Blue Cat Helps with the Prom

It was prom time at Blue Cat’s house recently – very exciting! Blue Cat wasn’t able to go to the prom (since he’s a little young for such activities), but he decided to help out by providing a car service for his scribe’s daughter and her friends so they could get there in style. He […]

Blue Cat Picks the Wrong Tool

Blue Cat wanted some ice cream, and so he got it out of the freezer and looked for something to dish it out with. Blue Cat has lots of spoons at his house, and so it was easy to find a spoon to do the dishing. And he was going to eat it with a […]

Blue Cat Plans to Influence a Judge

Blue Cat’s scribe is testing for his 3rd degree black belt in Taekwondo, and he’s really worried that he might get a “down-check” at his recommendation test this weekend.

Blue Cat Reads the Directions

Blue Cat wanted a nice treat after last week’s meat loaf, and he decided on some Botan Rice Candy. It even had a free “children’s sticker” inside (which he was hoping would be fun for a crocheted cat as well). He ran into trouble, though – the candy had two wrappers on it, and the […]

Blue Cat and Recovering From Disaster

According to some, the world ends (or at least experiences a major disaster) today.

Blue Cat’s creator is going to a party […]

Blue Cat (Doesn’t) Defend His Rice Bowl

Blue Cat was hanging out at the table before dinner the other night, and (as usual) something ordinary activated the “metaphor” part of his brain. This time it was the bowl of rice on the table, which he was particularly attached to. (Blue Cat loves rice, especially the brown kind). His first thought was to […]

Blue Cat Discovers that “There’s Always a Bigger Cat”

Blue Cat was feeling a little inadequate today because of a new cat in the neighborhood. Blue Cat sees himself as pretty successful and very happy, but then he saw this guy putting in a new storm drain down the street… At first Blue Cat felt bad because he wasn’t as big or strong as […]

Blue Cat Prepares for an Astronomical Event

Something big is coming, and Blue Cat is getting prepared. No, it’s not the end of the Mayan Calendar, nor is it the last triple date of the century (12/12/12). It’s something a lot more scientific, and a lot more fun, too Blue Cat is getting ready for the Geminid Meteor Shower this Thursday (December […]

Blue Cat Discovers the Meaning of Life

Today Blue Cat was looking for one of his creator’s old cookbooks so he could make popcorn truffles for Family Home Evening snack. He was in a real hurry, but he didn’t find the cookbook. He did, however, discover something about life in general… What Blue Cat discovered is that sometimes what you’re doing becomes […]

Blue Cat Finds His Way

Back in the olden days (when Blue Cat’s scribe was the chief of plans for an unnamed government agency), we used to plan for the future with “roadmaps” – a strategic plan that laid out where we were, where we were going, and how to get there. But that doesn’t work anymore, because the environment […]
