Teleporting Away from Noise

We are teleporting to our furriend's house today to get away from all the noise!

Mia & Ghost

Word from Mom :
Mia & Ghost are quite upset because there is work going on at the house and their world has been turned upside down by noise and where they are allowed to go and not go during the day. Hopefully by end of next week the work will be done & their worlds will be back in line so they will stop complaining.

Tribute to Trixie

To Those I Love

by Isla Paschal Richardson

If I should ever leave you,
Whom I love
To go along the silent way. . .
Grieve not.
Nor speak of me with tears.
But laugh and talk of me
As if I were beside you there.

(I'd come. . .I'd come,
Could I but find a way!
But would not tears and
And grief be barriers?)

And when you hear a song
Or see a bird I loved,
Please do not let the thought of me
Be sad. . .for I am loving you
Just as I always have. . .

You were so good to me!
There are so many things
I wanted still to do. . .
So many things I wanted to say
to you. . . Remember that
I did not fear. . . It was
Just leaving you
That was so hard to face.

We cannot see beyond. . .
But this I know:
I loved you so. . .
'twas heaven here with you!

We will all miss you Ms Trixie but know you, Ralph & Norton are having a good time at Rainbow Bridge & continue to watch over your family.

5 Weird Things/Habits

We got tagged by Edsel on this thing that's going around. We have to give 5 wierd things we & Mom do, and pass it along to five more bloggers. You have to notify them they've been tagged and then they carry it on. They have to make sure they tell these instructions on the blog.
Mia:
1. Has to know where Mom and/or Granddad is at all times if they are in house
2. Knows that 9:00pm is when Mom makes Ghost comes in if she has gone outside
3. Tries to sneak out of house but is scared of outside
4. Wants to go to bed every night at 10:30pm - gets mad if she has to wait long after that
5. Has been hiding because of all the noise in the basement

Ghost:
1. Hates being picked up
2. Likes to lay outside on the car port but wants door to the house open just in case she needs to come in
3. Hisses at Mia if they are in same room (they have lived together since 1995)
4. Kind of a loner. Likes to find out of the way places to sleep. Like behind the washing machine
5. Has to endure having nails clipped cause she has had ingrown claw before and can't bite her back claws off

Mom:
1. Looks at computer all day and calls it work
2. Reads books, lots of books, in her spare time.
3. Listens to lots of different kinds of music
4. Talks to the computer (she said that wasn't weird that everyone at work did it but we think it is weird)
5. Shops way too much (we think she has a shoe fetish especially for boots)

If anyone who hasn't played wants to - consider yourself tagged. Thanks Edsel this was fun!

Blogiversary Gift for Kukka-Maria

Please see our above blogiversary gift for the Emperess Kukka-Maria... We hope you enjoy it

Hit & Run Kitty

We read about this on Beau's blog & felt like we had to help spread the word...

For those of you who haven't heard, a guy named Malcolm found a kitten that had been a victim of hit and run. The kitten was still alive so he scooped it up and rushed it to a vet.
The kitten had to have hip surgery. The total vet bill is running him $1300, and that's with the vet writing the majority off. Malcolm needs our help. He did the right thing by taking the kitten to the vet and saving it's life, but he doesn't have that kind of money. He has set up a donation place on his website (through PayPal). The kitten will also need a forever home AND a name as well. To read more about the kitten, vote for a name, and to PLEASE donate if you can to the kitty's medical fund go to http://www.droppedin.com

Also our thoughts & purrayers are with 5-Cat Style & the Flyer as well as Gucci over the loss of Tiffy. Til we meet again sweet princess have fun at Rainbow Bridge with all our friends who have gone before us.

Thinking

We hope to be posting regularly again soon. However, we are trying to decide if we want to continue with this blogging or not. Some of it is proving to be more trouble then fun. So we hope to talk to ya'll some more soon our friends. Mom promised that if we decided against blogging any more then we would be sure to come tell everyone goodbye.

Mia, Ghost & Jen

UPDATE : Since everyone is asking this is what was in box. We got mousies, catnip, balls, TREATS, & cat grass. Mom even got something : wild huckleberry jam & chocolate. Thanks, Patches, Mittens, Mistrie & Toni. Mom isn't sure that she has any good pictures of contents.

MOM - can we open it??? It is our prize from Patches, Mittens & Mistrie.... Wow, this is great stuff... Mom even made me share with Ghost!!! We also had to wait until she came back from the IIUG conference. Thanks Patches, Mittens, Mistrie & Toni - we love all our prizes.....

Ghost Update

Ghost here... I'm feeling fine - my nose is still a little bloody & tender cause I won't let Mom touch it. I think I just ran into something. Sometimes it is hard to see with just the one eye. Anyway... we'd like to wish all the Moms out there a very Happy Mother's Day. Our Mom is a little down because she misses her Mom terribly (it has only been about six months since our Grandmother went to heaven). Purrs to all....

Ghost

Happy Purrthday!!!

We are celebrating our Granddaddy's purrthday today!!! He feeds us and lets us steal from his plate. Happy Purrthday Granddaddy! We love you.

Oh, and everyone who reads last post but doesn't read the comments... I found a SNAKE in the basement. Mom put lots of smelly things down there (they are moth balls ~ Jen) and I haven't been able to find the snake since then. Mom has been out of town but she is going to hopefully help send the prize to the first correct guesser who was Bonnie Underfoot!!! Also we got wonderful package from the Calico Girls with all kind of goodies in it. Thanks very much. We hope to get pictures of where I helped open it up tomorrow. Ghost isn't feeling very well as she has a bloody nose where we think she ran into something that she couldn't see. We will keep everyone updated on her....

One Year!

May 6, 2005 was our first blog entry. One year ago today! A lot has changed since then... we lost our Gramma & several blogging furriends who we miss terrribly. We'd like to thank all our furriends for all of your support for the past year and we hope to spend many more years online together... Mom vetoed our party idea because she is getting ready to leave us to go to conference thingy on Sunday for work. So we thought we'd turn this into a tribute of sorts... what has changed the most in the last year for you? Ours is losing our Gramma...

BTW... Mia here - Mom won't tell anyone about the excitment we had on Tuesday but I will... I had gone downstairs to the basement & finally got the critter out from under the old fridge that is down there. Mom came down and found us (she yelled really loud) then closed me upstairs. Well, when she got back downstairs trying to figure out what to do the critter had disappeared. Mom said that if someone could guess what I was trying to get that she would help us send a prize so give us your best guess. Oh and we still don't know where the critter is so I haven't been allowed back downstairs unescorted. Good luck...

Goodbye Grampa Norton

We would like to pay our respects to

Grampa Norton

who went to the Bridge. Our purrayers and thoughts are with Trixie, Sammy, Miles & their beans... We know Grampa Norton is having fun with all the ones who came before.

Favorite words

Zeus tagged us with the five favorite words (we are sure we aren't original so please if you created them take credit where it is due)....

1) turtle - All four legs and tail are tucked beneath the body so only the head and body are showing, just like a turtle poking his head out of the shell.

2) beans - As in human beings

3) kweak - Little fur covered mouse toys that we like to play with. You know, mice go "Kweak, Kweak"...

4) stinky goodness - our favorite FOOD

5) Poodins - as in cats
