Thankful Thursday!

Recently we were the lucky winners of a giveaway from our furiends Banjo and his mom Catherine! At first we thought we won a visit from the handsome Banjo but Mommy said he's in Saskatchewan, Canada so it's a little too far for him to come visit. Banjo may not have been able to come here but we did receive some very nice gifts from him and his mom. It all came packaged in a very nice little box...

Hey Angel, what are you doin' whapping that mouse? Leave it alone for the photo shoot!

Okay, I guess I'll first thank Banjo for the mouse he tucked in our package. As you can tell, my sisfur Angel snatched it right away.

While she's playing with the mouse, I'll start showing you the other things in the box since I'm the purrfessional here. There's a cute kitty journal and some beautiful handmade cards from Catherine that Mommy really loves - she's going to frame several of them. And there's also - WAIT A MINUTE! There's another mouse in this little pouch for me!

Sorry I lost my purrfesional-ness for a second but I got so excited! Banjo is so thoughtful to send us both mousies! His mom was very thoughtful too with sending lots of other stuffs for our Mommy!

Banjo, being the gentlecat that he is, also sent my sisfur Sadie a present too!

Sadie didn't hold still long enough to pose for many pictures and snatched her bone as soon as the end of the package was opened...

She loved every last bite!

And me and my sisfur Angel love our mousies too!

We all want to thank you very much Banjo and Catherine for the wonderful gifts to celebrate your 700 posts! We appreciate them and are very grateful and wish you many, many more posts to come! We are so glad that we have met you and think you are both very special!

xoxo

Tortie Tuesday

It's Tortie Tuesday! I love Tortie Tuesday because it means I have a day all to myself! I do share from time to time like I did last week but that was only because it was my little sisfur Angel's birthday. Other than that, it's MY day! Anyway, today I'm going to help my mommy while she beads...

I lay here and watch out for stray beads and just basically hold stuff down and look cute...

Uh oh, I think I hear a non-Tortie approaching!

Yep, I sure did!

Uhm, Angel, excuse me but this is TORTIE Tuesday - not TAILSday!

That's right, you just keep on going...

:sigh:

Well, I hope you have a Happy Tortie Tailsday!

Weekend Wrap-up

We had a good weekend and hope you did too! Mommy and Daddy want to thank you for all the anniversary wishes yesterday! More importantly, I thought I'd show you some of the things I did. Saturday night was movie night so I watched Mommy as she watched the movie...

I didn't take my eye off of her...

I'm a good watch dog!

Right Mommy?

Notice the chair I'm in? Mommy wants to get rid of it but I won't let her! It's perfect for movie night Mommy watching!

Enjoy your Monday,

Sadie

PeeS: We want to give a bark out to Khyra's mom Phyll. Phyll has a huge, caring heart and is a tireless supporter/advocate for animals. She transports dogs every weekend across Pennsylvania to help them get that one step closer to their furever home. We admire her efforts so much we were proud to sponsor her 2nd of 2 runs yesterday in memory of Reebok and Panther who were born on August 8th and would have been 22 years old that day. If you haven't met Khyra, her Khousin Merdie and Phyll, please be sure to stop by Khyra's Khorner and say Hi!

Sunday Celebration

Today is our Mommy and Daddy's 22nd anniversary! Since their Gotcha Day was 8-8-88, we had Edi from Memories for Life Scrapbooks make them an album so they'd never forget their day...

and they'll never forget how young they looked a squizillion years ago either...

Thanks Edi for making such a great album for our mommy and daddy! We all really like it very much! We really like the ribbon on it too!

Happy Anniversary Mommy and Daddy!

We'd also like to say Happy World Cat Day to all our kitty furiends and to all the honorary kitties too like our sisfur Sadie!

Here's a link to our post from World Cat Day 2009 about the kitties before us - Reebok and Panther.

Have a great Sunday!

Happy Sadieday!

It's Sadieday! My favorite day of the week! Today I wanted to let you know that I made Mommy and Daddy finally fix up the ugly rock bed that was beside MY deck. You saw it when the neighbor cat Dooney was lounging in it the other day and it was even the background of some photos Mommy took of me although I really poured on the cuteness to keep the attention away from the ugly rock bed behind me...

It was so bad, I didn't even want to be photographed with it although I forgot to put down my tail...

I did put down my paw and said enough is enough - fix up MY yard! They were pretty clueless on what to do but it ended up looking pretty good if I say so myself...

All the neighbor cat smells are gone and I'm going to do my best to keep it that way...

Now I'm proud to show my cute face with MY new flower bed!

As an added bonus, Mommy likes to sit outside with me more since it's relaxing to look at plants rather than the ugly rock bed. And because she's out here, I'm going to go right on over and get a scritch or two behind my ears!

Hope you have a happy and relaxed Sadieday!

Taking Over - Or Not

Hello everyone! I know you all love seeing ME on this blog so I thought I'd take over again today!

Uh oh, a little furry problem just walked in...

If you'll excuse me a minute, I need to keep an eye on this little furry problem...

Angel, just what do you think you're doing with MY chuckwagon? Hey Isabella, can you distract Sadie for a bit!

I'm trying to Angel but I don't think it's working...

You two are messing up my blog takeover plans!

Good thing my bowls are in the dishwasher because I may have to share this blog but I do not share MY food!

Hope your plans for the day pan out!

Sadie

PeeS: The Furkids from Florida named me as their NOMS (Not of my Species) friend today! I'm very honored and would love for you to check it out here! Thank you Sniffie, Allie, Ellie and Tamir!

Happy Birthday Angel!

Today is my little sisfur Angel's 4th birthday! Angel was just 3 months old when we both came to live with Mommy and Daddy in November 2006. She became my favorite little cuddler from day one...

She still my favorite cuddler today even though she's a tad bit bigger!

Happy 4th Birthday Angel!

We all love you furry much!

Isabella, Sadie, Mommy and Daddy

Alone Time?

For some reason, whenever I try to enjoy some alone time, I never really feel alone...

Do you ever have a feeling that you're being watched?

Hope you enjoy your Monday!

Silly Sunday Scenes

Looking out the window is one of our favorite things to do...

Usually there isn't much going on in our cul-de-sac but today there's a deer eating lunch at our neighbor's...

The neighbor cat Bourke peeked around a bush to see what the deer was having for lunch...

Bourke went around behind the bush which confused the deer...

After a bit, Bourke saunters out from another spot which further confused the deer...

He wondered what in the world that little orange creature was and where'd he go...

He decided he'd sit and think about it for awhile! Ha roo roo!

Sometimes it pays off to be a Nosy Neighbor!

Hope you have a great Sunday!

Sadie
