Cats

Today my mumster got to hang with me again. She and I had a little sleep in again, which was good as it was getting a bit chilly overnight. As you can see our bed is piled high with cosy quilts, which I love. Our old house gets cold, but once mum and I went outside it was really warm, most unMay like. Mum got two pairs of jeans hemmed last night on her sewing machine, and she was pleased that they looked tidy, seemed to be the same length, she has been able to wear them all day and she didn't break the sewing machine. The domestic bliss continued,with more washing, gardening and tidying, and she emptied more of the wardrobes. Today she loaded up three huge bags to take to the charity shop. Where we live there are approximately 8 charity shops within a 5 minute walk. Mum chose to give them to the SPCA one, that way the cats and dogs get some more monies.Instead of going out to lunch, mum supported the local bakeries and got a cheap pie for her lunch. After doing some more jobs, she went to the new French bakery that has opened up around the corner from our house. OMG - mum had the passionfruit meringue tart (a small one) - now mum has a new favorite thing. Mum says it was a 10/10. She'll be cooking lots of vegetables for her dinner after the calorific day, lucky mum did lots of walking today .Hope you all had a great Twosday too.

Eeeeek! It's not what it looks like. I was stretching and yawning, and Mom took a picture. Those little flashy boxes with stop-action can be really nasty for a girl's reputation.MOM!!!I think something is going to have to die a toothy death.

Mom has been blue for a couple of weeks. And then tornadoes started hitting hard around North Texas and then today in Oklahoma. Two elementary schools raised. Children taken too soon. It makes Mom feel guilty for feeling blue.This is Miss Gray. She has lived in our back yard for three years, at least, maybe more.It took two years to get her to trust Mom and then Dad. Mom took very good care of her. Provided her a shelter and fed her twice a day. You can see how far she has come. She always presented her tummy for scritches.She and Kirby had become good friends. He went outside every afternoon to visit with her.And then two weeks ago, just two days after Mom and Dad came home form a trip, she disappeared. Mom checked the shelters for her,but they have not taken any kitties that look like her. Mom just hopes where ever she is, she knows she was loved.

Happy Gotcha Day to me!!!! I love the graphic that the Zoolatry girls made for me a long time ago...before Figaro joined our family. I will imagine the hat on my head has his name on it. I came to my family 5 years ago today. Some of you know the story...I was at Animal Control...I was a stray...and that was not the first time I had been on my own. I have a long and confusing story. The most important part is that on May 21st 2008, mom was looking on Petfinder.com. She saw my picture and my story and she told dad and they hopped in the car right away to come meet me. Doggies at Animal Control are adopted out first come first served. I was lucky mom was fast...they got their shortly after they opened for the day. There I was in this concrete kennel. It was horrible. But I liked mom and dad from the start. I knew I would love them. So...below are photos of me on the day I came home. My squeaky possum is my very first toy. I'm a lucky girl.

Raz and Ellie are good buddies!

*raspberry* Mom why are you watching me? I know you think you're going to catch me.Well... you DID! You found out my ingenious way of getting my nibbles!

Yep, I’m back in the bed now. Although earlier I was out with Ichiro and Mama taking before pictures of the yard. I made sure the plants she has got are all okay. I even tasted some which she was not all that thrilled with but how was I to know what was going on if I did not taste?
