wubert and carrot–together again
Wubert re-discovers the fun of root vegetables!
food! [and a quick narnia bit w/ a mild spoiler]
First things first: pictures can be misleading. Wubert has actually been on a bit of a diet as of late. So though he is naturally curious [like most cats] about all things soup, pizza, and fried rice, he usually doesn’t partake much beyond a sniff or a nibble. Wubie knows he has to drop a few oz’s!
Oh, a quick bit about The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. There’s a bit of a spoiler here regarding a particular power possessed by a character in the film, so if you haven’t seen the movie and don’t want to know what the power is, you can stop here.
Anyway…
Since we don’t go to the theaters much, usually preferring Netflix DVD’s at home to the neighborhood multiplex, we didn’t get a chance to see this fine movie until last night.
The quick bit: the movie’s noble lion, Aslan, reminded us a great deal of ol’ Wubie [I'm sure this doesn't need to be explained any further to the viewers of this site!] The part that sealed the deal: near the end of the movie, Aslan reveals a magical power that involves exhaling his breath into the face of others. Immediately upon seeing this, I shouted “ASLAN HAS CRUNCHIE BREATH–JUST LIKE WUBERT!”
Yes, Wubert lives mainly on a diet of dry cat food, aka “crunchies”. Every now and then, I [or some other hapless victim] will find himself face to fuzzy face w/ ol’ Wubie immediately following one of his not infrequent trips to the food bowl. Let me tell ya right now: a picnic for the olfactory senses it is not. I’ve taken to calling these occasions “dates w/ ol’ crunchie breath”.
Little did I know “crunchie breath” was such an extraordinary power! I mean, I knew it made me a bit woozy, but…
fun with mr. piggy
Wubert has lots of toys, but he totally plays favorites. Case in point: Mr. Piggy is his current “#1 go-to plush.” If you take a close look at this pic, in addition to seeing el pudge having a great ol’ time w/ Mr. Piggy, you’ll also discover former “A-Lister” Mr. Carrot stewing in a bouillabaisse of jealousy and neglect in the background. Tasty.
