Awards, Prezzies, A Village of Furriends

HIYA!!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

What a week so far!! First, on Sunday, my bestest blogging pal from Nova Scotia Nerissa gave me an award…

The MY FAVORITE THINGS AWARD was created by Nissy to celebrate his milestone of fifty thousand hits to his blog!! WOO HOO!!! GORGEOUS!!!

The Rules:
“There are some things one must do in acceptin’ this award but they’re pretty simple things. All one must do is thank the blogger who gave you the award and put in a little linky to their blog, on yours. Then post the award on your blog and tell all your readers what your six favourite things are. And finally, pass the award on to as many bloggers as you would like. It could be just a couple or lots and lots. Whatever tickles your whiskers.”…so says Nissy…

My six favorite things:
1. I luvluvluv my Mr Scruffy toy
2. Snuggles with Dad and Mom at 5 AM
3. My paw blog, anipal furriends
4. My Peacock fev-vers
5. Tissue paper
6. My Mom

So…thank you Nerissa…and I have linked back to you…and now I would like to pass this lovely award to a few of my furriends who I think will so enjoy the flowers…

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Just a little reminder…’bout my foster brofur Leo…his search continues for his Furrever Castle…he wants one kind’a like mine (go figure…duh!!…mine is pawsome IMHFO)

I asked my furry best Mallie furriend…Misaki…if she would make a little badge doo-dah…just in case any of you feel like sportin’ it on your side bars…I know, I know…lots of you don’t do that kind’a stuff…no prob!…just offerin’ it to you…and a kajillion paw pats to Misaki for making this pawsome graphic…

…here it is “bigified”…

…and here it is in badge size…go on…try it on for looks…purrlease???…

Anything anyone of you can do to help Leo find his very own furrever castle…well…ummm…(shuffling paws back and forth…)…I would really, really appreciate it…(and I can add in some nip toys or woofies treats for motivation)…just askin’…

I decided to not post my Real Rescue Cats Are Talking Interview today…even tho’ it is the first Tuesday of July…’cuz…well, ya know…Leo IS a Real Rescue Cat…and he is not only “Talking” but he is “Asking”…purrlease help Leo find a furrever castle close to me so he can have some bloggy posts once in a while…wouldn’t that be cool????

Paw Pats, Savannah

Monday Meowsie News…Leo Is Looking

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!

ummm…shuffling paws…well, this is really hard to say…but Leo needs to find his own furrever castle. I am just to afraid to let him in the same room. And Leo, well, he is such a great mancat about all this…but he deserves a better quality of life than having to stay in his hotel suite most of the time.

The only time he can have the run of the house is when I take naps in my master bedroom tent…and truth to tell…I figured out that when I do that…I get shut in the room…and now I won’t go there anymore to take my daily naps. I am now staying downstairs…so Leo can’t be let out of his room.

This is not the quality of life Leo deserves and I want to get my routine back so I don’t have to keep going UTB if I am shut in our bedroom.

We all have very leaky eyes…but we are launching today a search for Leo to find his furrever castle.

I have created a Page at the Top of My Blog…”Leo’s Castle Search”… click HERE…I had Mom and Dad put up information that is impawtant to help Leo find his furrever castle…like I found mine.

Here are a few impawtant specifics he needs in his furrever castle…more are noted on his PAGE at the top of my blog:

Must be an indoor cat ONLY…he has NEVER been outside…he is about 4-6 years old; he is micro-chipped; all shots etc. current
It must be within a car drive from the San Francisco Bay Area…it can be in Southern Oregon, Nevada, or Arizona perhaps; but Northern California is our target search
No little children under age of 12
Preferably, calm home with one stay at home human: works from home/retired/etc.

Leo is FULLY RECOVERED from his episode with hepatic lipidosis (fatty liver syndrome). He loves his food…is an excellent player and has never ever had any issues with litter box, etc.

However…his Vet prefers that he not be subjected to any excessive stress right now…as it can be a trigger for this syndrome. Because of this, we do not want him to be transported a long distance.

We have had help from some good furriends in getting this started…and all of us working to find Leo his Furrever Castle are from all over the globe…this is the brilliance of social media…we believe that Leo is only 6 furriends away from making his contact with his Furrever Castle.

Even if you are in South Africa, New Zealand, Nova Scotia, Ontario CN, Sweden, UK, or East, South, North, Midwest, etc USA…you may know someone…who knows someone…who knows someone else…who can help Leo find his furrever castle…we are purraying for the ” Six Degrees of Separation” theory…

“Six degrees of separation is the theory that everyone and everything is six or fewer steps away, by way of introduction, from any other person in the world, so that a chain of “a friend of a friend” statements can be made to connect any two cats in a maximum of six steps.”

…and we ask you to feel free to take any of the information, photos, videos from Leo’s page to include in a blog post, tweet about it, post it on your Face Book page…we need your help and are grateful we have so many of you to ask…thank you for sticking with me during the past two months.

It has been difficult to manage Leo’s care when he had a feeding tube in and also all the other stuff Mom and Dad are involved in for community volunteering and what not. So, Mom hasn’t been able to help me get ’round to visit lots. I am sorry. Once Leo has his furrever castle, I hope we can be back to normal soon.

…here are the photos we picked to help Leo’s search…they are on his Page too…

What is that?

ACT!!! Kill Face!!

Whew! Thank Cod my tummy is shaved

Hey, wanna nose rub?

Chill’axing

ahh…another scratcher

Ahhh…life is so good…

I don’t feel well…

Thanks, I needed that

Waiting for my furrever castle

Mancat searches for his castle

I guess that is enough Monday Meowsie News…it has us all wiping leaky eyes…but we hope we will soon have tears of joy when Leo gets that call from someone who wants to give him his furrever castle…and he does come with his “hope chest”…you can see what is in it on his page “Leo’s Castle Search”
