Random Cat Pics and A Little Song

December 11, 2008 at 10:09 pm (Music, Writing)

Evvie and her brother from another mother, Velcro (this was taken shortly after she flew in to Van)

My cat’s name is Evelyn. Her breath smells like cat food.

To the tune of Hall & Oates’ “You Make My Dreams”†

Well you track around a metric tonne of litter
You’re a filthy little critter
You mess up my happy home
There were times I thought I’d make you into a sweater
Now wouldn’t that be better
But then I’d be alone, aw yeah

Because you, you are my Evvie Loo [Loo loo, loo, loo, looloo, loo, loo]
Well, well well, you, aw yeah, you are my Evvie Loo [Loo loo, loo, loo, looloo, loo.]

There are times when you are yelping in the hallway

Evvie as a baby, and Mr. Goodtimes (ne Ian Goodhue)

I think you do things the hard way
You could wait until the dawn
But your tone’s so sweet, you make us laugh and snicker
And I suppose that your way’s quicker
To get your dinner on, oh yeah, I said

you, you are my Evvie Loo [Loo loo, loo, loo, looloo, loo, loo]
Well, well well, you, aw yeah, you are my Evvie Loo [Loo loo, loo, loo, looloo, loo.]

EVELYN SOLO:

Listen to this! Brrrrrrrang? Braaaaaang? Breeeow?

ME:

You soundlike a caaaaar alarm, but you don’t have any lips, it’s okay….

Heck yes! you, you are my Evvie Loo [Loo loo, loo, loo, looloo, loo, loo]
Well, well well, you, all night, you are my Evvie Loo [Loo loo, loo, loo, looloo, loo.]

†USER NOTE:  This is pretty cute if you just read it, but it’s much funnier if you listen to the song and read it at the same time, and it’s extra-funny if you picture me singing it to Evelyn, as I just did.
