Sunday Selfies - Don't Tell Lexy!
Hello and Happy Sunday! Today I set the timer on the camera so I could get a photo of me being a little mischievous.
I'm being sneaky! I'm taking a little rest on Lexy's scratcher but as soon as I'm finished I'm getting off or else she'll come over and swat my butt. Will you keep my secret?

It's My Gotcha Day!
Hello and Happy Caturday!! Today is no ordinary Caturday, folks. Can you guess why? OK, I won’t keep you in suspense, I’ll just tell you. Today is my Adoptaversary! It’s my Gotcha Day!
Five years ago today I came home to live with Mommy (and Lexy – I shouldn’t forget her) for forever! I get so excited on this day (as you can tell by all of the exclamation points) that I can hardly sit still! Here's what I wrote in my diary that day:
"When we got to my new home, I smelled a cat but I didn’t have a chance to see it because Will rushed me off to the bathroom. I’m still sick, so I have to be separated for a while. I heard Mommy say, 'They’ll have to be introduced slowly'.
So far I like Mommy. She gives me hugs and lets me give her face rubs. She even made me a little blankie so I’m not cold. Isn’t that super? And she doesn’t get upset that I have diarrhea. She just picks up the rugs and puts towels down on the floor for me.
Wow, I can’t believe I have my own bed, and I can walk around and not have to live in a cage anymore. I lived in a cage for 31 days and it wasn’t fun. Tonight when I sleep in my bed I’m going to pray that all the cats on Death Row be saved just like I was."
I didn't sleep a wink the night before because I was just too happy about going home. I can't believe that was five years ago.
I started today's celebrations by sitting on Mommy’s face early this morning. Once I was sure I had her attention I started licking her face. (Well, it’s a special day so she should make sure she gets a bath!) After she finally got up Lexy and I had breakfast. Lexy had her fave – chicken flavored Fancy Feast, and Mommy gave me crunchy food! It’s my favorite! (Every day should be my Gotcha Day!) I got lots of hugs and kisses from Mommy, and Lexy licked my head.
Here are a few photos of me taken over the years.
I wanted to do something special for my Gotcha day, so I thought we’d do our first ever commentathon! Oh my stars, this is so cool! For every comment we get on this post Mommy will donate .50 (up to $50) to Oliver’s Orphan Oasis in Putnam Valley, NY. OOO is a one-woman rescue/shelter run by a wonderful woman, Carolyn. Auntie Carolyn took the kitten that Will found under a car a few years ago and found her a forever family.
So please comment, and please spread the word! Let’s raise money for Oliver’s Orphan Oasis! And don’t forget... Adopt, Don’t Shop!
Gotcha days are the best, don't you agree?

Happy New Year!
Hello and Happy New Year! Did you know that New Year's is one of the oldest holidays still celebrated? It dates back to ancient Babylon, thousands of years ago, where it was celebrated as an 11 day festival on the first day of spring. Many cultures during that time used the sun and moon cycles to determine the first day of the year. After Julius Caesar invented the Julian calendar, the holiday began to be celebrated on January 1st.
Typical American traditions on New Year's include making resolutions or goals, football, parades, fireworks, eating lucky food (such as pork or black eyed peas), and of course watching the ball drop from Times Square right here in New York City. (BTW, Mommy has never been to Times Square on New Year's Eve and she says she never will.)
