Update

Dear Pablo and fan club members,

Phoebe and I have once again been prevented from blogging by the escapades of Tracy and Denis. They keep going out and leaving us for hours on end. They spend a LOT of time at That House (the one that smells like an unhygienic cat). Phoebe and I looked over the contracts quite thoroughly. We voiced our concerns about buying a house with another cat's scent in it, but they didn't listen to the voice of wisdom.
Here is Denis signing the contract. It is official, we are going through with the purchase.

Some of our friends have been a bit confused about this territory expansion. Just to clarify, we are not moving into That House. We are staying right here. We are buying this land so that we have more room to explore. We will own Grandma's house as well as That House. Phoebe and I don't think that we should have any people live there. People tend to make trouble. Here is a picture of what the layout is.
The yellow house is our house. The green one is Grandma's and the grey one way at the end is That House.

In other news, our new cat litter box is working out quite well. Tracy seems to be doing a better job of keeping it tidy.

We were very saddened to learn today upon our return to our blog that club member Anastasia went missing one week ago and seems to have gone on to the Bridge. Anastasia was a classy girl and very stylish. The Pablo Fan Club will be a bit lonelier without her.

We have had lots of new friends stop by the Pablo Fan Club in the last month. We are way behind in confirming them as official Fan Club members. I will see to it that I do that in the next few days.

D-O-G-S

Dear Pablo,

This is one of our neighbors. I am showing his picture because I saw him today. He lives next door to us with another dog. The other one has a pushed in nose and he wheezes all the time. This one is very noisy - he likes to bark and bark at me when I go for a stroll in the backyard. I like to lay down and watch him. He's very funny because he gets all worked up and he can't get to me because dogs can't climb fences! Ha ha.

In the front yard we have a wooden fence and another dog lives on the other side. She is a funny little dog. I don't have a picture of her, but she is very small. None of my neighbor dogs are very scary. They are not so big like Jake, Jazz and Sherman.

Pablo, today was the first time that I have gotten to go Outside in over a week! I have been stuck in here and Tracy hasn't even been home very much. She has been leaving in the morning and sometimes not coming home until the night when it is dark outside. It's been kind of boring around here. Well, anyway, she has been home most of today and we celebrated by going Outside. I hope tomorrow will be the same...

Litter Box development

Dear Pablo and fan club members,

I am very excited to show you what I bought the other day. This is a special cat litter try made especially for our new twig-style cat litter Phoebe mentioned in a previous post. See, there are really two trays there. The top one keeps the twigs in it and the bottom one collects the saw dust. This will keep our toilet facilities much nicer. It will also keep the sawdust cleaner. Since it goes into our compost pile that is important. You can read more about it at their website.

I also bought this special scooper that has big holes to let the twigs go through it. We need to keep things as simple as possible for Tracy because she is not so great at keeping our facilities in tip-top shape, if you know what I mean.

New Territory

Dear Pablo and fan club members,

I must tell you what happened to me today! Tracy and I went out for a walk, which started out just fine. I nibbled on some grass and was just getting into the business of monitoring the grounds. But then Tracy picked me up and took me to Grandma's house. We went in to visit for a while. I thought that was kind of a dirty trick to make me stay INSIDE when i thought we were going for a walk. From there, things went even downhill. Next, Grandma and Tracy got the bright idea to show me the inside of our new house that we are buying. I was not too keen on that idea to start with. I thought maybe the people that had that big red monster machine might still be in there. The screen door is very NOISY also.

We had only taken one step into the place when I could tell that a cat had been living there. It was a cat with poor hygeine habits! I don't know what that cat was thinking. Didn't they have a proper litter box? I started howling my distaste for the place right away and Tracy got the hint. We went back outside and I wanted to RUN back home, but Tracy is SO SLOW.

I told her that the deal is off, we should not buy that house at all. She says that what we will do is take out the carpet where the cat did its business and things should smell much better after that. Once my head cleared up a bit, I guess that might work. We will have to see...

Tracy felt so bad about my bad experience in that house that she took me Outside this evening at 9:00 PM. It is very different and exciting Outside at night. There were some fluttery bugs that I tried to catch. I had a nibble of some grass. Now I feel much better about the whole situation.

Very busy around here

Dear Pablo and fan club members,

A lot of our friends have been asking where we have been. We have definitely been very neglectful of our fan club chairfeline duties. But there have been lots of negotiations and business going on at the Pablo Fan Club Headquarters that we have been attending to. Monica and I have been overseeing the negotiations for Tracy and Denis these last two weeks. Here is a rundown:

Firstly, Tracy is on the committee that plans the annual American Diabetes Association fund-raising walk. She bring home some assignments sometimes and Monica and I help her with them. This time, we were filling these bags with information about how to sign up a team to walk.
This is a very important cause because Diabetes is a disease that is really growing in the United States and around the world. The American Diabetes Association helps fund research about diabetes treatment, fights to protect the rights of people with Diabetes and educates people about it too. Grandma has Diabetes and Tracy teaches people about it each day at her job, so it is important to us.

Tracy is going to walk. I asked her if I could go on my harness, but she told me that D-O-G's go on the walk. I guess maybe I'll stay home and keep Denis company. If you would like to contribute to Tracy's fund-raising, you can go here.

The other business at hand is an expansion of the Pablo Fan Club Headquarters. We are purchasing the land that my Grandma lives on. As you may remember, she lives right next door to us. That land belongs to Tracy's brother who moved away. We are buying it so that Monica and I can explore it completely without tresspassing. (we explored it before, but now we will be completely within our rights as owners, you see...) Monica has been studying the paperwork for this sale. Tracy and Denis keep asking other people to look at the papers, too, as if Monica's opinion wasn't enough!

We will keep you all posted about the developments.

Some Pictures

Dear Pablo and fan club members,

I would like to tell you a little bit about what Monica and I did while Tracy and Denis were gone on their vacation. Firstly, I was right about that nice girl. She did come and stay with us, but not every night. She visited every day for awhile and took me Outside each day. We left my harness on again so that it would be easy for us to go for walks. She stayed overnight twice and watched TV with us. We tried to use the computer, but the screen when blank. Monica thought that she could fix it, but it didn't work.

After a LONG time of that arrangement, Grandma came by one day and took me for a walk and we accidentally wound up at her house. Monica came over too and we stayed at Grandma's for another LONG time. It was a little confusing, but I was glad to have Grandma's shoes to sniff anyway.

Thanks for everyone who teleported over to keep us company. It was nice because we were by ourselves a lot of the time.

Now that Tracy is back, she told me all about her trip. I found some interesting pictures. Some of them are quite scary so look at them at your own risk!

This one is not scary at all. I would like to meet that little guy and play a game of tag with him. I think that I would win and he might make an interesting meal.
Now this one is a little bit scary. These are some large birds which may be vishus. They have a big nest and they are up high where they can swoop down and grab some cats right off of the ground.

This one is even scarier. Look at those big horns that he has. He could spear a cat with those things. He look very much like a vishus deer but with more dangerous horns on his head.

Here is the scariest one of all. He is very very big and vishus. Tracy said that he can jump right over that fence if he wants to and trample you. She and Denis stayed in their car.

With all those dangerous, vishus animals around, I'm amazed that they made it home alive! They are very brave (or else they are not very smart... that is a possiblity.)

We're Back!



Dear Pablo and fan club members,

Phoebe and I are finally back at our own home with Tracy and Denis in their proper places. As you can see in this series of photos, that place is on the couch petting me. I have really missed all of you my friends. I have a lot of catching up to do.

Firstly, Pablo has nominated me as a top notch schmoozer. I have to research what cats have been nominated and put my mind to whom I may nominate as well. I can consult with Phoebe on that, since Pablo nominated her as well. We also have a meme to complete that Pabs tagged us for.

For now, I'm content to be kneading a soft pillow while lounging on top of Tracy. I've had to look at all her pictures that she took on her trip a couple of times now. They are mostly of different people and mountains. Kind of boring. Here is the most interesting one that she took as far as I can tell.
