Hello

Hello everyone... my name is B.G. (short for baby girl). I am the new resident in Alabama living with Mia & Ghost. They don't like it very much but I'm staying! We are kept separate as much as possible. Anyway, I'm about 2 years old and am a Jack Russell woofie. I like to ride in monsters with wheels, belly rubs & chasing tennis balls ~ B.G.

Formerly Feral Friday

A long time ago, Mom saw this little dirty white cat running across the yard into the pasture. She at first thought it might be Blanket (the one who came before me as he just had disappeared several weeks earlier). But no it was a small hungry dirty little white kitty who didn't trust humans at all. So Mom started feeding me & watching from inside to make sure I ate then she started staying outside with me while I ate. Finally after while I finally got close enough for Mom to touch. I finally felt safe enough to take a bath & she saw my beautiful white fur. Now almost 12 years later I am an inside cat who still will growl & hiss at everyone but I know in my heart that Mom won't let anyone hurt me & though I have had a rough life I'm very grateful to have landed my furrever home. I hope all the feral kitties out there are as lucky as me...

Mia Update

The dread pirate blogger won't let me upload any pictures but Mia wanted to at least give all her friends an update since ya'll have been asking after her.

Hi, ya'll... I survived the visit to the vet. They poked & proded at me then sent me home with 10 days worth of medicine that I just finished (YUCK!). I'm feeling a little better and seem to be eating more. The vet is concerned about my heart & liver so Mom will call him back in less than 2 weeks to tell him how I am doing. I might have to go back. Purrs ~ Mia

Anyone know how to get rid of a woofie? Purrs ~ Ghost

Hi, everyone... I'm the newbie around here. I'm a woofie & I'm staying no matter how mad that makes Mia & Ghost. I haven't told Mom my name yet but I answer when she calls me Baby Girl. The vet said that I am around 2 years old & am a Jack Russell woofie. Woof ~ B.G. (Baby Girl)

Updates from Ghost

Hi, everyone... Ghost here... I'm giving updates on things down here in Alabama so here goes. Mia has appointment with V-E-T tomorrow to have blood work done to see why she is losing weight. The intruder looks to have taken up permanent residence on the car port. We may let her introduce herself later but right now she is tired because she has just gotten back from the V-E-T herself. Bathrooms are finally pretty much complete so no more noise from that for now. I'm doing fine and Mom is pretty busy with work so there is your update from down here. Hope everyone is well and now I need to take a nap!

Goodbye Ullrick

Our tribute to Ullrick - you were gone much too soon our friend. Please go here to read more about Ullrick

ONLY THE BEST

A heart of gold stopped beating,
two shining eyes at rest,
God broke our hearts to prove,
He only takes the best.

God knows you had to leave us,
but you did not go alone,
for part of us went with you,
the day He took you home.

To some you are forgotten,
to others just part of the past,
but to us who loved and lost you,
the memory will always last.

Our Furriend Luna is Home

We would like everyone to know LUNA IS HOME!!!! Purrs & headbutts for Luna & her family - we are so glad you found each other again! We think we should throw her a welcome home party when she gets settled back in.

In other news, the woofie is still outside. It is beginning to look like she is staying. Will post more on her later....

This is the intruder at our house. It is still here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Back Home but still noisy

Ghost : Pssst... Mia - you still under the couch?

Mia : Yes, I'm still here. Don't you hear all the banging? I hate construction

Ghost : Have you seen the thing that is outside?

Mia : Yeah, Mom showed me through the door - you seen it too?

Ghost : Yeah, I was going outside to look around and ran right into it. Turned around & came back in. Haven't been out since. Do you think Mom will keep it?

Mia : I don't know - hope not... oh, they stopped banging for now. I need to take nap. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

Ghost : Zzzzzzzzzzzzz

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
