NO hold up there boys there's NOT going to be any whitefish waves or fish a fied posts today but we WILL wave to my simply FABulous and gorgeous gal pal Jazmine who snuck out of the house and took the red eye to trout towne to do an interview today with ME Dai$y queen of the run on sentence and queen of cats so please give a warm welcome to Jaz so I can start my interview YAY
applause applause
Thanx Jazmine for stopping by today, may I say you are
looking FABulous with a capital S for super
Dai$y; Here, please help yourself to some refreshing cat-mint
tea and I've got several copies of the shopping ads I pulled from today's
newspaper here's one for the jewelry store the mall we can visit the bank to
see if they will give us any cash and we should totally visit the handbag store
as I hear beige is THE new in color this spring like why I don't know and please
do forgive me you know I am the queen of the run on sentence and this isn't about me
today so tell me about your new book "Makin Biscuits"
Jazmine: Did you say beige
handbags? With my Super FABulous ginger fur coat and white mittens and bib, I
would look smashing with a beige bag. Or maybe lavender...lavender would be a
lovely contrast to my golden topaz eyes. Wait. I think I should get both
colors. Well, actually, I look stunning in any color. How much cash did you say
the bank was giving us? Hold on a sec. What? Book? Oh, sorry...my human is in
the background yelling something about me needing to talk about my new book.
Yeah I have a new book - it's getting totally awesome reviews and everyone
seems to really love it - it's funny, quirky, sweet, charming and more. But
aren't we going shopping? I really wanted a new purse...
Boomer: hay...wood ewe
like a date..wink wink ;)
Dai$y; quiet boomer no she doesn't want a date go back to sleep
or what ever it was you were doing please beg my most humble Jazmine how
ridiculous boys are but then I'm guessing you sooooooo totally already know
that
Jazmine: Boys? Hmpf. I'm a
big girl now and practically a household name. I've got like 34 followers on
Facebook. Cher. Madonna. Lady Gaga.
Jazmine. If you've got a mancat to introduce me to then we can talk. What?
Geez. Never mind. It's my human again. She just reminded me I'm in a steady,
loving relationship with Kizmet. We actually live together in the same house
and share a couple shelves together on the cat condo in the dining room. Do you
mind keeping this under wraps? It's not like you're going to make this
interview public, right? Muah - love ya Kizmet! ♥♥♥
Dai$y; my stars girl do you know when I first saw the title of
your new book I said gracious if Jazmine hasn't opened her own bakery what with
the biscuits word in the title and all and I daresay I hope she's included
crepes on the list of thing to buy
Jazmine: I had suggested the title be “Makin' biscuits covered in
gravy with a side of fried chicken and an extra helping of mashed potatoes and
corn with a brownie for desert" and was shocked when I found out the
actual title was Makin' Biscuits - Weird
Cat Habits and the Even Weirder Habits of the Humans Who Love Them. Not one
single cat food recipe in the entire book. Zero. Zip. Nada. Nothing but
anecdotes from cat lovers around the world sharing stories about some of the
odd or strange things their cats have done. Quite disappointing and very
misleading, I must say. Honestly, if it weren't for the fact I'm the starring
cat on the book cover with my likeness done in the cutest illustration ever,
and that the book is filled with dozens of hilarious, irresistible, and
charming stories about me, along with adorable pictures of me with cute
captions, the book would be nearly impossible to read.
Dai$y; so was it terribly hard picking WHO got to be in your new
book you know word on the street was you
had well over 20 million submissions for all things weird and did you know my
brother boomer is weird well cousin tuna is for that matter as well
Jazmine: Well, I guess it could have been hard. Not for me though. I have an excellent staff, i.e., my human, who took care of all the minor details like writing the book, weeding through the gazillions of submissions, researching all the cat facts and figures, editing the book, formatting the book, designing the book cover and back, and publishing and marketing the book. From what I gather, she took all the submissions and put them into different "weird" categories to help her figure out which ones to use in each of the individual chapters. She found that us kitties have a lot of universally similar habits - like the habit we have of stealing whatever chair our human is sitting on when they get up for two seconds to go get a cup of coffee, so those stories went into the chapter entitled "Is This Seat Taken?"
Dai$y; how many hours did it take you to complete your novel 10,
100, 10,000, 100,000 though seriously this isn't multiple choice just wondering
Jazmine: Umm. Let's see.
Multiply my life times 467,482 hours of napping divided by 1843 meals times
several face swats to Peanut and Mia divided by playing with the square root of
DaBird. I think it's about 10 hours or maybe it was 10 minutes. What? What now?
Ugh. My human is screaming something about it taking nearly every living,
breathing moment of the past 2 years of her life. Geez. She's so overly
dramatic. I was pretty close. She really needs to take a catnap.
Dai$y: you know one of the many weird things I
purrsonally do yes I do admit to doing weird too but you know I've climbed many
a thing and I often wonder why I haven't climbed the FORTUNE 500 LADDER
Jazmine: I love ladders -
not that I've ever climbed one - it seems like an awful lot of work for no real
reason. Unless there's a snack at the top of the ladder. Or a lizard. Is there?
Hmmm. Can someone please get me a ladder?
Dai$y; do spill the beans as they say what really super weird
thing you do that you refused to have printed this is just between us well that
and the readers of my post today
Jazmine: Well, I never…Me?
Do something weird? Hmmpf. I'm a refined, dignified, precious, divine, and
perfect creature. Weird? Umm, well, is it weird to sleep on a hard, unforgiving
tile floor on your back with your belly fully exposed for the whole world to
see while pressed against a wall even though there are all kinds of soft and
comfortable beds and pillows to sleep on instead? No? I didn't think so either.
Nope. I can't answer this question because I don't do anything weird.
Dai$y; you know my name is on cottage cheese it is
please tell your mom to look for it next time she's at the market and speaking
of the market did you have to practice writing your name for book paw tographs
you know you could have a fancy J and a fancy Z or a fancy Z and plain M
Jazmine: A plain M? What
about peanut M&M's? Oh wait, I do recall this from my book - chocolate and
nuts are very bad for cats and we should never, ever, ever be allowed to eat
them. Why can't M&M's be made out of shrimp, with a yummy gravy coating? Mmmm....I'm
hungry. What was the question again?
Dai$y do you ever fear
that if dogs get a hold of this book they will be talking about us cats and our
weirdness around the fire hydrant for decades to come
Jazmine: A slobbering,
drooling dog getting a hold of this book? Yuck. What a mess that would be - the
pages would be all gross and soaking wet. Unbearable to think about. Oh? Sorry,
I guess it wasn't a literal question. Yes. I do admit I was a bit worried - an
entire book spilling the beans on the inner mechanism of how a cat's mind works
in the paws of a dog? It had the potential for some serious collateral damage,
like them understanding an unblinking stare into their naive eyes meant a quick
and swift swat to their nose was about to happen. But I know dogs. They've been
in my house. A lot. Honestly all it takes is one diversion and everything they
think they know about us kitties is forgotten. Squirrel outside, shake of a
treat bag, a jiggle of a door handle, or even a simple pat to their head and
it's like the book never existed. Or is that me I'm talking about? Darn it - is
that a lizard on the wall? Gotta go!
Dai$y; goodness before I start my next run on sentence please
advise everyone where they can buy your book
Jazmine: Thanks for asking
Dai$y. There are lots of ways to get the book - some people like to order from
this new-fangled place called Amazon.com - which who even knows if that will
take off or not, and some like to have a book with an actual autograph from the
author, and some like to do some weird thing where they walk all over a
keyboard with their fingers and the book magically appears on a phone or
computer screen. My human has made it super easy - just go to this link and the
page will give you all the options to choose from: http://zeezoey.com/the-book.php
Dai$y; and can we expect
a Makin Biscuits part Deux
Jazmine: Well, much as
there is enough material for another book, after all, we kitties are endlessly
fascinating, I think my human is taking a break from book writing for awhile.
If she ever entertains the idea again it would require some serious thinking,
because even though the premise of Makin'
Biscuits is fun and simple, underneath it all is a book filled with lots of
research on cat behavior. She'd have to figure out how to write another one
without repeating the same information. I think she should just write a book
about me and call it a day.
Dai$y; Jazmine have you
ever wondered with all the cat cafes popping up all over the world indeed they
are beyond fantastic and marvelous but did you ever wonder what would happen if
we as cats go just walk through the front door of a cat cafe and maybe order something then
have a visit with the cats like what... they surely aren't going to say NO CATS
ALLOWED you know
Jazmine: Yes. I do imagine that - it sounds like a marvelous day
and I would love to model my new handbag while sipping some cat-mint tea and
chatting with the clowder of the day. But then I realize I'm terrified to ride
in the car, so when they say NO CATS ALLOWED maybe it’s just cuz most of us don’t
like to travel. Could the cat cafe be in my backyard?
Dai$y; my stars girl look at the time if we're to catch that
sale at the handbag store we must be away post haste thanx ever so much for
stopping by today and sharing... hugs girl let's go
Jazmine: Thank you so much
Dai$y. This interview has been FABulous. I know I didn't talk about it much, well,
actually I didn't talk about it at all, but my human really hopes that lots of
people will read Makin' Biscuits cuz
it's not just fun and games and handbags for us kitties. Much as I can't
imagine it, a lot of cats don't have warm beds to nap on or bowls filled with
yummy food and fresh water. There are millions of cats living on the streets
and in shelters and from what I've been told by reliable sources that can be a
super scary, dangerous, sad, lonely, and tough life for a cat.
My human wants every cat to have a warm, loving, and happy
life and much of that stems with understanding cat behavior. Makin' Biscuits was written in a way
that not only entertains, but EDUCATES. Because the more humans understand how
and why we behave the way we do, the more likely we will be provided with the
proper environment befitting our instinctual feline nature. And by doing that,
it means we'll be less likely to be dumped into shelters for issues such as
poor litter box habits or scratching furniture - undesirable habits to humans
that can easily be misdirected if only humans understood how we tick.
So in that regard, not only is the reader treated to oodles
of great stories about me and some of my wild and crazy behaviors (and my
fellow cat-mates, Zee, Zoey, Mia, Peanut, Rolz, and Kizmet) the reader is also
treated to stories from other cat lovers, along with an easy to understand
explanation of why we do the things we do (despite being a complicated
creature, we're actually quite simple when you break it down - meaning what you
humans might consider "weird" we just consider being "cat"),
and the best part, my human then shares all kinds of great advice and tips on
how to keep us kitties as optimally happy and healthy as we can be. It truly is
a win for all of us - humans and cats - because let's be honest, us cats are
awesome and all of us should be in forever homes to prove that.
Dai$y; indeed Jazmine that's something we all can agree too and so like should we take the subway or a cab to the bank I think we should totally head there first as ~~~~~~~~~~
