The Old One and Tobey

When Tobey was a kitten Miss Texas tried to bully him as she had done with a past cat named Tim. But Tobey was able to give back more. He tired her out. She's not the young girl-cat she was when she was bullying Tim. She jumped on the Tobey bandwagon. They have been BFF.

Tobey's #1 Love is...

It's a toss-up! It has to be either sleeping or clean laundry. A combination of both maybe!

A whole website can be built on pictures of Tobey sleeping and Tobey sleeping in the dryer, laundry basket, pile of clean laundry. He has slept on dirty laundry, but he doesn't get a refreshing sleep as when he slumbers on clean laundry.

Prissy

Tobey was once betrothed to a cute gray kitten called Priscilla, Prissy for short.

He loved her. She loved him. See how cuddly they are. Prissy was one of the kittens Bill and Kitty took care of for a neighbor. The other cat was Badtz. Bill and Kitty couldn't adopt both kitties. Badtz, was the pick of the litter. Poor Tobey. He is stuck with bad catz Badtz.

The Many Loves of Tobey

This week we'll feature the many loves of Tobey.

Tobey was very close to Bill and Kitty's old Golden Retriever, Kayla. Tobey enjoyed rubbing his head on Kayla's paws after she came home from a walk. She was his virtual outdoors.

He was deeply sadden the night Kayla died. He stood in the dinning room watching her fade away.

Outside with the Vivester

Vive loves walking at a local park. She runs ahead of Bill and runs back to when he calls her. She gets 4 times the exercise than the human! That's okay because Vive has 12 times the energy of any human.

What are they looking at?

Miss Texas and Tobey watch Vive scratch the back door to go outside. There is always some kind of commotion going on in the house.

Tobey gets some love

He loves his daddy! Tobey is quite pleased to spend time with Bill and so is Kitty since Bill is a much better influence than the Gnome.

Badtz may be the softest, but Tobey is the sweetest. He spends time making sure Miss Texas is comfortable and with companionship. He does the same with us all. What a nice cat (as long as he stays away from the Gnome).

Badtz at Play

Now that Badtz doesn't have a job to go to everyday like Bill ad Kitty, she can stay home and play.

Play, play, play, all day long!

In One Day, Out Another

So guess who was sleeping in today? Kitty had to call the Holiday Inn Express to tell them that Badtz was going to be a little late. Kitty was surprised to hear that Badtz was let go Jan 5! She could only make one bed a day and distracted the other housekeepers. Instead of cleaning the rooms and making the beds, they all played with her. She's so cute and soft! No wonder she was only able to make one bed a day!

The Gnome

We've definitely noticed the influence of the neighborhood gnome on Tobey. Tobey has become more of a loner. A bit more bossy towards Badtz and more a tad more destructive in the house. Scratching the couch, the dryer door...

Not Yet Dry

Kitty got home to a little battle between the two young cats. Tobey wouldn't get out of the dryer. Badtz wanted to practice doing the laundry. She wanted to hone her housekeeping skills. Kitty was impressed until Bill told her she didn't go to work today.

Tobey was able to go back to sleep in the dryer.

First Day of Work

Here's Badtz making sure we packed extra kibble in her lunch. Bill will drop her off at the Holiday Inn Express and Kitty will pick her up after her shift is over.

We can't wait to hear how her day went. She'll probably be too pooped to describe it.
