Callie here. It is not my fault. I am a perfect little angel (hack, hack - okay, even I choked up saying that!). Since we are going to be held prisoner all week, I thought I would leave my fans with a special song. It used to be called "Folsom Prison Blues" by the late great Johnny Cash. But my version is called "Boarding Prison Blues".
I hear the dogs
a barkin'
They’re hollering
all night,And I ain't smelled any good nip,
Since, I don't know when,
I'm stuck in Boarding Prison,
And time keeps draggin' on,
I hope it’s a bad rainin’,
On Mommie in San Antone.
Well, if they freed me from this prison,
If that Mommie would come home,I bet I'd work up a good hairball,
Smack on her new suitcase,
Don’t like my Boarding Prison,
Until Mommie comes back,
I’ll just meow as loud as I can,
Meow my Blues away.
One time the three of us were boarded - it wasn't because the humans were away (we have a sleepover pet sitter for that), but because our old house was tented for termites. I loved it - there was a play area with an enchanted forest of cat trees, and lots of room to wander around (we got let out of our deluxe hotel rooms occasionally). But Binga HATED it and she did her best to make our stay miserable with her grouchiness and bad behavior. I hope Sassy does not do that to you, Callie!
ReplyDeleteI sure hope you get outta jail soon! Maybe we will need to get a posse together and come break you out. Hey, I sure did like your tune!
ReplyDeleteOMC! I LOVE that song. TW once saw that Johnny Cash in concert and said he was pawsome.
ReplyDeleteDang, you're going to prison? Our mom is going on vacation next weekend. We hope she doesn't send us to prison too.
ReplyDeleteMy vet boards. I love it there! All the beans that work there come and play with us! They spoil us. They talk silly with us. And then they play with the dogs. They are on another level altogether! But we are always first. I think. The dogs never blab, anyway.
ReplyDeleteAw, we'll be thinking of you poor girls in boarding prison while your mom is locked up .... um,on vacation. We hope you have fun singing while she's gone.
ReplyDeleteAwww you poor kitties! Take some ear plugs! (especially you Sassy!)
ReplyDeleteIt's going to be hell in Carceration - wherever that is? You sing loud and you sing long, Callie. Sassy you singalong too sweetie xox
ReplyDeletePeeEss We hope mom doesn't have nasties done to her by the men in white coats!!!
How can it be a fun vacation if you are not with her?!?
ReplyDeleteIt sucks having to go to kitty boarding. But your song sure is super creative. Any interest in writing a creative story? Go check out the badges we made for blogville.
ReplyDeleteShe will beback in no time at all. And see you soon, cuties.

This is abuse - were you included in the choice of hotel for yourselves - of course not - just keep practicing hurling those furballs.

Do not worry... Herman's mom makes a really good nip cake. It's true! She made one for my peep's birthday a week or so ago. So, I'll ask Herman's mom to make another cake and I'll get a file or saw or something to put inside it. We'll have you our in no time. purrs.
ReplyDeleteOh Dear Sweet Pea!
ReplyDeleteThat is the most awful news! I shall await your return with baited breth!
Kisses
Your Sweet Ba Boo
Oh. My. Cat. While you wait for the hacksaw, you'll have plenty of time to plan dastardly deeds of revenge and spite. Get your creative thinking caps out!!!
