Thinking on Thursday

Mommy has asked me to decide which carpet to put in the basement.


I think I like this one the best! And I think it turned out very well!


I think Mommy is secretly pleased that the basement flooded and she got new carpet :-)

I'm also want to apologize for being away all week, but everyone has been so busy around here and now Mommy has left us. So we probably won't be able to visit much for a while!

And please take a moment to stop by Moki's blog and leave him some healing purrs, we're furry worried.


Please fight Moki!!!!!

Wordless Wednesday

Tuxie Tuesday

Harumph...


Mommy stole my sleeping basket! That darn V-E-T told Mommy to wash all our beds (just in case my fuzz issues are an allergy to something) and so she took my basket away to clean all the blankies I had in there. So I had to sleep on this mat on top of my cupboard - not nearly as comfy as my basket!

I tell you kitties, Mommy is really pushing her luck this week!

Mad ManCat Monday

I'm thinking I must have mis-heard Mommy, she couldn't possibly be leaving us again!


It is just a long weekend and Daddy will be staying home with us, but still - we're a bit hissed off!

She says she's going to visit some Mouse in Los Angeles, so she'd better bring us something good like George and the Crew got!

Oh we almost forgot - Gung Hey Fat Choy! Happy Chinese New Year! And Happy Year of the Ox (our Daddy is an Ox - in the Chinese zodiac sense that is ;-)

- Bert

p.s. I have an update - I did have to go to the V-E-T, but he was fairly nice and only gave me one shot of steroids. He thinks it's probably stress too, but the steroids could make me feel better and if it's an allergy then the shot will definitely make me feel better. So, no e-collar or onesie yet, but I'm still under a "grooming" watch.

Double Drat!

Is this a good hissed off look?


I'm testing a few looks out - trying to convey to Mommy just how upset I am with her. She got a peek at my tummy again and now I have to go to the V-E-T! I don't know what the big deal is, so there's a bit more hair missing and some sores where I chewed too much. I'm sure Dr. R will say that everything is ok and that I will not soon be wearing a onesie like Tigmut'hep!

Bird Watching

Alright, it's not that Bert and I don't like each other, there are some things that we love together - like watch the birds!


Mommy thought it was great that we spent an hour sitting, watching and making our little clicky hunting noise. And she also loved that she got to take lots of pictures of us together!

And thank you all for coming to my party yesterday - you guys all made it a great day!

- Pearl

Oh, Is It My Gotcha Day?!

So Mommy had this picture of me all ready for Wordless Wednesday, and then KC reminded her that today was my Gotcha Day (thanks KC!). So you can still see the picture - but once you're done come on over and enjoy my party (it was the least Mommy could do for almost forgetting :-)!



Ok - now let's PAR-TAY!!!!!!!!! Kick back, relax and enjoy!

For everyone to Eat there's:
Turkey
Salmon
Hamburgers
Shrimp

Niptinis for all the kitties that are "of age"
And milk for all the kittens (no underage drinking here!)

Tuxie & Tortie Tuesday

It's a rare picture - two kitties on the bed at once!


It didn't last long - I wanted to wrestle and Pearl just wanted to nap and have a bath. So I guess it was my fault that Mommy only got one picture, hee hee!

- Bert

ManCat Monday

I know this isn't furry fashionable,


but it's been so darn cold here a ManCat should use anything he needs to keep warm!

Fantastic Friends

We FINALLY got Mommy to help us take a picture of all of wonderful Holiday cards from all our Pawesome Kitty Friends!


Thank you all, they were wonderful and getting them made every day special. It was a hard holiday for us, since our Granddaddy passed - so each and every card was a lovely reminder that the holidays are a time to treasure our friends.

The only bad part is that we did not get the most cards this year. We did get more cards than Mommy and Daddy, but Georgie got more from her Dogs With Blogs friends! The final score was 'Beins 20, Kitties 30, Georgie 45 - but we are laying claim to 2 of George's cards since they were our friends too and one of Mommy's cards 'cause it was from Uncle Mo. So we're saying we have 33 cards as our final total!

Also, please take a moment and send some kind thoughts to our friend Meep's family. Meep is leaving for the Bridge today, so they are furry sad, as are we.

Purrs to you all dear friends we are thankful for each and every one of you,
Pearl, Bert and Jake

Thoughts on Thursday

Well, maybe not a thought as much as a concern. Mommy's a bit worried about my rear end. Ever since they got home from their trip to Catifornia she noticed that I'm missing furs on half my tummy and tocks. Now I'm not too worried about it, but Mommy is a bit concerned that it's not growing back, but it's not getting worse.

I'm furry embarrassed about this (Tazo, please avert your eyes) but here's my tummy:

Does any kitty (or kitty Mommy or Daddy) have any advice to get me to quit? Mommy's worrying is starting to make me a bit worried.

Also, it's been super crazy cold here in the Mitten State (in the single digits and in the minuses with wind chill). Would you all mind taking a minute to purr for all the homeless puppies and kitties out there? We're very furry worried for them all.

Thanks,
Bert

Wordless Wednesday

one day I'm gonna get you camera strap...

I'm Snow Tough!

I don't mean to say that Jake is a weenie (ok, yeah I do :-), but he won't go out in the snow! Mommy says Bert and I are thick-blooded Michigan cats, so we don't mind it. And Daddy says that Mommy and Jake are thin-blooded Californians, so they don't like the snow.


Daddy was super impressed that both Bert and I would go through the deep snow. And he loved the way that I walked right in Bert's footsteps so that I wouldn't get my feet too snowy (I say I'm not just a tough a** tortie, I'm a smart one too!).

Maine Coon Monday

Mommy? Daddy? Need I say more?


- Jake

p.s. If any of you other kitties need some propaganda, go here.

Finally Friday

It's been such a busy week - I'm barely able to stay awake to tell Mommy what to type for the bloggie!

- Pearl

Thinking Warm Thoughts

We're already tired of the winter and snow - and it's only January! So we've all been trying to think warm summer-y thoughts. We think this should help a bit...


We hope everykitty that needs a little summer enjoys this!

- Pearl, Bert and Jake

Wordless Wednesday

Tattle Tail Tuesday

Would you look at this mess that Mommy made?


She said she was "cleaning" but I think she's making a bigger mess than she started with. Then she had the nerve to tell me that I wasn't helping very much, so I decided to get right in the middle of everything and really do a good job of snoopervising! And can I just tell you that in all these pictures, there are barely any of me (Mommy says that it's because they're all still in the computer) - that just isn't right!

- Bert

Nappus Interuptus

Go away Mommy, I'm trying to nap here!


- Jake

Happy New Year!
