It’s Zaturday, the day we (Ziggy and Zorro) take over Mommy’s blog!<\/p>\n

Ziggy here. Zorro and I have this cool thing at our home in Florida.\u00a0 Mommy calls it a piano, and it makes really neat sounds. Mommy and Daddy both know how to play it. Zorro and I do, too, but it doesn\u2019t sound the same as when Mommy and Daddy play. We still think it sounds good, though.<\/p>\n

\"\"Sometimes Mommy closes the lid on our piano. When that happens, Zorro and I can\u2019t get it to make any sounds. But it\u2019s a comfy place to stretch out. It\u2019s also a perfect spot to watch things outside, because there are two sliding glass doors on the other side of the room.<\/p>\n

We have fun watching the birds. Cats usually like to chase birds, but not these kind. These are huge! There are squirrels out there, too. They run around and climb the trees. If Mommy would let us out, Zorro and I would chase them, but we\u2019d stay away from those birds.\"\"<\/p>\n

Okay, I got sidetracked. (Zorro says I\u2019m easily distracted.) I was talking about playing the piano thing. Mommy told us about a famous cat who has a song named after him. Domenico Scarlotti claimed that his cat Pulcinella helped him compose his Fugue in G Minor<\/em>. So it\u2019s known as The Cat Fugue. <\/em>Scarlotti didn\u2019t call it that, but other people have. Zorro and I think it\u2019s a great name.<\/p>\n

We\u2019re hoping that Mommy and Daddy write a song and name it after us. Actually, Mommy just plays, but Daddy makes up music. (He calls it composing.) When he writes a song about his favorite cats, he can\u2019t call it The Cat Fugue, <\/em>because that\u2019s already taken. But how about Ziggy\u2019s Song<\/em>? Hmmm, has a nice ring, doesn\u2019t it?<\/p>\n
