Happy Howl-o-ween/Meow-lo-ween!

It's Halloween!!I may be too old to dress up and trick-or-treat, but Berta certainly isn't. So, it was off to the Howl-o-ween celebration at HSSC (and a pit stop at Park Place Apartments where Amy and Mel spoiled Berta with lots of attention and treats!)

Cluck cluck!

One thrilled chicken.

 

Trust me, Berta, you look flippin' adorable! Everyone will love you!

Seriously, mom? I mean, you look a little ridiculous yourself...I'm not so sure of this holiday. I think I like the one where people dress up as bunny rabbits better, when is that one!?

CHICKENS RULE!!!

These treats you're promising me better be dang good!!

Hey, I thought chickens got to ride shotgun!!

Ahhh, time for a chicken nap.

(See, she loves chickens! She nabbed my hat and turned it into a napping buddy.)

And now for Kip & Izzy's Meow-lo-ween celebration....naturally, they are going as professional wrestlers (no costume necessary.) And thanks to the wonderful world wide web (http://www.wrestlingname.com/), they now have professional wrestler names!

In the top position, wearing fur of unique black markings......Atomic Kingpin!!!

And in the defensive position, the little runt in the pearl necklace.....Lightning Atlas!!!

Paw attack!

Lightning Atlas screaming at Atomic Kingpin

A wrestling ball of fur

Atomic Kingpin going for the wrist kill...

Lightning Atlas takes over top position!

Nothing to see here, mom, move along....get back to dressing up the dog.

And a Meow-lo-ween send off from Mr. Wrigley!

Time to eat CANDY! :)

And last but not least:

The funniest man I know turns 85 years old today, we plan on him keeping the laughs coming for many years to come! We love you, Grandpa Eddy!

Morning Delight.

Here's how the days get started under our roof:

Nothing like a little wrestling (and tail-wagging for Berta) to get the blood flowin'!

Cuddlebugs.

The temperatures are dropping around here, so the best way to stay warm is to cuddle! As you will see, we stayed really warm this weekend :)

The first of the Berta & Izzy cuddles

Izzy using Berta as a pillow while serving as a blanket.

Sister nap!

Cozy cuddles

Berta's ear doubling as a belly warmer for a sprawled out Izzy.

So precious!

Couch cuddles with all my babies <3

Kip, my little love bug.

Friday night fun with the furry ones! It's clear who the favorite is in our house ;)

Stairway to cat heaven?

We love daddy, too!

Movie time on the couch...Berta can't stay awake.

Izzy most likely screaming at daddy, one of her favorite activities.

Berta & Izzy cuddles part 2:

Hilarious poses.

Kip decided to nap on a pillow, Berta style (not as cool as Gangnam style, FYI)

Still sleeping away

So cute!

No one likes sleeping alone...

I love it here!!

Hey, who's back there?!

Kip decided to join the slumber party.

HSSC trio!

Cats make me tired. So does breathing.

No matter how cute they are, never fully trust a cat. Must sleep with one eye open.

Movie Monday.

Izzy, the growler.

She was not amused by her cone. She expressed this by growling, hissing, drooling and being ticked off at/attacking her treats.

Just your typical evening in our house...Kip and Izzy going at it and Berta being completely oblivious (or just ignoring them, both are possible) while searching for food. Kip decided to go after Berta, so Izzy decides to take on the cabinet. Funny little furballs.

Can I Help You?

The little ones are always eager to lend a hand paw around the house. If only we could teach them to scrub the floors and clean the toilets (or maybe use the toilets, that'd be nice!)

Hey dad, what's for dinner? I'll help you find something tasty!

Cleaning out the fridge and its compartments...

Why do they use that sudsy brush thing? Don't they know you use your tongue for cleaning!?

We got winner!

Our little Mario and Luigi (or Mario and Princess Toadstool)

I better make sure this washer is clean before you do another load.

Laundry day is so much fun!

Clean clothes? I better make sure they have an adequate amount of fur on them before they get put away.

Who needs an oven or microwave to keep pizza warm? People without cats, that's who.

I thought if I kept it company the chicken would thaw faster.

(FYI-I came home from work to find Izzy...in the sink...just hanging out...with a bag of chicken breasts.)

Daddy brought home FISH!!!!!!!!!!! Since mommy won't go near it, we better be good little cats and help daddy eat it. We're so considerate and helpful!!

Don't worry, guys, I got the ironing covered. Just as soon as I finish playing with the strings on the board... 

You don't know what to wear today? Here, let me help.

Berta doing her best E.T. impression in the closet. And making sure the sleeves of my shirts have fur on them. What a help she is!

When do we get our allowance? We accept treats, toys and walks. You choose.
