Get Well Soon Kismet!

Kismet the Big Man Cat was one of our first blogging friends, so we came out of bloggy retirement to send him purrs and purrs and purrs. We love you Kismet!

No News

There's been no news yet about Wrigley. His momma is still looking for him, though, and I think he'll come home. He gets furry scared and hides a lot of times.Thanks everybody for sending out Purrs and asking about him. Keep your eyes peeled for him!

Secret Paws!

We got our Secret Paws!!! (Actually we got them like a week ago but Mom was really slow postin' our pickshures). Merlin's came from Kali, and Dobby's came from Derby!

Merlin opened his first...

He really liked this mouse.

Mom didn't even have time to take it out of its packaging!
Also note that box of Turtles. I dunno what that is, but Mom was happy about it.

Then we opened Dobby's. It had a byoo-ti-ful mug in it, for our Mom.

Dobby sniffed the gift bag, just wondering what was inside.

Fun mousies, and Temptations, and a stocking...

And.. and.... NIP RAVIOLI!!!!

Dobby and Merlin both played with the Ravioli... and then streaked around the house, and finally crashed for a catnap.

Thank you very much, Kali and Derby!!! And Happy Secret Paws to everyone!!!

We Remember

They say memories are golden
well maybe that is true.
I never wanted memories,
I only wanted you.

A million times I needed you,
a million times I cried.
If love alone could have saved you
you never would have died.

In life I loved you dearly,
In death I love you still.
In my heart you hold a place
no one could ever fill.

If tears could build a stairway
and heartache make a lane,
I’d walk the path to heaven
and bring you back again.

Our family chain is broken,
and nothing seems the same.
But as God calls us one by one,
the chain will link again.

Sadness

Merlin here.

We haven't been good about blogging, or commenting. But we have been reading efurrybody's blogs.

And we're just so sad.

Mommy's eyes keep leaking every day it seems like, with so much sad news lately.

We want to send purrs and love and headbutts to all our friends in the cat blogosphere. Especially the families of those we have lost this week.

Ubee, sweet and small, my Not-the-Mama-in-law cared for. Not the Mama made Ubee's last days warm, safe, and full of love.

Oscar a very handsome Man Cat, unexpectedly went to the Bridge. You can read about him at Emma's blog.

Anastasia is ruling the roost at the Rainbow Bridge now, and is free from worries.

True Confessions

We were both tagged by Ariel and Mr. Hendrix to tell our True Confessions...


Merlin:
1. I don't really know what to confess because I never do anything wrong.
2. Or at least if I do, nobody knows about it, so there's no way I'm confessing it now.
3. I will say that despite my manliness, I do get startled sometimes and have to run and hide under the couch.
4. Also, I am really glad that my whiskers are growing back, even though I pretend it's no big deal.
5. I really like Dobby, even though I sometimes pretend he's a pest.


Dobby:
1. I like to chew whiskers. :)
2. I really like it when Mommy kisses the white spot on my belly, even though I pretend to hate it.
3. I can sneak up and sleep on the bed with Mommy and Daddy and Daddy doesn't even notice.
4. Sometimes I get on the kitchen counter, just to see what's up there.
5. When Merlin hides under the couch, sometimes I hide too, even if I'm not really scared.

By request, I tag Meankitty for this one.

We're it!

We's been tagged! Mungo & Teazer tagged us to tell about our favorite things.

Get well Lilly Lu!

The image of Lilly Lu was created by Daisy, who did a Thursday Thirteen for Lilly Lu today, and she says you can use it on your blog if you want!

For Bear

Bear,

We never got to meet you in purrson, but we always thought you were a super-cool woofie. We know that KC and Missy thought so.

We will miss you. We will see you again someday, so have fun while you wait for us...

Love,
Merlin, Dobby, Mom, Max and Coco.

5 Reasons

We got tagged by our friends Iris and Lily, and Pablo, for this fun meme!

Five Reasons I blog, by Dobby:

1. Cause I like to keep in touch with my first Mom, my sister, and the 2 Bs.
2. Cause Merlin does it and I wanna be just like him.
3. Cause I am furry sociable and I like to meet new kitties and beans.
4. Cause Mom thinks it's cute, and I do whatever I can to make Mom think I'm cute. ;)
5. Cause it's fun!

Five Reasons I blog, by Merlin:

1. Because I am stuck in this house with my little bro all day, and I need some escape.
2. Because I have to keep connected with my girlfriend, Daphne!
3. Because ever since I started this blog, I've met lots of new and wonderful kitty friends.
4. Because I'm online anyway, surfin' the net and stuff.
5. Because I am a Big Man Cat and that is what we do!

We tag anyone who hasn't played yet!

Hungry on Mu Shue Monday

Merlin here.

So my Mommy took my food away from me last night! I don't know why she'd be so mean to do that. I was so hungry! This morning, she put Dobby in his carrier and then she gave me my food back. So now I unnerstand, Dobby had to go the V-E-T today and so he wasn't allowed to eat. So that means I don't get to eat? How is that fair? Doesn't make sense to me. Anyway, the little bro's gettin' his goodie sack taken care of today, so y'all keep his goodie sack in your purrayers.

Also, Mr. Hendrix had an awesome idea about how we can help Mu Shue's momma get him all better. So go visit his page. Cause we know Mu Shue's momma wants to get him feelin' better and she needs help. Incidentally, Mu Shue's kinda my brother-in-law now, cause his little Sister Iris and my little bro Dobby seem to have somethin' goin' on. Wonder if she knows about his goodie sack? :) Hee Hee.

6:37 pm: Dobby is home. He doesn't seem to notice that he's missin' his goodie sack. He's already followin' me around and eatin' my food, just like normal.
