Photo hunt, Metal

^Tink is next to a METAL baseboard!


Ty, "Mommy was using Grammom's outside (METAL) walker for a few days after hurting her leg. It has a seat so Mom put one of our cat beds on it and I jumped right in for a ride..Whoo Hoo!!"


Tang, "Can you guess what is metal?"

Finally Friday, getting back to normal!


Thankfully Grammom is getting back her life after just 3 months since her hip operation...she loves feeding the Spoos, she said it makes her feel needed. I think OBI & Luke really missed her and they seem happy she is back on duty!


What a WEEK! It started with Mommy thinking she could stop an 85lb Spoo(OBI), from playing chase with Ty and perpetuating havoc!!! She quickly put her leg out to possibly trip and slow down the white cloud of mayhem.....INSTEAD....his strong bone came up and smacked into her lower front leg, right above her ankle...OUCHY!!!STARZ!!!STINGING PAIN!!!!!! What was Mommy thinking, JEEZ!!! Well everyone was sleeping, she was doing some decorating and couldn't get to OBI fast enough to stop him in the normal SAFE way. Yup, that was her excuse.....now her leg is colorfully decorated!! She has been icing it and trying to relax a bit but with Thanksgiving approaching, she didn't get off her leg enough so Dad had to food shop......He came back with all different stuff! His EXCUSE, "it was a better deal!!! Sooooooo, Mommy had to send him out to get EXACTLY what was on the list!!! I'll tell you..the turkey he brought home the first time, well it looked like poo swimming in poo!!!! Dad said he'll eat it and Mom said...it's ALL yours!!!! Luckily Moms daughter was off early Wednesday so she really pitched in and helped with lots of the cleaning.......Mommy said it will take her a week to find all the stuff she put out of site!!GIGGLE!! One thing Mommy was so happy she bought was the Shark floor steam cleaner. It's small, light weight, and did a great job cleaning all the ceramic tile which is in every room except the livingroom. Now if she can just find where the extra cleaning pads were hidden!!! Then Mommies youngest son, Micheal started off Thanksgiving morning with the loudest BANG! Being that he is 6'4" he is taller than the fridge...a whole head taller, so......he reaches in to get milk for his cereal and CRASH!!! A pie Andra, Mom's daughter, put on top of all the vast selections of milks, had slipped behind the shelves to land behind the bottom shelf. Mike pulled out the pie dish botttom that was still at the top!!! Mike, " What the heck....all I wanted was some milk....now I have to pull out all this stuff and clean out a fridge!!!" Well he was lucky 'cause, when he finally reached the pie he found it was encased in a hard plastic wrapper, it survived!!!! Mommy was able to help a bit more because her leg was feeling better so Thangiving turned out pretty good...AND...we are now able to get back on the internet too, don't know why but we just couldn't get on...Now it's finally Friday.....THANKFULLY!!!

MANCAT MONDAY, Tinker


Tink, "These are little drawers Mommy found while treasure hunting in the Quaker second hand store. She put some of our favorite toys in them and we ask if we want a toy. If she is busy we will just lay on top and wait till she see us waiting....Oh (((MOM)))"


Tink,"So many toys to choose from...what's this!!!"


Tink, "DUCKY?..My ducky from when I was a kitten! I smell baby Tink on you!"


Tink, "Ducky, I have missed you!"


Tink, "This is so cool but......"


Tink,"My brothers can't see me with my baby toy!"

Tabby Ty Tuesday


Ty, "I've got to face it, Mom has got a problem. She can't seem to go even a day without picking up that stupid camera and pointing it at one of us. We have convinced her to delete the sound effects, take off the target beam and rarely use the flash. Why can't she make an appointment with us on the time, place and theme. We could be sound asleep or bathing or any number of things we don't want plastered all over our blog for all catdom to view. There is definitely {{NO}} chance of us grabbing the camera and using it on her 'cause she puts it in a special place like it is made of gold! Well, I've got to do something.........................


Ty, "Ok Mom, this can go smoothly or hard...it's up to you, now...hand over that darn camera!!!"

MANCAT MONDAY, Tang


Tang, "Mommy had this tent up high so Toy and Tinker could go camping. She was cleaning the campsite and let me us the tent for the day.....It's so spacious and neat!


Tang, "Mommy I want one too!!!=^Y^=

Feral Friday, Tangs disability


Hum....I don't look different, guess I am used to living with(CH)Cerebellar Hypoplasia. Gee, I am only 2 and already I am broken, defective....but mommy says, "No returns...I am hers forever! Here is some information about my disability.
CH cats are sometimes born to females who have suffered Feline Infectious Enteritis (FIE), Feline Panleukopaenia or Feline Distemper.It is usually only seen in kittens born to feral, stray or unvaccinated cats. Affected kittens may not grow as large as unaffected kittens or they may have slower development. The virus affects the cerebellum area of the brain, an area involved in fine motor control. Typical symptoms are poor co-ordination, gait abnormalities and perception. Affected cats are wobbly and have head tremors which are evident when they try to focus on something. Their gait often looks as though their body goes the opposite of what they are telling it to or one part goes in one direction while the other tries to head off elsewhere. ............TANG, "The good news is...barring any accidents caused by unco-ordination, life expectancy doesn't seem to be affect and given a SAFE environment, we can live as long as unaffected cats. Whew, good thing 'cause aside from missing a doorway or falling off a windowsill....I think I do pretty well for a little orange squirt!!! Please check out "DUDE" he is in a shelter in NYC. He is also affect with this disability and if you click on his photo you can find out more about him and see all of his cute photos. THANK YOU from me and DUDE!!!!


I'm Happy!

TABBY TUESDAY


Ty,"Can you believe it, we were left alone all day 'cause Mom & Dad took Grammom for a ride to Phillipsburg, NJ. They had to go there to get some vitamins so they decided to take Grammom up to see all the beautiful fall foliage. We didn't get to visit our furends yesterday....well, Grammom really liked getting out and seeing all the colors! After being shut in for so many weeks and winter coming soon, Mom said it would be good for her to get out. This week it is going to be warm again so we might get out on the deck,..... we are gonna hold you to that one Mommy! It's 1:31 am and Mommy said she needs to get some sleep but we will visit later!=^Y^=
