Thick Coats of Fur Come in Handy

I rarely go inside this cat bed but today I decided to give it a go.  You'd think it wouldn't be comfy with laying on all that wicker but with my padding and thick coat of furs, it's not bad.

Thinking of my brother Angel Minchie and wishing him a Happy Birthday up at The Bridge.  There is still such a big void in our lives but we have lots of wonderful memories and pictures.

Flashback Friday

Today's flashback from August 2009  is a sweet one of Angel and his stairs.

STAIRWAY TO...

...Mom's bed.

A friend of Angel's Mom gave her this staircase to help Angel get up on the bed. We are keeping it until Angel goes back home so he can get use to it.

One morning Mom heard all this commotion and rolled over and who should be climbing up the steps but Angel! She was shocked!

Angel looks very proud of himself!

Laila - 1, Mousie - 0

I am totally wiped out after deading my red mousie.  It was an epic battle!

Flashback Friday

This flashback from August 2009 shows Angel chomping on Mom's flowers on the balcony.

TAKE TIME TO SMELL THE FLOWERS

Angel's first trip out on the balcony.

Smell, Angel, smell! Don't eat them!!!

 

Needless to say, he doesn't get to go out there anymore.

What's That Under the Bed?

 Mom walked into the bedroom the other day and saw this.

She got a little closer to the floof and realized it was me sort of under the bed with all the under the bed boxes she keeps there.  This is where I like to go for my morning naps.

Flashback Friday

This August 2009 flashback is "Angel" Angel and Laila looking like they are getting ready to duke it out.

FORMERLY FERAL FRIDAY

Angel and Laila have a love/hate friendship going on. Mainly because Laila likes to be the boss lady and Angel doesn't like being bossed around, especially by a silly girl. But overall, they are very good buddies.

Fly Free Sweet Sammy

JoJo and Sammy

Mom got some very sad news last Saturday.  Our friend, Sammy, who Mom cat sat for for the past nine years ran off to The Bridge.  She had kidney issues and had just turned 18.  Mom got so attached to her as she cat sat so many times to even remember and most for very long periods of time while her daddy traveled for business.  She will be missed and will live on in our hearts. Her sister, JoJo, pictured on the left, ran off to The Bridge three months ago.  We are hoping when the time is right, that their daddy will adopt a new kitty or two to fill this void in his life.

Flashback Friday

This sleepy flashback is from August 2009

EASY SUNDAY

Minchie has decided this is where he's going to spend his Easy Sunday. Sorry Mom, you can't finish making the bed today.

Angel is passed out on his snuggle that was made by Lisa.

Laila is keeping Mom's recliner nice and warm for her for her nap later this afternoon.

We hope everyone has a wonderful Easy Sunday today!

Grumpy Cat Impurrsonation

 We love our Grumpy Cat stuffed animal, even more so since he ran off to The Bridge.

 Here I am doing my best to imitate his grumpiness.

I think I did a pretty good job.  What do you think?

Missing Our Minchie

 

A year ago today our sweet Minchie ran off to The Bridge.  The sadness is still as strong as that day.  Not a day goes by that his presence is missed.  Where ever Mom went, Minchie was there.  He was her little velcro kitty.  His memory lives on in our hearts and will forever.
