Thumbellina's Thoughts

Four Thumbs Down!

The one up is for Mommy and Daddy. I still love them. The four down are because there is a little kitty here! A new kitty! It's very small but I don't know that I want another kitty here. Mommy says he's a "foster" whatever that means.

Elora's seen him close up. I'm really just heard him. He sounds like a baby. I don't think I want any baby's around. Mommy said I was her baby....

I'm not sure about this at all!

5 Thumbs Up!

Mommy moved my birthday. Why? Because she had before put my birthday on the same day as hers. But then she and Daddy would work for the day and then go out for the evening and so it would be just leaving me with the other kitties who don't really celebrate birthdays the way Mommy and Daddy do.

But this year, she moved mine to the day before hers. So yesterday, I turned 4. Mommy did have to work, but Daddy was home most of the day. And they were both home in the evening. When Mommy came home, she petted me and petted me. She gave me lots of attention until she fell asleep on the floor beside me.

When Daddy came back in the house, he brought me a present! It was a birdie toy that makes birdie noises! It's a lot of fun. (Even Poodie played with it. Everybody did!)

And then for our last meal of the day we got a great treat. (Mommy always likes to make it special on birthdays and holidays). We got moist food but not just one kind. Mommy and Daddy buy lots of different flavors and then give us each a bit of all of them. I tasted tuna and salmon and turkey with gravy and cheese and other stuff. 4 different kinds of food. It was wonderful! I like birthdays and holidays!

And Mommy and Daddy are leaving the door open again to their bedroom. So Lina and I can go in there. That's really nice. I'll try and be good and not pee on anything. Unless one thumb or two comes down.

4 Thumbs Up, 1 Down

And I'm not telling why the one down. Mommy and Daddy will just have to figure it out.

So why the 4 up? We're getting a kid! That's worth a couple thumbs up. The other ones are for my birthday! Mommy moved it to the day before hers because when we shared, I got lonely. She and daddy go out for dinner and leave us kitties behind. Is that anyway to celebrate a kitty's birthday? I'm glad she figured that out. So now, I get April 6th. I wonder what kind of toy I'm going to get? Oh, or what kinds of special foods? I love special foods. They are soft and yummy and Mommy and Daddy usually give us all different flavors. A spoon of each on every plate. So you get 4 different flavors in one meal. Cool.

Anyway, about the kid: The kid is going to come from Rusha which is way far away. Farther than where Lina's name came from. It's a big deal. Mommy even convinced Lina to put it on her diary and Lina doesn't HAVE a diary! She's the queen of mystery, remember?

Anyway, it's a lot of money to get a kid from Rusha, so do you think maybe you could help? Mommy really wants this kid, and I kind of remember how that was. I lost my kitty mommy when I was a week old. I don't remember what she looked like because my eyes weren't really open yet, but I remember how she smelled and how she sounded and I missed her when I was taken away. There were other kitties there though and I was glad. My brother was with me and there were 4 big kitties who helped the people take care of us and teach us like mommy kitties do. Mommy says those would be my foster kitties. But she said it's also like being in an orphanage because I was waiting for a forever family. My brother was too and some other family probably took him and adopted him. Mommy couldn't have too many but she fell in love with me and all my toes and furriness. So she brought me home and became my forever Mommy. That's what she's going to do for this little girl in Rusha.

We got a Daddy a little while later, but this little kid is going to get a Mommy and a Daddy at the same time. And just like I did, she's going to have 4 big kitties to help take care of her and teach her all the kitty stuff she'll need to know. Well, she'll have 3 for awhile because I just know Lina will hide from her for about 6 months or so.

Anyway, you can help this little girl to have a forever family with 4 big kitties (eventually) by going to Mommy and Daddy's adoption page (http://robandgabrielleadopt.no-ip.org). You can look around and see all about it, including ways to help.

Thanks!
