Help Us Celebrate 1700 Posts!

Once again Mommy is saying she's just too busy to help us blog so since we can't do it ourselves, we're going to have to take another break.  But, we're not going to take it lying down!

Well, okay, maybe I will.  Anyway, this is our 1700th post so to celebrate, we're going to donate $1 for each comment and we'd like your help in deciding where the donation goes!  Leave a comment before Sunday evening and also give us the name of a charity and we'll donate to the one chosen in a drawing.

Since we'll be "off" until Monday, we want to wish everyone a Happy Easter too!

Be sure to leave us comment and the name of a charity.  We'll draw Sunday evening.  Thank you for helping us celebrate our 1700th post!

Enjoy your Easter weekend!

Tortie Tuesday

We do our part in recycling around here but yet we receive packages filled with non-environmental friendly stuff inside...

I found a solution though.  Repurpose it into a Tortie Patooty Cushion!

Pretty clever don't ya think? It's pretty comfy too!

Be kind to one another and to the environment (and your patooty) too!

Happy Tortie Tuesday!

Weekend Wrap Up

We enjoyed a nice, relaxing but too short weekend.  I snoopervised Daddy mowing the yard...

I love the smell of fresh cut grass!

I also helped Mommy make beady goodies even though she never appreciates my help...

It's not my fault she keeps beads out when I'm trying to clean things off with my tail.  Sheesh!

Anyway, we hope your weekend was a nice one too!

Enjoy the last week of March!

All Work and No Play...

There's been a whole lotta nothing going on around here lately except for us helping watching Mommy prepare tax returns.  We do take every opportunity that we can to make sure she gets a break...
But since she's been too busy to help us blog, we're going to take another short blogcation through next Monday or Tuesday - we don't know how long it'll take to get her to find time to help us.  In the meantime we're going to show her the job description for a CPA - Cats Purrsonal Assistant - to refresh her memory! 

We hope everybuddy has a great rest of the week and weekend!

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday, the bestest day of the week!  Actually, I think every day is a pretty darn good day!  Don't you agree?

Since I am the deep sleeper thinker in the house, I want to take this opportunity to thank Simba and Audrey for giving us the Blooming Brilliant Blog Award...

The rules are to link back to the blog who gave it to us so if you haven't met Simba and Audrey, we certainly suggest you do by clicking here.  You'll be glad you did!

Secondly, we're supposed to give the award to a minimum of four blogs but since we think everybuddy is brilliant, if you'd like this award you are more than welcome to take it!

Lastly we're supposed to answer the question "If you had a brilliant idea, what would it be?"  My brilliant idea would be that every city would have a program to offer spay and neutering of cats and dogs for free to every resident.  The cost of the program would be paid for by the reduced costs of the need for animal shelters so it'd shift the costs to preventing homeless animals instead of dealing with them after the fact.  Any program that would reduce homeless kitties and woofies would be brilliant!

Hope you have a Happy Tortie Tuesday!

Nappus Interruptus

We had a nice Sunday which meant napping in open windows...

Well, until somebuddy came along and wanted to put me to work modeling.  I did not appreciate the interruption so tried to ignore her...

She didn't take the hint so I'd tried the kitty glare...

Since she wouldn't leave, might as well rub my cooties on the prop...

That worked.  She let me be so I promptly resumed my nap!

Hope you had a lovely weekend too!

PSA on Sadieday

Happy Sadieday!  The weather is getting warmer which means more open windows and doors so we thought we'd do a PSA about staying safe while still getting fresh air whiffs.  Our mommy is a worry wart so she advises to check the screens on all your windows to make sure no kitty gets out...

On second floor windows, Mommy won't open them very far since she thinks we'll jump for a birdie and fall out.  You can't hardly tell the window is even open but it is - just a smidgen!  Told ya she's a worry wart...

For the woofies going on strolls, make sure your humans are leashed up and that your collar is secure.  Mommy was put to the test on this a year ago today while strolling with our sisfur Sadie and a dog came barreling towards them...

Nobuddy was hurt except for everybody's ears from Mommy's screaming HBO words at that dog for scaring her to death.  The dog didn't care though...

Anyway, it's been a long wait for nice weather so we just wanted to remind everybuddy to be careful so no kitty or woofie gets loose or hurt!  We do hope you're able to enjoy some fresh air whiffs this Sadieday!

As always, smile and spread those smiles to others and help make their day!

Have a great Sadieday and weekend!

Distraction?

Can you believe that Mommy thinks I'm actually "in the way"

She should prefer to look at ME than a tax program!  I'm going to sit here every day until she realizes this.

Hope you don't make a better door than a window!

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday!  You know, I've been thinking, wouldn't it be wonderful if humans were more like us cats when it comes to taking things in stride and not stress as much?  Even the time change with daylight savings time caused a stir but it didn't bother me at all.  I still got in my 20 hours of sleep no matter what time the clock said...

Mommy always dreads Mondays and tax season but life is too short to live with dread.  She needs to learn to enjoy every moment and seek out the treats that every day offers.  I sure do! 

Think like a Tortie today and notice the joy the day brings!  Then be sure to take a nap! 

Have a Happy Tortie Tuesday!

Monday Already?

Where'd the weekend go?  Do you see it over there?

How about over there?

Nope.  It just looks like Monday out there.

Hope the week goes by as fast as the weekend does!

Finally Friday

We're so happy it's Friday!  Of course every day is like Friday to us but Mommy gets noticeably happier by the end of the week because she knows she's one day from spending an entire weekend catering to our every need!  She can play mousie with us...

She can lay in a sunpuddle with us...

And when it's our naptime, she can enjoy a stroll to check out the signs of spring since we know our sisfur Sadie would have enjoyed that...

Whatever she chooses to do, we hope she has a smile on her face all weekend...

And we hope that you do something to bring a smile to your face too!  Smiles are contagious so be sure to spread yours to others!

Enjoy your weekend!

Because of Us?

Supposedly we're the reason that the sliding glass door blinds haven't been replaced but we don't know why...

We think they work just fine...

Are you blamed for any non re-decorating done in your house too?

Hope you enjoy your day doing whatever you please!

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday!  If you are a fan of our Facebook page then you saw this photo of me with some new earrings Mommy made...

We post sneak peeks of new beady goodies on Facebook but what isn't shown is the quality control testing we do behind the scenes.  I was in charge of inspecting the owl earrings...

They passed the visual inspection but I gave them the Tortie taste test too...

Let's just say they didn't taste like chik-hen...

No beady goodies were harmed in the testing process and the Tortie was well compensated with treats!

Hope you have a great Tortie Tuesday!
Isabella

PeeS:  BeadedTail goodies should be worn, not eaten.

Weekend Wrap Up

We had a nice, long weekend and we relaxed a bit and worked a lot bit too.  The weather was nice so I enjoyed early morning birdie watching...
Before Mommy made me work by doing quality control on her beady goodies.  
Yes, it passes inspection Mommy...
I tried to relax on my beautiful quilt made for us by Tasha, Franklin and Dobby's mom from Mishkat...

But the pawpawrazzi wouldn't leave me alone.  Enough already Mommy!

She cheated and opened the window so I was distracted by the sound of birdies...

It's a tough job being me but somekitty has to do it!

I hope you had a nice weekend too!
