Sofi’s Blog:  My First Snow!

Sofi’s Blog: My First Snow!

The first time ever:  SNOW!  Whatever that is.  White stuff was falling from the sky, and it had something to do with COLD.  When I put my paws on the window sill, they became very cold.  I also could feel that the window would have been very cold on my nose. This...

Sofi’s Blog: Getting My Grandma’s Attention

Sofi’s Blog: Getting My Grandma’s Attention

One thing I have had to get used to over time is that my Grandma sometimes sits in front of what is called a computer a lot.  Then it becomes difficult to get her attention, and she tells me to be quiet. What, me, Sofi, be quiet? One day about three years ago, not...

Sofi’s Blog:   My Newspapers and I

Sofi’s Blog: My Newspapers and I

Where I used to live more than a year ago, I sat on newspapers under a table my Grandma had in her living room.  I think you humans call it a coffee table. Grandma had to give away that table because where we used to live there was mold in the apartment (see other...

Sofi’s Tale:  Squirrel Time

Sofi’s Tale: Squirrel Time

Where I used to live several years ago, I never saw squirrels. I lived with my Mom in a big city. This was before I came to live with Grandma almost three years ago.  Then at Grandma's first apartment, there were more trees and thus, more squirrels. These squirrels...

Sofi’s Blog: The T-shirt Again!

No, I'm not sleeping peacefully or happily in my new T-shirt. A few months ago while Grandma was gone for a few hours, I lacerated my upper back. Even though I was wearing my small kitty cone. I'm quite a contortionist with my back feet if I have an itch. That time at...

Sofi’s Blog: My Second Set of Stairs

As I am going to be thirteen soon, my leg joints are not what they used to be. I no longer felt safe jumping up onto Grandma's queen size bed. After she fell asleep, and I had finished doing my nocturnal wanderings, I would then want to get up onto grandma's bed to...

Sofi’s Blog:  Why all of the Cones?

Sofi’s Blog: Why all of the Cones?

You've seen me wearing various different kitty cones in these blogs. There is a reason for this. I can't help myself. I itch a lot and I am an obsessive cleaner and licker. You can blame some of that cleaning on my Siamese inheritance; I'm a short hair cat, too.  I...

Sofi’s Blog: Miss Sleeping, Dreaming Beauty- Me

Sofi’s Blog: Miss Sleeping, Dreaming Beauty- Me

Here I am sleeping mid-afternoon, leisurely dangling my back paw off the edge of my tower.  Grandma, who I live with, said that she saw my paw twitch.  This dreaming beauty was probably dreaming about the ONE and ONLY time I went outside for a whole seven to eight...

Sofi’s Blog:  Lucky Me!

Sofi’s Blog: Lucky Me!

At times I try to be a grateful cat- REALLY.  When we moved to our new apartment last year, I got quite a lovely set up!  I have the best (and only large window) in the living room.  All my cat stuff: my steps, my cat tower with the cat teaser toy hanging down from...

Sofi’s Blog: The Fastest Paw in the West, Maybe

Besides my pink fuzzy mouse, who is important in my book Sofi's Tale, which I wrote with my Grandma, Barbara E. Wade, the toy that is the blur in the photo is another favorite of mine. Every day I demand (in a nice way) that Grandma play with me so I can punch, bat...
