Global Food Crisis Day

Today Mietzi, Meowmy and I are purring and praying for all the skin children who do not have enough to eat. Today is Global Food Crisis Day. 300 Million children go to bed hungry every night. Can you believe that? Prices for many food items, like rice, wheat, beans have doubled during the last year, making food a luxury item for many in the developing countries.

YES, you can make a difference. Just google "global food crisis day" if you want to do something.

Purring for hungry skin children,

Raise A Roof

I ordered some catnip fish from Harmony's Mom Eleanor. Harmony is my purrty Siamese furriend. They have a group called "The crazy Cat Ladies" and they are raising money for the blind cats in North Carolina. The cats need a new shelter building. I bet you have heard of them. There are a lot of Catsters supporting them. 100% of all funds raised go to the Blind Cat Rescue & Sanctuary.
Please check out their webpage at http://www.angelfire.com/members/raisetheroof/

You need to copy and paste that link into your browser. They have all kinds of things, not just catnip toys.
I can't wait for my catnip fish to get here. Maybe I'll share them with Mietzi - if she is nice to me.

Purring for the blind kitties,
Timo

Daylight Savings Time

Something the humans call Daylight Savings Time started today. That means all humans had to get up an hour earlier. So we got breakfast an hour early and lunch an hour early and supper an hour early. I LIKE this daylight savings thing. My human? Not so much. She doesn't like to get up early. Humans are funny.

Collar

I have a new collar. Meowmy went to that Smart Petstore and bought me one. It's black with gray paw prints. I didn't want nothing too flashy. We didn't used to wear collars because we hardly ever go out.
But we do go out a little - under supervision - and now with spring almost here, Meowmy thought we needed a collar.

Meowmy had bought a collar for me once, when I furrst came to live here but she was in a hurry to get one and just grabbed one and it turned out that it was a dog collar. It fit me fine, but it itched terribly and thankfully Meowmy took it off me. I think it itched so much because it was a dog collar - MOL. This one here is nice. Not itchy at all. Mietzi is getting one next time Meowmy goes shopping. She said she saw a green one, that would be just right fur St. Patty's Day.

Have a fun weekend everyfur.

Da Bird

I have a new favorite toy. Meowmy brought home Da Bird for us and it's furrtastic! She didn't even have it all the way put together and I was playing with it already. It is so much fun! I'm running and jumping and chasing Da Bird. Meowmy says exercise is good for me, will help me shed some more pounds. Oh - if any of you furriends have a scale that works really well for you, pawmail me pawlease, Meowmy is looking for one for us.
I will be one tired kitty tonight.
Yawn,
Timo

My Bonbons are gone!

Dear furriends. I felt I kneaded to start this diary because something terrible has happened. My Bonbons are gone! Yesterday they were in the coat closet but today, when Meowmy put her coat on, I looked and they were gone. I have noticed that I have been getting less and less of my Bonbons and more wet food. And lately I don’t get them at all anymore. But they were still in the house. I could smell them. That was comfurrting.

Yesterday I was asking the kitties in the forum what would be a good food furr me to eat and, to my horror, they all said Bonbons are not good furr me. But I love my Bonbons.

Oww – what am I to do? I looked all over. Where did they go? Who took my Bonbons? Can you help me? Have you seen them? I am missing a ¼ full bag of Hill’s w/d. If you find them can you pawmail me pawlease – urgently.
I admit it: My name is Timo and I am a Bonbonholic.

Purr to you later,
Timo
