The Tail of the Disappearing Catnip Mice

As most of you may already know, mommy likes to feed the cats in the neighborhood. She even likes to pet and cuddle those that aren't shy. Well mommy sometimes shares MY toys with them. Ok so she doesn't give them MY toys really, she gets extra ones and gives those. Well last night mommy gave an orange catnip mouse to Tee the tortie, then Pickles showed up so she gave him one too. Then she spotted a pink mouse on the deck... humm I think he's been out here a month or two now. Toby came by too so she threw a yellow mouse at him; he however had no interest in playing, just eating. So Marshmallow started playing. I watched them play for a while then went for a nap. Later on daddy saw Yo-Yo playing with one of the orange ones, but when he was spotted he ran off with it in his mouth and ran down the stairs. A while after that mommy saw the orange mouse on the deck again, but no cat was around. When it was bed time, the mouse was missing again... So today mommy went out on the deck and looked around, she even went downstairs...no mouse was found. All the catnip mice have disappeared. I wonder if this mystery will be solved.

Napping

I love napping.
It's what we cats do best.
I have a new nap spot: it's on the back of the couch. For the last week or so now I have been sleeping there. Napping is good anywhere you can get comfy. So go get comfy kitties and enjoy another good nap.

Warm & Fuzzy Doubled

As if seeing my picture on Scooter's page today wasn't excitement enough, I then received mail from her. Not just pmail, but real mail. She sent me a lovely thank you card and in it were pictures of her with the birthday card and gifts we sent her!

Thanks Scooter for making my day double warm & fuzzy!

Warm & Fuzzy

Warm & Fuzzy is how I feel today! My sweet lovely Scooter has chosen me as her orange friend of the day! I can't stop purring! I can't beleive my picture is on her page. Oh my I'm feeling the love, I'm purring up a storm, I'm high as a kite (and I'm not on catnip)! Thank you Scooter, you have made this orange furrball feel very special!

Downy soft

I was watching mommy put away some clean laundry this afternoon, (I must investigate all you know) and so I was on the dresser watching her fold and put away shirts and socks, and then she put away her pj's and opened the drawer under me. I took this as an invitation and climbed on her fresh cloths and got comfy. I then decided that since I was on clean cloths I would take a bath. She watched me, and so did Sissy. Then daddy came in and said I was silly and left again. After my bath I took a nap. Sundays are fun when you can be lazy...

Calling Dr.Luke, calling Dr.Luke

Poor mommy was not well yesterday evening. She was huddled up against her white kitty bowl; she must have eaten a bad mouse or something. I jumped up on the back tank and watched her making sure she was ok or if she needed anything. If she left the room I followed, I followed her everywhere she went. She often ended back at her kitty bowl. And when she would curl up in the corner of the room I would hop up on her lap and snuggle her. I did not leave her all night. She truly enjoyed me taking care of her. I even slept by her feet all night. I did crawl up on her chest at one point during the night for a quick snuggle, then back to her feet I went.
Today mommy felt much better. Must have been my healing paw... or morning nuzzling. You see this morning I woke mommy up with my my nose, I just love to stick it in her neck. She loves waking up to that!

Living a catnip filled week

I'm a catnip addict and I just don't care who knows it!

This birthday thing is really great! I have been playing with lots of catnip this past week and I can't seem to get enough of it. I have a wonderful new homemade catnip pillow (purrs to Bonnie) that just makes me all silly! Mommy says she had to take it away from me because I was getting too loopy and hid it from me. She put it high up in a kitchen cupboard... She won't admit it's there but I know it is. I keep crying and reaching for it but it is much too high for this furrball. But I know she will give in this evening and I will get to lick and chew my catnip pillow tonight...

I would also like to thank cute little mischievous Gordy for giving me a star and my first turkey rosette!

And thank you to Catster's reporter Bogdan for sending me a pmail birthday wish. I hear his printing press troubles may soon be over, that is good news for us loyal fans who like reading The Morning Scratch.

I think I'm going to try reaching for my pillow now...

And the Celebration Continues

I went to bed too early! I received a rosette from my furriend Monkey(Blue) later last night and he also wrote about me in his blog. Tee hee, I feelpawpular.

Thank you as well to that cutie in the pink flower dress Samantha for my pumpkin rosette.

And then this morning I received a rosette the dear Simba. We are still purring for her and are very happy to hear she is doing better.

Then the icing on the cake happened this evening: I received a package from Scooter! I feel like the most special orange furrball in the world! Sending out a million whisker kisses to you and your mommy!

Purrs all Around

I am one happy and spoiled orange furrball! I have had a very great day, and I have even greater friends! I must thank the following kitties for helping make my day even more special:

Sweet Scooter for my lovely rosette, pmail and for having me on her page as one of today's scoop strolls. Isn't Scooter just the sweetest!

Comical Calvin for a bright star, a fun birthday song sent in a pmail and for mentioning me in your diary. That's triple the fun!

My buddy Charlie for giving me a precious star and a rosette. That is (and he is) too cool.

Charming Rufus for my rosette. It's a great day for him too, congratulations for being cat of the day!

Silly Sebastian for my rosette and the diary mention. Thanks for noticing we weren't official friends and changing that.

Beaming Boogers for a pumpkin rosette. Oh and mommy says you are so cute mommy could eat you (don't worry she won't actually eat you, this just means lots of cuddle squeezes)

Cutie Kazumi Joy for a rosette, she always sneeks in for a hello to make me smile.

To Jason Hopper for the birthday pmail

And to Pebbles and her family for a rosette, this was a lovely suprise!

Thank you to my BOCU, Monkey Business & Canadian Kitties group members for thinking of me too!

The best thing is that the day is not over so this orange furrball is off to play!

An Orange Celebration

Today is my 2nd birthday! (or at least the day we celebrate my birthday) Mommy chose this day for two reasons: the first is because when I was taken to the vet the first time the Dr. said I was around 10-12 months old, and the second reason is that her first and orange cat growing up was a Christmas kitty so she thought it would be cute if I too had a holiday birthday. So far it has been a great week. I have been cuddled and hugged a million times, all the catnip I want or almost, fun playtime and roaming outside time. I hear something special is in the mail for me, oh I cannot wait!
