Frootbat Friday

Pierro:
Guess what dear friends?
Please do not be crestfallen
Please do not turn on the waterworks and howl
Please do not go home sad and dejected.

Miles has a tummy ache and he is not feeling so good, so...
everycat and bean has to wait a week.
This is a disappointment but
sunny days are ahead and now we have another exciting week to anticipate
our new orange kitten.
We do not want Miles to come to our house and be a bit sickish and also not have his mommie or brothers or Missie CurlieSwirlie Teri. That would be three scary things and those are big things to a tiny orange kitten.
Just thinking about it makes me feel like crying.

In the meantime, I will continue to work on my mancat big brother skills and
(mom says you have to click to biggify this one)

test out all of the napping areas.



I will check the toys and I can even show you some pictures next week of Miles' room!
How about that? I could not do that if Miles was here!

I could not barge into his little kitten nursery and frighten him with my huge pounding paws.
--so now we have another week to prepare.

I am a mancat. I can deal with this.
Alas, Blizzie's surgery is STILL on for Thursday the 20th at 11:00am sharp meow meow
BonkBonkBonks to all of my greatest furriends
Happy Friday!

Every disappointment
gives you opportunity

to make another appointment.

Pierro:
here is a sweet picture of Caesar and Princess when mommy just brought them home in 1991. She put them in the downstairs bathroom.
they were only 10 weeks old ~

They lived in there for a couple of days and they got to come out and explore when mom was around to watch them.
This was a nice downstairs bathroom. It had a window that looked out on the backyard where all of the squirrels and birdies played.

Miles is going to be in my old room!
It has two nice windows and a lot of room to romp and play.
The sun shines in there and the birds are in the trees, he will see all of those birdies in the woods.
Mom put a bunch of comforters in there- a huge snuggly pile of them, and a people bed too.
We are thinking that perhaps Miles will get scared and lonely at night, especially the first few nights, so Blizzie or mommy can sleep in there with him.
I know during the day, I will be sitting outside of his room, checking on him... perhaps we can push some toys back and forth under the door!! That is a good bonding game.

I hope you have a bonkie Wednesday.

There is a lot happening over here and I have to help with everything!

I have to tell you that I am very sorry that mom is not helping me visit blogs.
She has been so busy with preparing the house for Miles, and and and Blizzie is home and she has so much stuff, mom is trying to get stuff washed and putting stuffs away and oh yes guess what? Blizzie is having surgery next Thursday! she is having surgery on her left foot and then she will not be able to walk for three weeks!!
So I will have to help mom. I can wear a tiny nurse hat and we will take care of Blizzie.

bonkbonkbonkbonk to all of you for a super sunny funeroofun Wednesday

God puts us all
in each others lives
to impact one another in some way.

Look for God in others.

Mancat Monday

Pierro:
Happy Mancat Monday
Happy Day Happy Day

in 6 days my brother Miles will be here with me.
Missie Curlie Swirlie Teri is coming to my house this Saturday to bring my little brother
I am really afraid of people I never met and strange voices
but Blizzie will be here and momm and dad, so I think it will be okay.

I am excited about having my very own buddy.
Miles and I will be partners-in-silliness ~ less shooting, more romping!
I can't wait to show him all of my special places with cool stuff to step on and sniff.

Bonkie bonks for a fun and sunny Monday

Frootbat Friday


Pierro:
everything is great here at home.
I have my dad, I have my mom and I have my sunny patch in my own room.
today is a good day to have a nap.

Here we had hot weather all week and mom put the cold blowing machine on.
brrrrrrr it was chilly

This week-end is going to be much nicer.
I hope your Friday is bonkful and your week-end is paw tapping fun!

Happy Mommy Day to all of the mommies!

God could not be everywhere
and therefore he made mothers.

they will remember with gratitude
how we took them along
on all our picnics.

Pierro:
This wayback Wednesday has nothing to do with Caesar and Princess, meow!
I found this old picture of Blizzie when she was in 11th grade, back in the olden days of 2005. I was not even alive back then!!
The funny thing about this picture is that in high school, Blizzie played the piano in the
snazzy jazzy Jazz Ensemble. She did not even play anything in marching band. ever.

The marching band went to Texas to play in the CottonBowl halftime show and she went on that trip and played this instrument. It was really heavy, and Blizzie is really tiny

She had to learn how to march (heel-toe-heel-toe) and play this heavy instrument about two weeks before the trip.

haha funny.
she had a good time though and she got to wear this cool outfit and that snazzy hat with the huge feather too!

·····I want that feather!
I am happy. Blizzie is moving back home this Sunday.
This was the hardest college semester for her, she had an internship with the state department every day, and in the evening, she had classes until 8:00.
Oh my gosh, no naps!
Then she had to go to her apartment and write long papers - really long papers.
The end is in sight.
Come home and snuggle with me Blizzie
In other news:
****Today is the day my daddy comes home and I am excited to smell his stuff.

••••also, today is the day my tiny little orange brother, and his 4 brothers get their hoo-ha's snipped ouch! I am purring for all of them.
Missie CurlieSwirlieTeri took this picture, awwww 5 cutie boys.

Poor little guys. They will have owie butts.

I hope you have bonkful Wednesday

When they discover the center of the universe,
a lot of people will be disappointed
they
are not it!

Mancat Monday

Pierro:
Hey furriends. How was your week-end? was it a good one?
Well, here it was just me and mom

yeah, she was picking me up and kissing me a LOT...

moooommm.
anyway, daddy went on a road trip to the U.P. of Michigan (Marquette) to see his dad and his big sister and his big brother too!
So, I have to be the mancat around the house.
I helped mom with many projects. I kept her busy the whole time all day this week-end.
She could not have done all those things with out my help and encouragement!
At night she needed me to cuddle with her.
I think she was afraid of robbers and bad guys running around the outside of the house.
So I let her pet me a lot. -yes, and the kissing.

Okay, so, we did some kitten proofing.
see, this is a very dangerous situation in the laundry room

A kitten, MY kitten Miles! could fall down here and get afraid and maybe hurt his paw.
I helped mom make a good shelf behind the machines


I helped her look in dad's box of things to get the right silver twirly things



See, I made a great shelf with mom.
mom thinks it looks like she has way too many bottles here, but really one bottle is almost empty and one is Lizzie's from college that she can't use because mom's machine different.

Now Miles can go and investigate behind the machines - from the floor level,
that is okay, it is safe, but he will not fall from above.
Mom thinks that was a fantastic idea, I thought of that!

I know, I used to be a canmat-in-braining... remember?
That is what Miles will be. He will be tiny and I will help him.

I am so excited!!!!
eh-hem.
So I am going to help mom even more this week. Daddy will be back on Wednesday.
Today she is bringing another huge bag of my poops to the vetlady, so they can play with them, check them for bad stuff or something. Vetpeople need to find better hobbies...

Bonkbonk Mancat Monday!!!

Hey kitties Happy Wednesday
I like how my good friend in Nova Scotia, Mickey has close-ups on Fridays,
so here are my wayback close-ups today.
Prinnie- Princess had a cute pink nose and a nice white muzzle
and a few whisker pricks


and Caesar-

now reeeeally close up of Caesar

Caesar did not have any whiskers, not even a few crinkly cornish rex whiskers... because Princess liked to groom Caesar and she always chewed off his whiskers.
Mom says Caesar's whiskers finally just stopped growing :D

and here is my close up
I actually have some pretty nice whiskers...

and here is Miles' close up muzzzle
He has a mighty fine collection of whiskers too
and a very cute pink nose!

YAY!! It is almost May and then soon it will be time for my brofurr Miles to come and live with me. I am excited and mommy and daddy are "kitten proofing" so I think they are excited too.

I hope all of you have a bonkbonk Wednesday!

Mancat Monday


Pierro:
This Mancat Monday is all about being kind of miffed at mom for not helping me visit blogs all week-end and not even last Friday!!
I am going to snuggle in Blizzie's room under the lovely red beach towel she got in France last summer.

Mancats can get annoyed, but we keep a cool head about it.
I hope you have a fun day today, kitties.
Don't hesitate to dig your paws in and demand what you deserve -
but maintain a calm approach.

A positive attitude
may not solve all your problems,

but it will annoy enough people
to make it worth the effort.

Pierro:
This is a picture of Princess' littermate, Caesar.
I never knew him, but he was mom's favorite helper.
He was always meowing and purring.


Now I am mom's helper!

I help her find dad's clothes that need to be washed

I monitor the machines in the laundry room

and I help her do some sewing

I love helping mom

Frootbat Friday


Pierro:
Hi kitties HAPPY FROOTBAT FRIDAY
because I have giardia, mom has to clean the whole house. It is obvious the only way I got giardia is that when I had it as a kitten, the treatment I had two years ago did not take all of the cysts out of my tummy pipes, so it just laid there dormant, and then it decided to hold a surprise party, and that is why I have it again.
Mom says this time she is going to get rid of it forever!

mom is driving me crazy. She is washing everything in the house, she is cleaning the carpets, the floors, MY STUFF and ME!!. This house smells like a hospital.

I smell like a hospital!

Look- she took my litter boxes away.

She soaked them in bleach for hours and now they are so clean they do not smell like they are mine anymore. She won't let me use my trusty litterboxes.

Mom gave me these ridiculous boxes, much too tiny for a mancat like me.
I really dislike using these teeny-tiny boxes...


I am sorry I have not been commenting on all of your blogs. I feel bad about that.
Mom has been too busy to help me with the compooter (which also smells like a hospital). Yesterday I gave her a break and said she could go skating for two hours, then she came home and she had video chat with gramma and grampa in Maryland.
It was really great. I got some peace and quiet for a few hours

Then she was back to the craziness and cleaning.

I am still taking my icky medicines.

See mom keeps them in the fridge, and always has a clean syringe plugged in ready to go.
Sheeeesh she is like a machine.

You know what?
Yesterday was the
19th celebration of Caesar and Princess's birthday!


Amazing huh? They had long happy lives
and mom says the memories are golden!

I hope all of you have a bonkful bonklie Friday
