Code Brown


Once I got home yesterday, and all of today I have been following my mum around in case she disappears again. Whenever she sits on the couch, I run up and sit on her lap for about 5 minutes and then I am off again.

Last night, as we went to bed, mum noticed I smelled a bit whiffy. When she checked my back carriage, she noticed there was a bit of brown hanging around. By the time she got some toilet paper to clean me up, I had managed to sit in about 5 spots on her bed, and in the spare room. So doors were closed, gloves on, and duvets changed. Today I am a bit better, but mum is going to leave the big fleece blanket over the bed, just in case the excitement is all too much.

We both had a great nights sleep though in our own bed, but mum says she has arrived back and the autumn weather has really started. Luckily we have a mountain of jobs to do, lots of books to read and mum has plenty of merino to wear.

Smooches

  1. Hi Poppy,
    I know you happy you must be to be back home with your mum. I'm the same way when boarded. Mama has found a great pet sitter and I seem to be happier when she goes out of town. Anyway, sorry about the code brown. It happens.

    Purrs,
    Lucy

  2. hee hee. Mommy is laughing over "code brown" and is going to remember it the next time one of us needs a litle "assist"! So thanks, we think...it's sure better than "Grab so-and-so, they've got a dingleberry"!

  6. That's a nasty little problem, Poppy. We're sorry you had to endure it. But now that you are home with your Mummy, all should be well again.

  7. We almost didn't see you on that fleece. What are bed sheets for if not for wiping your bottom? We're confused.

  14. "A bit of brown hanging around." I love it! Not that I love it, but... ah, you know what I mean!

  15. Sighs. Moms are so very particular, aren't they? Ours gets after us with the pet bath wipes (mostly just Toby). Very annoying.

  18. We think that code brown is a great way to refer to that embarassing issue! And we think it is hilarious that you got to sit in so many places in such a quick time - that'll teach her to leave you again!

  20. Mommy laughed some when she read the your blog, as I left her a small bouquet of that same material on the floor next to her bed. I have NO idea why I did that! Luckily my kibble causes me to have easily cleaned up Code Browns. That is the first one..mom hopes it's the last she said.

  21. Hi Poppy - happy to see you home where you belong.If I was closer I could be your cat-sitter (no, I wouldn't sit on you, I would love you up.) Hugo is on a diet but he is not happy about that so I bought him 3 kinds of light food so he will have a variety. Tell mom if she puts you on a diet to be kind and make it tasty.

  22. Ha, ha! Oh no, not a code brown! We, too had a couple code browns because I'm trying to change foods over very slowly and it's not going well.
    I hope your feeling better soon!
