Award Time! (Finally!!)

Award Time! (Finally!!)

First, some blog admin related comments: Some of your comments have been going to the spam filter (very few) or the waiting for approval filter recently, even though you had already commented here before. Please rest assured that I check both filters, so do not fear if your comment isn’t appearing instantly. Hopefully, the problem will be fixed soon.

Now regarding yesterday’s post, some of you asked what was the giant bug and some of you guessed right: it was a huge grasshopper!

[You can click on the pic to biggify if it’s not large enough for you ;-)]

Grasshopper

It was on the outside side of the window but Kitshka is generally not afraid of the bugs, she tries to play with them but gets bored quite rapidly! A little bit like me with my snail!

In other news, it’s been decades since I have posted about awards I received and shared. My human being a bit lazy about that, I forced her to bookmark the posts of the bloggers who gave me an award to post about it later. Today is later, in part.

So without any particular order, I will do an award post now and then to thank the furriends who awarded me and to share the awards!

Here we go!

On May 7 (aren’t you ashamed, human?), MoggiePurrs gave me the Versatile Blogger Award. I already have it but I like this new design. Thank you so furry much to MoggiePurrs!

On November 8, 2012 (seriously, human, aren’t you very ashamed?!), my good furriend Sammy shared one of Nerissa’s awards, the Bring On The Nip Award! Thank you so much, Sammy! You know I love nip, don’t you?

What is required to accept this award?

1. Thank the blogger who gave you this award and link back to their blog.
Done!

2. Tell everyone something you wanna celebrate.
I would have to say that my human finally decided to tackle those late award acceptances…

3. Share the award with one to twelve blogs.
Here are the bloggers I share this award with (since many in the cat blogospere got it, since my human is extremely late, I will try and share it with bloggers I think might not have it):

MoggiePurrs: It’s all about cats. What else can a kitty ask for (except nip)?
EOS, my new French furriend.
– Pierre, Ashton and Newton at Sometimes, Cats Herd You
– My French furriends the beautiful Hisia and Loustiquette, at Bleue comme Aby.
– My furriends from Critters in the Cottage.

If you already have it, I apologize. Just think of it as more nip coming your way ;-) If you don’t accept awards, that’s okay, I just want to show my thanks and appreciation by sharing your bloggie on mine.

Have a super end of the week everyone!

Humanology, cat planning and BlogPaws

Humanology, cat planning and BlogPaws

My human just left for BlogPaws this morning. I am a bit jealous because she is going to meet some of my furriends’ humans while I stay here with Kitshka, Milou, and the male human. But she’s also going to represent me so she will still be working for me while there.

Yep. I noticed the bug.
Humans are strange you know, that’s what makes humanology so interesting.
See, for example, this bug: I wanted to catch it to offer it to my human as a gift when she comes back. But this required keeping it fresh in the fridge (you can get some serious tummy aches with bugs that are passed the catch-by date). The male human refused to keep it in the fridge. He said something to the effect that my human wouldn’t like my gift. As if he knew what my human wants. She’s my human, so I know what she wants!

So he’s staying with us, which is fine because he likes to play wrestle with me with his hand. He thinks he is stronger than I am. If I was a human, I would burst out laughing like they annoyingly do. This hand without claws against my claws and teeth? Please.

I only hope he will remember to feed us. Kitshka has never been abandoned left for several days by my human before, so she’s particularly worried.
As you might remember, Milou has a special diet so he cannot eat our food. So K’s and my food is on some piece of furniture he can’t reach.

Kitshka designed a plan to be sure we wouldn’t be missing meals in case the male human forgot.
See the 2 pieces of furniture on which our bowl is? With time, a little gap appeared between the two.

For the past 2 weeks, every time Kitshka was eating, she stored a couple kibbles in the gap. She’s my girl!

Unfortunately, Milou, with his appetite back, smelled the kibbles.

This morning, Kitshka tried to make him leave for fear he would wake up the humans. She threw a kibble at him.

Unfortunately, my human was half awake and saw everything… including the stock of kibbles K had accumulated.

The humans moved the furniture to find this:

And they threw all this hard-saved kibbles away! A shame!

Hopefully, the male human will remember to feed us… To be continued.
