Heeeeere's Rollie!

...Well, sort of...

(sound of fanfare music falling flat)

*hiss* Go away lady!

Mom brought Rollie home yesterday but she failed miserably on the picture front - she forgot to take the flashy box with her and then when Rollie was home and exploring her room, she didn't have it either.  Mom says Rollie is hiding in the closet in her room now, but she has been out to eat and, um, do her business.

Rollie's old home is only a couple hours drive from where we live.  Rollie's family were not able to bring her but Raymond and Busby's human Niece, Jenni, brought her.  She and our mom met at a halfway point to make the exchange.  Mom said that Jenni was super nice and she thought is was so pawsome that Jenni made the drive with Rollie.

Mom said that Rollie was a good little traveler and didn't make much of a fuss.  When she got home, she took Rollie straight to her room.  Rollie came out of her ptu and explored the room, rubbed on mom and she let mom pet her.  Mom left her to settle in for a bit and since then, Rollie has gone into hiding mode.  Mom said Rollie's coat wasn't as soft as ours - Rollie was eating a poor quality kibble.  We don't do kibble here so mom is all ready changing Rollie's diet.  Mom also said Rollie could stand to lose at least a pound, heh heh.

As Rollie gets more used to the place, we'll try and share more, er, better pictures :-) and she can tell efurryone about herself.

Countdown to Caturday

Caturday is going to be a big day around here,  It's the day that mom is going to pick up Rollie to come and live with us!  We're all very excited but no one more than mom.  Ok, we admit at first, when mom told us what was going on, we weren't too sure and were a little nervous...but now that we've had time to think about it, we are happy to be helping a fellow kitty.  Plus, with four of us now, we can play Bridge!

Mom had most of the day off yesterday and she worked on setting up Rollie's room.  She is going to take the room that Minnie and Wriggley shared, so mom had to move Wriggley's stuff out.  We kitties snoopervised her work.

Mom moved Wriggley's condo crate into her room (though we call it Smidgen's room :-)) and she had to shift our tree around to make the crate fit.

Again, we made sure everything was just so...

There are still a few details that need to be worked out...

the ramp to nowhere

And voila!

Rollie's new room...until she settles in and we have a chance to meet and greet and get along :-).

Sorry Rollie, we'll have to work on mom to get you some jungle gym equipment...

Thankful Thursday

We are so thankful for the wonderful home we have.  We are truly loved and spoiled.  Our mom says it's important that we share and maybe help out kitties or woofies that aren't so lucky.

Mom: That's right, Smidgen.  That's why we're opening our home for a kitty in need of a new forever home.

Wait...Whaaa!?!

Mom...that's not what we meant!

Mom: Relax!  everything will be fine.  And Minnie, NewKitty is your age - you might just have an awesome new friend!  (sound of Mom running off, excitedly making the house preparations, singing "la la la"...)

Wriggley: ::sigh:: Now I'm really out numbered!

Wordless Wednesday

Leaves!

oh! ::quivers with excitement:: I love to watch the leaves blowing around by the window!  There's a big window like this in our front room and also back in mom's room.  Sometimes I race back and forth from window to window.  If only I could chase them outside for reals.  Lookit!

These ones are so close!  I can almost get 'em...

Fair Weather Friend

It's getting colder here.  Winter is settling in.

My favorite sleepy spot for this time of year is my Princess Bed.

It's very warm, and soft, and comfy.  I've even made a Smidgen-sized dent so the bed is like my special nest.

I don't nap with my Teddy Bear friend any more.

Don't worry, Teddy, I'll be back when it gets warmer.  Besides, I still like to make biscuits in your furs.
