Meet Miracle Boy!!!






Author: Momma

It was a very emotional day yesterday so I didn't get a chance to update the good news! After about 6 hours from the death of the two kittens, Belle decided to have one more kitten!! And this one seems to be doing well. He's all black with a tiny little bit of maybe 4 white hairs on the tip of his tail. He's about 24 hours old and has a very very loud voice! He lets Belle know when he's hungry and when he's cold.
Belle still insisted on trying to bring the kitten into the litterbox and I just didn't think it was a very sanitary or good place to nurse him. So I took him out of the litterbox and in with some towels. Belle instantly went and got him and put him back in the litterbox! So I took the lid off the litterbox, and put it on top of the towels. That seems to be what she wanted. She wanted a roof over her and the baby!

I am concerned though as its been 24 hours since the birth of her last baby and she still has some discharge. I don't remember this with the other momma cats I've fostered. Should I take her into the vet? She doesn't seem to be in any physical discomfort, but its still gross and not very hygenic I would think.

Ugly Kittens finally arrive!!



Author: Napoleon

Here I was a plannings on being a good uncle kitteh, but geesh thems some ugly alien hatchlings my sista Belle had today! Wowies thems needs some kinda of special lovings, cause not even Belle will go nears the big pink one. I really is interested in her telling us all how that set of twin aliens happened? She keeps insistings it was a normal run of the mill tomcat, but we has photographic proofs now that this was some weird alien hibreed or somefing!!

naaaahhh...its just APRIL FOOLS!!! we still has no kittens as of 10pm april 1st. Momma is getting frustrated and poor Belle is really funny to watch when she twys to groom herself..hehehe. Its so funny cause she ends up rolling to the side instead and then she gets this funny look on her face and pretends taht she meanted to do that.

Everyday in this so called "Spring"....




Author: Momma

Its snowed each morning for the last 4 days...its really weird!

No kittens yet, poor belle is very big and the babies are really active. If I put my hand on her belly, I can feel their little heads and sometimes their little paws moving around. Its one of the weirdest things ever!!

More snow in March!



And a pregnancy update video



Author: Momma

Well, here it is thursday and no babies! Sigh!! Woke up this fine day to see a light dusting of snow, kind of a surprise for Oregon in March. If you look at the first picture you can see my freshly planted rose bushes amidst the snow dusting. I hope they'll do ok. The stores around here only sell roses in the last week of Febuary and in March, so you have to buy the plants when they are available and get them into good soil asap so they can grow beautiful roses their first year. Otherwise you have to pamper them,wait, and hope that they do better their second year.

I love roses, and when I first moved here I dug up a couple of bushes I had planted at my apartment. I brought 4 all together and sadly the first year 2 didn't make it. I had a purple rose that bloomed a few times last year and the other rose bush never made buds. So I know for a fact that I had 2 reds, a yellow and purple rosebush. I know that the purple one survived, but I have no idea what color the other bush was. I plan on getting some good quality rose food this first week of April and fertilizing the two older plants.

The 4 new roses I planted, I put in soil that was already fertilized. See the soil around here is almost completly clay. weee! So if you want anything to grow you must first dig a huge hole and throw away all the clay. Then you fill the hole about 3/4 full of good quality potting soil. Making sure to pat the soil up the sides of the hole. Then you can finally put the new plant in the hole, fill in with the rest of the soil, add the barkdust so it blends with the rest of the yard, and water. And hope you did enough...lol.

This year, I've bought 2 reds and I think two yellows, or at least one yellow and maybe a white. It doesn't really matter the color, I just love gardening and roses and flowers are so beautiful.

Sigh, too much kitten anxiety...I can't seem to remeber anything but the kittens to come. So I'm going to head off for now, I'll update as soon as those little darlings make their debut into the world.

What?? Nothing going on here!




Author: Belle

Nope, its Monday and still no bebbehs. I am getting mighty tired of all the running around they is doing in my tummy, but from what I understand about kittens they have to hatch at their own speed. In that picture, you might think there is kittens, but no, thats just the paws and big belly of my brother, Hunter. Totally fooled you for a second though! lol

Momma really had hoped for the kittens on easter, but since I got out 3 different times there's no real way to count the days since I met my special tom. I am getting very round and yes, my hips are sticking out and I waddle a little bit. My milk glands are getting more swollen everyday and the kittens are very very active inside my tumtum. But they aren't listening to Momma who keeps telling them to come on out and play!
The other interesting thing is that my kitty momma was a part siamese but I am a tuxie girl. The toms that are in the neighborhood are a siamese (full), a siamese mix, a grey and white one, a black manx, and a tiger striped tom. Those are just the ones that we have for sure seen in our front yard. So what kind of kittens I hatch out are going to be a big surprise! Momma has her fingers crossed on a siamese mix, but I personally think I shall only have tuxies or black panther kittehs. hehe Momma thinks I shall have 2-3 kittens, but I plan on surprising her with at least 4. Everything that momma is thinking I is gonna try and mess up, cause well...a girl has to has some mystery and surprises in her life! lol

Author: Momma

Normally I am an easy going kind of person who deeply cares for my friends, my pets, and my family. I try to not let too many things bother me or offend me and I try to respect many different people and their many different views. However, I have been going to Wozog and doing their Cat idol and now Cat Apprentice contest and inbetween rounds of the contest the owner of the site put up a post that I feel was offensive and demeaning to overweight women. Women and men that are art models have alot of guts to pose for immature college jerks in addition to actual real artists. Showing their entire body to further the development of art. Its a serious and wonderful practice. However, this particular story that was put on Wozog may or may not be real, I still find it incredibly offensive. I asked the Wozog editor to remove it, he declined and told me I was taking it too seriously and it was "just a story".
I am asking my pets be removed from all future contests on that site and I don't plan on visiting it again.
Here is a link to the post that has the story on it.Wozog

Read it for yourself, let me know if you think I'm overreacting or if its time to stand up for respect and maturity for all people?
I ask you not to write horrible comments or do anything immature, rather if you agree with me about this story, please comment on the wozog blog and let the editor know that degrading people for fun isn't acceptable and definitly isn't the way to build a good blog readerlist.


Thanks for reading my rant, back to the kittys on Monday, unless the kittens come before then. I'll include pictures as soon as they arrive.

Special

Napoleon loves the snow, but only if he's safe inside!!

One of these kittehs is pregnant


(click to biggify)


Author:Napoleon
In that picture, my brofur and my sista is cuddling. Of course, those of yous who read here regularly know which is which. However, those who don't knows us berry well will has to wonder wich of those is prego! My brofur Hunter is all being like "wwaaa, I is not fat, I is not prego, I is a studdly mancat" but when randoms beans and kittehs is asked...they fink the all black kitty is the one that is gonna has kittens! hehehehe

Oh and for the records I was not sulking in my kitty penthouse. I was meerly resting up for the next contest on Wozog. The contest is now called Cat apprentice. The goal is to NOT have very many votes. So I is asking you all to go to wozog and vote for the lamest kitteh there and vote them off so I can be the cat pretince.
Fanks!!

PS, we is taking guessings on when Belle will hatch her alien offspring. There be no prize money or fabo stuff cause Momma has spented alot of money preparing for the aliens...however, Momma will dedicate a special post to whomever wins. You has to leave a date and time you think the kitten hatching will occur ( incase of a two people saying the same day, the tie will be settled by the time) You must guess before the date the aliens arrive,which could be any day or 2 squillion weeks from now so get your guess in!!!!

Kitty Condo? I don't think so!




Author: Hunter

You nose when Momma said I could has mondays to blog. I thoughts, well maybee sometimes I wood and soemtimes I woodn'ts be bloggin. And frankly I has gotten laziers, so it hasn't bothered me too much. But its been a squillion years since I hads my last blog post!!

Anyways, In thats foto you can see that it is NOT a kitteh condo! It only has a penthouse and the second floor has no walls! And of course the floor on this so called semi-luxery condo isn't nearly wide enough for my needs. I can'ts exactly fit in the penthouse and well I'm not too keen on fightings Napoleon for it neither. He's still sulkin causn he losted the wozog contest. Says he wont come out till he is declared purtyiest kitteh in the world or somefing likes that.

Oh, Momma wanted me to lets you all know about Belle. Its kinda funny I guess, but since Greatgrandma isn't to good wif her eyes and can't tells the difference between an all black kitty (like me) and a black kitty wif white paws and markings (like Belle) Great keeps finking I is the one who is prego! oh k, wait..thats not funny! She finks I is fat! I is a musclularly studmuffin and is not fats in any way. The scale lies I do not weigh 11 pounds!!
So back to Belle who is definelty prego. Momma is finking based on the size of Belle and the recent definete confirmed movements of the alien hatchlings (hehe)that miss mommy to be is probablys gonna has them on Easter which is exactlys 6 days from now. Of coursen as each day comes and goes, Momma is gonna be feeling and petting up Belle's tumtum and checking to make sure she is doing ok. Ever since Momma first suspected that the stumpet, I mean Belle, got it on wif the local tomcat she has been putting out extra foods.

Now we all eat from the same bowl, so of course I has been helping myself to the extra available yum yums. And as soon as Momma thoughts that Belle was prego she switched from our normal kitty food to a mix with kitten chow and adult formula. As the weeks has gone by, Momma has gradually phased in more kitten foods and included some scrumpshish wet food. Its a premuim wet food, wif real actuall fishy in it! Mackeral, tuna, salmon ect...oh yes, I hope that it never stops!! Course, Momma says as soon as Belle is ready for the hatchlings she will be moved into a special room and her special food will goes wif her! Sighs. I thinks though that for my super sensitive (hehe, wink wink) tummy I should have a gradual phase out of the yummy kitten chow and the scrumpshish wet delightfuls food. Or I may has to announce wif much hurling and hacking up of the normal nutrious but not nearly so delious kitty food, untils I gets my way ;)

Blanket Update


Author: Momma

Well, as you can see I've finally got back to working on the blanket and its proceeding at a somewhat good pace. I'm still hoping to finish it by working 1-2 hours a day for the next week. Fingers crossed and it should be done by next sunday. I've made a really big blanket years ago, and it took about 8 hours a day for 4-5 days a week and was done in about 2 months. This one will be much smaller. I just want it big enough to tuck around your feet and about up to your waist in a sitting position.

About Belle and the bumps... I think I've seen the bumps move, but its not a steady movement so its hard to tell for sure. Mostly there is something like a twitch or a rapid wave across her belly. I've been a foster mom to a few pregnant cats before and even hand reared a litter after their mum died. So, I'm somewhat knowledgable...however, its always harder when you don't know the conceptition date because you just have to guesstimate when she should be moved to an isolated area. I'm hoping she won't decide to have them during the middle of the night or under one of the beds.
My first experience with a litter (as an adult) was with my oldest cat, Empress Tao. She was under the bed and let out this unholy YEOWL. I called to her and she jumped up on the bed. Then she climbed in my lap and began to move her back legs back and forth and then....there was a big disgusting bubble at her back end! EWW the miracle of life is disgusting! lol. I got her into the bathroom, got a towel and let her get comfy. She ended up nesting the towel inbetween my legs and using my thighs as a pushing platform. It was a very intense and emotional experience for me. She had three adorable babies that grew into wonderful loving companions for their forever homes.
I'm looking forward to this new miracle, but at the same time I'm apprehinsive because I'll have to keep myself from getting attached to any of the bumps. I have enough kittys as it is! lol. And as soon as Belle is done nursing them, its off to the vet for a little ladygardenectomy!!!!

I is getting rounder




author:Belle

Well its been a while since I,the great and beautiful Belle, has gotten a chance to blog! My brother has been soooo obsessed about the wozog cat idol contest! So I haven't had a chance to spill the beans to all the beans. (hehe) After many escapes aided by my sometimes clueless bean greatgrandma and once even by Momma, well I met a few random toms...and you can fill in the rest.

Mine tummy is getting rounder, the "pinking up" has occured, yup, I is gonna be hatching some kittens soon. So far Momma hasn't ever seen the kittens move, and well since I was let out on 3 different occasions there is no way to say for sure when I am due.

Momma is planning on preparing the MasterBath and putting food, bedding, litterbox and toys in there and confining me so I have the kittens in a good safe and easily cleaned area. She thinks that when my milk drops down, then she will have a day or two warning and will be able to convince me to waddle into that room voluntarily. HA! I plan on having my babies where I want! Perhaps in some hard to reach area of the house on the brand new carpet in the middle of the night. Yup. Thats my plan.
hehehe

I need a snuggles!


Author: Napoleon

Oh the shame, oh the sadness, oh the humiliation!! I, the most beautifulest of all meezers in the whole wide worldth has lost! I was not in last place most of yesterday and then booms! I getted lost at the last minute. My sister, Raowr, is cuddling up wif me...but Hunter is sayings I be a big baby now.

I say "NO! is not fair, no no no! I is the cutest! I should has won!!" that is totally not being a baby, that is being a spoiled rotten meezer mancat. ;) And really...I lost to some kittehs who are not nearly as cute as me! I just wasn't getting enough people to go to the site and vote. I don't know who momma is gonna vote for now on there, cause we don't know any of thems and we don't thinks they is nearly as cute as ME!!!!!
SIGHS! Oh k, I guessing its back to being a proud step-father to my darling Isis's new litter of ittle bittle kittehs. Just cause I isn't a predigree, and lost my dangly bits doesn't mean I can't be a father...I just has to be a step-father is all. So I gots 3 good looking boy babys and a darling little girl baybee. And their Momma is doing great! She's so purty! She totally would have won if she hadn't been sooo ummm round and preoccupied wif the little'ns ...well, and she didn't enter that contest...so I'm guessing thats why she didn't wins neither.
I is gonna do some serious posing and get Momma to reenter me in the next times they has a contest. I'm a guessing since no one could see's my beautifuls blue eyes...they couldn't vote. I can't help it, when Momma rubbs my ears and my face I just close my eyes and go ppppuuuuuurrrrssss.

Sunday Blanket Update


Author: Momma

Well another week has gone by and the blanket is getting bigger. I'll show you a picture from 2 weeks ago. You can see the blanket is finally large enough for Napoleon to really spread out. Soon you won't be able to see the rug underneath! lol
I'm estimated/guestimating that the blanket should be done in 1-2 more weeks. I could have finished in only 2 weeks if I was just making it for a kitty, but for a human...it needs to be a bit bigger.



Here's the update from www.wozog.com
Napoleon has made it past the first round of voting, thank you all who voted!!! Don't forget to keep coming back to that site everyday!! Napoleon is very vain and you mights hurt his feelings!

Some information about Wozog.com 's Cat Idol Contest:

How does Cat Idol work?

There will be lets say 24 cat pictures up. But you can only vote for one. After 24 hours the cat with the least amount of fan votes will be eliminated. So then there will be 23 cats. The voting starts ALL over again. Previous votes do no go over to the next round. As long as your cat does not get the least amount of votes, he or she is safe. This will go on until only one cat is left standing

This means everyday you must must must go and vote for my baby Napoleon...or else I will have to suffer! Please save the MOMMA!!!!

Meezer Rule:
If you is gonna do something naughty, remember to look adorable. Beans can't resist a meezer face full of cuteness.

Momma has forgivens me and my brethern for the destruction of the bowls and now she is back to giving us good pets and scritches. I knew my plan would work, it just took longer then planned.
See I wanted to see what was up on the fridge, but there was stuff up there in my way. So I carefully waited till there was a time when no one would stop me...ie...the beans were gone. Then I climbed up there, but firsted I had to drop everything that was in my way...so the bowls and stuff came of the fridge magically. And of course, the magic didn't work right...so the bowls all felled down on the ground. OOOPSS. Anyway, at least they was out of my way and I was able to FINALLY get up on the fridge. Turns out, once you get rid of the bowls and stuff up there...its not that interesting. But anyway, that all happened last week, and the plan was that Momma was suppose to forgive me instantly cause I is super duper cute! Well, thats the part of the plan that didn't work so well. Oh she feds us and stuff, but she wasn't all lovey dovery wif me. SIGHS!! I had to work overtime that night and really put the cuteness out there. Inluding my patented Meezer Meowl, and the all night purr fest. I won her over...I tolds her resistence is futile. I shall always win!! I is the cutest!!!

Blanket is getting bigger





Author: Momma

I almost forgot to put the updated photo of my blanket on for today! Been busy, so not much time to chat. However, its progressing so quickly I think I might run out yarn! I'm out of cash at the moment, so if I run out of yarn I'll have to post a picture of it and let you all know when I get another chance to start working on it again.
As you can tell, everytime I lay the blanket down to take a photo of it...one of the cats attempt to claim it! This time Belle is making her statement of interest! On a side note, I do belive she is pregnant since her belly is starting to get firmer. I think she is probably 20-30 days into it. No way to know for sure until we get about 10-15 more days into it, then I'll be able to pinpoint a delivery date. I really wish that Greatgrandma hadn't let her out of the house, since Belle did have an appointment for a spay 2 weeks ago. But since she is pregnant, now I'll have to wait till after the babies are born and weaned before I can get her spayed. I will keep you all up to date on that as well. Have to run. Thanks for stopping in!!

I am not FAT!!





Author: Belle

I don't know why everyone is obsessed with my tum-tum. Momma says she doesn't think its as squishy and it might be getting big. Ummm, no...I'm not fat or squishy...I'm just ummm, well rounded.

Oh, for everyone who asked...no, those bowls that got broke weren't precious. They weren't too expensive, but Momma was still very very upset! She found out that the big big big plastic bowl that fell, is also cracked and broken. She sighed, but she didn't say anything to us. We is worried, that might mean she is gonna think really hard before she tells us exactly how naughty we are. Or it could mean she finally learned that it doesn't matter how many times you tell us "no" and "bad kitteh!" because we are just gonna do whatever we want anyway.

And btw, I totally had nothing to do with the bowls. It was all Napoleon. But he thinks since there were no witnesses, he can spread the blame to all four of us.

Feb 20, 2008

We has been bad!!

And a closer up picture of the naughtyness!




Author: Napoleon

I feel that I is not wholy responsible for the mess and mistchief that has occured, so I is saying "we" is the ones that dids this. Course it truely is a record amount of damage to punish our Momma, one that we thinks HRH Yao-Lin would definetly approve.
What happened you ask? Well Momma and Great went away on Monday afternoon. They left us alone all afternoon and did not come home till Tuesday late morning!! Momma says its cause she had to take Grandma to the airport at an unmentionable time in the morning so they went and stayed overnight. Well, its all her fault. She left us alone! So we decided to get up to a naughty place and nevermind what was in our way! Momma stores bowls and plastic containers on top of the fridgerator. We wanted to get up there and since there was no beans to say "no" we did. Course everything fells down and broked all over the place. OOOOhhhh Momma was mad!!!!!!
She had to get up at 645am and then drive 1 and 1/2 hours to the pick up all the aunties and takes them to the airport. Then she had to drive an 1 and 1/2 hours back to Grandma's house to trade cars (momma's isn't big enough for 5 beans). Then Momma had to drive another hour out to our house. So by the time she got homes, she was exhausted and the day was just really getting started. Cause now, she had to clean up our mess, refill our water and food bowls and and....well, I hopes she learned her lesson and never never leaves us alones again!!

PS
Here is the latest photo of the blanket



Momma says its not getting big as fast as it was and the changes aren't as dramatic at this point as they were when you first starts it. Now she will post every Sunday and you can see each week till its done.

Feb 17, 2008

As you can see the blanket no longer fits on the tv tray



So, I put it on the floor where Napoleon immediately layed claws on it!



In the final photo, Napoleon trys to lay claim to the blanket.



Author: Momma

Now I say that Napoleon tried to lay claim to it, because to be fair I told all the kittys this blanket was not for them when I first started making it. Its suppose to be for GreatGrandma if I just get working on it again. Have to shove a rather large furry blob off of it first...lol.

Just a quick note, I probably won't have a post here on Monday since we are going out of town tomorrow afternoon. Napoleon will post his regular post again on Wednesday.

Happy Valentines Days Momma to be Isis!

Since you is living all the way across the pond, it might already be nighty time and you might not see this till morning! I is soooo sorry!

THis is what would happens if I could do it, I totally woulds!

I step out of the limoseny and run up the walkway. I meowrl out and lets my Queen Isis know that I has arrived! I bringed a bouquet of NIP flowers!

Nip flowers!!



Isis, you has to go easy on thats for now cause of the walnuts and bumps that is growing in your tum-tum.
I leads Isis to our waiting Limo, it has lots of yummy green plants to play wif while we wait to arrive at our destination. We roll arounds and we are naughty cause we scratch the upholstery, but its ok...I paid an extra deposit, so its covered!

Then we arrive at the Kitty Cat Buffet! There is all the bestest of foodies that any cat could ever want to eat! I pay wif my Mastercat and we are escorted to the best table in the whole place. They is a nice little bowl wif swimming snacks, but I can see that my sweetie is wanting to has the bestest food and she needs lots of it so the peanuts insides her tum-tum can grow up big and strong! We browse through the light nip garden

More Yummy NIP!!!!


And then hit the payload wif salmon, tuna, and beef wif yummy yummy gravys! Oh and there is shrimps, lobsters, and every kind of temptations!!!

Salmons!!!




After awhiles I signals the head waiters and they bring over a special cake that is made wif the face of my beloved Isis on it! Its just for us and as I cut into the cake, there is a little box insides! It has a beautifuls diamond neckolace for my sweetheart.

Look, more swimmings snacks!!



Author: Napoleon

Ah yes, Momma has boughted more swimming snacks. They is very fast and its super hard to get a photo of thems. She actually boughted 5 of thems and two mysteriously stopped swimming within just days of each other. Then Momma cruelly put a piece of wood over the opening at the back of the tank. Sighs, they are soooo yummy...why did she block the access to our snack bowl??

As promised an Updated photo of the blanket



Momma is include an updated photo of her blanket she is making for Great. We finks it will be great for us to sits on and lays on. We loves to play wif the string when Momma is crocheting. She doesn't has the calluses she use to have, so she can only corchet for maybe an hour at a time. But its getting big super fast. It always goes fast at the beginings, but when it gets really really big it can take up to an hour to go one time around it!! Thats a tv tray pretty soon the blanket won't fit on it so she will have to put it on the floor to take a photo...thats when we make our move and claim it as ours! hehehehe

Feb 11, 2008

Please go to My photo blog for todays video.

Feb. 9, 2008

This is after about 2 hours of crocheting



This is about an hour maybe an hour and half later






Author: Momma
I just wanted to share this with you all. After 2 days and countless false starts, I finally remembered how to start the blanket! And I was right, once you do the start part...the rest is super duper easy. Its the first 4 main support stitches that require something slightly different. The rest just falls into place after that!! YEAH!!

It goes fairly fast once you get the hang of it, and you redevelop the calluses and the desensitivity to the pain in your fingers. lol I'll try to post every sunday at least one photo of the blanket as it grows. Right now there will be rather dramatic differences every day so I might update on the tail end of wednesday and then again on sunday. :)


To be honest though, its a good thing this is for just fun and to have an extra blanket...cause there are an awful lot of um "loose" interpretations when it comes to the exact stitch count.

I is contented





Momma made somethings funny looking...


Author: Raowr

Abouts those bluey things, Momma was trying to make something square, but she ended up making something round. So she gotted frustrated and finally just closed up the top and added a tail to it. I is contented cause now I has two homemade toys! I guessed that Momma was trying to remember how to make a blanket. She use to make them, she maded one 10 years ago for Grandma and she knows how to do it...but the problem is its different when you first start it. Once you has it going, it just gets super duper easy. But that first time around you has to do it a certain way and Momma can'ts remember how! Sads for Momma but happys for me! She boughts two things of blue and two things of purple yarn to make the start of a lap blanket for GreatGrandma, but now that she can't figure out how to start it...I might get a ton of funny looking kitty toys. I don't mind!

As you can see in this photo, lately we hasn't felt like doing a whole lots of nothing. Maybe its the winter drearyness finally crushing our little sun loving kitty selves? Oh, yeah, we get an occasional sunbreak...and we all make sure to be in our favorite room to catch those random spots of sun...but its not the same as a warm sunny spring day. Sigh! I was just a wee tot whens it was spring/summer time, but I remember it...I wants the sunshine and the fresh airs!

Oh forgotted to mention, this room is Great Grandma's room, formally the forbidden room. Its the sunnyist room in the whole house and we all love to lay on the quilt and the down comfortor. We hasn't figured how to get the birdies out of the comfortor, and they is awful quiet...but we can smells them in there. Ah well, we has to relax in the comfort, its too cold out to make a fuss. We also don't know why this room use to be forbiddens to us, I finks its cause thats where Momma use to keep the sunloving planties....the ones wif the delectables leaves that dangle like great giant green toys and snacks! Nows that we is allowed in that room, the plants have moved to anofer room, but its not nearly as sunny in theres and they isn't doing as well. Even the plants are wishings for spring!!

Since my brofur Napoleon and I are two swinging and hip nuetered kittehs, we've been allowed to go outside for brief periods of time. We wanted to go out tonight, this is what we saw......



BRRRRRRRRRRRRR, I finks even the plants be cold!!



Just incase your wondering our big outdoor sista, Empress Tao, and our big outdoor brofur, Ceasar, are doing just fine. They have a big blue blankie and they has an extra box wif another blankie in it. I is jealous of that blue soft blankie, I fink it needs to come back inside so I can snuggle it some mores, but then my outdoor fambily mights get cold, I guess they can keeps it awhile longer.

Sometimes our sista and brofur share their warmth, sometimes they is in different boxes, like tonight....

Ceasar, my meezer big brofur
