Christmas in July??

Hi! We participated in Christmas in July and got paired up with Peanut, a really cute woofie and her kitty sister, Pyper. They sent us all this stuff.

Just checking out the loot. There are temptations and some catnip treats. A couple of soft foamy balls with feet that are fun to bat around and a giant pompom with crinklies inside. Camie got some treats also and a chew bone.

We got a really nice card from them. They live in Canada.

Here we are checking out the catnip treats. They are really yummy.

Here is Camie with her chew bone. She really likes it. She took it and started chewing on it right away.

Thank you very much Peanut and Pyper. We love everything.

Sleepy on Saturday

I can't quite figure out why Mom was laughing at me and then taking my picture. She says its because it looked like I was doing sideways push-ups in my sleep. What is a push-up and why would I want to do one sideways?

Formerly Feral Friday

When I complained about the fact that the Tonks had been featured almost exclusively this week, Mom apologized and said that today was just for me. So here I am.

PS~We should be getting back to normal. School starts here on Wednesday for the 7th graders and Thursday for the 8th graders. Mom says they stagger the start date for the kids at her school so the 7th graders have an orientation day and a day without having to worry about being in Middle School with bigger kids to bully them.

Sharing with a Sibling

Mom let us have some more baby food and we decided to share it. Mom thought we were cute, so she took a video of our sharing, and we thought we would share it with you.

Meezer Rule Wednesday

Tavi: My rule is to always "help" make the bed. And then stop helping periodically to give yourself a bath so that Mom has to move you so she can finish making the bed.
Tiki: My rule is to always be the first to lay down on the freshly made bed.

We also want to apologize for not getting around to visit you for a couple of days. Mom has to work a couple of 12+ hour days to get the students ready for school. She came home last night exhausted and didn't let us visit very many of our friends. We should be back to normal Thursday or Friday.

Tiki Tuesday

Well, last night was a not very good night for me. Apparently my blood sugar dropped really low again, and it made me loose control of some stuff. Namely my bladder( I am so embarrassed). I was sleeping on Mom's bed between her legs, and she felt something cool and wet, and couldn't figure out what it was. She also said she could smell pee, but couldn't figure out why. When she finally figured out what was wrong, there was a huge wet spot on her sheets all the way down to her mattress, and I was all wet on one side. I HAD TO HAVE A BATH! Mom took me to the sink and wiped me down and then put some soap on me and then rinsed it off. I finally started howling about halfway thru the bath. Then Mom thought about why I could have peed the bed. I never miss my litterbox. So, she checked my bloodsugar and it was LOW. So low it didn't register on my meter. The good thing was that I got wrapped up in a towel and then she opened a jar of baby food for me and I got to eat the whole jar. Well, almost the whole jar. Tavi stuck his head in when I was mostly done. I am feeling better, and Mom is keeping a close eye on me to make sure I don't get this low again.

Not The Mama Monday

We have decided to give up our Meezer Monday for a better cause. It is Not the Mama Monday. He does so much for the Cat Blogosphere, and for lost kitties in his town. He just got done finding a home for a cute little kitty, and while taking a walk a few days later, he found another kitty that needs to find a forever home and rescued it. So, for all that you do for kitties Not The Mama, we salute you!

Easy Like Sunday Morning

Once again, I have decided to take over one of Camie's bed. She is on her other one behind me. It really is quite comfortable, and she doesn't mind. She lets us get away with anything.

Friends and Award on Saturday

We got this award from Castle. It is the Gold Card Award, and it is given to bloggers who "are always working to make things better for all cats and doggies". Thank you so much for thinking of us Castle.

We now must give the award to 5 friends. Four of these friends must be dedicated followers of our blog. One should be a new blogger and live in a different part of the world. Each awardee must link back to whomever gave the award.

As Castle said, it is hard to pick just 5 friends.

We are going to pick Victor the Vampire Kitty and his sister Mushka. They are pretty new to blogging and Victor, like Castle, looks almost like Tavi's face twin.

Next, we are going to pick Angus. He always makes us laugh.

Third, we are going to pick Tybalt, Holly, Ivy, Dana and Loki. They have been really good friends to us, and Cody would never forgive us if we didn't include them.

Fourth, we are going to pick The Taylor Catsssss. We have fun going to their blog, and Auntie Deb has done so much for the CB.

Lastly, we are going to pick Cheysuli. She always stops by to say hi to us, even if it has been a couple of days since we have had the chance to stop by and see her.

We really wish we could have picked 10 times 5 more bloggers to give this award to, as we think all of you deserve it.

Formerly Feral Friday

This is the little covered area the Nice Lady Person made for me. She took half of a PTU and put my fuzzy blanket in on the bottom and then hung a towel for me to hide behind when I need to. It is under her bathroom sink (which is actually in the bedroom) so I am close but watchful.

A couple of kitty friends have asked about the extra pigmentation in my eye. It is kind of like a giant freckle on the colored part of my eye and doesn't affect my vision at all. The Nice Lady Person loves my eye. She tells me I am unique and should be proud to look a little different.

Thursday Thirteen

As we said on Tuesday, Mom went back to work after being home with us for a little over a month. She works for a school and is considered an 11-month employee, so she works for 11 months, and doesn't work for one.

Here are Thirteen things that have or haven't happened because she went back to work:

1) Camie got mad and pooped in our room. :(

2) We have been snuggling a LOT with Mom when she comes home. :)

3) We got used to being fed later, and now we are being fed early, so our food clocks are all messed up. We still want to be fed at a later breakfast time, so we are starving when Mom comes home for lunch. :(

4) Because of #3, we get a small snack for lunch. :)

5) Mom hasn't been letting us visit our friends at the times we are used to. :(

6) Mom didn't come home for lunch and her nap yesterday because she was working on mailing papers. :(

7) Camie got mad and pooped in our room again. :(

8) Camie also got into 4 Cup of Soups that Mom obviously didn't have stored high enough and got styrofoam, noodles and dry powdery stuff all over Mom's bed. :(

9) Mom hasn't taken any new pictures of us. :(

10) We won't leave Mom alone when she comes home. :)

11) Mom has been tired, but can't sleep, so she is vegging a lot and reading a lot (which means not as much time visiting with our friends). :( & :) (lap time)

12) Mom told us she won't be home until realllllllllllly late next Tuesday and Wednesday, and she might not be able to make it home for our lunch nap either. :( :( :(

13) We miss Mom a lot, but are sure glad when she gets home. :)

All in all, we are glad that Mom is back to work because it means more treats, but we miss being able to be aloof because she was around all the time.

Meezer Rule Wednesday

When your Mom isn't around to give you loving because she's gone to work...just love the one you're with.

Tabby Tuesday

Mom sometimes hides treats for me in my blanket. Here I am searching for them. It is a fun game to play.

We are sad because Mom went back to work today after being home with us for a month. We like her home with us, except it does mean less treats for us. But we would rather have more mom time.

Meezer Monday

Does this pose make me look all brooding and mysterious?

Easy Like Sunday Morning

This is one of our rugs in the living room. I am trying to blend in so no-one can see me. We are just going to lay low today and rest with Mom.
