Well it’s finally Furiday and da end of anuvver week. Mommy and me and Lexi sat wound last night talkin’ ‘bout what to write fur today. We debated so long we all finally fell asleep wight in fwunt of da puter. MOL Weez been readin’ sum disturbin’ Facebook posts and emails so mommy wanted to write an educational posty. Well sis Lexi and me was given da Quote challenge by awnty Ellen and da kitties of 15 and meowing and we wanted to do dat. So we sat and purrsented our awrguments till we all fell asleep. So now weez playin’ ketch up and writin’ meez posty this meownin’.
Pull up a chair and let me tell ya’ a stowry.
Weez been kinda busy this week and hadn’t made it by Facebook not even once till last night. While we was there visitin’ our furiends and ketchin’ up we was just a little overwhelmed wiff da luv we felt fur all our pawsum furiends. Sum of you awe on Facebook only, and sum of you awe bloggers only. Sum of you we know fwum all over da innewnet. But one fing remains da same, and dat’s how much we twuly luv you all. Now let me tell ya’, dat has been a topic of discussion wound here a lot. Cuz what is Luv? And you know da old sayin’, don’t just say it, show it. Well how do yous show it to sumone yous never see, or have never even met? And then you come back to, How can you luv sumpawdy yous not know? So we asked mommy, “just how do we know dat we luv our furiends?” And mommy replied……
“Oh my sweet beautiful girls, you ARE Love made flesh.
In this day of technology when you connect with
others across the land,
You friend and follow far and wide those who have
in common, things you understand.
You post, chat, message and email sharing bits and
pieces of your life,
And before you know it you find yourself enveloped
by feelings deep inside.
You find yourself crying, when tragedy befalls a friend.
And laughing in joys and feeling proud when goals
are attained.
Is that not what friends and family are? This relationship
across the miles
Isn’t that what love is? A feeling not easily explained.
Love can’t be defined in mere words, It’s far more
complicated than that.
It lives all around us, in the air that we breathe. It’s in the
beauty of the smallest things.
If you’re wondering what love is, It’s that flutter inside
that makes you smile.
It’s longing for and missing that one across the miles,
It’s being there for others through good times and trials.
Sometimes an uplifting word, and sometimes a listening ear.
Love knows no boundaries, Love knows no fear.
True love is everlasting, no beginning and no end.
True love is blind and deaf and dumb,
when given away to family and friends.”

Well we fink dat sums it up purretty good. Altho’ showin’ luv is purrtant fur sure, sayin’ da words shuld also be sumfin’ you member to do. Each and everyday, mommy tells us how much she luvs us least a million times. Oh don’t worry she fur sure shows us luv too, but da words weally make us purr. We fink it’s weally purrtant fur you to say it and show each day. Yous never know what da future holds. And you never wanna regwet a fing when it comes to those you love. So ifin yous haven’t dun it today, take a minute to say I Luv You and give a hug. It really only takes a minute, but it just might be zactly what was needed by da one you luv. Weez wanna say to all of you dat we luv you very much. And as we do every weekend, weez joinin’ Rascal and Rocco fur da Pet Parade Blog Hop.
WooHoo It’s October 1st. You know what dat means? Dat means it’s 31 days till meez 6ff Meowday/Birffday. Fur those of ya’ dat haven’t been followin’ us dat long may be wunnerin’ why dat be such a big deal. Well let me tell ya’. Mommy’s had lots of kitties in hers life. She was a foster mommy fur a long time and specialized in kittens wiffout mommies. And all da spoiled little furries got pawsum homes. Mommy was only a foster failure twice. Da furst time wiff Lexi’s bwofur Lucky, and then wiff sis Lexi. A lot of yous have read da stowries of Shad, mommmy’s furst Service kitty. And yous read ‘bout Devon, Lucky and Ransom. They wasn’t da only kitties mommy’s ever had, but they all have one unfurtunate fing in common. They all died at da age of 5 years old. There was udder kitties afur them, and da same fing happened to them. They all died of diffewent fings, but da fact is they died at 5. So mommy gets a bit panicky when a kitty turns 5 years old. And to tell da twuff she’s been a bit pesky this whole year. Pokin’ and pwoddin’ me, checkin’ me over everyday. Sumtimes me settles into hers lap fur sum sweet mommy luvvin’ and afur ya’ know it meez getting’ an examination. MOL

So me guesses it makes since fur her to be a little pawanoid, but meez here to purrove dat sis Lexi ain’t da only one who’s gunna pass 5. Cuz in just 31 short days on November 1, me will be 6. And mommy can quit pokin’ and pwoddin’ me all over cuz me be a healffy little girly. Now we celebwate birffdays all mumff long, so weez in fur a gweat November.

Oh me cats and kittens what a night we had. As you know, cuz me tells ya’ all da time; mommy be old and slow. Now meez not bashin’ mommy cuz she’ll tell ya da same fing. It’s just what happens; it’s pawrt of life. Anyways mommy set me up wiff twitter when we stawrted da bloggy but we was never very active cuz mommy dusn’t unnewstand all those hashtags and taggin’. Now ifin yous a member of BlogPaws you know they have these “chats” offen to innerduce us to bwands and stuffs. Well let me tell ya’, our furst chat…it was pitiful. It was over afur mommy even figgered out where to go. And she didn’t know she was posed to be clickin’ on da bar dat sed new tweets. And there was windows openin’ off to da side of da feed and then disappearin’ afur mommy kuld even figger out they was talkin’ to us. MOL Well after dat mommy almost gave up on twitter. She pawlogized to me and sissy fur bein’ so not a techy and able to keep up. We luv our mommy and she didn’t need to pawlogize to us. It’s okay. Weez sure there awe udders out there just like us.
Pull up a chair and let me tell ya’ a stowry.
We didn’t attend anymore “chats” fur a while. Sumtimes it was cuz we was busy wiff udder fings, but mostly it was cuz mommy didn’t wanna get all flustered. Well after goin’ to BlogPaws we stawrted twyin’ to purrticipate in da twitter chats again. Afur yous ask, No, mommy didn’t get any more techy and still didn’t unnewstand those hashtags and stuffs; but mommy’s not a quitter and she will twy hers hawrdest to figger fings out. Did fings get any better yous ask? Not weally. Mommy still didn’t know what she was duin’, but we was there and twyin’. Dat’s what counted. Let me tell ya’ sumfin’ ‘bout this twitter. It moves fast and dusn’t slow down fur peeps twyin’ to learn. And there’s a maximum number of letters you can tweet. Well yous all know weez chatty kits so we find dat a bit stiflin’. MOL Dat bein’ sed, weez keep twyin’.
Now duwin’ these chats they have these give aways. You know so we can twy sum of da purroducts fwum da bwands dat be pawrt of da chat. Da furst time we twied to win da twivia question was asked and like a 4 year old we blurted out da answer. Actually we posted da answer to da feed. Well dat’s not how yous posed to do it. MOL By da time we figgered out how to send a message, da whole chat was over. MOL You weally shuld see mommy twyin’ to figger it all out and keep up. And of course luv on me, cuz me be sittin’ in hers lap twyin’ to play patty cake wiff her. And anudder fing, they always have these chats at dinner time. Don’t they know when weez have dinner? Hmmph Yous wuld fink they wuld schedule these fings wound our schedule. MOL Now dat meez given you a little backgwound, let me get back to last night.
It’z anudder twitter chat. Good luck youz two. MOL
Yep, there was a chat last night. Mommy had set up hers weminder and we got logged in wight on time. Fings was actually movin’ a little slow and mommy was quite happy wiff dat. And all of a sudden everypawdy else’s clock musta been slow, cuz afur we kuld blink, da race was on. Tweets flyin’ here and there and little pop up boxes appearin’ and disappearin’ faster than we kuld read ‘em and so many gawjus kitty fotos movin’ down da stweam afur we kuld even paw da like button much less make a comment. And then da give aways began. Me told mommy to hurry cuz me wanted to win. Sis Lexi was watchin’ fwum a safe distance on da back of da chair, me was layin’ in hers lap, and mommy’s fingers was on fire clickety clackin’ on da puter keys. And guess what? Me won!!! Me finally won a twitter chat give away. OMC Me kuldn’t believe it. So now yous askin’ yous selff, did mommy finally figger it all out? Did she visit da fountain of youff? Did she suddenly get all teched up? Nah, it was just dumb luck. MOL But it was fun. And then it was time fur dinner. So weez pawed off and mommy made sis Lexi and me our pawsum dinner plates. All dat ‘citement musta welly got sis Lexi’s engines revvin’ cuz she ate 3 of those 3 ounce cans of noms and a packet too.
Me has to win mommy.

Meowllo and a gweat Monday to you all. Yeah we know, what’s so good ‘bout Monday wight? Dat’s zactly what mommy sed when woke her up early. But as she watched what followed, she knew it was gunna be a good day. We usually sleep till mommy wakes up and tells us she wants to get outta bed. But as most of ya’ know, da wevver be changin’ and da days awe getting’ shorter and shorter, and it’s causin’ us to be a little more feisty. So today mommy woke up to sis Lexi and me playin’ chase da fevver. Wantin’ mommy to join in da fun, me fwu da fevver on da bed and ran up da steps after it wiff sis Lexi in tow.
Pull up a chair and let me tell ya’ a stowry.
Mommy didn’t see or feel da fevver, but she furst opened hers eyes when me accidentally stomped on hers bladder. Now kitties lissen up. Fur those of you wunnerin’ just how it is you can get yous human to get up and feed you; just step on da bladder. Meez gotta tell ya’, not many peeps can sleep fwu dat. Mommy sure can’t. After me stomped all over mommy’s bladder it was sis Lexi’s turn while she was retwievin’ da fevver toy. Fevver in mouff sis Lexi took off back down da steps and hauled to da livin’ room wiff me on hers paws. Mommy giggled and cwied. Don’t worry, they were da happy tears. But it was all bwought to a halt when mommy hollered fur us to get her to da pawdee box room. Sissy and me dwopped da fevver and returned to mommys side to help hers up. We returned to play while mommy made our bwekky. She took extwa long to make it cuz she kept peekin’ wound da corner watchin’ sissy and me. By da time mommy realized she shuld be takin’ fotos we were runnin’ outta steam and our hungwy bellies were takin’ over. When mommy finally got da camerwa we were boff sittin’ down lookin’ at her wiff our “where’s da bwekky” eyes.
Mommy was actually talkin’ to one of our furiends/awnties da udder day ‘bout takin’ fotos furst fing in da meownin’. Mommy was sayin’ she can’t ever member to take a camerwa to bed wiff her, but dat it wuldn’t weally matter cuz she can’t move when she wakes up anyways. Then she sed sumfin’ like who takes a camewa to bed anyways. And our furiend/awnty sed, “Well I do, but it’s because I take my phone with me.” Well dat makes sense but weez not have one of those smawrty pants, foto takin’, web surfin’ fones. Mommy’s been lookin’ at ‘em, but OMC afur yous even stawrt talkin’ ‘bout callin’ plans yous gotta buy da fone. And those smawrty pants fones can cost more than a mortgage or car payment. And we can’t affurd eever of those so it’s not very likely dat weez’ll be gettinn’ one of those smawrter than you fones any time soon. MOL So there’s no pawsumly blurry fotos of this meownin’s activities, but paws cwossed, sumday weez’ll get all smawrted up too.
Are you all smawrted up? Duz yous peep wake up snappin’ fotos? What’s yous sure fired way to get yous human outta bed fur bwekky?
