The Scratching Post
September 2025

Hello everyone!
We hope you’re all ready for the fall/autumn months! They’re almost here. It’s Mom’s favorite time of year. It’s when all the hot-ness that everyone hates finally goes away (hopefully). Well, or the cold (depending on where you live). The leaves (might) change color and be pretty.

But then that means some of the critters might not be coming around in a few months…and that makes us sad. We need our prime time entertainment!

We have had lots and lots of water fall from the sky lately. It made a huge puddle in the backyard. Before the rain, Stetson (the little orange freeloader…we mean kitty) was visiting. Well, after the puddle formed, Mom said he was “trapped” and couldn’t go home. So he slept over at our house for two whole days! He went home when the puddle disappeared. It was actually kinda fun having him over this time. He likes to play a lot! We played chase a lot. We played with mousies and balls. We all took naps. Him and Carlito wrestle really rough. He’s the only one who will play with Carlito. The rest of us think Carlito is kinda intimidating because he is so humongous! We mean, like, he’s got a gigantic head. When he is running towards you, it’s like a semi coming your way. It was fun. It was sad when Stetson left. But he was back the next day to eat our food! He always comes back.

Mom got that Lasik eye stuff done to her face last month. Even though she couldn’t see good for awhile…we still couldn’t get away with anything! She caught us every time we were being naughty! Even when she’s blind she knows what we’re up to (MOL). We need to be quieter. We are not very good cat burglars! We are not good at being sneaky at all!

Well, that’s the stories for now. There will be more next time. Who knows what other random, weird things will happen. By then it’s going to be Halloween-y time. Those grubby, greedy kids ringing the doorbell and scaring us (brats).

Til Next Month,
All of Us
(but not Stetson)
