Mancat Monday - Mighty Mouse Hunter

For all you sqeuamish humans out dare please look the other way so the picture of mine fresh hunt does not bodder you.  Since dis is Mancat Monday it seems dat dis is the purrfect post for the day. This is da mousie I have been hunting all week.  One day I was waitin' and waitin' for the food Daddy to give me more food cuz my food plate wuz empty.  I kept lookin' at the plate den lookin' at the lady, den lookin at the food Man.  Nuffin.  So when for the squillionish time I went owtsided I finally just went and caught mine own meal.  So the moral of da story is when you finally give up lookin' for something you want really bad then you get what you wanted all along.

What do yoo fink?  Did yoo do a good job dis  year and xpeck a gift from Santy Paws?

I know who won't get any gift from Santy Paws and dats Mommie.  She forgotted Angie's Gotcha Day.  And she wuz late for mine Gotcha day too.  Dat means we shud get xtra gifts rite?

We cannot believe dat da end of da Summer is almost here.  I will be hanging out enjoyin' da sun as long as I can.  I haf a feeling dat we felines need our vitamin D as much as humans do to keep us healthy.  Enjoy da rest of da Summer for all us on dis side of da planet.

Farewell Skeezix

We're not actually going pink today in honor of Skeezix because our background is already pink!  So, instead of waiting for Mancat Monday for this photo we decided to put this one up today.  It's more of a tribute to that special bond between human and feline.  Beau Beau will do anything to get in front of us to get attention and to show us his love and get some love from us.

I'm sure all of us in the cat blogosphere felt that special love whenever we read about Skeezix and his pleasure of licking Mr. Tasty Face's face.  It's something we will never forget and will miss hearing about.   We will miss the stories from Skeezix - the rides, the face "liks", the vishus deer reports, his loves and stories of his "urjes".   We will miss the fashionista photos of Skeezix too.  Well, heck, we're just gonna miss everything about him.

Farewell Skeezix. We'll miss you little dude.

Love, Beau Beau and Angie

Beau beau's Spring Fling

I wuz owtside bein a good boy, jus chillin' on da deck.  Daddy went inside for one minute and den I went for a little spring stroll.  Da scent of da lady kittehs lured me into da way backyard way past where I'm supposed to go. 

I was takin my time sniffing around even when I heard dem screaming callin' my name.  Daddy was ready to cry snots an stuff.  After feverish purraying by Mommy, and no lady kittehs in sight I decided to swagger home.  I made sure I screamed loud to Mommy when I saw her in da yard.  Daddy was still walking in da other humans yards but even he heard me when I came back.  An you know what?  I got put in da howse an now I finks I am grrroundeded.

Sigh.  We'll see how long dat lasts!

Merry Christmas to all from Beau Beau and Angie.  

Somehow, not only for Christmas, But all the long year through, the joy that you give to others, is the joy that comes back to you. And the more you spend in blessing, the poor and lonely and sad, the more of your heart's possessing, returns to you glad.

Fireplace Glow with Angie

This is the time of year when we start having fires in the fireplace on the weekends.  While searching for the Photo Hunt Fall photo I found this pretty picture of Angie from last Christmas.  I was messing around with the camera and the lights off the tree made those little football shaped lights above her head. 

As I was thinking about this picture of Angie, we had an interesting discovery about our fireplace. We happened to be burning a fire in it the whole weekend party for ambiance and partly just to take the chill off.  Then Sunday we were cleaning out the ashes when we noticed that one brick was still pretty hot and it still smelled like smoke.  After studying the brick for a while we realized it could be taken out.  Lo and behold there was an ash box in the bottom of the fireplace loaded with ashes and old pieces of burning wood!  We never knew it was there.  The door to clean it out is in back of it in the furnace room.  The previous owners had obviously been using it regularly since it's so full and they had not cleaned it out.  Now that we know about it we can relax and have a nice fire again next weekend.  Hoping to get some more cute pictures of Beau Beau and Angie.

Photo Hunt - Fall

A furry strange fing happened dis Fall in Connecticat.  Instead of leaves falling and me getting to watch dem all day, snow fell instead!  Most of da leaves hadn't even started to fall.  Yoo can see lots of green leaves still left on da tree.  It wasn't as bad as last year cuz dat storm snapped all da weak branches off then.  Dare are still some leaves left on da trees here so I gets to watch dem and da fat squirrels!  

Update:  We're getting back into the swing of fings and furgot to put da photo hunt link.

We're baaaaaack!

Heh heh I begged long enuf to get da lady to open da 'puter an help me blog again!  It's been a long time since we been here so we wanted to show yoo dat we am still here and we looks just about da same.  We gets on Facebook sometimes but try not to go dare too much cuz da lady gets kind of obsessed wif fings like dat so we keep her paws tied up so she can't go on as much as she wants to.  Reely, we sit on her paws and stare at her reel scary like.  Hah!

The camera has not been owt too much dis year but when it does da lady likes to see how far she can get dat fing up my nose it seems.

And here's a good one of Angie just to show you she's still around too.   She loves to sit owtside on da deck on a little chair da lady found for her.  Efur since da v.e.t. stole her top teef she has marks on her face where da bottom teef come up over her top lip.  Makes her look kinda cute don't you think?

So hi to efurry one and hopes to see yoo around again.  We want to blog once a week for fun!  We finks dat would be do-able.   See you around!

Purrs,

Beau Beau and Angie

Friday in July Update

Hey Lady!  Yoo finks yoo could let me inside to get some more foods?  Geez, what's a mancat to do?

Yeah, we know we have been bad about blogging for a while now.  Seems like it's a lot easier sometimes to just post on Facebook.  Lots of things happening in the innernets so we've been trying to learn lots of new things, trying new foods, staying healthy (yeah, rite Mommy haf yoo heard my sniffles in the last few days...) and generally just trying to have fun and enjoy this wonderful awesome  warm summer!  Yay!  Well, maybe that's partly why Angie and Beau Beau each got a upper respiratory infection.  Angie's sneezing and general symptoms were pretty mild.  She slept just a little more and wanted to go outside just as much.  A week or so after her symptoms went away, then Beau Beau got the sneezies.  It seemed to affect him much more (well, hate to generalize but he is a MAN cat...) and he sneezed a LOT more and slept a lot more but I think he's going to be fine.  I believe because they are so healthy to begin with that however they caught this virus that they are able to fight it off in just a few days.  Beau Beau is sleeping again early this evening but after a few hours of running around today.  I gave him a small dose of vitamin c this morning and with his evening meal so we'll see if that brings him back to normal.  We're having a party tomorrow so either he's really going to get a workout or he'll just want to hang out in our bedroom.  Haven't heard him sneezing in the last couple of hours so that's a good sign!

Did I just hear the frigemator open?

Parker P. Miller "Paaahkar", passed gently to the Rainbow bridge.

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
