miss me?

I know you’re all missing me, so I just wanted to let you know that I’m still here and I’ll be back to work and blogging again soon.  My human has been a bit under the weather, so I’ve been busy taking care of her.  You know – grooming her feet, waking her up every hour to make sure she’s comfy, etc.  Don’t fret about her, though.  I googled her symptoms, and it appears to just be a case of ebola.  Or perhaps a little flu bug.  She’ll be back to taking mediocre photos of the fabulous Pedro the Cat any minute now!

the end of my slump

I have to admit that I’m in a bit of a slump. My blossoming career has been blossoming more slowly than molasses. I’ve had a touch of writer’s block, so my manuscript is blossoming more slowly than my career. And honestly, I’ve been spending most of my time just acting like a silly housecat. I do enjoy the stress-free living, but I have to admit that it leaves me short on material for blogging. So, today I visited the site of the master feline blogger, Maru-san. And I saw something there that really fascinated me, and then brought me back to the original reason I began blogging and pursuing fame and fortune: Maru is just a cat. He never runs out of material or inspiration because he’s just acting like a cat.  And yet, everyone loves Maru.  And there is my inspiration:  whether I am a fabulous businesscat or a silly housecat, people love me just the way I am.  So today I am just a silly housecat, playing with my favorite pink feathery toy…  After I finish a chapter of my manuscript about my complex friendship and working relationship with Kitty, that is.

really, review of my cat???

Do I look as cranky as I feel?

A few days ago I finally gave up on the editors of Review Of My Cat  and self-published a review of myself.  The editors had clearly retired from the business of cat reviews, as they hadn’t published a new one in almost 2 months…

Just days after my self-review was posted, Review of My Cat began publishing new reviews of mediocre housecats.  And since they have returned from their “hiatus”, they have not yet published the review I submitted to them in April.  Hmph!
