Crazy Cat Lady, Who Me?

So, Liz is having this competition to win a ticket to the sold out Problogger’s training event in Melbourne next month.

I had really wanted to go, but didn’t have the money at the time and couldn’t quite justify another trip to Melbourne. But I now have a SUPER exciting new project I am working on…it would be the perfect opportunity to share it with you all.

I never enter competitions, they always ask stupid questions. 25 words or less..be creative. I have run competitions where I get 100′s of entries of songs, poems and limericks. Pfft, I have no chance!

But when I saw Liz’s question I thought… cats..hmm, maybe I can do that. Then I got to thinking about some of the pictures I had, and giggling to myself just a little too much. I thought why not. At least I’ll have a post for Caturday.

So here is my entry, which is basically a collection of my most embarrassing cat pictures.

The competition question is…

“Tell me how you would smuggle a cat and/or dinosaur into the ProBlogger Training Day.”

Ok, so plan A is…. Disguise cats as babies, and smuggle them in a pram.

I have a cat pram, yes..I really do. We can smuggle at least 3 cats in. Room for Train, if we leave Alex at home. And quite possibility a few smaller dinosaurs, maybe some stegosaurus?

Dress them like babies. I’m pretty sure the ears would give them away, hide the ears…and it is like looking at a real baby!

Or, stick one in next to a real baby. People are for ever bullshiting “Oh wow, don’ they look a like” Again, hide the ears, no one will know!

Meezer’s meows often sounds very much like a small baby crying.

Allow Calais to demonstrate…

Now, if that doesn’t work. Never fear..I have a plan B!

Drag queen bloggers!

So there you have it. The place will be over run with cats!

Noiceities-Kitteh Snuggles and twat rugs

For ease of use, Noice-ities is now freestyle. So each week I am going to share something noice, and something not noice from my week.

Noice…
Working from home today and feeling a bit flat, nothing beats kitteh snuggles. Kittehs must be cold, and I bet they aren’t really enjoying being home a lone a lot these days. So have had both the chocolate babies fighting over who gets to sit right in my face. Alex is happier to ride in the back seat.

And now for the Not Noice…and well, just plain creepy!

We were out rug shopping on the weekend and spotted this, and all I could think of was THESE cupcakes.

The whispering eye rug…who in their right mind would buy that?? (click to bigify)

No..we didn’t

We did get a bargain tho, the rug we got was originally $899 and we got it for $220..woo!

Happy Caturday!

Guess there will be no washing going on here today. Yes, my bath is actually the dirty clothes basket at the end of a busy week. If your bath was that colour, would would want to cover it too!

Long weekends, perfect for napping.

The war of the mouse house

Everyone loves a freebie, and one of the added bonuses of feeding premium cat food is the cool freebies you often get with purchase. IAMS is one of the better companies, we have cat carriers for all, tunnels, tents, treat balls and all manner of tins and containers for storing the food.

Today when I went to get the cat food there was a cute little mouse house. Someone will love that I thought.

The meezers are a bit like children (well, maybe a lot) If someone has something, they all want it. And so started the war of the mouse house that.

Calais claimed it first, as soon as I took it out of the packet he was in there.

Gemini came a long soon after and wanted in on the action. Calais how ever was not at all interested in sharing. Much biffo followed and she jumped out..only to return 2mins later for another try and repeat x10. (she is a bit slow)
