Wow! Thanksgiving!

Where has the time gone? My apologies for not keeping up on the blog but many weeks, I'm working 50-60 hours and just have enough energy to come home and love on the three that make my life full.

A little update on life at our house. Runt is still doing well, although the growth on his lower mouth is somewhat troublesome. A vet visit is in the works for that one. Charles has cracked me up repeatedly lately. Taz (the Princess) pretty much stays to herself but each morning, she will venture into the bathroom with me to get her morning snuggles and let me know that her food dish is lacking it's proper contents. Lately, Charles has sat at the end of the hall way, watching her and then thundering down the hall, stopping about a foot short of Taz, puts his head down and just waits...He is so big that it's a sight to see his tummy wobbling as he runs but it's really amusing to see the two of them interact after all these years. And, I actually saw the two of them doing the nose sniff thing the other day, so progress on that front.

So, as the bird is in the oven and the cats are curled up after their morning feeding, I wanted to wish all of you a very Happy Thanksgiving and to my Jewish friends of human or feline persuasion, a Happy Hanukah!
Hugs from Taz, Runt, Charles and mommy, Anna

Happy July!

Well, it's been almost a month since we posted but our mommy's job has kept her away from home way too much! The first week she was back to work after her vacation, she worked 4 12 hour days and 2 10's! She says it will help keep us all fed but we would rather have our mommy home with us more...
Mommy here: I would rather be home with you all too.

Charles: Mommy likes to sit on the couch with the laptop in her lap and then I lay on the table that the computer normally sits on. Mommy starts to put it back when she gets up and there is this big, black and white fuzzy tummy there for her to pet and love on. Then, I have to move. :-(

Runt: The sun is out and I have the bathroom window to myself. Charles has tried to get up into it but his fat butt (snicker) just doesn't fit.
Charles: hissss

Mommy: Taz (aka "the Princess") has gone to the spare bedroom where it is cool and dark and the "boys" don't bother her. She likes to come out and get her snuggles when I get up in the morning and head for the bathroom. Then, it's just us girls and all is right with the world.

So, life is good here in 3 kats and a kwilter land...Mommy is going to work on some sewing and we're going to enjoy the cooler air and sunshine.
Snuggles and purrs,
Taz, Runt and Charles (and mommy, Anna)

Gotcha Day 2013...

Mommy is a little slow this week about posting our Gotcha Day note...something about her getting a year older or something!

Charles: It's been a good time-our Mommy hasn't been leaving us to go to the "job" and being gone for HOURS on end.

Mommy: I'm on vacation this week to celebrate my birthday and you and your brother's Gotcha Days.

Runt: We don't care why, we are just happy to have you to cuddle with us and such.

Mommy: It's been chilly at night the last few nights and once again, I am thankful these two came into my life...Charles, at almost 22 pounds, makes a lovely foot warmer and Runt likes to snuggle up near the top of the covers, keeping them from sliding off me!

Runt: Today is sunny and a little warmer. We have both been fed and have settled in for our post-breakfast naps-Charles is laying on the couch, next to mommy and I have the bathroom window all to myself, to watch and listen to the birdies sing. It's a good day!

So, for all of you who have stuck with us, thanks and please keep watching this space-we plan on gently using our claws to remind mommy to post more often.

Now to finish this post, Mommy found this picture on the Care2.com card site and thought it was wonderfully appropriate for all of us cats...

Well,darn that mommy anyway! She ran away with her human family last month and forgot to post any sort of an update.
We are fine except Runt, who has sores on and around his mouth.

Just a quick note to let everyone know we are all right and that we will tie mommy to a keyboard soon so she will write a post for us! It's hard to get good help!
