First trip outside

I had my first visit to The Outside today! I don't mean the bad bit of The Outside which involves being shoved into the PTU and taken to the vet, I mean the good bit where you get to smell the outside smells and you're not in the PTU!

Jasmine got me a nice harness when I first came to live with her last year, but as I was quite sick for a long time, she didn't let me go to The Outside other than to see the vet. I was furry small when I first met Jasmine, so she had bought a furry small harness. When she pulled it out tonight, she was worried that it wasn't going to fit anymore because, well, um, there's a little more of me to love now.

Jasmine adjusted all the straps and we gave it a go. It *just* fits now. I'm glad it fits because it's furry pretty. The harness looks like black velveteen, which is nice because it's sophisticated, but also comfortable. The black velveteen is highlighted with a furry pretty silver sparkly stripe. Furry stylish, and it goes well with my grey furs.

BTW, when I say this is my first trip to The Outside, I actually mean my first trip since the start of my new life, which is since I was rescued by the SPCA and nursed back to health by Jasmine. You can read about my story here and here.

We didn't go furry far at all. In fact, we only went onto the balcony. I have been furry curious about the balcony since Jasmine and Peter started using it recently (now that the weather is nice). I mostly just sat underneath Jasmine's chair and rolled around on my back. I like to roll around on my back when the weather is warm.

Chomping the Cookie

Last year I introduced you to my friend Mr Cookie. He is a good friend, but sometimes I just can't resist chomping him. In fact, I have this reaction to many things.

I wonder if this is why Jasmine sometimes calls me Little Miss Chompy?

Claw trimming

Jasmine and Peter clipped my claws the other day. I was not furry happy about this. I know they only clipped the very end pointy bit, but I'm still not furry happy about it.

Beans should never go away

My beans went away for a few days. One of their friends came over to give me foods and water and pats. He likes poodins and he was nice to me, but it's nice to have my beans back. I miaowed and miaowed at them the second they walked in the door. I was telling them I'd prefer it if they never went away!

In other news, I've been thinking for a while that I should update my profile picture. The one I've been using is from the first day I came to be fostered by Jasmine. That was a while ago and I've grown up a bit since then.

Catbook, it's like Facebook, but for us kitties

Are any of your beans into Facebook? If so, you should tell them about Catbook. It's a Facebook app for us kitties. It's cool because we can create our own kitty profile and link to other kitty friends on Catbook.

I have my very own Catbook profile here: Ashley's Catbook Profile. If you are in Catbook too, I'd love to hear from you and add you to my friend list!

Purrs,

Real live dead crabs

I'm sorry I've been gone from the internet for so long. It is, of course, entirely Jasmine's fault!! She has been neglecting her own blog as well, so I guess that makes it slightly less bad.

So, I'm still here. Still doing my best not to get adopted so that Jasmine fosters me forever. :)

Tonight I did something which Jasmine thought was furry strange. Jasmine and Peter were chomping crabs for dinner tonight. Real live dead crabs they picked up at a fish market this weekend. I was furry interested in this new dinner, so Jasmine picked off some crabby bits and put them in my food bowl. I raced over to the food bowl, sniffed a bit, then walked away! Jasmine thought this was furry strange indeed!
