Hi everyone! We are joining Comedy Plus’ Awww….Mondays and Mewsic Moves Me (hosted by Curious as a Cathy,Xmas Dolly, JAmerican Spice and Stacy Uncorked.) The mewsic theme for the entire month of December is Christmas music so we will be participating every week.

This song has been stuck in my head since I first heard it at The Great One’s Christmas dance show. Let me know if it gives you an ear worm.

Sia’s Candy Cane Lane-

Thank you to all who sent Christmas cards by email and snail mail. I am displaying them today. I apologize if I missed any.

 

To heck with milk, we are giving Santa what he really needs to stay awake all night long.

Hi everyone! Happy Thanksgiving to everyone in the USA. Hi everyone! We are joining Brian’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop. I am thankful to be spending the day with my hubby, mom and kitties. I am also thankful that almost all the veggies we are having are ones my hubby grew. And I am thankful for all of you reading this. I appreciate your friendship.

Here is our poem for Sammy’s Poetry Day based on this cute photo. I let my Sammy write this one being that his poem last week was so well received.

Planting a garden can be fun
make sure it gets lots of sun.
The flowers are good for the bees,
but watch out, this garden is going to sneeze!
Here are the Friendly Fill-Ins for tomorrow. Mom came up with the first two and our co-host, Lorianne of Four-Legged Furballs came up with second two.
1. Black Friday _________________________________.
 
2. A pet peeve of mine at this time of year is ___________________________.
 
3. ‘Tis the season for _________.

4. I never jumped on the _________ bandwagon.
Happy Thanksgiving!!!!

Hi everyone! Happy Halloween! Thank you for all who made guesses in our 3 day contest. And the winner is Lone Star Cats with 13 out of 14 correct. I am most impressed they knew Gremmie was Rambo ( just like in Gremlins 2).

Here are the correct answers:

Ghostbusters

A Street Cat Named Bob

Runaway Bride

Bring it On

Rambo

Toy Story

Nine Lives

Julie and Julia

O Brother Where Arte Though

Maid in Manhattan

Happy Feet or March of the Penguins

Fever Pitch

Black Panther

 

Bee Movie

Many of you thought Prancie might be Harry Potter because of the scarf. I actually made it for Sammy to be Harry Pawter back in 2014.

And we still have our Jack O’ Lantern from 2014 from sweet  Angel Nellie.

Remember Me Thursday

Posted on by
74

HI everyone! Today is a very special day, Remember Me Thursday. Now in the sixth year, it is a day to remember all those pets in shelters. Our friends at Lola The Rescued Cat and Three Chatty Cats are hosting the blog hop.

Three of my current kitties came from shelters, everyone else was given to me or just showed up.

Back in 2010, I went to adopt Sammy not knowing he had a sibling. The minute i saw her, I had to adopt her too. It still bothers me that their 3rd sibling had already been adopted. They had been together for almost 5 years at that point and it breaks my heart to see families separated ( human and fur).

My KaChoo went to the Rainbow Bridge in 2010 and I wanted another mitted tabby so I searched Petfinder and found Little Tiger in 2012. I renamed her KaTwo. I know why she was at the shelter for 2 years, because she has feline hyperesthesia. She can seem a bit scary when she is having a fit, chasing her tail, but most of the time, she is very sweet and loving.

My Angel Snowball also came from the same shelter. I saw her in 2012 and kept checking on her and was finally able to adopt her in 2013. Sadly, she had congestive heart failure and left us last year. She was from a hoarding situation and not into people, but she loved her Phoebe.

We are joining Brian’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop I am thankful for all the kitties I just wrote about and all that I have been blessed with.

Here is my poem for Sammy’s Poetry Day to go with this photo:

In this photo we see an older couple,
perhaps their bodies are no longer supple.
If you ask him what he sees, his eyes will open wide
and he will tell you that is his young bride.
If you ask her about her mate
she’ll tell you from day one she knew it was fate.
Here are the Friendly Fill-Ins for tomorrow. Mom came up with the first two and our co-host, Lorianne of Four-Legged Furballs came up with second two.
1. A  ________________ will ___________________.
 
2. The best time of the day is __________________.
3. _________ is not my strong suit.
4. It’s all fun and games until _________.
And the winner of Prancie’s Prayer is Laila! I am having a Goodread giveaway starting on the 29th, I will post a link soon.

Remembering Madi

Hi everyone! Today is a special day to remember everyone’s BFF, Madi. We are joining the Come Laugh With Us Blog Hop

We remember when Flat Madi came to visit us in 2015. She went with me for my pedicure- can you guess what color nail polish she insisted I get?

And now a joke from Emmy-What is red and moves up and down?A tomato in an elevator 🙂

We are keeping the giveaway ( see Sunday’s post) open until Wednesday at 9 PM ( EST) because I lost several comments yesterday when I had a wordpess 500 error. Apparently something went wrong when I updated my plug-ins, luckily Go Daddy was able to restore my site except for some comments. I apologize to anyone whose comment got lost or couldn’t get to my site. Thank you Jan for letting me know.

Happy Birthday Joanie and Sammy!

We are joining Brian’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop

I am thankful for Joanie and Sammy who are turning 13 today. I wanted cake ( any excuse for cake) , but later today they will get their gifts and treats. We will show those photos tomorrow.

Millie and Penny are thankful they get to be the kitties to use this cool fountain we won from Lola. It is a Petmate Fresh Flow Rain fountain that is battery operated.  It shuts off automatically and turns back on every 15 minutes. Of course, I am not one to read directions so I thought it was broken when it stopped and I couldn’t get it to start again.My hubby solved that mystery.

Here is my poem for Sammy’s Poetry Day to go with this photo:

Before there was tv and internet
this hobby would keep you out of debt.
It will take you anywhere
even face to face with a bear.
Luckily, we still have books
even if some are stored on nooks.
Whenever you want to get away
just open a book and enjoy your day.
Here are the Friendly Fill-Ins for tomorrow. Mom came up with the first two and our co-host, Lorianne of Four-Legged Furballs came up with second two.
 
1. The last time I ____________was ____________________.
 
2. __________________isn’t ___________________.
3. _________ is a blessing in disguise.
4. My favorite word is _________.
