I had already mentioned how Milou mastered the art of photobombing here and here and here.
Kitshka is quickly learning too:

My castle on top of the mountain
I had already prepared my post when I read this post at the Conscious Cat. The post was about humans building cat walls for their kitties. I thought that was very nice of them. Sometimes we kitties build our own stuff too!
I made myself a brand new castle and I love it! What do you think about it?
Guess who wanted to join me? (Hint, she’s on the first pics)
Yes! Kitshka!
Thankfully, she understood that everyone should have their own castle… or box. What Kitshka? Why, no, your box isn’t too small for you! Kids these days, they never get enough!
We’re back and we missed you!
Hiya furriends!
Another 1+ week without being able to blog or read your bloggies… I know my human was trying her best, but since she’s not a kitty, her best just wasn’t enough. Sigh. Sorry.
I have many awards to acknowledge and share, and many furriends to thank. I will be doing this in the days to come, probably one at a time.
In the meantime, here are some warming (I hope!) pictures for those who are in cold areas or (still :-/) without electricity (one of my humans’ friends in CT just got his electricity and Internet back and we know some still haven’t).
[My human is saying that it is stupid since they can’t see the pics if they don’t have electricity. Duh! I know, human! But I’m sending warm thoughts and purrs!]
After this very pointless, human interruption, here are the pics. Yeah, I didn’t looked pleased on the pics because Kitshka and I were having the bestest of naps and my human woke us up with her awwwwwwwws! Do humans and interrupting kitties go together, you think?
Warm purrs to y’all!
Fun discovery: Tocktober!
I only recently discovered that October was also Tocktober… The month to show our tocks!
I discovered that by reading my furriends’ bloggies.
I happen to show my tocks to my human not only in October but also whenever I am not happy with her work.
Here is a picture of Kitshka and I taken in early September (Kitshka was a little littler):
And here are pictures of, first, Kitshka and I, and then Milou, both taken in October:
I think Milou wins if there was a contest between us. What do you think? Do you like our tocks? Are there other funny cat blogosphere events we should know about (I liked showing my tocks to the humans!)?
Mondays are for Memories: Playing with Fruits – Part 2
My silly human forgot about the following video when I first posted about me as a kitten playing with fruits.
Silly human.
Hope you like the video.
We love the Cat-A-Pole!
Finally, the long-awaited post I told you about is here! Woo-ooh!
~~~
Most of my readers probably know that Katie of Glogirly was recently elected Cat Ruler of the World in a contest in which the real winners were the shelters each of the cat-idates was supporting (and especially the new ruler’s choice, here Blind Cat Rescue).
The great election contest was organized by Zee & Zoey and their human Ms. Deb Barnes (Hiya!). The contest was backed by generous sponsors who donated meals, litter and other prizes to shelters. Please follow the link just above for all the details.
Some of the kitties voting also won some prizes! I was one of the lucky Facebook winners!!
We first received the Cat-A-Pole, directly from Ms. Barnes who added a sweet little card!
Okay, the picture isn’t great, but it’s just to give you an idea of its size and everything. Just check the website of the toy for more details.
It was an instant success with me.
The little fur ball with feathers, at the end of the pole, moves in all unexpected directions! Plus it seems the humans get tired less quickly which means we can play longer! So the toy is more enjoyable to both the human (I know, we don’t care much about them but if that can make them play longer ;-) and the kitty.
Milou did play a bit with it too but the human didn’t have the time to take pictures. Truth is, tornado Kitshka spotted the toy and took immediately possession of it. Literally.
She enjoys the Cat-a-Pole so much that I or Milou cannot play with it when she is in the room. Want me to prove it? Check the following video. Don’t forget to turn your speakers on to hear her growling and hissing at the beginning (understand: “the toy is mine!”). And don’t miss the end when she helps the human edit the video.
[If you cannot see the video from my blog, click here]
The toy was – is – a huge success! Thanks to Ms. Barnes and Cat-a-Pole!
Weather cat news: it is getting cold!
Furriends,
Is it just us – or our part of the world – or is it getting cold these days?
We – Kitshka, Milou and I – spend most of our days napping (which means more than the usual 10-hour mandatory napping), sometimes cuddled next to each other.
Even Kitshka sleeps more!
She is NOT checking something on the floor.
She DID fall asleep like that.
Milou even made himself a warm tent with my human’s hubby’s sleeve-free (!) jacket.
Taken!
Zzzzzzzzzzz…. ***snoring sounds***
What is the weather like where you live?
Mondays are for Memories: Playing with Fruits
When I arrived at my furever home as a kitten, I was amazed at all the toys I could find in my human’s (soon to be mine) home.
One thing I found very exciting and funny was fruits that were around. Some could roll! Of course, it soon became forbidden (my human pretended that some fruits could be dangerous) – as was jumping and walking on the table to get to them. But I couldn’t care less.
Until the fruits disappeared from my sight. Hmph.
What was your favorite toy as a kitten?
Deaded toy + T-shirt with my name on it!
Many things happened while my human was doing something else than posting on my blog…
But first things first: thank you all for sending purrs and messages to Dayak. Her Mom left a message in the comments of my post to say that she was sleeping a lot due to the medication. We are waiting for more news and hope she is going to be better really soon. I keep sending purrs.
In other news, from my home this time, Kitshka has deaded another toy. Really deaded.
See, Spitty? This one has no magical powers I’m afraid and will not come back to life. It never was a favorite of mine or Grouik or Milou, but Kitshka liked it a LOT. As you can obviously guess. But that’s okay because we have other toys. More on this in the days to come ;-)
Some time ago, I was one of the lucky winners of a Purina Be Happy T-Shirt over at Cat Chat. Thanks to Cody and Caren!
So my human and I went to the site (actually their Facebook page) where we could make our own t-shirt. Because you see, the coolest part was that we could “make” the t-shirt the way it pleased us me. So I told my human to make it about me.
Guess what? Yep, she messed up. Check the t-shirt.
It is a very nice t-shirt but how is it about me?
Doesn’t smell like me…
Is the kitty supposed to be me? Just wondering because I don’t have any fishbowl to fish from here…
Here’s what I think about you making this t-shirt a tribute to me…
Busy busy busy…
Shhh shhh!
What?! Yes, human, you can wear this nice t-shirt… as long as you get me a fishbowl with a magical fishie inside, like Spitty’s
Actually, I don’t really need the fishbowl. I’ll be magnanimous (VBP): the magical fishie alone will do.
Thanks to Cody and Caren and Purina and Happy Caturday everyone!
We’re threatening to strike
Alright furriends, I am so not pleased with my human and her not giving me time to 1) post on my blog, 2) visit all my furriends’ bloggies (I tried this but didn’t manage to visit all of you yet – sorry).
Sooooo, being a French kitty, I’m threatening to STRIKE: no more purrs, no more letting my human pet me if we are not back by THIS Friday (and have additional dried tuna treats everyday and tuna juice twice a week)! You hear me human? Of course I will train Kitshka in the art of French strike.
Kitshka has started making banners out of Christmas gift paper she found behind a closet, hidden (!). Agreed, she needs a little more practice.
Today, we have planned a sit-in in front of the desk.
Oh and human, we KNOW where the Greenies are. So Friday is the lastest limit.
[My human was scared enough about the no-purring threat that she helped me post this one, so Kitshka and I have high hopes]
