I am the crazy cat woman in the huge old creepy house that waves to complete strangers in cars and is sad when they speed up............sigh.......

Sadly, yes I have stepped over that thresh hold of what is deemed normal behavior when it comes to cats.. I have entire conversations with my cats...... I MEAN REAL FULL CONVO'S!!!!

It goes something like this.....

I wake up at 6:20am, put on my ugly old pink bathrobe and stumble down my overly creaky stairs into my kitchen and turn on the coffee pot.

Go back up overly creaky stairs and wake up youngest daughter....

Make breakfast for daughter, which she doesn't eat....
Clean up kitchen.
Kiss daughter and send her on her way to school...
Look to the right, now to the left, make sure no one is around.......
Turn on morning music, walk into the kitchen and....

Meeeeeoooooooowwwww!
"Mingli, you startled me" I say
Meeeooooowwwww Meow meow....
I know, I can see you are out of food, hang on...a sec, I need to grab my...
Meeeoow meeeow meow meow.....
Ok, Ok I will get it now, you are certainly....
MEEEOOOOW!
Really? Are you sure...
meow meow..
Enter Mushu...
deep meoooooow
Good morning Mushu!!!
Mingle-....meooooowwwwwww,
Ok Mingli, here is your food, Mushu! DO NOT PUSH HER OUT OF THE WAY!!!
Mushu-nom nom nom nom
Me- Mushu! move over!
Mingli- MEEEEOOOOOOW!
I am going outside you two can work this out!!!
Open the very squeeky back door,,,,creeeeaaaaaak!
Ah...How beautiful!!!....
Great big deep overly loud MEOOOOOOW!
Good Morning Elliott!, My you look handsome this morning!
Deep MEOW!
Well, if you throw yourself down I can't pet you, no.no do not claw my leg...
Enter Winston..
Teeny tiny piff
Hi Winst.....OW..Elliott let go! Hi Winston how are you today?
piff piff
Do you need some food? And water??? Ok, OK, hang on honey!
Overly creaky door open up again.......CREEEAKKK
Mushu rushes towards door, I push him back, start to close the door, Mingli-MEEEEEOOOOW!
Quickly shut door, be attacked by Elliott and Winston over food......
Elliott knocks food scoop out of my hand.
I sigh and get more food, the broom and dust pan
I clean up spilt food.
Deep Meow, I love you Elliott!
Piff Piff, and you too Winny!
Car dives by slowly...probably staring at me in my ugly old pink bathrobe, with my puffy coat, Ugg knock offs and very very seriously stylish slouch hat...
I smile my best smile forgetting I am being circled by cats like Great White Sharks surrounding a wounded seal, and wave my beauty Padget wave...
Meoooooowwww,
I know I saw them speed up....
Deep MEEEEOOOW...
Yes, I saw they locked the door Elliott, jeez, don't rub it in
Piff Piff....
That was just rude Winston....
And then I go back into the house, get dressed in something cute and hop on the computer.....

LOL. I am so happy to know I am not alone. I could not stop laughing.

One of my good friends tells me the only thing separating me from the title of "crazy cat lady" is my husband.

have a good evening, from one crazy cat lady to another,
Alicia

haha - at least you talk to an actual lifeform. I found myself talking to myself all by myself this morning. Then I actually realized I was having a conversation with myself and thought "dang, Im going crazy!"

But kitty's need to be talked to. I have two labs that I chat with daily.

Brandi, you are cute! Every one of your cats seems to have their very own personality! Animals are precious, aren't they! :)

Love you!

Oh, Honey... I also talk to myself..... It is so pathetic isn't it? When did we become those women talking to themselves about how many cans of beans are in the pantry.....am I right?
I was in the bathroom the other day talking to myself out loud about toilet paper and the price of it...I stopped, went and looked at myself in the mirror, did a double take, just to make sure that it was I, talking to myself....so sad...toilet paper....sigh...
Dogs are people too..my chihuahua, Chichi, dances with me when I am sad and sings some mean opera...


Alicia- I think that as cat ladies, we should form a club called....Crazy Cat Women who talk to cats and the cats who love them... or better yet a book with the same title...a little long, but who cares, we'll be the only one who will read it and we can then read it to our cats, they will listen to us, as long as we let them tuck themselves under our chin in a most uncomfortable position.....lol

Valerie,
If I didn't have my animals I would be so dull and lifeless! They truly make life worth living!!!
Each of my animals are unique and divine,

Mingli is jet black and acts like a litle old southern belle, soft and demure, unless she wants food or to be touched, then she hollers!!

Mushu, who is a tortoise shell cat(everyone of my friends favorite cat)named after a chinese dragon, is a ragdoll. No one can walk past him with out touching him. He lays like a baby in your arms..
He is a big boy...all 16 lbs of fluff.

Elliott, is the grand master of our cats, He rules the roost, he is a tuxedo cat, so he is uppity. He is really big, like 18lbs. big

Winston is the baby of the family,( he is a plain jane, dust bunny grey tabby) he is spoiled and rotten, but wonderful, he jumps from the floor into my arms, and purrs really loud.

Chichi, is not a cat( he is a fawn chihuahua) but he thinks he is a people, he is old and crotchity. He barks at inaproppriate times, and forces hiself onto my lap. He is like the fun miser.....Unless we are alone, then he breaks loose and parties!!!!
