I'm Back! Yippeee!!!!!!



After 48 hours, I decided to come home.  I can't tell you where I went cause it's a secret (I couldn't make it to see you Riley!) but I can tell you that I was dry, not wet and was certainly hungry!  
I ate all my biscuits that were left for me in my bowl, ate all my soft food that was in my bowl that my SMS gave me, drank lots of water and ate some more biscuits cause my SMS thought I was looking a little  hungry still. 
I don't feel very energetic, so I slinked around the dining room for a little bit...
My SMS tried to give me cuddles and pats and hugs but I really couldn't be bothered with that at the moment...
and then hopped on the couch (where I'm not really supposed to be) and nestled.
I am fine.  I never usually run off like this as I always know that my SMS will feed me and give me hugs and cuddles. If I didn't come home tonight I know that my SMS would have called up the RSPCA and put posters up of me around the streets.  My SMS told me that she walked the streets calling my name last night and knocked on the neighbours doors to see if I was at their place.  I wasn't. 
I want to thank you for all your purrs and purrays because it was able to lead me back home.  I couldn't have found my way otherwise.  You kitties are the best!

Good Night!  

I'm lost...



Hi.  This is Charlotte's Surrogate Mum and Slave (SMS).  It's been 24 hours since Charlotte has been missing.  Weather is rainy here so I'm hoping that she has taken cover and will be coming home soon.  She usually comes home when I get home from work and does some exercise by racing up and down the stairs, then scratches on the lounge.
Thank you for your purrs to guide her home.  I'll keep you updated on Charlotte's status...
Mancat Riley - dates may need to be postponed.  Sorry to break the news.  I'm sure you didn't scare her.  
From a very worried SMS...

Activites

There are a few things that I like doing around my little house:

1. Watching the passing traffic behind the screen door. For safety reason, I am never allowed outside the front door because my house is on a busy street.


2. Stationing myself on the stair and looking through the bannister.



3. Hiding under the dining table, ready to pounce at unsuspecting passing feet.


4. Sitting on the back of the lounge, looking at my SMS reading. Of course, I would answer the phone if it rings. Please feel free to call any time, day or night.
PS Charlotte has been missing, I am worried but I hope she will return safely - SMS

FINALLY! The Christmas tree comes down!

My SMS is soooo slow! She finally dismantled the Christmas tree.  I thought I'd help her take the tree down however I really like playing with the tree and the Christmas decorations.
This is me helping take down some of the decorations. See, cats can be helpful!

Only a few more decorations left and our work was done!  I still can't believe that she took so long to take it down. Her excuse was the holiday!  Well, while the cats away.....

To all kitties in Australia - tomorrow (26 January) is Australia day.  Happy Australia Day!
Here it is one of the biggest public holidays celebrated in all the states and territories.

My toys

Being a predominantly indoor cat I don't have the opportunities to play with real mousies, the most I would get are the odd lizards and cockroaches in the back patio. Hence my humans buy me toy mousies and other things to play with.


This is my favourite toy mousie. It has a bell attached to its tail.


Please note those claws. I am not to be tampered with, even though I am mostly very sweet and hardly ever use them.


The silk flower is not exactly a toy but it'll do. The following one is just to show off my green eyes to a certain kitty.

Kitties in Syria & Jordan

Kitty my SMS met at Petra, Jordan that lives on top of the mountain



Petra - The Treasury


When SMS came home, she tossed all her stuff around the living room and dining room, so naturally I checked out everything that was tossed. Smelly clothes, souvenirs she bought and bits of paper - everywhere!
My SMS was telling me that she missed me heaps on her travels! She noted that there were loads of cats and not that many dogs in Syria, however they must have all gone down south to Jordan as there were heaps of them there. 
She ended up chatting to a kitty in Palmyra near the ruins who said "Welcome to Syria" which was apparently a very common saying that was heard all over Syria - very friendly people. There was another kitty in Petra, Jordan that lived with a local Bedouin person up on the top of the mountain. She said to my SMS that she had the best views and could see all the way out to the Saudi desert.
 

This morning I jumped up on my SMS's bed at 7am (she went to bed at 6am!) HA HA HA!


Results and good news

Wow, I am so very IMPRESSED that almost all kitties who participated got it right on every count.

1. Willow
2. Victor Tabbycat
3. Tesla
4. Parker
5. Jeter Harris
6. Me - Charlotte

Daisy was the first and got it spot on, Parker only had Willow and me confused. Victor and Jeter Harris giggled and said that they recognized themselves! Even newcomer Tesla recognized Parker and me besides herself. Now, that is really great. I guess we kitties know how to distinguish ourselves from one another; only beans get befuddled by superficial physical resemblance. A big thankyou to all participants as well as all the pretty/handsome white+tabbies who kindly allowed their photos to be used for this game.



Finally, the long wait is over! My SMS came home late last night with lots of dirty clothes in tow. It remains to be seen if she would blog for me on a regular basis. I hope she would! Otherwise I'll have to find myself a secretary. Wish me luck! Perhaps Cat Blogosphere would put an ad up for me, I may as well advertise for a secretary right now! Wages? Umm, lickies, headbutts and as many purrs as you like!

A game

Since I have joined the community of Cat Blogosphere not so long ago I have noticed many fine looking white+tabby kitties like myself. Most of these are seasoned bloggers but there is at least one who is fairly new. Therefore, I would like to showcase these magnificent felines and invite all you kitty bloggers to identify them. They are:

Victor Tabbycat, Jeter Harris, Tesla, Parker, Willow and little me.

Beau Beau should also be on the list but I don't have his permission to post his photo, so reluctantly I have to go ahead without him, which is a pity because we look so much alike, as Mosaic Cats have commented on earlier.

The photos are numbered 1-6. Results will be given by Sunday. Please, everyone, test your recognization skills!

My first awards

I am so overwhelmed - first an invitation to a most fabulous tea party, then a beautiful scrapbook portrait and now an award, my very first, given by those lovely kitties at topcatrules!



I would like to return the compliment to Pyewacket, Trixie and Tigger because they really have made my day, to Karl and Ruis for inviting me to the party, to Momo for easing me into the blogging world and looking after me at the party and to my new friend Tesla for being so nice.

The next award is totally undeserved as I really didn't do anything or guessing. Sassy kindly says that I could post the Participation certificate for dropping into her blog during her exciting space adventure with Momo. Thanks, Sassy!

Missing kitties


These poor kitties have gone missing. Please if anyone sees them please let their owners know. I am purrring hard for their safety.

Tigger's mom has done this portrait of me and Momo, isn't simply gorgeous? She is one talented and artistic lady. Thanks +++++++++. I am sooooo happy! Yipeeee!
