I don’t like to be selfish, so I waited until everyone else had a turn on Mom and Dad’s blog to write my story. And now, I am so excited, because I get to meet all of you! You all can be my BFF’s!! I want to give all of you hugs. I am just so happy to be writing to you! My name is Peanut and I am just so sweet and friendly and I would be so sad if you did not want to be my friend! You do like me, don’t you?
 
First of all, I just want to tell you how much I love my family. You already know my smart and awesome brother Zeuss from Boston and I know you met my beautiful sister Mia and my good looking brother Rolz the other day. You know my Mom and Dad – Zee and Zoey – who are the best cat parents in the whole world and my humans – Deb and Dan – who write such great stories for this blog and take all kinds of amazing pictures of us. I love all of them so much and they are all just so wonderful. I am just so excited to wake up each morning to start a wonderful new day with all of them. Everybody says that they don’t understand how I could be the daughter of Zee and Zoey because I am just so ultra sugary sweet and nice. I literally don’t have a mean bone in my body. My Mom can be a touch cranky and irritable and my Dad used to be really aloof, so no one knows why I am always just so HAPPY!!! As a matter of fact, I want to hug all of you right now! I love all of you! Everyday, no matter what mood anyone is in, what they are doing, whether it is convenient or not, I come for my daily loving, hugging, purring and love fest. If human Mom or Dad are on the computer, I come sit on their laps anyway and get in the way of everything they are doing until they pet me. I will even jump on human Dad’s head or shoulder to get his attention in case he forgets it’s my loving time.

I am a very beautiful girl like my sister Mia, but I don’t like to brag about it like she does. My fur is really dark like my Daddy’s and I love so many things. I love my humans, I love my Mom and Dad and brothers and sisters. I love Grandpa cat Jazz and Aunt cat Harley and I love all of you. I love to take naps – my human Mom put a blanket on the floor next to a window for Mia and I to nap on. The window gives us warm and special sunbeams on the floor and keeps Mia and I so cozy and comfy and I love that. I love to go outside and explore in our backyard for butterflies and lizards. I love to talk and I love when it is dinner time. I love to play laser pen and I really love to steal straws from my human’s drinks. I also love to climb up to high places like shelves and refrigerators and we also have a big cat that I like to sit on. This cat is really shy and never moves when I jump on it. The humans call it a “decoration.” I have never heard of that kind of cat, but I like it anyways.

The only thing I don’t love is when people or cats fight or yell or tell me to go away so I can’t get the loving I want. Sometimes my Mama Zoey will growl at me when I want to snuggle with her, but I ignore her and stay with her. If my humans tell me to go away, I just keep reminding them, over and over, that I want to be petted. I am just so sweet and nice, that they finally do pet me. See how smart I am? I also don’t love dogs. I didn’t know what a dog was until a couple of days ago when we all went outside for our backyard weekend adventure. Something really loud and crazy with four legs and fur came running for me. Good thing there was a fence because I got really scared and my tail puffed up really big and I had to run back in the house. The humans laughed at me and said this thing that made my tail big was a dog, so I don’t like dogs. There is a pretty little calico kitty that comes into our backyard. I see her when I look out the window. I want to be her friend, but she always runs away when we open the door. Does she think we are dogs? I want to tell her we are not.

I have to go now – I’m pretty sure it’s time to snuggle with someone. Please write back to me and then I will write back to you, then you can write back to me. Hope you have a wonderful day!

Hugs and Kisses,

Peanut
