Finking Friday...

The first thing I have been finking about is what wonderful friends I have here! I greatly appreciate all the purrs for my Grammy and Grandpurr in Calgary... Mummy says that Grandpurr's friends have been taking him out to lunch most days, which saves him from having to try and cook much - which in turn saves him from having to eat his own creations! ;) It seems he has less skill in the kitchen than Daddy and Daddy once cooked a frozen pizza with it's wrapper still on it, so you see my worried are quite valid! ;) However Grammy has now had the biopsy taken (so that means they must have her bloodwork looking ok) and we are just waiting for the results. Mummy refers to it as being in limbo, but as far as I can tell there are no low poles to squerm under... Do beans really know what they're saying at times like these? ;)

Secondly I'd like to thank Tama-Chan and Tommy for my lovely award! :) Isis is thrilled with her's too and together we have decided that they should be passed on to our dear Miss Peach and to T'Abby Normal & Stygia who have all helped Isis face the sudden loss of her beloved Sen-Chan. We are so grateful that he lived long enough to know that she was expecting and are sure that he'll be watching over Isis and the kittens when they arrive in just about 3 weeks time now, along with their father Solo's dearly departed friend the lovely Magnificat, whom D'Boy was exceptionally fond of...

Now I fink I will go and snuggle with 'sis on Mummy's bed for a bit as it's all grey and rainy outside and there are no birdies and squirrels to watch. I fink they too must be snuggled away somewhere safe and warm... :)

Two Aby's Tuesday...

We've had a nice few days with Dad home with My Mummy, he's just got a few days to work this week and then he's off again for over a week! :) Heck even Tigmut'hep is starting to cheer up as it's only one front paw and one back paw's claws until his boy comes home! ;) In fact he's been in such a good mood since yesterday morning when he found out it was just two paws worth of claws until he got his boy back that he joined in our game of "Herd of Thundering Elephants", what's even more impressive was his go at "Running as if you had a Firecracker up your Bottom", you know the run with your tail high in the air where your bottom almost overtakes your front and you kind of run sideways as well as forwards - well Isis and I are pretty much experts at this when the mood takes us, but we'd never seen Tigmut'hep attempt it. He's very good at it for a beginner, I must say! ;)
It was also a nice surprise to see that both Isis and myself had been given this lovely award by TT's family. Sorry we've not been around much, and for that matter won't be for another week or two. We do try and read our friends Blogs each day, but when you're busy snoopervising painting and decorating it's not all that easy... Plus as some of you know Isis will be meeting Yao-lin's slave this Saturday to see if his tales of suffering are really true. If they are I think the combined forces of the BritBlog Kitties should mount a rescue operation, to save him from the extreem levels of suffering he has to face on a daily basis! We do so worry about him, though seeing as Tigmut'hep is at least in spirit a meezer, we do occasionally think he might be exagerating a little! ;) Anyway Isis will perform a through investigation of the situation in just a few days time and make sure that if his slave is really as unfit for service as he says that the approperate authorities cart her off... ;)

So you see we are all very busy around here and about to do a big service for worried Kitty Bloggers everywhere! Once that's dealt with we'll be back to snoopervising the decoration of two of our favourite rooms in the house, yes the kitchen and the dinning room - those vital rooms where food is prepared and served. So paws crossed that the weather is good as our litter boxes will have to go out into the cat run during much of the time the renovations are going on and I do so hate icky wet fur and rain!

Oh well back off to My Mummy's bed for cuddle with those I love most. Having just heard of the loss of sweet baby Violette I feel a little bit of family together time is needed. Never take those you love for granted, shower them in fur every day, so they always know that they are loved deeply...

Belated Mancat Monday

Well this is the last picture of Isis son's all together. From left to right, you can see Django, Dandy and Dizzy. It's certainly a little quieter around here with out Dizzy, but Mummy's been busy with paperwork so I guess she's pleased it's quieter so she can get it all done... Just today and 2 more full days here and Django goes to his new home too. It'll be a lot quieter after that I bet! This is defiantly a good thing as Mummy's explained to me that I have to babysit Delta and Dandy on Saturday with some help from Tigmut'hep... Yer right Mummy Tigmut'hep probably needs more babysitting than the kittens do! Honestly you'd think she'd know that by now... ;)

My sweet friend Storm, (the most beautiful Siamese cat in the World) has given me a lovely award and called me handsome too! Yes, I bet you can all see that I'm still blushing in this photo of me helping Mummy make the bed this morning... ;) You see she's got a new bedspread and it needs a lot of attention to make it just right and I'm the mancat for the job as you all know! I'm a bed specialist and can kneed and burrow with the best of them... ;)

Things on Thursday...

This award was originally created by Tesla who said "I award this to every cat that defends its fortress and castle against evil!"

I was given it by Adan and Lego for being such a good Uncle to Isis' kittens! :) Isn't that wonderful, getting award for doing something I love... It doesn't get much better than that!

It also doesn't get much better than my dear friend Miss Peach! So I'm passing the award on to her for making the blogsphere a better place for all us cats... :)

Please note my new Voki and leave your offerings of chicken in the bowl provided! Well a mancat can but try... ;)

Super Sunday!

Well My Mummy had a lady over to visit us yesterday and that was nice as she kept saying I was beautiful and so was Isis! :) I do so like it when intelligent humans visit, you know the sort that see just how beautiful you really are... I have no interest in non-cat people, I'm sure there's something not quite right about them... ;)

Mummy abandoned us again to go to a feline genetics lecture last night... But she made up forMy Mummy then abandoned us all for a squillion and 5 hrs to go see a cat show locally... Though I'm not complaining cause she came home with a Zoom Groom! :) Isis and I now know the ecstasy those little rubbery fingers cause, you bet we'll be asking for more! ;) Though My this by having a long fussing session with me in bed both last night and this morning! ;)

I've not let My Mummy out of my sight all day, so she can't sneak off again! ;) What's even better is I hear she's cooking chicken tonight, so I shall be keeping an even closer eye on her then... Well a chicken lovers like myself has to think of his belly at certain times! ;)

The thing that really made my day today was getting this award from TT:
Firstly, I'd like to pass this award on to My Marie, cause she inspires much love and a good number of urges... ;)

Secondly, I'd like to pass it on to Skeezix as he was not only very brave in plucking up the courage to ask Daisy to go steady last week, but he makes Mancats everywhere less shy about talking about their urges... ;)

Lastly I'd like to pass it to the wonderful, one and only Miss Peach! Her zest for life as well as her love and kindness have touched so many hearts... Long may she continue doing so! :)

Finking Friday...

Well it's been a good week for finking round here! What with making a Valentines for My Marie and hearing about the freezing cold weather they're having in Calgary at this moment - well as you might be able to guess, I'z been thinking a lot about My Marie and snuggling in warm places! ;)

My Grandpur in Calgary finally gotted his 80th Birthday present, and there'd been me finking that the postlady must have eaten it or losted it... :( But finally it arrived and he loved what we gotted him! :) He's hadded a rotten, bad, yucky, stinking cold from the deepest depths of somewhere nasty all over KissMouse and New Years, so My Mummy was very glad to hear he's starting to improve... She's been worrying herself half daft! Dad says that's easy for her to do for some reason I can't quite make out, but he always giggles when he says it so I fink he's being naughty! ;)

It's been a little cold here for the past few nights, so I finked it was better to snuggle under the blankets with My Mummy and Dad! Oh boy was I right, it was so toasty and warm there - which of course made me fink more about My Marie freezing her beautiful little paws off in Canada... For some reason when I finked about her as I slept, I'z got even warmer! By morning My Mummy said I was like a little red hot inferno - Oh yes a red hot inferno of love! ;)

The other thing I'z gotta fink about and be very thankful for is my good friends at Chat Aux Sphynx, Dragonheart and his cute little brother Merlin gave me this lovely award! :)

I'd like to take this opportunity to pass it on to the prettiest little white kitty ever created, My Marie! :) In addition to My Marie, I'd like to pass it along to that evil genius, the only cat I know with his very own Island - HRH Yao-Lin. Lastly but by no means leastly I fink I'll pass it to the only other Abyssinian I know that blogs and isn't related to me, the lovely TT! :)

Finking Friday and lots more...

Well I'z gotted lots to fink about this Friday for sure! Firstly I'z gotted another lovely award, this time from Black Cat - cause I'z make her day! :) That's so nice to know and I'z very honoured...


Then Adan gotted me to fink about the meaning of my name and look that it all means:


You are wild, crazy, and a huge rebel. You're always up to something.
You have a ton of energy, and most people can't handle you. You're very intense.
You definitely are a handful, and you're likely to get in trouble. But your kind of trouble is a lot of fun.

You are usually the best at everything ... you strive for perfection.
You are confident, authoritative, and aggressive.
You have the classic "Type A" personality.

You are confident, self assured, and capable. You are not easily intimidated.
You master any and all skills easily. You don't have to work hard for what you want.
You make your life out to be exactly how you want it. And you'll knock down anyone who gets in your way!

You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong.
You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know.
You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do.

You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone.
You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together.
At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.

What's Your Name's Hidden Meaning?

I'z purrty sure they'z gotted most of it right, though I'z not that confident iffen I'z not gotted My Mummy around... I'z go all scardy puss iffen she's not around all the time, though I'z not so bad since My Mummy boughted me Isis! :) Oh and the love of a good Ladycat has helped me too, which is why I'z not only fink, but know that My Marie is totally wonderful! :)

With all of dis in mind I'd like to pass on the You Make My Day Award to the following 10 kitties, who always make me purr:

My Marie - She always makes my day, 'cause she loves me! :)

HRH Yao-Lin - His evil genius is quite awesome!

Daisy - Her sense of fashion is outstanding!

Miss Peach - Her ability to love and care for everyone is inspirational!

Caesar & Princess - They both show that growing older is not something to worry about!

Chase - All I can say is Wow that's one brave cat!

Skeezix - His love for Mao inspired me to snuggle with Tigmut'hep for the first time in ages!

Kimo & Sabi - For their recent show of brotherly love as well as their blurpy girl love!

This is such a sweet Award, especially as I'z got it from My Sweety Marie! :) I'z want to award it as a part of Thursday 13 this week - well that way I'z get to pass on a whole lotta love to lotsa kitties!

Belated Finking...

Well this week I'z did so much finking on Friday that I forgotted to blog about it... Well I'z had been reading My Mummy's kitty pregnancy book with her and so was doing some really hard finking about becoming an Uncle! :)

I'z been readin' all about what sort of food Isis should eat to help her percolate good healthy kittens. It seems a queen needs about 400 calories a day, or about twice as much as a normal kitty her size! Iffen you'z fink that's impressive she'll be demanding close to 1,000 calories a day once d'kittens are born and she's lactating... Dat's more like the sort of level of nutrition that d'boy requires and he eats loads! My Mummy weighed Isis dis morning to see iffen she'd put back on d'weight she lost while at Stud and it seems that she has even though she was very moody about her dinners all last week... Though for d'past 2 days she's been eating like a big piggy Tigmut'hep! ;) Heck dis morning she almost climbed My Mummy askin for her breakfast - before dat she's tried to make breakfast outta My Mummy's toes by putting d'bitey on them... So Isis is back to 3.2Kg and iffen she's got a belly full of kittens they'd be about the size of ickle peas at dis moment. By the time she's due to "pink up" (about 15-18 days time) they'd be about the size of hazlenuts! :) So you'z can see I'z had lots to fink about... Oh and d'books gotted lovely pictures of kitten development and all that, I'z lick d'pictures best of all, they'z easier to understand than all d'writing! ;)

So I'z very happy to have been awarded the Thinking Blogger Award, bestowed upon me by HRH Yao-Lin

Last but by no means least we'z wanna remind you all to purr for Mao and Annie who's both gone missin' and are making their beans very worried and sad...

Thankful and Thumpin' Thursday... ;)

First of all before I'z get to the thumpin' I'd like to deal with the thankful bit! ;) Thanks to Shadow and Molly for giving me a fantastic new award, it's really made my day to be able to share it with some of my fave friends! :)


This award was created by Colin and the only rule for this award seems to be that you link back to Colin as the point of origin of the award.

I woulds likes to give this too:

My Marie - Calgary, Canada

Baby Mao - Isle of Wight (aka Yao-Lin's Island), UK

Napoleon - Oregon, USA

Miss Peach (on her 15th Birthday!) - Washington, USA

Well now I'z finished being thankful I'z can get back to the thumpin'! ;) I'z just finished a really good game of thump and run with Tigmut'hep and Isis! :) Though My Mummy has taken the time to point out the fact I'z not supposed to bop my 'sis too hard on account of her peculating kittens... So I'z tolded My Mummy that I'z getting in all the bopping I'z going to want to do for a bit before Isis starts looking all lumpy and bumpy and full of kittens! Apparently that's not what My Mummy meant for me to do, so I'z just going to have to settle for bopping Tigmut'hep senseless - not that he's gotted much sense to start with! ;)

Apparently I'z also turning into an expert cover crawler and bed squirmer! It's good to know as I'z take pride in being able to wriggle my way between My Mummy and Dad at about 6am for a good hour or so's snuggle and warm up... In recent weeks I'z found I can dig my way beneath the covers and wriggle and head butt My Mummy just right to make her start cuddling me, but not fully wake up! Dis I might add is a very valuable life skill that I feel as a good Uncle I'z gotta teach all d'kittens in good time... ;)

Winning Wednesday!

Oh boy what a week this is turning out to be, I've been given yet another award! This one came from my furriends Mindy and Moe (aka Team Tabby), they're just the bestest... :)

Now you just know I've got to pass on this award to My Marie, 'cause she's just the most loveliest girlycat in all creation (yep, it's those urges again). As soon as I lay eyes on her I just wanna shower her in 'nip and snuggle her all day long! :)

I've also awarded it to Black-Cat 'cause I've never seen a Bobcat use a human litter box before! It's amazing what you can learn around here... :)

PS: Look out for my upcoming feature on the true benefits of Catnip to feline and humankind alike!

Sweet Treat Tuesday!

Wow I've got an award from my own, special Sweet Marie... She's such a wonderful girlfurriend, beautiful, talented, sweet natured, generous, kind, considerate, playful, brave and wonderful! :) Plus as Skeezix would put it "she gives me urges!" ;)

In recognition of this and because he's made me reconsider squirming and complaining about Isis cleaning between my back toes, I've got to nominate Skeezix and Mao - partly so Mao can get rid of the bad taste in his mouth...! ;) Plus I've just got to nominate HRH Yao-Lin as a little extra sugar might help him cope with his lack of real food... ;)

Other than that I've got to thank you all for putting up with Tigmut'hep hijacking my Blog yesterday... Honestly he's a big bully and likes nothing better than to throw his not inconsiderable weight around, just 'cause he's bigger and older than either Isis or me doesn't mean we should have to take his "bopping" us over the head and calling us "Aby sillyuns!" It's just not dignified... Plus how can you take anything seriously when you know they mancat sleeps with teddy bears!? ;)
