Tuesday Haikusday: Fur and a Film

Today, I want to talk about something we have and people don’t. That’s right: fur.  Eh hem…

Look at it. Look at my fur. It's festive for the holidays.
Look at it. Look at my fur. It’s festive for the holidays.

Soft, silky, short, sleek

Striped, gray, black, brown, mottled red

So many choices.

I am always warm

You pay for coats and mittens

It sucks to be you.

.

You want to touch it

I’m going to charge you for that

Me: entrepreneur.

There it is! What do you think of fur? How many colors are in your house?

Speaking of charging for pets, check out this new CATastrophes film featuring Peabody and the seemingly ever-present Louie.

Love,

Crepes.

  • Crepes, your haiku is spot on! I love it! The video cracked me up–as always. I needed a good laugh. Just found out that Bean has THREE kinds of cancer-mast cell tumor issues, leukemia, and T-cell lymphoma (which is good news in a twisted sort of way). It is just about everywhere in his body. Will be starting his chemo soon.

    In praise of fur and being a cat-huffing addict…

    Fur, glorious fur
    Proper for all occasions
    No dry cleaning bills

    So many colors
    Tuxie and tabby rainbows
    Never out of style

    Sleek, soft, fuzzy, warm
    Mom can’t get enough of it
    Think I’ll hide right now

    Purrs…

  • Between my ticked, ruddy fur (at least six bands of color on each strand!), Binga’s multi-colored fur and Boodie’s bi, kind of tri-colored fur, we are pretty colorful here!

    BTW, I LOVED your video. And I am rather stingy with my purr jobs.

  • We LOVE that idea. We have four colors in our house: white, black, brown and grey! Of course, Mom and Dad volunteer at the shelter all the time, so the color possibilities are boundless around here. MOL!

  • hahaha….great idea…charge for services given…hahaha I really enjoyed the video and so did mom Crepes. A purr job….hahaha. There is only one Crepes. Penelope added to the talking with her expressive face. Loved it.

    (((Shoko)))

  • Crepes you are so cute. I hope you and your family have a Merry Christmas!

  • Another purrfect video! Mom and Dad laughed and laughed. We received our Secret Paws yesterday. Mom hasn’t let us open anything YET! We will blog about it on Thursday, so we hope she’ll let us open then. Alana, Mom did look at your drawing of Astrid. It is so beautiful, and she is overwhelmed that you did that for her. Thank you so, so much! Ho, ho, ho, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

  • I loooove fur and interesting colors/patterns in fur. I could have charged big money for touching Tucker’s fur. He had the thickest, softest fur.

  • So many colors! We have lots of fur colors at our house too. Hmm… charging for snuggles and pets. That’s a genius idea, Crepes. We would be millionaires.
