Meowllo and welcome to a happy Sunshiney Furiday. Me told ya’ll last week dat we had received a few awards but hadn’t posted ‘bout them cuz mommy was too busy with other stuffs. So today, we’re gonna get to another of those pawsum awards. Our amazin’ furiends Purrseidon, Mr. M and quiet, shy Saphera bestowed on us da Sunshine Blogger Award. Fank you Purr, we’re honored.
Da rules fur acceptin’ da Sunshine Blogger award are to thank and link back to da bloggy what nominated you. We’ve done dat. Next we have to answer 11 questions asked by Purrseidon, come up with 11 questions of our own and pass them and da award along to 11 other bloggers. So let’s get to those questions.
Where would you live if you could live wherever you wished?
Me and Raena both agreed it doesn’t matter where we live so long as we always live with mommy.
What is your favorite holiday?
Well, till we joined social media, da only holidays we really celebrated was Christmas and Birthdays. Little Raena hasn’t celebrated any holidays yet (We don’t celebrate da 4th), but me ‘magines her favorite is gonna be Christmas just like me.
What is the top thing on your bucket list?
Me had to ask mommy what a bucket list is Purr, and me discovered we don’t have one. Ifin we was gonna make one, da only thing on it would be to meet all our wonderful furiends from da innernet.
What is your favorite book?
Da only book mommy reads to us is da Bible, so dat would be our favorite. We do luv da stories of Jesus.
What is your favorite movie?
Me’s not much fur movies, and Raena likes everythin’ on da teevee, so we asked mommy what her favorite movie was, and she said she has always luvved Where the Red Fern Grows.
If you could take your ideal vacation, where would you go?
As chaotic as it was, we would luv to go to BlogPaws or any of the other big animal conventions.
If you had three wishes, what would they be?
Our furst wish would be to have sis Lexi back with us, healthy and whole. We know dat would never happen, but it would be our wish. Our second wish is dat all kitties had luvvin’ furever homes like we do. Our third wish would be dat we all, animals and humans, could live together peacefully.
Do you speak more than one language, too?
Well we speak cat and some human English. Mommy speaks English, some Spanish, Some Hebrew, Some Greek, and a teeny bit Italian. She’s also fluent in Cat.
What is your favorite color?
Purrple is of course our favorite color. We also like blue, and animal print. Is dat a color mommy?
What’s your favorite way to relax?
Our favorite way to relax is to lay on mommy’s lap.
So there ya’ have it, our answers to all those questions. Those were some really great questions, so we’re gonna pass them along to our nominees. And this is where it gets tricky. Every blog we follow, read, and/or comment on brings a little sunshine to our day. So there’s no way we could limit this to just 11 blogs. And of course, cuz we’re late postin’, a lot of you have already received it. So here’s what we’re gonna do. Ifin ya’ haven’t received da award, purrlease take it and answer da same questions we did. And remember, you all bring sunshine each day.
It’s da weekend, so dat means we‘s joinin’ Rascal and Rocco and their pawsum co hosts fur da Pet Parade. Head on over and check it out. Mommy woke up this meownin’ with a pawful migraine, so we’ll be ‘round to see ya’ as soon as we can. Here’s to a wonderful Happy Sunshiney Furiday and weekend.
Me doesn’t know yet Raena. Now cool it and let me tell everypawdy what’s been goin’ on.
As ya’ know mommy’s been workin’ on getting’ da air conditioner in da car fixed. So Wednesday she had to be over at da mechanics at 8:30 dat meownin’. Well you all know mommy can’t move in da meownin, so she stayed up all night on Tuesday so she could be at da mechanic’s on time. Then she sat out in da hot garage till 3 dat afternoon when da mechanic furinally found da purroblem and fixed it. WooHoo We’s got cold air comin’ from da vents now. ‘Course, by da time mommy got home, she and her brain were fried. Useless, dat’s da bestest way to describe mommy fur da last couple of days. And just when she furinally got ready to get back in da game, her and Raena be headin’ to da VET fur Raena’s last round of core vaccinations includin’ rabies.
What you talkin’ ‘bout Dezi?
Oh, uh, never mind. Raena, go check with mommy, me thinks she has some treats fur ya’.
Treats? Really? See ya’ sissy.
So, like me was sayin’, Raena be at da VETs this meownin’. These vaccinations have made her sick everytime, so we would fur sure purreciate your purrayers fur them today. Fankfully, they’ll have cool air, so Raena won’t get any heat exhaustion. Mommy was so scared fur her after da last shots.
In da meantime, we’ve gotten a couple of awards here lately, dat we haven’t posted ‘bout, and so me thought today would be a great day to start. These awards all have a few question/answers to them, so me thought we would feature one at a time, startin’ with da most recent. So let’s get on with it.
Our sweet gawjus furiend Little Binky from Angel Whisper nominated us fur da Brotherhood of the World award. We are so honored, thank you Binky and granny. We luv ya’ll too. Da rules are: Thank da purrson/kitty/doggy what nominated you, and answer their questions. Nominate and notify up to 10 bloggers. Purrsent those bloggers with your questions and display da badge. Well me’s thanked Binky, so let’s get on to da questions.
1. What do you think when you wake up in the morning?
Well, me’s furst thought is, “mommy, are you awake yet?”
2. Do you have a kind of ritual when you wake up?
You betcha’ we do. We give mommy a massage to get her limbs to movin’ so she can get up and get ‘round. No brekky without mommy, ya’ know.
3. What makes you happy?
Oh Binky, dat’s a big ole question. Mommy, Raena and me all discussed this and came up with da same answer. Bein’ together and havin’ each other and all of you, makes us really happy.
4. Have you ever had a sign from the angels and how did you feel after that?
Well we don’t know ‘zactly how to answer this one. We believe in God 100%, but we don’t believe in spirit visitations. Since angels are merely God’s messengers, we believe that all signs are from God. Mommy has had many, including da one dat brought Raena to join our furmily. Dat was a good sign, so we’re happy ‘bout it. Altho’ me does occasionally question mommy’s hearin’. MOL
5. What is your hobby?
Hobby? Me likes to luv on mommy and play with me’s Yeowww nip toys. Raena has made doin’ everythin’ me does her hobby, and jumpin’ on me outta nowhere. And besides us, mommy sings, writes and plays da piano. She’s workin’ on a song she’s writin’ fur me right now.
So there ya’ have it, our answers. Now, we’re gonna nominate a few blogs. Ifin ya’ don’t do awards, dat’s okay. We look at da nominatin’ time as a way to show our luv and purreciation to a few blogs dat we enjoy and think meet da qualifications of said award. But there are so many of you out there dat we luv and think are pawsum, dat there’s no way we could pawssibly list you all. So purrlease feel furee to take the award. Just ‘member, to follow da rules listed above.
1. If you could meet anyone in the world, who would it be?
2. What’s your favorite past time?
3. What one thing do you think would make this world a better place for animals?
4. What is your favorite hobby? (Sorry to steal Binky, but dat was a good question)
5. What is your favorite food or treat?
Again, fank ya’ Binky. Since it’s Furiday, we’s joinin’ Rascal and Rocco and their pawsum co hosts fur da Pet Parade. We’ll be ‘round to visit as soon as we can. We hope you all stay cool and have a great weekend.

Oh mommy today be da last day on da 3 day quote challenge. Me has a really good one fur today.
You do? Well you need to tell everyone the rules of the challenge first honey.
Okay. Me also wants to thank da Menagerie Mom from Four Legged Furballs. Here’s da rules:
1. Post fur 3 consecutive days
2. Choose and share 1 to 3 quotes each day
3. Challenge 3 bloggers each day
So there ya’ have it. As we have dun fur da last 2 days, we’s leavin’ da challenge open fur anypawdy who wuld like to do it. Just follow da rules and start quotin’.
Yesfurday when mommy and me were out and ‘bout after hers doctors pointment we were talkin’ ‘bout all da quotes one uses in a day. Lots of us use quotes in our normal everyday language dat we don’t give a second though ‘bout. We don’t know when they started or who actually coined them. You know da kind, mommys are famous fur sayin’ to their daughters, “Beauty is in da eye of da beholder.” And then there’s da one, “if ______________ jumped off a bridge would you want to as well?” Anyways, you get da idea. Mommy uses a lot of them. Since we began writin’ mommy’s had to be very careful ‘bout “givin’ credit where credit’s due.” Anyways, me’s quote fur today is:
“Adopt Don’t Shop”
We searched high and low fur da name of da purrson respawnsible fur this quote and came up empty. It was furst used as a campaign slogan to get more peeps to adopt shelter and rescue animals stead of buyin’ from breeders. Today, it’s almost as pawpular as sum of those old conversational quotes we talked ‘bout earlier. So dat wraps up our 3 day quote challenge. This has been fun.
Me has to go now, you heard mommy purromise to take me fur a stroll later, so me has to get ready. As we do every Furiday, we’s joinin’ Rascal and Rocco fur da Pet Parade Blog Hop.
Do you have a purrticular quote you use a lot in your everyday conversations?
