My morning ritual: Wake mamma up five minutes before her alarm, at 5:10am.

Pat-pat-pat her cheek with my paw. Purrpurrpurr meaning, "WAKE UP!".

Cuddle until 5:30.

Then, I follow her into the bathroom and wait for her on the comfy floor mat while she showers, dresses, puts on her make up, brushes her teeth... all the while getting pets on the top of my head each time she passes me ...

Follow her into the kitchen while she makes herself a cup of coffee, and patiently wait for her to be done so she can make me 'n Stivali breakfast. Mmmmm...

Eat breakfast - 7am - and take my two pills (heart pill and diuretic).

Soon after breakfast, I fall back asleep, and my sister, Stivali, stays by my side.

Purr purr purr.

Meaning: happy happy happy.

My Facebook Profile Has Been Deactivated

My mamma has been on FB for about 8 years.

She created a profile for me a few months ago.

There are lots of animal profile pages out there.

Either someone reported us, or the fact that I gained 400 Facebook friends in such a short time, most of whom I have never even met, caused an alarm to go off somewhere in Facebook land.

If you SEARCH in Facebook, there are other users with the name "Stray Cat" - and they pose as HUMANS. I am a cat, and I wasn't posing as anything other than that - and Stray Cat is my REAL name.

Facebook asked for an authenticity check of my name - I assured them it is a real name - and so, I wait, patiently, for them to reactivate my profile. If it has to be made in to a PAGE rather than a PROFILE, mamma and I are fine with that... but for now, I must get out my writing impulses with my new blog.

Meow!
