MoggiePurrs

Mom emptied a basket and I appropriated it for my new bed. See if the dog gets his paws on this!

It is with incredible reluctancethat I am posting to tell you Moggipurrs will cease to exist as an active, updated blog from this point forward. The site will still be here, so people can access the content, but I won’t be writing new posts. I didn’t want to just “disappear” from the blogosphere…

Sophie here: We’re signing off for the year now and will return in 2015 with an update on the move, and our State of the Blog

I love all the Christmassy smells!

Sophie here: Me and the Mom-Person have been busy planning our move. The last time we moved was pretty traumatic

Sophie…ace snoopervisor at your service!

for me. I didn’t eat for 3 days. But there is no car ride involved in this one as we are just moving downstairs. I think I can handle this one. We’ll see.

She told methe dog has to come with us. Well, okay, I suppose we can’t leave him behind.…

Cat Says Chill Out Mom

I was aghast, AGHAST I tell you, when I saw that it had been more than two weeks since our

Oh, a bow! My favorite toy. I wonder how long it will take me to rip it off that box.

last post here on Moggiepurrs. Yikes! But that doesn’t mean I haven’t been enjoying all of your great kitty-posts. I’ve yucked it up with Sammy and Summer and Carl and Waffles and Katie and Ernie and Wally, the Kitties…

Cat Lends Another Post to Human

Sophie has graciously allowed me to hijack another post off of Moggiepurrs so I

Hmmm…do kitties have angels, too?

can tell you about my writing.

There is a post on Heart & Soul Ezine with more information about connecting with your angels. Yes, I wrote it. I hope you will read it. It’s based on personal experience. If you would like to comment (and I certainly would love to hear from you), please…

Who Stole All The Good Smells?

Our first snowstorm of the season produced widely different reactions in

Someone stole all the good doggie smells!

my pets. Sophie loved watching the snow come down for hours. She would not move from her perch on the sofa. Ollie, on the other paw, was in for a shock.

When nature calls,you gotta go — it doesn’t matter that there’s a storm outside. So, out we go, bundled up for the cold and snowy…

Uh-oh, Bad Kitty No More

Sophie here: Uh-oh, I guess I have been a bad kitty. I can’t be Miss Crankypants with mom anymore. She just told me that in January 2015 she will go in for knee replacement

Sophie is always monitoring the perimeter for interlopers.

surgery on her right knee. Yikes. I’m glad it’s her and not me. But that means me and the woofie will be cared for by others for about 3 days while she is in the…

Cat Communicates with Human

My kitty told me the other day that she wasn’t feeling so hot. How do I know? When

(c) Moggiepurrs 2014 “Wake me when it is Springtime again.”

I tried to pet her down the length of her back, she turned quickly to give me a nip on my hand. That’s not like her. Then, another day, I reached my hand down from my chair to pet the top of her head as she was sitting near my feet, and she threw a claw at…

For What Are You Grateful?

If you look closely, you will see Sophie’s reflection in the eye.

I think, for peoplewho live alone, the greatest gift they can give to themselves is to share their home with a pet. Having a reason to rush home from running errands may seem like a hassle, but I’m sure glad I have that reason. Purchasing rawhide bones for the dog or kitty treats for the cat really doesn’t cost me much, but it pays…

Silly Human Riles Cat

(c) Moggiepurrs 2014

Sophie here: So my human keeps calling me everything but my real name. Frequently, I hear “silly cat.” Next up is “sweet baby.”  I am neither silly, sweet, nor a baby. I’m a CAT!! Human’s should know these things.

What’s that Mom???

Oh, Mom says she’snot going to let me use the Internets anymore if all I do is complain. I am 12 years old and think I have earned the right to…

Howl-O-Ween Started Early Here

Yes, Howl-O-Ween started early in our house, about the time that Ollie-the-dog came to live with us. The first day was memorable in so many ways, but specifically, when Sophie-the-cat sat on my bed and HOWLED her fuzzy little head off for me to come to her.

She was not happy about a woofie coming to live here and wanted to make sure I knew just how much.

Sophie would notlet me comfort her, pet…

National Cat Day A Hit With Cats

Sophie here: It’s National Cat Day this week…October 29th. That’s what it says on Mom’s calendar. Hmmmm….I

(c) Moggiepurrs 2014

wonder how people celebrate it. I know cats think EVERYDAY is Cat Day. We have a little nip, purr a song or two, and luxuriate in our favorite napping spots.

I think it is nice tohave a National Cat Day. There are “days” for everything else, why not one for cats? I mean,…

Autumn Leaves and I Wish the Dog Would Too

Sophie here: I’m looking forward to Halloween. I like when it gets close to that holiday because I watch

I like my perch. No one can get me here. It’s even a stretch for Mom.

the leaves whirling about from the window (IF THE DOG DOESN’T GET IN MY WAY). It’s also close to the time when Mom turns the heat on, so it is warm and toasty here. It might only be on for a little while every day just to…

We are signed, sealed and delivered now as a new pet family. Ollie-the-dog is an official member of

This used to be my bed. The dog stole it from me!

Sophie-the-cat’s household. No more fostering — Ollie and I own each other now. He’s very happy about it. Sophie is resigned to her new position as alpha-animal in the house.

There was a smalldust-up the other day when Sophie occupied the arm of…

I’m Okay And So Are You

There have been some great blog posts recently on tortoiseshell cats and black cats, but my favorite

marking on a cat is the tabby design. I don’t know why — that tabby face has just always drawn me in and I consider it a “10.” That’s not to say I can’t appreciate the beauty of a Siamese or a long-haired cat. They’re beautiful in their own way, but who can say why they are…

What’s Wrong With These Pictures?

(c) Moggiepurrs 2014

According to Sophie, what’s wrong with these pictures is that there is a dog sleeping in a cat bed, namely HER cat bed.

But on the other paw, she wasn’t using it. If you’re not going to claim it as your property SOMEBODY should get use out of it.

So, now it is a dog bed.Much more comfortable than the floor. I wasn’t going to tell him he couldn’t use it…

It’s not about cats, but maybe it’s better
