I hope the new friends I have made ... Wally! We all love him a lot, but Sophie loves him the most. :) Thanks for the hat and the C-O-O-L Kimi picture! (It's from Alfie and Teddy too.) Next, our Uncle Oscar and his family sent a party hat too. That's good because I kinda chewed on the other one. Our new friend, Mama Kitty, who just had her 16th birthday, sent me a cupcake. (licks icing off his whiskers) And then I got another hat from our wonderful family friends, Oly, and her sisfurs and brofurs. Wooohooo! Party time! The cutest birthday gift sender has to be Pixie, who sent me a cuppycake. She is too adorable for words. Don't grow up too fast, Pixie. :) Then I got another birthday hat from Edgar, and his sis, Emily Felicity. Thanks guys! Hold on to those party hats...the CAKE has arrived!!! *eyes grow large* OMC! Thank you Queenie, Snowy, Rosie, Toby, Angels and young kits! I never saw such a BIG cake. Just perfect to share with my BIG family! And I also received a nice note, pretty picture and collar from Pooter’s. That's still not quite ALL! Wally, Alfie, Teddy Bearz, Angel Sydney Rose, Wally Angel, and Nikki Forever Loved, sent me a star to mark the day. They also sent me a special feast of FANCY FEAST (cases!) and my most favorite gift of all....Da Bird! But I'm still not finished...See why it took three diary entries, MOL! A beautiful forever diamond (my first) came from our treasured family friends, Mathis der Meowler, Antoine, Dusty, Belle, Figaro, and Entrechat Cat, Kragen, and Clara! And last but not least, my brofur Zack's fiancée, Kiwi, and her wonderful family, including two outstanding Maine Coons, Loki, his littermate sis, Maggie, beautiful gal, Abby, and Angels Muffin and Peanut, sent a forever star with a picture of a tabby that looks like me! :) I am on CLOUD NINE. This was a birthday with memories to last a whole year!!! Thank everycat for everything they did. ~A humble and grateful Griffin~]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/501566 Wed, 3 Sep 2008 21:02:39 PDT Griffin♥ ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/501566 Hiya again!

I am going to ask he ... Entrechat Cat! I am going to ask her if she will be my honorary Catster Aunt. That would be c-o-o-l! Now, this is what she told me do do on this new diary game... ~There are 4 questions needing 4 answers~ Four jobs that I have had: I'm just a little guy, I haven't had to work yet, but here are some things I am good at. 1) I am a good paperweight, especially when dad is trying to read something. 2) I am a good pillow for Queso. He says I'm comfy. 3) I do a good job of waking mom by tickling her with my little whiskers. She thinks it's a bug, hahaha! 4) I have the job of telling mom when it's time to fix our canned food. Must not mess up this one! Since I'm the baby, she can't resist me. Four places I have lived: I can only do two... 1) With my first dad and real cat mom 2) With my current (and last) human family. Four places where I have been: 1) PetSmart, that was w-a-y fun, and I got lots of nice petting. 2) My Vet's office, for the "big boy" surgery. That was N-O-T fun. 3) To see grandma, Dad's mom. 4) Out on the dog kennel with our woofer, Lizzy. Four places I’d rather be: 1) Someplace cool, Texas is too hot. Maybe I'll move to Montreal with my best friend, Teddy! 2) Climbing a tree! I hear the sparrows calling! 3) Sometimes I wish I was still with my cat mom, and my brother, I miss them. 4) Back out on the dog kennel with Lizzy! I really like her. Thanks, Entrechat Cat, for tagging me! Oh, and guess what? I pull and chew on my mom's hair too! Want to be my "Aunt E"? Now, I tag... Pixie~ She's my brother's girlfriends little sister, and boy is she cute! Princess Puddin Pop (P3)~ Oh boy, another real cutie! LBK~ Bet you thought I would pick only girls. Nope! This guy is super nice. Teddy~ Sorry bro, but couldn't leave you out! Just ignore this if you've already done it! HAVE FUN ~ I DID!~ Griffy]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/439091 Wed, 19 Mar 2008 20:32:35 PDT Griffin♥ ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/439091 Hiya Friends, I have been gone from my house, a couple of days. Did you miss me? I was at the v ... Pete. He seems to have forgotten who I am. He hissed and spit at me, like I was a total stranger. What's up with that? Everybody else remembered me. Anyway, I hope he gets over it fast. Did you see the cool picture that my best bud, Teddy, made for me? I love it, but I don't think I'll be doing too much hoppin' for a couple days....:) See ya!

Got something to tell you about straws tonight. First straw story...Mom says I drew ... http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/432285 Sat, 1 Mar 2008 23:32:21 PST Griffin♥ ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/432285 Hiya guys! Today (March 2nd), I am six months old! My friend, Mathis der Meowler, calls it a "Ha ... Mathis der Meowler, calls it a "Half Birthday". I like that! Do I get half a cake??? I heard Mom telling Daddy to let me enjoy the day, because Tuesday something happens. I asked my older brother, Queso, what she was talking about, and he only snickered. What was that about? Then I remembered what just happened to my best friend, Teddy. YIKES! But Teddy seems fine, so I won't worry... much. Also I wanted to tell ya that the big dog and I are buds! Every time I run out into the garage, we touch noses. One day I went outside, onto her kennel area, and she growled at me. I ran and hid under a work bench. Mom thinks Lizzy was trying to tell her that I had gotten too far afield. But just the same, I give Lizzy alpha status outside. Well, I am gettin' sleepy, so I am going to go attack a few feet until I fall asleep. 'nite friends...

Last night, mom came to bed late, or early I guess, it was nearly three am. She had to ... Riley. He is a pretty big guy, kind of like a mushy marshmallow. Momma picked me up....I was stretched out long, and limp. I didn't budge. So she moved me again, with both hands under my long, lean frame. Nothing, not a stir. Her heart began to beat faster, and little prickles ran down her spine. She lifted my limp limbs up against her chest. Thoughts raced through her head, had Riley smothered me? Panic started to set in.... Then I yawned. Whatcha all teary about momma? Oh man, now I got "squished" again, this time by mom. Sleep tight now...(wink) The Griffer]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/421077 Mon, 4 Feb 2008 00:38:22 PST Griffin♥ ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/421077 Hi Ya'll, I saw my picture on Diary Central. It was in the column called "Active". Hey, no one ha ... Lizzy, my tail puffed up like a bottle brush! But now she's cool. She even lets me push her away from her dinner, and doesn't growl at me. Tonight I helped her finish her Mighy Dog. You don't think that will make me bark, do you? I think it would be ironic to bark before I purr... On that thought, I am going to bed. If Dad falls asleep too fast, the "foot game' isn't as much fun. See ya! Griffy]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/419748 Thu, 31 Jan 2008 18:35:23 PST Griffin♥ ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/419748 I just started this diary, and I'm already tagged?! Well, Antoine, turnabout is fair play! My brot ... Antoine, turnabout is fair play! My brother Copy, tagged you so now I have to come up with some facts too. Hmmm? I also got tagged my my new friend, Oliver. He's a playful Tux, and we are buds! Here's how you play the game... Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged, need to post in their Diary the rules & their 7 pawsome facts. Then choose 7 cats to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to purr them a pmail that they have been tagged and to read your Diary or send them a fun Rosette announcing they've been Tagged! My Seven Facts 1. I had a brother who looked almost like me, but his coat was longer and darker.My pawrents almost took us both, but decided on just one because they thought I might make friends quicker if it was just me. 2. My cat-mother was supposedly a purebred Burmese, who went on a blind date with a black cat, and well...you know the rest. 3. I am fascinated by my mom's curly hair. When she holds me, I stare at it because it moves! 4. The assistants at the vet's office, think I'm a cutie. They all want to pet me! My coat is very soft. 5. My sister Emme taught me how to drink from the faucet, now she is teaching me how to splash all the water out of the water bowls. 6. Dinner time is my favorite time of day, morning, noon, or night! 7. Rattle balls are my favorite toy, no, maybe catnip mice, no, I think the feather on a stick...oh wait, I forgot the laser pen, that's it, the laser pen. Now, the seven cats who are going to get tagged...sorry guys, it's how you play the game! 1. My best friend, Teddy. Teddy, I know you'll get hit several times but you're my bestie! Couldn't leave you out! 2. A real cutie, Scout. She has a great story, you should all read it. 3. My Uncle Aldo, because he is a handsome black cat, like my dad-cat was, and he luvs me. 4. My "almost" sister, Abby, who is my brother Zack's girlfriend's, little sister. She is purdy, purdy! 5. A very cool dude, Milo Buddy Bean. Trust me, just go visit him! 6. And my friend, Jules Jr., who Daddy says is such a handsome baby tabby that really knows how to pose for a picture. 7. I can't forget the adorable Laurie, my sister Sophie's niece. Does that make us cousins? Hi Cuz! *Waves paw to each cat named* Thanks everypaw! I hope you have fun doing it too!]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/419357 Wed, 30 Jan 2008 20:13:12 PST Griffin♥ ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/653629/diary/Griffins_quest/419357 Hey Ya'll! I got an A+ from my Vet, at my examination! I didn't even cry when I got my shots. H ... Zack, said it's just like his. *grin* Dad said I look "sophisticated". My brother-in-love, Loki, wrote me too, about my first diary entry. He said he has only purred a few times, and that is just recently. So maybe I will learn to purr. I need to take lessons from my brother, Stinky. Mom says he purrs so loud that plaster falls off the ceiling! You can hear him in the next room. *sniff* Oh! I smell dinner! See ya!

I'm writing for some advice. I'm almost fiv ... I DON'T PURR! Does anycat have any idea what that is all about? I am very friendly, and very sweet, but no matter who is petting me, mom or dad, I just won't purr. I told them not to take it purr-sonally. I do have a good voice, no problem there. I can meow with the best of them! Especially if it has anything to do with F-O-O-D. (Mom has to spell it, or I'll be begging) So if you have any ideas, will you share them? Today I am getting the last of my kitten shots, and my first "big boy" shot...rabies. That means I will get a collar and a tag too! We'll see about THAT. Gonna take a nap now, or maybe bite Queso's tail, or maybe cuddle up with Riley...too many choices. Thanks for reading my first diary entry. ~Stay tuned for more of "Griffin's Quest"~]]>
