Whose the Floofy Kitty with the Green, Green Eyes?

Echo!!



This is the handsome kitty that mommy and daddy rescued a few weeks ago (the one that was in the fight outside their window at 3am). My grandma and grandpa took him in and after exhausting all means of finding his former owner, decided that they loved him bunches and wanted to keep him furever.

When they took him to the VET, they found he is in good health and is approximately 3-4 years old (the same as me!). He got all of his vaccinations and they weighed him at a mere 11 lbs. That is 2 lbs less than me! No fair! That won't last long I'm sure tee hee hee.

As seen here, he loves his feather toys and grandpa says he loves to chase shoestrings.




He is a talker too. Mommy hears him on the phone whenever she calls over there chatting away. Echo is a very luvy lap kitty who enjoys being petted and carried around and follows grandma and grandpa everywhere. He efen lays outside the bathroom door when grandpa is cleaning up just like their woofie Comet used to!

Here he is with my mommy on Thanksgiving.



I'd be jealous about that, but I'm too happy that Echo has such a great, loving home with my grandma and grandpa. He couldn't ask for better parents. After all, that is who my mommy learned to spoil me from!

Busted on Midnight Monday

Busted! As a sleek House Panther, I thought could stealthily check out my new kingdom without anyone knowing. I was wrong.



Hey, efen the bravest panther knows it's best to hide when Mommy is mad.

The Chaos Continues


Mommy is moving right along with her decorating this weekend. I helped put up both trees (yes, there are 2 big ones!). The picture is blurry, because I was moving really fast from box to tree, box to tree to make sure nothing got missed.

Here is what they look like now!



She also finished her village! There was one "incident" the first night and I'm thinking I won't get back up there again. Mommy said it was her fault because she didn't pick me up and show me what was on the table and we kitties are sooooooo curious. So she forgave me. Also, only a couple of the people were, um, knocked over, and nothing was damaged so, I'm still here!




Actually, I find that under the table is lots more fun than being on the table. It's like, why climb the trees, when I can hang out under them??? I'm hiding too because I don't like all the boxes and mess. As soon as they're gone, mommy will get some good pictures of me explorin'.

Praying for KC and Remembering Friends

Please send lots of healing thoughts and prayers to our sweet KC who is very ill and at the emergency hospital.

Please also send comforting vibes to the family of Tilly from the Tower Hill Mob who crossed the Rainbow Bridge early Thanksgiving morning.

You are all in our hearts.

It's Here!

Hi! On formerly feral Friday, I realize that since I am in my forever home I can haf favorite days of the year. You know, Christmas, Birthday / Gotcha Days etc. Well, today is another one of those days. Because the day after Thanksgiving is the day my mommy takes down her autumn decoarations and puts up her mostest favorite Christmas decoration. Her St. Nicholas Square Village.



She started over 10 years ago when she bought a set for her mom for Christmas. It steadily grew from there as both my grandma and mommy add each year. It now takes up a long buffet table and 2 card tables.




It is one of my favorite days because I get to play with all the boxes and stuffing (no worries, none of it is small enough for me to hurt myself on)!



I've never pulled a godzilla on the Christmas Village as something (that would be mommy) tells me that it would not go over well. Now that I've ruled the Halloween village many times, she is worried I may try to rule this one.

Will I or won't I????????????????? Stay tuned!

Formerly Feral Friday (on a Thursday night!)



Hi! For my formerly feral Friday, I'd like to introduce you to KeKee, one of 2 new rescued kitties in my extended family.

A couple of months ago, my mommy's uncle and his girlfriend heard little squeaky sounds from their deck. They saw what they thought was a tiny kitten. Unable to get close, they started setting food out.




Over the course of a few weeks, they brought the kitty closer to the house with the food until one day...she came in! What they thought was a tiny kitten, was actually a starving cat of a little over 1 pound!!!




Now, big softies they are (mommy loves Tony & Connie lots) KeKee has the run of the house and rules the roost with an iron paw! How can you deny those eyes?



Why "KeKee?" Because when mommy's uncle would call her early in the morning for food, he didn't want to wake the neighbors so he shortened "Here Kitty Kitty" to KeKee.
What a little sweetie!




Stay tuned for the introduction of Echo, the floofy kitty my grandma and grandpa rescued a couple of weeks ago. He is a big sweetie!
