Awards!

. We got awards!!! Luckily Mommy has been a major slacker lately, so we have enough to pass on to a lot of our favorite blogs. Yay! . We received this great award from the lovely and talented Cliff and Olivia and The Cat Realm. Thank you so much! . This is the quote that goes with the award: This blog invests and believes the PROXIMITY - nearness in space, time and relationships! These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in prizes or self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers! Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award. You should/could give it to eight more - or just enjoy it. . We would like to pass it on to: Huffle Mawson Housecat Confidential Daisy the Curly Cat Forever Foster Peanut Butter and Jenny The Poupounette Three Country Cats Our Life by Eric and Flynn . And since we received the award twice, and we love giving awards, we are giving it to eight more amazing blogs: Sweet Praline Pablog The Ballicus Blog Sumac Stories Perfectly Parker Black Cat Mommys Little Fat Boy Mickey's Musings . We received this pretty award from the charming and delightful Cliff and Olivia. Thank you! . The rules say to list six things that makes us happy, so here goes: 1. sunbeams 2. tuna 3. squirrels and birdies 4. Mommy 5. catnip! 6. sniffing stuff . We pass on the award to: Aoise Curlz and Swirlz Adan's Everyday and Lego Gandalf and Grayson of Will Think 4 Wine We Have Staff Whippy Curly Tails The St. Louis Meezers The ZOO Corey Cat Blog Whimpurr's Whim Willow's Cat Blog 3 Cat Blog Angus Mhor PoppyQ Skeezix's Scratching Post The Psychokitty Speaks Out We are kitties...we can't count...we're pretty sure that was six though. . We got this very cool award from Karen Jo of Kitty Limericks. Thank you, Karen Jo! . Here are the rules:"When accepting this auspicious award, you must write a post bragging about it, including the name of the misguided soul who thinks you deserve such acclaim, and link back to said person so everyone knows he or she is. Choose a minimum of 7 blogs that you find brilliant in content or design. Or improvise by including some who have no idea who you are because you don’t have 7 friends. Show the 7 random victims’ names and links and leave a harassing comment informing them that they were prized with “Honest Weblog.” Well, there’s no prize, but they can keep the nifty icon. List at least ten honest things about yourself. Then, pass it on! " . Here are our 10 honest things: . Grrreta: 1. My mommy has no idea how old I am. (She adopted me when I was full grown from someone who didn’t know my age.) 2. I have three little nicks on my left ear. (Mommy thinks I may have fought Mike Tyson in my past). 3. I love to help Mommy put on her make-up in the morning. I sit on her make-up table and try to lick her make-up brushes and rub my face on them. 4. I love to snuggle up beside Mommy and have her rub my tummy. 5. I'm very good at telling Mommy exactly what I want. When I sit a few feet away and stare intently at Mommy, she'll get up to pet me, but I walk away and lead her to what I need. I usually lead her to my food bowl for snacks, or to my scratching post where I love to play, or to the litterbox when she needs a little friendly reminder to clean it. 6. I make quite a racket in the litterbox. When I finish, I scratch the interior walls of the covered litter box for a very, very, very, very, very long time. . Ambrose: 7. Mommy says I am the sweetest, most gentle kitty she's ever met. 8. Mommy is a vegetarian, and I never like any of her food, but I insist on tasting everything she eats. Then I play with it and hide it under the bed or coffee table. 9. I love to be near Mommy. I follow her everywhere, and I demand constant attention. 10. I love to hide in the shower. Somehow Mommy always finds me hiding behind the TRANSPARENT shower curtain. . We would like to pass it on to: Friends Forever The Island Cats Rosey Cat Derby the Sassy Cat Furry Paws Little Cat Feet Laila and Minchie . We received this award from the amazing and talented Forever Foster . Thank you! . It comes with some nice words, too: LOVE YA "award winner... These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award. . We would like to pass this on to: Cliff and Olivia Luxor Kodak, 3Perf, and Blossom Kitty Limericks JB's Big World and JB's Small World I Is Beethoven Bwog of the Genius Cat Everycat

Concats on all the awardies and thanks for passing one along to me and my family! My mom has been a total slacker in helping be pass along the awards and tags we have received, but hopefully I'll get her around to doing something about it. She blames on sitting in a room without a computer trying to humor my new scairty cat brother.

My goodness me, a plethora of awards. Miewmie told me to use that werd. Not only that but you have passed one on to me. THANKYOU. I like the bit about helping your mommy with makeup.

Congratulations on your so well deserved awards!!!
Grrreta, our Luna does the same thing in the litterbox! It drives us all CRAZY - she scratches it FOR HOURS!!! But she does the same thing outside, the maid always says "Luna - you want to dig to China?"
And Ambrose - our staff is vegetarian too but we like some of their food - Karl for example is crazy for croissants!!!
Mrs. OZ
Thank you also so much for your condolences concerning our sweet sister-in-law Soraya, we very much appreciated it!
