Hello Friends……….
If you’re reading this, then we’re all still here…..that Mayan calendar thing about the end of the world happening on December 21, 2012 is perhaps not right….not gonna happen….at least I hope not.
Mom where does it say today’s the day???? I can’t read this dingy-dang thing!
What WOULD be nice is if as of today the world did at least CHANGE…..you know, like “peace on earth, goodwill toward men” kind of change. Now that’s something I could wrap my paws around and hold onto. That’s something to wish for. If starting today, there would be no more war, no more poverty, no more pain, no more disease, no more starving, no more homeless people or animals, no more – well, you can see my problem here – I couldn’t possibly name everything I’d wish “no more” of because there’s too much stuff!
We’re lighting a candle to wish on!!
But I realize that might be asking a bit much…….perhaps I should just be happy to be HERE period.
If, on the other hand, the end of the world just hasn’t happened today as yet – like maybe it’s happening later in the day or something….may I take this opportunity to bend your ear and say how happy I am you’re my friend? How happy I am that you visit me every single day (or as often as you can anyway) and listen to my tales of cattitude??? I LOVE YOU!!!!
Happy Friday Peeps!!!!

I have mixed feelings, I would to world to end so I don’t have to pay a loan I took or taxes next year, but then a friend of mine from California is coming on Sunday and I want to see her, I don’t know what to wish for.

How about wishing for the possibility there was an error on the exact date on that Mayan calendar thingie – and the world doesn’t REALLY end until after your friend visits you on Sunday????? Then you don’t have to pay back the loan or pay taxes AND you get to visit with your friend too………see???? I solved your problem!!!

Hi Sammy! We read you most everyday, but we don’t often have anything bright or interesting to say, but just in case this is our last chance…. We really enjoy your blog. Since we read so many blog but don’t blog ourselves, we are trying to get others like us to put RWB, Readers Without Blogs, in the sign off when they comment. That way no one is searching for our blog. Bloggers are very kind and often want to read their commenters blogs too. Anyway, Savannah and her mom, Miss Linda, like the idea and we wondered if you thought it was a good idea too? We believe there are lots of lurkers out there reading but never commenting because they don’t feel like they are part of the blogosphere. But writers always need reed readers no matter what they write! So thanks for letting us promote our idea in your blog. We’ll read you tomorrow, if the world’s still turning! Thanks!
Purrs to you!

Hi Mistletoe and Hitch! I knew that you read my blog when you could and that you didn’t have a blog…..I do think the idea to put RWB in your signout is a great idea though. I can remember the first time you left me a comment I tried to “find” you in the blogosphere and couldn’t. Last time I checked my stats for my blog I discovered there were quite a few readers I didn’t know and who had never left a comment……I guess when I write a blog and publish it, I’m just happy ANYBODY wants to read it PERIOD! It’s nice to “return the favor” but you can’t always do that when others have no blog…..but like I said, it’s just FABULOUS to have readers no matter what.
I do hope you guys have a super fabulous Christmas and here’s to another year of great blogging!!

Dear Sammy,
Yesterday while Mommy was working she was watching the news and they went to New Zealand to ask the announcers there about the end of the world. These guys had a Movie all rigged up behind them of the mass distruction with meteors coming out of the sky and how how this band of distruction was slowly creeping around the world and then POOF!!! They laughed and the scene switched to a bright sun shiny day and they all had a great laugh!
Mommy thought it was so funny she was ROFLO!!!
And Sammy
#1 We Loves yous
#2 Vacuums is not all THAT bad
#3 We thinks RWB is a great tagline

Hi Bailey…..I could hardly believe it but Mom didn’t make bacon this morning! She made SPAM – which she claims both she and Dad remember from the OLD (very) days. I have to admit when she offered me a teensy bit it was SALTY like bacon – it actually wasn’t too bad but I’ve been promised bacon for Sunday breakfast. I guess I won’t hold a protest march then.

Hi Nylablue….humans just don’t “get it” do they?! I think it was quite reasonable in light of all the uncertainty with this Mayan thing to ask to open pressies early. I did the same thing. I also got the same reaction – Mom said “Heck No!!!”…….sigh…….now that we know the world isn’t grinding to an end – YET – I suppose our Moms knew what they were talking about!!

Hi Savvy……our Monster Day was actually pretty quiet all things considered….I had escaped early to my basement and hardly noticed a sound….then when I came back upstairs I saw how NICE AND NEAT it was AND I had fresh tissue under my toy stash. Nice! I hope you and your family have a magical Christmas Savvy – you deserve it – adjusting to life in a NORMAL environment with humans has to be tough after what you’ve been through but you’ve done it with class and a smile. I was happy to watch from afar……here’s to a super holiday and special new year my friend!
