What happens when you sleep



I took one short (OK long) nap on Saturday and look what happened!


You are seeing right! My minions! My minions are gone! Mommy said they won't be back for 11 months. Sigh. I'll miss them. Who will listen to my speeches? Where will Bendrix seek sanctuary? What will entertain me in that empty corner now?



Oh, well, OK, this will work.

Bendrix Thinking

Bendrix thought that if he could lay by the church while the village is still up, mommy will forgive him for the big snagged hole in the area rug.....


He was right....


I just want to know how he got through that little gate....

Wednesday - Recovering

This is what time the last guest left our party on New Year's Eve.


Yup, they partied like Rock Stars.



So did Bendrix who was let out of the safe room after all the sticky little people and most of the beans left.

It is snowy and cold today. My beans had to go back to work (ha ha ha) but Bendrix and I will spend the day curled up on the couch sleeping it off still. We had a great time at all the parties. Thanks to Dr. Tweety and everyone who dropped in to Chatzy for such great parties!

Luckily mommy works from home tomorrow and Friday so she'll get to sleep in a little....if Bendrix and I aren't hungry....

Ringing in the New Year with a Gold Star!


What better way to ring in 2008 thank with a Gold Star award? Our friend and mentor HRH Yao-lin presented Bendrix with the Extraordinary Gold Star Award.

The Extraordinary Gold Star Award was created by - Storm, The Furry Fighter - and is for Bloggers who have achieved or done something special. The award celebrates beyond what is ordinary or usual.

1) Post the explanation and rules of the award and link back to the blogger who presented you with the award and repeat the reason why you received it.

2) Pass the Award on to two other Bloggers who you fink deserve it and explain why!


So, I present the award to Max. He has made us laugh, taught us many things about how to suffer thru (siblings, the removal of stinky from his diet and moving) with class and more than that, has even got his mommy so trained, she has put together TWO books for us kittes! That takes, well, what we had before our snip snips.
You're certainly Extraordinary Max!! Thanks for helping found this great cat blogger community!

I also present this award to all the furries on the Black Furrball, especially Captain Jack & Dante. Many of you may not know this, but their mommy and my mommy have been pen pals for over 7 years now. They met thru a now defunt magazine called Victorian Decorating and Life (mommy still has all her old copies!) and have been friends ever since. She has followed all the adventures of the furries and their beans for ages and even tho many states separate them, considered their mommy one of her bestest friends.


Since I have an evil alter ego, I can break the rules whenever I want to (um, I mean Bendrix can) so I also want to present this award to my sweet lady cat Brandi. She and her mommy have had a rough couple of years and luckily, are now happy in a safe new home with a great new jobbie. Even tho she and her mommy were hurting and worried, they still sent healing purrs to those who needed it, and mourned our friends who went to the Bridge. They certainly are classy ladies.

I hope to see you all at Dr Tweety's tonight for the big New Year's Eve party. It'll be rockin' if Bendrix has anything to say about it!!

Spending Saturday with the Greatest Gift Ever

My friends, I always thought the greatest gift my beans could give me was a warm loving home, chin scritches and good foods. I was wrong. The greatest gift my beans could give me is this:


Yes friends, the Cat Sitter Video. I have now been watching this video for 48 minutes and I ordered mommy to tell you all about it as I can NOT seem to tear myself away!



Filled with birdies, squirrels, fishies, squirrels, birdies mmmmmmmm fishies with chirping noises and bright colors...it is amazing. Like catnip on TV!! Two whole hours. Then after the video is over (she got VHS cause when DVDs are over our TV just has a black screen) I can get back to my regular TV viewing. You know, Little House on Hallmark channel is shown 4 times a day! This video is so much better than that!


Mommy waited to put it on until today so she could have the video camera at the ready "just in case" I liked it (she got it at PetSmart on sale for ONE CENT!!). They didn't think I would. I sure proved them wrong!!


Oh, here is a doofy picture of us in our Santa gear on Christmas morning. Sorry, gotta go finish the video! The butterflies are on!

This gift is so great, I feel bad about the hairball I left on the carpet Christmas morning....

Friends on Friday

I'm so glad I have such wonderful friends from all over the world! I got so many great cards and holiday wishes on my bloggy my tail is all happy twitchy.

Mommy and daddy have both been sick for a week now (yes, even over Christmas Day!) but we do have some good pictures as soon as mommy uploads them. Mommy went back to work yesterday and today, but daddy, luckily, is still on vacation so he is resting up. Both are feeling lots better now. I'm going to make sure daddy takes a long nap today with me.

Thank you all my friends for visiting even when my typist is slacking off updating my bloggy! I hope you all had wonderful holidays (Hanukkah, Christmas, Boxing Day and any others I missed)!!!

Mancat Trees on Monday

Hi all! I hope you're all having a happy holiday season!! I am. I've gotten wonderful cards from friends world wide, fun trees to play on...I mean, look at, a buncha pressies on the way, and a wonderful loving family.
I'd like to show you mommy's trees first (sigh, she does my typing) and then I'll show you me and daddy's tree!!

Mommy likes to buy ornaments when they are on vacation and to mark other "special occasions." I say it like that because this year's special ornament is this:


Yes, a racoon. This marks the "Summer of George" where we had 2 mommy racoons and a total of 9 babies between them. Why the "Summer of George?" Cause the mommy with 6 babies was "Georgia" and her 6 babies (like George Foreman's kids) were all George. The other mommy was Jasper (like on Little House) and the babies were the Jazperetts.

These ornaments honor mommy's woofies, Comet & Sebastian who are waiting over the Bridge. Comet always wore a black collar, Sebastian a blue, so mommy tied the ribbons accordingly and, of course, hung them close together.


Now for the Manly tree in our Manly basement.

Mancat trees have ornaments like footballs and showing favorite teams.



Baseballs and golf balls also make the tree more Manly.


Wishing all my friends worldwide a Merry Christmas and a New Year filled with love, peace and FOOD!
