Asta & Budapest

My sister, Asta, moved last month to Budapest to start a new life there . . .

. . . the gang has always been one for all and all for one so we decided that we would venture over there to help with the move from one country to the other . . . if you are interested she would love to see all of you as she is lonely and wanting to see her friends head on over for a visit.

. . . We arrived in Budapest without any hitches through customes. Asta took us to her apartment and showed us the beautiful view that each and every day she is able to see. This is a wonderful view as when we party there we decided that her folks cannot enter the building without one of us seeing them. This will come in handy when we party plan.

All work and no play makes for a very dull day so the girls headed out in Budapest to a local restaurant for delicious food and good gossip! So great to be together again!!

Let It Snow

Guess what? It is snowing outside! This is our first big snow of the season, which is unusual for this part of the country. I knew the snow would come and I am counting my blessings that I am an inside kittie and not outside in all of that cold wet stuff.

I am staying put for the day and stay snuggled down under my nice comforter. I will dream about the wonderful home and great folks that I adopted. Life is fantastic! What a lucky kittie I am. Hope all of you stay safe and warm.

Gee I'm Three

Today is the day that we celebrate my birthday and I am so glad that you stopped by today.

You see when I discovered the folks and decided that I would adopt them we didn't know when my birthday was. The vet told the mom that I was between 6-8 months old so we picked January to be my birth month and the 15th as that is a date that my mom celebrates her birthday in July.

I cannot believe that I am now three years old. This is a photo of me taken by my growth chart (the spindles) and you can see that I easily fit in between the spindles with a little room to spare.

Amazing in three years how one can grow or the house shrink. I am filling out quite nicely though I don't have any room between the spindles. I am happy to say that if I suck it in I can still go through the space when I want to.

This year I wanted to spend my birthday just with my folks. We are going to have a quiet day. I am not sure why the mom is asking that I pose for photos, it's my day isn't it? Well as you can see by the look on my face I am not really wanting to take photos. I just want to get to the presents!

And speaking of presents here they are? The mom knows I have a hard time unwrapping gifts with my paws so she put one of my gifts in a bag for me. I really appreciated her doing that as I was able to dive right inside and take a peek!

Oh my cat!!!! I can hardly believe it!!! My most favorite food!!!! I usually eat the dry kittie food but for the holidays the mom let me have special "stinkie" food. I am hooked on it and everytime anyone is in the kitchen I am at the refrigerator looking as cute as I can and making a bunch of racket so they will be sure to notice me. Sometimes it works but most of the time it doesn't. I have to work on making more noise I guess. Anyway this supply will do just fine and I got a new placemat for my food bowls.

Another photo request in front of my birthday presents!! I guess I will have to go along with things and be done with it. Did you happen to notice my new, beyond soft fuzzy bed? I haven't slept in it yet as I am afraid of it. I don't like changes and it will take me time to get used to my new bed. I remember when I got my hamick I wouldn't go near it but now in the day time you can almost always find me in it. I know once I get acquainted with the bed we will become great friends.

I do have some birthday surprise snacks and drinks for those of you who might be feeling the hungries getting to you. Help yourself and please stay as long as you like.

If you are feeling a little sleepy I have plenty of room in my masterbedroom closet and I put plenty of blankies down so everyone is welcome to join me in getting some zzzzzs.
