Shut the Front Door she is so cute! You have to submit the core photo to LOLCats (aka the company that wanted to pay me $8.75 an hour).
PS. That post made me laugh and cry a little.
hahahahahaha i love the work your core picture!
my dog has totally taught me to appreciate bananas. hahah
Fabulous post!
Ellie is so adorable!! :) Makes me want a kitten!!
My dogs teach me unconditional love.
always forgive...
i love the cat photos. i'm allergic to kitties so it allows me to appreciate them without sneezing!
Awww...baby kitty. And I posted cat pictures tonight too, even with my cat aversion. Meow.
Hi Deb! Thanks for the comment on my blog. I totally feel like a cool kid now.
Our cat is Tiny Wood. I'll tell my husband to ok your friend request because you have an awesome blog and are Friend of Cats.
Tiny has taught us that if you yell loud and long enough, you will get delicious chicken to eat.
The last one is my motto ;)
That kitty is just too cute! Hope your well pretty lady!
I tagged ya x x
Love kittehs:) And thank you for not putting up a pic of her licking her ladybits for the "keep yourself clean" one!
Awwww!! I don't even know what else to say (that's basically what I was saying throughout this entire post). I've been gone so long I didn't realize you'd gotten a new kitten! What an absolute cutie...makes me wish Minnie was mini again! :)
Things I've learned from MY slightly less adorable cat:
1. If you don't get your way, meow and whine. And then bite.
2. If no one pets you, rub up against their faces while they're sleeping and intermittently screech. And then bite.
3. Refuse to eat alone. Meow and whine until someone stands next to you while you eat. (I think this is also a Geneen Roth "rule")
4. Spend a lot of time grooming long hair. (and occasionally vomiting up said hair. But not alone, make sure to yack up hairballs in the company of others, especially while they're sleeping. See #2 and #3.)
I love the work your core photo! Super cute :)
Hi Deb, I wasn't sure how to email you directly, but I have a question on traveling with food. I'm leaving for a trip to France and Portugal next week, and I want to bring some snacks (oats and protein powder in baggies, bars, justin's pb packets). Is this kind of stuff ok to bring? Do I just have to declare everything when entering each country? Thanks!!!
Hi Allison- what a fun trip you have planned. THe only things that need to be declared are liquids and gels- so if you want to be super anal (like me) you'll put your justin's butters into the same see-through quart sized zip lock bag that you have all of your lotions and potions in. You just take it out and put it through security separately (no explanation needed). Bon Voyage!
your cats are too cute! the work your core picture made me laugh.
This was the cutest post!! I love Ellie...she and Sam are so cute! Makes me wish Minnie was still a little furball. I get the whole "eat a good book" thing - Minnie has chewed on quite a few of my paperbacks!
