Good but…

I reclaimed my Pumpkin, which is good…

A gorgeous young black cat lounges in a cat cave shaped like a pumpkin.

…but my Humans have not yet so much as procured the yellow, red, and orange foliage paint AND I think I may be stuck with only 3 jack-o-lanterns even though I require at least half a dozen for my Inaugural Official Halloween Portrait.

I’m beside myself with worry.

Better Day

The fake news yesterday turned out to be all too true and I was taken to the Vet. That was a bad day.

A handsome tuxedo cat perches in the top branches of a red maple.

Today I convinced the Humans that I am fully recovered from my vaccinations and they eventually let me outside, where I promptly scaled a tree.

Today is a better day.

Worried

I’m worried, Human Mommy.

Big Brother Apollo has confirmed that my outdoor foliage is still very green, which obviously won’t do for my Inaugural Official Halloween Portrait, you have only procured three jack-o-lanterns, though I need at least double that, and I’ve only received this single sleeping pumpkin as a Halloween gift, which doesn’t even really count as mine because I have to share it with Auntie Lily, the Queen of Autumn.

Do better.
