Enjoying the Fire

Cheeto:  The fire feels good, doesn’t it, Mr. Murph? Murphy:  It sure does, kid. I wish we could convince the Lady to leave it going all the time. I’d never move from this spot. Cheeto:  But what about eating, Mr. Murph? You gotta eat! Murphy:  Kid, all you think about… Continue reading →

Thankful for the Fire

Hey guys. Y’know…it’s fall now but it hasn’t been real cold yet. But this past week there’s been some mornings when it’s been just a little bit chilly. On those days the fireplace gets turned on and I get to warm up my furs. Sure feels good. I bet you… Continue reading →

Easy E’s Selfie in Front of the First Fire of the Season

Hi guys! The weather here has definitely gotten cooler the last few days. So much so that the mom finally broke down and turned on the hot air blowing thingy. She’s always reluctant to turn it on because she says it really does mean summer is over and you-know-what is… Continue reading →

His Royal Highness

Are you a happy cat, Ernie? Oh yes, mom…I’m toasty warm…and happy down to my many toesies. Is there anything you need? Anything I can get you? Hmmm…maybe you could bring my food dish over here so I can eat by the warmth of the fire. Your wish is my… Continue reading →

Turn It On!

Well, crappity crap. The mom turned the fireplace off again. Guess I have to take matters into my own paws and turn this thing on again. Because…KITTENS! It’s cold outside! Now where’s that “on” switch? Today’s Veterans Day here in the U.S. of A. Thank you to all our veterans… Continue reading →
