Back in Action

The human has finally managed to meander back home. While she has been off sightseeing in Florence, Pisa, San Marino and Venice, we have been stuck at home without a computer. We are letting her know that we are not happy about her absence by following her around all over the house, getting under her feet while she walks and meowing like crazy. We also tripped her a couple of times; that will teach her to leave us again!

The Great Raffle Giveaway is winding down.

The Prize Van has arrived in Vegas just in time for the Great Raffle Giveaway. It is bursting wonderful gifts, all which were donated by our generous friends.

Several reasons that I am stoppin by today. First is to show off my new hat, how do ya like it? Second, is to say I am headin over to make a donation on the blogosphere. Third, I am so glad that your mom is home now, the bad news is that I am goin to have to ask ya to work overtime of the production of CCSI II. Graphic design/photo crew has waged a complanit with the union, and goodness know we don't need a strick. I'll help you in anyway that I can, also if you are not Opus & Roscoe do not read any further. (I didn't mean anything that I said about workin ya overtime, I did that just so the crew would feel like I am doin my job.) HEY I SAID NOT TO READ THIS IF YA WERE NOT OPUS or ROSCOE. BOY ya just cannot trust anyone anymore.

Hi guys,
Welcome back! Life is not the same with you two out of action.

If I am lucky enough to win any food, I would like to donate it back to the other kitties who live in the same country as the donar because SS doesn't want to upset the beans in the Quarantine Office anymore. They have earmarked her because of various laboratories and people in the world have been sending her 'suspicious looking' pottery powders in the last two years. She has to explain a awful lot to these rather dense chararcters what they were and that they were for research only and not for snorting.
