Happy Friday! Ready to fill in the blanks? Good – so I am. This week I’m letting my Mom fill in some of the blanks for me. I had trouble thinking of something to say for a couple of the sentences SOOOOOOOOOOOO I decided to let Mom handle a few of the sentences. In a “pinch”, Mom always comes through! The ones Mom did are in RED and words I did are in GREEN. If you want to join in the filling in fun you can click the badge above and link up!
1. Sometimes I like to go to bed early with a book to read and sometimes I don’t.
2. If I had a nickel for every time I was able to get Mom to take me outside (tee hee), I would be rich.
3. Summer is already getting old, but I’m not complaining
4. I haven’t yet decided if I like my new catnip filled wine bottle toy or not – it doesn’t squeak when I touch it and I like squeaky things!
See? Mom and I did a good job together – we’re a GREAT team. Yep – we SURE are!!!! Thanks to our co-hosts for fill-in fun every week……….

Teddy, I may have to fill in those blanks too. Mom and I enjoy them.
1. Sometimes I like to cook a more complicated dish and sometimes (most times) I don’t.
2. If I had a nickel for every time I dropped something in the kitchen, I’d be rich. The kids always called it “The Atkins Dropping Ceremony.” (maiden name) and still do; and it has remained a staple in this house.
3. Summer is getting and started when it got here, old.
4. I haven’t decided whether or not to clean the refrigerator. I hate taking al the stuff out.

Great fill-ins! We love your #2……My Mom doesn’t drop but she does drip. No matter how careful she is, something always drips on the floor and she has to stop and clean it up. Maybe Mom has “The Kimmell Dropping Ceremony” thing????? Summer has worn us out already so we’re ready to bring on the cooler weather!

Ouch on broken hands…..maybe my Mom could tie a bell around the wine bottle’s neck – at least it would make an noise when I grabbed it or tossed it in the air!! Right now it just sits there…..!

I haven’t given up on the catnip wine toy (actually there are THREE of them) – but I think the catnip is just not very strong or something – I just pretty much ignore it and believe me – that is NOT LIKE ME!

Minko was the catnip fiend around here…he even knew how to open the drawer where it was kept…so he could steal it; he was naughty! We sure miss him so much, and Pipo, too.

Cats are very clever at finding things they shouldn’t find. We know several who open cabinets to steal things or drawers if they’re NOT QUITE closed all the way, etc. I’m afraid I’m not that adventurous I prefer to sleep on top of my toys or use them as pillows. HAHAHA

Yeah but most of us kitties don’t get as rough with our toys as some pups do so we rarely reach the “squeakable” stage of a toy when playing with it! LOL

As a premier murderer of squeaky toys, I think you’re missing out if you’re not rough, although as I’ve gotten older, I don’t seem to have as much zest for it as I did when Mom adopted me 7 years ago. Guess all things ‘mature.’ 😉

I suppose at 7 years old I’m considered middle aged now. I am more the “lay about” kind of guy now and my toys make nice pillows instead of fighting partners!!

We think Mom Pam should give you a nickel every time she or Dad David take you outside…like an allowance to buy frivolous things. We thought Mom Pam always went to bed early!
