While it is true I do weigh 21 pounds, I am Very Big Boned and have a Large Frame. My Humans are trying to cut back on my Food but I really think it's Lack of Exercise that is the Culprint here. Perhaps That Dog should chase me around the House a little more...Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-19591247095959225952008-06-28T18:36:00.000-04:002008-06-28T18:36:00.000-04:00OMG, sorry Baxter, my first thought: "good heavens...OMG, sorry Baxter, my first thought: "good heavens that cat is huge!"denverdochttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09574453567392165275noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-86715293755767447842008-06-26T22:22:00.000-04:002008-06-26T22:22:00.000-04:00Baxter, I'm sure your humans missed your desperate...Baxter, I'm sure your humans missed your desperately while they were away, and they are just trying to keep a stiff upper lip.

Baxter isn't available at the moment to respond but I will do my best to speak for him.<BR/><BR/>Future, I am sorry to hear you are taking a vacation from our little world and hope it will not be long. Take your nap and eat your tuna and come on back and join the fray!<BR/><BR/>Randal, it's so true - I need that serenity on a regular basis.<BR/><BR/>D.K., funny how different dogs have different personalities and ways of doing things, isn't it? Our last dog would no sooner have rolled over on her back for any reason whatsoever than stand on her head, but this one loves to just let it all hang out! And yes, the Cape in general has a lot of great places for long walks, and also a wonderful bike trail that goes through fields and over ponds and through woods - it's great.<BR/><BR/>DCup, one of these days we may bring Baxter up to the Cape if we stay for a longer time. He might adjust!<BR/><BR/>Fran, I know cats think vacations are overrated...not me though! ;-) I think Diva enjoys them too although I think she likes coming home as well. She is always glad to see her territory again!<BR/><BR/>Dr. Z, maybe this type of cat tends to have "big bones..." Yes, Baxter is an excellent speller. He understands that bad spelling is a pet peeve of mine so he makes a real effort.<BR/><BR/>David, I'm glad you enjoyed the pictures!<BR/><BR/>Enigma, Baxter will be gratified that you feel it's just the camera angle...<BR/><BR/>Christopher, if you haven't been to the Cape I highly recommend it! <BR/><BR/>Comrade K, so sorry you lost the opportunity of a photo shoot. <BR/><BR/>KGMom, it seems there are a lot of Baxter lookalikes around. In fact, my neighbor has one who looks just like him but since he's an outdoor cat he must get more exercise as he is a bit leaner!Mauigirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15529827915262851910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34240686.post-7553311515079492122008-06-25T22:32:00.000-04:002008-06-25T22:32:00.000-04:00Baxter--you strongly resemble my lovely cat Cassid...Baxter--you strongly resemble my lovely cat Cassidy.

But you know that in the cat world, a large belly is simply a sign of success, so you shouldn't be self-conscious. To me, displaying your belly is an invitation to get a tummy rub.<BR/><BR/>We also have one of those Hustler-posing female dogs in our home. All of our male dogs sleep tightly curled up, nose to tail, but the female spreads it all out. I wonder why that is. <BR/><BR/>ps, the Cape Cod place looks very inviting, very peaceful, and an ideal place for long reflective walks.D.K.

In fact, that helped me make a important decision. It seemed that while you people owners kept your cool fairly well, a lot of the people themselves seem to have lost theirs, your owners not included. <BR/><BR/>We all go ballistic occasionally, even you felines. I now have <I><B>4</I></B> of the trouble making monsters, so go fluff up for somebody that might believe you!:)<BR/><BR/>But this seems different than just a fluff up and a few hisses and a lot of glares for a while. I don't really know what is happening to be honest with you: I just know it's not a world I wish to live in, so I dropped by to say goodbye for a spell. I can't promise I"ll stay gone, nor can I promise I'll be back. I just need to sit down with my owners, maybe share a couple tuna sandwiches, then take one of those naps you guys made so famous, and talk things over with my handlers.<BR/><BR/>Take care Baxter.
