TLC and I had a big play out in the alfalfa field
It was lots of fun
We had Run
Play
Sniff
This was while we were on a walk with Mom.
Dry dirt is just the best!!!
BUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Mom heard another big storm is heading back in here
NO!
No more this
Or This
Or ANYTHING Like THIS
We want the farming season to begin,
which means DRY!
So, we can PLAY!!
TLC and Boo Berry
Oh, the wonder of MARCH!
The snow did a big melt
The wind helped
And the warmer temperatures
TLC stayed outside the whole day through
Me?
I Stayed with Mom
Mom is my job
TLC says his job is the farm
We both say
(See me in the window and TLC trying to get in?)
Yay! It’s March!
Mom says careful kids, March is tricky
We can still get lots of snow
Or rain
Or something.
For sure she says we will get
WIND!
We don’t care…
It’s March
And the ground is mostly dry!
Boo Berry and TLC
The wind came. (see my ruffled fur)
And the slick ice
and the mud
And then another round of snow
Then more wind. (See the wind in our hair)
Mom says it’s the end of February and all this won’t last. She says it will probably be here until the middle of March, and it will just go away!
We sure hope mom is right.

If I were a human
I would be 24 years of age
I would dress the part (which I do)
I would have a fast car (I have fast paws)
And I be out of college (or on to grad school)
I would have the world by the tail.
Well, I am a cat
I dress the part of a very handsome fellow each and every day of my kitty life
I have fast paws—VERY FAST
I can climb any tree and walk any fence—I am a cool cat
I even trip up Boo Berry as she walks by and
tumble her like a leaf.
She jumps up and gives me a hurt look, but I laugh and run off
I am TLC Cai-Cai—the Kitty of the FARM!!
TLC Cai-Cai
Oh
Yes
I
Can!
Sometimes RUN FAST! EVER SO FAST!
You have to be
FAST
Because we have
A HAWK
That lives around here.
TLC Cai-Cai
This is my birth month.
Mom doesn’t know the exact day
And neither do I.
We just know that the vet said I was probably born
Around the first of the month of January,
Give or take.
So Mom always says HAPPY BIRTHDAY on the First Friday of the Month of January.
That works for me!
And for Mom.
So here I am TWO YEARS OLD
And King of the family!
(Don’t I look like a king? 😊 )
Beautiful, wonderful, Darling, Mom always says to me!
TLC Cai-Cai
The year is going fast, faster, fastest now.
Each day is getting closer to the end
Then we will begin again.
What a year it has been!
“I got a new home,” Boo Berry Betty Brown
“I got a new sister,” TLC Cai-Cai
And Mom and Dad got to have TWO fur kids!
YAY!
Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai
It’s been super cold here.
Like almost Zero cold
We don’t like going outside.
But we do. (Business to take care of, you do understand)
Sometimes we go with Mom
Sometimes we run out the door with Dad
But
Mostly we stay inside by the fire
Just say’n.
Oh! Yes! It’s almost Christmas!
Merry Christmas from Boo Berry Betty and TLC Cai-Cai
I’ve been here since June.
It’s taken me a while to understand what I am supposed to do
Before it was: be pregnant, then meet the boy, then be pregnant again.
Now THAT is finished and done with.
So—here is my New purpose in life—
Guard Mom and Dad and sometimes TLC Cai-Cai. (Just sometimes)
I follow Mom everywhere!
And I do mean EVERYWHERE!
I growl at the door when something or someone strange is there
I’ve learned to help put up the chickens — only when Mom tells me too
And I have enjoyed immensely going on walks with Mom.
I have grown to the place I can go outside by myself for a short while. Not long I get worried about Mom and the house, and my soft beds.
But Still.
I haven’t learned how to sit on a lap and relax yet, but I do like to ride on Mom’s lap in the truck and look outside.
Oh! Yes! And I love going in my little blue box for rides on the four-wheeler.
Mom says I am getting better and better about learning how to
Just be a dog!
YAY! ME!
Boo Berry Brown
You might think a cat’s purpose
Is to sit on your lap and purr.
Nope.
Not my purpose.
I only sit on Mom’s lap WHEN I WANT TOO
If she picks me up
I jump right back down.
Now if I JUMP up,
then YES,
I will sit there and let her pet me and I will purr.
For me
My Purpose
Is to protect the farm
And I take it very seriously
I travel here
And there
And all over.
After all—
The dog just stays in the house
Unless she is with Mom.
Just Say’n,
TLC Cai-Cai
