Hana the Dog, I Will Miss You, My Friend......

With great sadness, I received the news that my very good friend, Hana the Dog, passed away unexpectedly. She was one of my very first blogging friends and one of my very first doggie blogging friends.

My mom even visited her in California last year. I wrote about Hana many times in my blog, and Hana even went on a Big World Assignment for me.

Hana, you will always be a social Butterfly and I will miss you so much. Fly away, Sweet Hana, and I will see you again one day.......

Please stop by Hana's blog here to visit her family.

Purrs,
JB

Is My Mama Uncrateful?

Hi, it's me, Chester, with a report on my mama, Gaia.
Here is what happened.
A really big box came from the man in the brown suit. It was a really big box!

We all had to snoopervise it really good. But what is it, mom?

JB was not too happy. Most of the time, Gaia stays in her room upstairs. But this was a fancy stylish crate for Gaia so she could come downstairs and be with us sometimes!

My mama, Gaia, seems to like it ok, but she still is hissy and pissy sometimes if we get too close to her.

I ask my mama every day if she is uncrateful for all my mom has done for her. Me and my mama are getting along better than she is with JB, CB, and Armani.
Do you think that means she knows I am her son?

I pray for my mama every day, that one day she will get along with all of us.

Where's the Ducks?

So our cement pond is almost done, and Chester is still our Head Snoopervisor, and Duck Patrol Manager.

Chester: Hey guys! Where's the Ducks??

Armani: No ducks out here!

JB: No ducks inside here!

Eeek, CocoBean spotted another snake.....a baby one this time! (not a BIG one like this that was in our garage recently!)

CocoBean: No ducks here! Eeek! I'm getting out of here!

We even asked Gaia to check from her room upstairs if there were any ducks in our neighbor's yard.
Gaia: No ducks over there!

So, Chester as Duck Patrol Manager, decided we had to have a family meeting about the elusive Ducks.

Does anyone know where we can get some ducks for our pond?

Fashion Friday - Accessories

It's Fashion Friday at JB's CatHouse!
So everyone knows I prefer to go au naturele, but I do believe in a good accessory.

For me, I got another new blankie, which is a great accessory, and it is very luxurious....you know how I love luxurious things.

Chester always likes a good honeysuckle bowtie.

Nip cigars are a good accessory, and are not just for ManCats, says CocoBean. LadyCats like them too!

And Armani's accessory of preference is this blue feather boa.
Very luxurious, don't you think? Great choice, Armani!

We hope your Friday is full of great accessories too! TGIF!

Charli's Angels & a Thought to Ponder

I have been doing a lot of thinking and pondering.......it is very important for all humans to spay and neuter all kitties and doggies.

I pondered and pondered and realized this is very important. Especially when mom had to rescue Charli last night......Charli and her Angels.

Mom trapped MamaCat Charli and her family last night and rescued them from a life of living in the sewer drain in our neighborhood. Mom named MamaCat "Charli" because she has a mustache like some human named Charlie Chaplin.

These are Charli's Angels.......4 tiny GirlKittens and they are about 3 weeks old. I have not met them purrsonally, but I hear 3 of them are Mini-Me JB's!

Charli and her Angels will live in a cat condo in our house until the kittens are old enough to be adopted out.
And again I ponder this most important thought.....
Why don't humans spay and neuter all their kitties and doggies?

Armani was totally perplexed about this thought too, and he tried to help me with my pondering, by doing some pondering in his own way.

From JB's CatHouse to Everyone Everywhere:
Please spay and neuter your pets!

Word of the Day - HUNGRY

The word of the day is HUNGRY.

CocoBean: Mom, I am HUNGRY. You only fed me 4 times today and I am truly starving! Look, I have COUPONS!

JB: This is getting ridiculous. CB eats up all my food. She is out of control with the starving routine, and mom falls for it! At least CB had coupons this time.

CocoBean: Mom, these tantalizing Fancy Feast Appetizers are not open yet. Please open them for me.

CocoBean: Please, mom, please hurry! I am so HUNGRY!

Chester: sheesh....Girls! We ManCats wait patiently.

Armani: "We" ManCats? I heard from JB that you are still a ManCat-in-Training till November 17!

Mom: Ok, everyone, that's enough, OFF the kitchen counters!! Now it's my turn to be hungry.

Mens in Our BackYard

There has been mens in our backyard working on our cement pond. We don't like mens inside our house, so we are ok with this......especially if it means we are getting ducks!

Chester likes to keep a close watch on the activities every day.

He didn't even get scared of the big shovel!

Each day, more gets done on our pond. Chester is our official Snooperviser.

Sometimes the rest of us get in on the action too. Wow, a big machine!

CocoBean: JB, come look!

JB: Mens and machines are not for me. Plus I must have my beauty sleep right now on my new blankie!

Watching Birdies and Updates from JB's CatHouse

There has been no sunshines, so I can not "catch" birdies inside this week like I did in my last post. I must "watch" birdies outside now, EveryCat in my CatHouse wants to join in!

Updates from JB's CatHouse:

1. Armani has not peed in any other wrong places since mom closed the guest room door. Yay!
2. We are getting a cement pond, and I bet that means we will get ducks too! Right mom?
3. Chester's mama, Gaia, still needs her very own forever home.
4. Mom is still very busy. We miss our friends so much!

Catching Birdie Season is Here!

Now back to me, JB, the GoodCat!
If anyone remembers, this is the best season for catching birdies at my house!
Getting into position.....the sunlight has to be just right.....

Almost there.....

Waiting......I kind of look like an angel, with the sunshines on my furs, don't you think? hee hee

Yes! There are the birdies!! I will ever so gently try to reach out to them....the technique must be very careful and very gentle.

Chester! Don't mess with the birdies! Chester, no! Don't!

Chester just had to get in the middle of my birdie catching again.....

He made me miss the very best opportunities to catch birdies......when the sunlight was just right.

Now I have to wait a whole 24 hours, till I can catch birdies again!

(For those who don't know, birdies are pieces of my furs that mom lets fly in the sunshine when she pets me. I like catching birdies a lot and I do this every day when the sunshine is just right!)

Who Pee'd on the Bed??

JB: How could you, Armani! How could you!! Mom is so mad at you!

Mom caught Armani peeing on our guest bed this morning! She thought he had only done it once when he first got here, but it looks like he has been doing it the whole time he has been living in my CatHouse! There are 4 different pee spots on the bed, and they all look well peed on. The bed is ruined!

Armani: Mom. I am so sorry. Please forgive me! I don't know why I did it. I don't do it on your bed in your room where you sleep right here, see? Please, forgive me! I have tears in my eyes, mom. I am so sorry, mom. Please forgive me......

JB and Armani's mom here: I sure hope this is not an ongoing problem with Armani. I thought he did it once when he could not find the litter box when he first got here, but it looks like he has done it since I brought him home. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how to fix this problem with him?
Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Paw It Forward - Thank You, Teddy!

Our Eskie woofie friend, Teddy, sent us a Paw It Forward pressie! We are just now getting to post about it, so we must apologize to Teddy. (Same old story with mom being too busy.) Teddy sent us some pawsome things and he made us smile!

We opened the package and started sniffing immediately.
JB: I think I smell a white floofy woofie! This must be from Teddy! Look at all the toys and treats!

We sniffed and sniffed.......and Chester found the treats right away!

And I found SmartyKat Nip! Of course, Teddy knows I am a SmartyKat, and all!

But then what happened? Armani and Chester tried to eat all my treats!! Boys.....hrmpf!

Then Chester had to make sure we did not miss anything in the package and he got his head stuck in it! Silly Chester.....
Thank you Teddy! We love our pressies!

Mom says we can Paw It Forward to the first 3 bloggers who want to play.
The exchange focuses on doing an act of kindness without expecting anything in return other than that the recipient will, in their turn, pass the kindness along and Paw It Forward in their own way.

Make sure to post about this on your blog, link to me, then send something to the first 3 bloggers who sign up to play along through your blog. The little something you send can be something you made, bought, were given, or found. Just send a gift that will make the recipient smile!
