Who me? Naughty Tuxie Girl???

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Never ever in my whole life in my Princess Castle forever home have I wanted to have anything to do with human’s food.

Until Mom L made a scrumptious beef pot roast!!

Sniff testing

Mom L put her dinner tray on the coffee table after her dinner the other night. I was on the sofa next to her. Within a minute or so I did something that shocked the heck outta Mom L! I actually approached that tray, one paw on the coffee table, then another, and one more until I have all four paws on that table!

And yes!! I did in fact INHALE!! And it was glorious! So of course I was forced to nibble a bit.

Just a nibble to see if it is tasty

And then I could not help myself, I started to chomp and gnaw and slurp—well you get my meaning, right? Finally I was forced to flee my prey because I had that chunk of beef roast fat in my jaws and was ready to drag that prey to the floor to do more than inhale.

I am taking you to the floor my yummy morsel

Now do any of you think that my behavior was at all unTuxie like??

PAW PATS, SAVANNAH

PeeEss—please keep Momma Kat, #mommakatssearch in your thought and prayers. She is a very shy two year old girl who just needs someone patient and kind to give her a home. Please Share Share Share, as much and as long as you can. Purrs for your shares.

Momma Kat’s Hope Chest Is Complete—Now She Needs Her Home

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Finally Momma Kat’s Hope Chest is filled! The generosity of fellow bloggers, cat brands and pet product suppliers was overwhelming. Several even made sure to include items for Momma Kat’s five kittens as well.

As you can imagine, Momma Kat’s rescue is dependent on partnerships between my local municipal shelter, Contra Costa Animal Services and bay area transfer partners. Please notice I did not say “Momma Kat’s rescue was dependent…”. I said “…is dependent…” because she will not be truly “rescued” until she has her own loving permanent guardians to care for her.

I want to ask my readers to consider finding some green papers to help the two primary partners who collaborated to bring about the early stages of her rescue. And if you don’t have any green papers or silver coins to share then please, share these two organizations who are responsible for the fact that Momma Kat is alive and well today.

First, Contra Costa Animal Services (CCAS) is my county’s shelter. Their field services Officer John responded to the call from the public about finding Momma Kat badly injured in their front yard. Please consider donating to CCAS’ Animal Benefit Fund to help other animals who without CCAS would never be alive and able to find caring homes.

Next, please think about making a donation to Bright Haven who is a transfer partner with CCAS. Bright Haven stepped up and took on Momma Kat and her five kittens knowing that Momma Kat required serious surgery. You can make a donation here to help other animals just like Momma Kat.

Next up, the contents of Momma Kat’s Hope Chest! Please be sure to visit their websites to learn more about each contributor.

Door Buddy

Mom L learned about Door Buddy at the 2016 Blog Paws Conference. I decided that Momma Kat ought to have one of these just in case her new family has a woofie or small child. And Door Buddy donated not one but two!

Classy Pet Food Bowls

The founder decide to not only provide Momma Kat with a water bowl and a food bowl, but also to provide each kitten with their own food bowl too! And she made sure the girl kittens have pink and the boys have blue!!

Mom L asked the President of DH&A, a marketing and public relations company, if any of their cat brand clients might be willing to donate to Momma Kat’s Hope Chest. Next thing I knew I was pawing at the door for Mom L to bring in this heavy package. Thank you to Miss Jo and her clients for their generosity!

Playing Around with Filters

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

My Sunday Selfie was especially fun to create. I pawed the Dreamscope button after I added two filters from Photoshop Elements and voila! I have two renditions of my selfie for today. I am joining my buddies The Kitties Blue from The Cat On My Head for their Sunday Selfie Blog Hop.

Here is the first one where I only used a couple of filters from PSE.

I love you Mom

My upside down head tilt gets Mom every time. She likes it even better than the standing head tilt the pro cat models use. What do you think? Oh yeah, and the sweet little front paws doing their own rendition of a “tilt” never hurts.

Next I used Dreamscope on the photo above. All I did was add Vandyke and whoa! This photo popped right out at me. I like it, don’t you?

I have gone all colorful!

I’ll be sure to see you at the Sunday Selfie Blog Hop!

PAW PATS, SAVANNAH

PeeEss—I will be announcing the contents of Momma Kat’s Hope Chest on my blog post tomorrow. She is still not adopted so I hope I can give you an update on what’s up with promoting her.
