Don’t roll your eyes, Floof. You asked for it and you got it.

And it’s cute.

She likes the inventiveness. But not at three am. Or any other time she’s trying to sleep.

Sirius is so musically inventive.

True comic strip fans of a certain age know the song goes “Deck Us All with Boston Charlie, Walla Walla, Wash. and Kallmazoo” goes on for at least 12 more stanzs. Walt Kelly’s Pogo

Yikes! Poor Floof.

In my Dreamwidth journal, I posted a bunch of Catmas carols.

Sirius seems impervious to criticism :)

worked a custody shift in the county jail one holiday season, the awaiting trial cell block, the issued clothing was laundered and reissued so many times that it was threadbare, overheard this…“Darn we now our gray apparel…”

Floof needs to restart her cat as Santa’s helpers campaign, maybe set to traditional music

After a thoughtful pause – Yum, Bow-Wow coated Bow-Wows!

“Well, here’s another nice mess you’ve gotten us into.”

POGO!!! Ohboyohboyohboy!

Someone knows how to celebrate Dogmas!

Misheard Christmas lyrics. By Sirius.

He’s so creative.

Here’s a Chanukah one for those celebrating, with textual variants noted.

Al hapizza

V’al haporcupine (maybe I should make it ha-Porky Pine)

V’al hagooey gum

V’al hachewey gum

Open up the door (I think we just made this line “lalalalala" when I was a kid)

Now the pizza’s on the table (I seem to remember it as "now the teacher’s on the table)

Mommy says it’s time to go to bed!

I like Sirius’ version of “Deck Us All With Boston Charlie.”

I rather like “Fleas Never Dead” myself.
