Trixie

Tonight is Trixie's night.

We were very sorry to hear Trixie went to the Rainbow Bridge to be with her brothers Norton and Ralphie on the 28 Aug at the grand age of 18.

There is a blog tribute at 6pm PST at The Big Piney Woods (ie the Calico Girls' blog).

If blogger is playing up (and it is at the moment!) there is an alternate site here for leaving a comment hosted by the House of the (Mostly) Black Cats

Purrs and headbuts to The Meezers Mom and sandpaper kisses to Miles and Sammy.

Happy Gotcha Day to Me!

It's my Gotcha day today. I know Mum told Ms Mia the 16th, but Mum got her dates wrong.......!! Silly Mum - but hey, she feeds us, so who's complaining!

No party this weekend, 'cos my Mum is going away - AGAIN! She says she's going to The Fourteenth Cen-choory - whatever that means! There's probably more on her blog, but we poodins can't read!

So my party is gonna be next weekend - watch this space!

Gotta go sooper-vise the packing now!

You win some, you lose some.....

Some days you get the bear, some days the bear gets you.....and some days the bear just looks at you and walks off.........

Finally!!

Mum has got our Secret Paw out.....so look out Paw in Mericky, something is comin' your way!

I tried to steal the toys, but Mum just kep' putting them back in the box! P'haps she'll get me some of mine own?

And this is me wiff my lay-zur. It's cool and I loves it loads!

Excuse the bad light - Mama is still learning about her new video phone!

And [waves paw at Victor] - dude! Mum got your YouTube invite :-)

charlie

It's here! It's here!

We gots our Secret Paw!! All the way from Mericky!!

It was from Mrs Sniffles - and d'you know? For a bunny (and a beautiful one at that! - cq) she has the most excellent taste in fluffie toys!

We gots a tunn-ell. It's cool, makes crinkly noises and has a dee-vine little fluffy ball in it. Mum says best of all, when we're not playing wiff it she can close it up and put it away!

And I gots fevvers!! I loves fevvers. We gots a toy wiv eiver fevvers on it or it can have a fishy on it - I likes the fevvers best. It's supposed to hang on the dorrhadle, Mum says, but it hasn't got that far yet [munch].

My mum is so pleased wiff her new phone wiff video, she filmed me wiff my Secret Paw! And she has ovver videos she's gonna up-load to ewe-tewbe.

And dear Mrs Sniffles, please thank Bunny Mommy and Bunny Daddy for the most wonderful crinkly New York Times - it was very comfortable for my old bones! Inspired packing [big feline smile]

Tagged!

Boy! We wuz tagged by lotsa fluffies!

Smeagol and Strider, my girlfriend Ariel and Mah Main Dude Victor all tagged us for the five things meme.
We starts by tellin 5 weird things/habits about ourselfs.Then we need to choose 5 others to tag and they need to write a post about their 5 weird things/habits as well as repeat this rule clearly, then tag 5 more victims. Don't furget to leave yur victim a comment that says "your're tagged!" in their comments and tell them to read your blog.
So me and Pandora are sharing this one

I'm bigger, so me first:

1. My favourite toy is called Stick. I haf nearly killed it. It used to haf fevvers and stuff, but now it's just yellow fluff onna stick. I takes it everywhere wiff me.

2. I haf a new toy. It's called Dot. Mum says it's actually a lay-zur. But I loves running and pouncing on it. We play most evenings, Mum says it's good exercise.

3. When I was a little kitty I used to sleep in the litter tray.

4. I is totally ascareded of visitors. When the doorbell rings I hides under my bed.

5. I haf an underbite, which means my front bottom teefs (you know those cute little ones in the front?) go over my top teefs. Makes eating stinky goodness difficult. Good fing I likes biscuit crunchies!

[pushes] and now me [preens]

1. I am 18 years old and Uncle Tim sys I will probably live to at least 20.

2. When I was a kitty I nearly died, since then I have not been ill until my darling friend Ambrose went to the Bridge.

3. If you comb me, I will bite you.

4. If you try and clip my claws, I will bite you.

5. If you try to force a pill down my throat, I will bite you.

Everyone seems to have been tagged - so we'll leave it to you to tag yourselves if you haven't done this game yet!

:charlie: Ms Mia has been to say Happy Purrthday. I've been to check the list and got Mum to check her diaries and my Gotcha Day is not this week, it's next week - 26th August!
Ms Mia, please change my entry (again!) and I will chastise my Mum! Honestly, some beans are SO useless!
There will, of course, be a party at some point!

Calling all Beans!

Guys, Mum has something to ask all your beans. I s'pose poodins could do it, but it is definitely a bean thing.

Mum has a little badge on her blog (top of our blogroll) that looks like this:

I Remember
Khang Nguyen
Pentagon

Although we're British, Mum is one of the bloggers taking part in this mark of respect to the victims and families of 9/11.

Mum says although the response has been huge, Mr DCRoe is short of his intended 2996 bloggers (one for each name, geddit?).

So Mum is sending out a call to the beans - if you haven't signed up yet click on the badge and sign up for this blogging miracle. Bloggers around the world joining together on this one day to remember the fallen and celebrate life.

So come on, poodins - let your beans use your computer on 9/11 and join in the call to blog!

Wouldn't it be excellent if we got the 2996 bloggers??

Dark in here, innit........?

Wow - all the light things went out in the house the other day! Daddy and Mum were going around getting these things out.........

They are called 'can-dells' and Mum says they are really hot! I nearly singed my beautiful tail a couple of times....

I liked having no lights 'cos Mum and I played 'chase the torch beam' - that's a good game!

But when the lights came on there was this nasty screamy beeping noise that drilled through my head.......we didn't like that at all - in fact it made Pandy have a bad turn!

Mum says it was called the 'Ha-larm' and Daddy turned it off real quick.

All in all - powercuts are definitely not my thang!!
