It's Tortie Tuesday! Lately it seems that all I do around here is help out everyone and today is no exception. After helping Daddy with his finals last week, I'm now helping him get his "honey you'd better do" list done. I'm helping him hang a shelf and making sure he doesn't get it crooked. You notice that I'm staying out of the box behind me since this is work time and I take my job very seriously. Box time comes when the job is done.
Uh oh, I think I hear something going near my box...
No one would dare touch a hard working Tortie's box would they?
Guess all work and no play means Angel takes your box away.

Anyway, hope you have a Happy Tortie Tuesday!
Isabella

I guess you will have to share. Doesn't seem right with you doing all that work. But maybe you will get a special treat.

Not everyone has your strong work ethic, Isabella! We think that box looks big enough for both of you!

Boxes are the best aren't they? Well......with the exception maybe being a laundry basket!

With such a cute helper I don't know how your Daddy gets anything done!

You're the bestest kitty ever...a great helper and you share. So glad to meet you & the rest of your family.

I hope your dad's "honey do list" isn't too long ~ but if you are helping him it should go much smoother and quicker! :)

Hope you have a bliss filled day sweet Isabella!

Helping Daddy AND sharing your box? What a good tortie you are :)

I'm sure you got your box back in the end.
Good job!

You're so sweet to help your dad with his Honey-Do list! Our mom says your dad is very nice to do all that stuff, but we don't think he could do it without you.

Hope your dad's exams went well!

Leslie said... June 15, 2010 at 9:54 AM

Aww! How cute, my friend has a kitty that looks like your little guy.

Mommy is chuckling over the "you'd bettr do list". heh heh

Boxes, you can't turn you back on a good one.

It reminds me of the old legend of the grasshopper and the ant. The ant worked hard while the grasshopper just sat in a box and played his fiddle. Don't remember how that ended.

Isabella, I think you need to take a break!

@Marnie - I think it ended when a cat ate the grasshopper.

MOL~!!! We think you're doing sonderful at your job and furblings are such PITAS!

Marg said... June 15, 2010 at 12:47 PM

Oh Isabella, I hope you get your box back especially since you have worked so hard helping the Dad. It looks like you are in charge of the tape measure. You are such a good girl to be such a big help. We will go tell Angel to move on out of that box. It is her turn to do some chores.
Have a great day.

Nico Designs said... June 15, 2010 at 1:16 PM

Just think. When you get your box back--because you will get it back--it will be nice and warm. And then your Daddy will have to give you a treat for helping him out:)

Ann said... June 15, 2010 at 1:28 PM

I'm sure that Angel will let you have it when you are done working. She knows how tough it is being a shelf hanging assistant.

So, in the Cat world, are Torties in the Working Breed class? You're REALLY putting in a lot of hours lately, Isabella!
Play bows,

The best part of ANYTHING is the box!

Whenever I see a 'tortie tuesday' post, I think of our Samantha who disappeared this past January. She had only one eye and was homeless. If it was a coyote, I just hope it was quick. Every tortie I have interacted with has been SUCH an amazing disposition. And Isabella, you are so beautiful!

For other folks (I consider cats and dogs as persons) reading this, my blog has stories and information helpful for cat caretakers everywhere.

I wish for all the cat blogosphere kitties to stay well!

What a little opportunist she is! And when you're busy being helpful and all. Shocking.

Kathleen said... June 15, 2010 at 10:52 PM

Rascally Angel! Need me to come get that box back?
Forrest, the Queen of all Cats

psst! don't let her do it, Isabella! she'll keep it!
Pal, who knows Forrest very well!

Poor Isabella! I guess Angel isn't so Angelic after all...

We think maybe she is just warming it up for you to take a good nap when your work is done.
