Tortie Tuesday

Bella, are you comfy?

Of course I am Mommy, why do you ask?

What? 

It takes a special Tortie to be able to make a pillow out of silverware. Just sayin.

Hope you have a comfy Tortie Tuesday!

Isabella

PeeS: The silverware was left on the bed after Mommy was cleaning out the linen closet. We don't normally have silverware in a bag on the bed! 

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a great weekend! Even though we had the hots, I enjoyed a sunpuddle...

Angel enjoyed the sunlight too until Mommy made her move. Something about direct sun, too hot, blah, blah, blah. Mommy's a spoilsport...

After we had some thunder yesterday and Angel hid somewhere that Mommy couldn't find her, we're not looking forward to this coming week. Fireworks don't scare me but they terrify Angel. The neighbor kid shot off lots of fireworks last year so Mommy is preparing for this year in case he does it again. Angel can hear fireworks (and delivery trucks) from miles away so there's nothing that can drown out the booms from next door. The only thing Mommy knows to use is Rescue Remedy which helps some. Do you have any other suggestions to help make this a less stressful week for Angel (and Mommy)?

Anyway, we hope you have a wonderful day!

Isabella

Finally Friday

We're glad it's Friday although we're in the midst of the really hots. How hot is it you ask? It's so hot that I have to air out my Tortie tummy...

Speaking of hots, Happy Birthday to our Grandma from Vegas! I hope you enjoy your day stripping!

Bella! She's not stripping!

Mommy, I thought you said she was going to strip to celebrate her birthday.
No, she's going to THE Strip - it's a destination in Las Vegas...

Oh, I see. It's so hot my brain is melting and I can't think straight.
Isabella, it's hot OUTside but it's still as cool as always in here.
Well then clearly I need sleep so if you'll excuse me, it's time for a nap...

Hope you stay cool and get plenty of rest today!
Enjoy your weekend too!

Isabella

Window Whiffin'

Each day this week is going to be hotter than the day before until it gets to 100 around Friday. So far the nights and mornings are cool (50s and 60s) so I'm able to enjoy window whiffs and sunshine on my furs...

Mommy knows that kitties, especially white kitties, are prone to sunburn and can even get skin cancer so she closes up all the blinds and curtains way too early before the sun is very strong. She's a worry wart so takes all precautions to protect me and she'll worry about you too so please be careful about too much direct sunlight on your furs, nose and ears. Practice safe sunpuddling! 

Hope you have a window whiffin kind of day!

Angel

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday - my favorite day of the week! Today is the day that I get to do a whole lot of whatever I want to do which of course is a whole lot of nothing in a sunpuddle...

Mommy says I do a whole lot of nothing every other day of the week too so I should actually DO something else on Tortie Tuesday. I let her know what I think of that...

That'll teach her to stop talking such nonsense. Now if you'll excuse me, I've got a whole lot of nothing in a sunpuddle to get back to.

Hope you have a day filled with a whatever you want!

Isabella

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a great weekend! We had one mixed with work and relaxation. I snoopervised Mommy making beady goodies from my scratcher despite being taunted by a birdie...

Do you see that little guy on top of the Birdie TV antennae? He's lucky he's out there and I'm not...

While I helped Mommy and tried to figure out a way to hush the birdie up, Isabella was working hard holding down the couch...

We sure take our jobs seriously don't we? We had time off yesterday when Mommy and Daddy went to the coast for Father's Day.  They saw lots of fishing boats in the bay... 

Would you believe they came home with NO fish? None! Zero, zip, nada!
*shakes head*

Anyway, we hope your weekend was filled with birdies, fish or whatever makes you happy!

Angel

PeeS: Today is the third anniversary of our sisfur Sadie going to the Rainbow Bridge. We still miss her but we're able to remember her with happy memories now instead of sadness. We're not ready for another woofie yet but Mommy and Daddy have gone from saying never again to maybe someday. We're waiting for them to ask our opinion! Give your loved ones a hug today and smile in memory of Sadie!

Happy Father's Day!

We're interrupting our normal break because we couldn't let this day go by without telling our Daddy Happy Father's Day! Everyone knows that I'm Daddy's Girl and am stuck to him like glue...

But Angel loves being with Daddy too...

We love our Daddy and wish him and also our Grandpa from Kansas a very Happy Father's Day! 

Happy Father's Day to all the dad of kids with and without fur!

Isabella and Angel

International Box Day!

One of the bestest day of the year is Box Day! We're going to celebrate all kinds of boxes today! We love flat boxes...

Small boxes...

Short boxes...

Full boxes...

Pizza boxes...

And memories of boxing with our angel sisfur Sadie...

With so many great boxes, we think we should celebrate a Box Year! Do you agree?

Hope you have a box-y day!

Isabella and Angel 

Wordless Wednesday

Your Tortie-licious BatCat,

Isabella

Tortie Tuesday

Imagine my surprise when I went downstairs and found two boxes destined for the recycle bin...

I have a much better idea. I'm going to recycle them into a Tortie bed...

Mommy doesn't agree. She's a spoilsport.

Hope your Tortie Tuesday is filled with whatever you enjoy!

Isabella

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a great weekend! We had a busy weekend. Mommy was finally feeling better and actually was able to get outside for a bit. She hadn't seen the garden in over a week...

Although she was better, Daddy came down with the bug so we had to keep our nurses' hats on. We took turns holding him down and helping Mommy with beady goodies. It may not look like it, but I'm working hard...

We had nice weather which always helps with the reception for Birdie TV. Do you see the little chickadee in the bush? Talk about reality TV!

What did you do this weekend?

Hope your week is off to a great start!

Angel and Isabella

Finally Friday

Well, it's been a long week of us taking care of Mommy since LAST Friday when she got the flu. Good news is she's finally getting better although she sounds like a crotchety old man when she talks. It startles us every time she talks! Anyway, we've even worked on taxes a few hours a day since Wednesday and we made some earrings that we got a custom request for last Thursday. The bad news is somemommy hasn't taken any pictures of us. Okay, that's not quite true and since we don't have any alternatives at the moment, we're going to show you her view of us taking a bath. We won't get into the privacy issues nor the poor quality of the photos here on the blog but trust us, we will take it up with her!

Despite the lousy photos, we're still very cute don't you think?

We hope to be back up to par by Monday. In the meantime, hope you have a fabulous Friday and a wonderful weekend!

Angel and Isabella

Good Morning Sunshine!

We've been having the hots this week which means windows close up early. I savor my morning whiffs as the sun comes up...

Nothing better than cool morning air to get the day started right. After breakfast of course!

Do you enjoy fresh air whiffs in your neck of the woods?

Hope you enjoy a sunny day!

Angel

Tortie Tuesday

Since I'm a purrfessional relaxer, it's been my job to make sure Mommy relaxes in order to feel better. Sure, my little sisfur watches over her too but now that Mommy is at the incredibly annoying coughing stage, I had to take over. I'm the only one who can handle the noise and bed shaking that goes on when she has a coughing fit...

Oooo, that was a bad one Mommy. Are you okay?

Don't worry, I'm watching over you...

What do you mean it's hard to breathe with me on you?

Sheesh. You'd think I'd be appreciated a little bit more. Nursing a loud, whiny Mommy is a tough job but someTortie's got to do it!

Hope you're appreciated today!

Isabella

Weekend Wrap Up

We hope you had a good weekend! Our's was a big bust because Mommy came down with the flu. Yep, the flu. In June. Who does that? Other than a 2.5 hour trip to Urgent care yesterday, she was in bed all day, every day. We are good nurses and kept our eyes on her...

We're going to hold her down today too so she gets better soon. It's a tough job being nurses but somekitties got to do it!

By the way, did you notice that our blog is looking new and spiffy? We owe it all to Oz the Terrier's mom Gina! She's changed our blog into one that Mommy can more easily work on since the other one was custom and required html changes which was totally impossible for Mommy.  Mommy still needs to tweak a couple of things when she's feeling better but we're extremely grateful for Oz's mom for everything she's done to update our look! Thank you Gina! We love it!

We hope you have a great start to your week!

Angel

Finally Friday

We're glad it's Friday! For one thing, we're off work today so maybe now we'll finally get our loot from BlogPaws. Plus, it's the start of a sunpuddle filled weekend so I've already staked out my position...

Yep, it's going to be a wonderful weekend!

Hope it's a lovely weekend in your neck of the woods too!

Angel

Break Time!

I'm a hard worker but I also know the importance of taking breaks...

Especially ones that involve scritches. Just sayin. 

Mommy pretends to be annoyed when I demand break time but she can't resist me. I have her wrapped around my floofy paw! 

Hope you enjoy plenty of breaks today!

Angel

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday! My favorite day of the week! Yesterday my little sisfur made it seem like she's the only one glad Mommy is home but I'm glad too. I even helped hold down the box with wheels so she couldn't leave again...

Because of Mommy whining about being tired us holding the box with wheels down so long, we haven't got our loot that's inside it yet. Well, we did get one thing Mommy won at BlogPaws but I can't figure out what the heck it is...

We'll eventually get our loot so I'm not too worried about it. In the mean time, I'm enjoying having Mommy home...

I'd enjoy it even more if she'd rub my tummy! Just sayin.

Hope you enjoy your Tortie Tuesday!

Isabella 

Weekend Wrap Up

Okay, we admit, we enjoyed our daddy time but I let him know yesterday morning that I couldn't wait for Mommy to get home. He told Mommy I was whiny. Whatever. Thankfully she knew better. As soon as she got home I greeted her at the door and rubbed all over her. I also let her know under no uncertain terms would I allow her to take the box with wheels anywhere anytime soon...

She reminded me that our loot was inside so I did let her open it. Imagine our surprise when we found out that the TSA searched our loot!

Everything was accounted for so all is well! Anyway, as Mommy was unpacking she told us all about her trip. Turns out she cheated on us again with Summer. She's pretty smitten with that girl especially after Summer touched her nose to Mommy's then rubbed her face against her cheek. Yep, she had her by her pretty little paw after that! But rumor has it Summer gives head butts to a lot of people but don't tell Mommy!

Seems that our Flats made it around Nashville too. They went to the Hermitage with some friends...

Looks like they had a lot of fun! Mommy said she thought of me all the time she was gone even when she saw a dog's tail...

The dog's name was Katie Cat so maybe that's why. Anyway, I'm glad she's home and I know she's glad to be home too. She's super tired so I'll make sure she gets plenty of rest today and that I get plenty of treats!

Hope your week is off to a good start too!

Angel
