This is how I imagine a Flounder 9-1-1 call would go... So going to the doctor not only angered Flounder beyond comprehension and turned her into a feral fish, but it also threw off her very precise routine which resulted in her forgetting to feed Mouse Toy. The amount of drama on "vet day" is overwhelming for everyone involved. We've all seen the poor guy - he can't afford to miss a meal! This was, indeed, a FlounderLand emergency. This is also why I can't ever go on vacation without her...how

The only regret I have about introducing buttons to Flounder is that I didn't do it sooner. Enhancing the way we communicate has improved so many aspects of our relationship from small things, like her being able to tell me which toy she wants specifically to bigger things like telling me when her belly hurts. This, though, is something I didn't think even buttons could help with - until they did. Before I got this new harness, whenever I had the old one in my hand she would run and hide under t

We had a reporter in the house to talk about Flounder's book, "Love You, Mouse Toy", and she got the ENTIRE FlounderLand experience from start to finish - she met Mouse Toy who was on his mushroom watching Pocahontas, she witnessed ballet school and piano playing (with singing), she saw all of the Christmas trees, she got some stern body language from Flounder when I told Flo that she loved Mouse Toy - the whole thing!

If you're new here then you probably don't know that Flounder and I live in house with an alligator moat around our yard. It helps keep the humans away and given that neither of us enjoys interacting with humans, we quite love our alligator moat. That being said, our part of the moat is where the baby alligators play so there's low risk to Flounder when we're out in the yard, but doesn't mean I'm not still careful so please hold onto your alligator knowledge (and lack thereof) for an account tha

I have a lot of things to be thankful for this year, but on the top of that list is seeing Flounder flourish with her new friend: Real Pocahontas. Her confidence has grown in so many aspects since meeting Pocahontas, and it seems like every time she hangs out with Pocahontas, she becomes less and less reactive towards others. Real Pocahontas is somehow making her brave even without a bravery tutu. When Pocahontas is around, she doesn't even consult Mouse Toy as often because she's so confident i

Well, we all saw this coming...Mouse Toy is potty trained now. A few things here: 1. Yes, I'm aware how ridiculous my life is. 2. I now have a mini flushing toilet with happy poop (because of course Mouse Toy poops happy poop) in my bathroom. Add it to the list of weird things you might see in FlounderLand. So the most interesting thing about this is that I never potty trained Flounder to use the people potty. She just told me one day that she wanted to poop in the water, and who am I to deny he

Our first Mouse Toy Monday of the year gives us a lot to unpack! Sometimes Mouse Toy can't decide exactly what he wants, and in the ball it's difficult to narrow it down, so sometimes he will just go ahead and ask for all of the things. Flounder "SAME. This is me at a restaurant when whoever I'm with orders something that sounds good and I don't want to make a decision, so I just say "I'll have the same thing".

So Mouse Toy's presses have been more and more accurate, but this one blew my mind for a few reasons: 1. Flounder has danced around calling Fiki a "cat" before but she's never actually called a cat a "cat" so the idea that she can do that through Mouse Toy is progress, I think. 2. I didn't hear the "cat" press initially because the "outside" press kind of took over the audio and the presses were close together. This would normally lead me to believe that the "cat" press was a coincidence, but I

One doesn't get to almost 100 buttons without learning new words. Flounder LOVES learning new words and any time I add a new button to her board she is always eager to press it to find out which word it is. "Same" and "Real" have been words I've been modeling a lot, and I think she was really excited to use them but couldn't come up with a reason to use them, so she decided to make sure I knew that she is the same and she is also real. I love when she practices her new words because it shows me

I never thought in a million years that I would have a talking purrmaid, but here I am and this is how it all started! If you're a skeptic, I invite you to get a button or two or not even that!

Also important to note: Flounder is NOT a bengal, ocelot, savannah, or whatever else everyone thinks she is. There isn't an actual name for what she is which is why I call her a Purrmaid. I have been tagged in videos of tuxedo cats, calicos, floofs with double coats, and even sphinx (hairless) cats enjoying the water. Wh

Everyone is trying desperately to stay awake until midnight except for Flounder, who is naturally a ball of energy at any point during the day (or night). I did not tell her the Dad Water makes dad happy. This is an observation she made on her own. I did tell her that mom water makes me sick when I was hungover before because she was epically mad at me for not playing that day and I had to

The term "cat fight" exists for a reason. My two love each other, but when they are in the fighting mood, watch out! They can both be super aggressive and Fiki is bigger than Flounder, so I really have to watch that no-one gets hurt. Luckily for me, Fiki isn't one to keep the fight going and. he will more often than not, back down from a Flounder challenge. I can usually count on him to deescalate the situation. What's funny about this interaction is that Flounder acknowledged that Fiki backing

Flounder doesn't like to be touched. She's just that way. To be fair, neither do I. So when Flounder decided she's in the mood for a good head scratch, and presses her "Pets" button, I usually get really excited and run to her to give her head scratches. This time, though, I was working so we had to meet upstairs in my home office. I love that the buttons allow us to communicate our meet up locations for head scratches.

When I took it down 2 years ago she had the biggest tantrum I've ever experienced in my life.

It's a great harness, but not perfect. It definitely succumbed to wear and tear and when I had it on her the way I was supposed to (not pictured), she would slip out of it, so there was definitely room for improvement.

There is nothing Fiki hates more than rain. He loves LOVES rolling in the dry grass in the sunshine. It's his very favorite thing to do. When the sun isn't out and the grass isn't dry - he blames mom. He is hard to live with on days it rains and we recently had a rain spell of 3 days in a row so that was fun...

If you have yelled at me in the past for not putting a life vest on Flounder, then you are probably aware that she HATES life vests. HATES. THEM. I have two small dog life vests that I have tried and tried and tried with her with no success. She's a strong swimmer, so she doesn't need one, but I'm really over the negativity on social media and getting yelled at for everything I do, so I figured I would try one more. This life vest is quite literally the solution to all of our purrmaid problems!

As I suspected a while ago, the uptick in Mouse Toy's activities seems to be due to Fiki getting a new heated bed. Fiki has been glued to his heated bed, which makes him less involved in Flounder's politics. But let me tell you: this man is HAPPY! A typical day for Fiki involves following the sun around the house or positioning himself near or on top of a heat vent (when the heat is on). So getting him a heated bed seemed like the very best gift idea for Fiki, and we were not wrong. He is in lov
