Friday Frolics…My Special Step

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I have this very special stair…only one step…but I just luvluvluv it.  I do EVERYTHING on this step (…no! not what many of you are thinking *snicker*…I have a litter box for ‘that’…heh…heh)

Moving on…some times…I just use the step for, well,…ahhhh…ummmm….’resting’ parts of my body…(you can click on any image to bigify…just a suggestion…)

…other times…I use it to do some flirting with Mom and Dad…(sorry about the blurs, but I was flipping pretty fast!)

…and then I use it to “FLIP” over…and find leverage to shove off to other things to do…

I just luvluvluv my frolicking good times on my special step…

Monday Meowsie News…The Nip and Me?

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

What an exciting event around “Casa Savannah”..I received my first ever request from a pet product company to review a product!  Of course I said YES immediately…I could see piles of free peacock fev-vers coming to me for my special review….SWEET!

And finally the day came when my first product to review for a pet product company arrived.  I had Mom rip it open…and we both just stared…in dismay…can you guess what they sent to “ME“???…and of course how could they ever know…not their fault…we should have warned them…you all know by now what product they sent to, of all cats, Savannah….

CATNIP

The Natural Pet Company  was so  kind to provide me, Savannah, with an extra large bag of their special natural catnip…the nip was provided free of charge, I was allowed to keep all unused nip and I was not offered any compensation whatsoever for giving my completely honest review of this product. Bless their hearts, I just could not be the only cat to review their product so I sent Mom over to my former residence, Kitty Corner.

It was the only fair thing to do, knowing as you all do that…ahem…ahhhhh…yeah, well…I just do not do ‘nip’…*sigh*

Kitty Corner has some youngsters right now, but adults and even seniors too…Mom and Dad spread some piles around for them to sample…I think it was a huge SUCCESS…what do you think?

If that video doesn’t convince you…have a look through this slideshow and see some pawsome cats loving this nip…and remember…each and every one of these kitties needs a forever home…just sayin…

There were at least 12 cats who dug into that nip…I’d say that was 48 PAWS UP for The Natural Pet Company catnip!!

But it didn’t seem enough…so I sent Mom over to my former vet, Dr Thompson…she provides MREs (mice ready to eat) for her Kitty Platoon...six adult cats…very discriminating tastes…this would be a good trial for this special nip for sure…

First, Special Forces trained Toby, 14  years old, was given a pile to sample…

YUM!!

YUM!!

He couldn’t get enough..he would not allow that tabby cat next to him to even get a sniff!  Next up…Captain Fokker…a tabby senior officer and leader of the Platoon…he is 12 years old…

Ok, time to try out the rest of the Platoon…2nd Lt. J V (gray tabby), Specialist Carl Bob (orange tabby), Lt. Smokey (gray tabby)…*they could seriously start their own Tabby Cat Club!*…(Sargent Hum Vee was unavailable as he was away on assignment) Click to bigify

The Kitty Platoon gives that catnip 20 PAW UPS…this catnip is really something!!

Now, the final test…Mom filled my most favorite toy, my very first nip toy she ever bought for me when Dad and Mom brought me to their home as a ‘foster’ adult rescue cat.  Mr Scruffy Schmousie is a much loved, somewhat tattered, catnip toy that seldom ever has any nip in him…it doesn’t matter to me…at least we thought that was true…watch the video and see if you think having Mr Scruffy stuffed to busting with The Natural Pet Company Special Catnip had any affect on me…(be sure to watch until at least second 25…just a suggestion)

Wooooeeeee!!! That catnip has some real kick to it!! Mom had to put Mr Scruffy’s tummy back in him ‘cuz I got so carried away I pulled it trying to get to that yummy nip!

This CATNIP  is the very first ever, and I mean EVER!…catnip to receive my, Savannah’s, FOUR PAWS UP approval!! I will never be without it again and all my nip toys will be filled with…*looks over shoulder to Mom*….Right?

So, my product review of their catnip ended with 72 PAWS UP!!!

Today is a really special day for a great special pal of mine…my adventure buddy and the best cat innovator and inventor I ever met and he loves time traveling just like me…my pal Nerissa posted his 200th post Sunday…purrlease hop over and give him a big congratulations!

Hope you enjoyed my first product review…and let me just give a little reminder…Ray Charles and Rachel are getting bigger every week…they need a furrever home ASAP…please don’t forget these two black panthers…remember, Ray Charles may have limited sight, but his face is precious and he plays and acts all crazy like any other 9 month old kitty.

Paw Pats, Savannah

peeEss...I won’t be around very much for visits as Mom is off until this coming weekend…visits will be limited ‘cuz she won’t have connectivity for at least 3 days of her time away…purrrrs for your understanding

Monday Meowsie News…Getting Closer

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

My newsie stuff is sort of purrsonal…ahem…for me…

You see Mom and Dad took off again…that “get-away” stuff they do…

I could tell they were going you see…they were leaving me…I know, I always know…and mostly…I do not approve…

Excuse me...why the bags??

Excuse me…why the bags??

…then they try, always, on the last night they are with me…leaving me all alone, unattended for a kazillion years…they try, and try to “make it up” to me…pffffttttt!

So I simply  must, as any adult cat would, let them know of my displeasure…

Cleaning my HIND toes is more impawtant than you

Cleaning my HIND toes is more impawtant than you

…and so is my tooshie…so there!…

Yup, this is more impawtant

Yup, this is more impawtant

Well I can tell you they got ‘the’ message…but…MOUSES!! They left anyway…

So just to humor Mom, I thought I would share some photos of the place they visited.  You see, Mom and Dad and my former Vet Dr. Josie and hubby all pawticipated a WHOLE year ago in a fund raising event for my former shelter…and Mom bid for all of them, and WON, a 3 day, 2 night stay at this totally pawsome place on the Russian River in Northern California.  So they had a great time, AND donated to my former shelter…totally win win…if you are the humans and not the cat…

Finally, purrlease do not stop helping precious Ray Charles and Sisfur Rachel in their search for a furrever home..

They have a blog, click HERE; and their very own page on Foster Sisfur Selina’s bloggy…click HERE…PLEASE help these lovely 9  month old kittens find their furrever castle…here is the badge…wear it proudly…

…surely we can all find these kitties, who have vision challenges as did Homer and others, find their purrfect home…

Paw Pats, Savannah

peeEss…I have forgiven Dad for leaving me…(photo just taken as Mom was hitting the ‘publish’ button…a bit blurry…but both were very surprised that I came so close to cuddle with Dad (he is sitting in Mom’s place while she types my bloggy…and I have my head toward him, not my butt…heh…heh)
