MaggieMoose: How To Spell C-O-Z-Y ...Meow

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

"It's the best feeling when you wake up and it's warm and cozy, and you don't have to go to work."

Emmy Rossum

  Maggie's friend Cleo the cat knows how to be warm and cozy. She borrows her mum's pillow! Maggie think's that's a green move. First, get the heat after the human leaves the bed. And second, lay on her fluffy head rest. Sustainability in the animal kingdom. Or the cat world. Cleo knows she doesn't have to go to work. Why not get warm & cozy? Entitlement. "I will lay here." Meow. 

Maggie has quite a few cozy spots around the house. She has cozy beds (2), her spot next to me on my bed and her crate. The bed is the spot she prefers. Right next to me. I feel the heat. All of a sudden there's a hot spot either next to me or on me. Sustainability in the dog world. "May I lay next to you?" Today is Friday. The weekend is upon us. We will be getting warm and cozy. Count on us sleeping in to make up for that 1 hour we lost last weekend. Maggie is ready. She has a fleece for every season. So what if it's almost Spring? She can sleep on her cozy from winter. We reuse. A cozy is a cozy is a cozy. Ask Cleo. She might get to cozy up to her human this weekend. We can hear Cleo's purrs now.  All warm and cozy with sustainability of the human-cat kind. Meow.

Roses With A WOOF WOOF & MEOW: Happy New Years!

2013 Rose Parade float closeup

  Maggie's sibling Julie is in southern CA for the 124th Rose Bowl Parade and for the Rose Bowl Game. Our local Stanford University football team is playing the Wisconsin football team. At 6:12 am PST Julie sent me the photo of the Rose Bowl float: two dogs with the red scarf that says ADOPT ME. Beautiful! Maggie was beside herself with a big WOOF WOOF! We have no details about the float, for I image Julie's in the throes holding her spot to view the parade. Another photo showed up a little bit later: all the animals on the float! For our feline friends we give a big MEOW!

Big picture!

Then after the all the parade floats go by we have two words for the game: 

GO STANFORD!!!

Cattitude Of Que Sera Sera

Maggie's pawsability thought for the day:

"Cats seem to go on the principle that it never does any harm to ask for what you want."

Joseph Wood Krutch

  Maggie and I learned a new word the other day: cattitude. Thank you Animalcouriers for enlightening us with this new word for our vocabulary. We came across some cool cats that seem to fit this word. There was a tortoise shell cat who hugged the ground looking indifferent. We could tell he was waiting for his chance to bolt through the door with the sign on it that said "Keep The Cats Out". 

Then we came across the cat in the middle of the brick road. He sat there almost daring us to beg him to come to us. Was this cattitude? Silently asking for what you want?

The pretty kitty on the picnic table edge wouldn't look at us directly. She seemed to want us to pet her and we obliged. Alas, she didn't want the "face to face" eye contact. The best we got from her was her eyes opened looking downward. Cats with cattitude are very different than dogs with their "please, please, please-you can't resist my puppy dog eyes" look. We enjoyed the diversity of cats with cattitude. Maggie thinks these cool cats are really thinking "que sera sera, whatever will be will be...." I agree, cats with cattitude have that attitude it doesn't do any harm to ask for what you want. If you don't get it, que sera sera. Meow.
