Thursday Purrsday

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Sportin' my SIbe look!!

Sportin’ my SIbe look!!

Just wanted to start off with some levity…for those of you who might not recognize me in my new SSS Sibe Ears and Tail Plume…you can get that little update HERE

And in case you might not know WHY I have long dreamed of becoming a Sibe…ya know…always a ‘Wanna Be’…you can check out my luv affair with Nanuk ever since I first arrived in my furrever home…click HERE

You can also check out my link on the top of my blog page…OTRB

Now as for my reasons for purring up a storm this week…first there is my increasingly intimate relationship with Mom Linda…

I luvluvluv having my toes held by Mom

I luvluvluv having my toes held by Mom

Never, ever in my first 2 years in my furrever home would I have allowed touching my toesies…now I relish it…for a short period…MOL

And then…our bird TV finally kicked up a notch tonight…after 18 months in this rental…we have managed to attract our first woodpecker…can’t tell the type yet…too far off…but he waited long enough for Mom to get her extra telephoto to get the best close up we could…

And today I found my first sun puddle on the landing between the two levels of our stairs…I am slowly regaining my role as “stair case troll” given to me almost 2 years ago by the gang over at Katnip Lounge.

I sort of saved the best for last as far as what I am purring so loudly about this week.  Sit back, pull up a chair…this is gonna be complicated…nawwwwwwwwwwwwwww….just kidding…seriously…

So I told Mom that Dad needed to dump that old iPad she ‘dumped’ on him when she upgraded hers…no, no…no family friction over any of this…*koff, choke, giggle*…so Dad had a friend who gave him some green papers for his old one…Mom said “no problem”…but those green papers go into Nana’s “rescue fund”…of course what was Dad gonna say???…

Taaaaaa….Daaaaaaa…..I got some green papers to use as I purrlease…and here is my very first ever with my own green papers rescue pledge…just another Pawing It Forward Project at Casa Savannah…

…please welcome newly rescued Fontaine!…

Thank you all for your help

Thank you all for your help

Now do not, absolutely DO NOT GET ALL LEAKY EYED…yes, just as I looked when I was dumped at a kill shelter…there were no make up support staff present, no one to tidy me or Fontaine up… BUT…ITS A MIRACLE!!!…sharing on Face Book SAVED FONTAINE!! WOO HOO!!!

Dozens and dozens of people across the USA raised over $1550 USD to allow a small rescue to pull her…AND SHE IS ALREADY ADOPTED by one of my FB furriends!!

Fontaine’s Story: “FRACTURE OF DISTAL HUMERUS (DISTAL LIMB DISPLACED MEDIALLY”…PERFECT SCORE 4 PURRING, EXTREME LOVE BUG Fontaine!!…”allows the stroke, rubs on the assessor’s hand, purrs, and appreciates petting on the head and body; interacts with the Assessor, solicits attention, is easy to handle and tolerates all petting!!””…PRECIOUS, DARLING Fontaine at $1550 in pledge offers

While I wish I could post a rescue like this every week; selling my Dad’s iPad allowed me to help this one cat.  But as I have said earlier; sharing on FB, Twitter, posting on your blogs…it all saves lives of rescued companion animals. NO GREEN PAPERS REQUIRED!

PLEASE do not respond to someone sharing about rescue with a simple “purrs he/she gets saved”…share, share, share…it does indeed save lives across this world; in places you did not even know someone…trust me…this is true.

And just a reminder…with one more small request to share…remember my furriend Tiny who has almost been at my former rescue a whole year, just like me.  She still does not have a home…not even one single inquiry. And not many were able to share about her when I posted about her last week

Well Mom Linda and Dad Peter agreed to do the early morning clean up for Kitty Corner, my shelter, yesterday.  Mom took some photos of Tiny as she waited in the rest room (water closet, toilet, etc) for someone to join her…doesn’t she look like a cat who is just waiting for her forever home to find her???

Help her if you can through sharing via blog posts, Twitter, Face Book…or any other social media you use. My purrrs of gratitude will overwhelm you…

Now, I join Pepi Smart Dog’s Thankful Thursday Blog Hop…because I have so very much to be purring about…please click on the badge to transport to other incredible thankfulness…

My next news is…ummm…well….ahhh….errrrrrrrrrrrrr….ok, ok…let’s just say it is ‘different’ for a cat blog…na’mean???

So, my long time readers know that my humans’ had Siberian Huskies long before me…and I am sort of a wannabe ‘Sibe’…seriously!

My good Sibe furriends Mika, Lexus and Koda at Love is being Owned by a Siberian just gave me the most PAWSOME gift of my whole life…membership into the Secret Siberian Society (SSS)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

sss

There are certain things you need to do to be inducted into the S.S.S (secret sibe society) There are two different sets of rules. One set for huskies and their owners and one set for those of you (pets or humans) who have a undying love of the breed…this would be me!!!

Rules for furriends who have an undying love for huskies :
You must be willing to wear a set of husky ears and our gorgeous plume tail.

  • You must know at least one Sibe fact about our breed…Savvy’s Mom Linda and Dad Peter know like a TON about us!!
  • You must follow our Sibe-Vibe posts weekly…of course Savvy, as a wannabe Sibe does this!
  • You must share what your interests is in becoming a member of the S.S. S. And Savannah has let us know for a long time!
  • Finally, you  must agree to keep ‘lips closed’ about this society when conversing with non Sibe lovers…got it?

So…here I am sporting all my Sibe ears and tail plumes!!!  (click to bigify and hover over photos to see full captions)

If you are a ‘wanna be’ Sibe…just head on over to Mika, Lexus and Koda’s blog and ask if you can join the S. S. S.

And my other news is another PAWSOME AWARD FROM MY PAL NISSY!!!

Yoo Hoo Award

100,000 hit award #1

Celebrating Nissy’s Achievement of 100,000 views for his pawsome blog

As Nerissa says…

“The rules for acceptin’ the Yoo-hoo! YOO-HOO! Award are pretty simple.

– Firstly, post the award on your blog and thank the blogger who gave it to you.

– Secondly, visit at least three of the blogs that are receiving the award along with you and leave a

comment.

– Thirdly, tell us all three things you have to celebrate.  You know, three things for which you are

thankful.

– Lastly, pass along the award to seven other bloggers and let them know you have done so.

So let me get started first with my THREE THINGS TO CELEBRATE:

  1. I am loved, and know that tummy rubbing is pretty nice
  2. I think I can learn to share my life with another cat…meaning The Kid Sage
  3. My Dad still calls me his Princess

Now for my SEVEN nominees, should they chose to accept this award from me…

Friday Frolics…

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE…FINALLY!!!

Ummmm…sorry about being late to the blog postin’ and all.  My typist was out late last night and begged me to let her post later today.  She hands out the treats, so who was I to say no…na’ mean???

So here are some frolicking good times in my ‘hood…first the Canada Geese are back in the apartment complex near us and they finally brought out their goslings for all of use to admire.  The apartment complex has lots of ponds and the Mallard ducks and the Canada Geese usually have one to two sets of babies…Mom’s video of the Momma and Poppa and the kids taking to the water is simply precious!

And here is a slideshow of their cuteness…

I found a forgotten video of The Kid  Sage…and while is certainly is NOT great…it does let you see her up close and personal…so seemed like a Friday Frolic movie to me…hope you enjoy…

Now its my turn to share MY frolics…I don’t always react to the nip or even the vine…but Mom dumped a big bunch of strong nip on my scratcher and my oh my was it good!!
