WHAT'S MAJOR TOM THINKING ABOUT TODAY?

THIS IS NOT A GOLDEN CAT CROWN (NO MATTER WHAT THEY TELL YOU!)
 THE CAT'S OUT OF THE BAG:  I was thinking about, worrying about, and losing sleep last week when I thought I was going back to Las Vegas with my previous owner.  As you know, I was adopted in Las Vegas by the Bowman family.  They all loved me and took really good care of me, but their two other cats picked on me because I was smaller.  I also developed some kind of skin condition and would scratch my face.  That's the reason for the "cone."  This fits around your head and neck so you can’t scratch or lick your face (or other parts of your body that need to heal).  This didn't work too well, so when the Deals came to visit that summer and saw the situation, they decided to take me home to Texas with them.  Since then, I have been really happy here with Charlotte, Caesar, and Fiamma.  I'll tell you about that plane trip later!
I DON"T HAVE A HELMET, JAMEY!
Last week, Jamey Bowman came by to visit on his way back from visiting family in Mississippi and Louisiana, where he bought this motorcycle. When Jamey drove up to the house and I saw that motorcycle in the back of his truck, I had two thoughts:  Am I going back to Las Vegas, and am I riding on the back of that motorcycle?  I was so scared that I ran away from Jamey in the house and hid in the bedroom.  As it turns out, he was just staying overnight for a brief visit and to spend the night before he started his long trip back to Las Vegas the next morning. 

I'LL BE BACK, TOM!
This is my way of apologizing to Jamey for being as nervous as a cat in a room full of rocking chairs!  Jamey's a hepcat, and this is his new hunting hat WITH LIGHTS!  It just goes to show:  You can take the boy out of the country, but you can’t take the country out of the boy!  That's enough to make a cat laugh.....http://youtu.be/XLQ9xNgwyIg
