*tap tap tap* Testing, 1, 2, 3... is this thing still on?!

Oh my, it's been nearly two years since my last post!  tsk tsk tsk and shame on me, to say the least...

Anywho, I'm hoping this post will help to recapture some of the Christmas spirit that has been missing in our home, ever since Maw's grandma passed.  It's slow-going, but progress is coming, lil by lil.  So, it's time to get pawsitive :0)

Fur any sweet soul who might still be following my blog, please accept this heartfelt holiday message:

Have Yourself A Very Merry Catmus and A Most Joyous Mew Year!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now, let's see if I'm able to post again sometime before the next presidential election, shall we?  

*shouts over his shoulder*  The challenge has been made, Maw.  Get it together, woman!!!

Alrighty then, it's time for me to ramble on....

Toodles fur now!!!

What's a "Super Bowl"?

It's Super Bowl Sunday!  What's so super about it?  Well, lemme tell ya:

First, Maw filled up my Kibble Bowl to the brim (Super!).  

A little later on, she filled my NumNum Bowl with some Classic Beef Fancy Feast (SuperDuper!).

Now, I'm sprawled out on the couch, next to Paw, with a delightfully toasty heating pad underneath me and I can hear Maw filling up my Water Bowl with fresh, clean, cool H2O, should I care for a drinkypoo.

The TV in our bedroom is playing the Puppy Bowl (with puppies and hamsters and chickens, oh my!), which makes me chiggle and snortle - those fluffy, goofy li'l pups are so silly!

Oh yeah, there's also another Bowl playing on the TV in our living room.  It's got a bunch of big, sweaty, grunting dudes running around after what appears to be a "ball" (I'm not totally convinced it's a real ball as it has pointy ends on it.  I thought balls were supposed to be round.  But I'm no expert, as I was neutered many moons ago.).  I suspect this "ball" must be filled with Whisker Lickins cuz these guys are trying REALLY hard to get a hold of it!  

Anywho, those are just some of the things that helped make this a Super Bowl Sunday.  It beats Toilet Bowl Tuesday, any day ;0)

Toodles fur now,

A Better Place

It's been nearly a week now since Maw got the news that her Grandma passed. Even now it's hard to believe she's really gone. The Alzheimer's had stolen the "real Grandma" from us, but every now & then, she would sneak away from its grasp & be herself, if only for a moment.
Maw's last visit with her was a good one. Her "I love you, Grandma" was answered in kind, and da Grandma even used Maw's name. That was a treat, at the time, and a comforting, treasured memory now.
I made a card fur Maw to let her know that I was sorry fur her loss & I told her da Grandma was in a better place. Maw was very touched by the card, since I had drawn sweet things on it, including a bridge leading up to a rainbow. The card took a while to make, especially since I was getting leaky eyes & didn't want to smudge the ink. It was all worth it, though, to see her smile again - like a lil beam of sunshine peeking through the clouds. I was quite proud of my artistry but must admit I didn't do it ALL by myself, I had a lot of help from Paw - he's got those handy thumbs! (We told you before that Paw was a keeper and this is just another example)
I haven't been on Twitter much at all this past week, as I was full-time comfort kitty. However, it's the caring, loving, endearing effect of the Anipal Community that is probably just what the doctor ordered, right about now.

Please, everyone, if there is someone in your life that you really love, never miss an opportunity to express it to them. You never know if you'll have another chance.

With love & gratitude,
Bizbee (& leaky-eyed Mawmy)

If You're Thankful And Ya Know It...

...Clap Your Paws!!!

*claps paws in a furry flurry, over and over again*

A big shout out to all da loving, kind & fantastical anipals on Twitter. I'm so very thankful fur you all!

I'm also mega thankful fur my family and our (blessedly climate-controlled) home. Maw & Paw put up with a LOT when it comes to me & my cattitude. Rumor has it that I'm a bit of a diva-boy (shocking, I know!). BTW, woe be unto the butt of whoever started that rumor, once I find you...Fair Warning.

Also, I'm ever so thankful fur my good health. I hope (knock on wood) that this continues as I age. I know some pals aren't so lucky & my heart goes out to them.

Speaking of aging, I'm thankful to look so young. Check me out, no wrinkles! And I don't even moisturize - go figure! ;0)

What are some of the things you all are thankful for? Say it LOUD, say it proud! I wanna hear it, right now, Now, NOW!!! (OK, I'm turning down the Diva Dial, sorry peeps).

Toodles fur now,
Bizbee

Anipal Photo Hunt #2: PAWTRAITS

It's that time of the month again! Ok, ok, get your minds outta the gutter - I'm talking about my monthly blog entry! Sillies!

I'm going to attempt to participate in the Anipal Photo Hunt, sponsored by my pal, Cokie the Cat.

This week's theme is PAWTRAITS.  I've dug up a piccie of myself from several years ago, when I had suffered from a broken leg due to a drama-infused mishap with my Paw (I admit, I initiated said drama because I'm a cat and drama is an obsession of mine).  Paw felt so very, very badly about accidentally hurting me and I do NOT hold it against him at all.  Accidents happen (it just sucks when ya get your leg broken, when they do).  In fact, I adore him so much, it often makes Maw wonder if she needs to pluck out one of my whiskers, or somethin', to get herself some lovin' from da Bizmeister. (Dear Maw - touch my whiskers and I shall eat copious amounts of bean dip and then toot in your nose while you sleep.  Fair Warning.)

Ok, so here I am, in all my coney, bandaged glory:

By the way, those who know me will appreciate the fact that my cone is pink - my fave color.  I'm secure in my girliemanhood!

So there you have it, a pic of my paws - one bum, one beauteous.

Toodles fur now,
Bizbee

p.s. just to let you know that after lots of VET visits, my leg healed so well that Maw keeps furgetting which one it was that got hurt.  Paw always remembers, since he paid all my vet bills - and it wasn't cheap! (THAT is why I adore him so, because he cared enough to ensure I was healed, even though he and Maw had just started dating at that time and he barely knew me.  Maw knew he was a keeper even before that, but that was one of many signs that he was The One for her - and ME!)

Lazy Bones Biz or Super BizzyBee?

Sheesh, a month since my last blog entry.  I'm blaming it on my humans being so very busy and our home computer breaking!  Although, I suppose some could say that perhaps I've just been a bit lazy.  True, I do enjoy a good, long nap, multiple times during the day.  And yes, Power Grooming and Feasting are top on my list of priorities.

Wow, when you think of all those activities, I'm shocked that I even have time for a monthly blog entry, MOL!

Ok, so I've torn myself away from a very intense napping session on the couch to bring you this latest blog entry on why I haven't been doing any blog entries. Pardon me now, please, I must get back to the couch while the fabric is still warm and molded to fit my hot body, perfectly.

Happy Napping to all of you who are enthusiasts, as myself!  It's quite an elite hobby, I know, but I'm committed to the cause!

Toodles fur now,
Bizbee

Pet Resort or Pet Prison?

Free at last, free at last! I'm back home, in my wonderful family abode, after spending a week at the local pet resort. Personally, I thought it was going to be more like "pet prison", but much to my surprise, I survived & lived to tell the tale!
Actually, I think the idea of it was scarier than the resort itself. They took very good care of me, made sure I was fed & watered regularly, heck, they even kept a log of how many times I peed/poo'd every day! (that's a first fur me! I had no idea my potty habits were so intriguing!)

However, nothing feels as good as Home Sweet Home! When Maw & Paw returned from their trip, I thought I would break my voicebox mewing my delight at seeing them! I missed them almost as much as they must've missed me (which was oodles & caboodles, according to Maw).
Oh and to top it off, I got my first shave of the season. I'll have to get Maw to post some pics of my sleek & smashing new 'do. I look like a supermodel, I'm so slender under all da fluff, MOL!

Everyone, please take a moment to reflect & give thanks fur your loving homes and families. We are so very fortunate to have them. I, fur one, wouldn't trade mine fur all da tuna in da world!

Toodles fur now,
Mr. Bizbee =^..^=
