meme Monday

Caesar: uh oh. we have a bazzilion meme's to do!!
Princess: Well, more like 5. So, let's get two out of the way today!

Caesar:
5 things that changed our lives

1. Being born. we are litter mates and we are happy to be here!
2. mommie finding us by an ad in the newspaper and bringing us home
3. having two wonderful sweet and smart bean sisters has made us smart too
4. living in a gigantic house where we can hide anywhere and not respond when called so the mom bean thinks we might be laying somewhere not breathing hahahahaha
5. subq flooids. They make us feel happy and peppy

Dragonheart chose us for this meme:
Ten things that we hate:
1. Caesar: I hate loud clinking silverware: when mom puts the clean eating tools away. OW that hurts my ears stoppit mommie. don't do that!
2. Prinnie: I hate being picked up and snuggled when I have not given permission to be picked up and snuggled. put me down!!!
3. Caesar: I hate having a hard poop stuck in my butt :::blushes::: it is completely embarrassing and mommie follows me from litter box to litter box to encourage me. Now I have to take gloppy medicine every day...
4. Prinnie: ...I hate being locked in our room at night because Caesar is a pest and will not let mommie and daddie sleep.
5. Caesar: yeah, I hate that... no. yes!
I mean, I hate the part about being in the room at night.
6. Prinnie: I also hate Caesar's loud and persistent crying and sobbing when we are locked in the room at night. Like that is really going to help....
7. Caesar: I hate that I cannot jump down 14 feet from the upstairs like I used to, and it is getting increasingly difficult to get up into some high places.
This is me when I was about 5 years old (1996), in our former house at Merruhlind.
I used to jump to the table and then to the top of the door.

8. Prinnie: Okay... well, I HATE that Blizzie is going back to kollig. I really hate that!!!!
9. Caesar: well, I hate being put in that bloo prison box and shoved into the scary driving machine and going to the vet. meoowww I hate that!
10. Prinnie: I hate that we do not get to eat Fancy Feast anymore. Now we have to eat Hills K/d. It is just okay, but .... boring and not very smelly, rather dry, has white things in it that does not look like tiger foods, and did I say boring?

Today is an easy day. Our Daddie left this morning early. He is driving on a long trip to Mushiegan, no, Mish-Mashiegan... to see his daddie (the old grammpa that snores reeeelly loud) in the YooPee (Marquette). He will be gone all week, so it will just be us and Blizzie and mommie. Yay. We hope daddie has a safe trip and does not get any speeding tickits.

Prinnie: about the stresssss this week... that will happen on Friday. Mommie has to get up really early and get some x-rays and a sonogram done for her doctor that takes care of her bloods that has the non-hodgkins lymphomas floating around in her bloods. This makes mommie all shaky and worried. Blizzie will go with her on Friday. She has to go really early and not have any breakfasts, or any koffee, not even a cookie, so she will be very sad and krabby and afraid and nervous.
Mommie, you need to stop thinking about this now!
Mommie hates diseases. She is a nurse and knows too much. Mommie stop knowing and thinking!!!

Caesar: ::::whimpers:::: Blizzie goes back to kollig in three weeks!
This is terrible terrible terrible. We need to lock Blizzie in her room!

Prinnie:
We hope everycat has the very best day ever!
when you feel the urge to purr, send some over to our place. We could collect some purrs and give them to mommie in large doses every day.
mommie, stoppit, stop werrying

We might be blogging sporadically this week. We will try to visit our wonderful friends every day even if we do not blogggg on a particular day.

love purrrs and headbutts

Whatever you are
be a good one.

~Abraham Lincoln

Flowers Friday and ME... or ME and Flowers Friday

Princess:
Happy Happy Friday.
What a week!

This is what I am going to do all week-end.

Okay okay, I will not send my picture to that bad man (see post below).... all of you are correct
the $850,000 is probably Monopoly money,

and if he finds out my address... he might steal my toys!

Mommie says next week is going to be stressful too.
We will tell you all about that later.

we might need some extra purrrrs for next week...

Regardless, we better rest up.

Here are some colorful garden delights for your viewing pleasure.

Yellow. A happy color

A balanced diet is a cookie in each hand!

Caesar has been a blog hog

and that has made me a little bit krabby.
Do I look a little krabby here? Well, I look concerned, and not pleased. Not pleased at all.

So, today is my day to hog, I mean... tell you some things.

First of all.
We have been working ferociously on the the 5 things meme, because it looks interesting.
Second: the Not My Species Friend:.... We want to do that but we are not sure who to pick.
We do not have any critters around here that we know about. We do have a horsie, but he is not breathing. His name is Buster. Should I tell you about him? He is a good friend that likes to kiss me.

Third:
I received a very very important email yesterday afternoonie:
AttentionPrincess, I have Paid for the delivery fee for your Cheque Draft.but the manager of Financial Trust Bank Plc Benin told me that before the check will get to you that it will expire.So i told him to cash $850,000.00 all the necessary arrangement of delivering the $850,000.00 in cash was made with SHALOM COURIER COMPANY DIRECTOR.

SECRETARY JAMES WILLIS.

What exactly does this mean?

$850,000 seems like A LOT of green papers, A LOT OF GREEN PAPERS!!! I could do some serious shopping with that and have plenty left over to give away.
Should I send him my picture?

And absolutely Fourth: yesterday mommie was giving me my subq flooids but she did something stupid. ((She read that this could happen but she is an old nurse so she did not think she could possibly DO such a dopey thing.... )) when she stuck the needle in.... the flooids were going in very fast. . . . She accidentally pushed the needle a bit too far through... when she saw my bloo blankie in my kitty cup getting soppy, she got very very sad and stopped and let me eat my meatbabyfoodglop... and then she stabbed me again and turned me into a camel with a water hump. I did not get mad. Poor mommie, she had a "stoopid attack".
She felt very bad about it but Blizzie was loving me and I did not mind.

I hope every cat has a wondermous and fabbie day!
Puuurrrrrrs, Princess

Here is a little special something I found in one of Blizzie's jazz books!

Values:
The greatest handicap -- fear
The best day -- today
Easiest thing to do -- find fault
Most useless asset -- pride
The greatest mistake -- giving up
The greatest stumbling block -- egotism
Greatest comfort -- work well done
The most disagreeable person -- the complainer
Worst bankruptcy -- loss of enthusiasm
Best teacher -- one who makes you learn
Greatest need -- common sense
Meanest feeling -- regret for another’s success
Best gift -- forgiveness
Greatest knowledge -- God
Greatest thing in the world -- Love

and guess what?
You are loved by me!

Wordless Wednesday and of course... a kwote

-- you're PERFECTIN that way

Tuxie Toozday with gramma and grampa

Caesar:
Happy Tuxie (that's ME) Toozday every cat!

here is a photo I wanted to share with you last week... but... I forgot.
Mommie and I had video-chat with grandma and grampa last week.
Blizzie and daddie were visiting a college in PA.
Gramma is clapping because she is happy to see me
if you click to biggify you can see me really good in the upper right corner!

Now... it is important to point out here, if you are looking closely, you will see that my gramma was borned with only a left hand. God decided that she did not need a right hand, her arm ends at her wrist. (God might have given her right hand to someone else that has a large butt and thunder thighs [everyone gets something, right?])
My gramma is quite amazing :-) In the oldish days she was at one time, by some people, considered "handicapped" but my gramma did not want to be treated like she could not do things on her own, so she was persistant and a little stubborn. ("no no, nothin' doin'" as she would say)
She raised 4 children (including my mommie, who was kid#3), she sewed many of their clothes when they were little, even some spring coats that all matched, she makes Belgian lace (mommie has some she can show you one day) she embroiders beautiful pictures, she is a gourmet cook, she plays the piano (quite well) she can drive and she goes to exercise class, and she volunteers for the Red Cross Blood Drives, Oh I almost forgot, she sings in two choirs.

My mombean is not this peppy. . . .

My grampa is amazing too. I can tell you about him some day... for instance, how he is 83 and he still plays tennis (geezer tennis) and has won a whole bunch of Geezer Olympics Medals in tennis, and how he got snapped up by the Nazi's in WW2 and forced to get on a train and work far away from his home for almost a year, until the end of the war. Then he walked all the way back home to his mommie and dad and brother and sister in Rotterdam, Netherlands from Poland.

So Anyway, I like to make an appearance on videochat night to make my grandbeans happy. After a while, I say goodnight and go upstairs and howl my head off. They make me happy.

Difficult things take a long time,
impossible things a little longer.

Mancat Monday

yes... even a mancat can rest on a flowery bed!

Caesar:
Monday Greetings every cat!
I hope you have a superbial, wondermous day!

Yesterday is history.
Tomorrow is a mystery.
And today? Today is a gift.
That's why we call it the present.

Frooty and flower FRIDAY

Caesar:
This is a darkie picture of me but I like laying on my bed like this in the morning
after I have had my breakfast. See how the sun shines on the legs. oooh I love that.

Yay, week-end week-end
Yippie skippie week-end

Here are some nice pretty flowers from mommie's gardens:

Tithonia and zinnias

impatiens, zinnies and those orange flowers, oh yeah, Nasturtiums

nasturtiums

MORE Nasturtiums

some purple flowers

Hot Shot roses


It's frustrating when you know all the answers,
but nobody bothers
to ask you the questions.

happy Thursday

Prinnie:
We hope you have had a delightful week so far.
The beans have been very busy here... going here and there, doing this and that.

Here are two kitties that mommie took care of last week.
They live in the house across the street.
This guy's name is Muffin and he is a big muffin.

he weighs 20 pounds, but he is very lovey dovey and has a gigantically loud purr

Sometimes I am pretty sure I can hear Muffin purring all the way over at my house.

then, the other kittie's name is Squeekie. This kitty is a scaredy... but mommie was gentle with her and soon she came out and she was loving mommie just a little

Mommie loves taking care of kitties.
I wish I could have come over and helped. oh well....

Happy Happy Thursday from Caesar and me!

That which is striking and beautiful
is not always good,
but that which is good
is always beautiful.

mancat Monday

Caesar:
Prinnie and I woke up very loud and perky this morning.
We are ready to have a happy snappy day!


Mom and Blizzie have lots to do.
YES, Blizzie made it back home from her adventure. She did a lot of driving in parts of Maryland and Virginia she has never driven on her own. She made it home all by herself (mommie was worried), she did it. wowwwww


We are planning on having a really good day.
We hope your day is happy too

OH! remember... we might not be blogging every day for a about A MONTH!
Things are crazy busy here...
We will try to visit around even on days that we do not blog.
We love you kitty friends.

When you look at your life,
the greatest happinesses
are family happinesses.

Proverbs meme

Princess:
We absolutely love the Proverbs meme!

This is sooo much fun!
Dragonheart tagged us, and so did LittleloudLucyfurr

They had fantastical proverbs.
Here is Dragonheart's:
"If at first your humans don't tend to your needs, meow and meow again."


Here is LittleloudLucyfurrs's:
"BE WARY OF THE TAIL
IT MIGHT BE SWISH
OR COULD BE THRASH"

Thank you Dragonheart and Lucykins for choosing us!

A proverb is a simple and concrete saying popularly known and repeated, which expresses a truth, based on common sense or the practical experience of catkind. They are often metaphorical.

I had many many great ideas for wonderful Proverbs.
Here are a few of mine:

"Talk doesn't open cans of meatglop."

"A kitty is as old as she feels herself to be."

this is my very favorite:
"Don't put all your Temptations into one crystal bowl."

Caesar: here is my Proverb:
"Many a whap is done in jest."

We do not know who to tag... hmmmm who has not done this yet?
We might be one of the last.
There were so many superb proverbs out there.
we should make a book!!!!!!

If you are interested in participating in this really fun meme
then you ARE hereby tagged!!

meow!
TAG

We hope you have a very special and exciting Saturday.
Blizzie is coming home today. I am waiting right here for her.
And I get my flooids this afternoon. Send bravery purrs.
snuggles and purrs, me

Here is a proverb my mom likes:

The nose is for breathing~
the mouth is for eating
cakes and cookies.

here is the mom and dad that SHE inherited this cookie obsession from
click to biggify and see the gramma in the background
snarfing the cookies
look at all of those cookies on the table!!!

Frootbat Friday

Caesar:
This is me, the sleeping frootbat. sometimes I lay like this while I am getting my flooids. But I keep my eyes a bit open... to be sure I get the babyfoods after.
If you click on the picture to biggify, you will see a great picture of ME and my eyes are a bit open too!

Prinnie is upstairs waiting and waiting for Blizzie to come home from her roade trippie.
grate nooz:Yesterday Prinnie got her flooids, but guess what? she was happy while she got them, well, not ekstatic, but moderatley content. She did not struggle. Mommie and Bliz discovered a great thing. If Prinnie is in her snuggly cup bed, she feels more secure getting the flooids. One small step for Prinnie, One great step for getting flooids....or something like that.

Today is going to be a super fabbie day.
We hope you enjoy it, and have a wondermous week-end too

Blizzie's first roade tripp is today!

Princess:

Blizzie is going to werk at her silly grocery store job this morning, then... dundundun, ... gulp, I will get my subq's. Then, Blizzie is going bye-bye. She is going to the camp where her friend Katie is working as a counselor all summer. Blizzie is going to visit her. She is driving all the way to the camp place in her little car named "Cubby". This is her first big long roadtrippie all by herself. She printed out a squillon maps she got from Googlie mapps. It is only a one hour drive. She has her cell fone, and her camera. She is going to have a great adventure.

I will wait for her. She will come home some time on Saturday.
I will wait and wait and wait.

Happy Thursday to all of my friends.
Today is going to be a good day!

Like all great travelers,
I have seen more than I remember,
and remember more than I have seen.

Word~full Wednesday

Caesar:
Prinnie took her flooids yesterday. She did not scream as loud and not for so long.
But she was still really ::::steamed::: afterward.

Okay, so this is how it goes: mommie comes into our roomie upstairs (if I am up there she throws me out... well, she politely asks me to leave...) and then she shuts the door with Prinnie and Blizzie and the bowl of chicken baby foods.... oh, and the big bag hanging on the nail and all of that scaary stuff... ie: the needle.

Mommie is not squeeemish at all. She is very calm and focused (she used to be a nurse and gets what she came for every time) , first and foremost, she makes Prinnie feel like she can trust her but mommie still gets what she wants: to get the flooids in Prinnie.
So, heeheehee, Prinnie sees mommie with the bowl and she gets up and makes a dive for under the big cozy bed in our kitty room. so then mommie has to lure her out with the mighty tempting stinky smell of the chicken in the bowl yumyumyum..... :::salivates::: finally Prinnie will come out and mommie puts her on the big pillow and holds her down. Blizzie helps. That is when mommie says 1-2-3 and stabs her and that is when the screaming really starts. Mommie and Blizzie talk very soothing and sweet to her and tell her how wonderful and courageous she is.
Prinnie does not listen. She is just mad mad mad.
Mommie thinks it is better to give her flooids at home than take her to the vetlady.
she thinks that she will eventually get used to it....

Prinnie is always happy and lovey dovey after about 30 minutes!

Today is Wednesday.
We hope you have the very very best day ever!

There are two tragedies in life.
One is to lose your hearts desire.
The other is to gain it.

Facial Expression Tuesday

Princess:
Luxie asked us to share a picture of a favorite facial expression.
Here is mine.

Today I have to get subqflooids (blah). I get them every other day because the vetlady likes me better than Caesar.
Okay well, Maybe that is not really the reason.
Boy do I get miffed when mommie gives me flooids. meee-yow!

pee-ess:
mommie has not read the HP book7 either. Blizzie is reading.
She has read the last 6 books but at a very slow pace.
Sparknotes has a great synopsis of each of the stories. So does Wikipedia.
Right now she does not really have time....
Happy Tuesday to you!

"Sometimes, timing is everything."
~our daddie

Mancat Monday

Caesar:
Happy Monday.
We hope every kitty got some major lappie time in with the extensive Harry Potter reading marathon.
Did your bean like the ending?

Today is a busy day for mommie.
she might go to the rink... She has a bazillion chores and errands.
Prinnie has the day off from flooids. She still gets really krabby about it.

We hope today is your very best day ever!

Headbutts, Caesar

Genius is nothing
but a great aptitude

Froot'n Batt'n Friday

Caesar:
durrrrrrr
Guess what I like?
subQ Floooids.
seriously.
I call mommie when I am ready to get my subq's.

I love showing off in front of Prinnie too.
and I get a little bit of babyfoods, oh yummm

Prinnie got the day off yesterday, just because.
Today.... she gets flooids

bahahahahahahahaha


Today is a bizzy day. The big bean Chrystabellegirl is Moo-Ving to her own place. She is leaving the nest and and and, mommie is not crying. yet. Then again... The Chrystabelle is moo-ving only 4 miles away to a cute little apartment with her own cooking room and litterbox room and her own parking space and her own everything!

I will get mommie to take some pictures of that... this is a milestone, when the firstie born flies away... farrrrr faaaarr away...... :::flap flap flap::::

Maybe she will moooove back home next week.

Have a super grate week-end everycat!
You are loved.

Happiness is a grateful spirit,

an optimistic attitude,
and a heart full of love.

Thirsty Thursday

Princess:
I am drinking a lot!!
Yesterday mommie and Blizzie attacked me and gave me flooids, but I got to have some baby food too. So, I guess it wasn't so bad. However I did get really mad because they made me sit still. I screamed really loud to show them that they were torturing me almost like pulling my arms and legs off!!

Here is sweet little me on Blizzie's bathroom sink.
She lets me sit on a fluffy towel while she gets ready in the morning, and at night.
I know, it looks like I have lotion pumps coming out of my head... but they are not!
They are behind me, sillies.
What if I had water pumps on top of my head.... hmmmmm... the possibilities

I am feeling much better today. No, not because of the flooids, just because! harrumpfff!

I am so embarrassed that Caesar told all of you about my drippy poops.
Is nothing sacred?
and then they wonder why I am so krabbbby....
Sheeesh!

Thank you sweet kitty friends for thinking about me, and encouraging me and loving me even though I am a krabby girl.
Love, Miss Grumpy Gills... .
yes, I will keep drinking and drinking and drinking and drinking.

"Never give in,
never, never, never

great or small,
large or petty

honor and good sense."

Wordful Wednesday

Caesar:
The vetlady says Prinnie has to get subq fluids... some how. She just needs to bite the bullet (not the vetlady, Prinnie!) and do it. I can tell you... the subq's are making me feel like a 12 year old!

Prin got germ killer pills for her tummy yesterday. She had this ewie clear bloody kind of poop coming out of her butt and mommie took a sample of it to the vetlady. The vetlady said Prinnie's kidneys are working so hard they can make her tummy sick and irritated. The nice multipierced vethelpergirl gave Prinnie a whole lot of subq at the office, so Prinnie's little arms looked very poofy when she got home. heehee.

So anyway... sometime mommie is going to try to get some flooids into Prinnie. The vetlady said if Prinnie is too krabby about it, that they would do it in the office.

Okay so I am all done talking now.
have a fun day. It is drabb and dreary here, maybe we are going to get some water drops from the sky. I will lay under daddie's desk lampie and help him with his werk.

Have a terrifical Wednesday

It is better to look ahead and prepare
than to look back and regret.

~Jackie Joyner-Kersee

Guess what today is?
Dragonheart's First Birthday
Hoooo ray!




HAPPY very first BIRTHDAY
to our dear friend
DRAGONHEART!

Toesday and Prinnie has the poops

Caesar:
Here is me and my toes, and my sweet goodboy face.


Guess what?
Prinnie has to go to the vetlady today. She has had a sick tummy and some drippy poops, so mommie said she has to go to the vetlady because she is 16, and drippy poops are not good when you are 16.
Poooooor Prinnie.

I am so glad I do not have to go to the vetlady... sheeesh
I hope Prinnie is brave and does not scream herself hoarse or get jabbed or poked.
I hope she does not suffer... my poor kitttttie sister
:::::sh-shivers::::::
I am really glad it is not me....

have a very happy day everycat!
Keep your paws crossed for the Prin~Flower

MANCAT MONDAY & Dragonheart gave us a cool awardie

Caesar:
I know it. I am such a mantiger.

Just doing my daily patrols.
One sunny patch at a time...

Dragonheart honored us with this wonderful awardie

This is really... really such an honor.
We are caring bloggers!

Well, we would honor him right back but he was already given this prestigious award. Wow.

The Caring Cat Blogger Award is for cats who demonstrate caring and compassion for others. We are deeply honored. We will display this award proudly!

We can think of several kitties that deserve this award, atleast 20.

Princess and I spent the entire week-end ThinKing and thinking and THiNKING of who we should select for this awardie, and we came up with so many names. So we wrote the names of the kitties that came instantly to mind, and put those names in a "hat" and mixed them all up, and Blizzie reached inside and selected....

Skeezix is a friend to all.

Happy Monday!!
