I Crap In a Box

I'm Maddie, a fabulous foul-mouthed Calico from Washington, D.C. I sleep, whine and poop a lot. Swearing like a sailor and vomiting like a supermodel round out my typical day. Tormenting my sister also warms my heart!

Catchin' bugs

Mommy has a little cockroach trap set on the kitchen floor, behind the garbage can. We are very clean, but once in awhile, a critter emerges from the drain.

The other day, a waterbug went dancing across the floor. Mommy saw Kadi playing with it, and she didn't care. But then when I went to check it out, Mommy went nuts, pulled me away from it, and squashed it with the heel of a nearby shoe. Heh. Funny how she's so much more protective of me than of the little terror.

Kadi hasn't gotten any smarter since I last wrote. Remember that bug trap? Well, Kadi hasn't quite grasped the concept yet that it's for real bugs. What did she do? She took my favorite toy -- a stuffed ladybug with sequins -- and shoved it into the trap. I kid you not -- I came over to find the ladybug's ass hangin' outta the trap, and I was very upset and howled for Mommy, who pulled it out and petted me on the head for giving her hope that she has at least one smart child. :)
