Man-Cat of the Week

Well, as you know, we have our Queen. But, I ask you, is the week complete without a Man-Cat of the Week? I say no! Therefore, after searching high and low, I have found HE who represents ALL Man-Cats. Who could fill such a role? Why, MrScrubby, of course!

What does being a man-cat mean to you?

I learned that it takes mad skills to be a scrubilicious man-cat. You gotta have strong purrs, big jumps, and a loud flop on newspapers (or other piles of important work) when you want some rubbins. I also believe that being a man cat takes rhythm and good groove. I like to get down to Motown tunes, 70s punk, and 80s new wave. There's nothing better than watching birds out of the window while listening to Smokey Robinson, The Pretenders, or The Smiths. That's how I roll.

How does it affect your roll in the family?

As the man-cat, I try to be humble but it's so hard. Everyone wants a piece of me. I have three sisters and a brother, and I can only be handsome and gregarious for so long without getting a little cranky.

When I need a break from my family, I climb into the basement rafters and take a snooze. Sometimes I sleep under the covers. I just need a break from the limelight. Here's a video where I was interviewed by a local journalist.

Whoa, soundz like I still have lotz to learn about being a Man-Cat. I hope I can gain his self confidence and modestly. MOL

Seriously though folkz, I think Scrubby is a cat that knowz where it’z at, and I find him to be a great role model and Man-Cat. I strongly encourage you to stop by his pawesome blog and learnz more about this fine feline!

Thanks Scrubby, I am soo happy you was able to share some of your story wif CWT today. You DA CAT!

And, as always, thank YOU for stopping by!

What does being a man-cat mean to you?

I think iz important fur man-cats to be good community role models. They say nice guyz finish last, but in mai experience I gets bettur rewards being nice. Like this one time, I gots inna http://www.orangecatblues.com/2008/12/wednesday-wow-15-seconds-on-racism.html">Super Bowl commercial just by saying something nice!

Iz also important to help out around the home. Like, mai sistur, Luna, she getting too old to teach little onez, so I takes uver training Laz our zombie cat when she moved in.

(I not sure I iz that good at that, cuz she still has a case uv the bitey, but being a big brofur iz on the job training. I sure she turns out OK.)

Also, I think it's important to pass on wat we learned to the othur kittehs. Maybe it keeps them frum making mistakes, maybe not, but at leest they has the benefit uv your Xperience. Iz wai I started making videos like this one:

Being a man-cat iz not that diffrent frum being a queen cat these dayz.

How does it affect your roll in the family?

Iz mai responsibility to makes sure mai primates iz happee and healthy. Fur example, I insist on tasting there foods fur them. I no eets much uv there vegetables cuz they need moar uv them than I do, but I do insist dere's nothing wrong wif da chickawn oar tuna oar milks.

Iz important to stay active and put as much energies as possible into spreading good cheer. When I izn't napping. I think I'z good at that, cuz mai primate makes me into a cartoon inna book that helps out mai sheltur, and nao she iz wurking full-time on Etsy making kitty pendants. Also, I has a blog nao on mai own website, http://orangecatblues.com">Orange Cat Blues and effurything. And twitter, uv corse!


Also, is important to know when hoomanz izn't feeling well. Sumtimes they need yoo to loaf on their tummy so they has an excuse to use the snooze alarm. Sometimes they need an extra headbutt or to watch yoo play wif a Q-tip oar doo something else funny so they laughs a little and passes their happiness on to other hoomans latur. I likes to play a little and tell jokes:

=^..^=

BEEP, BEEP, BEEP… Hearz dat? That’s the certified Man-Cat alarm going off. Isn't Loki pawesome?! It’s no wonder he’s such a popular cat. I just don’t know how he manages to do all he does.

I has to tell you though… One thing that bothers me about this fine kitty is that the pattern for his shirts is available through his website. What’z wrong wif dat? Well… My silly mom keeps sayin she’s going to make me one of dos shirts one day. Oh, how I hopez she forgets!

I would like to say a special thank you to my pal Loki, cause I really appurreciate him taking the time to share some of his wisdom wif us.

Of course, I haz to thank you (yeah, YOU) for stopping by and getting to know my pal a little better.

What a better way to do this than present you with a new Man-Cat of the Week?

What does being a man-cat mean to you?

Being a man-cat means I must protect ma family, ma garden and ma toys.
I am very close to ma humans as they were there for me when I lost ma kitteh mumma at only three weeks old. We haz a very close bond, but don't get me wrong I iz no push over. I only do wots I wants to do and when I wants to do it.

How does it affect your roll in the family?

I iz da man of da house. I am a ruff and tumble boy. I play ruff wif Human1, but rarely Human2. I iz da only male in a house wif 5 felmales makes it hard to finds your own space, if you know wot I means.

Who am I fooling? I do haz my own space! For instance takes ma chair, no humans can sits in it only me. Sometimes I will allow one of my older sisters to sits in it if I am feeling generous, which iz not too often. I iz da youngest in da house, but I still rule da roost. I love ma humans and even ma sisters (although I don't show the sisters how I feels -- I iz a man after all).

=^..^=

As you can see, Boris is a Man-Cat wif cattitude! Don’t let his words fool you though, I’z been hang out with Boris for a while now, and he’s a big softy at heart. He is also a very generous kitty, he’s had a few contests over at his blog, and also shares his opinionz about a few of the pawesome toys he plays with. If you didn’t know Boris before today, this kitty thinks you should go introduce yourself to him, and get better acquainted with your new friend.

Thank you Boris for being Man-Cat of the Week, and for being my pal!

Thank you to you, my readers for continuing to stop by and checking up on all the cats who twitter!!!
