Tuxie Tuesday

Can you guess where I am?

From this vantage point I can survey my entire kingdom...

You down there, loyal subject, you may worship my Tuxiness by kissing my paw

World Cancer Day

Today we would like to say a prayer for every being on earth who is fighting this terrible disease...


and take a moment to remember, with so much love, our family and friends and furries who have lost their brave battles.

Thankful Thursday

There are few things I can think of that I am more thankful for than my cats.  They fill my days with joy, bring harmony and balance into my life, restore me when I am weary and help me to remember what is truly important.  As many of you know two of my beloved boys came from Chrystal's private rescue in Illinois; Jimmy almost a year and a half ago and Kip just four months ago.  I thank my lucky stars every day that Chrystal was able to save them as kittens which started the chain of events that led them to my house....

Kitten season is almost upon us but before it's even begun Chrystal has eleven infant kittens and three mums in her care.  That number could double in no time and there won't be any room for newcomers.  I am asking for help to spread the word that there are ten gorgeous and highly adoptable adult cats at Chrystal's cat house right now!!!  These cats have been patiently waiting for their forever homes, and an adoption at this time would free up much needed space for the the kitten crunch that is on it's way.   Please view the beautiful cats I have re-posted here from the Winnie's Wish link on Petfinder and consider opening your home and heart to give one of them or two the loving family they deserve :-)  Don't let location, yours or Chrystal's, be a deterrent in considering adoption because the Cat Blogosphere can band together and transport a kitty just about anywhere in the US or Canada!!!

I can safely say that you will not be disappointed with a Winnie's Wish kitty, they are pure LOVE!!!

The Way We Were

It's The Way We Were Day...no not the film, although while I'm on the subject did anyone else think that Robert Redford was so absolutely beautiful in that movie!?!?  Oops, I digress...
But seriously folks, it's KITTY The Way We Were Day.  A lovely little girl named Kizzie Cat just had her first birthday and thought it would be fun if we all posted our baby pictures to celebrate.


I was given this picture of Casper and his sister as babies by my friend Pauline, Casper was born under her neighbour's porch
Casper and Fluffy

This picture was taken the day after we brought Ben home...hanging with his bed buddy
Ben at five months
This is the second day we had Archie...his head was so tiny, he has such mancat cheeks now!
Archie six months
This is the first picture of adorable Jimmy and his sister, I took it from Chrystal's blog
maybe a month old?
 Kip isn't yet a year old, we've had him just over four months.  When Chrystal rescued him he was a very small baby and completely feral!  These pictures are also from her blog
not so happy in the beginning
starting to come around
Hope you've enjoyed these "misty, water-coloured memories" :-)
