Did ya'll think we had died and gone to kitty heaven? Well, we're not ready for that yet -- though we do hear that they serve that new kind of Fancy Feast -- the gourment blends -- up in heaven. JJ got us some when she had a Q-pond and we liked that stuff, I can tell you. JJ said we would all have to get jobs if we wanted to eat that everyday.

We said, "what do you mean GET jobs? We already HAVE jobs!!!" Big Lucky's job is surveying his acreage (which is about to change). Mr. Spooky's job is getting spooked by everything. Jinx(sh)'s job is house mother. Oregano's job (me) is cat journalist and JJ Jester (and love machine). Melody's job is, uh, uh, thinking the rules don't apply to her. Tita's job is catching and eating all of the moths and flying bugs that come in the house. Achilles' job is personal trainer -- he keeps the rest of us in shape by chasing us around the house. You should SEE how I lay my ears back flat on my head and growl at him. He is scared I can tell you (NOT - darn it).

We have not been able to write a lot lately because we have been helping JJ pack. When she is home that is. We think she is going to the new house on M Street. We know what color the walls are going to be because we have seen the back of JJ's work shorts!! Ha Ha!! She is really messy when it comes to paint. JJ says she has been using all kinds of tools and learning new things -- like how to patch drywall. What is drywall anyway? All of the walls in our house are dry. Except when Spooky sprays them (oops, family secret, wasn't supposed to tell about Spooky spraying -- or about "somebody" peeing on the stove -- you know what JJ did about that? She bought some smelly things and put them right on the stove and "somebody" doesn't like the smell and won't go near them -- and neither will any of the rest of us)!

JJ has been spending time with the rosso biciletta, too -- though not as much as she would like (she says). She is collecting $$$ for Multiple Schlerosis riding the rosso bicicletta. Some of the friends have Multiple Schlerosis and she wants to help them out by raising money for a cure to be found. So, all of you who enjoy The Kitty Report need to give JJ a dollar or two for the Tour to Tanglewood Start to Finish MS ride!

I think I have to go. I just heard the doorbell. When the doorbell rings, JJ only has one cat -- Achilles -- because he is the only one that doesn't "disappear" when strangers come to the house.

Cheers!! Oregano
