HAPPY 14TH BIRTHDAY, ANGIE!!

Hi Efurryone!
It's me, Angie, and today is my 14th birthday! When Mommy gets home from work tonight, she said we are gonna to have tuna (yippee!) and a new, special treatie. The new treatie is called "Party Mix" from Friskies. I like most any treat, but my most favorite is Whisker Lickins from Purina.

On a more serious note, I would like to ask efurryone if they could stop by and visit Billie at Twilight's Muse. She is not feeling very well right now and her Mommy is very worried about her. We are sending her lots of purrs and huggies and we hope she feels better very soon!

HI EFURRYBODY!

It's me, Angie! We're so sorry for not posting recently! Mommy has been a bit preoccupied as of late. Unfortunately, there are layoffs looming at Mommy's work, and she is very concerned about holding on to her job. This makes Mommy very worried and sad, and she hasn't felt like helping us with our bloggie. We are keeping our paws crossed here at the Kitty Hut and hopefully everthing will turn out okay!

PRECIOUS PIXIE

Hi Efurrybody,
We just found out today about beautiful Pixie making her journey to the Rainbow Bridge. Pixie always held a very special place in our hearts and we delighted in seeing pictures of her posted on her sister, Daisy's, blog. We will miss her terribly. Until we see you again, precious and brave girl.

TORTIE TUESDAY

Hi Efurryone!
It's me S'moresy :) We hope all kitties and beans had a wonderful weekend! Our Mommy is coming up with a schedule of what she wants to post about everyday - hopefully this will help us in posting more regularly! :)

Technically, today's post would fall under Mancat Monday - but I'm gonna let my brother be a blog hog just this once! It seems that my crazy brother, Rocky, likes honeydew melon! After Mommy got done doing some of her evening "stuff" - like getting us our Fancy Feasties, packing her lunch for work, etc., she got out a container of honeydew melon to nosh on. Well, she stepped out of the kitchen for just a second to look at something on TV.....and the next thing we heard was a big crash, silverware hitting the floor, etc. When Mommy got to the kitchen, there was ROCKY doing the noshing on Mommy's honeydew melon! Hehehehe...looks like Mommy will be heading back to the fruit market for more honeydew....... :)

TIP TOP TUESDAY

Hi Efurryone!

It's me Rocky and I'm hanging out on top of our refridgerator! Not too long after coming to live with my Mommy and sisters, I figured out how to jump up onto our stove and then hop up onto the top of the fridge. I love it up here - it allows me to survey all the goings on in our kitchen. This comes in very handy - especially when Mommy is preparing our Fancy Feasties for us!

Please be sure to stop by http://floofandfur.blogspot.com today and check out the post by my sister, Angie, and I.

We hope every kitty and bean in the cat blogosphere had a wonderful weekend!

OUR COUSIN, ABBY

Happy Monday Efurryone!

This past weekend here in southeastern Michigan was a big weekend for boaters. It was the weekend for the annual Port Huron to Mackinac Sailboat Race. The weekend kicks off with a big celebration on Friday evening called "Boat Night". This is a picture of our "not of our species" cousin Abby, watching all the festivities from her boat....er, her Dad's boat, actually! She looks like she's having lots of fun. Somehow, we kitties don't think we would like boats too much....we're sure they are pretty darn scairty!!

SUNDAY FUN

Create your own family sticker graphic at pYzam.com

Hi Efurryone!

We found this cute widget over at 2 Carolina Cats and we thought it would be fun to try it out! We hope all kitties and beans are having a great Fourth of July weekend. The weather here at our house couldn't be more perfect, so we are having a great weekend so far!

Tomorrow, Mommy says "it's back to the old grind". We're not sure what that is, but it doesn't sound like fun!

WORDY WEDNESDAY

Hi Efurryone!
We missed all of you! So sorry we have not posted on our bloggie for a while (Bad Mommy!) We have so much to catch efurryone up on.....

First, Angie hadded her annual v-e-t appointment last Saturday. They did all kinds of terrible things to her - bloodwork, shots, toe nail trim, butt squeezing (eeeeuuwww!!) Boy, was she mad after that!!!! When Dr. Julie (our v-e-t) gotted her bloodwork back, it showed that Angie's kidney "values" are creeping up a little bit. They are still within the normal range, but Dr. Julie decided to put her on some special foods. It's called Hill's Prescription Diet k/d. Angie gets to have canned foods and dry! She especially liked the canned - 'acause it's chicken flavor! Other than that, Dr. Julie says that Angie looks great and is doing very well! Now, Mommy has to pick her next v-e-t visitor......hmmmm, Rocky or S'more.........

Speaking of Rocky and S'more.......you guys will never guess what happened! Mommy was sitting in the living room on Sunday afternoon. All of a sudden she hears S'more hissing and yelling and making a big ruckus! Of course, the first thing Mommy saided was..."Rocky, what are you doing?" (hehehehe) Well, much to Mommy's surprise and amazement, Rocky had our little S'more cornered and was...ahem....attempting to do "what comes naturally" with her!! Mommy couldn't believe it! Since we have all had our hoo-ha-hectomies, Mommy was a little confused by the whole thing. (Mommy you are such a dork!) After checking into this on the internets, she figured out that Rocky was exhibiting dominating behavior.....and not, er, something else......

S'more was tagged for a meme by the beautiful Zuzu at Annazu and she will be posting about that very shortly. We would also like to say a special hello to Sammy and Miles Meezer and their sweet little brother Billy for checking in on us. We is okay - just going totally cuckoo!!!

Happy Wordy Wednesday efurryone - we loves you guys!!

LOSING KITTIES AND BEANS

Hello Efurryone,

We would like to apologize for not posting our tribute to Stormie until today, but Mommy has been having a hard time dealing with the recent losses we've had in the cat blogosphere world. She just wasn't able to write a post for dear little Stormie yesterday and wanted to wait until today, when she felt better.

Darling little Stormie, you certainly did win, sweetheart. We know you are enjoying the bright sunshine and lush green fields at the Rainbow Bridge. Until you and your wonderful family meet again, we know you will watch over them and be their guardian angel.

Mommy also wanted to post a bit about the passing yesterday of Tim Russert from NBC News. What a shock and sad loss for his family, coworkers, and the country as a whole. Mr. Russert seemed like such a nice man - devoted to his faith, family, and his profession. Godspeed, Mr. Russert. The angels have added a new member to their ranks.

We hope all of our friends in the cat blogosphere are doing well on this Saturday. (((HUGS))) to all of you. You are all very special and we are very fortunate to be a part of this great community!

TORTIE TUESDAY - THINGS WE LIKE

Our little S'more has a skin condition called Feline Miliary Dermatitis. This can be caused by a number of things from an allergic reaction to flea bites - or other types of allergies - to an autoimmune deficiency. In S'more's case, her tests for parasitic infestation came back negative, so the v-e-t believes it is a deficiency in Omega 3 Fatty Acids in her diet.

Mommy discovered the problem when she noticed red blotches all over her back and a significant loss of her fur in these affected areas. Mommy said it reminded her of Mange that woofies get. The v-e-t prescribed some antibiotics (in case there was any type of infection going on) and also 3V Caps in liquid (oil) form. It is loaded with Omega 3 fatty acids and has done wonders for S'more's skin and coat. Mommy puts a couple of drops in her food in the morning and at night. S'moresy will probably have take this for the rest of her life - we don't think she minds, though, 'acause it tastes just like fish! How yummy!

MONDAY, MONDAY

S'MORE: Hi Efurryone ~ We enjoyed Sammy Meezer's Thursday Thirteen so much last week, I thought I would post about some things I heard around the Kitty Hut this weekend.....

"Rocky, what are you doing?...."

".......Rocky, leave your sister alone, please..........."

"Okay, who left the hairball in the middle of the floor.....Angie?!"

"Rocky.....why are you sitting on my toothbrush?!............ACK!"

"Rocky, let Mommy eat in peace, please........"

"Mommy loves her babies sooooooo much!!!!!!"

S'MORE: Hee, hee ........ sounds like I'm the only good kitty in this house!

We hope efurryone has a great week!!

REMEMBERING DANDELION & ANNIVERSARIES

Hi Efurryone ~ Our friends at Zoolatry made this beautiful picture of our friend Dandelion who went to the Rainbow Bridge yesterday. Dandelion was the older brother of Muddy and Myst over at BloggingCat.com.

Today our Mommy is remembering her Mommy who went to Heaven 25 years ago today. Our Mommy was just 20 years old when Grammy passed away and she says she is amazed at how quickly the time has passed! We think we need to sit on Mommy today and give her lots of purrs and kitty kissies!

Have a wonderful Saturday efurry kitty and bean!

GOODBYE, DANDELION

It is with a very heavy heart that we are writing this post. Our friend, and Muddy's hero, Dandelion, over at Bloggingcat.com has gone to the Rainbow Bridge.

We have been visiting Dandelion, Muddy, and Myst for some time now, and if fact, it was the very first cat blog that we ever visited. Our hearts go out to Dandelion's family at this very sad time.

FRIDAY FUN!

A big congratulations to Karl (The Cat Realm) and Ruis (Kattenpraat Catwalk) on their wedding day - yippee! Everyone here at the Kitty Hut wishes them all the best and many years of wedded bliss!

Things are still crazy here at the Kitty Hut. If Mommy doesn't stop being "swamped" soon, we are gonna start calling her Swamp Thing!! Humpf!

Happy Friday efurryone!

SUNDAY, SUNDAY

Hi Efurryone,

It has been another hectic week here at our house! We have some important items to catch up with on our bloggie today. First, we would like to say how sad we are to learn that Bonnie Underfoot has gone to the Rainbow Bridge. We know how much Bonnie's family loved her and how much she will be missed.

Also, we are sending out lots of purrs and prayers to little Billie over at Twilight's Muse. She is not feeling very well right now and we hope she gets better real soon!

On this Sunday, we are giving thanks for all of the special kitties and beans in the cat blogosphere. You are all wonderful. We are so happy and grateful to be a small part of this caring, vibrant community!

SILLY SATURDAY

ANGIE: Happy Saturday efurryone! I'm being silly in this picture while I'm sitting in the kitty condo. I like to squish myself way down inside the condo and then stick my paws out of the top to see if my Mommy will grab them!

We hope all beans and kitties have a great Saturday!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY S'MORE!

S'MORE: Today is my 9th birthday - woo hoo! Mommy says we will be celebrating tonight with lots of Fancy Feasties and Temptations - yippee! I can't wait!

We would also like to say a big thank you to our friends at Zoolatry for creating our new banner! We just love it!

TORTIE TUESDAY

S'MORE: Hi Efurryone! Today I would like to post about a "condition" that the v-e-t told my Mommy I have. It's called "stray cat syndrome". For a long time after my Mommy adopted me, I would gobble all my foods down really fast and then throw everything back up into my bowl! BLECH!!! Then I would look around the house for more foods to eat. Also, if Mommy would move my food bowls and placemat, I would get very upset and tell her all about it! I'm happy to report that I am MUCH better now, and will actually leave foods in my bowl. I guess I realized that Mommy was always going to feed me, love me and give me a happy home! Yay!

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Happy Mother's Day to all the Mommies in the cat blogosphere! This is another picture of our Mommy taken with Angeline a while back. Mommy says she hates her hair in this picture, but she can't do much about it. She says "it has a mind of it's own!" That's okay, mommy, our furs gots a mind of their own most days, too!

IT'S THE WEEKEND!

Hi Efurryone!
Yay - it's finally the weekend! We would like to apologize to our fellow bloggers for not posting much this week. We have been trying to get around and visit other bloggies, though. Mommy was swamped with work, meetings, car batteries dying, etc. She thinks things will be better next week. (We hope so!)

We hope efurryone has a wonderful and restful Saturday! We missed all of you!

TORTIE TUESDAY

S'MORE: Hi efurryone! For my Tortie Tuesday post today, I have a question for my fellow kitties: Do you like to give your beans kitty kissies? My mommy says I'm like a woofie 'acause I like to give her lots of kissies!

ROCKY & ANGIE: S'more, you're not like a woofie, you're just weird!

S'MORE: I am NOT weird..........

ROCKY & ANGIE: Are too.........

MOMMY: **Shaking head** Oh, brother!

SUNDAY SMILES

Hi Efurryone!

Here is a picture of our Mommy and Angie taken back in 2001. Angie was not happy during the photo shoot. She kept escaping away from Mommy and hiding behind the backdrop...hehehehe. Mommy says she wants to do this again, but with all three of us! We don't think so, Mommy!

SLEEPY SATURDAY REDUX

ROCKY: Mommy, you can read the grocery store paper, just as soon as I'm done with my nap. Hehehehe............

THANKFUL THURSDAY

Red rose has number of thorns in it

But life is great with God

Hello Efurryone!

We gotted another awardie! It's the Red Rose awardie from Simply Cats! We are so excited!!!! Also, our friends at Zoolatry were very gracious and included us in their "Wordy Wednesday" post!

We are really giving special thanks on this "Thankful Thursday" for all the wonderful beans and kitties who have helped make our first week with our very own blog so special! We loves you all very much!

P.S. An extra special thank-you goes to Not the Mama for helping our Mommy with widgets.....whatever those are. Mommy said they were making her crazy, but she thinks she's got them figured out now!

TORTIE TUESDAY!

Hi Everykitty!

It's me, S'more. I'm so glad my Mommy figured out how to upload pictures from her camera, so efurryone can get to meet us "face to face".

I made my Mommy crawl under the kitchen table to take these pictures of me...hehehehe. I wonder if that qualifies me to become a member of the TATA (Tough A** Torties Association)?

SASSY SUNDAY

Hi Efurryone ~ it's me Angie! First of all, I would like to thank Maggie and Zoey at Zoolatry for the wonderful award they gave us! It's our very first award in the cat blogosphere and we are soooooo excited!!

I look a little cranky in this picture 'acause I had a traumatic day yesterday! My Mommy tookded me to the v-e-t and they did all kinds of terrible things to me!

First, they trimmed my toenails. If that wasn't bad enough, then they violated my private area!! I got so upset, I had to have a "time out" in my kitty carrier until I calmed down. Boy, is my bum sore today!!! I'm gonna take it easy and relax today for sure!

We hope efurryone has a great Sunday!!

ROCKY, ANGIE, & S'MORE: A word to the wise Mommy ~ you better sleep with one eye open for a while - humphf!!

Thankful Thursday

Hi Efurryone!

For today's post we wanted to share some things that we are thankful for that will help you to get to know us better:

ROCKY:

I am thankful that Mommy adopted me ~ even after I whapped her on the face so hard her glasses flew off! And that was the first time we met! The second time she came to visit me, I put the bitey on her! I iz sorry Mommy - I wasn't very happy living at the v-e-t-'s office.

S'MORE:

I'm thankful for a comfy place to sleep and for always having foods in my tummy. Before my Mommy adopted me, I was thrown out into an apartment complex when my people moved. I was very scared and I didn't have foods for awhile. A nice lady founded me and took me to the v-e-t-'s office where I stayed for a long time. Then one day, after seeing me online, my Mommy came in to meet me. I curled up on her lap and started kissing her hand ~ we have been bestest friends ever since!

ANGIE:

Those are very nice stories, Rocky and S'more. Since I am a senior citizen, I am most thankful to be the queen bee of our house. This means I get to do crazy things like paw at the door on Mommy's metal file cabinet (which makes a loud, horrendous noise!) in the middle of the night so she will get up and give me Temptations...........hehehehehehe

Our Very First Post - Yippee!

Hi Efurryone!
Rocky, Angie, & S'more here ~ and this is our very first post in the cat blogosphere! WOO HOO! Our mommy felt so bad that we didn't have our very own blog, she finally decided to give this a try and start one up for us!

We hope everyone is having a good day ~ we was all in our normal sleeping spots when mommy left for work this morning ~ except for Angie, who walks mommy to the door each morning and sees her off to work!

We will post more shortly ~ as soon as mommy figures out how all this stuff works!
