Wednesday's Word

Door. Funny fing bout doors. We can't get frew dem so we has to stay inside lookin' out. This door we has to sit on somefin or stand up high to look out of. The ofur door we can jus lay down or sit and stare out at da peoples and birdies. Then there are little doors inside and dat's where da stinky goodness is.

Now, there's anofur kinda Door and maybe owr Whiskonsin friends will know bout it. Da beans are talking bout going to some Door place dat's like an island? Do yoo know where dat is?

So let me tell you... this mornin' Beau Beau was doin' his usual running frew da house and he ran around da corner and wuz going to do a one point jump from da corner of da kitchen right up to da chair. But guess what happened? He didn't member dat one of my special sleeping in boxes wuz right in da way and he did a twist in mid air, hit da chair and managed to sproing out of da way so he didn't fall in da box. But it still counted as a fall. It was an amazing fing. Mommy gasped and had to gib him all kinds of cuddles. He didn't look hurt an he 'anored me coz he knew he did a stoopid fing. Boys. Dey always trying to show off.

Sunny Saturday

Hi efurryone! It's a sunny day here in Connectacat. I'm just laying out gettin' some sun. Beau Beau finally got out of his stuck place. It wuz a combined effort of many cats to get him out. Abby batted her beautiful eyes at him to help to lure him out; Dragonheart and Prinnie slipped in beside him; Victor and Derby pushed from behind. He finally popped out like a cork. Eric and Flynn tried to see if dey could fit and almost got stucked too. It was a hairy (and not so hairy) experience. Hee hee.

~Angie

I can fit

Errrrggghhhhhhh. Huffff, puuufffff, squeeezzze. I knew I could fit in here. It just took a little squeezin'. Hmmm. Just let me turn around now. Ok here I go. Um, mmrrfffff, ugh. Ut oh. Um, can somecat help me pweeze?

Fun Friday

Well we don't know what's so fun about Friday 'cept that Mom gets home early. It's furry hot here today so we am trying to stay cool and not moving.

Beau Beau am in trubbul acoz he figured out how to open da big cabinet an gets owr own food. We said we wanted more treats and we meant it. Fur some reason dis didn't sit well wif da hyoomans. Da College girl wuzn't too happy when she saw da empty bag when while she wuz watchin' us when da hyoomans were away. Da mom didn't believe it until she saw Beau Beau frew da window while he wuz on da counter (anofur no-no) opening da cabinet. We culdn't help owrselfs. We could smell da food. It wuz a good smell and it wuz callin' to us, come heeeeeaarrr Beau Beau, come heeeeaaaarrrrr Angie. So Beau Beau had to just let dem treats out of da bag.
Da treats are now in a differnt place. But we am smart and it will just take a leeeetle time till we gets da lid off dat treats jar.

Finally

It's about time. Owr offishal mommy and daddy are finally home after da honey-moon. We still don't know what a honey-moon is. We can see da moon but why did they haf to go there? We am just so happy they am back . I finally got to sleep. Zzzzzzzzzz.
~Beau Beau

Demands

Hey College Girl and Nick-Beau (he's college girl's boyfurrend)! Me an Beau Beau haf demands.
1) We demand to know when da Mommy and Daddy are coming home. We finks dey am way overdue from da honey-moon.
2) What is a honey-moon anyway?
3) We want fank you for feeding us owr stinky goodness but since the rest of da fambly is not here we finks you should gibs us shrimp and lots of it before dey get back!
4) Dat wuz fun playing in da water dat leaked out of da sink all ofur da floor but maybe you could use some of it to wash out owr private baffrooms huh? Dey am getting a little stinky.
5) We finks you should open up dat bag of treats dat you were aposed to be giving us efurryday. Mom said how many a day? Maybe seventy-eleben a day? Dat sounds about right.

We could fink of lots of more fings we want but dis will do for now.

Angie, household spokesperson while da beans are away.

Purresents

Mommmmm -- I's staying in here wif dese purrensents until you open all of dem. Dat's it . I's not coming out.
Beau Beau

Fambly

It's oh-fisshal. Here am da newly formed fambly. Phew. Now maybe fings can get back to normal around here. Shure. Dey had lots of good food for da wedding. Now where is owr stinky goodness? We am hungry! Let's open up some temtayshuns to celebrate!

Tying da knot

This is da big day. Da Mommy and Daddy bean are tying da knot. You know we can't tie any knots acoz we don't haf 'poseable thumbs. I finks it means dat somehow when dey tie da knot it will bind dem togefur forever.
It really means:

"The cliche' tying the knot is centuries old. In the middle

ages, it was believed tying "the knot" would have a

positive influence on the marriage. The Nuptial Knot

has brought an old custom into the 21st century.

The two separate ends looped over into a knot

represents two becoming one. To tie means to "bind".

you are symbolically bonding and securing your marriage

and you have a precious keepsake to cherish forever."

So Angie, I will gibs you one kiss in celebration of da wedding.

Here am the beans at their party that their friends from Mom's werk gibbed dem. Dey had lots of fun.

Fun Friday

It's fun Friday and a day for balancing fings. I fink I'm doing a pretty good job of it here. I actually wuz trying for da kool look.

It am also anofur fankful day. I'm fankful dat I can efun get up here to try dis balancing act! Hee hee. Well it is my birfday dis month and I'm only two years old. I finks Mom forgotted wif all da ofur plans going on around here. We don't know what da actual day is acoz I adopted Mom and my papers only said I was six months old when she got me. So we just celebrate my Gotcha day instead. But it am still my birfday dis month. Schmaybe she'll gibs me some extra stinky goodness anyway. Mooooooommm!

~Beau Beau

Seven Random Fings About Us

Rosie, Abby, Eric&Flynn , and Bombay all tagged us fur random seven fings about us. Wow.
OK here goes.
Here are the rules:

Each player starts with seven random facts about themselves. Cats who are tagged need to write on their own blog about the seven things and the rules. You need to choose seven cats to tag and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment that they have been tagged and to read your blog!

Angie:

1. My hyooman daddy pulls up a box for me efurry day in front of da back door so I can look out onto the back deck at the birds.
2. I sleep on the hyoomans bed between their pillows most nights but not all.
   
3. Some nights I am on guard duty in the kitchen and sleep on the big chair next to the island.
4. My furs are as soft and silky as can be. Schmaybe that's because Beau Beau licks my furs. Schmaybe that's why my furs smell sometimes like Beau Beau's bref.
5. I only snuggle wif my hyoomans sometimes and I need to be held so that I can lay rest my chin on their shoulder.
6. My real name is Angelica but efurryone usually calls me Angie.
7. Once in a while, only once in a while mind you, I drop a dingleberry (giggles).

Beau Beau:

1. I nefur have dropped a dingleberry. Hurrmph.
   
2. I am trying to find some songs for da hyoomans upcoming wedding but they don't seem to want songs like Meow Shack, Meow Meow Meow, Get da Poopy started, Da Power of Grrr, When a Cat is in Heat, and ofur such cat favorites.
3. I have not touched the pink insuelashun in a while because I found something more fun to play wif. My new amewsment is da potatoes I pull out of da cabinet.
4. I know how to get my hyoomans to give me treats. I raise my paw and wave it at them. Then they slap me five and I get a treat.
5. I run around making grrrr noises. Lots.
6. It am my job to jump on the hyoomans bed and head's at 5Am until they get up and feed me and Angie. I also grrr and meow while performing my wakeup routine.
7. I chase, catch, and eat efurry little white moff dat I see flying around in da house. I am da bug patrol manajer.

Bathroom Finale

The bathroom is finally finished. It was a big projeckt but somebody had to do it. I am doing da last minute inspeckshun of da sink here. It gets the Beau Beau and Angie seal of approval. Yoo can hardly see her but Angie is in da hallway looking in at the finally finished bathroom.
Here is da new tub / hockey soccer field. Will be holding an event here sometime in the future. Mom is waiting for the proper soccer ball for us to use. No shower doors here to stop us from jumping in and out of da field. Plus mom hates to clean so she duzn't want to haf to wipe down glass doors efurryday.

Aliens in da house

Moooommmmmm! Look what I found for you in da cabinet! I found some aliens. They wuz trying to come out wif there long skinny arms. Dey were reaching out for me to free dem from da cabinet. Look! Dare is a whole fambly of dem. Can we keep em Mom? Can we?

~Beau Beau da alien potato saver.

Pee Ess. Mom says doze are not aliens. Dey am potatoes wif big eyes! Dat's what yoo get when yoo go on a lo carb diet - fings grow out of yur cabinet. Da length of da long skinny eye fings is dependent on how long yoo been on da no pototoes diet.

Freaky Friday

Yoo have to look a little to find my face. I don't efun know how I got in dis position. Fankfully it's Friday!
~Beau Beau

Wanna play?

Angie: Beau Beau, sometimes yoo are just the silliest boy around. I can see you down there.
Beau Beau: Well, come down to my place and we'll play.
Angie: I'm not stoopid yoo know. Efun I can see I can't fit in dat spot.
Beau Beau: I can push Mommy's sweater out of da way den there will be plenty of room.
Angie: Sorry. I like yoo an all but dat's a little too close for comfort for me.
Beau Beau: Awwww Angie yur no fun.

Doppleganger

Hey, who's that ofur pretty girl in the mirror? There's only supposed to be one of me around here. Quick Beau Beau look! There's some ofur girl you can chase around the house.How'd she get in here? Gasp! Who's dat ofur handsome mancat? How'd they get in here? There's not enuf stinky goodness to go around for more cats here. Wif any more cats here we need more room! Hurry up and finish owr baffroom will ya? It's letting cats who look like us in here.

Thinking Blogger

OK - Abby tagged us. Efun tho we thinks so much alla time owr head is spinning wif all the fings we think about, lots of bloggers make us think efun more. Here's 5 of dem:

1. Grr, Midnight, and Cocoa. Cocoa is what makes Angie think all da time about Cocoa! Plus we is always thinking about who is who acoz it's so hard to tell you all apart!

2. Eric & Flynn. They always make us think about the big outdoors and how much fun they are having chasing meecies and all kinds of things.

3. Victor Tabbycat. He makes me think about how much we look alike (Beau Beau and Victor) and makes owr beans wanna go to Whiskonsin. There must be some imaginary threadline dat makes dem want to go there - plus they has the Packers.

4. Cat Blogosphere. We, like Purrchance to Dream, also want to list Cat Blogoshpere acoz they are one of the first places we visit efurryday to see what is going on in cat blogging land.

5. Beau's Blog. Beau makes us think about and reminds us to be nice to efurryone. Plus he makes us think about baths, which he gets and we don't, thankfully.

Here is the rules:

1. If, and only if, you get tagged, write a post with links to 5 blogs that make you think

2. Link to this post so that people can easily find the exact origin of the meme

3. Optional: Proudly display the 'Thinking Blogger Award' with a link to the post that you wrote (here is an alternative silver version if gold doesn't fit your blog). That was that! Please, remember to tag blogs with real merits, i.e. relative content, and above all - blogs that really get you thinking!

Tuesday's Toesies

Box no twelvdy eleven

Anufur box! Dis one's a funny shape but it's still a nice place to hide. I can slither along from one end to anofur just like a snakey. Hey Mom, when the baffroom is finally done can we keep all dese boxes?

~Beau Beau


We are going pink today for Lilly Lu who has a terrible sickness and is at the vet. We are worried about her and are praying that she pulls through. It might be acoz of the terrible poison food that is still out there.

Frosty's Journey

Sad news for our cousin Frosty. He went over the rainbow bridge yesterday. We am saying many prayers for his family acoz they are going to miss him so much. He was a meezer and you know how much they talk and his house am going to be furry silent now.

His family sent this to us:

For Frosty

Today we saw our friend to Heaven.

He was here for so long and then no more.

Life took its toll and he was burdened

By a body scant and a mouth so sore.

Today we saw a kitty fly to Heaven.

From a room of tranquil peace and calm

Arms opened wide to quickly lead him,

To take him up, to bring him home.

Today we saw our pet to Heaven.

As we celebrate his life, his love,

And all he taught us,

Happy now he frolics from above.

April guest appearance - Cydney

We haf a guest appearance this month. Meet Cydney. Her hyooman's name is Dan. He's owr Grammy's beaufriend. Cyd is 14 years old. Dan makes sure that she has efurrything that she wants and she lets him and Grammy stay in her house to make shure she gets all da attenshun she needs. This am a favrit spot of hers , right in front of da wood stove on a nice blankie for her.
Underneath her blankie is a little room that she can go in and take all da naps she needs, alone and unbothered by anyone. See da little open door on the bottom right? She also has a back door to escape if she needs to. That am way cool. Plus she has two cat climbing condos. One to scratch on and one not to. Apparently, she likes to keep one as a backup for one day when the scratchy one has had its day.
This am Cyd's squirrel. He bisits on her *big deck* owtside. Her hyooman feeds him peanuts since she doesn't haf 'posable thumbs. Plus that's what hyoomans are for anyway. Dis was da squirrel's Easter dinner. Cyd just chitters away to her squirrel when he comes to bisit.

~Beau Beau

Thoughtful Thursday

This is a good day to think good thoughts and be thankful for all kinds of things like having a furever home and lots of good stinky goodness to eat and a nice place to sleep.

Plus lots of bang bang going on in our house so I gotta protect Beau Beau coz him am scared of the noises. Plus he doesn't like to be shut up in the bean's room. There seems to be some slight problems wif the baffroom so I'm giving it all positive thoughts.
