Interesting Night

Hi Pals,

We had a little situation at our house on Friday night.   M had been grumbling  for the past several nights I haven't been sleeping with her, and she misses me.   Well, I've been busy - have things to do  at night.

At 3:00 O'Dark Saturday morning M got up  to use the human litter box, I guess.   Anyway she looked for me but didn't see me.   I can't get out when all the doors and windows are locked, so she went back to bed.

About 4:15 O'Dark I really pounced on M's bed.   She thought I had come there to sleep----wrong!   I wanted to wake her up, and I was very insistent about it too by getting in her face.  She thought I just wanted her to give me more room, so she moved over.   I stayed in her face.   Then her brain kicked in and she knew I wanted something.

The minute she looked like she was going to  get up, I shot off for the kitchen, rattled the vertical binds on the Patio and sat there like is shown in the picture.  She turned on the light so she could see, and this is what greeted her:

I was upset because I wanted her to either go get the mousie or let me out so I could get him.  I knew he wasn't supposed to be climbing on our patio screen door.   As you can see, he was pretty high up on the screen door and looked like maybe he was headed back down again.  I was hoping M would open the door and put out the bird seed early so I could sneak out the door quick.  Dang!

M said now she knows why I haven't been coming to bed.  I've been guarding Mousies!

Hey - That Is Me! - Selfies Blog Hop & Prezzie

Selfie Picture for Blog Hop

Hi Pals,

I'm joining http://thecatonmyhead.com/  Selfie Blog Hop today.  That top picture is my selfie picture.  ha ha - who else would it be!

Then, look at me in the second picture.   Those are earrings that KatieIsabella's mom gave M.   Don't they look just like me?   She had seen them on an Etsy site a couple of weeks ago and recognized me right away and wanted to get them for M.   M just loves them.  She wore them when she went out a couple of times this past week with friends, and everyone commented right away that she was wearing earrings just like Mario!  It's hard to see in the picture, but I even have a little pink nosie!  I really do too!   Thank you Katie's momma - we just loves them and it was a great surprise for M when they arrived in the mail.   

Now go over and take a look at http://thecatonmyhead.com/'s blog and join this fun blog hop.   I've met so many wonderful new pals on this blog  hop.  Join us!

Be sure to visit me tomorrow too to hear all about our (M and me)  adventure at 4:00 o'dark this morning.

Prezzies - It Is Not Christmas

Hi Pals,

The other day I gots a prezzie, and it's not even Christmas anymore.   M ordered it for me after reading all about Catnip Confection's BonBons  in TheStunningKeisha's Bloggy.   CK loved them, and if CK loves them, M figured I had a good chance of liking them too.  You see, I don't like many toys - just my Neko Flies and now these BonBons.)

"Oooo, this smells great!

BonBons are available in 4 Flavors - Catnip Caramel; Catnip Valerian Cordial; Honeysuckle Cream; Silvervine Truffle.    My favorite seems to be the Silvervine Truffle, but I like the others too.  (I have not been compensated by the people who make these Bonbons - I really, truly liked them)

Caturday Art Blog Hop

Hi Pals,

It's been awhile since M and I have fooled around with artsy stuff, we decided this would be the week for it.  

M tweeked the photo in Photoshop Elements and then put it in PiZap to do some fancy work.   This is the first time she has used PiZap and she was really impressed with the unique filters and how easy the program is to use.   If you have been afraid to try any of these free program, give PiZap a try.   It's very very easy and gives some very unique results.

I'm Joining AthenaTheCatGoddess's Caturday Art Blog Hop.  Join us and have some fun.

Thankful Thursday - Warm Bed

Hi Pals,

You know it's been soooooooooo cold here - just like at your house.   I've been spending a lot of time napping and cuddled up.   I am so thankful for nice warm, comfy beds when it's so cold outside and at night in the house when the heat is turned down.

M is wondering how I can go from being curled up into a tight little ball when I'm sleeping by myself to this when I'm sleeping with her at night.   I don't see what the problem is!   She just has to have something to complain about.  She claims I take up most of the bed.   I don't really know what her problem is!   Humans!!!!!!  She should  be happy that I'm in bed with her keeping HER WARM!

I'm also thankful for @PepiSmartDog's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop.   Join us - it's easy and fun.  Take a minute to go over to Pepi's blog and see the gorgeous pictures his mom has posted.  WOW!

And, I'm thankful that Joe is back home with Marq.  Go over to Marg's Animals and see how good he looks and how happy he is to be out in his own pasture again.  We are so very thankful that we are a part of such a caring, helpful community that pulls together when someone is in need of green papers.   Thanks to all of you for helping Marg  with green papers so Joe could get the help he needed.   What a wonderful community we have.

Life Is Good Selfie Blog Hop

Hi Pals,

I had to have a little help from M in taking this selfie as I was....ah....busy at the time.

M says we really need to get more pictures of me upright instead of all sleeping.   I say, sleeping is what I do best.   Don't ruin a good thing M.

Stay warm pals - it's going to be -35 wind chills for us most of this coming week.   Sure am happy I'm an indoor kitty.

I'm joining ACatOnMyHead's Sunday Selfie Blog Hop. 
Go over and check out their site, it's full of cute kitty pictures too.   Then check out the other pals that have joined this hop.   Then, considering joining yourself - it's fun.
