Hiya furriends,
Although we have a good home and not too bad humans – we can’t really complain, can we? -, the past few weeks have been very sad at times. Many furriends crossed over the Rainbow Bridge. I cannot list them all sadly but among our fellow bloggers were Fangie at Catself, Kelly at the Creative Cat, Fluffy at Hey… It’s Jet Here, Bingo at Hutch A Good Life, Zac at Zac the All Black.
I’m sure they are all playing together over the rainbow bridge now, free of pain. I am pausing for a minute and will leave a treat behind tonight in their memory.
I was so sad I tried to find a place to remember them quietly and reflect about life.
I found the closet where the humans store our food. But my human found me.
That’s too bad because there were plenty of good food in there. But nothing to help me in my pain or vocation.
No nip.
Now regarding nip… again my furriends, we don’t know the exact effect on humans so don’t try this on your humans. I would like to insist that I do not promise you nip (although if any of the cat-idates to rule the world for a cause would make me Minister of Nip, I could rethink that last statement), only enlightenment for those who believe.
Finally, I was nominated for two more awards that I didn’t have yet. So I would like to thank The Sugarlump for nominating me for the Addictive Blog Award and It’s a Pussy Cat’s Life for the Super Sweet Blogger Award.
Thank you so furry much! I really appreciate and send you purrs!
Here are the Addictive Blog Award Rules:
1. Thank the person awarding you — Done
2. Share a little about why you blog and how the journey started — See below
3. Paste the blog award on your page — Done
4. Nominate 10 other bloggers you feel deserve the award and let them know you nominated them — See below
Why I blog
I think my little life is very interesting. No seriously. My human was too busy lazy in France to start my blog, so I only had my Facebook Page, but now that my brothers and I had traveled so far, I needed a blog to tell my story.
Plus now I want to share with you the heavenly enlightenment of the nip I received.
Most importantly, it is a way to meet new furriends =^.^=
Here are my ten nominees:
=^.^= Sammy
=^.^= My furriends Hemingway and Shakespeare at Two Cats’ View
=^.^= My furriends Nellie and Kozmo
=^.^= Mollie and Alfie
=^.^= Easy
=^.^= Bowie
=^.^= Archie, Oscar and Henry
=^.^= It’s a Pussy Cat’s Life
=^.^= Angel’s Whisper
=^.^= My furriends at Manx Mnews
Now the rules for the Super Sweet Blogger Award are:
1. The nominee has to thank the person that nominated them — Done
2. Answer the 5 Super Sweet Questions — See below
3. Nominate a bakers dozen of other Super Sweet Bloggers and let them know — A dozen?! See below
Me thinks this award is better suited (vocab building project VBP) for humans (especially the sweet food part), but here we go.
1. Cookies or Cake?
Tuna cake!
2. Chocolate of Vanilla?
Er, nip?
3. What is your favourite sweet treat?
Er, the new Greenies, salmon flavor.
4. When do you crave sweet things the most?
All the time, why?
5. If you had a sweet nickname what would it be?
I know my human would call me cupcake. Hmph.
Now for my nominees:
=^.^= Terri’s Kitchen
=^.^= Hey… It’s Jet Here
=^.^= Janina
=^.^= Sammy
=^.^= Savannah
=^.^= These Days of Mine
=^.^= The Sugarlump
=^.^= A German Expat’s Life in Texas
=^.^= Brown Pony Tail
=^.^= My new furriend Mr. Jeeves
=^.^= Imagination is Spicy
=^.^= Easy
Now TGIF, I need a nap.
Enjoy your Friday everyone!
Concats on the awards, Texas. Sorry for the loss of your friends, but they’re having a great time on the other side of the bridge.
This was a sweet post – you look so adorable sitting in the pantry and we share your sadness at the passing of those kitties. Concats on the awards and we enjoyed your answers!!
It has been a sad week.
Congratulations on your awards!
Wow, congrats on those two awards. You really deserve them too. They are pretty ones. It is so sad when all our fur friends go to the bridge. Take care and have a great week end.
Hey Texas, Jet here.
Thank you on two accounts (I’m taking a Business module at Scooby Doo Academy!):
For kindly paying homage to our sweet boy, Fluffy. Yes, we believe they are all playing over the Rainbow Bridge, too. :)
Bestowing this cool new award on our blog. You know JJ and I LOVE our Kitchen K9 jobs, so, this has extra meaning for us. Whoo hoo!
Concatulations on your awards, most deserved. Love the new questions! We’re so fortunate to have connected with you.
Thank you!
My human and I thought the new award suited you purrfectly ;-)

Thanks Texas we have few followers who regularly visit, but it makes it worthwhile when we get awards like this and have you guys comment and provide input regularly xxxx. Really appreciate this young man. Archie, Oscar and Henry xxx Also congratulations that you got recognised also well deserved :-)
Oh Texas, this is a beautiful way to remember and honor the loved ones who passed away the past few weeks.
Congrats on your awards and thank you very much for nominating my blog. Bowie says “Meow!” Now go out there and get yourself some extra nip my dear friend…
Oh, good grief: you just can’t trust a human to do anything. Motor Mommy read your post, and didn’t even notice that you nominated our blog for that sweet award! I tell ya: if you want something done right, ya gotta do it yourself!
Thanks so much, Texas, I’ll have my human start helping me with an acceptance post too! Have a great weekend, my furriend!
Love, Sundae
I know! How they manage to do the things they have to do outside, without us, is beyond me!
Have a great weekend too!

I share your sadness at friends crossing the Rainbow Bridge, but as with the joys that come with sharing time together so there is sadness at the partings.
Thank you very much indeed for the Super Sweet nomination! I haven’t had a blog award before.
Such a sad time, with so many blog friends suffering such horrible loss. What a beautiful tribute you did for them.

Dear Texas,
It’s a good thing that you found a quiet place for reflecting and praying for your furriends gone too soon! I guess that they saw you from the other side of the rainbow bridge.
I congratulate you for your new awards and I thank you very much for nominating me for the Super Sweet Blogger Award ! It’s a great honor, and I am very touched.
Wishing you a good Friday and a great Caturday! Big Hugs.
Janina
Texas
Thank you for thinking of us for this wonderful award. I will make sure Momma follows through on it for us.
We understand how you feel about loss. It is one thing that surprised us, and something that we had never considered when we first began blogging. We’ve seen a lot of passages since we started.
Hope this weekend brings you joy.

Concatulations on your awards! You will definitely be on my short list for minister of nip if I am elected Cat Ruler of the World!
I knew I could trust you! Thank you!
(Would tuna treats help me get on top of the list? Just asking…)
Thank you so much for remembering Zac and so appropriately in the treat cupboard where he loved to go.
The Princess and I, his Beloved are hurting so much right now but we have been helped by all the support of his online friends.
