Chrissymouse Carol on Sunday


I haf a wish for a warm cat bed for Chrissymouse Day.  For now I haf to be happy wif laying on da floor fing where da heat comes owt.  So here goes my Chrissymouse carol (taken from da book Catmas Carols by Laurie Loughlin).  ("Away in a Manger").

Awake in a Cat Bed

Awake in a cat bed,
She can't go to sleep.
She's thinking of cat toys
That she'd like to keep.
She's seen them in catalogs
And on TV,
And she's left her Christmas list
pinned to the tree.

A catnip-filled heart and
A long piece of string,
A large kitty condo
With everything,
Cat videotapes and
A brush for her fur,
She's hoping that Santa
Will bring these for her.

~Purrs, Angie

It's Angie's Gotcha Day!


Well, fank you FB furriends!  Mine Momma almost forgotted mine gotcha day!  And dat is so increddible since it one of da biggest and bestest events in her whole life when she found me at da shelter.
I know some of yoo know da story, but here it is again.

Mine Meowmom had been going frew some changes in her life when she mooved in wif Daddy and our hyooman sisfur.  She missed her cat from before but it just wasn't da rite timing when she ferst mooved into da new place.  Den after a while and some life changing events,  space opened up in her universe for some new furry love.  Mom started having dreams of a fluffy white kitteh.  Now she was surprised about dis cuz her cat from before was a handsome black and white, sweet as could be Tuxie (dats why she always goes squeeeee when she sees one of da tuxie cat blogging kittehs).

She became obsessed wif da thot of a furry white kitteh and started looking on da 'puter at all da kittehs in da local shelter, and petfinder.com.   She could not stop thinking bout da white kitteh.  Finally, she went to da Meriden Animal shelter wif owr Dad and who do yoo finks dey found?  Yeah, it was da big mouf Beau Beau.  He was six months old, short white haired, he was sweet, he cuddled up all sweet like in Daddies arms and Daddy fell in love wif him instantly.  But wait!  Wuzn't it Mom dat wanted a LONG haired white kitteh she was lookin for?  So, for a while she thot she had found da white kitteh Beau Beau da monster.  But Beau Beau wanted to play all day an he thot Mom wuz his Mom and he gave her dem big round eye look efurry time she left da howse.

Well, then Mom started having dat obsession again like she hadn't found what she wuz looking for.  Plus she figured Beau Beau needed someone to play wif besides her.  So she got back on da 'puter again and looked and looked and den thot she would jus go back to da Meriden shelter again to see who wuz dare (cuz dey haf LOTS of kitties there).

So she duzn't efun wait for Dad to go wif her dis time, she goes and does what ofur people haf said to do, she walked into da big kitteh room and stood in da middle and jus looked around and waited.  She looked and looked and den all of a sudden she felt some paws on her legs and she look down and dare I wuz wif mine paw stretched up to get her to pick me up.  She saw all dat white fur just like she had had been dreaming about.  She picked me up and I schootched up and wrapped mine arms around her and started purring and would not let go.  Mom almost started crying right there on da spot.
She had to let me go but she knew I was da one.

Da next day Dad came back wif Mom to get me and some ofur lady wuz dare trying to take me but Dad knew Mom wanted me and he ranned owt to da front office and grabbed da PTU (prizzoner transpurt unit).  Dat day tho it wuz a (Princess Transport Unit) :-).   He got da paperwerk all done and we were owt of dare lickity split.  It's like da Grinch who Stole Christmas story.  Moms heart swelled a Hundred Times dat day.  And, I am forever grateful for mine forever home and so is mine Mom.

Thanks for all your Gotcha Day wishes and reading mine story.
Oh and Yes, mine official name is Angelica but it just turned into Angie.  I still gets called Angelica by Daddy and sometimes by Mommy when she is yellin at me to come inside.  Dad sings mine name to me as "Angeleeka".  Yoo know dat when yoo calls someone all different names it makes dem a little crazy? :-)

Purrs and loves,
Angie

Florida Pics on Friday

Ok our human finally got around to getting some of dare Florryda baycashun picshures togefur.
Ferst, here is a view from dare room on Clearwater Beach, FL.  Dis bridge goes to Sand Key.  One day dey took a trip ofur dare to do some shopping and look at more of da pretty water and see a Veteran's Day boat parade.



Dis is a view from dare room.  It looks like dey were in jail!  We bet if we went wif dem we would haf been put behind deze bars for da whole week.  


 Here is da view at Sunrise looking out towards more of Clearwater Beach.

Here are da birdies we wuz telling yoo about.  Man dey am some big birdies and dey eats fish rite owt of da water!

 One day down past Madeira Beach was a boat parade for Veterans Day.  Dis boat wuz all decorated in flags and wuz probably da prettiest one.


Here is anofur one of doze Pelican birdies comin in for a landin after eatin anofur fishie.  Da birdie wuz watchin da parade too.


 Now we haf some funny picshures of Wally da Red Sox troll dat goes on baycayshun wif da beans efurrywhere.  Wally gets to see lots of stuff.  He wuz loving da beautiful white powdery sand on Clearwater Beach and wuz drinkin a margarita.
 It took him a while but Wally did a good job tossing back most of it.

After drinkin' dat margarita Wally decided to take a nap and get some sun.




Later dat night da beans went out to Columbia Restaurant on Sand Key and had one of best meals dey efur had. Dis dish was roast pork, Boliche, Empanada de Picadillo, platanos, yuca and black beans and rice - probably owr Mom's favrit food in da werld.  She said da Boliche was melt in your mouth, most flavorable, hands down best she has efur eaten.  She wants to fly back to Florryda just to haf dat food again.  We finks we'll stick to stinky goodness owt of a can or some raw chick-hen fank yoo very much.


But da bestest part of da vacation of all for owr Mom bean wuz getting to see her fambly finally after 30 years!  Owr Dad also got to finally meet da in-laws and now he has a new Dad and Mom and three, count dem wif me... three new brofurs-in-law!  And one brofur has a beautiful wife and two daughters and Mike da speshul guy who is like brofur number four.   So we gots lots of new fambly to put owr furs all ofur when we gets a howse in Florryda one day.

Life is good!
Loves and Purrs,
Beau Beau an Angie

Wordless Wednesday

Ok so it's not wordless Wednesday, it's more of a wordy Wednesday.  Can yoo see mine toofie marks now dat I has no upper teefs?  Da v.e.t. does not tell yoo dat when dey take owt yur upper teefs dat yur bottom teefs will sit on da owtside of yur mouf lots of times.  Mom is still not sure dat I reely needed doze teefs taken owt to begin wif.
Now I hafs some problems wif a back molar toof so I guess a bisit to da v.e.t. will be coming up furry soon.  Well at least I get to drive da metal monster again and looks owt da window at what is going on.
Wait - what duz Mommy mean when she says she will let yoo know so yoo can stay off da road when I am driving?

Easy Like Sunday after the Snowtober Storm in Connecticut

 Snowtober in Connecticat.  Ferst owr yard looked like dis.  I wuz jus watchin' da leaves fall from mine perch.  Angie wuz hangin' around on da deck da ofur day in da picture below dat.

Owr back yard.

Angie on da side deck.

Back yard after da snow started.

 I had lots of fun watchin bigggggg snow flakes come down along wif da leaves.

Here is da back yard dis morning after lots of branches came down overnight.  

A big tree branch fell off of da neighbor's rotting tree an hit da howse.  Dis is a winder where we sits an watches his birdies fly in and owt of da rotten tree holes.  We all heard da tree hit da howse around midnight.  Angie was sleepin right near dat winder all day.  We am thankful to God dat da tree did not go frew da winder.

 Dis is owr Magnolia tree in da front yard.  Not a happy Magnolia.  She looks a little better alreddy dis afternoon after da snows melted off.

 Here is some more branches dat snapped off.  Da Maple trees all were touching da ground.  Branches are all ofur da place.  We can't go owtside today cuz stuff keeps falling off da trees.  It sure is purrty today though!

So today we am taking it Easy Like Sunday Morning!

Till we meet again Miss Cathy


One of our most beloved Cat Blogosphere bloggers and one of the first, if not the first blogger we ever met was Mary Catherine Davis.  She wrote the blog for Beau, the Gentlemen Cat.   Miss Cathy has crossed over the people bridge.  Our hearts are aching, the tears are pouring, and we are rethinking how we deal with people while they are here on this blessed Earth.  Our deepest sympathies go out to Cathy's family and to all who knew and loved her. We'll never forget all the wonderful stories she wrote about Beau, the emails she wrote  to jump in and tell us about something that was going on in the cat blogosphere or to help spread the word about someone who needed help. We'll never forget her and the first Catolympics event! We thought it was the most fun we'd had in a long time.  She brought the cat blogosphere alive for us and helped to get us involved and heal our Mom's heart when she most needed it.   A beautiful soul has passed over.  We love you Miss Cathy and will miss you always.  May we meet over the bridge again some day.  As she always signed her emails "Blessings", and we say it to her as well.  Blessings to you my friend.  We love you.

Thank you to Ann at Zoolatry  for the beautiful graphic for Cathy and Beau.

Fun Friday Chasing Birdies


HOLY COD!  ANGIE CAUGHTED A BIRDIE AN BROT IT IN DA HOWSE (coz owr human left da door open a little...).

Ferst owr Meowmie tried to shoo Angie owtside so da birdie would not get loose.  But guess wot?  Angie wuz haffing none of dat, she tried to hide unner da table to play wif da birdie.  But, wif Mommie pullin on her an trying to get her owtside Angie lost her grip and da birdie gotted loose!  Angie tryed to catch it again, den she came to get me.  I came runnin in (yes I was owtside...) an tried to help.  Ferst, I sniffed Angie's mouf to get da scent.  Den I jumped up on my scratchin pole.  We haf reely high ceilings so I tried to get as close as possible as yoo can see in da picture.  Daddy bean wuz dare wif a pole to try to push da birdie owt da door but da little birdie flew to da upstairs.  I ranned as fast as I could an I CAUGHTED IT!  I caught da birdie too!  But mommie wuz movin reely fast right behind me an she took it right owt of my mouf!  Dis all happened in da lik of an eye.  Next fing yoo know da birdie wuz back owtside.  Mommie let it go and da birdie, minus a few puffy little fevvers, wuz able to fly away.

In case yoo wanted to know, it was a female house Sparrow.  Dey live unner owr roof an haf nests dare so we know we will see dat birdie again.
