Recent Earthquakes in the Pacific Northwest

Recent Earthquakes in the Pacific Northwest

While we can't honestly say we understand this, we did feel it!
Mom's bed shook and it felt like a cat jumping on it. But we
are us and the cats live with Edwin in Seattle, so it was some
kind of confusing. Until Ann said: "No, you really did have an
earthquake!"

Mom remembers one that happened at Ann's house. We were sitting
around her kitchen table when her kitty tore off running around
and around the bungalow like crazy! And mom asked Ann how her
kitty could make the whole house shake like that, like, what
kinda kitty WAS THIS?

Duh, don't blame the kitty! It was an earthquake. Even today
mom blamed the kitty and we don't even have one! Just us,
and Taj has learned how to escape from our owlie play-pen!

AnnieBanani, we miss having "The Voice of Reason" in our lives,
HELP US!

"I DIDN'T DO IT... I SWEAR!"

 


If I look guilty of something, remember this: I didn't do it.
I never do.
Thank you,

OUR NEW PLAY-PEN!

 


After hay, bedding, litter, pellets, poo, and unidentified flying poo-shaped
objects surrounded all our cages after RunAbouts, mom went and found this
cool little owl rug that can be washed in the washing machine! Now instead
of running about outside our cages, she moves our cages out into a "wagon
train" kind of circle, installs our little fence, hops in the middle to bond
with us, and...all that matters to US: BRINGS BREAKFAST!

SQUEEEEEeeeeeeeeee! We happy, she happy, everybody havin' a good time now!

"I asking nicely, too."

That pretty, metrosexual, multi-colored dude may be
easy on the eyes, but beneath that "CoverPig" veneer
lurks one sneaky food-thief! All da handsome ones is
like dat! They's so full o'they's own pretty but - believe me -
underneath that deceptively colorful fur they's unscrupulous: And he my brother!
Thinks he looks like Fabio, yA, RIGHT.
Gonna Get Him Back, yeah, when he ain't expecting it,
gonna snatch his fat, juicy,organic orange carrot and run wid it like a wild stallion
galloping across the wind-swept prairies where the land meets the Big Sky...
Yup, that a plan!
I make a FABULOUS stallion! Squeeee, gonna be AWESOME!

"Mom! Raj is Stealing My Lettuce...Again. Help!"

 


Just 'cause he pretty don't mean a thing
'Cause he ain't got that swing...all swagger and thievery!

"TWAS LIKE A DREAM SO LONG AGO...

 
Posted by Picasa

A winter month in the Pacific Northwest can seem like an eternity when every day
is garbed in varying shades of gray...light gray, dark gray, drizzle gray, full-on
rain gray, ice pellet gray, before snow falls gray, wake-up gray, go to bed gray,
foggy gray, gray for no particular reason, gray for every conceivable reason, gray
to get people to buy light boxes, gray to make people simply want to hibernate...

There is only ONE TRUE antidote and this is it! Go High! Find y'self in the Mountains
coated with white powder, fresh mountain air, the sound of stellar jays, ravens, the
elusive white ptarmigan...

The Mountain! WE Shall return...if we ever get well, climb out of bed, and remember
what day it is...SNOW DAY, MOUNTAIN DAY, LATTE DAY! HERE'S TO "THE RETURN & MAY IT
BE SOON!"

HEY RAJ, JUST OUTTA CURIOSITY...WHATCHA GOT HIDIN' BACK THERE?

 



Raj is a handsome fella and don't he know it!
But Taj suspects he is hiding a secret in those
beautiful, long tresses, and I - MacNutPie -
shall find out what - or WHO - he got hiding in there.
She will be mine, all mine!

{EDITOR: "NO, SHE WILL NOT!"}

Oh, O.K. then, I'll try to find Coconut and...

{EDITOR: "NO! NO! ABSOLUTELY YOU WILL NOT!"}

Oh, FINE! Whatsa guy gotta do to get some
hay around here?! Goodness gracious, it's not
like I was sniffin' somebody's butt or something gross like that.

{EDITOR: "UH, YES, YOU WERE!"}

FINE!

Awwww, Would Someone Hand Me a Tissue, Please?

 


Tonight the gang and I watched Mel and Sydney's owl box and they
were all kissyFace and beaking and grooming each other and it made
me wonder whether I will ever find my own true love, as they have?
Usually, all I care about is food, running about, chasing Raj out
of my Pigloo, tumping over the food bowl, drinking the water bottle
dry, and whistling a shrill, loud soprano squeal in my unmistakable
voice...but watching those two love-birds tonight made me start to
question my life: am I missing out on something?

{EDITOR: "NO!"}

Aww, O.K. SO, CAN A PIGGIE GET SOME HAY FOR BEDTIME ALREADY?
