Tuesday Toesies and Opt to Adopt Blog Hop

Leo's showing off some of his extra great toesies in some older pictures!

The Winnie's Wish kitties we're highlighting today are a little older, but have years and years of love in them! Tracy Mae is six years old and Teddy is eight, they would love homes of their own soon!


Tracy Mae is a sweetheart who just wants a human of her own that she can purr and purr and purr for. She loves to be petted. She may do better in a home with no other kitties, or maybe just one other kitty. In the cathouse she just tries to stay out of the way of the other cats. But she loves loves loves pets and attention!






Teddy is a real loverboy! He's laid back and kind and loves EVERYbody! Cats, humans, he doesn't care, he loves loves loves everyone! Won't you give him a place to love you forever?



You can find out more about both of these sweeties HERE.

And you can find all the adoptable Winnie's Wish kitties on the sidebar at Daily Dose!
(Oh my gosh, they just got one silver and two more black kitties and one of them looks like a miniature Spitty the Kitty! They are over their limit of kitties, so please please please help find lots of great homes!!)

Predictable Cats? Not So Much

Cat's sleep in laundry baskets. Right?
There is no where you can put a laundry basket that a cat won't sleep in it. Right?
Given the choice between a squished up few inches of chair and a laundry basket full of soft towels with a soft quilt on tip and a cat will, what? No brainer, right?

This is why I don't fully understand cats sometimes!

What? I'm a mystery, wrapped in an enigma, covered in fur.
 
 
 
I guess only tiny little Star could fit comfortably in the three or four inches left of that chair. And look cute napping there! What a silly girl! I mean, she's the reason there's a blanket on top of laundry baskets around here, because she won't stay out of them!

I nap where I want, when I want. I'm allowed, I'm the boss!



Yes, you are the boss Star. I'll stop taking your picture so you can return to your nap, sweetie.

Long Napper

Leo is a long napper. You can take that in a couple of different ways. For instance, he naps for a long time. Especially when he requires your arm to keep him from sliding off and you have to stay in a particular position until said arm nearly falls off. Then he'll give you a disgusted look, turn around and snuggle back in for the rest of his nap, probably still requiring an arm. If you're lucky, it'll be the opposite arm this time, but don't count on it!

He's also a long sleeper because, well, because he's a loooonnngg cat! You can see that in the following pictures where he's nearly got his rear end up on the back of the couch and his nose about hanging off the front. Long kitty is long! Long napper is long!





We hope you all have a long, restful weekend!
And we are hoping Chrystal has a nice, long, restful, wonderful vacation! We are anticipating the wonderful surprise she hinted will be coming when she gets back! What a tease, huh, to leave us with a cliffhanger when she's going to be gone for two weeks? MOL

Straw Hat Day

 

Star and Leo wanted to participate in Straw Hat Day! (even if they have to use last year's pictures)





~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


We're going to be kind of scarce in commenting for a while and want to apologize ahead of time. You see, Twin 1 (The Loud One) and Twin 2 (The Scared One) are both getting married. Twin 2 first, and I'm making her brides maids dresses. Among other things for both the wedding and shower. It's going to take a lot of our time and energy. So please know that we love you, but may not visit/comment much for a while. When Twin 1's wedding comes up next spring, we'll be in the same boat again! But there should be a break in the middle!

Sunshine and Opt to Adopt Blog Hop

Oh boy did we get some sunshine! Unfortunatly it came with the hots! What ever happened to the nice spring weather, 60's, some 70's temperatures.. Nice breezes and that 'ahhhh' feeling now that the colds are gone.. Why do we have to go from the colds directly to the hots with no stops in between??

Ok, I'll stop ranting..

Leo was enjoying the sun shiney day anyway! Sitting in the bright sunlight in the window made him a very happy boy!

All this sun brings out the birdies! And the squirrel! Not to mention the big guy across the street...


Can you see the railing around the porch across the street in this picture? They have a big white Cockatoo over there and when the weather is nice, he gets to go outside along with his pal, an African Gray parrot. They walk around on that railing. The cockatoo is a real character and he is LOUD! You can hear him all the way up to our house. (It's not obvious in the picture, but our front yard is really long, it's farther away than it looks.) He has a lot of vocalizations including a cell phone ring and the squeal of a loose belt in a car.

The cockatoo, who's wings are clipped, will get down and walk across the street to our yard, talking all the way. This is vastly entertaining to the kitties! And the rest of us too! Sometimes he'll climb a bush, grab a low hanging branch and get up in a tree and then when his mom comes to get him, he'll sit up there and tease her, swinging back and forth on the branch and talking to her. She keeps telling him he has to go home and he just happily squawks, as if he's laughing and saying 'you can't make me!'

That's when she breaks out the big guns. She tells him that the chickenhawk is coming! Yikes! So he'll consent to coming down, eventually, and will walk back across the street with her. Squawking, of course. I don't know if some people find it annoying, but as for me, I think it's adorable and fun! So do Star and Leo, who watch this parade as often as it happens.
