Friday Frolics…and Hope for MJ!

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

First…my good furriend Basil posted today that MJ has a prospective visitor coming on Saturday…for a real home, not just foster!!!!!!!!!!  So purrlease, keep all purrs, woos, woofs, wheeks, paws crossed and aimed toward England so we can see MJ find a furrever home…be sure to hop over to Basil’s post today and see some great video of cute little MJ playing…what a pretty black panfur she is!

Also, in case you missed it…my blogging buddy Nissy, over at Nerissa’s Life, has had a major WIN with ‘spell check’ feature on Face Book.  You know how Nissy coined the word “MOUSES!” …well FB no longer RED LINES it as a misspelled work!! Nissy is waiting now for approval from the Oxford Dictionary….WOO HOO NISSSY!! MOUSES!!

I will have some photos and updates on my Monday Meowsie News about Cousin Leo and Dad Dave…and hopefully a teeny little announcement from them…

But as for me…I have had some photo shoots with Mom as she tried to get just the right photos of me to submit for the Cat Blogosphere 2014 Calendar.  She followed advice from Katie and Glogirly and worked hard to get “natural light” and to get “down on my level”…heh…heh…

Now I hardly EVER touch this purple fishy…but as soon as Mom tried to get photos of my gorgeous face…I snatched it right up to my mouth…

…what?…you want more…sure…snicker, snicker…

…so then I let her toss my purple fishy away…bwwaaahahahahaha…

Yeah, yeah…she finally got a couple of good ones later on…I’ll let her share on Monday Meowsie News…and we sent in a couple of Cousin Leo too…he just needs to “get a blog address”…hint, hint Dad Dave…..

The last bestest ever thing that happened as soon as Cousin Leo left my castle…I almost immediately started to play more, use my tunnels again, AND I am sleeping in the way cool new bed Mom bought from Cats Love Naps.  We saw them on The Chronicles of Zee and Zoey and Mom ordered one each for me and Cousin Leo. He got in his right away…but I waited to use mine until he left my castle…now you can find me in it every single day!!!

Have a great Friday and make some time to Frolic…

Monday Meowsie News…Leo Has Left the House

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!…AND “COUSIN LEO”

Yep…hope you all got that change…see formerly “Foster Brofur Leo(FB Leo)” is now “Cousin Leo”…and formerly “New Dad Dave (NDD) is now “Dad” Dave…and Foster Mom (FM) and Foster Dad (FD) are now Auntie Linda and Uncle Peter for Leo…GOT It!!

Just remember that song “We Are Family”…and that is what we are now creating with Dad Dave and Cousin Leo…

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jmJjD33eKDU

We may not be “sisfurs”…but we are creating a new furramily…me, Mom, Dad, Uncle Dave and Cousin Leo…

Moving Day…mostly photos…and the leaky eyes have not stopped yet…joy, loss, new life, life saved, new love between Leo and Dad Dave…and so much more…

Grab some tissues…and enjoy…remember you can hover your cursor over the photos for captions …and you can always click to bigify…

…something is happening…and I am not sure I understand…

…Leo:  “Dad Dave…he is…ummm…well..actually…really pretty cool…ummm …as Cousin Savvy says…”just an observation…”

…Say What???…this is home????

…thank Ceiling Cat…I think Dad Dave and I can manage a Thursday Garden Report for Jonesie…at least once a month…it’s kind’a small…but way cool!!…and even “indoor stuff”…Auntie Linda and Uncle Peter don’t have zip inside!!

And so as an addendum…a recap of Leo’s “sleep over” with “Dad” Dave…heh…heh…

As many of you already know…FD Peter has been going to bed with Foster Brofur Leo since he came to us on May 2nd….”my” Dad Peter always starts with reading a book…before “lights out”….so he lies on the bed in Leo’s hotel suite and reads…waiting for Leo to come to him for his nightly “snuggle under the chin” routine…eventually Leo comes and snuggles….under the chin, purrs, cleans, then goes off to his bed by the window…and Dad Peter says “good night” and leaves Leo and comes to bed with me and Mom Linda.

Welllllll…WHO would have ever thought last night with his “New” Dad Dave would be different…ummmm…except maybe Leo…so Dad Dave went to bed with Leo…

YUP!! nothing went according to the humans’ plans!!…heh…heh…

Dad Dave has been here several times…so Mom Linda and Dad Peter planned on having him spend the night last night…Saturday night…so Leo could have his Dad Dave “tuck him in” like FD Peter…and then Dad Dave and Leo were supposed to have a great time “bonding”….*snicker*

Well…usually Leo is fine once FD Peter leaves, about 1 AM…(what a foster Dad!!)…so Mom did not put her usual “tissue” in her ears…Dad Peter has a hearing issue so he doesn’t ever hear Leo when he whines “meows” at night…which he has not done for like weeks….

Fast forward…last night…Mom wakes up and elbows Dad Peter…”can you hear Leo?”…ahhh…”no…grumble”…minutes later…Mom to Dad…”can you hear him now??”…”ahhh…no…grumble”…

Finally at 4 AM…Mom wakes to hear Leo literally “body slamming” into the bedroom door in his hotel suite…Mom elbows Dad Peter…”we have to do something…Dad Dave can’t sleep…”  Dad Peter is thinking…”yeah, so what else is news…neither can I???”…

So Dad Peter gets up and gets me, Savannah, and Leo, an  “early” breakfast”…Dad Peter opens the door to Leos’ hotel suite and slides the food in…and then gives me mine…which I of course eat quietly…and then Dad Peter goes back to bed…

BWWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!…Next morning…we all learn that Leo started to eat the food…chomp, chomp, growl, grrr…chomp…chomp…grrr…merrwww, grrrr…chomp…” and so on…Leo ate…but he snarled and growled after ever bite!!!

Dad Peter and Mom Linda finally sleep until 7AM…and then learn that Dad Dave has not slept ALL NIGHT!!!

So all night long, literally, Leo was shocked to find someone other than FD Peter in his bedroom…so he jumped from the top of the cat tower onto the bed, then walked over Dad Dave, sniffed and learned it WAS NOT FD Peter,  then went to his bed on other side of the human bed, then did the same route, back and forth all night long!!

Mom Linda, Dad Peter and Dad Dave laughed all Sunday AM about what Dad Dave’s first night with Cousin Leo had been like!!  Dad Peter and Mom Linda both admitted at 6AM that they were worried that Dad Dave would say “I am so not taking this crazy clown cat!!”…and then Dad Dave just laughed…he and Leo will be just fine…but we still miss Leo…just sayin’

Paw Pats…Savannah
