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.

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

Purrthdays

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. ...

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.
