Two Cats and a Phantom Tuesday: The Battle of the Not-Box and Pimp's Vet Update

Tweet

Happy Two Cats and a Phantom Tuesday, Cuteheads! This week there was a bit of a scuffle of the much-coveted not-box, and Pimpy went to the vet (again) because we still haven't figured out exactly what is wrong with his poop.

First up, The Battle of the Not-Box, one sure to go down in history. It was an epic, lazy battle, with both Moo and Phantom refusing to give up ground. After several slow swats and a few low grumbles, a truce was finally reached. Thank goodness, because I would have hate to have seen the not-box in ruins after any more serious of a battle!

Here's a photo play-by-play of the battle.

The Battle of the Not-Box.

So, that happened. It wasn't really a real battle, it just sounded fun to make it one. It was lazy enough where I sat there taking pictures, and the boys just came to the conclusion that they needed to share. We're making progress!

Now on to the saga of Pimp's poop (no shortage of drama here this week!). It's still not right, so we went to the vet again last weekend. We have some super dewormer to give him and she gave him a B12 shot. Either of those could work, so I'm keeping an eye. He's also going to go get an ultrasound soon, so that we can just see everything that's going on in there. She is not saying there is anything more serious, but we should look since he's an old man and poop tells you when something isn't right.

Meanwhile, this is Pimp's favorite spot lately. On the IKEA furniture thing behind the couch, on the cat mat I put there. He'd been sitting there, so I put a bed there... and voila! Best. Spot. Ever.

Have a great week, everyone!

Thanks for the bed here, mom! It's the best!

Two Cats Tuesday: Not-Box Shenanigans

Tweet

Happy Two Cats Tuesday, Cuteheads! Today we just have a quick one... Moo and his not-box are still going strong. In fact, he's getting very creative with it.

Not only is the not-box not really a box, but you don't even have to be "in" it to enjoy it. You can squiggle it all up and just plop on top.

My not-box is getting softer with age.

Two Cats Tuesday: Moo and His Not-Box... THE MOVIE!

Tweet

Happy Two Cats Tuesday, Cuteheads! Today is the day you've all been waiting for. I caught Moo playing with his not-box on video!

You've seen him sitting in it, on it and under it -- but never with it... until now!

He's such a silly, silly boy. Moo just cracks me up!

Two Cats Tuesday: Not-Box Twister and Pimp's Long Toes

Tweet

Happy Two Cats Tuesday, Cuteheads! This week Moo did the silliest pose yet with his not-box and Pimp was relaxing, as usual, with his big feet all stretched out on the couch.

Moo is such a nutcase. I have no idea why he loves this not-box so much, but I'm telling you what, we'll be in really bad shape if something ever happens to it or if it ever gets ruined. So far he's kept it in pristine condition, thank goodness!

This is what he did with it last night...

It's like not-box Twister! Imagine one leg red, one leg blue, two paws green... What a tangle!

Pimp, as usual, is content to find a nice spot to nap. He doesn't need to curl up with crazy pieces of cardboard for a rest. He likes the couch just fine, thank you very much.

The only thing twisting around here is my paw under my head. Zzzzz....

Two Cats Tuesday: Bigfoot, Da Bitey and a Not-Box Update

Tweet

Happy Two Cats Tuesday, Cuteheads! Pimp and Moo are having a silly day today. Moo decided to put Da Bitey (you know da bitey!) on something random and Pimp just was his cute self, except that I got a great picture of it.

First, let's visit Moo's shenanigans. "Shenanigans" should really be his middle name, little troublemaker that he is.

I was quietly reading my Kindle when I looked down to see this...

I put da bitey on this!

That is my Kindle cover sleeve thing! It is not a cat toy, and it certainly didn't deserve that senseless attack.

Pimp is much more rational and calm (about everything). He was lying on me with both his paws stretched out in front of him. Usually he stretches out just one paw (that's when you know he's comfortable), but this day he had both out. Must have been really comfy!

And so I took this picture and announced that Bigfoot is real.

I have the cutest paws in all the land.

You'll also all be relieved to know that Moo's not-box is still here, and that Moo has not grown tired of it. He prefers it to the box that is right next to it.

You did NOT think I would abandon my not-box, did you?!

Hope everyone has a great day!

Two Cats Tuesday: Moo's Not-Box Update and a Nap with the Boys!

Tweet

Happy Two Cats Tuesday, Cuteheads! This week Moo did some fantastic work with his not-box and I took a nap with both boys piled on top of me. (Yes, the not-box is still going strong!)

Moo rearranges his not-box all the time, and this week he decided he was done with it being even remotely like a box... He made a line!

The not-box is even less of a box!

And this weekend, we had the most lovely nap on the couch! We don't get to take a lot of naps (well, I don't, but the boys do!), and so whenever I lie down to take a nap, they both come right over and snuggle in for a good snooze.

NOTE FROM CUTE: We have two transports this weekend, and we need need just one leg covered! Can any of you help?

Saturday August 3rd
Ashburn, GA to Atlanta, GA in the evening

If you can help, please fill out our volunteer transport form! Don't forget you can drive down south from Atlanta to meet up with the kitties and bring them back up north!

Two Cats Tuesday: Moo's Not-Box Update and Pimp Get Cuddled

Tweet

Happy Two Cats Tuesday, Cuteheads! Today Moo wanted to update you on his not-box (yes, it's still going strong) and Pimp has to suffer through a cuddle attack.

If you haven't been following along on our Facebook page (why not?!), then you have missed out on some live reports from Moo's not-box! I've been posting pictures of him almost every night, hanging out in it. He loves that thing and is in it all the time!

He plays in it, under it, over it, between it... Who knew this would be the most amazing cat thing ever?

You can make the  not-box more vertical and nap between it.

You can also hang out just beside it. Not in it... but touching it. Still counts.

We love that not-box around here! And you know what else we love? Well, what I love anyway... Giving out cuddles! Especially when it's with Pimp. He just melts my heart every day.

Mom! You're smothering me, not snuggling me!

I was not smothering him, of course. Smothering him with smooches, maybe! We took this picture as part of an impromptu photo shoot for an article I wrote on Catster called "My Cat Might Be Getting Old But He's Still Awesome" -- all about Pimp!

Two Cats Tuesday: Moo's Fake Box

Tweet

Happy Two Cats Tuesday, Cuteheads! Today Moo has a new box (you know how he loves boxes!). But just between you and me, let's not tell him that this isn't really a box, OK?

This is a mighty fine box!

Wait. Holdonaminute. What are you saying?

This isn't a real box?! What do you mean?

Seems like a box to me!

This is a cardboard square thing that came inside one of those big under-the-bed Rubbermaid boxes. I took it out and just knew Moo would get in it and act like it was a box!

Who cares that it doesn't have a bottom? It's close enough for Moo!
