AAAC Award & Serious Purring Needed

Graphics Designer Award from Anipal Academy Awards

Hi Pals,


Saturday afternoon and evening the Anipal Academy Awards Group had an appreciation/recognition ceremony to honor those in the anipal twitter group who have participated in graphics for various parties.  


Now yours truly here, has participated a couple of times in making pictures for various celebrations and parties on Twitter, but we don't hold a candle compared to some of the graphics created by some pals.  I tell you there is some excellent work out there.    We were truly honored to be included in this group of graphic designers.   M and I had fun doing it, but we are far from pros.     So thanks to the Anipal Academy Awards committee for presenting us with one of these awards too.   It is much appreciated.   


Now on to some serious business.   


One of our blogging pals needs our  purrs and prayers.  That would be Squashies over at http://tkfurreverhome.blogspot.com/, who has developed a tumor in her ear.   Her family is very worried about this poor little furbaby and would appreciate any purrs and pawprayers in Squashies' behalf.

Thanks pals.   I know that if the anipals on Twitter and  Blogosphere ban together, the rumbling will have to heal Squashies and make that nasy tumor run away forever.,

Angel JinJin - Until We Meet Again

JinJin getting her Angel wings from head angel!

Hi Pals,


Sadly, the Angels claimed a new recruit yesterday, May 16th, by the name of @JinJinDoggy.      It was a very sad day on Twitter when we heard the news and lots of anipals and their oomans had leaky eyes.  Yes, even our oomans have leaky eyes when one of my friends crosses that Rainbow bridge.   As M says, we get so attached to our friends on Twitter even tho most of us have never met face to face.


JinJin was one of those sweeties who was adored by many pals.   She was always there with a kind word for everyone she met and talked to and was always in a good mood and ready to have fun.  in fact, I think it was her idea once that she and I switch bodies when we tended bar together.  he he - It was so much fun because pals were getting confused as to who was who - ha ha even JinJin and I were getting confused.  We had trouble recognizing ourselves.   I'm so happy we decided to do it one last time about 3 weeks ago at one of the anipal parties.   Little did I know at the time that it would be our last time to be each other.

   
He he - I think JinJin made a better Mario then the real Mario.   We had so much fun anytime we switched bodies.   I'm really going to miss doing that with you JinJin!   We love Pixel, but since Pixel is brown, she just isn't going to look right in a Mario body.  Sorry Pixel.

Of course I had a great time being JinJin too, but I think JinJIn was the most bootiful.     


JinJin, sweetie, you were one of my first doggie friends on Twitter, so  we go way back.   I sure am going to miss you.   But, I know you were hurting towards the end with that nasty Arthritis guy in your bones, so I understand why you had to leave.,  At least you are in a happy place, feel no pain anymore, and are with a lot of our pals.  You will always live in our hearts tho.   Look for me each night waving my paw at your star in the sky    Last night it was the brightest one in the west.


Until we meet again some day JinJin, I'm smothering you in Mario smooches.   


Love you always,


Mario

Wordless Wednesday

Hi Pals,

SCAREY

Hi Pals, 


What do you think of my new heading at the top of the page?   Isn't it just great?   Ann Adamus over at Zoolarty designed it for me.   She does gorgeous work and does hire out her services.   Just go see her at http://zoolatry.blogspot.com/ and tell her what you need.   She has done several headers around the blogosphere.   


The other day I was napping peacefully on the sofa when this noisy truck pulled up to the house.   Then some men came tromping inside dragging this humungous, giant sized snaky thing and carried it all the way to the basement.  

M came and scooped me up and took me back to her office area and we both hid.   It was so noisy and scary cuz there was lots of loud noises and banging.   

M said something about they were having all the dust and stuff sucked out of the house.   Maybe if she'd to a better job of cleaning it, we wouldn't have to have this done.   See how big those sucky things are - they could have sucked me and M right up and tossed us into their big truck outside.   

I was more than happy when they rolled up their hose monster and took their truck and left.   


Now can a guy get some sleep around here - p l e a s e !

I've joined a blog hop - hop aboard and join too.

Whisker Wednesday / Baby Doll Needs A Home

Hi Pals,


How's this for a Whisker Hump?  He he - we didn't even know what a whisker hump was until recently when my friend @Katiebella2 told me.   (shhhh - don't tell anyone we were so dumb tho - we've only been blogging for 3 years now).  So what do you think - does this qualify for a whisker hump?


Now on to a more serious subject.   


My friend Marg over at Marg's Animals (@MargsAnimals)  needs to find a home for Baby Doll, who is about 7 years old.   She now lives with Marg in South Carolina.  So a new home in South Carolina or a neighbor state would be ideal.   

You can read all about purring Baby Doll in Marg's Blog here:     http://www.margsanimals.com/blogs/index.php/margspets/mycats/a-tabby-lady. Marg has several cats of her own that live in the house with her and she feels baby doll needs to be the "only cat" or at best maybe one other roommate.   She's not happy being one of many cats.    Please help spread the word please - whether it be by blog or a tweet, Marg would appreciate it.  We need to find this lovely girl another home soon,


Thanks pals,


Mario
