A PURRRRRFECT NIGHT!!!

I put my best friend Cole into a cozy bed, made sure he was all tucked in safe and sound... Kissed him good night on his forehead....

Then settled into his warm loving arms...

for a purrrrfect end to a purrrrfect day.

This is amazing behaviour for me because I flat out do not leave my litter box for just anyone. I love Cole so much...he has magic over me and I am under his spell. Maybe it is a sort of good VOODOO...

VOODOO CAT ART SUNDAY with COLE!!!

Well that's all from the spooky cozy cottage for today. Please come back Sunday because we have something real fun and funny to show you! All we can say is that it has something to do with VOODOO (but do not be scairty)!

BACK IN THE FLOWER BED...OR SHOULD I SAY, STILL IN THE FLOWER BED!

Remember last Friday when I showed you my flowers I was sleeping under...
well, here I am again or still...doing my praying mantis imitation pose...trying to get comfy with a stick in the way and a dumb bunny staring in my face...
Mommy felt sorry for me sleeping in the dirt and leaves. So she made Lapdaddy cut out a chunk of carpet pad to lay under me so I would not get so dirty. Heck, I sleep in my litter box so who cares about a little dirt!?

If you bigafy the pictures, you will see what I did to the pad. Yep, I shredded it with my furniture shredders and got the little puffs all over me. Hee hee, they stuck like Velcro and mommy was ticked! Ahh the good life and living it my way at the cozy cottage!

I REMEMBER OCTOBER OF 2007~LIVESTRONG!!!

Today I remember when this card arrived for my precious Miss Peach...
She was deathly ill and laying by the fire...
I thought her days were few and I prayed the words of the card to come true!
AND THEN THEY DID!!!
LIVESTRONG AND NEVER GIVE UP HOPE!!!
~here is the complete poem, if you click on the photo abouve, it will take you back to October 2007 and my story~
~On a night of snow~

Cat, if you go outdoors you must walk in the snow
You will come home with little white shoes on your feet
Little white slippers of snow that have heels of sleet
Stay by the fire my Cat. Lie still, do not go.
See how the flames are leaping and hissing low
I will bring you a saucer of milk like a marguerite
So white and so smooth, so spherical and so sweet
Stay with me, Cat. Outdoors the wild winds blow.

Outdoors the wild winds blow, mistress, and dark is the night
Strange voices cry in the trees intoning strange love;
And more than cats move, lit by our eyes' green light,
On silent feet where the meadow grasses hang hoar,
Mistress, there are portents abroad of magic and might,
And things that are yet to be done. Open the door.

CAT ART SUNDAY~LIVESTRONG

All day yesterday as we were out and about, we watched people. How could they all have known to wear yellow?? We saw so many who had on yellow clothing...almost as if they knew how we were celebrating LIVESTRONG. It was a wonderful reflective day...we will never forget how it made us feel at the cozy cottage...thank you all for being a part of our lives!

WE LIVESTRONG AT THE COZY COTTAGE!

Thank you Milo and Alfie, Zoolatry, Chandra and all those who helped put this event together!

This is my before mommy. Her name was Kitty. She is wearing her favorite yellow swaeter. She died of cancer after four short months. During those months she LIVED STRONG! One beautiful evening watching the sun set over the desert she said these unforgettable words to us, "I never knew how beautiful life could be."
I am a cancer survivor. I had a huge tumor on my belly. Two Easters ago it was removed. I am a very happy cat at almost 18 years old. I live each day to the fullest and know I am valuable to those I share my heart with. My tumors are slowly growing back again...I did not want to tell you that but I feel I need to set a good example for LIVESTRONG. We can endure with courage and dignity...keep the faith and have hope that we might inspire someone along their rocky road. Thank you for being my friends and helping along on my road. I know one day I can sit in my mommy Kitty's lap and meow to her, " I knew how beautiful life was and now I am here with you forever." Till that fateful day comes...it is business as usual at the cozy cottage. Days filled with love and beauty and a few tack weeds here and there.

FLOWERY FELINE FRIDAY

The is mommies favorite autumn flower...the Michaelmas Daisy. It comes in so many pretty colors and we wish we had more of them. They tend to get leggy and are prone to powdery mildew so they need haircuts during the summer months to keep them compact. Heck but we are too lazy to do that, besides it is too hot in the summer here to do much gardening.
So you will have to biggy the picture to find me sleeping under the daisy bush.

I am resting my head on the sweet little bunny, he didn't mind.

And also keeping an eye out for furry guests coming into the garden

I am safe inside the screened in patio...but I did get a tack weed on my butt last night and mommy needed a tweezer to get it off. Never a dull moment at the cozy cottage...see you all tomorrow for LIVESTRONG blog event...
