Double GOTCHA DAY!

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

It’s January 3rd and that means it my FOURTH GOTCHA DAY and The Kid Sage’s SECOND GOTCHA DAY. Please celebrate with us. Sage and I know that we are two very fortunate cats having our Mom L and Dad P drawn to each of us through our magical feline charm.

Many other cats languish in shelters and with rescue groups hoping that their purrfect forever family will soon find them as well. Now I am not sayin’ this to be a downer…nope, no way. This is still our day to celebrate. I just want to remind my pals who drop by to visit me to never forget, WE are all the fortunate ones. Those of us who have a voice through our social media clearly landed on all our paws when we were chosen by humans who help us have a voice the world can hear. Join me when you can to Paw It Forward…especially for adult and special need or physically challenged cats that humans too often pass over for the cute kittens.

4 whole years. Thank you Ceiling Cat for helping Mom L and Dad P hear my voice

I know The Kid Sage feels the need to celebrate just as I do, but she also recognizes that fate for her could have been a life living on the streets.

Gosh! 2 years flashed by and I never saw it because I was safe and having fun

Now we want to share our DOUBLE GOTCHA DAY with all the participants on the fun Sunday Selfie Blog Hop hosted by the Kitties Blue from The Cat On My Head. Just click on the badge below and you will be whisked away to join the hop. You might leave a comment to check in on sweet Fiona who is struggling with CKD.

TKS and I hope you are having a great time. We truly appreciate having you all come to our DOUBLE GOTCHA DAY CELEBRATION.

Remember…PAW IT FORWARD…and SHARING SAVES LIVES…so always paw the ‘share’ button when a cat or woofie is searching for a home and especially if they are desperate to escape from a kill shelter. Let’s all stick together in making this year, 2016, the highest save rates yet across the world.

*steps off soap box* Ok, I’m done now. Let’s get my BFGF the Stunning Cathy Keisha to get the tunes to spinning and let’s PAWTAY!!!

PAW PATS, SAVANNAH

Using Facial Expression to Control Your Human

HIYA! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Glad to see you all stopped to read my blog post. I have very important information to share. You see, I have heard some of my pals say that I am a very serious cat. I always seem to have a stern look on my face and in my eyes.

Let me explain. You see, I use my facial expressions, and my eyes, to control Mom L. Especially when she has the clicky box in her hands. MOUSES! With those opposable thumbs, she can take a photo one handed if necessary. I don’t ‘do’ staged photo shoots so Mom L has to catch as catch can or so they say. But I make sure she knows exactly how I feel and how long I will tolerate her brandishing the clicky box around me.

Point One

Never allow the human to take photos while you are having a nice cozy nap. If they do such a thing, be sure to give them this look: The Eye of Discontent

This is not the appropriate time

Point Two

Do not allow ‘candid selfies‘. This simply lets them believe they are in control. You must be stern when this happens. Control the number of times they click that camera with this look: Are You Out of Your Mind

Do it one more time and the smacky paw comes into play

I hope these couple of pointers help all of you, feline or canine, gain better control of your humans. Mom L requires daily control so I have had lots of practice. If you need any more pointers, just let me know in comments. I am sure I can start sharing some of my techniques for applying facial and eye expression to control humans. We all know, humans need to learn we are definitely not ‘stage props’…just sayin’…

We Have A Little Chrissymouse Tree

HIYA! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

When we moved we had to donate our great big Chrissymouse tree…it was too big for our new home. But Dad P and Mom L made sure that Sage gets to experience her very first Chrissymouse tree this year. We have not put one up since Sage came to live in my castle.

I think she likes it. (apologies for such a poor photo of TKS, but our living room lighting is not suited for photos and Mom L only had her iPhone…sigh)

I think this is going to be fun

As for me, I prefer to spend my time contemplating and dreaming while in the presence of our Chrissymouse Tree.

Dreaming of peace and homes for all shelter cats

Of course there is always that flashy box that disturbs my attempts to Make A Difference in the lives of all adult homeless cats. Until I was FIVE years old, I had no home to call my own. Look at me now…
