The Ultimate Cat Lover

New to the website? Something you should know about me is that I love cats!! Oh, and by the way, as I increase my love for cats more and more through out the years, I will be adding things to this post to show it- just a lil' heads up!

I read about cats. The Warriors series! By Erin Hunter. To the wild cats, a pet cat would be a kittypet. That's what they call them- along with us humans named the Twolegs. The Warriors are about 4 clans of cats, named Riverclan, Thunderclan, Shadowclan, and Windclan. (To find out your warrior name, click here. To find out what clan you're in, click here.) Each clan has a leader, queens (she-cats expecting kits), a deputy, a medicine cat,  warriors (cats who are old enough to hunt for prey and attack well), apprentices who train to be warriors, and a few elders. Each clan also has their own hunting grounds. If other clan cats are in a clans territory, they battle. Sometimes a cat even gets killed.. but that isn't so often. There's also Starclan, but it's not like the other clans. When cats die, the rise up to the sky at night and become a star, with all the other stars. Sometimes when times are tough for a clan, Starclan would send them a shooting star message. I recommend these books for children 10 and up who enjoy the outdoors. The Warriors has many series, and here is what the first book of every series looks like:

The first series:

(Into The Wild)

The new prophecy:

(Midnight)

The power of three:



(The Sight)

And in Manga..



(The Lost Warrior)

I hope you like the series!!

I dress as cats. In fourth grade, my mom made me a black and white cat costume. We took this super fuzzy white fabric, cut it into an oval kind of shape, and hot-glued it to the front of a black shirt I was about to outgrow. For the face- we didn't make the face. We bought the face. It wasn't like a mask, though. I dislike masks. Why? Because they can get very annoying after a while, sometimes the string is to loose, your breath smells like plasticy fog after a while, and the people you look at don't see the real you. It was a kitty head band with ears on it, attached to this stretchy material that lead down to a bow tie that went under my chin, of course. I was a tuxedo kitty! Hehee! We used a bit of face paint to actually cover the face, and I have to say. It was a bit uncomfortable.. whatever. The tail we didn't make either. We bought a black tail that had that same stretchy material that went all around the waist so it would stay. For the legs, I just put on some black pants. And the shoes! This was my favorite part. We put a sock over the sneaker, then hot-glued some more fuzzy white fabric to the sock- I has fuzzy feetz!

I carve cats. This year, (2008) I carved my pumpkin to be in a kitty form. No, not just the simple kitty face. I did the whole body- even the whiskers! And that my friend, is very hard to do. Here's what it looked like:



Yeah.. the tail didn't have the pumpkin guts to really hold it self up, so I stuck a toothpick in there to support it- but what I really like is that the cat has this evil look in her eyes, like she's going to jump on you and attack you. So I'm browsing iPhoto, and I'm looking for the cat pumpkin picture to upload on here- believe it or not- I did a simple cat face last year! Honestly, I do NOT remember doing that- but anyway, here's how it turned out:

Yup. There it is. I have to say, the eyes look kind of droopy and sad- but that was last year- this year, prepare for the new and improved Sonja! More wackier, sillyer, gigglyer, and descriptive in her writing! Heehee! I love doing 'commercials' like that. ~Giggle!~

I take the joy of cats with me. With a cute little key chain, of course! I hang it on my backpack. It's the only key chain on my backpack. I plan to get other kitty key chains to hang, so my love for cats shows on every zipper! :-)

I draw cats. I used to make comics of cats called 'Fat Cat Comics' only I never really made them look fat. The comics where based on my two cats, Pudge and Pesky. Pudge is the popular and hot dude of the city, and Pesky is the dumb  brother Pudge visits almost every weekend. I've made about 5 comic books with extreme detailed pictures. Sadly I didn't color them in. I don't think they need to be, though. I still do draw cats today, just not in comic form. I draw them and hang a few on my bulletin board. Some are completely cartoon like, and some are very realistic.

I laugh at cats. They can be so funny and curious- they just want to explore the world and see whats out there. They look into every little nook to see if they've found something new. At www.Icanhascheezburger.com, I love to look at the hundreds of funny cat pictures. Here's just one of my 50 favorites:



That one just cracks me up every time! Hehee! :-) Want to see more of my favorites? Click here. And don't forget to click the 'Next Entries' button on the lower right hand corner of the page to see more favorites.

I have cat lounge pants! They're pink, with cute cats all over it. I love it! They are so cozy and warm..

I hang things on cats tails. With the tail hook from my #1 favorite store.. IKEA! Here's what they look like:

Isn't that funny? I got a couple of those, green and blue (to match my room). I know that they are mainly for dog leashes, but come on. What's the difference between a dog's butt and tail and a cat's butt and tail? I could be either one, really. I think of it as a cat's. I think that is just something every dog or cat owner should have.

I act as cats. Sometimes.. although I am very curious like cats, but I might not always land on my feet when falling as cats do. I mean, I do land on my feet, but then right after that I go tumbling into a somersault. I have a friend, actually the same friend who inviting me to Sebago Lake, Maine. (For more info go to the search box and search: Sebago Lake, Maine) Who loves kitties. Not as much as I do, but he loves kitties. We love to wrestle like kitties do, and explore the woods like kitties do.

I decorate with cats. My mom has these mini hollow kitty statues, and let me have them in my room. There was a black one that was skinny, and sitting tall, and there was a plump white kitty sitting not-so-tall. I  put the black one next to my alarm clock, (more info on my alarm clock, click here to read a funny story that happened with my crazy alarm clock.) And put the other one on my desk.

I'm an online kitty! You know how if you have an account on the computer, and you have a little picture next to your name? My picture is a kitty!

I sleep with cats. Surprisingly enough, I only have 1 stuffed animal that is a cat. I named her Carly, after the awesome T.V. show, iCarly. (More info on that, just scroll down until you see 'iCarly' or just go to the search box and search iCarly.) But that's okay, because every night, my cat Pudge always sleeps with me. He purrs a lot and seems to be very fascinated in my fingers. Poor cats don't have opposable thumbs.

And of course, I have cats myself! Named Pudge and Pesky. A common question about Pesky: Did you name him Pesky because he is pesky? Partly, yes. But mostly after Johny Pesky the Red Sox player. We named Pudge after a Red Sox player named Carlton Fisk- Pudge was his nickname, apparently. We've had Pudge and Pesky for about 3 or 4 years now, and they can be very wacky. One time, during the summer, my dad opened the porch door so the cats could go in and out as they please. But pesky just didn't get that. He would go outside the porch door, and then next thing you know, he's meowing at the front door to come in. Oh! And another time, when we where having the porch rebuilt, Pesky was all confused on why it was just- gone. He was staring at us from about 15 feet below. Then he got on top of a saw horse, and jumped up to the door from there. He may be a little stupid in ways, but he can be very clever! Here's a few pictures of Pesky when we just got him as a kit:



He's almost never like this. (Above) And yet he finds it very comfortable! He sometimes even sleeps that way- just imagine that for a sec. Sleeping on your belly, with your legs spread apart and tail sticking out. (Just imagine you have a tail.) So.. would you want to sleep like that? Yeah. I didn't think so.



It's like Pesky is a chess piece- a very confused one, that's for sure.

And Pudge as a lil' kit:

It's like puss in boots- only cuter!! All he needs is some fancy black velvet boots, a cool sword, and a big black hat and he's ready to go!

Get that thing! Get it! AAAhh!!

Group picture:

Awww.. they love each other. Believe it or not, when they where young, they used to wrestle each other under the table- it was quite amusing. It never got that violent though- basically, they just his at each other and scare each other by leaping on them, and then at the end they're grooming each other.

Just for the fun of it, and because I'm the ultimate cat lover, I'm making a huge collage of cats. It's going to have big letters saying, 'I LOVE CATS' witch are also cut out. I can't put it together, because I still don't have enough pictures of cats. I will someday.
