CAT ART SUNDAY ON GOING TO MAUI!

United Airlines will take the beans away to Maui. Mommy was dressed years ago for this occasion when she was eight.

My good friend Angus Mhor showed me how to TRANSMORGIFY...so this is how I am getting to come along with them on their adventure to the tropics! Do you like the cute little mini me. She even has the very same blaze and my frootbat ears. He furs are buttery soft like mine. Yes, I do think this will work!
I have my four bikini tops packed to cover up all the little bits and the sun screen lotion...a redhead can never be too careful in the sun! That is Pixie there with me. She can eat all of the bananas she wants now!!
I am going to take hula lessons from a great island legend Queen Anastasia of Hawaiian White Ginger Blossom... I will miss you all so unbearably much while I am away. I would ask that you please purrray for me so that I will be well and do not get sick again like last year. Mommy is very worried about this! I will be home again next Wednesday. I pray you all will be safe and happy while I am gone. Mahalo<

STUFFED AND SILLY ON SATURDAY! HEY IT IS LAPDADDIES BIRTHDAY TODAY!!

Well by now most of you know how many places I have slept in, my frying pan, the litter girls room box, my blue fuzzy, the crinkle sack for three nano seconds (that's why it is up for auction until midnight today!)...but this snozzzzing place....well it tops them all!

DO you think mommy is rather well endowed:)?

This is the entry way.

What did you say mommy...you feel like you are pregnant!?

OK here is your 4 and a half pound baby!

Do you see this beautiful ginger baby squillion watching over me as I sleep on my beautiful Gizzy quilt! If you biggy the photo, you can read the cool card that came with it! Thank you ever so much...now Alice has a new friend. I am going to name her Hazel!

Today is my Lapdaddies birthday and my beans wedding anniversary! They are very happy with each other here in the cozy cottage...we wish all the people in the world could be so happy and have a nice cat like me:)

FURRLESS FRIDAY!

We all agree that eating is a very important part of any kitty cats day. No matter if one is 15 years old...

Or a newborn kit!
These beautiful Sphynx kittens are just born to mom Rita. Three boys and one little precious girl named Dreamy. They belong to Diana Nelson who gave me to mommy way back in 2001.
Dreamy looks just like her mommy Rita. She looks like a very healthy promising little kitten. It will be fun to watch her grow up.

Mommy is packing up colorful clothes things into her suitcase...I am still trying to figure out a way to get to go along. Angus had an idea on his blog that I think I might explore a little more...

What do you think?

MOMMY WAS BUSY...SO JUST IN CASE, I HELPED MYSELF!

Yes, your HONOR, I did help myself! Mommy was busy wandering around outside and would not help me blog. So I did it. I printed put my blog all by myself. Do you believe me?

Creeping phlox, tulips, grape hyacinths are in bloom and the iris and peonies are stretching themselves taller.
See! I did a good job! Bigafy and look at the page numbers in the upper right corner.
The Mommy here: As I was coming back into the house, I heard the printer going. It seems Miss Peach was sitting on my Laptop and decided to print out her blog. ALL OF IT! See those page numbers? I stopped the printer at page three...goodness what was she thinking! I can not leave her alone for a minute before she takes matters into her own paws!

Sunshine Superman by Donovan

Music from the day when life was simple and our country had hope for a brighter future. Oh how we should have savoured those days...gone but not forgotten.

SUNSHINE CAME SOFTY THROUGH MY WINDOW TODAY...

Our beloved friends Lilly Lu, Mu Shue and Iris have been restored to their mommy Laura and are eating a most happy meal after their long and horrible nightmare in the burning building!!!

Dearest Lord...we give thanks for answered purrrayers and petitions<><

OUR BELOVED MIRAL HAS QUIETLY SLIPPED AWAY TO THE RAINBOW BRIDGE IN HEAVEN

Beautiful Miral has fought such a brave battle to stay with her beloved family as long as she could. Today she was called up into heaven while she was peacefully sleeping. We who are left behind are filled with sadness and ache.

Our hearts are heavy this weekend for the pain of our friends Lilly Lu, Mu Shue and Iris...but we will hold on to HOPE with all we can!

HOLDING HOPE FOR OUR DEAR FRIENDS...

As reported on the CB yesterday: Please purr and pray for Mu shue, Lilly Lu and Iris, and for all the pets and beans who might be trapped in the building that was on fire, and for the families and friends who must wait and watch.

Send all your love and prayer to them in Massachusetts. They have been through so very much with Lilly Lu going to Tufts for her medical problems and mommy Laura having two baby beans inside of her right now. My time on the patio will be filled with loving thoughts for all those who are worried and waiting...though there is crying in the night we pray for rejoicing in the morning...<><

A Knock at the Duir

This is for Tookies mommy to chase away the cobwebs!

MY FIRST TRIP OUT ON THE PATIO!

I am walking up the step back into the house from my little trip out into the fresh air. The birds were making chattering noises while flying all about!
Mommy gathered daffodils for the table so Lapdaddy would be glad of them...
"The earth came alive today

The flowers cried 'Hurray! Hurray!

'The sun shines bright, with all her might

So fly little faerie Fly fly fly...

Fly through the meadow

And touch the sky

When you get where you're going

Remember this day

The day the earth came out to play."-

author unknown

Soon it will be warm enough to have tea parties outside and enjoy the wonders of the season...

I wish evey kitty a wonderful weekend...lots of peaceful moments in comfort and love...

HAPPY DAY AT THE COZY COTTAGE!

In honor of ASPCA DAY, my blog is Orange today. I would like you to meet my new friend ALICE! She traveled ALL THE WAY across the country to be with me! My dear kind friends Samantha and Mr. Tigger thought I needed a Squillion of my very own. They also included that pretty handstamped card...mommy is very impressed with it...and she knows a good handstamped cat card when she sees it! Doesn't ALICE look happy next to the mousie that came from P B & J?

I set a nice place for ALICE by my favorite African Violets in the window where I sleep. Have you noticed how much we look alike? I think ALICE has a very nice Florida tan!So now that I have a nice new friend to watch over me, I can go for a good nap. Just as soon as I punch my burrito into shape!

Ariel, created a wonderful award and my beautiful sister Marilyn passed it to me! Here's what Ariel said about it: "I was talking to mom recently about creating an award. Everyone knows someone who goes beyond. A person who always helps others, always has a kind word, a person with a heart of gold. So I told mom I wanted to make an award we could give to those we think deserve it." I would like to pass this pretty heart on to these kitties who always go way beyond: Junior, Dr. Tweety (and Auntie Stinkie:), The Sherwood Cat Clan and my friends Zippy, Sadie & Speedykattoniccats

So many kitties qualify for this sweet heart award and my hope is that you pass it on and it makes it's way onto every kitties blog !!

THE MOUSEHOLE CAT PART III

Our beloved mancat CAESAR would also make a very brave MOUSEHOLE CAT. He is ADAN's very good friend and now watches over us all from heaven above. Sometimes when we look up, we can see him in the sky...
I hope you all have enjoyed the tale of Mowzer. One little tiny kitty can make a world of difference in the lives of others. Just remember this when you are blue...pick yourself up and solider on...

This is the portrait of ADAN and I at my very first tea party last summer. Michico painted it special for us. I had just shown off my pretty jade ear rings to Anastasia because she took off her sunglasses and I fell in love with her jade eyes. Isn't it wonderful to remember our dear friends in our hearts with fine stories...
