Arrival Story: Sofie, Riley, and Pebbles are from Safe Haven Animal Sanctuary, a non-profit rescue organization. Mary was Pebbles' foster mom and started her own non-profit rescue organization, Animal Rescue and Care Network, Inc. On Saturday, August 19th, I went to the pet store where Mary was showing her rescues. I joked to my husband that I would come back home with pet supplies and a kitten! Foster moms become family to us, and we always stop by to see them when we're at the pet store. I noticed "Munchkin" right away and Mary told me (with no pressure) that if I were interested, she'd give her to me. I told her I'd go finish my shopping first. Well, I phoned my husband and next thing you know, I had kitten food in my cart! Even though they waived the adoption fee, I made a donation anyway. They loaned me a carrier and she became kitty number eight!
Bio: Mary was driving along the highway when she spotted a calico cat walking along the road. She took the next exit to backtrack and drove to the run-down industrial area she thought the cat went. The calico took off when she saw her, but then Mary heard a kitten crying. She meowed like a mama cat and coaxed malnourished, filthy, and sickly little Joy out from a shack and got her into the trap. Joy was a beautiful kitten and is gorgeous now. She coos, trills, and purrs alot, especially while she's being brushed!

Mom was telling Dad that I was a good eater. Then he said that I was a fuddy duddy! Now, how does that make me a fuddy duddy?
I thought fuddy duddies were old-fashioned and fussy. I don't think I'm old-fashioned but maybe only fussy about a few things. I have a feeling he was thinking more about appearances--me being the only one around here with long fur, shorter in height, and how I look when I'm walking around with my well-rounded self--like a fuddy duddy!
Oh, so I look like a fuddy duddy! I'm not sure if that's funny or insulting. Oh well.
About the pair of Slipper Genies that Mom has, she said that they don't dust the floor any better than a pair of socks would, but they're comfortable and clean up good in the washing machine. MOL
My picture is in the Catster Newsletter today, and the headline is Avoid an Emergency Vet Visit this Thanksgiving! This means don't eat any cats dressed as turkeys!
Mercy's picture is in Cat's Meow blog under the same topic, so we're both famous today!
Mom was sucking up cat hair with the vacuum hose today, particularly from our cat trees. I often sleep on the base of one of them and leave alot of furry evidence behind!
I also watched Mom clean the water fountain today. I am known for sticking my head under it and having conversations with the water and she claims my fur is the one that clogs the motor up the most.
Mom bought a pair of something called Slipper Genie and I got to see her wear them for the first time today and tried not to laugh. You may have seen them advertised on TV, but if not, they're microfiber cleaning slippers and look like shoe mops!
This is the Warning that came with the slippers:
1. Do not slide or run.
2. Slipper Genie cleaning slippers are not a toy.
3. Do not use if your balance is not stable.
4. Do not use on wet floors. Slipper Genies are to wipe or dust, they are not for washing floors!
5. For use on Wood, Linoleum, or Tile only.
I obviously don't need a pair, but if I see Mom climbing on furniture wearing them I'll enter her in the World's Coolest contest!
