Desi The Kitty Checks Out The Pyramids In Egypt!

Desi is an adorable little girl kitty and she’s very shy.  She’s a city kitty and lives with her brother Holden in New York and they have fun with their mommy Lacey.  Desi can see the Freedom Tower from her window which is one of the biggest and newest skyscrapers in the world – a true modern landmark.

Desi got to thinking how cool it would be to see one of the greatest modern landmarks AND one of the most ancient landmarks, so where better to see some than the pyramids in Egypt!  According to Wikipedia which, you know – all knowledge flows from (hehe) the earliest pyramids were built over 4 THOUSAND years ago and some are considered to be among the oldest monumental structures in the world!  She decided on the Giza pyramids just outside of Cairo.

Desi is only a year old but she has been on a plane a couple times already back and forth from New York to Michigan so she was prepared for this trip, although 16 hours is a bit longer than…..1.  That was long.

When she got there though she was so excited – and what a spectacular sight!  She reflected on the vastness of time between the 1792 foot tower she sees from her window every day and the 481 foot Great Pyramid!

But wait……………….what?

Desi got a huge surprise when she saw a pyramid that kinda looked like……a CAT!  But this cat looked like it had a human head and that’s when she found out what a Sphinx is.  Desi felt totally connected to the ancient world.  How cool!  She had to have a picture with this Sphinx and Holden was blown away when she showed it to him when she got back to New York.  This turned out to be the petcation of a lifetime!

Fiona Goes For A Hike In An Enchanted Forest!

Fiona the kitty cat (who also goes by “Floof”, “Floofy” or “Floofen”) had heard about a namesake of hers who was a princess in an enchanted forest.  Fiona is a “little baby” and a very sweet little kitty who loves to have her back scratched – actually she demands it be scratched if anyone sits on the couch in her family room.  She’ll come running from anywhere in the house if she hears someone sit, so everyone just knows that’s the deal.
Meanwhile she wanted to see what the forest was like and if she would be a princess there too if she went, so Doug, Ally, Lacey and Tony sent her to the enchanted forest.  Floofy packed a little backpack with supplies to take for the hike – she did her research – and she wanted to make sure she had some treats and water with her, along with a little first aid kit.  Smart kitty.
When she got to the forest it was beautiful!  The sun was rising and there was a little wood pathway which was perfect for a photo op!  She looks so happy!  There wasn’t anyone around but being in such a majestic place with nothing but the sounds of nature all around made her feel like a princess just the same… She took it all in, got some good exercise and returned home where she was right back in the family room for more back scratches.  Happy to be back, but this was certainly a petcation she’ll never forget.

Holden the cat snuggling with a lion

Holden Meets Up With A King Cousin in Africa!

Holden Meets Up With A King Cousin In Africa!

Holden is a very active young kitty. He likes to run around a lot and make friends. He had heard about Africa and that it was really big so he could run and run and run as much as he wants! The other thing that intrigued him was that a lot of other cats lived there – and that some of them were royalty! Like maybe he was related to a KING perhaps. Holden did a little Googling and found that as many as 15,000 of these King cousins live in the Serengeti in Tanzania so he made that his destination.

With three stops and a couple of layovers this trip took about 30 hours… Holden hadn’t really thought about that and he was exhausted when he finally made it, but the good news is that lions spend a lot of time napping so when he finally found a King cousin he was sleeping! Holden crashed hard. But it was worth it, and he snuggled right in to his newfound cousin using his paw as a pillow!!! What an experience for him! He really enjoyed himself.

Leo the Cat goes to NY

Leo Heads to the Big Apple!

Leo Heads To The Big Apple!

Leo has a BIG personality.  He tends to be the alpha in his home and he’s even a little crazy.  Sometimes he communicates with his teeth and gets a tad bit “bitey” shall we say…  but he loves to have conversations – literally meowing conversationally.  He greets you at the door when you get home with a couple meows and gives you his belly.  Just watch out – HE decides when he’s done giving you his belly.  He likes to sit on laps and watch TV – this cool cat has a lot going on.
He figured New York was the city that might be able to handle him since it’s so huge, because he brings so much personality to the table.  He doesn’t have the small town kitty vibe at all and if he was going to go on a petcation he wanted to go to a place where if he could make it there he could make it anywhere.  He found a nice spot across the river where he could get a good view of the skyline while he was there, hopped up on a random yellow chair and smiled a big smile for this photo to remember his trip.  Leo got his bite of the Big Apple alright!  Check him out!

Tucker goes to the beach

Tucker The Cat Goes To The Beach!

Tucker The Cat Goes To The Beach!

Tucker is a good boy. He’s a bit of a scaredy cat but he’s very cute and lovable. The pandemic has provided a silver lining for Tucker and that’s discovering his love of Zoom. His parents Doug & Ally have had plenty of zooms at home and Tucky (as he’s often called) likes to join. He keeps to himself a lot but sometimes he does indeed get cuddly, and he drools when he purrs which is hilarious.

Meanwhile Tucker decided recently to get away, and his top choice for a vacay was the beach. Who knew? Good for him though – the winter in Michigan has been brutal this year so a little sun was the purrrfect remedy. Not to mention he can still zoom while he’s chilling on the beach so he staked out a nice deserted spot, put up an umbrella, brought his laptop and cool beach towel and he’s currently living his best life.

Cheers to Tucker.
