YAY! At last……
Someone guessed the Teaser!
But before we get to that I want to say YAY for a lot of you because many of you knew where this week’s Teaser shot was taken AND I had promised you it would be a bit easier than the past 3 weeks when nobody got it so it worked! YOU GOT IT! Here’s the photo again:
Where is this? Why it’s THE ALAMO in San Antonio, Texas! That’s right – and know who guessed it FIRST??? My buddy and pal Flynn from Two Devon Cats that’s who! Concatulations Flynn. You get this lovely badge for being the first to guess it was The Alamo.
Lots more of you hopped on The Alamo bandwagon though so you all get this!
And you know if you had no clue that you still win something……………The BIG GREENIE!!!!
I promise next week’s Teaser won’t be impossible either. Well…….sort of not impossible anyway! Tee Hee
My Doc Visit
I had my vet visit yesterday and while one of my thyroid glands was swollen, my doc wasn’t too overly concerned – they took my bloods and will check things out and call me and Mom Thursday with the results. Paws crossed I won’t have to start taking TWO of those disgusting pills every day. If you have any spare purrs – please send them my way!
Until tomorrow – I hope you have a FANTABULOUS Hump Day……………and again – congratulations Flynn !!
Oh Sammy meez so glad dat fings seem to go well at da VETs. Weez’ll be purrayin’ dat all is well wiff yous bloodwork and dat yous not hav to take anymowe pills.

Hi Sammy,
I’m keeping my fingers crossed that the test results will be fine. And as to taking pills, I know that can be really yucky. But maybe you need to keep the British saying in mind, “Close your eyes and think of the Queen and the country!” Do you think that might work for an American cat??!! 😉

You don’t wanna know about our time zone problems. In the summer, all of you jump ahead of us. In the winter, you guys come back an hour. W’re like certain places in Indiana-we never change our clocks. That doesn’t mean that we don’t deserve to have our clocks cleaned, it means that we don’t observe daylight savings time. You’ll never win the battle of the time zones so don’t worry about it. It plays with our minds here. Live events vary an hour and need adjusting. Other events are the same time. For example, in Sept and Oct, we’re like San Francisco where the pro football games start at 10 in the summer and 11 in the winter but the regular shows stay constant. The upside is that we don’t have to reset clocks.
