Secret Paws

My Secret Paw box arrived!!
Its from Kaze, Latte & Chase, Thank you all so much!
Actually, the box arrived yesterday, but mean ol' mombean said I had to wait until to day to open....
Open, open, open!

Ooooo! A lovely new purr pad. Purr-fect for a nice snuggle.

And what is this? It looks like some of your takeout leftovers.

(please ignore mombean's feet at the bottom of the picture. I mean white sweat socks and icky-tacky wornout brown clogs. She swears she only wears them in the house! She can be soooo tacky.)

Oooooo! These are lovely! Soft and fuzzy fortune cookies filled with nip! My fortune sez I'll have a happy new year.
And a red puff and sparkle ball, my faves!

Fewwwww. After chasing around with the fortune cookies like mad I need to rest. Ah, my new purr pad in a nice sunbeam, just the thing for a little snooze. Yeah, I gives the fortune cookies 4 paws up, they are really great.

Thank you Kaze, Latte & Chase this is the best Secret Paws ever!

Dewey The Library Cat

My great pals Kimo & Sabi had a fun contest on their blog and the prize was a great book: Dewey The Small-Town Library Cat Who Touched The World.
Thank you, thank you guys!

As you can see from the cover of the book, he's a Gorgeous Ginger mancat.
I think we look a little alike. But then all ginger mancat's are handsome!

This was a fun contest, and I'm really looking forward to settling on mine mombean's lap so she can read it to me. Reading together is always a special time, and this will be a lot more fun than the history and politics books she usually reads.

BONUS:
Photo shoot out-take!
Hey! Where's ma head??

Presents!

This fall mine cousins in Mass-a-chew-zits adopted 2 lil' kittens that needed a forever home. They came to their forever September 26, they were only 6 weeks old. Now, that is a little young to leave their catmom, but they was in a bad place and really needed a forever home.

Well, Jennie and Winston, the cutest black kittens ever, slurped up their milk replacer and munched their kitten chow and their V-E-T said they were amazingly healthy and should grow to be good cats.
They live with 2 older kitties, Spencer and Audrey, who have been helping them grow up, even though little kittens can be a pain in the tail with their antics.

In the house in Mass-a-chew-zits they have a big hot box called a Franklin Stove. See the beans make a fire in the box and it gets all warm. There is a big pillow in front of the hot box that is the warmest place in the house. Of course that is the best place to nap.

I thought that they would like to have some kitty Ham-icks so that there wouldn't be fights over the pillow. I sent the Ham-icks for their Holiday pressie. Oh, I sent some nip Raviolis too, and some treats for the big kitties!
(Click on the pics to big-i-fy)
They opened the package early, coz it was getting cold outside and all the kitties were trying to nap on 1 pillow. As, you can see they love the Ham-icks!
(sorry, the pics aren't great, the bean's don't do digital pics so these are pis of pics)


As you can see the kittens are still small enough to snuggle together on one Ham-ick! Aren't they the sweetest ever?
Or, they each have their own, Jennie likes the nip Raviolis too.
They like to chase each other back and forth and bounce on the Ham-icks like trampolines.

(Spencer was napping in a undisclosed location and wouldn't come out to have his picture taken.)

Big thanks to Forty Paws and the HotMBCs for helping me to give the best pressies ever!

Snow Day

Look at what mine good friends Diamond Emerald Eyes made for me!Its totally C-O-O-L!!
Thank you Diamond.

Because I'm a San Francisco kitty I never actually seen snow, but it does look fun.

{snort .... giggle .... laugh}

Hey, mombean, stop laughing at me! She grew up in New England where mine pal Millie lives. This is what is looks like when is snows at Millie's house. It sure looks cold. And its s'posed ta be wet too. Maybe mombean is right, its fun to look at, but ya don't want ta be in it.

I think I'll just nap in mine nice warm kitty cave.

The Look & An Award

Last week mine good pal Halloween gave me a super cool award and mine mombean hasn't done anything about helping me post it to mine bloggie.

Hummppppffffffff!
I disprove of such tardiness and had to do something about it.
So, I jumped on the desk, got in her face and gave her The Look.
As you can see it got results.

Thank you, thank you Halloween for this great award!
It says:

"With the Premium Dardos, recognize the values that each blogger shows each day in commitment to transmit cultural values, ethical, literary, personal etc. that, in short, demonstrate their creativity by alive thinking that remains intact from their letters and words."

This label implies two rules: the first, link the blog to which he/she received the award. The second - pick blogs to deliver the prize."
I's would like to hand it on to:

Darling Millie

&

Roxy & Lucky

Both are great blogs and they post everyday!
(I can only dream of making mine mombean blog that often.)
Thir bean's are sisters, so I guess it runs in the family. Also, they lives in New England (USA) and that is where mine mombean grew up, so she kinda feels like they are neighbors -- a few thousand miles from here. But, really, there is no distance in cyberspace is there?

Tummy Tuesday

Sometimes a guy just likes to let it all hang out.

Easy Like Sunday Morning

Easy Like Sunday Morning.......Smoozin' in a Sunbeam

Mmm, Mmmm Good

In the afternoon mine mombean likes to have a cup of coffee to perk her up and keep her going.

Me, I like a little nosh of greens!

Hey, Sol & Faith Boo This is NOT the right way to nom nom yer greens.
That goes for you too Smokey & BJ.

BJ, you was doin' it right here.

Greens is sooo good to nom and sooo good for ya!

Helpin' With The Chores

Hey!
I knows the mombean is cuttin' back and tryin' ta save, but....
The new trash bags she's got doesn't fit the trash basket.
Just look!
I's can get mine paw in here. What will happen if the trash does too?


Nothing good comes when ya try's ta help.
Ya knows, I think I'm just gonna act like nothing is wrong.
Ya thinks she'll notice?

(mombean note: He had his whole head in the hole at one point. Alas, I wasn't quick enough with the camara)

Farmer Beezer's Farm Report

Hi kitties!
Farmer Beezer here with the farm report.

I know that for all you kitties in the northern climates its harvest time for your outsides garden, and now its time to start thinking about your insides winter garden. I have have 2 lil' pun'kins fresh from the vine to dress up mine window garden spot. I thinks it adds a little somethin' special. (I has to get the mombean to wash the outsides of the window. She says its a pain in the 'tocks coz we lives on the 3rd floors)

As you can see I have a nice crop of yummy kitty grass for some green munchin'. I also have some nip comin' in for the dark and cold evenings ahead. Its soooo hard to just let it grow and not take a little munch to make sure that its growing right. But, it really is worth the effort. A little fesh nip makes any time brighter! (Also, mine mombean keeps moving it to a window shelf where I can't get to it. Bummer.)

So make sure that you have all your supplies for the winter window growing season ahead. I always suggest you get some fresh 'wheat berries' from the health food store to grow the best kitty grass coz its cheaper. You's just plant them like they's seeds -- coz they are!
Save some green papers for happy beans and grow munchy greens for a happy kitty!

Ta-ta for now,
Farmer Beezer

I Am So Not....

BORING!!

Yeah, that's what I said.
I am not. Boring.
See the reason I haven't had a new post in so long is that I've been told that I really don't do anything very interesting. Well, Hummmpppffffffff is all I have to say to that.


Here's what I've been doin'..........Nappin' in mine kitty cave. Now that the season has started to change I'm changing up mine nappy spots.

Checkin' out the baby pumpkins we gots for fall decorations.

Sharin' mine bed with a lil' pumpkin to show the Great Pumpkin that I'm a sincere mancat so's he'll bring me lots & lots o' treats on Halloween.

Back to mine Kitty Cave for a snooze after playin' with mine favorite rolly-ball, parked next to mine cave.

Checkin' out the Ham-Micks I gots for holiday prezzies to send to mine cousins back east. I must say Dorfington Fish Stanley Does a great job here. I'm sure that mine cousins in New York and in Mass-a-chew-sits will love these. Please note that I restrained mine self and just gave it a good sniff; then put a little of mine own smell on it, but didn't nap on it.
(I hopes your brofur, Bow, is feelin' better. Purrs to hims)

Listening to sweet Darling Millie demanding some treats!
You go girl! Tell that mombean to make with the good stuff and quit takin' all the pictures.

Cozyin' up to mine nip ravioli/ pillow for a little r'n'r.

Now does all this sound like I'm a boring fellow??
No, I don't think so either.

Look What I Gots In The Mail

So this afternoon I was sittin' around just usin' mine laser eyes to tele-path-icly beam the idea that some treats would be a good idea when ....

Hey! Is that the door-buzz?

Oh, its the bloo-shorts folks.
they's always hittin' the door-buzz coz we got's a small mail box and mine mombean was compainin' that bloo-shorts folks was stuffin' and jammin' the mail in the box. It was gettin' all bent and smooshed and wadded up, and some of her mag-zines was getting ripped. Grrrrr, she said.

Well, today when she gots back from the mail box she said:
"Hey, Beezie," (she calls me Beezie sometimes) "there is a package for you!"
I could tell right away that it must be from mine pal Skeezix, coz it had P-I-N-K tape on it! Where he got pink tape I donno'.
Look at what he sent me! Some totally cool Skeezie cards, I'm only gonna send these to mine bestest friends. There is a selection of 4 cards (2 of each) so's I can have just the right card for the occation. Like Rock Star Skeezix for a happy birthday (50's or 80's), or Skeez-a-lisa for a get well, or Skeezix Gothic for con-cat-ulation for a new jobbie or home. They's blank on the inside so I can write whatever I want to make it personal.
There is also some great Catster swag! And some Skeezix and Catster button pins that I gave to mine mombean (after she begged and gived me treats) so she can put them on her backpack that she takes everywhere.

Thank you, thank you Skeezix!
You are a great pal!
I'm sure that everyone who gets a special Skeezix card will think you are handsome.

Pirate Day

Arrrrgggg, me fellow hearties!
Tis a fine day for a cruise and I gots mine jolly roger flag:

I's all set to sail and shiver me timbers, 'tis a fair blow comin' up. Set me course for adventure and lots of booty. I hopes to find a fair lass to join me. Any scally-wag who gets in mine way will feel the sharpness of mine claws!

My pirate name is:

Mad Roger Flint

Every pirate is a little bit crazy. You, though, are more than just a little bit. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!

Get your own pirate name from piratequiz.com.

Oh no's! The Black Furrball's mombean has lost her beloved Merlyn. Please go and give her lots a good purrs to help her feel better.

Love Eyes & Awards

Every night after mine mombean has done all the things that she does ... I don't know ... stuff at the hot box, stuff at the sink, stuff where she kicks me outta the desk chair ... ya know. I make her sit down and watch a little TV. Then I get in her lap and just relax. I like to look up at her and give her the Love Eyes.
(Oh, she says don't look at the plaid PJ pants and soft 'n' old big shirt she has on!)

Look at these nice awards that mine brofur from andder mudder Ping gave to me!
Thanks, Pal, You Rock Dude!!

I pass these awsome awards on to:
Fat Eric (from one ginger bro to another, to another!)
The sweeties at House of the (Mostly) Black Cats
And anyone else who wants to play

OMG Sandals!

Mine mombean has these cheap plastic sport sandals that I just love!
I'm not a shoe guy; boots & slippers & Sneakers do nothing for me, but I just can't get enough of these sandals.
She doesn't wear then often, but it was hot today so she put them on to go shopping. When she got home & took them off..... OMG

I sniff on them.....

I rub all over on them ........

Oh, yes, I do!!!!!!!!


(Ya know what else? Her toes & legs are just as white as mine.)

One Word Wednesday

***Tummy-pooch***

Back To Bed

::Sigh::
Its nice to go back to bed after a good breakfast.

Indignant!

Oh, sure I look like Mr. Happy 'n' Relaxed now .....

But earlier today I went to mine box to take care of bid'ness. You know what I'm talking about. I seemed to have a little digestive issue and I made a bit of a mess. While that alone is a bit embarrassing, its not really a big deal, right Skeezix? Baby Mao?

Well, I gotted some on mine tail, and when mine mombean smelled it, she shrieked! She grabbed me and hauled me to the kitchen sink, plopped me in and turned on the water! I gots mine tail and spot 13 washed but good!! It will take me hours to get mine furs all back to normal.

This is not the way a mancat should be treated. I mean unceremoniously dumped into the sink and washed, with water! Humpfffff!! I am Indignant! This is no way for a mancat of mine stature to be treated.

Anyone have any ideas on how I can get mine revenge?

For Sprout

Where have you been?

All this week mine mombean has been rushing through dinner and then dashing out the door to be gone for about an hour. Then when she comes home with odd smells on her.
Where has she been going?
She has been seeing other kitties!
Their beans are on vacation, and she has been going to feed and check on them.
This is Bucky. He's a handsome buff - light ginger mancat. Mine mombean sez that he is really sweet and always meets her at the door with a meow and begs for lovin'. Yes, he's a real love sponge. He likes to give her little sandpaper kisses and even little love bites. Not the kind of bites that hurt, he's much too much of a gentlemancat for that, and little soft paw whaps (claws carefully sheathed) too. Mine mombean gives him lots of pets and brushes him too, he likes that. He also follows her around when she is getting his chow and fresh water. She even scoops the litter!

This is Suzy-Q. She's a little shy at first, but she really likes mine mombean now. She likes to be rubbed on and brushed. She even gave mine mombean some sandpaper kisses too! I think she's a real looker, she has such sweet eyes, and beautiful cow-cat black spots. First Halloween and now Suzy-Q, California Girls kitties are da bomb! Am I right guys?

They are more interested in getting loves then the chow she gives them (the bowls are all empty when she goes to see them -- I guess they feel that they can eat any time but gotta get the lovin' while she's there), which mime mombean thinks is really sweet. So, she has been sitting with them for a while and giving them pets and stuff.

Mine mombean sez that their beans will be back from their vacation tomorrow. I guess that its OK that she has been going to see them and getting their smell all over her hands and jeans. They might be lonely with there mombean and dadbean away.

As long as mine mombean remembers who really owns her. Me!

Sweet Violette Noelle

Little Sprout you were so sweet. I am soooo sad that you couldn't stay longer. There is a very special Angel looking down on us all today.

A Visit With Halloween!

Mine mombean went to have lunch with Halloween's Food Lady and they talked about all kinds of neat stuff. Including how to make our bloggies better. She said it was a lot of fun and really cool to meet another mombean who is just as crazy funny as she is!

She even got to meet Halloween in person. She is even prettier in person with lots of cute ginger tinged furrs. Ya know what? She sniffed mine mombean's hand! Then she ran away like any sensible kitty; and gave her a good meow to boot. Atta girl Halloween, you're mine kinda ladycat.

Look at all the goodies that Halloween sent home for me!
Hey, that Party Mix is a new kinda treat for me. It smells really good.
I wanna eat some!!
Open Wide, here comes the good stuff.....

*Nom, nom, nom, nom*

More Please! This has all mine favorite flavors, Shrimps, Crabs, and Tunas. Its a party in mine mouth.

Thank you, Thank you Halloween and Food lady.
