One Eye on the Future

See my new header?  Thanks to Ann & the Zoolatry gals for fixing that up for me.  This is one of MomKatt's favorite photos of me.  Hee hee ...  Sparkle the Designer Cat gave me an idea with her blog entry today - so I'm posting a few of our favorite shots of me during this memorable year, and wishing ALL my blog buddies many humble thanks for reading my postings and our heartfelt, sincere hopes that you all have a wonderful 2012 - as wonderful as my 2011 turned out to be!!! If you've gotten this far ... HERE'S LOOKIN' ATCHA!  (If ya know what I mean!) HAPPY NEW YEAR! PURRS & love Selina & MomKatt Laura & DadKatt Gary

Well, it's almost over, folks, and it's sure been an interesting year for me & my furramily.  The best thing about it - other than me getting my furever home - is meeting all of you, and reading all your blogs and sharing your adventures, ups and downs. I hope 2012 is good to us all, and that many other kitties like me (and some of you) find furever homes with folks like the ones we have.  Some hoomans really ARE the best, aren't they? (MomKatt says she hopes to post a pic of her holding me on here VERY soon!  My Uncle Bill sent me a picture of him & Aunt Rose in their Xmas card, so MomKatt got to see what he looked like!) PURRS! Selina (looking for the champagne & nip)

Some of you that subscribe to my blog might remember this: http://www.brianshomeblog.com/2011/03/urgent-prayer-request-for-forever-home.html Well, MomKatt & I stumbled on it the other day, and I asked her to save the link so that I could make it my (day after) Xmas blog topic. Firstly, thank you to BRIAN.  If he hadn't blogged about me in the first place, MomKatt would never have seen me, never have sat there at her work & thought, "You're coming home with me!" and never would have BEGGED DadKatt to let her say "Yes!" to my plea.  So that's the first "Thank you" that I owe. The second gies to my Uncle Bill Cain.  He fed me at the country club, you see, and ... I blush to say it, fell in love with me.  He is such a kind man.  He took care of me.  He was the one that I finally asked for help by rubbing on his leg. Without his care and concern, I might not have survived very long.  Now, I shudder to think about all the sad things

MomKatt was wrapping yesterday and you know where I was!!! Morticia helped a little too. Between the two of us, we got MomKatt all organized!  Black cats are the best for this kind of thing, you know. Now for a nice day of leisurely napping before the pawrents' have their Xmas Eve dinner & stuff tonight.  Tomorrow they journey to DadKatt's pawrents' house for the day. I also got to play with wrapping paper last night!  (And the tape dispenser, and the ink pen, and a bow ....) HOLIDAY PURRS! Selina  

Complaining about winter, are you?  Fed up with the cold drafts coming in underneath the doors in your house? *I*, Selina, have found THE warmest spot in our house.  Now, normally, this contraption is pretty noisy (ours squeaks like a bag of 1,000 raging, cheese-crazed mice) but, when it's finally QUIET ...  OH.  MY.  CAT. This is THE place to snuggle.  MomKatt says it's called a "dryer".  I finally decided I was gonna check this thing out and, before MomKatt could pull the laundry out of it a couple of days ago, I SPRUNG!   (NOTE:  DO NOT spring BEFORE the drying cycle is done, only AFTER .  Otherwise, you'll just end up on top of a pile of soggy, wet hooman clothing.  Ewww!  Trust me, you don't want "wet cat butt" - make that "COLD wet cat butt"!) Anyways, first, I went WAAAAAAAY to the back, where I figured it was the warmest. Then, I wanted to make sure that MomKatt knew I was in there & didn't shut that door on

Morticia has STOLEN MomKatt's new blankie!  Feisal's breeder gave her a new blankie this weekend for Xmas and 'Ticia has STOLEN it!  Here is PROOF! Boy, she's got some nerve, eh?  MomKatt *was* going to use it on the sofa for when she & DadKatt were/are watching TV but NOOOOOOOO!  Miss 'Ticia put herself on it when it hadn't been in the house 24 hours and meowed, "Mine!" in that way she has!  (I really *must* start aping her technique.  She gets away with murder, that cat does!) Of course, you COULD say, "Well, Selina, you're just cheesed off 'cause it's not on the sofa for YOU to lay on as it covers your MomKatt's lap!  You're not outraged about the theft of property, per se - you're just irritated 'cause you can't sleep on it!" Well, I don't begrudge my sisfur a blankie, do I?  I mean, it's the X-mousie season, after all, so if I harbor thoughts like THAT, Santa Paws won't come, or els

Well ... we don't know what to say today.  My dear furriend, Sparkle, was awarded the Liebster Blog Award, which in itself is VERY cool ... but on top of THAT, she listed your humble one-eyed blogger's mewsings as one of her favorite blogs! http://www.sparklecat.com/diary/liebster-blog-award?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+SparkleTheDesignerCat+%28Sparkle+the+Designer+Cat%29 I don't know what to say but thank you and I'm SO glad you enjoy what is written here, Sparkle.  I also hope that everyone else who follows my humble scribblings enjoys them, or that they at least bring a smile to your face, perhaps when you are really in need of one.  MomKatt says that *I* make her smile a great deal during only one hour!  (She laughs at me a lot - maybe that's a GOOD thing?  MOL) So ... thank you my furriend ... I'm am truly, TRULY honored.  And I simply MUST take the time here to say that I think you're one of the most BEAUT

Here is my little holiday package-wrapping helper ... :)  

And now ... I have one!  (Courtesy of DadKatt & some store called Total Wine!  MOL) I've tried it both ways (this way and right-side up when I can JUMP into it) and I find that this way, I can tuck myself in as far as I can and watch for other kitties to approach, then LEAP out at them & scare the Bee-Jeezuz out of them!  (This works especially well with Livia, who's about as high-strung as they come!  MOL) (Humm ... hope this doesn't make Santa think I'm a bad kitty.  Really, I'm not!  I'm just playin' .... ) PURRS! Selina 

MomKatt took this picture of me this morning ... and it turned out VERY funky!  She thinks I'm being possessed by holidays spirits - what do YOU think? I mean, look at my EYE.  And what's up with that glowing spot on the table, there, next to my left side?  It *is* rather reddish ... I hope Santa doesn't think I've been a bad kitty and won't leave me anything!  I'd better stock up on some Fancy Feast to leave out for him Xmas Eve, just as insurance! PURRS! Selina

http://myblogoffurrycreatures.blogspot.com/ Purring for my furriend, Lucy.  Seems she's not feeling well & not eating well.  GET WELL SOON my dear blogging furriend! Love & PURRS and PotP!  Please stop by their page & leave a comment - I know they'd appreciate it! Purring hard, Selina

THIS is my sisfur Morticia's butt!  She's diving under MomKatt's body pillow in pursuit of the TEASER.  It's so FUNNY-LOOKING!  HA HA HA HA!! (Hey, c'mon ... Grand Dutchesses have to have cheap yuks at their siblings' expense sometimes, too, y'know!  Don't tell me YOU haven't posted embarrassing pics of your sibs in YOUR blogs, hummmm?????) PURRS! Selina (*giggle* *snort* *snarfle*) PS - Just LOOKIT that left back foot!  ROFLMTO!!!
