Wrestle-Mania

We were being good girls.
Sitting on the chair and pretending to sleep.

But when grandma wasn't looking...

It was wrestling time!
Velvet got me in a neckhold and I couldn't break free!


I decided to play dead asleep and hope that she gave up.

Zzzzz

Today I was wrestling with Velvet.

We didn't get very far...

Lilly's Coma

Velvet's attack caught me unaware!

Mom found me and carried me to a place where I could rest.

I was oblivious throughout the whole process.

Sleepy time for Tiger Lilly.

Velvet's Tale of Retribution

Velvet: This is my blog now!

After my defeat, I needed revenge. Sure, I was comfy on the bed and slept for many hours, but that doesn't absolve Lilly of the fact that she humiliated me!

So I crouched by the bed and waited...


I got bored after a while, so I ventured out to see if I could find my sister.


She was being sneaky!!


I doubled back and caught her by the bed. I would not let her best me this time!


The fight that ensued was epic and terrible. I emerged victorious and I'm sure that Lilly will not be able to exact revenge on me after this. Not with my newly-gained super, flying powers!

ZOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMM!!
I FLY!!


I made a nest out of flip flops. From there I can look out over my domain. Lilly will never conquer again!

THE END.

Love,
Velvet Velour

Tale of bravery and valour

I was just walking across mom's bed one day...


Blissfully unaware of the enemy hiding... waiting. Her camouflage was nearly perfect. There was no way for me to know she was waiting... for me!


Her attack was swift and precise.
I fought back with great courage and strength, like David against a mighty Goliath, Velvet was half-again my size!

[validity of this statement has not yet been measured]

I pushed her over the edge of the bed, but her tenacity was inhuman! She locked into my paws and pulled me down to the ground. Stunned, I landed on the soft, carpeted flooring. Velvet was nowhere in sight. I realized I had to act fast to regain my footing before the gained the upper-paw.


Suddenly, she attacked! We wrestled for many long minutes, all the while mom did nothing to break us apart. She kept pointing the silver device at us, occasionally making it flash.


In the end, I emerged victorious. Velvet was defeated upon the grounds of mom's bedroom. I cast Velvet's body to the comfy, sleepy bed of the desk where she did not move. No, I don't think she was sleeping, but she might have been...
Yes, it was truly an epic battle, from which I emerged with many epic loots and tales of adventure.


What? ...do you doubt my amazing tale of my awesomeness? UNBELIEVER!


I am Tiger Lilly, the brave warrior! Grrrr! I know where you sleep, too. One night, when you least expect it I will strike. You will feel something furry against your arm and hear a deep, roaring purr against your ear.
Then, my friend. Then you will know that your nights of worry-less sleep are at an end. In the quiet and darkness you will hear me. My feet make little sound, but the sound of your treasured possessions being knocked to the floor will echo in your ears. Your drapes will shred beneath my claws and everything you've ever loved will now be coated with a thin layer of cat fur.
You will be helpless, listening to your world being chewed up by my kitty teeth as you lie awake in the dark... terrified... of the Lilly.

Sleeping 102

Sleeping is an artform. One that Velvet is in the process of perfecting.

Anyone can sleep, but very few can sleep and attract attention and "cooing" from humans while exerting zero effort. Benefits of this include: being cuddled, extra food, better bedding (upon which to sleep more and attract more attention).

Below are various poses adopted by my sister Velvet as she slept on mom's desk.

The Backstretch


Lay-Z-Boy Maneuver


The Backstroke


Tired Little Lump Pose

Sleeping 101

We have perfected the art of sleeping.

Sometimes, Velvet and I drift apart while we're sleeping. We lose valuable heat this way and it's not nearly as comfortable.

We have solved the problem by our patented neck-locking technology.

We just rest our heads on each other until our necks are wrapped around each other in a comfortable embrace. We'll never be apart again.


Loves you, Velvet. *climbs the drapes, much to mom's chagrin*

Pidgins!

We were just sleeping on our perch.


Suddenly, my spidey sense was going off! There was something outside. Something potentially delicious!


Holy crap! What is that?


It's a massive pidgin! What's it doing all the way out here? Mom says that those live in the city, but aren't so BIG!


That bird is bigger than me, mom! What are we gonna do?


You... let him at the birdfeeders? He won't leave, now!


What? He's just like a big chicken? Hmm, that does add a new perspective to it for me. Think I'll dream about yummies.



Mom: I don't know where that bird came from, but he's been hanging out for a while in the backyard. No worries, Velvet and Lilly won't get out to get him. They'll get their tinned food and pidgie will get his birdseed.

Visits from strangers

Mom's brother came to visit. Even though he's allergic to us, he liked playing with us.



This big mouse was always on the floor. I liked biting it, but when he dragged it around and let me chase it, I knew I liked him immediately. He even lifted it into the air and gave me a challenge to catch it!

Hunt for the comfy bed

The computer desk holds a great number of mystifying things.

The skull named "Murray" was one of them.

I went exploring.

Velvet had settled down to watch the computer screen.

Mom, where shall I go?

Over here?

Or over here?

Ahhhh, comfy printer bed!

Sleepin' in mom's room

Mom said we could sleep in her room!

No more bathroom bedtime for us! There are more things to explore in her room, like DRAWERS!!


But I wanted more...

STRAW TIME!!

I nommed on the straw because it is hollow light-weight and made of FUN!


So much fun...


Velvet wanted in on my straw action. I said NO, but she insisted and took it from me. She keeps eating, so she's getting bigger.


So I just washed myself while she tried to taunt me with the stolen!straw.




I pretended not to be interested and went to explore under mom's dresser.


I then remembered that there was something better than a straw in our box.


FOIL BALL TIME!!


Velvet waited her turn to play...


But she waited a looooong time, because I don't give up so easily! She has the straw, I have the ball. I win!


I luff my ball!


♥ Luff luff luff! ♥


Mom then distracted me with her toes! I bit them while Velvet held her leg down so she couldn't escape.
