7 Word Wednesday

H*ll yeah I want some cheezy poofs!






Mommy is still kinda busy this week, but we're making the rounds to all our friends. We missed visiting you all last week and are catching up with all your posts.

Roscoe

We will always remember you Roscoe and will keep Opus and your mommy and family in our purrs and prayers.

Thing in a Bag, Purring for Roscoe

First, I want to say I am thinking of our friend Roscoe and purring and praying for his full recovery. Please stop by and leave some words of comfort for Roscoe, Opus and their mommy.


We've all heard of that cool cat toy "Thing in a Bag." I've never had one and always wondered what is in that bag.


Now I know...it is Bengals fans


It is to early to lose hope for the whole season. We're hoping for 8 and 8. We think that is a reasonable hope.

Season Starts Sunday

UPDATE: Crap, crap, crappity, crap, crap. That was a very bad game. As painful as a shot in the a*s. It is going to be a long season.

Oh Bast, please give us a win....



Let them play with 1/2 the aggressiveness I showed while playing string toy this morning.


Or at least, help us not look silly....


Who Dey!

Remembering Texas

We just met Texas a few months ago and enjoyed visiting each time. What a brave and funny Mancat. We will miss him and his humor. His beans were so loving and caring thru his treatments and did the most loving and brave thing in the end. They are in our thoughts and prayers during this sad time.

I am proud to say I got one of the 3rd place awards for the Funny Cat Fridays. Bendrix is still strutting that he was chosen by Texas's mommy for this honor.

We post it in his memory and will treasure it always.

Until we meet again Texas.

Ticked off Tuesday

My mommy wears two hats at her job, Markting Manager and working with customers in the store. So, now, around time of the when the Summer Clearance Sale she is busy with advertising and sending direct mails as well as waiting on tons of customers. Since she has been doing her stoopid work, I have been sorely neglected.

I even missed Billy's party cause she fell asleep on the sofa!! I am really ticked off. She has been neglecting me and this blog.

The other things keeping her busy are working on a super secret Christmas present (we can't say what or for who cause that person reads this blog) AND being on the fundraising committee for our local shelter. They are having their second largest fundraiser of the year Sept. 13.

I can deal with the fundraising, but the rest has to go. How can I buy a lottery ticket kitties? I gotta rig that drawing so she can stay home with me ALL THE TIME and wait on me. Bendrix is working hard to get us attention after the beans go to bed. He walks on her and attacks her feet and hands and chews her hair and sticks our nose in her face, but, it just isn't the same...

She sayz that things will settle a bit next week, but I'm not holding my breath. We will try to visit as much as we can, and keep up on our news at the Blogosphere News Page.

Don't forget us!!

A Wedding

Congratulations and Best Wishes to Chairman Mao & Ariel!

Bendrix and I are giving you each this copper birdfeeder. That way whenever you look at the one you have, you know that the other is looking at it too. Like the moon but better...cause it will have yummy fev-vers on it.

Thursday Theme Song

In the eyes of a kitty, the unsuspecting eater, had better know the rules of getting fed.


When the eyes of the kitty are upon you...

Any food you have they're going to see...
When you're in the kitchen look behind you...

Cause that's where the kittys going to be...

Top Five and Teeth and Toes

Sigh, Forbes.com did a study of the top five worst cities to be a sports fan. Cincinnati is number 5. I can't say I disagree, but I hate seeing it in black and white. Daddy and I vented our frustration on the mousie on the string toy.



this is where my claws pulled the mouse toy off the string and into my teeths.

Castle made me feel much better by giving me the Gold Card Award! The Gold Card Award, is given to bloggers who "are always working to make things better for all cats and doggies". I feel all warm and fuzzy that such a nice cat as Castle feels that way about me.


I have to give the award to only 5 friends. Four of these friends must be dedicated followers of me and Bendrix's blog. One should be a new blogger and live in a different part of the world. Each awardee must link back to whomever gave the award. It is so hard to choose only 5 friends when so many are deserving.

First my sweet lady cat Brandi. She always keeps up on what is happening in the blogosphere and keeps all who need it in her purrs and prayers. Even when her mommy needed help, she kept all those who needed prayers in her heart.

Grr, Midnight and Cocoa were our first visitors and they do nothing if not support needy kitties, woofies and keep us posted on those who need help. They go above and beyond for sure.

Max is one kick a*s kitty. He is the reason mommy started my blog. When Millie was just a sick, injured kitten that needed a forever home, he lead the charge to raise money for her VET bills. We realized what a great community this is and had to be a part of it. Also, he helps his Woman put together all those books for us that support needy fuzzies. He also poos a will, and that is just good for everyone.

Veronica and Fig help with Veronica's reviews of toys and brushes, and Fig is an honest to goodness therapy cat! He visits beans in nursing homes that need company. Aren't they nice??

I tried very hard to find a new cat blogger that also lives in another country but I couldn't. We googled and everything! So, we are giving this award to Harry, a new blogger, because his beans must be very sweet to take care of him and all his kitten siblings.

Since Harry is not from out of the country, we will balance it out with another brand new blogger, Milo who couldn't get cuter if he tried. He always makes us smile, AND his beans are huge Jimi Hendrix fans. Awesome!

We wish we could give this award to everyone!!

We had a very exciting day for Not the Mama Day yesterday. Mommy found TWO kitties under her car when she left the dentist office yesterday. One climbed right in to the open door! After many many phone calls, the kitties are safely in a foster situation where they will hopefully find a nice forever home soon. The little ginger one is only around 6 months old and not neutered. The black and white is around 4 and has been neutered, his microchip was not updated. Sad. Make sure after your beans move, they update your information!!!
We don't know how they found each other, but we are glad they did so they can be a comfort to each other in their nice warm foster home. It all happened so fast we didn't even get pictures!! Thank you for being such a great role model Mo.

Not the Mama Day! Mancatting Up

Today is Not the Mama Day!! Mo has done so much for the cat blogosphere and all the needy kitties who cross his path. They know who to go to for help. He is one heck of a guy and I think, even tho he is not a cat, he is a great example of what a Mancat should be, and that is a big compliment. We hope you enjoy your day Mo! You deserve it.

I'm am such a Mancat! Yesterday was one crazy, stormy Sunday. Mommy made my post and then went to eat breakfast. When she came back, our internets were down! She called the company and it was a problem in our area. It was so hot and humid.

Then it started thundering, and raining hard and flashes going off outside. The power kept going off. It was crazy loud! It made me think of all our friends who have been suffering thru Tropical Storm Faye. *shudder*

Knowing how our friends have had to deal with it, I decided to Mancat up and face those boomies head on! Check me out being all brave in my hidey hole and not under the coffee table.

Check out the glow from my House Panther eyes!!

You can tell I'm nervous by my tail.

Here is daddy telling me how brave I am for being there.
Some of the darkness in the window is just because of the flash, but these were taken at 6:00pm and it was DARK outside.
The worst part was the TV wouldn't work cause the power kept going off! My beans were concerned they would have to converse together.

Sadly, I found out today my woofie friend Boogie went to the Rainbow Bridge on Saturday. I'm sure he is with his sister running and playing in the grass and chasing butterflies. Please leave a comforting note for Boogie's mommy and daddy and also his cousins over at Katnippia.
