The one that got away...

Hello, brother and sister house panthers...It is I, Miss Bella again to share with you a story about the "one that got away" grrrrrrrr......

I was  perched upon my favorite cliff hangout, when I heard IT... one of those little twitter thingy's with wings that I always want to eat. It was right outside, taunting me...

I started clacking at it "keh keh, keh", letting it know that I was onto it, I was ready to pounce on him. Then my sister, Sele, heard the hunting call and she joined me on the ledge...

I don't like it when she tries to hone in on my prey, so I kicked  her off, even though mom doesn't like it when I do that. I mean, come on, what does she think she is? Cats hunt alone and we don't like to share our treasures, right?

So, back to planning on how I was going to capture this twitter nuisance.

It came closer unaware of my presence...My eyes focused on every detail of it, knowing that it was going to be mine soon...

And then blast it all, it saw me and flew away from me...this annoyed me to no end!

Oh well, what's a cat to do, other than plot one's revenge for the next time?

Until we talk again, brother's and sister's, stay sharp and be ready to pounce when the time is right....

The importance of sleep...

Hello brother and sister house panthers...
I've had so much fun getting to know all of you and meeting other gorgeous panther cats like myself.  We are the most beautiful, are we not? And I know all of YOU know how important it is to get beauty sleep. So, today I'd like to share with you, how rudely I'm interrupted by my mom when I try to get refreshed.

First, when my mother wakes up, I climb back into MY bed and snuggle back down into the blankets.

I love the comfort of re-arranging of the blankets, just the way I want too. But then, my mother has the audacity to remove me from my blanket nest, so that she "makes the bed" (her words, not mine) and that upsets my whole sleeping routine, so I always shoot her a dirty look to see if she'll changer her mind, but it never works.

So, finally after much grumbling, I'm finally awake...

I show her how displeased I am that she makes me get out of my bed.

 After she apologizes me, I get back to the important matter of sleeping and prepare myself for a cat nap.

I start to tune out any annoyances from either my sister, Sele or my mother..I move around the bed a bit to find just the right spot to sleep, but I can feel my eyes closing...

And finally when everything is peaceful, I go back to sleep and forget the world...

So, the important lesson here, is don't let your humans distract you from the important things in life, like sleep. With enough determination, nothing can stop we cats from getting what we want, which is to sleep.

Purrs to all of you, Miss Bella
