat tree watching the great outdoors.

I've got a great view of the bird bath and the feeder too.  Mom bean went out earlier and filled both of them.  But for a little while both were empty!


But not for long - that's a grackle in the feeder. 

And one of the babies at the bird bath.  It's sure getting big and the feathers are coming in.

Then Mr. Squirrel showed up for his lunch.  Mom bean went out and told him to leave some for the birds.   He went away ...but for how long?  

Have a great easy Sunday efurrybody!

Someone turn it down please

Our cat television channel has been furry noisy the last couple of days!

There are now four baby grackles that have flown the coop.  Well, maybe not flown 'cuz they don't fly furry well.  But they can fly short distances, like up on top of the feeder, the bird bath, and even the fence.

 There were actually two that were hanging out on the ground underneath the feeder.  Mom bean says they don't eat the seed that has fallen though.


This one took a bath in the bird bath and then, darned bird, it pooped on the rock, and dirtied the bath water!  Mom bean laffs at the little feather tufts on its head.

 

The little one was waiting for one of the pawrents to show up with some food.  Mom bean tried to get a photo of the feeding but neither bird would cooperate. The little one squawks up a storm when it is hungry so mom bean always knows when they are out there.


They were all furry noisy this morning when Mr. Squirrel paid a visit to the feeder.  The pawrents even tried to make him go away but he didn't, he just tucked his tail in and kept on eating.  

Mom bean thought she might stop feeding the birds for a couple of days so maybe the grackles would go somewhere else.  But she's a softie and doesn't want to keep the other birds from having a snack too.  Or even Mr. Squirrel.


Have a great day efurrybody! 

Napping - it's what we do best

Hi efurrybody!   Sasha and Saku here today!

These close-ups were taken by the mom bean last night when we all went to bed.  We sure like to get our pets in before she goes to sleep.  Gotta make sure she knows we luv her, right?  MOL
Saku likes to sit on top of her ...don't want her to fall out of bed, right?  

But we both know how to get out of the way when she rolls over to go to sleep.  

It has been furry hot here the last couple of days, so the mom bean has closed up the sunny room.  Today it is cooler and cloudy, so the room is open.  But the neighbour is putting up a new fence so it's noisy now.  Hmmm... maybe we need to convince the mom bean to go back to bed for the day.  We need our naps!

Have a great day efurrybody!

Happy Birthday Sasha!

Happy 19th birthday to our handsome mancat Sasha!  Mom bean isn't entirely sure when he was born but working backwards from when Sasha adopted our beans she believes it was within a few days of May 25.  So this year we'll celebrate today ('cuz she forgot this weekend!)

Sasha has always been a furry special kitty, pawtient with all the new kittens who come into his world, and just a happy, loving kitty to the beans.  He's gotten noisier as he's gotten older, always letting the beans know when he's hungry or wants some attenshun.  

Today he's in his favorite spot, in the sunny room in the midst of a sun puddle having a nap.  There will be treats later and lots of love from the beans.
