MK: Owwww!
BC: Hmph. I'm my OWN cat! You kitty-napped me against my will and dragged me here to snuggle with you! I'm a CAT. I don't NEED you!
MK: Because you BIT me!
BC: I don't understand what that has to do with anything.
BC: RATS!

BC: {CHOMP!!!}
MK: Owwww!
BC: Hmph. I'm my OWN cat! You kitty-napped me against my will and dragged me here to snuggle with you! I'm a CAT. I don't NEED you!
MK: Bear, you TURNED around from walking down the hall and you jumped up on the bed of your own free will when I called you.
BC: I don't know what you're talking about! I didn't hear anything.
MK: And I saw you walking here with your tail straight up and stuttering slightly.
BC: My tail doesn't TALK! Hmph. A stuttering tail! Next thing you know you'll say my NOSE MEOWS!
{Pause}
BC: Just in case you didn't know ... MY NOSE DOES NOT MEOW!
MK: Bear, you walked in the bedroom with your tail straight up on the air in greeting.
BC: I don't know what you're talking about! I didn't hear anything.
MK: And I saw you walking here with your tail straight up and stuttering slightly.
BC: My tail doesn't TALK! Hmph. A stuttering tail! Next thing you know you'll say my NOSE MEOWS!
{Pause}
BC: Just in case you didn't know ... MY NOSE DOES NOT MEOW!
MK: Bear, you walked in the bedroom with your tail straight up on the air in greeting.
BC: In greeting? A cat's tail greets no one. Well, except if she comes bearing tuna. Hahahaha. How does a tail say goodbye?!?! Flick a person off?
MK: That's not what flicking ... oh, never mind! Your tail was also doing that vibrating thing it does when you can barely contain your excitement.
BC: Hahahahahaha. Contain my excitement. For YOU! Hahahahahaha.
{Pause}
BC: Hey! Why'd you stop rubbing my ears?!?!
{Pause}
BC: Hey! Why'd you stop rubbing my ears?!?!
MK: Because you BIT me!
BC: I don't understand what that has to do with anything.
MK: Ummm ... you bite because you don't want to be petted?
BC: No. I bit you because I had to pretend I hate you since I came ... oh, RATS!
{Pause}
BC: {walking in circles on the bed} Do de do DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Do de do DOO!
BC: {walking in circles on the bed} Do de do DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! Do de do DOO!

BC: I HATE YOU! Crying TREATS where no treats are present is only going to cause me to ignore the cry.
MK: TREATS!

Pictures of the day:
Yesterday's Sunday Selfies featured Bear Cat "helping" Momma unload the dishwasher. And no, the cat wasn't what was washed in the dishwasher. In the last shot, you see him inspecting all the dishes before they are put away (or in the case of his water and food bowls ... before they are filled). Bear "earns" his stripes!

Such cute pictures, but Bear in the cupboard is the best ! Indeed he acts like my Arthur ! these little mischievous cats !
ReplyDeleteYes, the independent, stubborn little balls of fur with big hearts ... gotta love them!
DeleteA little bite never hurt anyone ...well, maybe it did, but sometimes it is necessary.
ReplyDeleteWell, she's never had to get medical attention ... err ... umm ... THAT TIME DOESN'T COUNT! ~Bear Cat
DeleteHi Bear, peeps do have extra, superflertous bits, mine has extra singing and talking, which I would dearly like to get rid of! purrs ERin PS. In this Palace, when it comes to my cream versus peeps doughnuts, in the tummy debate, I usually counter with pizza but peep throws in the mice... if only peep would! purrs
ReplyDeleteDon't even get me started on Momma's "singing," I've heard better vocals from a three-legged spider! How come we never get mouse pizza? I mean would it kill them to get our favorite flavor for once? ~Bear Cat
DeleteLittle nips are love bites, right Bear? We love the pics of you in the cupboard.
ReplyDeleteLove bites ... hahahahaha. Oh, wait. That wasn't a joke was it? ~Bear Cat
DeleteWTG Bear you are an excellent Quality control Inspector. Gotta be sure the dishes are put away spic and span.
ReplyDeletehugs madi your bfff
Actually, there's a specific amount of fur that is supposed to be deposited on each one ;) ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou're so helpful, Bear ! Great job snoopervising ! Purrs
ReplyDeleteMy job is never done. ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou be lookin' very handsum. We luv mommy luvvin'. Ain't nuffin' else in da universe like it. Glad ya'll could both enjoy a little extra cuddle time. Big hugs and have a pawsum day.
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Raena
Thank you :) Yes, Mommas are super special ... as long as they don't know it ;) ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou two have such a fun relationship! Bear, it is your mommy's job (and joy) to pet you and cuddle you to pieces. Sometimes you just have to let it happen.:) My kitties have learned this too. It looks like you had a fun exploring those kitchen cupboards!
ReplyDelete-Purrs from your friends at www.PlayfulKitty.net
Yes, yes. Joy ... but I must at least ****PRETEND**** to not like it! ~Bear Cat
DeleteExcellent soopervising! Humans need our help all the time and watched to see that things are done right, not the other way which is to say, "WRONG!"
ReplyDeleteEXACTLY! ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou two are so cute together! The love you have for each other is so special :)
ReplyDelete"Love" is one word for it ;) ~Bear Cat
DeleteHAH! We are so alike! This morning TW tried to pet me when she woke up. I bit her hard. She called me all kinds of names.
ReplyDeleteToo much fun! Every so often, I learn a new word too! ~Bear Cat
DeleteBear, you love giving mixed messages, don't you??
ReplyDeleteI'm consistent ... for a cat! ~Bear Cat
DeleteYou do have a great butt, I guess that is why you can get away with anything- like biting your Momma. :)
ReplyDeleteI'm grounded well into my 9th life ... my Momma just doesn't tell everyone that! ~Bear Cat
DeleteMy head keeps going back and forth like a tennis match trying to figure out the language of BC. Clearly my dogs are not providing me with enough data on intrepretating cat language.. ;)
ReplyDeleteI've shared my life with a cat for 25 years ... and I don't understand cat either!
DeleteWell, it started out so well anyway...
ReplyDeleteIt usually does, doesn't it? :p
DeleteHmph. It's a good thing my Momma doesn't listen to you! You'd be next on my list! ~Bear Cat
ReplyDeleteI am imprssed with your plate inspecting skills Bear!
ReplyDeleteI've had a lot of practice! ~Bear Cat
DeleteLove the Bear in the cupboard shots!
ReplyDeleteCats of wildcat woods
Thank you!
DeleteBear, you do like to keep your poor Momma guessing about what you might be thinking from one minute to the next! When Samantha gives us one of those bites, we call them "love bites" but now I wonder if that's really what they are or not! :)
ReplyDeleteJan, Wag 'n Woof Pets
I don't do love bites ... it's either full on attack mode or nothing. Nope. No warnings here! Keeps Momma on her toes :) ~Bear Cat
DeleteSoth likes to turn on me like that, too! He'll be purring away with his eyes closed tight and then all of the sudden he's wrapping his paws around my wrist and drawing my hand towards his open mouth! Silly cats.
ReplyDeleteKeeps you on your toes, doesn't it? ;)
DeleteMy daughter's cat did that to me! I was petting, he was purring and then he bit me! Between you and me, it makes me appreciate my dogs. ��
ReplyDeleteOh, yes. I am the master of the all out attack while purring ... keeps Momma on her toes! ~Bear Cat
DeleteI absolutely love these pics of the kitchen cabinets and you being sneaky inside near the plates - this is adorable!
ReplyDeleteThank you :) It's not often that I beat Momma to something! ~Bear Cat
DeleteWhat a cutie! Is he your only cat? We have two, and they love the collies. (They play with the collies all day long!)
