International Box Day

I LOVE boxes and will try to squeeze into ones that are obviously too small for me!!!

Then, of course, this is my absolute favourite box - my sleeping box lined by a hand-knitted woollen blanket by Gran and an old cashmere sweater of SS.......

Post for winter

While our winter can look pretty much like this - misty, wet and grey ....


There are nonetheless some compensations: pretty flowers still blooming in the gloom ...


Colourful birdies still visiting.....


But hey, I've got myself some floof to keep me warm....

Tummy Tuesday

Just a short post to show off my ever increasing floof on this cold, windy day. Please feel free to rub - I just LOVE having my tum-tum rubbed!

Thankyou all for coming and helping me celebrate my graduation on Friday.

Graduation Party

Graduation Day

Today is a big day for my SS and me. It’s her graduation day! I have been her study pal ever since I adopted her many years ago. We have corseted together in the little study room in the back garden for long hours working on assignments and producing the thesis. I have curled up on her lap to keep her warm on cold nights. I have sat on her books and papers to remind her of their importance. I have walked across the keyboard of her computer to ‘help’ with the typing. I have provided unwavering support in times of uncertainty and means of relaxation in times of stress. Therefore, I feel that I should have an active role on this day and claim equal honour.

Like SS, I have invited my sissies and furriends to the graduation held in the Great Hall of the University of Sydney and the traditional afternoon tea party on the lawn of the Main Quad. The kitties at Zoolatry and Topcatrules have made these beautiful graphics of me as presents….

Here I am, sitting at the park in front of the Clock Tower gate of the university waiting for my furriends to arrive from their faraway homes…

As with all graduations, individual portrait and photographs with furriends and family are mandatory.

This is a photo taken by Sassy of me as I make the speech at the ceremony….


My special furriends and I are gathered at the entrance of the Great Hall, where all graduation ceremonies of the university are held…


A group photo with my siblings-in-floof who have come all the way from the USA (Fin and Miss Kitty in the back row), Germany (Siena, front right) and Norway (Theodor, front middle)…..




Here I am, at the base of the stairs which lead to the room of my SS’s professor to whom she has gone to pay her respects…..

Another photo with some of my furriends at the cloister, where we gather for the traditional afternoon tea after the ceremony.….

Please help yourself, efurryone! Thankyou so much for coming and helping me celebrate!!! From now on, I would like to be addressed as Dr Momo on formal occasions.

Mission accomplished

Armed with inside information from 'furriends' and knowledge of the local area, we have little difficulty in locating Karl and Ruis. Although we have actually been spying on them for a while, we wait to make a grand entrance as they sip on their niptinis....


As we are already there, we may as well enjoy ourselves and parteeeee....




I bet that they are secretly pleased that we found them. Two's company and three a crowd. There are definitely more than three of us.

For more pictures, please head to the resort at Bora Bora, where we are staying and join the party. All pictures are by Karl and Ruis.

Lastly, today is Hug Your Cat Day. Let's run before we are smoothered!!!

On a mission

Now that the CCSI show has been aired, the executives are all taking a well earned rest. What's this? Pssst, it's Karl's and Ruis's 1st wedding anniversary and we hear from some kitty that they are going away to an undisclosed destination for a romantic holiday. What? Without us????

This calls for immediate action. Now, Sassy has given them a South Pacific island for their use and they have been looking at swim wear earlier. OK, kitties, we head for the South Pacific. It's a big expense of ocean and numerous idyllic islands but being a southern kitty with a Grandma who has been on several cruises, I know the area well.

Umm, this looks pretty good to me. Follow this up at Karl's and Ruis's blog.

CCSI Cast Party

As it is customary to give a cast party after a successful production the executives ponder over a glass of wine as to where it should be held...


Umm, who is that looking out of the window? Dr Tweety! He has such good hearing that at the whisper of food and party, he is the first to snoop out what is going on.

The decision is unanimous - we have such a good location why not have it right at the set. Bring on the food, drinks and balloons...

Even our friends at the Bridge come to join in the festivities...

For more actions and entertainment please visit Sassy, Karl and Ruis.

Hope all had fun watching our production and thanks to all the actors and production team for all the hard work involved and the fun we all had on the set. Those who haven't seen it should head over to the re-run at Sassy's. Free popcorn and sodas are still on over.
