10.4.12 I Want To Be Alone… I Think
Noël here again. You may be wondering why the last few posts have been so anti-dog. Well Mom left me in charge while she is away on business this week and this is my opportunity to vent. Though we cats have learned to co-exist with those dogs, even tolerate them at times, it is just really hard to understand and accept their very odd animal behavior. I am sure that you can understand. The life of a house cat is so, well, pleasant. And if there wasn’t these yappy smelly balls of energy running around… oh wait, that sounds like I am describing that kitten, Nine, maybe I have to rephrase this …. Nine even loves the dogs and cuddles up to Sofie (meeeeoooowww – how can he?)
Ok, let me start over. When you live in a house with 4 other cats and 2 dogs, it takes a lot of control on my part not to just crawl in a hole to get away from the screaming bunch of them. I would be happy if they all just went away, except for Mommy, I like her. I don’t know if cats were really meant to live in groups. We all are so unique and most of the time would rather be by ourselves than with other animals or even people. Except for some, like Muffin and Nine. Those silly boys love to sit on laps and even lie with other cats. Maybe it is a girl cat thing? Constance Kitty and I would be very happy if we never saw each other, or another animals again. Now baby Stella, I don’t know where she is on that issue yet.
It would be really interesting to be the only animal at the zoo. Life would sure be quiet. But, I wouldn’t get to finish the food that Muffy leaves over… and I wouldn’t have anyone to play with ….. and there probably would be only one litter box instead of 4 (which gives me a super choice)….
OK, they can stay… for now.

10.2.12 New Sheriff In Town
Dogs are stupid! That’s right. You read it here on the blog! Mom should have called this blog CATdaz, not DOGdaz. Have you ever seen what those smelly creatures do? They not only like to eat dinner where we cats go to the bathroom (how gross) but they sniff each other in the rudest places. We cats would never stoop to that!
Then when Mom is not looking, they like to chase after us, when we are just walking along minding our own business, and scare us half to death thinking they are going to kill us. Sometimes, when I am comfy and cozy on the den couch (my new fav spot), the stupid blond one that they call Sooooofie, or something like that, always jumps up and tries to take my spot. The nerve of these flea bags! Since Mom put me in charge this week, I will show those mangy mutts how to be civil while she is gone. There’s a new sheriff in town so watch out! – Yours Truly – Noël

10.1.12 My Mom’s Turned Into A Cat
Peanut posted this picture of Noel on her Facebook before she left to college and the caption read: “I came home and my Mom had turned into a cat!”
It seems like all the animals love to take over my office chair (this is my nice new ergonomic one that I just got recently which has like 500 possible positions (which I do not know how to set)). When Louise was a puppy it was almost impossible to keep her out of my chair, so I had to give her one somewhere else in my office (which she is curled up in and sleeping on right now). Now the cats have taken over. Since about June, Noël doesn’t sleep in the office with me during the day anymore. For years, she slept on my desk under the window in her pink bed (you’ve seen the pictures). But this summer, she has taken to the kitchen window box or the couch in the den (next door to my office), for a more comfortable, less noisy repose I guess. I can get pretty loud on all my conference calls (or so the family tells me) and I walk around constantly (pacing) while I talk. I think it is pretty funny that when Peanut came looking for me that day and found Noël in the driver’s seat, she summed it up really well: “My Mother has turned into a Cat!” Noël wants you to know that she in charge and no one should forget that! Until I return on Friday of course. and ask nicely for my chair back.

9.30.12 Global Reach
The dogs don’t really know what worldwide reach is. Actually, they do not like to travel further than the dog park on the other side of town. But, I know what a very large world we live in. The other day I discovered another level to the statistics page of the WordPress dashboard. It showed me all the places in the world that people have looked at DogDaz blog from. I was over whelmed and over joyed. How amazing to me the internet is. That my little zoo can make it to the homes and hearts of people in so many countries. Thank you all for coming by the zoo and taking a moment of your time to check us out, and many of you for returning time and time again. Last Christmas, my daughter Peanut bought me this really cool world map that you are suppose to scratch off each country that you have been to. Those of you that have read DogDaz for a while know that I travel on business to some wonderful places, yet, there are so many more that I hope to visit someday. Though I may not physically make it around to each land, I know that virtually I have touched the people, which, in many ways, at least to me, is more important. Well, tomorrow I get on a plane once again for the week. So off I go. I am wondering what animal to leave in charge this week? Not Sofie, because all she does is whine and complain and drive everyone insane; Louise is being very anxious and prancey lately, so I worry it would be to stressful for her; Kitty is a hot mess and will just hide under the coffee table all week; Nine is a bully; Muffin can hardly make it up the steps anymore and everyone pushes him around; Stella is too young… I guess by default it comes back to Noël once again. Ok, Noey you are in charge of the blog. Do good posts. I will be watching.
