An awardie from a great friend ~ and Mancat Monday!

Caesar:
HAPPY NEW YEAR's EVE!!
We are planning on staying up allll night to ringie dingie in the NEW YEAR!!
It is going to be a Happy 2008!

This is going to be a great year meeeeowwww!

We apologise for not being around visiting much... we did have several days when we just read your bloggies but did not comment. Sorry. Mommie is still in shock that she has to help plan a wedding... and her baby is getting married. It was only yesterday that she was riding her three wheel bike down the sidewalk!

We are so honored to recieve an awardie from Ruis!!

It is the Life is Heck without Friends awardie!

We are so honored and thrilled to have this awardie.
THANK YOU Ruis!
This is what Ruis said about us:
They are very special friends, because they are soooo sweet, they are also Cornish Rex kitties like me, and Princess looks alot like my half sister Miral!

WE are just sooo very happy that we found Kattenpraat Catwalk! Our grandbeans are dutch and they came over here to the US when our mommie was little, then our granddadbean got a job with the US government and worked in Germany and Brussels and in France. This was great because our mommie got to see her auntiebeans and unclebeans and her grandbeans in Holland. She also had some special friends in Holland when she was a beanager!
Ruis is in Holland too!!

We think this is a very good award! What a true statement huh?
We love all of you friends!
Well, we would like to pass this awardie on to another very special friend that we think is a very good friend and we are always happy when we get a comment from this troop of poosies.
Sammy and Miles are very silly and lovable kitties.
They make us laugh and remind us of the funny playful things we did when we were young poos tigers!


We hope you have a very fun evening and do not let your beans drink and drive!
Or play with your nip toys too much!

Love and purrs.

Many people look forward
to the new year
for a new start
on old habits.

Happy 3rd day of Christmas

Caesar:
Christmas was very nice here.
We had a lot of fun with the papers.

Prinnie found our pressies two weeks ago so we did not have pressies in our stockings, except some chicken Temptations from Santa and two jars of Gerber baby foods that we get to nibble on when we get our flooids.

We hope all of you had a nice Christmas.

Today, our beans are going to a wedding of Chrystabelle's best friend.
They will be gone all day.

OH wowie. Big news! Our biggest girl bean (Chystabelle) and her boyfriend Jason are officially engaged.
This is a picture of them from Christmas day in the evening.
They are holding a pretty thing that gramma made for them.
If you click to biggify you can see the ring on Chrystabelle's left paw.

Mom says she feels very olde now.

We hope you have a very happy day.
You are loved by us.

Isn't it frustrating when you know all of the answers, and no one has bothered to ask any of the questions??

Mancat Monday and a very special awardie from Stormiekins

Caesar: we hope everyone had a sweeet week-end.
Here, it poured rain all day Saturday and then Sunday it was very cold and windy and sort of sunny.
Today.... I plan on getting some well needed napping.


Wait just a minute!!! Look at this wonderful awardie that Stormie made and gave to us!!!
We are soooo honored.

Stormie has been very sick with Lymphoma this past year and she fought and fought. She had to have treatments, icky ones where she had to stay in a hospital, and then medicines that made her whiskers fall out, and she would have a sick tummy!!
Presently, she is happy and doing well. We are so happy that she is here this year to celebrate Christmas with us!!! We wish her many more Christmas's with good health!
We love Stormiekins! This is what she said about us:
"they are the sweetest and most adorable cats and always leave the most adorable, caring messages for everyone. Plus they are Fighters and put up with having flooids every day."

The Extraordinary Gold Star Award was created by - Storm, The Furry Fighter - and is for Bloggers who have achieved or done something special. The award celebrates beyond what is ordinary or usual.

1) Post the explanation and rules of the award and link back to the blogger who presented you with the award and repeat the reason why you received it.

2) Pass the Award on to two other Bloggers who you fink deserve it and explain why!

We have thought very very hard. It is so difficult to pick two kitties but Prinnie and I wrestled with this decision. Finally we decided on two very special kitties.


1) MaoMao: MaoMao is the very sweetest kitty boy (he is my muzzletwin by the way) He is always very happy and caring. He is very snuggly and purrrs a lot. When he is happy, he even barks! We love that. He is a wonderful kitty.

2) Dragonheart: He is our special Sphinx buddy. He teaches us all about Germany and sphynx kitties. He is soon going to be a big brother. Dragonheart always reads very throughly and carefully and then he leaves a very friendly comment. That makes us happy. He is sooo young and perky, and we are soo olde and lazy haha

We really wanted to pick 100 other kitties as well but this was so very hard, we put all of our favorite kitties in a stocking and then we picked these two great friends :-)

Mom says when she gets back from the rink, I get to help her wrap the pressies.

Be kinder than necessary,
for everyone you meet
Is Fighting
some kind of battle.

and some do not win. ...
This week-end we learned that a former highschool chum of Blizzie's died.
She lost her battle with a very mean cancer. This sweetie girl died at the tender age of 18.
How tragic :-(

Fashion???... YES!! Fashion Friday!!

Caesar:


I have no words to describe this...

Here I am.

Okay. I think I look pretty cool. klick on the picture and you can see my cool hat too.

Happy Winter

I hope all of you have a wondermous week-end.

It is the mark of an educated mind
to be able to entertain a thought
without accepting it.

Whitecat Wordful Wednesday

Prrrrincess:
Have you noticed how we only blog on Monday, Wednesday and Friday? Mmyeah, we are not thrilled about it but mommie has been a blur of activity. She is very excited about preparing for Christmas, however she is also skating two times a week as well.

This is okay, becaaaause.... I found a Christmas pressie already!

I love this new toy. Nip makes me nuttyhappy.


We also got our Blogosphere calender and we are really happy with it!!!
Mommie wants to hang it down stairs in the eating room, but we want it upstairs our room!

Hmmmmm, we need to show you pictures of our room. It is very very comfy and wonderful.

Happy Happy Snappy Wednesday!!
purrrrs and snuggles

Remember

This December,

That love weighs more than gold!
but... gold is still really nice

Mancat Monday

Caesar:

Well, I am not allowed to nibble or lick the Christmas cactus in the bloggie below, and I really want to, but mommie put it up on the high up tv. I can't get up there anymore because I am a senior cat and my jumping legs are not reliable.
However these plants I like to sniff and lick and sometimes I chomp on them and throw the pieces on the floor. haha meeaow!

After I am done doing my mancatly destruction, I have to settle in for a nappie with my crinkly nip bee.

ps: mommie says thank you to every one for the birthday wishes and ecards. She was sooo delighted and happy to receive such sweet sentiments for her special day commemorating her aging another year!

If you don't get everything you want,
think of the things you don't get
that you don't want.

Flowers, a golden Rose and Frootbats

Caesar:
Happy Friday
Mommie keeps this plant on top of the television, because I can not jump up there anymore (I admit it! I am getting old and creaky at 16 and a half years old. I am officially an old geezer!). I love to nibble on this plant.

Now it has these pretty Christmas flowers on it.


From down here on the floor, it looks very tempting.
I want to taste this flower!!!!


We got a special flower from MissPeach. She had a wonderful teaparty and we got a golden rose! Isn't it stunning?

Thank you MissPeach
These are magic roses, and if you put your rose in water overnight,
there will be six roses there in the morning for you to share
with who ever you think has a PEACHY HEART OF GOLD.
My hope is that this golden rose will be on each blog in the Blogosphere!
We invite you to please, take this rose that Peachiegirl gave to us
and put it on your bloggie.
We love all of our kittie friends.
You are like our family now.

Prinnie and I love to snuggle, especially lately, it has been reeeally c-c-cold.
We got a pile of snow on Wednesday and now it is really icy!
We stay mostly in our paradise room upstairs because we have a heater in our room.
We are two snuggling frootbats!


Speaking of oldness....
Tomorrow, mommie joins in the December Baby club.
It is her birthday!
She says she is going to be really old, older than us even, probably a 1,000,000 in cat years!

We can only be said to be alive
in those moments when our hearts
are conscious of our treasures.

Whitekitty Wednesday

Princess:
is my favorite day of course!

yes, here it is again just incase the first one disappears.
blogger is so very annoying, slow and unpredictable.


I am just going to have a little rest here this morning in the sun with my bloo blankie, then later Caesar and I are going to visit our precious ladycat furriend, MissPeach. She is having a tea party this afternoonie.

We are very excited to go to that.

This is just the beginning of a fun month of parties and festivities, to prepare for and celebrate Christmas!
I am going to bring my favorite home made cookies to Peachiekins house, full of butter and sugar. We will be bouncing!


Have a wondermous Wednesday!
See you at the Tea Paw-tay!

Spend the afternoon.
You can't take it with you.

Happy Birthday Grampa

Caesar:
grrrr, we do not know why stoopit blogger keeps eating our pictures but the situation has caused great consternation for us and we are getting mighty peeeved !!! Here they are again:
Le cake:

Today, mommie and daddie are going to Merruhlind all day, to celebrate grampa's Birthday.
Mommie got this fancy cake at Wegmans because Chrystabelle still has the mixer at her house.
This cake looks very yummy, but it is covered with a plastic cover and I cannot taste it!
It smells good...

Daddie said I am in charge today.
So, I will be doing some extra patrols!

two quotes for a special day:

Write it on your heart
that every day
is the best day in the year.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson


One's friends
are that part of the human race
with which one can be human.
~George Santayana

ps: we just ordered our 2008 calendar.
We can't wait for it to arrive :-)
yipppeeeeee

Whitey~kitty Wednesday

Princess:


I hope every cat is doing well.
Our mommie has been busy thinking and planning for Christmas. She is determined not to get behind like she did last year... and then she had a melt down... and let me just say right here and now - it was not pretty. So, Caesar and I have been hanging around our room and when mommie needs us, we come running to help. We helped her put up the Christmas tree and put on the lights... but she has not done any shopping -- so we need to keep her focused.
I have my clean bloo blankie so I am quite happy.
We love all of you soooo much!

a quote and something fun:

How beautiful a day can be
When kindness touches it!
~George Elliston

make your own snowflake=> *clickthis*

ps: we know that all of you are helping your beans with the holiday doings, so please
do not worry about commenting. We will try to get around to a few of your bloggies and if we miss some days we usually check for your previous postings as well.
*smooochies* We apologise and pleeeese do not take it purrrrrsonally

MissPeach's meme and an awardie

~~~What do you look back over and treasure enough to place inside your BOX OF LIFE?~~~
WE really enjoyed doing this special meme of MissPeach! She is brilliant and such a sweet friend! We love her very much.

We are brother and sister and so close and loving to each other.

We treasure the love and care we have received from our family for over 16 years!!!
If one of us should leave and go to the bridge,
it will be a difficult thing for the one remaining.
We are almost always together, and when we are not, we do not stay apart for long.

The treasures you would find in our box would be:
1. the many times that we were sick and mommie took us to the vet. She made sure that we got better. Now we receive subq fluids every day or every other day. We are happy again and we know that our family wants us to be comfortable and happy. When we are not happy anymore and uncomfortable then if we do not go to the bridge on our own, we will ask mommie to help us.
2. our handmade toys that our girl beans made us. They are loaded with nip!
3. Our blankies
4. the sunshine
5. our special heater in our paradise room with the two sunny windows.
6. our special internet friends. It makes us very happy to have friends that care about us and think that we are fun kitties and love us, even though we are not young and wild anymore.
7. our Hills k/d foods. It is not Fancy Feast by any stretch of the imagination, but it is good food, and we know it is safe for us to eat.
8. subq fluids and a brave old nurse mommie to give them to us.
9. Gerber babyfoods (hamm, chick-en [yummmm], and beeef) that we get a little bit of after our subq treatments.
10. the love that we have for each other as littermates.
11. Our beans and our sister beans.


A SIMPLE BUT VERY IMPORTANT MEME: List your treasures and tag other kitties and their humans also, as many as you like. Let this reflection spread through out the world. We need to count our contentments as Blessings!
I think almost everyone has done this wonderful meme which was so appropriate for Thanksgiving time. If you have not had a chance to do this, please do and let us know so we can read it on your bloggie!

Dragonheart gave us this wonderful awardie.
We are so honored and proud to have it.
We are old kitties and we have always been gentle and tried to be nice and friendly.
We understand that in every living thing there is first and foremost goodness and love.
Thank you thank you Dragonheart

There are so many nice and friendly blogging kitties here...

Oh this is too difficult to pass on! there are sooo many kitties that really deserve this award. We really would love to give this award to every single kitty!!!
We cannot choose!!! We love all of you.

Today is going to be a quiet day. Daddy took Blizzie back to kollij early this morning. That is a very sad thing for us. We loved having her home.
We hope everyone had a delightful Thanksgiving.
One month until Christmas!! Oh how exciting, new things to play with and look at!

Gratitude is
the memory of the heart.
