About Me
Active within 16 Days
Hi! My name is Shadow - Spring, beautiful Spring
I am an American Shorthair from Wallingford, CT
Nicknames: Honey Girl, Pretty Girl, Beastlet
Age: 10 years old
Gender: F
Coat: short haired
Education: COTD 02/13/2008
My favorite tricks and treats are: Temptations are good, but Puffs n Purrs are my favorite.
Where I hang out: I love to sleep under the covers, or curl up in the clean laundry.
My favorite grubs: Fancy Feast is my favorite, although sometimes Mom gives me a special treat.
My pet peeves: Chico is my pet peeve. He can be most annoying sometimes, but he is cute and good for comic relief.
What I love about my owners: My Mom is a very caring person. She takes good care of us (Chico and me). She plays with us and gives us lots of attention. At night when she goes to bed I crawl up and get lots of petting and hugs. I have a new Dad, Mom got married last year (12/11). He is so wonderful. He takes such good care of me and gives me wonderful rubs. I have taken over almost every seat in the house and when I sit on the couch he makes a special bed for me to lie on. Life is even better now that my new Dad is here.
My cat hobbies: I love to climb into Mom's arms while she is brushing her teeth and knead her arm.
Pet motto:

How We Met
My family has always had cats and for several years I had been without one because my husband was alergic to them. When he passed away I decided that I needed a cat in my life to help me through my grief. I adopted Shadow from a vet near where I lived and knew when I first saw her that she was the one. She was a very frisky kitten and followed me everywhere, hence the name Shadow. She soon became a loving member of my family, or did I become a member of hers. She has given me years of love and affection and I can't imagine life without her. Her birthday is 3/17/03. COTD 02/13/08. ♥ Sippies and Shadow were married on 10/25/08 ♥

Hiya Girlfriend Princess Diaries: So good to blog you again...Life at the Jersey Shore is starting to get busy...The weather is starting to warm up, people are out on the Boardwalk & more cars are on the street...That means tourist season is upon us at the end of the month..Mommy hates tourist season but for me it makes my day more entertaining...My window sill looks down on the street & this is the time of year when all the action starts & also when tons of Birdies sit on the wires right where I can lean out and grab them...Just kidding, I would never grab a Birdie but I do sometimes try to whack them...MOL...It makes Mommy very nervous so when she knows she isn't going to be around mean old Mommy lowers my window...She is such a downer...This week has been really beautiful...I have had a very refreshing ocean breeze tickle my whiskers & ruffle my fur every day...I sure hope it doesn't get hot to soon cause then my window gets closed, the blinds come down & the A/C gets turned on..BORING...The sun shines in my window in the middle of the day so in the summer it makes our living room feel like an oven & I don't get to watch the street until the sun goes down...For now, I am entertained every day...I have been having lots of fun playing soccer too...I found a paper ball Daddy made me under the couch & I have been whacking it all over the apartment like a kitten at play...Mommy laughs at me cause I have a zillion balls but my paper ball is my treasure...Yup, I can still move like a kitten even though Mommy claims I am a senior...Hey Mom, your only as old as you feel...Just cause Mommy feels OLD she has to keep reminding me I'm a senior...What Mom, misery loves company...The woman has a mean streak..So, that pretty much sums up my week except for my daily Strawberry fix...Yup, I also love this time of year cause Strawberries are in season & I can never get enough...Oh yeah, lately I have this need when eating a strawberry to rub it all over my face, chin & whiskers...I don't know why I do it but it makes Mommy crazy & anything that drives her crazy is fun for me...What Mom, I am not a brat, I am just stating the truth...You know Mom, you really need to chill out...Oops, I better go I'm getting the evil eye...See you next week...Purrs, Princess StrawberryCome visit me, Sam & Oreo's "Houston Manor" & Princess Oreo - Ventnor Beach Beauty.

Good Morning Shadow When I saw your blog I did the happy dance...So happy your back, I have missed you very much too...My Mommy keeps up with yours on FB...It sure is great about your Mommy quiting smoking...We are very proud of her, it will take time but once her body adjusts she will feel so much better...Tell her to keep up the good work, we are cheering her on...The weather here is okay...It just rained for a few days but has been in the high 50's low 60's this week...MOmmy is going to try to start walking on the Boardwalk in the morning when she gets home from work...She has to work up to it, with her back problems she can't walk to far yet so a bit each day should help till she builds up her muscles...I am only blogging once a week these days cause Mommy is just so tired when she gets home from work in the morning...I usually blog between late Saturday night and early Sunday morning...So I'll see you then...So happy you are back...Purrs, Princess Oreo CookieCome visit me, Sam & Oreo's "Houston Manor" & Princess Oreo - Ventnor Beach Beauty.

Hello Shadow Tomorrow (Thursday) is officially ♥Brothers &Sisters Day♥ a day for siblings to celebrate one another. Our siblings have a huge impact on our lives (some for the good, some not-so-good). Siblings are truly a special blessing (did I really just say that?!) so be sure to appreciate and cherish your bothers & sisters. Another reason to celebrate is that not everyone is lucky enough to have siblings (like Mommy who is an only child). So don’t forget – tomorrow celebrate that special bond and let your siblings know just how special they are to you. To celebrate, I will show my love & appreciation to MerryBelle and Casper Todd simply by being my hissy, growly self! They would expect no different from me & I certainly would not want to disappoint them! ☺ With Celebratory Kisses, ❁Q Sissy❁Come visit me, ♥K Casper Todd♥ COTM August 2008, ♥Q MerryBelle♥ COTM December 2008 & ♥Q Sissy♥ COTM July 2008.

~Queen Trixie's final day in 'office'~ April 30th Hello & happy Tuesday every kitty! This is the last day that I’ll be meowing to you from the Queen’s chair so my big sis & head chef, Patches, has whipped up a banquet that will amaze your senses & tantalize your taste buds as my way of thanking all the sweet kitties that pounced by this month. At dawn tomorrow we’ll be vacating the cabin with our royal mementos & will say farewell to the beautiful wooded area that I've called my home for an entire month. All kitties that have visited are suggested to make sure everything they brought along has been reclaimed because once I pack away the royal gowns I’ll no longer be responsible for my actions & anything missing may never be seen by you again...MOL...but until then I must remain as dignified as possible & therefore I call my royal criers forth & hand them the final royal decree to announce: ♕ ♕ HEAR YE, HEAR YE ♕ ♕ ~*~All CC kitties are hereby cordially invited to attend the coronation of Queen Spunky #161265 on Wednesday May 1st, 2013~*~ ~*~ Time: 7am PT/10am ET on the CMR page #46883~*~ ~*~This gala event will be held at the HONEYWELL CENTER in Wabash, IN in the Honeywell Room (see pics in my gallery) & will be followed by a roller skating party at their skating rink, where music, skates & the use of the party room are all included. All food will be provided by Honeywell’s famous catering service so come hungry & loosen up those leg muscles for a day of roller skating fun as I say Bon Voyage to royal duties!!~*~ *Formal dress is optional for the coronation ceremony but I highly recommend a change of comfortable clothes for skating if you plan to stay for the party afterward.* //////////////////////////////////////////////////- /////////////////// After the pawty is over it’s just a short 14 miles to my home where I’ll unpack & settle back into civilian life with happy, cherished memories to dream about while I take a short break from the blogging scene. Not to worry though because one of my magnificent siblings will pounce into action…& I’m sure they’ll exaggerate my antics like they usually do…MOL! Thank you for being so supportive sweet kitties & I’ll see you bright & early tomorrow morning! Loving purrs, Queen Trixie *****************************Come visit me, Q Trixie~Hail to Queen Spunky#161265~, Fluffinella-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 COTM, Joseph-PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May!, Angel Sherman, K Zaboo-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 for COTM !, Angel Cloudy loves Angel Oscar, Special Memories page & Patches~PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May~.

Hey Shadow! Congrats to Mom for quiting smoking! My Mom knows how hard that is. She quit 11/25/00 after smoking for 34 years and wished she had quit many many years earlier! Your Mom will be so happy she has done this! Tell her she must not start again! She will probably gain a little weight at first but after she has adjusted to not smoking she can work on that. Mom was surprised how much more money she had! And cigarettes are much more expensive now, than 13 years ago. My Mom is doing okay. She was doing great with her cane but this past Tuesday she threw her back out. It's much better now but still bothers her. Tomorrow morning the wire comes out. Her surgery is 7:30. Leaving a supporting vote for Mom & keeping her in our prayers. We are so proud of her! Peace & love. Have a purfect evening. Kitty Kisses.

A SUPER GOOD MORNING TO YOU! Sorry we have not been doing a lot of blogging lately, but want you to know you and all our dear CC friends are forever in our prayers. Mom says her hands are full and so are our paws trying to fix up the house, get her ready for a trip to Norway, set up home care for us and the dogs. She got her passport application in yesterday and has other chores to do downtown today. The dogs have a vet appt. for some shots again. They don't know it yet and will just think mom is taking them for a walk. Our vet is just a block away. We also seem to have internet issues, so when we get on to try to catch up blogs, CC is forever slow or it is our internet connection that goes out! Sound familiar? We know others suffer these issues also. Then mom blames us kitties, especially Molly, Barney, Hefty, Andy and Zeus for sitting in her lap, when she is trying to type, shoving her hands, walking on the keyboard, getting in her face, etc! US! Imagine! We do hope one day soon she will get her act together. Love to all and hopefully more soon.Come visit me, Our Precious Angels #75646, Heffner #130639-----VFP Goalie, Barney's Daily Inspiration, Handy Andy #149735 VOTE WHISKERS 227256 K.

Hi Shadow I'm back, did you miss me??? We had no heat all weekend so mom stayed in her room with the oil heater and her electric blanket watching TV. Our gas was off since late FRI night we guess. It was on FRI during the day, but we woke up on Caturday and it was cold in here, mom coulodn't figure out why...she checked everything and all the gas appliances would not work, so mom had no cooking gas either...she had to eat cereal and sandwiches all weekend. DTE came this morning and figured out the trouble...the meter went bad, they said they installed it mover 20 years ago and it just quit working, so they took the old one off and put a new one on and now we have gas again...the man had to come up and light all moms pilot lights again, too. Yesterday mom had to go back to the ER cause she is still blocked up..they gave her an emama and made her stay there until she went, so she was there for a ong time...did not get home until after 8pm, so mom was not in the mood to take us to hockey after all that mess. It was cold all weekend, wouldn't you know caue we had no gas, it was only in the 30's with rain and dampness and no sun. Today it is 70* and sunny, but it is very windy out...we are in and out as we feel like going...mom left her back door open for us. Have a pawsome afternoon!

Hello Shadow How was your weekend? Ours was nice except for those loud thunderstorms yesterday which began at 2 a.m. and lasted until after 8 a.m. We received several inches of rain & lots of thunder, lightning and wind, thankfully no damage. Did you know that April is National Pet First Aid Awareness Month? Your first-aid kit should include phone numbers for your veterinarian, extra bottles of prescribed or packaged medicines (like eye wash), hydrogen peroxide, gauze, adhesive tape, non-stick bandages, tweezers, a small flashlight, round-tip scissors, and a topical antiseptic or antibiotic, plus clean cloths & towels. Also, be sure to have your pawrent’s name, address & phone numbers attached to your carrier. Ever since Hurricane Katrina hit us, Mommy keeps a first aid kit & a hurricane evacuation kit ready for us, just in case. We never know when it might come in handy. Enjoy a safe & super day! Hugs, Q MerryBelle P.S. Do you ever hear from Sippies? We still miss him here on CC.Come visit me, ♥K Casper Todd♥ COTM August 2008, ♥Q MerryBelle♥ COTM December 2008 & ♥Q Sissy♥ COTM July 2008.

Hey Shadow! Cool picture! Congrats to Yale! Woo hoo! Just saw on TV. What was it 4-0 or 4-1? Cool. Mom is ready to watch the Hawks beat the Blues! Mom is doing well in therapy. Her therapist gave her a cane to use now. Yesterday Mom walked four blocks with her walker. She is going to the hospital Tuesday for blood work. It is only four blocka away. The sun is out and it's in the 50's. Not warm enough to open the windows. We are both napping. Me in the bedroom in front of the window and Dean on the recliner next to Mom. She is waiting for the hockey game to start. Go Hawks! Leaving a vote. Peace & love. Have a purrfect day. Kitty Kisses.

Hi Shadow, Mom worked with me in the house before I could walk outside. We head north on th 25th. Won't be in St. Charles Mo until around end of may first of june. mom n Lynne went swimming. Boy it was chilly too, our temps were in the 70's, but mom loved it, she just did the hot tub. I hope you are seeing signs of spring. Check out Boomer got new boots, auntie Linda sent them to him. They were Angel Brandi. Dad n mom really like them. Yesterday mom n dad went out in the morning, they only took Only Boomer. They went to a car show, and he walked around with lots of people on the street. Mom n dad was so proud of Him. He didn't scare once. They had two bands playing. They were loud too. But it didn't scare him.Then they took me to the flea market. And to the veggie market. They bought him sweet potatoes, dad wants mom to add sweet potatoes to his food again. Then they went to lunch you guess it, they took McDonalds And he got his own double cheese burger without bread. He's allergic to wheat. Mom n dad bought one home for Ellie n Bud.

Shadow Mommy says she is afraid this is going to be a C&P. She wants to thank everyone for all the cards and prayers she received over the last 2 weeks. It has meant a lot to her. Yesterday she saw radiologist and they are now rady to contact insu. co to get permission to start radiation. They said it would probably be next week before they get permission. Each radioactive injection is over $2000 so they then have to order the injections. Mom will find out next week when they get permission when they are starting. In the meantime they said mom can return to work until the injections start. So we get to love and comfort mom while she is home.

Hi Shadow I am doing pawsome today. Mom has TV on and I was snuggling with her on the couch, but now she is on her computer. It is raining outside today. Mom opened the back door for us to see, so now we don't want to go outside. We do not want to get wet. I hate when that happens. Yesterday was a nicer day, it got to 59* and it was partly sunny, but it was very very windy and mom was afraid our power was gonna go out. We got to go out and that wind messed up my fur. Mom got us some new catfood, it is Friskies Good Mornings. We liked it, but we don't usually do breakfast, we eat dry all day and wet for dinner, mom just wanted to see if we would eat it. I'm off to take a much needed rainy day nap. Have a pawsome afternoon!

Please vote for Dixie 230112 Monday April 8 Cute as a button Dixie was dropped off at her future home where she now happily resides with her humans and fursiblings. She has learned how to love from them and quite often you can find her hanging out on her mom or grandmom's lap. She doesn't have any pet peeves but she loves jumping into open drawers. Isn't that a great trick? Her motto is an important one: "Spay and neuter your pets." I couldn't agree more. Please paw on by her page 230112 and leave her a vote for her very own COTD badge. And while you are in a voting mood, don't forget our current COTM candidate, the adorable Miss Spunky 161215. I know both will appreciate your visit. Thanking you with purrs of catitude. Love, Sabrina and Sylvester & Sibs for the Catpaign & Mews Room pageCome visit me, CMR (Catpaign&MewsRoom), Past COTD Winner's Circle, KITTY HALL OF FAME & COTD Signup Page.

~Queen Trixie's Tantalizing Animal Tales~April 6th Wake up sweet kitties because the sun is coming up & Zaboo has the bus warmed up for everyone since it’s still rather chilly here in the woods. It’s supposed to warm up to the mid-60s today with some windy conditions, but hopefully we’ll be able to shed our jackets as we head south toward the center of my home state to visit the smaller than you’re used to, yet very nice & extremely friendly, INDIANAPOLIS CHILDRENS’ ZOO! (http://www.indyzoo.com) I was going to take you to the Ft. Wayne zoo since it’s closer to my cabin but found out their official opening day isn’t until the 20th. You’d think that getting a request from a queen would prompt them to open early but no such luck! Hmmm…guess they don’t take orders well from animals…MOL! Well off we go kitties!! Anyone not awake in time to catch the bus will be stuck gathering firewood for our bonfire tonight so you’d better get your paws pouncing because Zaboo is revving the engine & is ready to go! Don’t forget to paw SPUNKY #161265 her daily vote before we go so that she can wear her own crown next month as our May queen! The Indianapolis Zoo was the first attraction triple accredited by the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA) and the American Association of Museums as a zoo, an aquarium and a botanic garden. The Indianapolis Zoo is located in White River State Park downtown, and since opening in 1964, it has grown into a world-class facility hosting a million visitors each year and playing a major role in worldwide conservation and research, including accomplishing the world’s first successful artificial insemination of an African elephant. White River Gardens is part of the Zoo and continues its tradition of connecting animals, plants, and people. This stunningly beautiful 3.3-acre landmark botanical attraction combines the best of gardening ideas, plant information and inspirational design to serve the needs of all visitors. At the Zoo, you can visit each of their five biomes: Encounters, Forests, Oceans, Deserts and Plains. The newly redesigned Encounters Biome features the Flights of Fancy: A Brilliance of Birds exhibit that features family-friendly, interactive exhibits and amenities — including a 4D Theater (currently showing Ice Age Dawn of the Dinosaurs), a Nursing Moms' Nest, feeding opportunities in two different aviaries, and a charming little Tots Treehouse play area. You’ll also enjoy the shows, the shark touch pool, Race a Cheetah, White River Junction Train ride, & the Carousel, (which features many different hand carved animals), & the Kombo Family Coaster! It’s not a big zoo so it won’t take the entire day but I know we’ll have fun so let’s pounce aboard the Cyclone Express Tour bus & get rolling down the road! Thanks for accompanying me today sweet furiends & I hope you all have a pawsome Caturday! Sweet purrs, Queen TrixieCome visit me, Q Trixie~Hail to Queen Spunky#161265~, Fluffinella-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 COTM, Joseph-PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May!, Angel Sherman, K Zaboo-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 for COTM !, Angel Cloudy loves Angel Oscar, Special Memories page & Patches~PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May~.

~Queen Trixie's Tantalizing Animal Tales~April 4th Good morning from the imperial cabin in the woods of Northern Indiana! It’s still a very chilly morning with temps below freezing but it’s supposed to be warming up nicely later with highs topping out in the mid to upper 50s. That means we can put away the winter woolies & just wear a jacket or sweatshirt if you’d like to go exploring today…woohoo! Just what is there to explore around here? LOTS!! We don’t have just corn & bean fields…MOL! We take pride in our heritage, and we cherish our Midwest traditions, our Hoosier hospitality and our hard-working Heartland values. You’ll cherish them too as you wander down quaint downtowns that retain the charm of a simpler time. You’ll be inspired by the faith that led to the founding of Notre Dame in 1842 & the simple courage that brought the first Amish settlers in 1844. We also take pride in the dedication of the largest remaining mounted cavalry unit in the United States, the ingenuity that led Orville Redenbacher (born in Brazil, IN) to launch his first gourmet popcorn product in 1971, the creativity of the Garfield creator Jim Davis (born in Marion, IN) & the determination of the farmers that have worked this land for generations. You’ll discover a myriad of activities and delightful secrets throughout the seven counties found in northern Indiana (http://www.northernindianagetaways.com) so take some time to explore the wonders & you’ll understand why I’ve chosen a cabin as my royal abode instead of a damp, cold castle…MOL! Now that I’ve peaked your curiosity (MOL) I’m going to spin you all the way back to California to meow about a very special & heroic bird that was owned by SABRINA’s #11187 mom a long time ago, (B.C. before cats)! OBIE was just a common yellow parakeet but he was very special and spoke 3 languages...English, Italian and Spanish. Obie lived in a cage in the living room but he liked to stand on top of the cage, on mom’s shoulder, or flew around during the time he was out every day…but never leaving the room. One day, his mom reached into the top cupboard to pull out a crock pot and lost her grip and it came crashing down on her head. She’d never in my life experienced this sensation & truly saw stars and felt herself losing consciousness. All of sudden, Obie flew into the room and landed on her shoulder and started chirping "pretty bird", "Ciao Bella", "Que Paso" into her ear as she gripped the countertop. (Obie never had been in the kitchen before and it was a completely separate room as the living room) She later went to the emergency room & found out she had a concussion. She believes Obie & his act of heroism prevented her from being knocked out cold that day. I proclaim & dedicate the royal calico crest for gallantry today to sweet OBIE the parakeet & special thanks to Sabrina for sharing her story! Have a pawsome day dear furiends & remember to pounce by with vote support for COTM candidate SPUNKY #161265! Soft purrs & loving hugs, Queen TrixieCome visit me, Q Trixie~Hail to Queen Spunky#161265~, Fluffinella-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 COTM, Joseph-PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May!, Angel Sherman, K Zaboo-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 for COTM !, Angel Cloudy loves Angel Oscar, Special Memories page & Patches~PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May~.

Queen Trixie's Tantalizing Animal Tales Good Morning dear furiends! Thank you for stopping by with your sweet catgrats yesterday as I was officially pictured as the COTM queen! I’m going to step aside for just a moment to let yesterday’s birthday girl (Patches) meow while I warm up by the fire since it’s a very chilly day in the woods! If you plan on hiking, fishing, or sightseeing today please dress warmly because we’re only supposed to reach the mid 40’s…but we do have lots of sunshine to help warm your fur. Now I’ll let big sis meow…. ~Thankful purrs from Patches~ I want to thank all of you for the lovely gifts, sweet hugs & kisses..& most of all the visits you made on my birthday yesterday. It’s always great to see so many of you come by on special days because it makes it a lot more special & also make me purr with sincere happiness. Thank you so much for sharing my birthday with me dear furiends but now I’d better get back to the kitchen so her royal highness can have her daily catnip tarts or she’ll throw a hissing fit…MOL! Have a purrfect day dear furiends! Big paw hugs, Patches Hmmm…I think my big sis just got a quick jab in at my demanding catitude along with thank you meows...MOL! Today I’m bringing you a heroic story that is on the freekibble site after you answer the cat trivia. No pic today though since it wouldn’t let me copy it. ~SOLDIER AND CAT SAVE EACH OTHER IN AFGHANISTAN~ Stationed in an Army base in southern Afghanistan, Sgt. Knott noticed one day that a feral cat who roamed around the base was limping and bleeding heavily. He lured the cat into his office with a piece of steak and spent the next seven months caring for the cat he named Koshka. The two bonded quickly. Sgt. Knott nursed Koshka back to health, while Koshka comforted Sgt. Knott during the certain danger and emotional toll of war. When it was time for Sgt. Knott to return to the states, he wouldn’t leave Koshka behind. He explained to KPTV how he worked with a local Afghan interpreter who agreed to, in an extremely risky transport, take Koshka to Kabul. Weeks later Sgt. Knott learned that the cat (and his Afghan chaperone) made it safely across “God knows how many Taliban check points,” to Kabul, where Koshka boarded a plane bound for the states. The $3,000 Sgt. Knott’s family forked over to fly the cat home was worth every penny, they said. While Sgt. Knott is currently stationed in Washington state, Koshka is now safe at home with Sgt. Knott’s parents until the pair can be together again. The Oregon Humane Society recently honored Sgt. Knott and Koshka with a 2013 Diamond Collar Hero award for their incredible story of friendship. Thank you for your sweet & generous support dear furiends & don’t forget to pounce over to vote daily for beautiful SPUNKY #161265 so she can wear the crown next month! Have a purrfect day! Loving purrs & hugs, Queen Trixie P.S. Patches says if you didn't come by on her birthday please don't feel obligated to just because we combined our blogs today!Come visit me, Q Trixie~Hail to Queen Spunky#161265~, Fluffinella-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 COTM, Joseph-PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May!, Angel Sherman, K Zaboo-PLZ vote Whiskers #227256 for COTM !, Angel Cloudy loves Angel Oscar, Special Memories page & Patches~PLZ vote WHISKERS #227256 daily in May~.

HI Shadow & Chico Day 1 Thank you so much for asking me to run for COTM. I am so honored. This is the best bunch of kitties and I am so happy to be with you all. Some of you might not know but I am a show cat. I have been in seven shows starting in Jan 2011. We don’t go to all the shows but it’s nice just to have mommy and me time. I’m going to tell you a little of how I felt in the shows, some of the rules and you can come to my gallery and see some of the pictures from the shows. I have won 5 rosettes and mommy put up a shelf for me to display my rosettes and my pictures are around the shelf with my pretty rosettes around me. Just so you know , you don’t have to be a purebred to be shown. I’ll tell you about that first, mom has me in the category of HHP( Household Pet). I will get into some of the purebreds afterwards if I have some time. I go to the CFA(Cat Fancy Association) shows. My last show one of my mom’s furriends gave her a booklet for the TICA(The International Cat Association) shows. They are starting to go to those shows too. We’ll read the booklet and let you know a little about those shows too. I hope you enjoy my catpaign and that I can answer your questions about the shows. I know there are a few of you out there that go to shows too. Tomorrow we will start off with my first show, how I felt and some background. Enjoy your mom and dad time. Kitty kisses SpunkyCome visit me, Angel My Valentine is Eddie, Smokey Vote Whiskers 227256 COTM candidate for May, Angel Sassy Welcoming new Angels, Queen Spunky & Q.Angel Callie 4/2010 Proud of my Baby Sister.

Hi Crystal, It has been a long time since CC and the other Channels since they have added anything new in the Points Rewards for us to use our points. Any idea if they will be adding new items so we can use our points to purchase things? Like toys, beds, etc for our cats/dogs? Here is Crystal's reponse: Hi Lillian, I am not sure. The sales department is in charge of finding out those. My suggestion is to contact companies you’d like to see rewards from and send them an email or letter letting them know that you’d love to see them participate in the CatChannel.com/DogChannel.com Club Rewards program.

~Trixie's Tantalizing Animal Tales~ March 27th ~Visit & vote for OLLIE #211317 today as he celebrates his adopty day!~ Happy hump day everyone & thank you for your visits, comments & votes you pawed my way yesterday! Fasten your seat belts kitties (MOL) because there will be a strategic bump & hairpin turn in the campaign trail today as I navigate away from the lane of recently discovered species into the realm of the recently extinct, which will then carry me into the courtyard of some of the most endangered animals on our planet starting tomorrow to wind things up before our final campaign zoo trip this weekend! Everybody buckled in? Okay then…let’s get rolling! Every day, a few plants and animals go extinct! The time has come to think about this even more as humans & climate changes continue to destroy the concept & natural flow of nature’s food chain. The creatures I’ve featured today all went extinct since the year 2000 so are only a sample of what can, or has, happened when their habitats are changed, food sources disrupted & ‘alien’ animals enter their once tranquil territories. You can see their pics in my gallery! ~MADEIRAN LARGE WHITE BUTTERFLY~ (extinct: 2007) Once upon a time, this magnificent white butterfly flew in the humid subtropical forests of Portugal's Madeira Islands. The gorgeous butterflies had a very limited distribution, as they lived in a very rare type of forest. Researchers believe that pollution from agricultural fertilizers and deforestation could be the reasons for their extinction. ~SPIX'S MACAW~ (extinct: 2004) The spix’s macaw, the world’s rarest parrot, disappeared from the wild recently. Also known as the little blue macaws, it was the only member of the parrot genus Cyanopsitta. This magnificent bird, which came in various shades of blue, was endemic to the state of Bahia, Brazil and the Caraibeira Riparian Woodland. Though some of them are still participating in captivity breeding program, they have been declared extinct in the wild. ~PO'O-ULI ~ (extinct: 2004) The po'o-uli, or honeycreeper, was endemic to Maui, Hawaii. Predators, a decline in food sources and habitat loss are all thought to have been responsible for the beautiful bird‘s demise. By 1997, only three individuals were known to exist. Later, in 2004, the last known male bird also died in captivity. ~PYRENEAN IBEX~ (extinct: 2000) In 1980, about 30 Pyrenean ibex were reported to exist. With the death of their last family member in 2000, they were declared extinct. But, this was not the end. Scientists worked hard and brought them back into existence through cloning. Sadly, the cloned ibex also died due to lung failure. Native to the Pyrenees in France and Spain, no sightings of the ibex have been reported in recent years. Thank you for your support of my COTM campaign dear furiends & I hope I didn’t depress you too much today. Giving each one of you a soft purr of thanks for enduring my twists & turns (MOL) along with a catnip muffin to re-energize you!

#3848 ~Hi Shadow~ From what we can discover it looks as though you & Chico are both eligible for another COTD badge. After going through almost all of your pages we discovered that you got your badge on 2/13/2008 & haven't gotten another one. Chico won his badge on 2/29/2008 & also hasn't gotten another one since then...or at least not that we found. Please don't be too surprised if either of you are mentioned in a shout-out one of these days when we don't have any special event kitties...MOL! Have a pawsome day! Purrs....Come visit me, CMR (Catpaign&MewsRoom), Past COTD Winner's Circle, KITTY HALL OF FAME & COTD Signup Page.

Mom tried to hold me, but I didn't want that!!!! I did finally calm down and went to sleep on the couch. ♥ Sassee 10605 seems a bit better as not meowing so much, but the swelling of her front legs looks to be not much change. She also wasn't so anxious to lick her Arthritis gel this morning. Mom said if it gets to where she quits taking it then mom will return it to Dr. Liz and go to pill form. ♥ Mom scooped the litter box on the patio then emptied the old litter out then brought it in to wash plus she did our big litter box in the front room then she towel dried them then air dried for awhile then put new litter in the one for the front room. Afterwards, Mom stripped dad's bedding to wash, then dusted knick knacks, pictures, cleaned the mirror and swept the floor in dad's bedroom then she started in the front room with dusting everything on the top hutch part of her desk and the big mirror on the wall by her desk then she dusted more things in the front room. She will probably vacuum and such Thursday morning. ♥ We have xcellent news as dad's nephew called him and said he will pay to get mom's car fixed and they can pay him back in small payments. Mom will call the tow company in the morning to haul mom's car to the shop. Dad called and cancelled their Bible Study for tomorrow. We will have more news next week to share. ~...>*<...~♥~...>*<. ..~♥~...>*<...~♥~. ..>*<...~♥~...>*<...~ ...~:♥:~...ADOPTIVERSARIES. ..~:♥:~... ♥ OLLIE #211317 - 3/27 You can read our messages on the CMR page 46883 as we try to make it a point to post one there everyday. ...~:♥:~...PLEASE VOTE FOR 2013...~:♥:~... ♥ VOTE COTD on CC Wednesday March 27, 2013 for: .~:*:~.FREE VOTE DAY.~:*:~.on CC. ♥ COTM CANDIDATE ON CC FOR MARCH 2013 IS: .~:*:~.TRIXIE 172636~:*:~.

Hi Shadow Well, mom is still feeling pretty ill. She is in her kitty jammies, but she said she will probably get dressed and go to the ER later if you tummy troubles persist. She was awake all night last night with pain and only a few hours sleep. I guess it's good mom is not working right now. We are a bit chilly today, it is 44* according to the Weather Channel, but mom's laptop weather says it is 37*...so who do you believe? Them Wings are doing well. They beat Phoenix last night 3/2. Kelsee is so happy. Anaheim and Phoenix both thought playing them was gonna be a 'walk in the park' according to the announcer, but he said the Wings sure proved them wrong and now they realized they are a team to be reconed with. Yesterday mom was so disappointed...she turned on TV wanting and expecting to see "MacGyver" on Cloo for the Monday marathon, but instead of him they were airing "Psych"...mom hates that show and thinks it is so retarted. Why show that? Oh no, what did that UPS man bring mom?? We watched with anticipation as she opened the large box <we knew it was gonna be ours>, and then she started taking parts out of the box and then --are you ready for this? Mom got another floor monster, this one isn't as loud and it is really nice. It is a Eureka Upright that has a Hepa Filter and a hose and all kinds of attachments to clean floors, curtains and furniture and NO bags...mom kinda likes that idea. She has to replace the filetr every 6 months and the belt when it wears out. Well, mom ended up NOT going to the ER. She got lost downtown and gave up and caught another bus home. people are not too nice and mom doesn't trust very many men...one offered to drive her to the Medical center, but mom was very leery, so she just said no....she is gonna wait and see if she can get a ride with a friend so she doesn't have to go alone. Hope you have a pawsome afternoon.
