Socks Seal of Approval

MC and Visa,

I just love the tree thingy that your HuMom gave to us! It is so very cool. I like to go to the very top and watch out the window. I can see so much from way up there. Blackie checked it out, but hasnt let Mom take a picture of him yet. Abby is napping on the very bottom, but I know how she loves to sleep up on the top of things, where she can watch everyone. It is only a matter of time till Mom catches her up there.

Well, we are really enjoying the new cat tree. Please tell your HuMom, thank you from all of us.

OUCH!

oh, I did not enjoy my trip to the Vet. She was nice and all, in the begining, but then she pulled out the needle thing. The first 2 didnt hurt, but then Mom said something about a "Micro-chip"...That didnt make me happy. IT HURT! Mom felt so bad though, she keeps coming to see if I am ok. I am tring to act mad...I dont want to let her off the hook quite yet.

Mom took Abby with me, to the Vet. It was nice to have her along and I wasnt so scared this time. I just snuggled up next to Abby and she purred. Abby is "Stressed out", the vet says. She is really worried about all the moving stuff, and the Vet says that she should be fine when the move thing is done. I just want to know were we are moving. Socks says it is a nice place with lots and lots of windows, but I will have to judge for myself.

Oh well, I guess that is all for now. Socks and Abby say "hi" to everyone.

Blackie and Abby are going to the vet...

I heard Mom this afternoon, when she called the vet people. Blackie needs to have his shots (I really hate shots!) and Mom says that Abby has a "bald spot" on her tummy. Abby doesnt seem to mind, but I think Mom just wants to be sure that everything is ok. I am sure that Abby or Blackie will report on their trip tomorrow.

Other than that, Mom says that we only have a week till we move to the new house. I am being brave, but I think that Blackie and Abby are alittle afraid.

So Quiet

The house is so quiet during the day now. The little humans are not here during the day, Mom says that they are in "school". I really like this school thing.

Mom has also been busy, she says that she is "moving". It is a little scary. Mom is moving all sorts of stuff, everything is going out and nothing is coming in, except for empty boxes. She took me one night to the "new house" for me to see and explore. I like the new smells and there is a room with lots and lots of windows. I liked to look out the windows, that was the best room. Mom says that we will be moving into the house in a week, I hope that Blackie and Abby like the "new house"

Funny Kitties

I was laying on the couch next to Mom this evening when she clicked on a new site. She was laughing and so I went to see what was up. She was reading Cats me if you can, it is very funny! I hope that you enjoy it as much as I did (and Mom did too)

Mean...mean...mom

Mom heard something out on the porch yesturday night. I heard it too and went to see what it was too. She opened the door and looked outside, with me by her side. Then she turned out the outside light and shut the door....without me coming back inside. I sat for a while, watching the "night life", but I got bored of that and wanted back in. I cried for Mom, and scratched the door. Mom must have heard me because she opened the door almost immediately and let me in. I let her know how I felt though, she tried to pick me up to see if I was alright...and I made mad faces at her. I love her though, so I will be nice to her later.

Pins but no needles

Mom has been working on this stuff she calls "Jewelry" lately. When she is done, she takes pictures of the jewelry. She puts the jewelry onto this black thing she says is made of Styraphom and black felt, that helps her to take the pictures. She uses "pins" to hold the jewelry, to it. Well, I discovered one day, that pins are so interesting. I started taking the pins out and dropping them onto the floor. It was neat, they made a funny sound when I took them out. Well, as you might imagine, Mom was not to happy. She said that I cant take them out anymore. I have tried a couple times, to see if I can catch a pin out, but Mom is pretty careful these days. Oh well, I guess it is back to little mice filled with catnip.

sorry everyone

I am sorry that we havent been able post lately, but it has been purr-fectly nasty hot. Blackie has been trying to stay cool in the bathroom, the floor is nice in there. Abby has been hiding when the little human is about, and I just cant seem to find a cool place to stay that the little human doesnt bother me. Mom and I have a new "thing", she taps the top of the big humans computer chair, I hop up there and she pets and scritches. It is nice, and I know that if I get onto the back of the chair as she is passing, she will stop.

I tried to go out the other day, Mom was not happy at all. She now looks at me when I sit by the door and says "Not a chance, Socks." Oh well, maybe the little human will forget to shut the door.

Hot in here

Oh boy, I do love my nice soft fur, but it is a little warm sometimes. I am really happy that Mom keeps the "AC" on. or else it would get really warm. I have taken to sleeping on the bathroom floor, where it is coolest, during the day. I only get to sleep on the Cat tree at night when it isnt so warm, unfortunately, Abby wants to sleep there too.



Oh well

~ Blackie

Its Official

I am sorry that we have not written in a bit, it has been just a tad hectic around here.



We have decided to take responsibility for Blackie. I would call it "Adopted" but he is still going to be listed on Petfinder.com (second kitty down), but as far as we are concerned, he is ours. In September he will have been in the shelter for one year. Blackie has been with us for almost 8 months, and he has become one of us. So, for now, we have three kitties, and I will not be fostering any more cats. Maybe someday, when I have a larger place, I will be able to shelter more kitties. I will be working on the sidebars soon, and Blackie will join Abby and Socks, as one of the "Authors", so please look for his "posts".
