THANK YOU from Schooner, on his Birthday (March 1, 2010)

Dear Friends:

Today is my 17th Birthday. I knew it would be a special day, but I had no idea how special.

When we logged in this morning, we found many, many affectionate messages! For me, on my day!

Turns out, my birthday had been announced on the Cat Blogosphere.

I am going to write back to everyone who wrote me, but meanwhile, I have added all of your websites to the list of "Our Friends," in the right-hand column.

 Some of you know that I only came to live with Pat and Henry and the other Cats, in November, 2008. I'm lucky to be here, because, as I have already explained on my Vivapets webpage, my original owners didn't want me any more. That made me sad.

But now I am much loved, and that makes me very Happy!

Here is the portrait Pat took of me today:

I love you all . . .

Sincerely,

SCHOON


P.S:  Pat wants me to mention that we have found lots of helpful information on Tanya's Feline CRF Information Centre - THANKS, Tanya, for making my life better!

Super Sunday! (February, 2010)

February 21 was "Super Sunday" (whatever that means), and Pat said she wanted to commemorate the date by taking lots and lots of pictures of us. We told her, well, go right ahead, while we "commemorate" by doing what we do every day:

PLAYING:









RUNNING in and out the study window - or, in Cocoa's case, CLIMBING the study window:













PERCHING and PONDERING:

Schooner:


Tootsie:


Hershey:


Boris and Natasha:


Summer:


Cocoa:


Farah:







Taffy:





Because around here . . . EVERY day is Super FUN-Day!

Natasha the Paper Shredder

Natasha loves nothing better than to shred paper - newspaper, toilet paper, or paper towels. Usually there's someone around to stop her before too much damage is done. But one morning, she found herself alone in the kitchen . . .




"Oh-oh, I think I hear someone coming!"


"Maybe I should just hide under here."


"On second thought, maybe it would be better to move a few feet away . . ."


"Why, HELLO there, Summer!"


Hmm. Summer does NOT look pleased about this.


"Honestly, Summer, I'm as baffled as you are as to how this could have happened."


"Well, if you're going to be THAT way about it, I'll just go out this door into the pen . . . see you later . . . "
