I’m incredibly sore today. It makes me realize how out of shape I am. I really need to get the dust off of that elliptical and get my butt into shape. Blah.

OK, so I have some kitty updates! I realized I haven’t post about my blog namesakes for a while. Ferris and Simone are good. We have some stray cats in our neighborhood that keep getting onto our deck and staring in our back door at our cats. I don’t like that, because it freaks our cats out, but Neal and I have tried to be vigilante at watching out for these cats. Anyone have any recommendations on something we can spray around our deck to keep out the stray cats, but that also won’t be harmful to our cats if we let our doors open? I’m really getting tired of the drama caused by these stray cats.

Neal and I have been noticing that the litter box we have is too small. I really liked it. It kind of looked like a spaceship/pod thing, but both Ferris and Simone couldn’t seem to go without sticking their heads and front legs out the front. And Ferris would literally almost lift up the lid if he stood up in it.

So we decided to get them a new box. We measured ours to make sure the one we got was bigger. We are happy with the new box we got. And we also bought a mat to try to minimize the stray litter.

The litter box has a door on it, but we wanted to get them used to the box before putting the door on.

P.S. – I realize I’m lame for posting about my cats’ litter box. But seriously, do you really expect anything else from me?

OK, and we also bought them some cat grass. It’s not catnip; it’s grass that is OK for cats to eat, and is supposed to help them with digestion. They fought over this stuff and really seemed to love it.

I think it’s wheat or oat grass. Either way, it really kept them busy for a while. And there was definitely some midnight snacking.

And here is a picture of Simone trying to hide under our football table (we call it that because it has leather accents on the top that look like football laces).

And Ferris kept meowing at our hamper until I tipped it over for him. He dashed into it and it started rolling back and forth with him in it. It was pretty funny and he seemed like he was having a good time!

So anyway, that’s all for now. The Eagles have a bye week this week, so we are just watching a little bit of each game that is on. I really love Sundays. Does Monday really have to follow it?
