The Grinch Who Stole Our Hearts and Farrah Update

Grinch was neutered on Tuesday and will be leaving us tomorrow to go to his rescue in Maryland. We are going to miss him so much. What a funny little character and sweet as can be! His new foster mom is really excited to finally meet him!
Here's little Farrah!! Wow, I've sure missed this little girl and so has my camera. As you can see she's still quite the little model! Her new mom says:

All is well and she's doing great! She is so much fun - we are all completely in love with her! I tried to send a video but it wouldn't work - I'll try again. But the video is
of her attacking our other cat - really funny - they play all the time and
also snuggle in my bed all night - they're great together. My daughter got a cute
photo this weekend of her and our dog Ben sleeping together by the front
door in the sun - I'll have her send it and I'll forward it.

LOVE IT!!!!

The Tree Is Up!

And look who's enjoying a little couch time! Gretchen!

The Anti-Gravity WEB RUNNER

We were contacted by a company asking us to review a toy...... of course, I said YES! It sounded like lots of fun for the kitties. A remote controlled black widow spider that uses patent-pending air suction technology, allowing it to operate on the floor, walls and even upside-down! It's an Anti-Gravity WEB RUNNER by Fantasma Toys and it retails for $39.99 at Target, Amazon.com, RadioShack and Fantasma Magic Online Store.
I was so excited when the package arrived. After letting it charge for a bit, I turned it on and watched for the reactions from the cats. I thought the noise of the spider crawling would scare the cats, but it actually got their attention and drew them into the room. I found the wireless controller a tad challenging to navigate, but that's probably because the only remote control I am good at working, is the one to the TV. I couldn't find a way to keep the spider going straight, but the cats loved it when it went in circles. Maya was very intrigued and followed it all over the house and Ziggy liked to stalk it. Ferris on the other hand wanted to chew the legs off. Silly cat!I was very impressed by it's ability to run across the walls. I was afraid the suction noise would scare the cats off, but again, they didn't seem to notice or mind.

In all, we thought this toy was lots of fun and we'll be playing with it often!

So Much To Be Thankful For!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO ONE AND ALL!!!

Mr. Grinch

Meet our newest shelter foster kitten, Grinch! I don't know where he got his name...... he's definitely not a mean one :) I guess it's because of his amazingly loooong ear furs! Aren't they spectacular? He'll be with us until next Friday. He will be traveling to a rescue up North!! He's nursing a URI (of course!) but hopefully I can get a handle on it before it gets too bad.

Gretchen's Big Night Out

Saturday night, Gretchen decided to come out and roam the house. She went in every room! She enjoyed laying under our bed the most. Not sure Maggie May liked that very much, but there was no hissing or fighting. Things are going very well!

Gretchen

She still hasn't made it past the hallway......yet :)
