Happy Gotcha Day, Kirby

Mom:  I almost forgot, Kirby, I am sorry.  We are so glad you joined our family, even though you pick on your sister a lot. You are beginning to be more cuddly and are always up for a game of chase the string!  We love how you have started getting under the covers in the morning and snuggling even if it is for a short time.I love it when you help me with all my quilting projects.

Kirby: 
 Thank you, Mom and Dad for choosing me! Out of all the other kitties at PetSmart, you picked me.I know I pick on my sister too much, but is is just so fun to see her run and hear her growl! I am trying to learn to be a snuggle buddy but I just gots too much energy! The quilting stuff is my way to show you that I want to be close and involved!



Now Lets party!   Dad!  Did you get the fountain fixed up with niptinies? There are plenty of Temptations and other treats.  There is tuna, salmon, shrimp, roast beast, chicken and ham to eat.

There are strings to chase!  There are also balls, mice and feather wands to play with.  You can climb our tree and watch bird TV from our special chairs at the door.

And when you get tired and want a nap, there are quilts all over the house!


I hope you all have fun at my party!

Easy Sunday

Angel on the new quilt and Kirby on the old one.

Can I help?

Hey, Mom , can I help you  blog.  Can I cover you in fur?  Can I get kitty hair up your nose?

Angel loves to get between me and the keyboard and screen!  She purrs and rubs and asks for scritches.  How could any one refuse that look!

Mom is playing, again!

Mom is trying to update the blog.   Mom is using an old one that Ann from Zoolarty sent us and it is beautiful even though it does not have our name on it and it is not big enough to match the blog. 

 WE received this award from  9 Kai, Chani Hokulani and their new brother Sheamus Popoki Aloysius Mango (SPAM) and their Mom Marlene.

Mom updated her quilt blog , Yellow Mound Quilts, with the Batik Flannel quilt that is finished. 

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year and wishing you a prosperous, Healthy 2012!

Mom just thinks she is going to quilt tonight.  WE have open windows and fresh air today and yesterday, too!   WE are watching Mom and Dad play in the dirt and leaves!

Mom:  We have two massive red oak trees in the front and they are just now dropping leaves.  We have done around to large paper bags so far and there is twice that still on the ground and some still on the tree!  WE are also taking advantage of the warm day to set out flowers that were dug up for the foundation work.  WE will not get it all done before dark!

Mom has been busy

She finished putting all of out flannel back together! It is not complete because it needs a back and binding, whatever that means.

Mom tried to get Kirby's picture on the quilt, but it did not take.   Can you see the black thing in the corner?  Mom and Dad put all of their cloths in it and zipped it up.  I think they are deserting us!

Mom:  Angel, we will only be gone two nights. You will be OK till we get back! I will post more photos on my quilt blog of the quilt in progress when I return .

Merry Christmas and Secret Paws

Merry Christmas to all our friends and family!

We got our Secret Paws package and Mom would not allow us to open it till today!

Kirby was protecting it till time to open it!

It has our name on it!

What is in there Mom?

They both jumped right in and started pulling goodies out! 

There were two cans of Weruva food, On The Cat Wok and Grandma's Chicken Soup!  We have never had this and can't wait for Christmas dinner!  Two bags of treats, Crispies and Natural Purrz.  All of the food except Crispies is grain free!   Mom opened the Purrz and we loved them! There were three BLUE mice.  Angel claimed the biggest one and even swatted Kirby when he wanted to look at it!  And then there was  a FAB Pet Thing!   It is like a boogie mat but is is soft fleece!

Getting treats

 

This was the cute card.  

Willow was our Secret paws friend.  We have never met her before! She is from Niskayuna NY!  That is a long way from Texas and a lot colder!   It is so nice to meet new friends! Mom told us to say there was a big bag of nip in the package, too!

Thank you Willow.  We will try to find your blog so we can visit you!

Merry Christmas Every one!
