C.O.M. Day 5: Meowy Christmas or Psssthhhmas





From Chronicles of Meowarnia


It was been cold and rainy in Hermosa and Meow hasn't really been able to patrol the neighborhood...so I thought. He looked really bored, so I decided to let him open one of his Christmas presents early. He loved the Cat N' Mouse toy. He didn't really like it when I stuck the bow on his neck though.

After downloading the GPS data, it looks like Meow was back to his old tricks, just in a different part of the neighborhood. I won't fall for Meow looking sad because of the rain anymore. He came back all wet with muddy paws.

C.O.M. Day 4: Post Bath Blues

From Chronicles of Meowarnia

Now this is more like it. Mr. Meowsworth stayed much closer to home after his bath. I wonder if there could be a correlation between how clean he is and how far he decides to wander away from home. I may have to run a separate study.

COM Day 3: Living on the Edge

From Chronicles of Meowarnia


Remember when your mom used to make you hold her hand to cross the street? I remember thinking that I would never get hit by a car and that my mom was over reacting. Just leave me be, I can take care of myself. When I have kids one day, I will never make the suffer through that humiliation.

Wrong.

Today Meow ventured much further than I thought he would. His path looks like he B-lined straight for Bard Street and played with some of his friends and then headed straight to Ralph's while crossing one of the busiest intersections on PCH. Why in the world would he want to go East of PCH? He came back the dirtiest I ever saw him. Who's the bad boy? You are Mr. Meow. Who's getting a bath tonight? That's right, you are, bad kitty.

Chronicles of Meowarnia: Day 2




From Chronicles of Meowarnia


I get home from work and I'm wondering where Mr. Meowsworth is because he didn't greet me at the door like he usually does. About a half an hour later, he shows up and I pick him up and cradle him like a big fuzzy baby. I notice his belly is all green and he smells like freshly cut grass. There are about 3 lawns in all of Hermosa so I'm wondering where he was all day. His paws are filthy and he has a guilty look on his face. I grab his GPS and download the information.

Mr. Meowsworth wasn't always Mr. Meowsworth, he was Mickey. He tells his story in his words on his MySpace page. After I renamed him to Mr. Meowsworth (AKA Meow, Meowmeow, Kitty-reow, Professor Chow Chow, Mitta Meow, Big Boy, Chairman Meow), he was pretty much my cat. That was 4 years ago and I've moved three times since then. The surprising thing to me is that Meow still knows how to get back the Bard Street 4 years later. He loves eating tomatoes and a lady used to have a little garden two houses down. My bet is that he's stealing tomatoes and hiding them for the winter.

His green belly came from laying in the grass at Clark Stadium. His GPS shows him running around in the field. I also used to catch him and his other kitty friends having meetings there. By meetings, I mean about 6 cats would sit around in a circle staring at each other. I guess that's what you need for a quorum in kitty politics or kolitics.

I broke down and ordered a digital camera that I can strap to his neck that will take digital pictures every 30 seconds. Apparently, the owner of Mr. Lee has the same kitty curiosity. The camera arrives next week. More to come on the Chronicles of Meowarnia...

The Chronicles of Meowarnia

Last week Mr. Meowsworth's best friend, Dusty, was ran over by a car. Meow and Dusty used to go off on little adventures together for hours. I got home that day and Meow was nowhere to be found. He didn't even come home till 9 that night. Being the worried parent I am, I had to find out where he was. I started looking online and came across Mr. Lee's CatTraq and thought that was brilliant. I found the same thing, but with Bluetooth called I-GotU. I attached the device to Meow thinking that he only hangs out close to home. I was wrong.
