Roamer - Cat of the Month

Hi!  My name is Roamer, and I'm the PAWS "December Cat of the Month."  Do you know what that means?  You don't?  Well, let me tell you, okay?

It means that my adoption fee is just $75 this month!  And that whoever adopts my handsome, playful self gets a special bag of goodies!  Talk about a bargain!  A lower adoption fee, a new best friend who will love you forever, and free stuff.  Just in time for the holidays! :)

I'm only about 1 1/2 years old, active, SUPER PLAYFUL, and affectionate.  I'm also neutered, microchipped, current on all my vaccinations, and I've tested negative for FIV and FeLV.

Come meet me soon at PAWS.  I promise you won't be sorry. :)

Seven Things and Stars

Me

Hi everybody.  It's me, Moosey!  Guess what?  I got an award!  Our sweet friends at Twinkletoe Tails gave ME the "7 Things About Me" award.  Thank you Oui Oui, Mica Minnie Moo, Julie and Carlos! The rules for this award are pretty simple: I'm supposed to tell seven things about ME. But I'm going to be creative, and tell you TWO things about me, TWO things about my brother Sammy, and about THREE of the adoptable cats at PAWS (my and Sammy's alma mater). :)

ABOUT ME

1. One of my most favorite treats is plain lettuce!  Oh, and by the way ... for all of you kittehs who just read that with horror and disbelief, I also like more traditional treats like tuna, chick-hen, Temptations, cheese and cereal milk. :)

2. I sleep between the mom and the dad every night.  Right after I go on patrol to make sure everything is locked down and secure in our house!

ABOUT SAMMY

Sammy and me

3. Sammy loves being brushed, BUT he thinks he knows how to do it better than the mom and the dad.  He takes the brush from them, holds it down with his front paws, and tries to brush his own face!

4. Sammy is a great older brother, and a very good boy (and so am I).  We do NOT climb the Christmas tree, and we do NOT try to play with the ornaments.  (Sammy and I sure hope Santa Claws is reading this, by the way.)

ABOUT THREE ADOPTABLE PAWS CATS

5. Our friend Patch is a sweet and gentle mancat in search of a forever home.  He loves treats and gentle pets, and would do great in a quieter home.

6. Allie is a super-nice house panther, and she is a total lapcat! She has the softest furs ever, and is waiting at PAWS for a home of her very own.

7. Tessa is gentle and beautiful, and she is a the most graceful jumper ever!  She loves catnip and the laser toy.  Oh, and she is looking for a forever home, too!

I'm having a hard time choosing just seven friends with whom to share this award, so I'm giving it with hugs and headbonks to anyone who does not have it yet! :)

We Won an Award!

We're so excited!  Some of our wonderful blogging friends have given us an award! *

Thank you to our pals Oui Oui, Mica Minnie Moo, Julie and Carlos at Twinkletoe Tails and Sherlock, Ash and Traveler at Sherlock's Feline Purr-spective for the 2012 Blog of the Year Award!  To learn the rules about how the six stars on this unique award work, go here.  In short, this award is for blogs "you love to read" and that "you bookmark and follow."  We love ALL of our blogging friends so much, so this is really and truly an honor for us! :)

Here's our favorite part of the award: we get to pass it along to blogs WE love!  It's so difficult to choose less than, like, 250 of you.  So we'll cap our list of honorees at 16.  Otherwise we're never going to finish this post! :)  So, without further ado, we'd like to give the 2012 Blog of the Year Award to...

Katie Isabella

A Tonk's Tail (er... Tale...)

(Almost) Wordless Wednesday - Kitchen Cats

A funny thing happened recently in the PAWS kitchen...

Gracie: Zoey and I had nothing to do with this.  We've been up here the whole time.

Gracie: See?

Tracey and Kevin: Um, boys?  Does that bag belong to you?

Max: Oh, I love this catnip pillow!

Freddy: I wonder what else is in this bag?  Max: MEOW!

The bag, incidentally, did NOT belong to Max and Freddy.  But they sure had fun with its contents.  All of the sweet and friendly PAWS kitchen cats are available for adoption. Come meet them today! :)
