Go Away Monday

We don't know why the weekend is so short and why Monday insists on messing up a good thing.

How dare Monday interrupt my beauty sleep!

Easy Like Sunday

We're taking it easy today.

 Brulee is peeking with one eye to make sure the flashy box is gone before she takes her beauty nap.

Truffle is "out like a light" for the day.

Brulee likes to sit on the glass table, especially after Mom Paula has shined it up!

Friday at the Movies - The Best Medicine

When Mom Paula was home sick with shingles a couple of weeks ago, Brulee stayed by her side in the bed.  When Mom Paula would wake up, Brulee would move beside her or climb on her lap and turn on her healing purr motor.  Mom Paula says that was the best medicine.

What's so unique about this is that Brulee is a lot like Sweet Praline was.  Brulee doesn't like to be held, isn't a lap cat, and tends to play a game of "catch me if you can" when Mom Paula tries to pick her up to love her.  The video below is of poor quality, but if you turn up your sound, prepare to be totally relaxed by her purr.

Thankful Thursday

I'm thankful for my new Laurel Burch feather/ribbon wand toy we won from Cat Chat with Caren and Cody!  It has a big orange fev-ver, an orange and white ribbon, and a Laurel Burch designed toy on it It's lots of fun.  If I could just keep Truffle away from it . . .

 Brulee grabs the orange fev-ver!

 Look at the long ribbons!

Attack!

National Straw Hat Day

Today is National Straw Hat Day on the CB. We live in the sunny South in the United States so we definitely need a straw hat to keep from getting a sunburn (something Mom Paula hasn't learned yet!) 

We had the hardest time deciding which hat to wear to show off our beautiful floof.  Did we make the right choice?

Truffle Tuesday

Several weeks ago we entered a drawing for a special Laurel Burch package from Petsmart  on March 29 at Cat  Chat with Caren and Cody.  We had no idea we'd been selected to receive a package because the announcement was made when Mom Paula had her surgery to remove the skin cancer.  We were quite surprise to receive a package in the mail a couple of weeks ago and opened it to see a treasure of Laurel Burch cat stuff.  

Truffle thinks the coolest thing was the Laurel Burch cat carrier.  Mom Paula only had enough green papers to buy one cat carrier when Truffle came to live with her and luckily, only one of us at a time has needed to travel in it.  We'll both go in it with no problems together, but she was worried about an emergency or if we had to travel a long time and knew we needed a second carrier.  This was a God-send to us, especially the fact that Truffle loves it.

(notice the toy in front, but we'll talk about that in another post)

It's just my size!

Hurry up and zip it up! (Truffle was actually biting on the top to pull it over her)

I'm taking it easy in my new kitty bed!  Isn't it beautiful?

Truffle was so comfortable zipped up in the carrier that she started purring.

Don't the colors of this beautiful Laurel Burch kitty bag match my floof purrfectly?

Brulee didn't like the carrier too much.  She still prefers the hard carrier with more room.  Thank you so much to Caren and Cody and Petsmart for this wonderful package.  We'll share more about the other two items later.
