Art Works

I know I have been away and not working at the computer but the paws slow me down, I am at the mercy of the mom here. Let's face it, she hasn't been working much for me. But that is OK. I did tell her to take whatever time off she needs but hey . . . wasn't counting on her doing so. Anway I want to catch you up a little and talk about what I did last week . . . we had a vig at our house, a very important grandbean! Boy do I love her visits!!!

Our grandbean is growing up so fast, she is already going to be in the first grade when school starts. I just cannot be around her too much and here are a few reasons: 1. She gives me lots of snuggles and love. 2. She kisses me a lot, love it!! 3. Did I mention treats? Oh, she knows where the mom keeps them and just gets them herself and gives me treats whenever she thinks I might need one. I could go on all day about why I love being with her but I do need to continue with this post . . . Now not to worry when you notice that she is drawing on the window. You see the mom here asked her to make a special picture for the patio window in our bedroom. Did you know they have special markers for this? I didn't. Anyway the markers are special for windows and can be cleaned off without any trouble, not that mom will ever take down Cara's art work off. Cara was free to draw whatever she wanted ..

. . . she worked on her drawing for a very long time, you can see by the photo above that I snoopervised her while she drew, I was using the think method . . .

. . . when she was finished she held me up close so I could see the drawing . . . awww, I love it and so do the folks . . . she made a drawing of our family . . . here let me get you closer so you can see too . .

. . . from left to right she drew the dad of the house, me, herself, and the mom of the house!
Aren't the big grandbeans the bestest of the best!!!!  I cannot believe that she included me! Oh, she loves me she really loves me, I am beyond thrilled!!
What is super nice about the drawing is that the folks can see it when they are out in the backyard.
Thanks sweet Cara!!!!!
My next post will be about meeting Cara's new brother. He is a cutie I will say but I sure don't understand the wee ones. Will post about that in a few days.

Happy Birthday to you

Happy Birthday to you

Happy Birthday dear sweet, wonderful, fantastic daddie

Happy Birthday to youuuuuuuuuuuuuu

In honor of my dad's birthday my present to him is lots of loving and snuggle time. Whenever he wants to love on me I will do so . . .

. . . I didn't realize that the dad wanted to love on me so much. I will give him a little hint, airplane ears and maybe he will get the idea and let me get down for awhile . . .

. . . OK, he didn't pick up on the fact that maybe it might be time to stop with the snuggles so I will allow more to continue . . . phew . . . here we go again . . .

. . . this just isn't going to work out as I had planned . . . mom . . . hey mom . . . excuse me mom but where are you? Could you please come in here and help me out . . . oh well . . . a gift is a gift so I shall snuggle the day long . . . HEY MOM . . . MMMMOOOOOOMMMMMM!

Summer Time

It's the hot hot summer time and not much for the humans to do but to take to the water . . .

Cara, our grandbean, has been spending a couple of days here and everyone seems to head out the back door and into a hole in the ground. I don't get it but they seem to enjoy it. I have been asked and also trained as a life guard to protect those while they are swimming . . . many hours of lessons and testing before I became a certified life guard . . . I take this job seriously and with this job comes great responsibilities.

No don't jump to the wrong idea about my job as a life guard . . . it looks like I am well  . . .I know it looks like I am sleeping but I can explain this away. There are several possibilities here: 1. The sun is too bright and I am squinting my eyes. Even though they looked closed I can see all that is going on. 2. I am doing the think method. This is where I think that all is well and it will be well. 3. I have a relif guard and I am on break. 4. There is another human life guard not in the photo. 5. Ok, I'll give you the truth. Now this is just between you an me right? The sun got to me as it usually does and I am sleeping. Arghhh! I tried to fight it but couldn't. But I would not have given in if I thought they were in danger. I know the folks are good life guards and don't mind taking over for me. zzzzzzzzzzzzzz

ps: No humans were harmed or at risk during this swim.

Dear Sweet Momo

It is with great sadness that I have found out this morning that my adopted sissie, Momo, has left us.

I received an email from SS, Momo's servent, saying "MoMo has crossed the Bridge peacefully and is now under her favourite tree in the back garden. Thank you all for the kind thoughts and messages. They mean a lot to me. The blog will be kept open as I will be visiting all of you still."

The tears are many at our house and our hearts are breaking. Seems like one by one my dear friends are leaving. It is way too sad. 

I do know that some day I will see my dear sister again and we will be free of the limitations that life at times puts on us.

Run free my dear sister. Love you bunches and will miss you each and every day until we meet again. 

SUNday

Mom and dad are coming home today so I am taking my bath and getting ready to give them a big HELLO! Boy I sure missed them. I know I will bother them once they are home for at least three days. I will be needy and talk a lot and they will have to let me sleep on them at night. I say that is the price they pay for leaving me alone. Think they would learn and not leave. Oh well . . . guess they are not fast learners.

Little Bit

With all the excitement of Little Bit arriving there were more smiles today when the mom opened an email from Zoolatry along with the following words:

May the road you walk be a smooth one,

may your troubles be few, if any.

May your days and years that lie ahead

be healthy, wealthy and many.

May you find friends in abundance,

may the sun shine bright above you.

May your world always be a wonderful place,

and the good Lord always love you.

(And thanks to all of you for your kind words and purrs.
You can read about Little Bit's arrival in the post below.)

Little Bit Has Arrived!

He's here!

  Little Bit Has Arrived!!

Graphic by Zoolatry

I am happy and proud to report that Little Bit Has Arrived. Though he has been a part of our family now for many months he officially met everyone Tuesday, June 5th, weighing in at at 7 lbs. and 14 ozs and is 21.75" long. We have called him Little Bit from the get go but for hospital records he will be known as William Barrington Abbott. Mom and baby are doing great!

Little Bit

I am going to have to remember how it is to be around a little one again, but know I can do it. From remembering from when Cara was little they make lots of noise and when they get moving about they really like to chase a kittie around the house. Phew, tires me out thinking about it. But I also am remembering that when they get older and can get into the treat jar of mine . . . well, what can I say . . . lots of treats for me, way more than the mom would ever give me, yeah!

Thanks to everyone with your kind words and purrs. Now that Little Bit is here we can all relax a little and enjoy having him in our loving family.

A special thanks for Zoolatry for getting me ready for Little Bit's arrival. They changed my hammick to blue and have some baby toys waiting for him to play with.

Time Off For The Mom

Our family is soon to meet the newbean, we have been calling him Little Bit. He will arrive on 5 June in the late afternoon. We are all anxious to meet him and are so excited that at long last he will be here! Keep us in your thoughts and purrs that all will be well with baby and his mom.
I am giving my mom as much time off as she wants. It was my idea! Do you believe it??!! Will try and let all of you know once Little Bit is here and might even be able to post a photo or two. I will be able to check quick emails but I am thinking that is all I can do.

Don't forget me while I am away. I will miss all of you all but you will be in my thoughts.

SUNday SunSpot

It's SUNday SUNSpot over at The Tabby Cat Club!

A Debutante Ball & Party

You are probably wondering why I am so dressed up standing by the Cinderella carriage with handsome Tamir. You see . . .

. . . several weeks ago an invitation for all of the bloggers came out announcing this most wonderful event and today is the day. With many preperations, finding the right gown, the purrrfect date, how to get there, what time to leave . . . well today is the big day. Tamir rented the carriage to take us to The Debutante Ball and Coming Out Party at Sweet Purrfections place . . .

. . . here we are, Tamir and myself, posing for a photo on the grandstaircase before we head up to the ballroom where other guests have already arrived. Everyone is invited so it isn't too late to join us. Plan on staying late and catch up with seeing many of your friends all gussied up, boy do we all clean up well I say . . . hope to see you there!

Oh, Happy Birthday Truffle! Wishing you many, many, many, many times many mores of birthdays to come and I so hope we can make this a yearly event.
