Remembering Audrey


Today we especially remember Audrey, who went to the Rainbow Bridge on May 10th, 2014.     We miss her every day, her beautiful pale fur, her sweet purrs, and fun ways such as curling up in Dad's arms when he was using the laptop.     Dear girl, we will see you again one day.

Also, my family's other kitties who went to the rainbow bridge:  Rusty, Kimi, Smudgie, and the kitties Mom remembers from her childhood:   Davey, Preebo and China Cat.      And my brother's dear boy Terence.

And Auntie M's sweet ones too:   Flossie, Kimi-2 and Amy.    

We also miss some woofies who were in  Mom's family, who went to the Rainbow Bridge - Misty, Taffy, Vicky and Moppet.   

Run free and happy, all you sweeties!!

Sunday Selfie

Friends, I know I have been MIA for a while:  here is a Sunday Selfie to celebrate the beautiful Sunday we have here today.      Dad is busy working on staining our deck, otherwise I would show you myself out there enjoying the whiffies.


Instead you get me with some slightly annoyed ears.     I don't know what I was annoyed about when I took my selfie - probably the flashie focus light.  

Once again, I am joining with The Kitties Blue at The Cat On My Head for today's blog hop.

World Cat Day and Bootsie Needs Our Help

Today is World Cat Day.    You mean EVERY day is not World Cat Day?    


One way we can help celebrate all that we have on World Cat Day is to help kitties who are less fortunate than ourselves.       One of these sweet kitties is Bootsie, who was abandoned by his family and has a terribly painful ear condition that needs surgery.     Brian and Terry Frum  have set up a YouCaring site where you can read more about Bootsie and his plight, and make a donation.       No amount is too little: every bit helps.    Just click HERE.    There are also several updates about how Bootsie is doing, so do read them too.

Team Dash Kitten has added an auction they will be hosting for the whole WORLD to help Bootsie. To participate in the auction, either by donating something for it, or by bidding, go to ALL EARS FOR BOOTSIE


Ann of Zoolatry, thank you for both these great graphics!

NOMS Day



Today is NOMS Day, a day to celebrate our other species friends and encourage tolerance and friendship.    Thanks to The Cat Realm for the great badge!        Here at our house, I am the only inside pet, but outside we have bird feeders that attract a lot of birds, even a hummingbird feeder that has frequent visits from one female hummingbird.   She is SO fast, I have no picture.   Then we have chipmunks running around our stone wall, and even a woodchuck who visits quite a lot.  Yup, no pictures.  

However, the most exciting visitors this summer have been the deer - it is hard to call them VISHUS deer, because the little ones are so cute.      The main visitors we see are two different mamas, one with a single fawn and another with twins.   Dad thinks the younger Mom of the singleton is the daughter of the other one.     Here are some pictures:








Inside the house, I have to be satisfied with some very quiet NOMS friends, like Mr/Miss seal here:
