Saturday Chores!

Hi everyone! My new sisfur Abbie and I have been helping momma and daddy with the chores hoping that that would mean more pets for us. Abbie loads the dishwasher while I mop the floor. It's tuff work, but we like to pull our weight.

Eliot has been making tons of updates to our site including a new profile picture and lots of blog roll names.

We do have some bad news, our momma did not get into her first choice law school. She was kinda upset at first, but we were our cutest and she's feeling better now. She told us we're probably going to be moving someplace 14 hours away by car called cannettee-cut - how long is 14 hours anyway and where is this cannettee-cut? Kind of sounds like it involves food.

Have any of you kitties moved real far? How did you move? My mom said she'll need to do lots of research before we move, so I thought I'd get all your guys's opinions to help her.

Purrs,

Emily

PS. To my darling Shamy, I had so much fun on your porchy last week. It was so good to snuggle with you. I'm so glad we met, I'm such a lucky girl cat. Purrst and headrubs to you!

Tuesday Tails...

Hello everyone! I first want to thank all their kitties for their well wishes. My eye is doing much better. It's still leaky, but I open it all the way all the time. I sure do hate having that medicine squirted in my eye though. Mom thought I was mad at her because she's the one that squirts it in my eye, so I had to snuggle with her all night last night to let her know I know she's doing what's best for me.

Above is a picture of my tail next to my new sisfur's tail. I am quite a bit larger than her but her tail is even longer and fluffier than mine. I must say I'm very jealous. She's ok for a sisfur, at least she doesn't bunny kick me all the time like Emily. She likes to lay near me, which is cool I guess. Mom and dad say we're long lost twinsies, whatever that means.

Hope everyone is having a good day!

Midnight Monday

Momma says I'm so dark it's hard to see how pretty I am. I sure do like my new home. My brother Eliot and I are long lost twinsies; we act so much alike. And I even really like Emily even though she doesn't seem to like me very much.

On Saturday I was very worried because my brother Eliot had to go to the vet. His eye was all swollen and leaky. My mom and dad were worried maybe I brought something home to him. Turns out it was just a scratch though, probably from Emily bunny kicking his head. They have to put this stuff right on his eyeball and he whines and makes them feel bad about it! I wouldn't much like having stuff put on my eyeball either though.

Other than that things are going great. I'm discovering all sorts of things and helping out by catching buggies. I love to fun and jump and play. And there's so many birdies outside, it's very exciting, escpecially when the windows are open. And it's so great meeting so many furry friends online to play with.

Wide Body Wednesday: Percy's on a Diet

So ever since mom and dad got that skinny new kitty, they have been sayin I need to go on a diet. I guess they have seen how skinny other kitties are and they want me to be more like a regular cat. But that's hard work... I don't really like to move around that much... besides, I'm not really fat, I'm just big-bodied.

But they kept pokin my belly and telling me I need to lose a few pounds, so I've finally accepted it. Now I have to eat yucky chicken 2 times a day. I don't eat much though, and I'd much rather be having my nice dry food whenever I want it, but I guess it can't hurt to lose a little weight.


Do I really look fat?

Introducing... Harper Abigail Stephens, and Midnight Mondays!

Hi to all you kitties, I'm Abbie and this is my first Midnight Monday post!

The man and woman adopted me from PetSmart a couple of nights ago. They really seem to like me. I like them a lot, it's the best to cuddle up with one of them and take a nice long nap! (They want me to call them mommy and daddy, but it seems a little soon for that...

There's this one cat here who looks just like me, except bigger and gray colored! I'm like his shadow. He's really nice to me - here we are hanging out together.

The woman says that she was looking for a buddy for Eliot, so I guess I can do that. He doesn't smell that bad, I guess, for a man cat.

Then there's the mean cat. Emily doesn't really like me, and hisses at me a lot. But the woman says Emily doesn't like anyone, and that if she's going to like anyone it'll be me eventually (she's a nice lady for saying that).

Big old Percy hissed at me some, then he decided I was okay. He still stares me down, though. That's okay because I just go up to him and sniff his head.

Mom's eye is all purpley today because she slipped and fell in the bathroom. I asked her why she didn't land on her feet like I would... duh! She and dad stayed home and petted me all day though, so that's good. I don't think she's hurt too bad. She just looks like a bathtub whacked her.

Oops, I went and called them mom and dad. I'm getting more used to it...

Good to meet efurryone!

--Abbie

Quiz!

Hi efurrybody, Emily here - I'm just responding to my favorite man cat Shamy's quiz tag! Purrs and nose kisses, Shamy! XO

A) Four places we have lived:

Eliot and Percy lived at Pets Inc's shelter (before they got the nice new big red barn shelter that mommy and daddy go to every couple of weeks); that's where they said mommy and daddy adopted them. I lived at the PetSmart for a little while. Before that, we were all living in different places in the Outside (it was scary!). Now we all live with mommy and daddy in our apartment in Columbia, but we're moving soon - I wonder where?

B) Four things I love to watch: BUGS! I love bugs cause I can chase em. And there's birds outside that like to sit on the side of the apartment. I like to watch Animal Planet when Mom turns it on for me, and I watch Law and Order with her sometimes.

C) Four places I have been outside my home: In the box-with-a-door. I went to gramma's house a couple times. I went to see the scary lady at the vet. One time, my mom and dad put a string on me and tried to take me out but I got scared because it's the Outside, and that's scary.

D) Four websites I visit daily: Katnippia kitties' blog... especially SHAMY! ;*
Skeezix
Cat Blogosphere
Daisy the Curly Cat (Since she's a surjin I'm trying to apply to be a nurse)

E) Four of my favorite foods: kibbles! treats! BUGS!! and anything dad is eating cause he will feed me and mom won't.

F) Four places I would rather be right now: Curled up with Shamy on his porch. In my tunnel. At the top of the cat tree. Other than that, the window seat watching the birds.

G) Four toys I have owned and played with: My favorite thing in the world is the bright spot on the floor! When it comes out I go crazy. It's like a buggy I can never catch... I love my kitty tunnel. I like fevvers and bouncy balls.

H) Four nicknames my mom has tried to assign one of us: Emily Lou (sing it, like "Winnie the Pooh"). Percy is "the leg warmer" and Eliot is Hoodeeni cause he likes to try to escape and one time he scratched his way out of his box-with-a-door. Dad called me a demon cat one day, does that count?


I) Regarding Catnip: My name is Emily and I am a nipaholic. I'm a member of NA (Nipheads Anonymous) and I'm trying to overcome the addicshun.

J) Regarding Cat Grass: I dunno. Eliot really likes it. I like to sit on it.

K) First four things I'd buy after winning the lottery: A big house for mommy and daddy with a cat tree room, and it would have a big porch where I can watch the birdies. Yeah, and I'd buy a birdie. And one of those hamster things in PetSmart. Yum. And of course I'd get Shamy and me a round trip ticket to a nice island getaway, somewhere where they worship cats like the gods we know we are! :)

L) Four things I do besides eat, sleep, and litterbox: I like to run from one room to another as fast as I can go. I love watching TV with mommy! Bunnykicking Eliot in the head is fun. And I like hunting buggies.

M) Four things I want to do this summer: catch up on my sleeping, chase some butterflies, and pounce some lizards. Mom and dad are going to be moving - looks like I am too whether I want to or not.

N) My four most prized possessions that have limited value to anyone else: My mom's hand, my tunnel, my cat tree, my family!

O) What I’m going to do before tomorrow is over: Chase Eliot, eat about a cup of kibbles, forge my Russian Blue pedigree papers, take over the world.

P) Which of the following is your favorite place to hide and play? I like to hide in the old TV stand under the window - my soft blanky is under there. I also like my tunnel, my cat tree, and sitting under my daddy's feet.

Q) Four other "pets" your staff have kept with you: Eliot and Percy.

R) Four furiends I tag to respond: I open it to anyone who wants to! Do it! It's fun!

Love,
Emily

Big News Coming!!!

And Beau! We love your blogs, it wouldn't be the same without you guys.

We will have a big announcement on Monday!

In an unrelated event, mom got her scores back and they were better but not as good as she was hoping for. But we're all very glad it's over and now we just wait and see what schools accept her. I think any school will be lucky to have her, she's the smartest mommy I have ever known!

Emily will be responding to Shamy's tag very soon; she's up in the cat tree pouting but she can't resist Shamy!

-Eliot

MOMMA WILL NOT LET US ON THE COMPUTER!!!

She just keeps refreshing the law school website saying her score will be here anytime now! She's been saying that for 3 days! We only got to post this because she went to the bathroom... We hope that stupid score comes soon and it's good. We don't even want to know what will happen if it's not what she's hoping for.

-Percy, Eliot and Emily
