That's a Big Box Mom!

 "So mom, is the stuff in the box for us?"

 "TOYS!!  GREENIES!!  Ummm, is that a litter scoop?

Evile Pernicious Flea stuff?  We don't need that!!"

 "Look!!  Look!!

Mom put up the window seat in my favorite window!!"

 "Ummm, you can stop taking pictures anytime mom."

"Okay, we've looked at everything, taken a nap, played with the boxes, taken a nap, run from you trying to put Evile Pernicious Flea stuff on us, taken a nap, played with more stuff, taken a nap and now we can't think of anything to doooOOOOooo!!  Meeeeoooooommmmm!!"

Testing of the Trees... (& Our Review at the Bottom)

 "Hmmmm, I think I hear the living room cat tree calling me."

 "Ah yes!  Now that this is up against the wall it isn't as wiggly!

And this is the perfect place to look outside!"

 "Hey!  You're interrupting my window watching!!"

 "Scram!!  Go away stinky ole' Knives!!"

I can't find the ai file to pull the original graphic but this is the one I got on my new coffee mug  (it looks great on the mug by the way!).  I wanted to review the cat trees.  I paid under $40 for each.  They look great!  The big fault is that they are both wobbly.  However, there is an easy fix.  I found that just setting them up against a wall makes this problem go away, although if your cat is heavy you might want to put it in a corner or use an anchor.  The smaller tree (the beige one) has smaller platforms.  All three cats that I've put on the top platform have chosen to jump down from there as opposed to going down to the lower level.  That said, they did like the bottom condo as well as the top platform and I think they will use the middle platform to get up to the top.  This tree would be good for kittens as well as mini-kitties.  If anyone has any questions about either of these feel free to ask me!!  I'll review the tent once we've actually used it outside which may not be until Spring!  The last box will be here today!!  Our next post will be about the new window perch (going into the kitchen) as well as new toys toys toys!!  (and greenies and Pernicious Flea stuff)

Thank You!! and What's Coming for the Horde!!

 "I want to thank everycat (and woofies) who came to celebrate my Gotcha Day!!  Here is another picture of me when I first got here."

 "I was curious about the woofies next door."

 "I still want to go outside with the boys!"

"But I never mind sleeping with my twin brother of another mother!  Mom decided to do another retrospective because she needs to get a new battery for the new camera.  The one that came with it isn't charging!!  I'd like to ask too, iffen anyone has a spare green paper, we have a donate button that would help pay back mom for the new toys that are coming!  Look down below for what we're getting!!"

In 4-7 business days the Horde will get:

1 -  Cat Napper Window Perch (we think she should have gotten 2!!)

1 - Cataction Magnicat Toy (we're not sure what that is but the picture looks interesting)

7 - new toys (mom wouldn't tell us what they were so everycat has to wait until they get here!

5 - different flavors of GREENIES!!!  (GO MOM!)

3 - Gimpet Cat Grass (we're not sure if that's as good as outdoor grass but we're willing to give it a go)

In 8-13 business days the Horde will get:

1 - Happy Habitat Cat Tent (mom says we won't use that until spring but Audrey's not sure if she'll like it.  Star is betting Zaphy that mom will put it down on the floor some so Audrey gets used to it now.)

1 - Dreamworld Banalona Cat Tree (we only have one tree now and mom says we need more)

1 - Dreamworld Altea Platinum Gray Cat Tree (so that makes three trees altogether)

Oh, and mom got more stinky Pernicious Flea stuff too but we don't like talking about that.

PS There is a little kitten named Baker who needs YOUR HELP!!  He fell!!  His Feeder needs ~$600 (twice what mom spent!) and you can donate at kitten rescue or feral cat behavior.  Mom is going to donate a few greens papers too and we'd love for you to do so as well if you have some to spare.  Thanks!

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Kitty Horde & Their Feeders

Start Getting Ready!!

 "My first birthday is coming up!!  Mom had it down as

the first but she ran across my records the other day and

it said mid-June so we're going to celebrate on Saturday

or Sunday depending on what's going on around here."

 "I've been helping taking especial care of mom 'cus she's been

hurting & Jen's in the hospital.  I am very good at this!!"

 "Don't I look ever so grown-up and stunningly beautiful??"

 "Yeah, I guess she's growing up.  She isn't hissing at me as much."

  "I would like everycat to come celebrate with us!  We may just

party allllll weekend!!  We'll have plenty of greenies & catnip & valerian (mmmmmmm valerian!) and lots of other yummy stuff!"

Four Months With Audrey

 "This is me when I was a baby and lived at Chrystal's house.  She was my foster mommy and has a private rescue for cats & woofies.  She's going on vacation tomorrow  but keep an eye out on her blog!  Your house might make the purrfect Forever Home for one of her rescues!"

 "This is me looking out the window while driving to my new

Forever Home!!  I'm licking my lips because mom said I'd get

greenies when we got home!  I am a very very good car rider.

Everyone was very impressed, which is as it should be!!

Everycat knows that black cats are the best!"

 "Playing with hair bands is my most favorite game!  I don't

chew on them.  I carry them all over the house and try to get

the Feeders to play with me.  I like to skitter scat them most in mom's bathroom though.  There is a scale where I can hide them

(and move around to get them back!) and a stool where I chase them around the legs.  I like to steal hair bands off of dad's nightstand."

(PS Everycat needs to be watched to make sure they play

safely with hair bands!  Swallowing them is a Bad Thing!)

"Next month I will be one year old!!  I'm as long as my twin

brother of another mother Star, but I am more petite.

Which is understandable since I am a Princess."

"I love the Feeders in my house and I get along with everycat

but Knives, my archnemesis.  We're getting better though.  We still chase each other off of places and I still hiss at him but he's started trying to touch noses with me & stuff.  ICK!  Knives cooties!!"

Mean Ole' Mommy!!

 "Mean ole' mommy won't let anyone OUT!!"

 "This makes emo kitty even more emo.

I prefer the outdoor kitty litter."

 "At least mom is giving me greenies when

she viciously forces me to take my meds!"

"LOTS of greenies!!"

"Well, if she feeds us enough greenies we guess we'll keep her."

What We Want For Christmas...

 "We want mom to get a new camera because we're tired of seeing the same ones over and over and over and over and over and..."

 "Dad should fix the dryer or  they should get a new

one so I can have warm clothes to sleep on.  Because

warm clothes are extremely important for cats."

 "Dad's car needs to get fixed.  Mom put in a new battery but messed it up so his car's computer fried.  When get a new computer in it we'll find out what's wrong.  Oh, and mom needs a new tire for the van.  One of them blew out.  I blame my brother Zaphoid.  He likes to use the car tires for scratching posts.  Hmmm, maybe we need to have our scratching posts recovered!!  Dad's gotten sisal rope but no one can find his staple gun so he or mom can put it on!  Bad Feeders!!"

 "I think mom did get us a new toy with a scratchy thing

in the middle.  And she always gets us catnip.  But she'd

better get us GREENIES!!!  We all looooove the greenies!!"

"We did this all last night and this morning.

In and out and in and out and in and..."

Fashionable Friday

Zaphy here!!  I'm going to go with my younger mom when she gets her Senior pictures made!!  I've got to start practicing my posing so that I look my very best.

PPSS Tanis' mom says that he is eating better!!

WANTED! Mister Kitten!!

And Where Was Emo Kitty??

When I woke up I could see neither hide nor hair of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Kitty Horde.  This did not last long.  Once one of them realized that I was up and about they began to descend upon me.  "Oh mom!  I was just passing through.  I don't suppose... I mean, you don't happen to have any... treats, do you??"  ::rolls eyes:: 

Yes, it's true... cats can become addicted to greenies.

Zaphy??  Zaphy is addicted to being waited on.

"Oh woe is me!  Just call me Emo Kitty!"

PS How many of you were able to spot Star in the new quilt pictures??  ::grin::
