Mia in the prizes from Calico Girls

Posted by Mia

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....

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

Purrthdays

We hope all of them had a wonderful day and that everyone enjoys their weekend.

Ghost's Statement

This is to end all speculation about proposal from Friday night. Beau and I have discussed things in private. We do not think a marriage is in our best interest so there will be no wedding. Neither Beau nor I intend to discuss this matter any further.

Gone to Saint Patrick's Day Party at Finnegan & Buddy's place. ...

Meow - Ghost here.. it has been a hard day so I'm resting here on the kitchen table. Mom is hoping that she will have time to help us with our blog more. We are having nice weather so I can look out window and look at birds.

Purrthday and other things

Meow... We are having trouble uploading pictures to our bloggy today. mom has been very busy so we need to give some quick updates while she is giving us a chance. I (Mia) am feeling fine after my V-E-T visit even if they did pull two of my teeth. Ghost is sleeping all the time. Our woofie friend Lucy is on medicine for kidney disease - they don't know yet how that will turn out. Lucy's human brother Ryan is having a purrthday today. He turns 14 so happy purrthday Ryan...

Mia

Meow - Mia here.... I've recovered from my trip to the V-E-T but I have two fewer teeth now (but more than Ghost) but it is okay cause they hurt. I'd also like to give you some more news. My doggie friend Lucy is going to have an ultrasound done tomorrow to see why she can't keep her food down. Please think of her & her family... Also Mom is working on taming an outside kitty - will give more information as Mom tames her.

Purrayers for Crystal's Family

Our blogging friend Crystal passed over the Rainbow Bridge today. Please keep Crystal's Mom, Snoodleroo & their family in your thoughts and/or purrayers. We didn't get to know Crystal long but we really miss her still & hope she is having a good time with all the residents at the Rainbow Bridge.
