			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>For some reason, Tamra thinks the only thing I am capable of writing about is puke&#8230; That&#8217;s not true! There is more to life than puke, such as this incredible box the beans brought home!</p>
<p><a href="http://tamramaew.com/?attachment_id=284" rel="attachment wp-att-284" title="Griffin sitting in a box"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://tamramaew.com/?attachment_id=284" rel="attachment wp-att-284" title="Griffin sitting in a box"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/griffin_sitting_in_box.JPG" alt="Griffin sitting in a box" /></a></p>
<p>This box is extremely versatile. It can be used as a chair, or a bed. There is no reason to ever leave a box like this!<br />
<a href="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/griffin_sleeping_in_box.JPG" title="Griffin sleeping in a box"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://tamramaew.com/?attachment_id=285" rel="attachment wp-att-285" title="Griffin sleeping in a box"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/griffin_sleeping_in_box.JPG" alt="Griffin sleeping in a box" /></a></p>
<p>In fact, a strawberry flavored box like this also makes the perfect snack! Just chew chew chew until you can&#8217;t chew no more, then puke puke puke until there&#8217;s no more room on the floor! hehe! Don&#8217;t get the wrong idea, I&#8217;m not a messy cat, I cleanup all my mess later when I get hungry again. Cardboard is always easier to digest the second time around.</p>
<p>Also, <a href="http://teamtabby.blogspot.com/" title="Moe and Mindy">Moe, Mindy</a> and <a href="http://kittylimericks.blogspot.com/" title="Karen Jo">Karen Jo</a>, we think you&#8217;re cool cats too!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This summer I spent a lot of time relaxing and enjoying the nice weather while officially taking my first writers strike. Since March, I&#8217;ve allowed Griffin to make three posts on my blog. I thought this was very generous on my part, however, the servants did not agree. They insisted I allow Griffin to post whenever he wants! I could not accept these terms and so was forced to go on strike while attempting to negotiate a more acceptable arrangement.</p>
<p><a href="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_on_the_drying_blanket.jpg" title="Tamra on the drying blanket"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_on_the_drying_blanket.jpg" title="Tamra on the drying blanket"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_on_the_drying_blanket.jpg" alt="Tamra on the drying blanket" /></a></p>
<p>I was sure the servants would give-in, but after about a month, negotiations were still at a stale-mate. I decided to get out of my comfortable sun-bathing bed and use my secret weapon&#8230; irresistible cuteness!</p>
<p><a href="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_cute_on_sofa.JPG" title="Tamra being cute on the sofa"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_cute_on_sofa.JPG" title="Tamra being cute on the sofa"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_cute_on_sofa.JPG" alt="Tamra being cute on the sofa" /></a></p>
<p>My cuteness got me a lot of love and temptations, but still no internet access! I started to get depressed sitting around all day without my blog and all my cat friends&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_depressed_on_sofa.JPG" title="Tamra depressed on the sofa"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_depressed_on_sofa.JPG" title="Tamra depressed on the sofa"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/tamra_depressed_on_sofa.JPG" alt="Tamra depressed on the sofa" /></a></p>
<p>So&#8230; I gave in, I caved, I stooped to an all-time low and agreed to let Griffin stick his giant head into my blog whenever he wants.  I already accepted the fact that I would have to tolerate him in life, but looks like I&#8217;m officially stuck with him on my blog as well.</p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/griffin_giant_head.JPG" title="Griffin and his tiny giant head"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/griffin_giant_head.JPG" alt="Griffin and his tiny giant head" /></a></p>
<p>The last time I let Griffin write his own post, he wrote about <a href="http://tamramaew.com/vomito-de-gato-griffin/" title="Puking up toilet paper">puking up toilet paper</a>&#8230; Hopefully my three month strike at least did some good by giving him enough time to lose some of his more disgusting habits so we never have to read about them!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>From time to time the humans will amaze us with a rare display of intelligence. Recently, they did just that when they came home with a Cat Condo! Granted, its a bit small for two and any actually smart human would have gotten us each our own&#8230; Still, we are pleased with this acquisition and have found it to serve most of our basic daily needs.</p>
<p align="center">A Cat Condo is a perfect place to play some games! There are balls to whop and plenty of places to scratch and chew.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Playing at Cat Condo" href="http://tamramaew.com/humans-provide-cat-condo-we-are-pleased/playing-at-cat-condo/" rel="attachment wp-att-276"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/catcondo1.JPG" alt="Playing at Cat Condo" /></a></p>
<p align="center">A Cat Condo is also a perfect place to wash. There are lots of furs and usually an extra tongue helping you!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Washing at Cat Condo" href="http://tamramaew.com/humans-provide-cat-condo-we-are-pleased/washing-at-cat-condo/" rel="attachment wp-att-278"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/catcondo3.JPG" alt="Washing at Cat Condo" /></a></p>
<p align="center">A Cat Condo also serves well for naps. There isn&#8217;t much room but we always fit two.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p style="text-align: center;"><a title="Napping at Cat Condo" href="http://tamramaew.com/humans-provide-cat-condo-we-are-pleased/napping-at-cat-condo/" rel="attachment wp-att-277"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/catcondo2.JPG" alt="Napping at Cat Condo" /></a></p>
<p align="center">In fact, there&#8217;s no reason to leave a Cat Condo except for food and to poo!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Today I puked up my very first pile of vomito de gato! Tamra tells me there is much more to come in my future, especially if I keep up my current eating habits&#8230;</p>
<p>For the last week I&#8217;ve discovered how fun it is to eat Kleenex and unroll the toilet paper.  Unfortunately, I&#8217;ve now also gotten hooked to eating the stuff! It&#8217;s just so wonderfully chewy!</p>
<p><a href="http://tamramaew.com/vomito-de-gato-griffin/griffin-in-a-kleenex-box/" rel="attachment wp-att-273" title="Griffin in a Kleenex Box"></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/griffininkleenex.jpg" alt="Griffin in a Kleenex Box" /></p>
<p></a></p>
<p>As you may have already guessed&#8230; it wasn&#8217;t a furrball I puked up! It was more like half a roll of toilet paper which the servants then flushed down the toilet. The good news is that I must be using the toilet paper properly if the servants flushed it because thats what they do when they use it too.</p>
<p>I do find it odd that the humans weren&#8217;t more concerned when I puked&#8230; They seemed more interested in rolling all the toilet paper up again after I worked so hard to spread it nice and evenly across the floor. Tamra is right, they are definitely incompetent.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://taraprincessmeezer.blogspot.com/" title="Tara and Kavan">Tara and Kavan</a> started a new Three Name Meme and Kavan tagged me! Here are the rules:</p>
<blockquote><p>In case you aren&#8217;t familiar with The Naming of Cats, in the <a href="http://www.moggies.co.uk/html/oldpssm.html">Old Possum&#8217;s Book of Practical Cats</a>, by T.S. Eliot, we all have three names! So, in this meme, you must link to the originator of the meme (<a href="http://taraprincessmeezer.blogspot.com/" title="Tara and Kavan">Tara and Kavan</a>), list the following rules, and then tell us:</p>
<p>1. The name that the family uses daily (such as Peter, Agustus, Alonzo, or James)<span style="display: block" id="formatbar_Buttons"><span class="on" style="display: block" id="formatbar_CreateLink" title="Link" onmouseover="ButtonHoverOn(this);" onmouseout="ButtonHoverOff(this);" onmousedown="CheckFormatting(event);FormatbarButton('richeditorframe', this, 8);ButtonMouseDown(this);"></span></span><br />
2. The name that is particular, a name thats peculiar, and more dignified (such as Munkustrap, Quaxo, or Coricopat)</p>
<p>3. What you are doing when you are thinking of the name that only you know, and will never confess (when engaged in rapt contemplation), that deep and inscrutable singular name</p>
<p>Then tag three cats to give their three names.</p></blockquote>
<p>Here are my three names:</p>
<p>1. Tamra&#8230; or Tamra Maew if im being bad!<br />
2. HoneyBunnyBites<br />
3. Wondering what Griffins ears taste like with mayonnaise&#8230; mmm mayonnaise!</p>
<p>and here are Griffins:</p>
<p>1. Griffin<br />
2. MonkeyClawsClimb<br />
3. Developing a master plan for my next attack on Tamra&#8217;s tail!</p>

<p></a></p>
<p>Today is my birthday! I think I&#8217;ve come a long way since I posted that <a href="http://tamramaew.com/the-moment-youve-all-been-waiting-for/" title="First Picture of Tamra Maew">first picture of myself</a> back in June 2007&#8230; In fact, now that I think about it&#8230;</p>
<p>&#8230; it all started on a sad evening near the end of June when my furr brother and <a href="http://tamramaew.com/sister-got-her-slaves/" title="Sister Got Her Slaves">sister left with their new slaves</a>. It was dark outside, pouring rain, with all happiness in the world being washed away by the tears running down my face when suddenly a loud buzzing noise filled the room. Two very incompetent looking humans walked in and one began to <a href="http://tamramaew.com/the-creepy-slaves-came-back-for-me/" title="Not Allergic to Tamra!">rub me against his face while sniffing me</a>. I felt my little heart bounce up and down with joy when they returned to take me home,  even though I knew I&#8217;d have a lot of training to do with these two.</p>
<p>Thankfully my servants knew the basics and immediately <a href="http://tamramaew.com/hunting-the-servants-mouse/" title="Hunting the Servants Mouse">provided me with mice to play with</a>. Still, there were times when I <a href="http://tamramaew.com/found-a-great-new-chew-toy/" title="Disciplining the Human">needed to discipline them</a> or remind them that <a href="http://tamramaew.com/posing-for-the-camera/" title="Distracting the Humans">my beauty was not to be ignored</a>. When it comes to food, they are still incompetent to this very day, forcing me to <a href="http://tamramaew.com/enjoying-my-morning-coffee/" title="Enjoying Morning Coffee">steal coffee</a> or <a href="http://tamramaew.com/happy-hour-gone-bad/" title="Happy Hour Gone Bad">alcoholic beverages</a> on a daily basis.</p>
<p><a href="http://tamramaew.com/my-latest-nap-spots/" title="Nap Spots">Sleeping arrangements</a> have always been adequate and in fact I even <a href="http://tamramaew.com/afternoon-caffeine-crash/" title="Caffeine Crash in my Chair">claimed my own chair</a> in the house! The humans also encouraged my artistic talents by helping me get on the big YouTube Screen with my <a href="http://tamramaew.com/movie-monday-halloween-ghostbuster/" title="Halloween Movie">Halloween Movie</a>. Still, if you look at my <a href="http://tamramaew.com/thursday-thirteen-tamras-favorite-things/" title="Favorite Things">List of Favorite Things</a>, the humans often try to prevent me from enjoying them and thus require <a href="http://tamramaew.com/thursday-thirteen-morning-mischief/" title="further Discipline, see #4!">further disciplining</a>.</p>
<p>As I continue to age I also continue to acquire more and more wisdom. I&#8217;ve therefore diversified my disciplining techniques to also include punishment in the form of mischief. <a href="http://tamramaew.com/flashback-friday-screen-climbing/" title="Climbing the Screen">Climbing the screen</a>, <a href="http://tamramaew.com/wordless-wednesday-the-closet-walk/" title="Knocking Down Clothes in the Closet">knocking down clothes in the closet</a>, or<a href="http://tamramaew.com/naps-on-tuesday-hard-days-work/" title="Shredding the Chair"> shredding the chair</a>, are just some of my better ideas. If they wish to retain my affections, they have no choice but to learn from their mistakes and reward my mischief with gifts, such as <a href="http://tamramaew.com/servants-finally-got-me-clothes/" title="Finally Got Some Clothes!">when I got my collar</a>!</p>
<p>If discipling my human servants wasn&#8217;t enough to keep me busy for an entire year, there was also the matter of the <a href="http://tamramaew.com/meezer-rule-cook-an-alien-when-it-wants-to-eat-you/" title="Cook an Alien if it Wants to Eat You">alien invasion</a> I had to take care of&#8230; I also had to constantly keep a very close eye on <a href="http://tamramaew.com/hunting-my-pickle-monster/" title="Hunting Pickle Monster Poem">the pickle monster</a> in my house&#8230;  You would think after making these sacrifices on my part for the betterment of humanity and my household I would be rewarded, but again my servants went and proved their incompetence by going and <a href="http://tamramaew.com/if-you-think-you-had-a-bad-day/" title="Bringing Home Griffin">brining home Griffin</a>&#8230;</p>
<p>All in all, while I made some progress in training my servants in my first year, I still have a lot of work left ahead of me in the next year! With the way <a href="http://tamramaew.com/griffin-growing-like-a-weed/" title="Griffin Growing Like a Weed">Griffin has been Growing Like a Weed</a>, he may soon prove to be a formidable ally in my quest to train the incompetent servants. Of course, I may have my work cut out for me training him as well&#8230;</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s my furr Mom and Dad wishing me a Happy Birthday!</p>
<p><a href="http://tamramaew.com/its-my-birthday/furr-mom-and-dad/" rel="attachment wp-att-266" title="Furr Mom and Dad"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://tamramaew.com/its-my-birthday/furr-mom-and-dad/" rel="attachment wp-att-266" title="Furr Mom and Dad"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/momdad.jpg" alt="Furr Mom and Dad" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center">I&#8217;d love to stay and chat some more but Griffin say&#8217;s he wants to show me something in the office. He says he has a plan for mischief he wans to give me for my birthday that involves stealing clothes pins&#8230;! The only thing that could beat that is if the servants bring me an empty box tonight for me to play in!</p>

<p>Go habs go! Go habs go!</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tamramaew.com/siamese-cats-cheering-montreal-canadiens/tamra-and-griffin-still-watching-the-montreal-canadiens/" rel="attachment wp-att-261" title="Tamra and Griffin still watching the Montreal Canadiens!"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.tamramaew.com/siamese-cats-cheering-montreal-canadiens/tamra-and-griffin-still-watching-the-montreal-canadiens/" rel="attachment wp-att-261" title="Tamra and Griffin still watching the Montreal Canadiens!"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/siamesewatchingcanadiens2.jpg" alt="Tamra and Griffin still watching the Montreal Canadiens!" /></a></p>
<p>While watching the game, I decided to ask Tamra what would happen if we cheered for the other team? Right now they are playing the Flyers, and I have recently found birds and flies to be interesting since the start of Spring.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tamramaew.com/siamese-cats-cheering-montreal-canadiens/this-is-what-happens-when-you-dont-cheer-for-the-montreal-canadiens/" rel="attachment wp-att-262" title="This is what happens when you don’t cheer for the Montreal Canadiens"></a></p>
<p style="text-align: center"><a href="http://www.tamramaew.com/siamese-cats-cheering-montreal-canadiens/this-is-what-happens-when-you-dont-cheer-for-the-montreal-canadiens/" rel="attachment wp-att-262" title="This is what happens when you don’t cheer for the Montreal Canadiens"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/siamesewatchingcanadiens3.jpg" alt="This is what happens when you don’t cheer for the Montreal Canadiens" /></a></p>
<p>I suggest you all cheer for the Montreal Canadiens. I found out the hard way what would happen</p>
<p align="center"><a href="http://www.tamramaew.com/siamese-cats-cheering-montreal-canadiens/the-referee-has-to-intervene-to-break-up-the-fight/" rel="attachment wp-att-263" title="The referee has to intervene to break-up the fight!"><img src="http://tamramaew.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/04/siamesewatchingcanadiens4.jpg" alt="The referee has to intervene to break-up the fight!" /></a></p>
<p>As you can see, the referee finally had to separate us! The ref warned that if we kept roughing we would get a 2 minute penalty in the PTU!</p>
<p><strong>Meezer Rule: If you&#8217;re gonna rough up the opponent, make sure you aren&#8217;t sitting on the referee&#8217;s lap or you&#8217;ll always get caught! </strong></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Griffin is growing at an alarming rate! In fact, if he keeps this up he may soon be bigger than me. This is bad because he is obsessed with chewing my tail. If he&#8217;s bigger, I&#8217;ll obviously always be smarter and sneakier and so I&#8217;ll be able to avoid his tail attacks while I&#8217;m awake. My main concern is that while I sleep that fatso will squash me in attempt to eat my tail! I do not approve of him messing up my beautiful furrs.</p>
<p><strong>Meezer Rule: When your brother is a fatso, sleep with one eye open to protect your beautiful furrs!</strong></p>
<p>Here are some pictures showing his alarming size increase&#8230;! Did I mention he even steals my food?</p>
