Getting better

I am deeply appreciative of all the well wishes and purrs that all my old and new furriends have sent. I feel so loved and warm, despite the fact that the temperature is not so high here. Below are two very cute cards that I have received amongst the good vibes, purrs, purrays, healing teas and chickens.



Thankyou efurrybuddy!!! You really are the bestest friends that a kitty can have. When I am better, I shall come purrsonally to visit you all. At present, I am trying to get a bit more strength and weight on as I have lost nearly 25% of my weight in the last few days.

Thankyou efurrybuddy

Thankyou efurrybuddy ++++++ for all the purrs and well wishes. It must have been all your purrs that I am getting slightly better. I have started eating a little chicken meat and drinking a bit of milk with some coaxing. I am still hiding under the bed and refuse to be cuddled and touched. SS is still worried because I am losing weight +++. I am under 3 kgs!!!





The toys are gifts from SS's niece who is a fan of Hello Kitty.

Apparently, the kitty is doing well, mieowing simultaneously from both
mouths and purring but eating out of only one mouth.

The Return of the King

I bet you kitties had no idea where we were going? Or did you? Well, it was pretty obvious. Fin - Finland!!!!!!


Since it was Fin's land, we thought there should be some adjustment to the flag....

Now, that's more like it!!!

On our way to the Cathedral, we passed the picturesque waterfront....


Then, it was onward to the Lutheran Cathedral where Fin received the adulation of the adoring multitude.....

Doesn't she look majestic way up there?

Next we checked out the train station, not that we needed transport because we had the Magic Carpet to take us wherever we want to go .....


top: left - moi, right - Siena
bottom: left - Fin, right - Miss Kitty

Finally, we grew sick of the city and headed for the countryside. Being forest cats, we naturally checked out the forest....


And, of course, the Lapland....


l. to r. Fin, moi, Siena, Miss Kitty

Do you like our tappee?

By now, we are all getting a little homesick for our mommies, especially little Siena. This is a long trip for a kitten. So we all decided to head home on our carpet......


l. to r. Fin, moi, Miss Kitty, Siena

Thank you efurryone for coming with us on our journey!!!!
Momo, Miss Kitty, Fin and Siena signing off.

The arctic

While we were at this part of the world it seemed a pity not to venture to the beautiful Arctic circle. Fin was first to suggest it and volunteered to be the guide to show us the wonders of this region.


First, we headed off to Svalbard Island.....

to admire the polar bears from afar.....


This furry was a tad too big for us to take on, even though there were four of us. So we were quite happy to watch him from the safety of our Flying Carpet.

Then, it's time to gasp in awe of the Northern Lights....




Please visit Fin, Siena and Miss Kitty for their stories of our adventure.

Next stop - we are going to Fin's territory on Sunday! Please join us there .

The Return of the Natives - 1

At long last, we arrived at our ancestors' home.....


The forest of Norway



l. to r. Moi, Siena, Fin
right corner: Miss Kitty

We had a great time exploring the forest and before we knew it, it had gone dark and cold....


l.to r. Moi, Fin, Siena, Miss Kitty

Little Siena was tired and curled up for a nap while we older kitties stood guard. Good thing we have our long floofy coats to keep us warm and dry.

The next morning we came across a cabin in the forest.....


l. to r. Siena, moi, Fin, Miss Kitty
We rested up a little bit before exploring further north in the country where it was much colder.

Then, all of a sudden the weather turned bad. It snowed and snowed.......


We decided maybe it was time to go. Fin has a large estate nearby so we thought we would all accompany her there to make sure her minions were behaving themselves. However, before leaving Norway, Fin thought we should experience more of its natural wonders, so we headed off to the Arctic circle....

To be continued......

Momo, Miss Kitty, Fin and Siena signing off . Please visit their blogs for more of our adventures.

NFCs at Köln, Germany

Finally we got to Köln, Germany, the home of little Siena....


Great view from the air. Don't you think?
After settling in and given nice dishes of milk, we were taken to look at the 'fischies'....

Momo: Is that what we are having for dinner?????
Fin: You think that's enough for the four of us?
Miss Kitty: All these kitties are only interested in eating!!!!
Siena: Uhhhh?????

Being forest cats we liked to climb trees, so Siena led the way to her favourite tree in her garden..


Miss Kitty decided to survey our surroundings at the upper branch while Siena expertly clung onto the main trunk and Momo positioned herself comfortably at the crook.

OK, where was Fin? She had volunteered to be the taster and gone to the kitchen to snopervise the preparation of our dinner.

To be continued.....

Remembering GirlGirl


Interrupting our journey with a tribute to GirlGirl, the friendly, spunky hamster who went to the Bridge. We'll miss you lots and look forward to partying with you again one day.

The NFCs in Disneyland

After we picked up Miss Kitty, she casually mentioned that Disneyland was just down the road. Now, we couldn't miss THAT, could we? So off we went, giving it the once over....


l. to r. Moi, Fin and Miss Kitty

We were having so much fun that it was dark before we were finally on our way to Germany.....


l. to r. Moi, Fin and Miss Kitty

The Temptations is a thoughtful gesture from Fin's mom, so that we can have snacks on our trip.

Please checkout the entries of Fin and Miss Kitty for their experiences in Disneyland

To be continued tomorrow......

The Diaspora of the NFC

As a breed, the Norwegian Forest Cat (NFC) is very old but it was not regarded as anything other than a standard house-cat until the late 1930s, when a small number of 'Skaukatts' were shown in Germany and received very favourably by the judges. The cats are now being bred and shown in several countries including the United States, United Kingdom, Australia and Japan. They are rumoured to be related to the Maine Coon and the long-haired Manx.

Norwegian Forest Cats have a thick fluffy double-layered coat, tufted ears and a long bushy tail to protect us against the cold. Our coat is essentially waterproof due to its coarse outer layer and dense underlay. Like the Maine Coon, the adult males are very large cats, weighing 6 to 10 kg (13 to 22 lbs), while females are approximately half that size. Our hind legs are longer than our front legs. We are very intelligent (of course) and playful kitties that enjoy human company. The nickname of "Wegie" began in the United States and is a shortened version of the word Norwegian. For the purists, Norsk skogkatt is the Norwegian term for us.

In the CB, we have representatives from Germany (Siena), the US (Miss Kitty and Fin) and Australia (moi!!!).......

Please biggify to have a good look!

On Miss Kitty's suggestion, I organized a trip for all of us to pay a visit to the land of our ancestors, since none of us have ever been there before.

First, I have to get transport. What better than a Magic Flying Carpet that would get us there in style and comfort. Furthermore, there is no quarantine or custom clearance and it requires no gas, therefore we don't have to worry about pollution and carbon offset.

After much pondering, SS and I decided on this.....


Looks pretty good, huh???? So I set off to Las Vegas to pick up Fin and onwards to California where Miss Kitty lives.

Please feel free to accompany us on our adventures......

Visitor

Last night there was a knock on the back door late at night. Well, it couldn't be me as I was already in the house and the birdies had all gone to sleep.

It was....

The poor little thing looked so thin and obviously hungry; he also had dirty hind legs. We have seen him around the neighbourhood in the past but he seemed to be better nourished then. He had visited my garden before but only walked along the fence but never came near the house. We guessed his humans must have forgotten to feed him or had abandoned him????? He wanted to come into the house but I hissed +++, so SS fed him outside with some dry food (he ate 2 dishes) and some milk. After a while, he left. We sure hope he has a family. Please pray for him!!!

Post Halloween 'Party'

You may remember that we kitties were going to NYC for a Halloween Party at Asta's. Well, we decided to continue after the celebration by taking her to lunch. Of course, we were wearing our costumes since the decorations were still up everywhere. We want our Halloween Party to last as long as possible.

Here the boys went to pick Asta up at her home while we girls waited at the restaurant .....

l. to r. Opus, Karl, Asta, Ruis and little Tintin (in front)

We had a loooooong, loooooong lunch at a restaurant close by while the mancats went shopping for electronics......

l. to r. Asta, Mrs. Oz, Sassy and moi

They were very thoughtful and bought all of us ipods. Just hope they have custom-made earplugs for kitties.....

l. to r. Karl, Ruis, Sassy, Asta, Opus, moi, Mrs. Oz and Tintin (in his new hat)


Now, homeward bound in the Magic Flying Van. One last look by the girls at the Big Apple as dusk fell while the mancats were busy navigating and driving.......


Please visit Karl, Mrs Oz, Tintin, Sassy, Asta and Opus for their versions of our adventure.
