Somebody is Toying With Me

AMARULA: Dearest readers, as you know I am not one to complain. Far be it for me to cast aspersions on the integrity of a fellow feline but, alas, I feel I have no choice. You will remember that last week I produced compelling (and horrifying) images of Frodo and Zulu playing in my secret […]

My Bathtub’s Dirty Secret!

AMARULA: Many of you may not realize just how much I suffer since Frodo has been added to our feline trio. Being pounced on indiscriminately, my favorite box-of-solitude being appropriated and my privacy in the litter box now a forgotten luxury…..   Yes, Frodo’s crimes are legion and now he is stealing my toys! I […]

The Idiot Box

Clearly jealous of our good looks and sparkling personalities, she refused to acknowledge our existence, so my brother and I had to learn some basic life lessons all on our own. But, […]

Introducing Frodo the Kitten!

  FRODO: As you may have guessed from Amarula’s last post, I have recently arrived to make mom’s feline duo a trio! I’m very excited to be here! Zulu is making me feel very welcome. I think mom was right that since Biltong’s death he has really been missing having a fellow feline to cuddle […]
