I deleted the zoom meeting info by accident.

In December of 2002, mum and a friend, CT, went to the home of a feral colony caretaker. The caretaker had already TNR\’d most of the colony but there was still a mom with 4 eight week old kittens. CT was looking to add to her family and agreed to adopt and socialize one of those kittens.
.
What CT and mum didn\’t know is that they\’d have to CATCH the feral kit. They\’d had no prior experience with TNR and were generally clueless and slightly, albeit good-naturedly, dimwitted, so on the caretaker\’s back porch they crouched, clutching beach towels. The kittens were under a small end table.
.
One by one, three orange kittens ran towards them, thoroughly evading them both. The last kitten was a very floofy brown tabby. They caught her! She was in the carrier and they were ready to leave when the kitten freaked out. And I mean FREAKED out. Freaked so much that she hit her head on the top of the carried and stunned herself still. Feeling the carrier go from thrashing about in mum’s lap to absolute stillness, Mum and CT panicked and ran back to the caretaker\’s house. The kitten was absolutely fine after her self-administered TKO and TKO was know as Tiki by evening\’s end.
.
Tiki currently lives in Long Beach, CA. Two years ago she had a stroke and had some vision problems. She’s been living with CRF for several years. Last year she was radioactive for days after a treatment for hyperthyroidism. This past weekend, she was rushed to the ER with a blockage in a ureter. She’s showing signs of improvement, but her prognosis is guarded.
.
She’s due to come home today and no one knows how long she’ll be able to be at home, but she’ll get to have at least another cuddle on her favorite couch with her favorite human. So i’m in here having a big purr for Tiki.

Bunty’s Food Truck is back with bacon cheeseburger tater tot casserole, orange creamsicle slushies and brookies.

We are ok. Mommy had a short day at work today and tomorrow looks to be a half day. We have a little bit of snow. I was fascinated watching the big flakes falling.

We are ok. Mum was off of work today and spent the day fixing the leaking shower. It\’s amazing how, during the day, you can barely hear it but at night it sounds like the drum line of a marching band. MOL MOL MOL

Our Tuesday Night Dinner is one of my favorites, Assorted Panini Sandwiches with good hot soup, salad and assorted drinks!

A quiet night and morning, so far. We are all doing well but Dad is getting the vacuum so we are all on our toes. The weather is back to 40 in the day and 20 at night.
Mysterious Theater: Einie finds a deaded mole in the hall last week. He denies he did it but… when Dad got up it was not there. He gave us breakfast, made coffee, opened the cat flap, had a snack. then, suddenly, it appeared. Who slipped out acting the steps needed for the deed?(hunt, catch, play, release, catch, play, release, catch, dirty deed.) Or, did someone hide the deaded somewhere to throw off authorities? Or did someone’s Trans Time Topography Travel Tunnel misfire? Or?

What a morning! Breakfast is ready at Rumblers, an some really yummy orange snacks at Orange you glad you’re a ginger!!
Before I got that started, Chessie woke me up really early..she came onto my room and shouted, SHOUTED, into my delicate ears, “MOUSE PATROL!!!” She had smelled a mouse. We patrolled the whole house, thoroughly, several times. If, I repeat, IF there had been a mousie, it left! Chessie crawled back into bed with Dad, while i skittered over here to get breakfast ready.
We are all well, except maybe Chessie, I’m not sure she’s right in the head sometimes! But other than that we are fine!! Snow predicted for last night. Once again, no snow. Stay safe!!

Hey, Gingers! Snacks!! There is more orange hot chocolate from Timmy, I squeezed a bunch of oranges for juice! And two kinds of cookies! Orange Butter cookies, and orange and chocolate cookies!! Enjoy!!

Good Monday morning, Scouts! We are happy that Teddy’s mom continues to do well, get rested and get strong! Enjoy the day! Avocado loaded bagel, bagels and lox platter, fruit or veggie juices.

Hello, dear Scouts! We’re continuing to fill in while Teddy helps his mom get stronger and stay rested! Have a wonderful start to your week!

Bit of an international slant this morning. Pastry selection and coffees from Argentina!

Oyster Harbor, near the Chesapeake Bay. Lots of birds like nesting here.

Wouldn’t it be fun to have a cookout with some owls?!

We are so late! Time for us to go off to bed and have mom read a story. Just before she turns off the light for the night we all guess what the temperature will be on the weather station. I have won 4 times in a row. Yes, I\’m bragging. Nobody else did this good. The weather was mild and barely anyone on the street.

All’s well here. Mom is busy doing End of Year stuff (whatever that means); Seymour enjoyed a mud mask, courtesy of Tyebe and Shoko, who sent him a special delivery jar!
Sunny and cold today. Birds are busy.

We are all doing well today. Rain yesterday and it is about 40. Next week we will be back to the freezing nights.
Kit Snit Report: The swimmer(Toby) jumped into the water(from his counter) not noticing The Great White circling under the pier(kitchen table.) STRIKE! The Sheriff(Timmy) and Captain(Fitz) had no chance saving him. Pieces in the water(a few black hairs.) There are Horrified onlookers(Einstein) who vow to never go near the sea again(to hiss at Rumpy if he gets out of line)

Just dropped in in gratitude to Maggie and Felix\’s mom, MomPat! She has made Seymour very happy!! And Seymour makes her very happy!! We all. Need more Happy in our lives!! ❤️🐾

Mom and I didn’t get much sleep again last night, Dad was restless (in his sleep) and mumbled a lot. At least he had a good night\’s sleep. Otherwise we are all well. I haven’t looked out the window yet. Don’t know if we got any snow. Probably not!

Good morning fellow gingers!!

Good Sunday, dear Scouts! Enjoy your day! Hugs and purrs for Teddy’s mom, who is home and resting well.

Cinnamon pancakes, avocado/goat cheese rollups, hot chocolate smoothies and sausage/egg fry-up.

Good Sunday morning, dear Scouts! We were very happy to hear that Teddy’s mom is home, resting well, planning to take things slowly and she’ll start her PT program today. Here are banana nut pancakes, peach oatmeal smoothie, scrambled eggs and cheese/fruit platter. Enjoy the day!

The crescent moon is so beautiful tonight~!

Chesapeake Bay near Thomas Point Light.

Animal Control just posted this pic of mom this morning, just after Seymour had been microchipped and buzzed by all of his pals at the shelter! This might be the only time to see what he really looks like, since he can’t really stand up or roll over on his back!! P.S. Mom really does have a head!

Very happy day here! Not only did Maggie and I enjoy seeing our pals at Golden Paws, but Seymour is now officially a Sullivan! Mom adopted him this morning after he got microchipped and said goodbye to his pals at Animal Control.
He had a big long dream this afternoon – first one since mom’s had him. Legs and nose twitching, lots of sounds, and we think he was saying goodbye to his former life! Somehow, mom can’t copy the video from her phone camera to here, but somebody might know how to do it. Here’s a still of him sunbathing earlier.

All is good jere. We are getting our stuff ready for the facial and tea for the Golden Paws Den. See ya later.

I\’ve been napping by the fireplace, conserving my energy for the Golden Paws Tea Party and Spa Day Thanks for the great breakfast!

We are Okay here, The rain that came through with the cold front is gone now and it\’s bright, sunny and windy. We are snuggles in front of the fireplace!

My food truck is available for lunch. I have bacon cheeseburger tater tot casserole, creamsicle slushies and brookies.

We are all ok. Drama last night With Miss Fitz and Rumpy. They got into a bit of a snit-fit right as we all settled in to read with Dad. Of course we all jumped up and ran to see what was happening. We all come back to bed and are settled down when Einstein and Fitz go at it. Truthfully all Einie did was sniff Fitz the Drama Queen and she let out her YOWL(You Oughta Whiffie(my butt) Less)! Then it was all fine. Rumpy is feeling better. Looking forward to our Tea Party and hobnob with my elder pals.

Good. Or I got my fellow gingers, marmalade cats, orange kitties, some orange delights fir you to enjoy today: navel oranges! Orange donuts with orange glaze, and a real treat, blood oranges!! And, of course, freshly squeezed oj!!

Good morning!! We are Okey dokey, I think. Dad is still asleep!! We barely got maybe half an inch of snow during the night! Gotta run, getting breakfast ready!!

Good morning. We got more snow. 30\’s today. Not much going on. Mom finally has a Sat off. She worked 6 in a row, Have a great day.

Good morning, Scouts! Hope your weekends are in full swing! Breakfast pizza, caramel lattes, fruit/cheese and maple bacon muffins. Don’t forget Spa Day at Golden Paws for our Senior Scouts at 1.

Good morning everyone! Crepes Suzette, croque monsieur, tea and coffee; assorted quiches, cinnamon lattes! Don’t forget Spa Day at Golden Paws for our Senior Kitties!

Busy day here with just normal stuff. Seymour tried out yet another bed, and got in quite a bit of exercise today! He goes for his microchip on Sat.

Another shot of the Panhandle in FL. Such gorgeous beaches there, and sand like sugar.
