About Me
Active within 2 Days
Hi! My name is Gracie Twinkle-toes-Here I Am!
I am Domestic Shorthair from Oxford, NY
Nicknames: Favorite right now is HUNEEE (I an mom's honey-pie)--Whe- n I was younger it was "Twinkie"-- Another nickname: "Lizzie Wiggle-Bottom" because of how cute I look from behind! BUT I don't answer to any unless I feel like it, of course.
Age: 2 years old
Gender: F
Coat: short haired
Education: She has 6-7 toes on each paw. A tiny thumb on top of her big thumbs. Even at 4 months old she could hold a teaspoon with wet cat food on it between her thumb and toes. She could turn it over to lick food on the other side. Use of tools at 4 months= high feline I.Q.
My favorite tricks and treats are: Gracie T-t has shown an early interest in research into the natural sciences. Her first experiments were into the source of water. Recently it has been the healing power of SMOOCHES. In summer it was the nature of flight in insects. She seems to eat all of her subjects before her studies are complete though. During winter she conducted a Sleep study-- you can see her on her Research Only page. She's know as the Little Snot by the other cats. She has a little 'attitude' and says to the other cats "I'm smarter than anyone else in the house-- feline or human."
Where I hang out:
My favorite grubs:
My pet peeves:
What I love about my owners: She let's me know that every day is wonderful and I am very good, even when I'm bad.
My cat hobbies:
Pet motto: "I AM BEAUTIFUL." I am always dressed up in my tuxedo wearing a fluffy, lacy bib, and white gloves on all of my fingers -- from the tips of my toes and thumbs:

How We Met
Thanks to all my furrends--old and mew-- for voting me COTD 5/1/12! ~~ Officially Created "Princess" by Queen GRACIE (moonpie) on July 31, 2012 ~~Cindy & Betty Boop gave me vote # 1600 on 7-28-12 ~~Rufus R. Sniff gave me vote #1700 on 9-1-2-12 ~~ STEVE gave vote #2000 on 1-13-13 Here's how I found my mom and the Budd's house Dona from the Little Mews Cat Rescue & Foundling Home in our village brought me to my new home when I was 4 months old. It was love at first cuddle, but I still slept in the cat carrier for a few nights... Early in 2012 after taking three family votes ( PD Bud resisted and wanted me to be sent back to the Foundling Home), I was finally voted into the Budd family, to be furever known as Gracie Twinkle-toes Budd . And that is how I became the owner of this family.

A Word With Whiskers – May 18 Heaven Is... ^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^^~^~^~^~^ A man was riding his horse down a road, cat in his arms & his dog by their side. The man was enjoying the scenery, when it suddenly occurred to him that he was dead. He remembered dying, & that his horse, cat & dog had been dead for years. He wondered where the road was leading them. After a while, they came to a high, white stonewall along one side of the road. It looked like fine marble. At the top of a long hill, was a tall arch that glowed in the sunlight. Standing before it, he saw a magnificent gate in the arch, made from mother of pearl, & the street that led to the gate looked like pure gold. He nudged the horse toward the gate, & as he got closer, he saw a man at a desk. Once close enough, he called out, "Excuse me, where are we?" "This is heaven, sir," the man answered. "Wow! Would you happen to have some water?" the man asked. "Of course, sir. Come right in, & I'll have some ice water brought right up." The man gestured, & the gate began to open. "Can my furiends," gesturing downward towards his horse, cat & dog, "come in, too?" the traveler asked. "I'm sorry, sir, but we don't accept animals." The man thought a moment & then turned his horse & dog back toward the road, cat in his arms & continued the way he had been going. At the top of another long hill, he came to a dirt road which led through a farm gate that looked as if it had never been closed. As he approached the gate, he saw a man inside, leaning against a tree & reading a book. "Excuse me!" he called to the reader. "Do you have any water?" "Sure, there's a pump over there" The man pointed to a place that couldn't be seen from outside the gate. "Come on in." "How about my furiends here?" the traveler asked. "There should be a bowl & a bucket by the pump." They went through the gate, & sure enough, there was an old hand pump with a bowl & a bucket beside it. The traveler filled the bowl & took a long drink himself, then gave some to his cat & dog while he filled the bucket for his horse. When they all were satisfied, he led his furiends back toward the man who was standing by the tree waiting for them. "What do you call this place?" the traveler asked. "This is heaven," was the answer. "Well, that's confusing," the traveler said. "The man down the road said that was heaven, too." "Oh, you mean the place with the gold street & pearly gates? Nope. That's hell." "Doesn't it make you mad for them to use your name like that?" "No. I can see how you might think so, but we're just happy that they screen out the folks who’d leave their best furiends behind." ^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^^~^~^~^~^ ^~^ Vote daily COTM QUEEN SPUNKY #161265 ^~^ Please keep her Mom & family in your prayers as they mourn the loss of beloved GM. ~CONCATULATIONS to our ACOTD Angel Crash #248838~ ^~^ Please visit CMR #46883 for daily mews ^~^ Thanks for your support!

A Word With Whiskers – May 17 Peas in a Pod - by Sue Young ^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^^~^~^~^~^ I’ll never be sure if it was wisdom or folly that struck that day, but I would think a little of both. We had been happily living with one cat for a couple of years, a fairly large black-&-white English Shorthair named Smedley. It was time for his annual exam & shots, so off we went to our local veterinarian’s office, puss in hand, or actually wrapped like up like an Egyptian mummy to save us from his dreaded claws. “Ah!” Doc Pete said, with a twinkle in his eyes. “I’m glad you dropped in. I have a kitten out back that needs a home & I thought of you!” Before I could stop him, his assistant brought out the tiniest marmalade tabby, weighing just over a pound, with a cast on his left front leg. He put him in my arms, looked up at me & said, “So what do you think?” They say a sucker is born every minute & that was my minute. We took one look at the poor little thing & then at each other & we were done for. We found out that someone had broken his leg & tried to drown him in the nearest canal. A Good Samaritan had rescued him & brought him to the vet’s office. “How will they get along?” I asked. “How do we go about introducing them to each other?” “Oh, that’s no problem,” he said. “You just put him in a carrier, take him home, leave the carrier open & let Smedley think he is rescuing the kitten.” Well, it sounded good. As per instruction, once we got home, we left the kitten in the carrier in the middle of the room. Then we sat back to watch. Smedley circled the box & growled deeper than I had ever heard him before. The kitten mewed plaintively while sticking a paw out of the holes in the side of the carrier. After about an hour, we decided to open the top of the carrier a little wider. Smedley walked up to the top, looked inside & was rewarded by a lightning strike from a small orange paw. That was the last we saw of him that evening. I was convinced that the next morning would find us back at the vet’s office returning the little tyke. However, the next morning, we were in for a surprise. As I got up to put on the coffee, I saw the two of them curled up together on the sofa as if they were one cat with two smiling faces. From then on, Smedley watched over the little one as if he had given birth to him, and they went everywhere together. Doc Pete was right! ^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^~^^~^~^~^~^ Cats are intuitive and can teach us to be gentle & patient. ^~^ Vote daily COTM QUEEN SPUNKY #161265 ^~^ Please keep her Mom & family in your prayers as they mourn the loss of beloved GM. ~ CONCATULATIONS to our COTD Princess’s maia & lia #163485~ **Vote ~ANGEL CRASH #248838~ for ACOTD tomorrow!** ^~^ Please visit CMR #46883 for daily mews ^~^ Thanks for your support to my catpaign!

Hi Gracie After careful thought and ponderances, here is my response to your karmic kitty kwiz: 1) Kittens come from the Easter bunny, who leaves them with unsuspecting human children, in the guise of crocodile eggs. 2) I came from across the street. VERY awake! 3) When I'm all done living here I'm moving to a nice split level with a pool, in Vermont somewhere. Hope these help your research project. :) ~Darn Bee Gee~Come visit me, BONNIE & GRABBY 210597~~, TOBY 210431 ~~, PIG & SISSY 210414~~, DARN BEE GEE 210564~~, RIP ANGELS 210737~~, MR.SNIFF 210653~~ & CATTY SHACK 232638 ~.

Hi Gracie Twinkle Toes Bet that video was interesting. Mom is going to be into it soon. She wants to get the pictures printed. She has ordered a printer and it should be here Monday. Now lets hope she can set it up. The Dell's are easy, but this is an Epson and she is not familiar with it. Josie keeps moving the kittens around. Mom tries to feed them and no kittens. Guess if they get hungry they'll find their way to the feeding station. Lots of cats have. J.C.Come visit me, Mimi 184008 & J.C..

Hi Gracie Twinkle Toes Sure hope you can find your sibs. That must be interesting. That picture is one of Mom's efforts with the new camera. She has others of me bathing. I don't have a bit of privacy. She hasn't grasped the video part of it yet. Hope she will concentrate on the kittens and leave me alone. MimiCome visit me, Mimi 184008 & J.C..

I think you missed a leaf or two gardening So,another research project GTt??? Ok here goes...and keep an open mind: 1. Where do kittens come from? Kittens are found under trees,or under cabbage leaves,thus the reason we all experience bubble gut. 2. Where did you come from? A pine tree! Gma wishes she had given birth to me the human way...I just know it,so humor her here please. 3. Where are you going when you are all done living here? What! I'm going to die!!!!! I have at least 7 more lives left!!! OMG!!!!!! I'm gonna die!!!!!!!! Well,when I do decide(and it WILL be MY decision)I think my spirit will gracefully float towards Hawaii. Yeah...I think its the gravitational pull or something. OK,whats next-bring it on GTt!!! XOXO~S~Come visit me, ~ K.Steve~check out my sword :) & ~Sir Ernie loves Molly~.

Hi Gracie Twinkle Toes Of course kittens come from under the house. I heard I came from a laundry room, but I don't remember. Mom wants to do something about that kitten maker. She went out and fed the kittens tonight and the Mom cat snarled like a pit bull. Mom isn't worried, she has been hated by experts. MimiCome visit me, Mimi 184008 & J.C..

Hi Gracie Twinkle Toes The new kittens have just come from under the house. Mom will get pictures when she can. Or did you mean the 2nd litter? They are in the house. Sweetest, most lovable critters you can imagine. Mom would like to find homes for everybody but me and J.C., bu so far, no luck. Mom is extremely particular about cat homes. I'm soooo sorry, but with all these cats around, I have not been able to put away any mice. I think somebody has eaten the factories. I told them not to do that, but they just don't listen.

Hey Gracie! I'm loving that it's finally Spring, and I can get outside more (under supervision, of course!). The other day I caught a nice vole, and brought it home to play with in the livingroom. Mom did not seem amused, and my toy suddenly disappeared! Oh well, there are a lot more where it came from! Happy Hunting! Tia TippytoesCome visit me, Tia Tippytoes & Miko San.

Gracie TT Caturday it is! My cubbyhole sounds purfect and I see that you got me a surprise bag of Snarkies? You rock! I'll be sleeping soundly after I enjoy all of those. By the way, mom hopes that I return home with less 'baggage' than I arrive with. She just took a picture of me...not a very flattering one, I might add, and someone asked mom if I'd swallowed a couple of my fursibs? Yikes...that was a stab!

Hey Gracie! Yes indeed, that little Grabby can flatten me out and make me mew! I feel like such a sissy.... Okay, to answer your latest slew of questions: 1) Of course I got my old bed back! No one else will ever be banished to my apartment! *smirk* 2) No fighting. Only I know how to open the door. *snicker* 3) Besides big Me, there are 12 other cats, but only Hot Rod snores. *zzzzzz* 4) Oh, I have no problems sleeping 10 hours - when I WANT to! *sneer* 5) I actually haven't been weighed, but mom thinks I may be heavier. *grunt* 6) Those little catnip crackers with the cheese and mouse toppings were kind of tasty. *smack smack* 7) Dreams? Not since I got back home. Now I can chase Bee Gee for real, so no need to dream! *smile* Um, as for a return to the sleep dungeon, I think I might take a rain check on that. Or rather, a sunshine check. When it's bright and sunny out, a nice dungeon might be just the ticket to keep cool and snooze. A surprise! Guess what! We found out about a kitty named Tia Tippytoes, and she seems lonely. Not many visitors. Bee Gee visited her furbling sister Miko San, who is a Manx like Bee Gee. If you would like to visit Ms. Tippytoes her page # is 177436. Miko seems pretty cool. BG might be friends with her - if she answers BG's message! Haha!

Gracie TT 1. I always sleep on the same heating pad. It's mine, all mine. 2. No fighting necessary as I'm the Queen at the Cathouse. 2.5 That would be 15 fursibs. 3. I catnap continously. The only bother is the need to scratch in the box and the bellies that alert me when empty. 4. Not sure about the weight. That's a tender subject. I pushed the scales under the dining room table so mom will forget about it. Out of sight...out of mind. 5. The snarkies would have been my favorite, except that they were out of stock. 6.My quality of sleep is the same, well...purhaps not quite the same as mom don't put any treats on my pillow before she tucks me in. 7. I dream of superpowers and of attending large breakfast buffets. I might be able to attend the sleepover this weekend. My secretary will be working.

Hi Gracie! No, I did NOT leave the sleep test "in a snit"! I, Rufus Sniff, Esq., do not and have never "snitted". I simply stepped outside for a moment to get a breath of fresh air - all those cats in such close quarters were creating quite a redolence, a not especially fragrant one either. As I exited, the door shut, and woe! Much to my chagrin, it locked behind me. So, rather than stand there banging on the door and waiting for someone to open, or not, the door, I went home. So, do you have my test scores yet? Did I pass? Did I win anything? I think I should get to keep the plastic bag. BG, Toby, and Grabby all like to lick plastic, and with one this size, it could get me into their good graces. Well, Toby at least. I don't think BG or Grabby HAVE any good graces. I'm not so sure about that "other" society you want to start. Sounds a little too "spirited" for me - if you get my drift. Spirited! Aahhhaaaa!

GTT I don't go outside so no possums and no voles for me. I stick with the can-opener kinds of food here. I do go outside occasionally, mostly whenever I have a wild hair and take mom for a stroll. It's taken me almost four years to develop the bellies and mom's mission to put me on a diet went into the litterbox as I know how to hoard.

GTt Oh no, I'm not addicted to anything, really. Not even Snarkies. I was brought up to take what I can get 'cause one never knows when the next meal or toddy will roll around again. I have a large fur to fill and I don't like the spay sway to become too gelatinous--gotta stick with the program of frequent grazings. No therapy necessary but thank you for the suggestion. meows and purrs N-ginCome visit me, ♥ Strudel and Yoda ♥--OFFLINE, ~~Engine~ vote Whiskers COTM daily 227256~OFFLINE, ♥ Felix--I love Pudding ♥--OFFLINE, Exit Rocketman~~♥ Mrs Whiskers--OFFLINE, Angels Ping, ET, HellCat & Poppins--OFFLINE, ~Orzo~ I ♥ Cheesy and Nosey--OFFLINE, ~~Michah and Biscuit~~OFFLINE & Rhubarb~~Vote Queen Spunky daily 161265-OFFLINE.

Gracie TT I'm sorry, I couldn't resist the idea of cocktails at the clubhouse the other morning. I was gonna bring some to share as I know that those would have made your scientific studies more specific and sensitive. I didn't have a chance to post answers 'cause my stuff was put out. By the way, where are the Links? meows and purrs N-ginCome visit me, ♥ Strudel and Yoda ♥--OFFLINE, ~~Engine~ vote Whiskers COTM daily 227256~OFFLINE, ♥ Felix--I love Pudding ♥--OFFLINE, Exit Rocketman~~♥ Mrs Whiskers--OFFLINE, Angels Ping, ET, HellCat & Poppins--OFFLINE, ~Orzo~ I ♥ Cheesy and Nosey--OFFLINE, ~~Michah and Biscuit~~OFFLINE & Rhubarb~~Vote Queen Spunky daily 161265-OFFLINE.

Hi Dr. Gross-en-Steen Sorry, I seem to have missed your memo yesterday. guess that means I'll have to fill out 2 today. Nuts.. Okay, here's the scoop so far: 1) I slept pretty well, but got up again to use the litter box, get a drink, wander around aimlessly for a few minutes, snoop around the other sleepers and have a snack from my private stash I snuck in. Then I went right back to sleep. Swear! 2) Of course I napped! It's part of the 10-hour sleep sessions! Whenever I wake up to use the litter, or get a drink, or have a snack, or snoop around, that ends one nap, and when I go back to sleep, that starts another nap! I mostly nap in my assigned "sleep cubicle" but once I almost dozed off beside the litter room. Stopped for a moment to get my bearings and almost started to "zzzzz". 3) Most of my dreams involve chasing some sort of prey or victim, like Bee Gee or Grabby or Smokey. In my dreams, when I catch Grabby she turns around and has great big claws that she jabs me with. Oh no, wait, that's what happens when I'm awake. And Smokey becomes a loud siren, like an air raid. Oh, that happens when I'm awake, too. Hmm, maybe I don't dream.... 4) The music doesn't seem to have any effect, good or bad. With all the snoring and other racket I can barely hear it anyway. I think I'll just use ear plugs from now on. Other stuff: I was about 22 lbs. and 2 yrs. old when this study started, and I have only a preference for dry food. Wet food actually makes me gack. I like to eat stuff I find on the floor though. Since mom got rid of my fishing pond, my favorite activity is tormenting Bee Gee. With her stubby tail she looks like a sawed off fish anyway! :) I hope this answers all your nosey questions. I'm gonna get some shut-eye now!

Gracie TT Hmmmm...looks like you've been sleeping on the job.. What, I failed? Sleep and eat is what I do best so I think that you'll be missing out on some very valuable scientific data. It's okay as I miss sleeping on mom's head anyway. I got the KitKat bars and my electric blanket but what about those snarkies? meows and purrs N-ginCome visit me, ♥ Strudel and Yoda ♥--OFFLINE, ~~Engine~ vote Whiskers COTM daily 227256~OFFLINE, ♥ Felix--I love Pudding ♥--OFFLINE, Exit Rocketman~~♥ Mrs Whiskers--OFFLINE, Angels Ping, ET, HellCat & Poppins--OFFLINE, ~Orzo~ I ♥ Cheesy and Nosey--OFFLINE, ~~Michah and Biscuit~~OFFLINE & Rhubarb~~Vote Queen Spunky daily 161265-OFFLINE.

Ready! Shoved ernie in dungeon two. And I mean shoved. Might need one of those beds for the hefty folks for him.I have totally outdone myself with fresk fruit marinated in OJ,blueberry pancakes in the shape of cat heads with fresh blueberry jam,BACON and country ham just lightly seared. No hash browns. First day of the study...don't want that starchy heavy feeling.Can I glue the electrodes on?? At least on Ernie. I want to rip them off later.And I would be happy to be in charge of singing everyone to sleep. I've been working on my high notes :) XOXO~S~Come visit me, ~ K.Steve~check out my sword :) & ~Sir Ernie loves Molly~.

Hi Gracie! Did you find our resolutions? If you did, tell me what they are! Hhhaa! I only remember the one about no more contests. Oh, and no more blogging at "live events". And no more "forced voting". We feel so liberated! It's great to be free!

Hi Gracie! Well, here it is new years eve. I guess you must have heard about our resolutions already, but mom made another one. And we all thoroughly approve. NO more entering contests! Mom said there would have to be a big CASH prize offered, and even then she'd think about it a long time.... I am insanely glad that Tuxedo contest is almost over. Voting in that thing has taken a ton of mom's blogging time! Stupid contest! Well, I am going to go snuggle up in mom's warm bed with that feather blanket thing and that other thing that gets warm. Mmmmmm ..... cozy! :) Mr. R. SniffCome visit me, BONNIE & GRABBY 210597~~, TOBY 210431 ~~, PIG & SISSY 210414~~, DARN BEE GEE 210564~~, RIP ANGELS 210737~~, MR.SNIFF 210653~~ & CATTY SHACK 232638 ~.

Hi Gracie Twinkle Toes We have rat's galore! They have invaded the homes of 2 neighbors. Both of these ladies have cats, so they do not put down poison. The rats are clean as the driven snow. Since we are going back into production, I will get with the neighbor cats and we will have a serious round up. All these cats are tired of rat and won't be sampling the merchandise. Haven't seen many mice, sorry to say. We have so many new kittens that are catching the baby mice, that the supply is depleted. MimiCome visit me, Mimi 184008 & J.C..

Hi Gracie and Family I am so sorry this is late but mom and I are trying to get caught up on thank you blogs since Thursday. OMC, I am so honored to be given COTD on Thursday . I haven't been on CC very long but everyone that I have met on here has been so nice. I am proud to call everyone here a friend and appreciate the time all of you spent by stopping by my page to paw a vote for me. I also would like to say thank you for all the treats, gifts and goodies everyone is leaving me. I would like to dedicate my honor to all kitties who are homeless as they deserve a loving home too.
