Mancat Monday and Meme

I saw this meme on Caesar and Prinnie's bloggie, and they invited efurrybodies to play along. So me and Brainball and Dorydoo are gonna jump aboard. (Marilyn's playin' on her own bloggie.)

1. FIRST and MIDDLE NAME: Chairman Mao.

2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? Well sorta kinda I was named after Chairman Mao Tse-Tung (why's he called Tung? did he have a funny tung?), but I also like to sit in chairs, and when I talk I say MAO! MAO! MAO! MAO! MAOMAOMAOMAO!!

3. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY? Errr, I think it was last time my sistur Dorydoo swatted me. But I didn't really cry 'cause she nevur uses her clawsies. I just kinda hung my head and looked sad.

4. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? Ummm?

5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE LUNCHMEAT? I like all kindsa meat, not just lunchiemeat. I like breakfastmeat, suppermeat, snackmeat, morningmeat, eveningmeat, and midnightmeat.

6. RED OR PINK? Pink 'cause it's the color of Ariel's bloggie.

7. WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? Heck yeah, cuz I'm a whole lotta fun! I can always find somethin' to play with. The whole world's my kitty toy!

8. DO YOU HAVE A JOURNAL? Yeah, this bloggie. I wanna start a journal on Catster, too, 'cause my buddy Jeter tagged me for a meme ovur there.

9. DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT? Nah.

10. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST? My bee-yootiful girlfurriendkitty, Ariel.

11. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? Heck yeah! Looks like lotsa funsies. Boingy boingy boingy, MAO MAO MAO!

12. FAVOURITE CEREAL? Ummm?

13. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? I never take my white shoesies off. I'm a snowshoe Meezer, so that means I gotta wear my snowshoesies alla time.



1. FIRST and MIDDLE NAME: Calamity Jane or C.J. But everybody calls me Brainball because I'm a Fuzzball with Eyes.

2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? Rootin' tootin' Wild West Calamity Jane, of course. She was one tough, butt-kickin' gal. A woman after my own heart. She would have made an outstanding Alpha cat.

3. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY? Hmph. Big bad butt-kicking girls don't cry.

4. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? As Alpha Cat, I don't waste my time with frivolous scribbling. I'm a womancat of action.

5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE LUNCHMEAT? Hey, if it's good meat, I'll eat it.

6. RED OR PINK? *yawn* I prefer olive drab.

7. WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? Of course. One should always have a strong womancat at their back.

8. DO YOU HAVE A JOURNAL? No, but maybe someday. If nothing else, a great General should always write his or her memoirs.

9. DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT? No, I am an earnest cat. I meow what I mean, and I mean what I meow.

10. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST? Hatshepsut, female pharaoh from Ancient Egypt. She's my role model.

11. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? It would probably be fun, but I think I would prefer HALOing. Navy Seals and other Spec Ops units excel at this type of parachute jumping.

12. FAVOURITE CEREAL. I'm a carnivore. I don't eat cereal.

13. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? I don't wear shoes, but I will say this: on combat boots, one really ought to use zippers instead of shoelaces. Easy on, easy off, tactical and practical.



1. FIRST and MIDDLE NAME: Dora the Explorer. But call me Dorydoo.

2. WERE YOU NAMED AFTER ANYONE? Dora the Explorer, the Nickelodeon character. When I was a kitten, I explored everything. Come to think of it, I still do.

3. WHEN DID YOU LAST CRY? I believe I shed a tear or two the last time I found a glitch in my anti-gravity device.

4. DO YOU LIKE YOUR HANDWRITING? Penmanship isn't my strong point. I'm wired for science: my Black Kitty Projects.

5. WHAT IS YOUR FAVOURITE LUNCHMEAT? Brain food! Anything that feeds my mind.

6. RED OR PINK? I'm fond of red. Looks good with my jet black fur.

7. WOULD YOU BE FRIENDS WITH YOU? Definitely! If there were two of me, we could progress on Black Kitty Projects much faster. Maybe cats would have the Milky Way Galaxy colonized by now.

8. DO YOU HAVE A JOURNAL? I wrote a journal entry on Catster when I was tagged for a meme there. And sometimes I talk on this blog.

9. DO YOU USE SARCASM A LOT? Not really, I'm quite straightforward. But I do appreciate a sarcastic sense of humor.

10. WHO DO YOU MISS THE MOST? Isaac Newton (he loved cats). Einstein. Marie Curie. Carl Sagan.

11. WOULD YOU BUNGEE JUMP? Sure! It would be fun. And it would give me a unique opportunity to refine some of my theories about gravity.

12. FAVOURITE CEREAL. Ew. Don't make me barf.

13. DO YOU UNTIE YOUR SHOES WHEN YOU TAKE THEM OFF? Well, if I wore shoes, I probably would. What an odd question.

Tagged: True Kitty Confessions!

My sistur, Marilyn MonREOW, started a meme on her bloggie called True Kitty Confessions where we gotta confess naughty stuff we do. The roolz are to write as many things as we want, any way we wanna write 'em, and tag as many kitties as we want.



And Marilyn thinks I'm gonna have a list as long as War and Peace. (I guess that's a really long bookie.) Well, I'll show her!

1. I taught myself how to open da kitchen kabinet doors. I can get in there and nose around all I want to, and I usually do it when Momma and Daddy are sleepin'.

2. I like to try to shred the shower kurtain.

3. I knock stuff off Momma and Daddy's desks. All kindsa little thingies. Like the motorcycle key, Momma's pens and pencils, all kindsa stuffies, and I bat 'em all over the house and sometimes underneath stuff where Momma and Daddy have gotta fish 'em out.

4. Speaking of fishin', I love fishin' evil coffee stirrers outta Momma and Daddy's coffee muggies which wouldn't be so naughty except sometimes I come close to tippin' the mugs over. My beans keep a close watch on their mugs while they're drinkin' their coffee!

5. I love playin' with the laces on Daddy's boots. I get holda the laces and sometimes I get so nutsy I pull his boot around on the floor. Daddy don't mind, though. He usedta try to stuff the laces down in his boots, but I'd just stuff myself down in his boot and pull the laces out anyways.

6. I like to shred the paper towels close to Momma and Daddy's desks (Marilyn takes care of the paper towels in da kitchen).

7. I jump up on the counter when Momma's cookin'. Sometimes me and Marilyn make an ambush of it -- I come at Momma from one side while Marilyn's coming at her from the other, and we try to do our ambush when Momma's hands are full, givin' us a better chance of gettin' at alla that FOOD. Brainball and Dorydoo are a little more laid back about people food, but Marilyn and me are FOODIEMONSTERS!

8. Unless Momma makes up the bed real tight, I like to wad myself down in the kovers and scratch on the mattress.

9. I like pullin' the drainstops outta the sinks which wouldn't be a big deal except sometimes I get so excited that I knock 'em all the way out and they wind up in some purr-etty funny places, hehehe.

10. I like playin' with my dry foodies -- I knock 'em outta my bowl and bat 'em all over the house, makin' like they're mousies, and eatin' 'em but not always eatin' 'em. Momma doesn't mind much, though, and thanks to me, she gets some extra exercise sweepin'.

11. I love the dishwasher thingie. When Momma's loadin' dishes, I like to get in there and lick them foodie dishes.

12. Every time Momma opens the dryer thingie, I try to get in there, but she won't let me in there, DAGNABBIT!

13. I try to climb the window blinds. Sometimes I break the ends of 'em, and sometimes I pull the whole shebangie down. Oopsie...

14. Sometimes I try to sharpen my claws on the big woofer thingie on Momma and Daddy's speakers.

15. I try to climb Momma and Daddy's legs. Come to think of it, they say OW, MAO! OW, MAO! OW, MAO! a whole lot...

16. I try to climb in the poopie bags when Momma's scoopin' out our boxes.

17. I get down in the trashcans, root around in there, and try to pull interesting-lookin' stuff out.

18. I love watchin' the toilet flushie. I stand on the seat and my head goes round and round and round as I watch the water swish down. Sometimes I lean down and bat at it and try to follow it. Momma and Daddy warn me I'm gonna fall in the toilet if I'm not careful.

19. I try to play with Brainball and Marilyn when they're usin' the litterbox. I don't mess with Dorydoo when she's on her throne though 'cause I know she'll swat me.

20. Lotsa times when Momma opens the fridgerator thingie, I try to get in it.

21. I try to get in Momma and Daddy's plates when they're eatin'.

22. When Momma's givin' Brainball and Marilyn their hairball remmedy, I try to lick it off before they can, hehehe!

23. And when anykitty barfs, I try to eat it.

Nyah nyah, Marilyn! My list ain't as long as no book, after all! Well, not quite as long... Anyhow, my beans are real patient with me, and Momma keeps tellin' my sisturs I'll settle down some when I get more growed up. (hmmmmm, I don't know if I will or not, hehehe!)

I'm wore out from writin' all that, so I'll just tag four kitties (well five, 'cause Mr. Chen and Ollie are two):

Jeter
Yao-lin
Monica
Chen & Ollie
