Ear Warning

Sorry we're a little behind on posting here.  We spent a week in the country and then the human had to spend a week recovering from her week in the country so our internet time has been limited.  If you heard a lot of kitty shrieking around the fourth, although with any luck those fireworks covered it up a bit, that's what Brother was complaining about.  And if you heard any shrieking yesterday, we were poking at the family tree again.  Very sorry about that, but we made some nice discoveries, so more shrieking will probably be happening soon.  Guard your ears accordingly.

Ear Protection

Please check that you have sufficient ear protection now, as July is shaping up to be a record month for kitty ranting.  We're taking part once more in a month long event at the library that is sure to lead to him pitching giant fits about the dangers of rabbits being allowed massive, unsupervised access to books.  And then there is the continuing growth of the family tree.  The newest source we have found for encouraging tree growth is working very well, we are happy to announce, and branches are sprouting rapidly.  As we are sure the kitty shrieks had alerted you too.  Please make sure your ear protection is adequate now, is all we can say, because we don't see the noise abating any time soon.

Sorry About Last Night

Sorry about all of the noise last night.  We hope we were able to warn you in time for you to protect your ears.  Really, that cat is most embarrassing with his ranting and raving about cousin Edward and Cousin Malcolm and how he will see any and all of them in a court of law, or more likely their survivors since we were gathering our information on them via obituaries.  Anyway, the human isn't feeling the best tonight, and is thinking about going to bed as soon as we help her make some goodie bags, so hopefully tonight will be a bit quieter as far as Brother throwing fits, anyway.

Cover Your Ears

Cover your ears now!  Hurry while there is still time.  It might take Brother a few moments to work up to a real shriek fest so go fast while you have a chance!  We just discovered a way to uncover a ton of info on the family tree and he is sure to be unhappy to say the least, so protect yourselves while you still can!  Go fast!  We think we hear him starting to rant about Cousin William E. so there isn't much time left!  Cover your ears now!

Christmas Apologies

First off, we would like to offer our apologies to anyone who was missing presents that they were expecting to find from Santa under the tree this year.  Due to rain, we didn't visit the country like we were hoping, and thus Betsy Bear was able to raid Santa's sack and give his poor reindeer such a fright that they are probably seeking therapy even as we speak.  If you are missing food gifts, they have been eaten.  We're sorry about that.  If you're missing some other item, please contact Betsy about ransom demands.

In addition to apologizing for Betsy, which is something we seem to do with every major holiday, we would also like to apologize for all of the kitty shrieks.  The human managed to find a major branch on her family tree last night and we spent hours helping her poke at it.  Brother was not happy though, and apparently he has someone's cell phone permanently, although why they are paying a bill for a phone that is in the paws of a cat, we will never know, but anyway, he kept texting us all night, demanding to know why he was hearing a tree growing, and to stop whatever we were doing to encourage that horrible tree to grow at once.  Really, we're very sorry about that, and we hope the noise didn't spoil anyone's Christmas.

Warning

We thought we better warn you to put your ear protection on right away.  We found that the historical newspapers are online and easy to search.  We have already found two obituaries to help grow the family tree and Brother isn't taking it well at all.  He's ranting about seeing the library in court for doing something this terrible and how they should be ashamed of themselves for encouraging that tree's growth and what if a nut tumbles off of a limb?  Please take precautions now.  We have a long list of human relations to look up so it will probably be a long and annoying night.

Sorry, Very Sorry

Our apologies to anyone who might have been trying to enjoy television, or possibly go to bed early, and were disturbed by kitty shrieks.  The library sent us a lovely batch of obituaries and Brother didn't take their popping up in our email well.  You should probably put your ear protection on and keep it on, because the librarian asked if there was anything more she could do for us, and we do happen to have a few suggestions for things that might be helpful.  More shrieks are expected at any second.  Sorry about that.

Saturday Report

We didn't do much on the family tree today if you were wondering why things were a bit quieter than normal.  We're awaiting those obituaries arriving in our email at the moment, to confirm a few things, which has slowed us down a bit.  Hopefully things will pick up soon, though.  We are so close to a few major breakthroughs and we just want to continue hoping along our path of progress.  If you hear loud shrieks, you will know a breakthrough has occurred.

Very Sorry

We're very sorry if the kitty shouts and threats ruined anyone's Friday.  We hopped to that archive this morning and Brother didn't take it well.  And then when we hopped home, we found a way to get our paws on a big batch of obituaries, and we think you can guess how well he took that.  We're very sorry about all of the noise.  We expect this weekend to be rather loud as well, as we are on the verge of locating Cousin Cordelia.  Please protect your ears accordingly.

Today's Apology

We're very sorry for the noise today.  We hopped to the country, visited an archive, ordered a tree and then sent a friend request to someone on Facebook who can hopefully help more with the human's genealogy.  Brother is not pleased, and has been making threats against Facebook.  We're just glad he doesn't know the password for the Facebook account, so he can't log on and try to either cancel the friend request or unfriend the person we're hoping for genealogy assistance from.

Very Sorry

We hope you put your ear protection on early is all that we can say, along with offering up apologies for the noise this evening.  We happened to find Cousin James Robert at long last after searching for him for months and months in the genealogy sources online.  We also have located six more of his children and two grandchildren so far.  Brother is not taking it well at all, so you should probably cover your poor ears now if you haven't already.  We're expecting more shouting shortly.

Relative Issues

The humans might have to go and look in on an ill relation this weekend.  You might wonder why that news is resulting in the kitty shouting fest.  Well, this relation has scheduled his illness to occur near libraries and archives the human has been meaning to drop by so if the humans have to go visit, the trip might serve double duty.  And of course Brother isn't pleased at all about it.  We suggest keeping ear protection close at hand this weekend.  We are sure you will need it.

Today's Report

The human's allergies continue to be messed up, leading to decreased computer time for us.  If anyone has noticed a decreased number of feline shrieks, that is what it is due to.  The allergies are seeming a tiny bit better tonight, though, so we have high hopes of kicking the genealogy into high gear come tomorrow.  Paws crossed for that.

Tonight's Report

Sorry for any shrieks that might have disturbed you today.  We're not sure what has Brother so ticked this time.  The human's allergies are messed up, so she slept most of the day, meaning we couldn't get online to do anything on the family tree.  Maybe it was what the grandhuman suggested for next week, possibly going on a trip to the big genealogy archive out of town?  We do hope that works out.  It would be a ton of fun, and might end with the human having another few books ready for selling.  And there go the shrieks again.

Short Report

We attended that Civil War thing today, and we do hope the kitty shrieks didn't ruin anyone's Sunday or disrupt Sunday sermon.  The human sold a genealogy book and has hopes of selling more soon, and Brother did not take it well.  And Betsy Bear learned that the humans have for some foolish reason placed their cannons on wheels.  We're not sure why they wold do something so dangerous.  Cannons on wheels.  It's practically an invitation for Betsy to walk off with a cannon.  We think you can guess what happened.

Today's Shrieking Update

Due to rain, we are going to that Civil War thing tomorrow.  Unfortunately, the delay didn't effect the level of shouting, due to our finding out the whereabouts and married name of Cousin Blanche and all of her relations.  Brother didn't take that well at all.  Sorry about that, but we did warn you to protect your ears, we would like to point out.

Additional Apology

We're sorry if you were awakened just now.  Finding Cousin George and Cousin Edna led to our finding Cousin Mary just seconds ago.  We hope the kitty shriek didn't alarm anyone excessively.  Please go back to sleep.

So Sorry

We're so sorry for all of the noise today.  Brother has been truly rotten, and we hope he hasn't disturbed the peace too much.  We found out that we can access a ton of different newspapers and info online thanks to the grandhuman, and we were able to the nicest obituary for Cousin Michael, detailing all of his extended relations.  Brother didn't take it well to say the least.  Really, we are very sorry.  And we just found out where Cousin George and Cousin Edna are buried, so we don't expect tonight be be any quieter.  If you need to sleep, you should probably stuff your ears now.

Very Sorry

We're very sorry if the sudden kitty shriek just now disturbed you.  We might have just found out some new information on Cousin Cordelia, and Brother is not happy.  But really, when is that cat every happy?  He's so annoying.  And we are afraid to think of how he will react if we are able to call out to Kansas tomorrow to order a court case file that will hopefully identify a ton of relatives and their locations.  Be prepared to cover your ears.

Still Annoyed

The human is still sniffling over that rotten, rotten cat today, and our poor fur is still endangered.  Really, he should be so ashamed of himself for what he has been doing, and for making our poor human cry.  Really, he should.  But we see no signs of shame yet.  Just texts demanding to know if we just found Cousin Richard's email, and threats as to what will happen if we don't forget that contact information immediately.  We are halfway tempted to write Cousin Richard a long and meaningful letter just to annoy Brother.
