Finally Floofy Friday

Well, as usual we've had a busy week - but thankfully it's Friday and we can get some relaxing done (well until we have to snoopervise putting the basement back together)!

Thursday Thirteen

It's been a while since we've done a T13, so we thought maybe we'd do one today!

But then we got to thinking, what should we "thirteen"? And then we realized that we could make this a Tattle Tail/Thursday 13 (mwahahaha!)

13 Things that we've been doing since Mommy and Daddy have been to lame to clean-up since the last Basement Flood:

1. Racing up and down the rolled-up carpet, it's crazy fun!

2. Pearl's been sleeping on a paint drop cloth that's usually in the tool closet (that was yesterday's picture).

3. Bert likes using the stacks of books to hide from the birds when he's "window shopping".

4. Jake is enjoying clawing the extra carpet pad.

5. George may have aided and abetted Pearl in chewing an electrical cord.

6. We've all been in the pantry (we're never allowed to do that)!

7. There are tons of boxes to hop on to - and into.

8. The bookcases are in still empty and in the middle of the room so we can get up in the rafters more easily!

9. Mommy's dolls are out for us to play with (boy, did Bert get in trouble for that)!

10. All the dvds are piled up, but boy do they fly when you try to jump on them (and they make a big noise that brings Mommy and Daddy running).

11. The blanket basket that Mommy tries to keep away from us has been sitting in the hall - it sure is a cozy spot.

12. Did we mention all the great boxes!!!

13. And Bert loves the step stool sitting next to the kitty tree - all the better to get to the top.

I bet after Mommy reads this list she's going to be so embarrassed that she'll get everything cleaned up right away hee hee hee!

Tortie Tuesday

Wew - we sure have been busy with the whole Birthday thing lately! But, Bert's lucky - no one ever forgets his birthday :-) Sorry that we were gone yesterday, but Mommy decided to take the day off. And she really took it off - she didn't do much of anything (hee hee, I suppose this probably should be a Tattle Tail Tuesday :-)

The good news is that the talented Zoolatry Human did this for me!

I think it's a wonderful way to celebrate Tortie Tuesday (though come to think of it, maybe I should have saved it for Floofy Friday ;-)!

Birthday Bash Weekend

SURPRISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Happy Birthday Bert and Mommy!!!!!!


Did we surprise you? Did all the kitties keep it quiet?! It's Bert's 3rd birthday on Sunday and Mommy's 30-something-ish birthday on Monday :-) But we're all excited to celebrate this weekend with all of our friends, so come on in and enjoy!

Now since this party is for kitties and 'beins (and of course woofies, hammies and any other creature that would like to join us) we figured we'd better have food for everyone!

So to eat there's:
Roast Beef Sandwiches
Turkey
Salmon
Hamburgers
Shrimp
And of course Ham!


To Drink:

Niptinis for all the kitties that are "of age"

A little milk for all the kittens (no underage drinking here!)
And Mommy's favorite for all the 'beins

We hope you all have a great time!!!!!

Tuxie & Tortie Tuesday

What are you looking a Mommy?


It's no big deal, it's not like I'm planning on pouncing on her or anything. Can't a tuxie just hang out with his sisfurr?

No, probably not (mwahahahaha!!!!!).

ManCat Thief!

So this really cool looking package came to the house on Friday - and it was addressed to me, from the sweetest Girlfriend Cat ever, Tazo! But Mommy said she thought it might be fr Valentines, so she made me wait till Saturday. The good news is that it was totally worth the wait, look...



But I didn't even get a chance to enjoy it - look, that big brother of mine went and stole the cool fev-ver toy!



I was sad and tried to play with the cool mices, but then Mommy came to the rescue and yelled at Jake and gave me back my toy! Yay Mommy!!!!! (Though I expect that Jake will try to steal it again really soon.)

Thanks again Tazo!

Flooded - Again!

Pearl: Mommy has a whole new excuse, shesh, that woman will do anything to get out of helping us visit our friends! Now she's "saying" that the yard is flooded again.

Bert: Um, Pearl, the yard really is flooded again. See...


Pearl: Oh, well, then I guess it's an ok excuse.

Bert: Yeah, I think we're gonna be a bit busy for a while! So we want to take a quick minute to say Happy Valentines Day to all our friends and of course our sweeties Dante, Tazo and Queen Snickers!

Thankful Thursday

As usual, we've got lots to be thankful for today.

First of all we're thankful to all of our wonderful friends - we know we've been horrible friends lately. Mommy's been so busy she hasn't had time to help us visit. You all are so nice to visit even though we can't!

And then we got some more awards!

Missing Mommy

Sigh... here's a picture of me on Mommy's lap, I sure do miss her.


I've barely had any lap time since Mommy left, Jake takes all of Daddy's lap time.

At least Daddy's been remembering to feed us, I guess that's good. But gosh I can't wait to see her tonight when she gets back!
