Mancat Monday:

Today we wanted to introduce you to Dominic. He is lives with a friend of mom's. He is quite handsome with his beautiful green eyes. Domi is an "only child". His dog sister, Star, crossed the Bridge sometime last summer.

Domi is also quite the party animal:

We hope everyone is having a good Monday. Purrs and prayers for everyone who is in the path of Hurricane Sandy to stay safe!!!!

Whiskerhump Wednesday: One-Eyed Fiona

One-Eyed Fiona is showing off her whisker humps today. We wish the picture quality was better. Mom didn't use the flash on the flashy box and the last set of pics she took are a little dark.

Doesn't she have a sweet face? Fiona lures you into thinking she is all sweetness and then she will put the bitey on you!!! She fools mom every time. You would think she would have learned by now.  Mom, not Fiona! MOL!!!!

Whiskerhump Wednesday: Ginger

Sister Ginger Pie is sharing her whiskerhumps with us this morning. We think she has a very sweet face.

Ginger is the shy one out of the natural sibling group of four.  They all turned 9 years old this year.  It's hard to tell in this picture, but our sister has some scar tissue on her left eye. This probably occurred from an infection when she was a kitten. The group was 4 years old when they came to live with us from Ohio.  Ginger is the smallest of her litter, and she still weighs a healthy 14 lbs!  Mom says Ginger also has the softest fur of the litter.  Technically, Ginger isn't a "cow cat" since her spots are tabby (Sister Panda is a true "cow cat").  Also, Ginger and Brother Spunky are bonded together.  It's not unusual to find them snuggled together on mom's bed or in one of the cat beds.

Ginger is finally starting to get up in the recliner with mom.  She hasn't napped in the middle of mom's lap yet, but there is hope. The closest she has come is placing her back end on mom's thigh and draping her front half over the wide arm of the chair. Most of the time she will lay on the foot rest, stretched out along mom's leg.

Ginger HATES being picked up!!! She will cry and meow and struggle until mom puts her down. The entire litter is like that! Of course, Puff is just too large to pick up! But that's another story for another time.

Have a great day and show us those whiskerhumps!!!

Gorgeous Tuesday

We hope everyone is have a lovely Tuesday. It's a beautiful sunny day here and we are planning to nap in the sun puddles on mom's bed, on our uncle's bed, in the laundry basket and on the cat trees, on the living room sofa, on the living room coffee table and anywhere else we please! That's because we are cats and that's what we do

Mom did watch the season premiere of The Walking Dead on Sunday night. We ignored it. Some of us did nap in mom's lap during the show. Mom said she hopes old man Herschel makes it, even if he did keep his zombie-fied family chained up in his barn back on the farm. Whatever...

We wanted to share a picture with you that isn't cat related. One of mom's cousin's has twin granddaughters. They are about 2 1/2 years old. Their dad said they have discovered nail polish:

Would you believe he said they didn't get any of the polish on the carpet?!!!

Have a great day!!!! 

Easy Like Sunday

Serendipity is taking it very easy today! She didn't even raise her head when mom took her picture!

It is sunny, 75F, and very very windy today! We might have storms later tonight. We sure hope not.

We hope everyone is enjoying their Sunday as much as we are. Mom is home with us today. We watched a movie with her this afternoon, and we might watch The Walking Dead tonight. It depends if mom chicken's out! She loves the show, but she is also a big scaredy-cat!!!! And we thought we were the only kitties around this house!!! MOL

We Got An Award!!!!

Whiskerhump Wednesday/Good News

We are going to start with the good news.  We found out yesterday that Oliver has found a forever home. We told you about him last week. It made our hearts happy to get that great news.  Thank you for purrs. We just know the Great Cat heard them and helped Oliver out of his situation.

And now for Whiskerhump Wednesday with Memphis Meezer. You get not one, but TWO pictures of my handsome Siamese/Manx brother.  You also get the bonus view of black toe beans in the first picture and his pink tongue in the second picture!

Have a great day!!!

Tuesday News-day

We are back! Mom ended up being really sick so we didn't much computer time. She had a nasty sinus infection and it knocked her on her butt! She is feeling better and went back to work today.

But now for the important news:  We have had an intruder in our yard! It's true! A lovely, large, long-legged, silver tabby has been visiting our yard. We assume said tabby is a girl since her collar is pink. Of course, boys can wear pink too. There is nothing wrong with that. Anymew, said tabby is of medium length fur and is very beautiful. But there is more!!! The tabby has a companion: A big black short haired kitty!!! This kitty also has a collar and tags, but we couldn't see the color of the collar. We have just started seeing them so they must be new to the neighborhood.  Mom said she wishes their guardians would keep them inside. It is so much safer!

Lastly, mom took some pictures of a few of us on Sunday. We will start sharing them soon.

Have a great day!

Mom is feeling puny....

Our mom is feeling a bit puny today.  She said she feels like there is an alien in her chest. We made her take a Mucinex DM and now she is feeling a little sleepy. Hopefully it is nothing serious. We hate it when she is sick. We get to cuddle with her, but we want her to be well!  Mom said we have "allergy season" twice a year. Each one last 6 months!!!  Seriously, mom usually will get sick in the spring and again in the fall.

We also wanted to thank everyone for their good wishes on finding Oliver a home. We haven't heard anything new, but then again, we might not. We can only keep our claws crossed and hope for the best.

Now it is time to go nap in some sun puddles while we can!!!

PSA: A Home For Oliver

Clarissa here.  Mom and our gang are trying to find home for this handsome orange boy:

Oliver's people moved and left him behind, ALONE, in an empty house.   He is living in a temporary foster home but can't stay there. If a home is not found soon, he will be going to the local Humane Society.

Oliver is about a year old. He is neutered and current on his shots. We don't know if he gets along with other cats or not. His first year has been spent as an only cat as far as we know.  Mom said she would take him in if it is an emergency situation, but she also said we are really at "catpacity" now with 15.

It makes us all very angry, and sad, that this boy was left behind. We don't understand how anyone could do that to any animal.

Oliver says,"Please help me find my forever home!"
