Cody and The Chocolate Farm

Cody's Garden Tour and A Little Friendliness

Hi everyone! Cody, your gardening cat here! I help Momma in her garden when it's nice and warm outside. It is not nice and warm out yet, so I thought I would show you something Momma found in a magazine. It is a nursery called Chocolate Flower Farm. They are in Washington State which is where the lovely Miss Peach lives. All of their plants are velvety dark and chocolate colored. Some are darker than others, and some go with chocolate, like cream and purple. In their gift shop they sell chocolate scented candles, teas, cocoa, and bath products. (Not my thing, but I'm a cat you know!)
They even sell garden statues like this kitty that Momma says reminds her of me. But, I'm cuter of course. ;)
She put her name on a mailing list to get a catalog if and when they ever make one. Right now you can only order through the internet. Momma is bummed because we are not allowed to order through the internet because the Daddyman is afraid of "identity theft." Why and how do beans steal each others identity? I am rather confused about that. It's not like another cat can come along and take away my identity. I AM Cody and that is that! Beans are very strange sometimes...
But, there are some very Friendly beans too! Karen Jo, the wonderful Limerick Lady got this award from the beautiful Elin, a kitty who lives in Malaysia. Karen Jo passed it on to some bloggers, including us.
There are no rules, just pass it on to whomever you would like, but be sure to mention Elin. She is a very pretty Persian!
We will pass it on to Shaggy, Scooby and Scout, Yaffa, Sebastian and Naughty Dante, Daisy and her friendly brother Harley, Princess and her cute brother Pierro, and Pretty, Perfectly Parker and Jelly Bean with the big blue eyes. We also want to pass it to Whickey and his siblings. He has not been blogging much and we are worried about him.
Momma always frets when she has to pass on an award because she wants everyone to have it. So, please all of our friends, take this Friendly Award because you are all awesome to us!
Have a Happy Day!

Colorful Cricket

Pop Art Cricket

I wake up with Momma every morning. We are both rather crabby at first. Then she has her coffee and I have my stinky goodness with crunchies.
It is still very cold and dark here in the mornings. After the Teenagergirl and the Daddyman leave Momma and I go back to bed for a bit. I lay on her legs and sigh, she sighs, and then we dose off for a while.
We are very worried about Miss Peach. We hope her surgery goes well so she can have her wedding with Mickey. A late spring wedding would be pretty.
Things are rather quiet here, except for Toeshee causing trouble sometimes. He broke another lamp and jumped on Cody's back and wouldn't let go until Momma squirted him with water.
Toeshee is FAT! He is! Momma feels bad because she made him that way. I just think he has poor will power and he is lazy. Maybe I will help him exercise... I could thwap him and then let him chase me. That could be fun!
Do you know that he is afraid of me? Yup! I am the only cat he won't pick on.
It's good to be queen!
We hope you have a happy week!

Very Special Kitties

Three Mommies who love their older kitty girls.

Please keep Mommy Paula in your thoughts as she has gum surgery today. :( ouch! And Praline who has to still have her blood work done in a few weeks.

Miss Peach will need surgery on her tummy for that tumor and her teeth pulled too. Please think of her and Mommy Karla who obviously is very worried about her. Miss Peach also has infection in both ears. :(

Billie has given me a few scares this past year, but right now she seems to be doing pretty well. She seems to be drinking a bit more water, so I will keep an eye on her.

We hope everyone has a peaceful happy weekend! Lots of Love <3

More Birthday Pictures

Here are some more pictures of Toeshee celebrating his birthday today.

(don't tell my family I put a candle in the Fancy Feast for Billie and Toeshee this morning. They all ready think I'm a crazy cat lady. ) ;)

Please help yourselves to more cake. There's tea and Niptinis and "Nip Julips"
for our southern friends. There's also Party Mix.

Hugs from My Kitties and me!

Toeshee Is One Today!

Happy 1st Birthday Toeshee!

He was just a little kitten when he came to us last summer. Now he is an official Big Kitty! Still wild, still naughty, still adorable.
Please help yourselves to some buttercream cake and take a party hat!
We will be popping in later to set out more treats and hopefully some candid birthday boy pictures.

"Hey everybuddy! Toeshee here! I am so excited about being one today! I don't know why Momma had to drag out the baby pictures, but you know how mom's are. It is very early here, so Momma will set out the more savory treats and Niptini's later. Momma, am I old enough for a niptini?"

Have a happy day everyone!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Billie and Toeshee had a little parade with some pretty green ribbon. ;)
It was tied around the Birthday Present Toeshee got from Dante.

I am getting ready for Toeshee's Birthday tomorrow. For some reason he is being extra naughty today! I guess he's not ready to grow up yet. :)

I will try to get around to visit everyone. I am so behind again.
We Love You All!

Glamor Girl Monday

Glamor Girls

My girls Billie and Cricket are so pretty! Billie is content to curl up and nap. Cricket, when she's not napping is often found looking out the windows. She is looking forward to spring.
The other night both girls were on alert when a stray kitty came up on the front porch and peeked in the window. It was a tabby cat with a white chest like Toeshee, but his/ her fur was shorter. The kitty ran to our garage and in through a little "cat door" that a raccoon so nicely made a couple of winters
ago. I took some food out and slid it into the garage for the poor kitty. I haven't seen her/him since, but Billie and Cricket will let me know if our visitor returns.
We hope everyone has a great week! Toeshee's Birthday is Wednesday and he will be having a party. So please drop by for Fancy Feast, Party Mix, Nip Sweet Tea and cake with Vanilla Cream frosting. :)
Hugs!
