It's my Birthday!

Please come join us for a BIG party at the house! Mum's even taken the day off work to make sure that I get extra treats and stinky goodness! 7 is a big year!

OMC!

It's almost my birthday!

Help us purr!

We are purring hard for our buddy Jasper! He's been very poorly and we are worried about him!

Our new banner!

The very lovely Ann, Maggy and Zoey at Zoolatry have given us a very nice Christmas present! Check out our new banner for the holidays! We are super impressed and think that it gives our blog lots of class.

Thanks Zoolatry!

Our toys!

Mum found eight of our toys! They had gotten under the stove. Now she knows where to look when Pandora can't find her special brown mousie. Remember this post? She LOVES her brown mousie a lot!

Happy Birthday, Pandora & Zowie!

Pandora and Zowie are 13 years old today!
Mom adopted them when they were kittens and they were just barely six weeks old. You might have seen this photo of them before:


Well, that was taken only a few days after mom adopted them. They were sure tiny! (and they still are pretty small, as Pandora is only barely 7lbs!)

So, to celebrate this big occasion, we are having a party, with...

Lots of food!


And catnip!


And mom promises treats and toys and fun! :)
We also have an excellent Cat TV, with lots of squirrels and magpies to check out...

And if you're needing a snooze after all those nip-tinis, we have several excellent snoozing spots!

OMC!

It's almost time for Pandora & Zowie's birthday! They are turning 13!
Mum says she hasn't forgotten, but she's just been a bit busy.

We hope you'll join us for a party on Nov 6th!

Oh the indignity!

But this at least shows exactly how relaxed I am in my home! I was snoozing till mum woke me up with the flashy box. Then I came over and gave her a cuddle because obviously she was missing my mancatly snuggliness if she was waking me up with that camera.

Happy Thanksgiving!

To all our Canadian friends, Happy Thanksgiving!
I am very thankful for a lot of things, most importantly a loving mum and sisters, and lots of good food and a good home. There are lots of kitties out there that don't have that.

For Thanksgiving we hope you can send a few dollars to your local shelter. We support the MEOW Foundation here, as that's where I stayed before I found my mum.

I'm featured on Romeo's blog!

This past Friday I was featured as the Rescue Cat of the Week on Romeo the Cat's Blog!

I'm glad to be able to share my rescue story, and me, mum and my sisters really admire all the work that Romeo, Pugsley and his staff do to help rescue agencies and kitties.

Soooo hot.

It is super hot out, but that doesn't mean that we're going to not snuggle with mum. ;)

We are very naughty.

We have been away SO long. Oops. Mum has not been taking as many photos of us this summer either. We've been doing a lot of hanging out, lots of watching squirrels and magpies out our front window, and of course snacking away on tasty foods!

We've been busy!

Mum was away in NYC for a conference so we haven't really been able to blog. She blogged about it on her other site, here. We're glad to have her back, though we had a very nice cat-sitter while she was away.

Pandora shows off her toes.

Hm. Was that a fly on the wall?

The silly photo.

I wish mum wouldn't take such silly photos. (I was interrupted mid-grooming.)

Snoozing Saturday

Even though Zowie and I aren't touching, we like to snooze close by each other.

Look!

Pandora will deny it, but here is proof that we can actually sit next to each other without her giving me the smacky paw.

Fashion...

Turn to the left...



Fashion.... right!



(Yes, mum's a David Bowie fan.)

Zowie helps mum write.

Mum is writing a novel, and we like to 'help'.

We're Starring Over at Romeo The Cat's Site Today!

Check us out!

Mancat Monday

I look a bit squinty here, but mum was using the flashy part of the box. However, I do like how shiny my furs look!

Wordless Wednesday: Snoozing Day

Pandora loves on mum.

Some days when mum gets home, Pandora needs to give her some lovin'! This includes kisses, and cheek rubs on the side of mum's glasses.

Mancat Monday

You'll have to tilt your head for this one - mum had trouble getting us all in the same picture!

3 on Saturday.

It actually isn't this nice here - it's snowing and cold. But we wanted to pretend that it was sunny!

Brave and Mancatly

I will have to be very brave and mancatly today because I am going to the v-e-t to get my dental work done. Mum says they will have to pull my remaining upper canine. And this means travelling in the PTU, and being in an office that smells of other kittehs and doggehs.

ETA: 10 am - Percy was fussy in the car but very good once we got to the v-e-t's office. I'll hear more when he's finished his dental work.

1:46 pm - Just got a call from the v-e-t, and Percy is doing great! And, even better, he didn't have to lose any teeth! He just got a really good cleaning. Also, they tested his bloodwork and everything is very good.

5:20 pm - Home now from the v-e-t. All the vet techs and even our v-e-t were impressed with Percy's mancatliness! He's tucked himself under the bed as he's a bit weirded out, but I'm sure he'll come out for some food soon. Thanks for all the purrs! :) - Percy's mum

My second Gotcha Day!

Today is my SECOND Gotcha Day!

Tuna and treats for EVERYBODY!

(and also, if you have a few green papers to spare, we'd love donations to be made to the MEOW Foundation, the shelter where I lived.)

Sleepy Sunday

Wellness Canned Cat Food Voluntary Recall

The Letter to Pet Parents from Wellness

Anyone who feeds their cats Wellness canned food should be aware of this voluntary recall. Any lots between 14APR13 and 30SEPT13 are being recalled due to a lack of thiamine. You can call them at 1-877-227-9587 to arrange return and reimbursement.

Pandora is small.

Just to show how tiny my sister Pandora is (she weighed 6.5lbs at her checkup), mum got this photo of her sitting on top of a pile of papers, two small moleskine notebooks, and mum's Kindle 3 (which is inside that beige cover right under Pandora.)

Yes, that's right - Pandora can fit onto a Kindle! :)

We had a visit today from the V-E-T.

This is me chilling out after our visit from the V-E-T. She came to give us our yearly checkup. Good news is, I'm a very mancatly cat, weighing in at 17lbs. And she says I don't need to worry about my weight. Not so good news is that I have to have dental work, and my top canine toof out. It is my last upper canine toof because the other one was pulled when I came to the shelter. I'm a bit sad about it, as then I won't be quite as fierce looking.


Pandora and Zowie did well too, though they might also have to get dental cleanings. The V-E-T recommended Hills t/d dry to use as treats to help all our teef get cleaner. Mum is hoping that will work so that she won't have to spend a lot of green papers on dental cleanings.

We also all got vaccinations - ouch! But we are healthy. Mum is going to arrange my toof pulling and cleaning with the V-E-T soon. She hopes it won't cost too many green papers.

(For those wondering, our v-e-t is a housecall v-e-t, and she has a website: VetsToGo )

Mancat Monday

Today is for sharing the sunspot.

1 month until my Gotcha Day!

Mum just told me that it is only 1 month until my 2nd Gotcha Day! I can hardly believe that time has gone by so quickly. :)

Sorry we've been away!

Our mum has been pretty busy lately and hasn't had much time to help us blog! But we are still around, and checking out our friends' blogs. We'll try to get back to a regular posting schedule soon.

The bow.

I don't think this bow really worked. But it's purple, and I like purple.

Snoozing!

It's been a little chilly here lately, so I found a good cozy place to snooze - at least until mum brought out the flashy box!
