Formerly Feral Friday with Finn

Hi, everyone - it's me, Finn. And I just have one thing to say.  Black cats rule! 

Take that, Olivia!

TGIF, everybody! 

Remember Me?

Hi, everyone - it's me, Tanner!  You might not even REMEMBER me - because it's been a REALLY long time since I've blogged!  

I could pretend that the reason you haven't seen me around very much lately is because the other kids are crowding me out and taking my blog turns, but the truth is that I've been busy.  Because, as you may (or may not) know, I have a very important job that often keeps me from blogging as much as I might like. 

I am - a WATCH CAT!  This is a self-appointed duty that I took on when I was just a wee kitten, and I have continued it to this day.  I have numerous windows from which I keep watch, and recently I have been quite busy at this, as, for the first time in a long while, we have neighbors to our left. They have a big grey dog that Mom calls a Weimaraner, and a cat that likes to hang out on their back porch. The dog doesn't bother me, but I don't like the cat very much.  I am ok with it if he just stays where he is, but he'd better not try to come in OUR yard.  So far he has not tried to scale the fence and encroach upon OUR property, but if he does, you can be sure that I will be ready for him.  

Meanwhile, I spend a lot of my time these days in the mudroom window - ON WATCH!

Mom is nice enough to serve my meals there, and sometimes I even take a break to let her take my picture.  

So I guess that's about it - I am a cat on a mission, with  not much time for blogging these days, but I do send my best to all our friends in the Blogosphere ... and most especially the lady cats.  

P.S. Tucker wanted me to remind everyone that if you haven't entered our Orijen giveaway, sponsored by MrChewy.com - you can do so HERE. A random winner will be drawn March 31st and announced here on the blog.

Have a great weekend, everyone!

Finn on Friday

Hi, everyone - it's me, Finn!  

It's a beautiful spring morning here in Central Florida, and if my mom didn't have to go to that JOB place, Olivia, Tanner, and I could go outside on the cat porch to stalk lizards and take long, luxuriant sun baths. 

Like this ...  

But since she DOES have to go to the evil JOB place, I guess I will wrestle with Tanner for awhile, and then go tease Olivia for another while.  I might spy on the goings-on in the backyard from the big window in the mudroom.  Then, I'll probably just hang out on top of the cat tree in the living room and take a nap or something.  

Like this ... 

When I want some sunshine, I'll open the blinds a little. And then if I get too hot, I'll close them again. Because I'm smart like that.  And you'd be amazed at how dexterous my little black paws are. I'm telling you ... if I had thumbs, I could rule the world.  In fact, thumbs or no thumbs, I just might do it anyway.  You watch! 

Happy Friday, everyone! 

Oh, and P.S.

If you haven't already commented to win a free bag of Orijen, in the giveaway we're having sponsored by MrChewy.com - you can do so HERE!  A winner will be randomly drawn on March 31st! 

It's Friday ...

but I DO have a job ... 

and I've got lots of ... well, stuff ... to do!

And I think I have to work late, too.  

What's the point of it being Friday if I can't start my weekend?  

And ... and ... and ... GUESS WHAT?  It's raining, too!

Pfttt!

Oh, hey ... Finn would want me to remind you to leave your comment HERE for his Back in Black 

Comment-A-Thon!  We've only got 8 days and 60 comments to go, so leave yours now!  And if you left us one already that's ok.  You can leave one comment a day until the 17th and each comment is another chance to win up to $100 for your shelter or rescue group!  

Finn on Friday

Hi, everyone ... it's me, Finn!  I think we all know that Mom is somewhat ... photographically challenged.  Therefore, I apologize in advance for the picture I'm about to post.  Despite having two perfectly good thumbs, Mom doesn't give me much to work with in the photography department, but she caught this one a couple of weeks ago when I was stalking a lizard out on the cat porch, and even though it's not very good, I still kinda like it.

In case anyone was wondering ... I did catch the lizard ... I am not a house panther for nothin'!  (But Mom took it away from me and set it loose out on the deck where I couldn't get him again. She's such a buzzkill sometimes.)


And now ... here's your daily reminder to leave your comment HERE to help your rescue or shelter earn up to a $100 donation in your name (or a pet's name) ... or whoever's name you want, really.   

And because the only thing better than one black cat is more than one ... here are some of my fellow house panthers looking for homes on Petfinder.com

Watch-Cat

Hi, everyone - it's me, Tanner!  I know you haven't seen me for awhile ... and I'm sorry that you won't be seeing my handsome face today, but I'm busy fulfilling my duties as watch-cat.  See?

As you can see - I'm very busy.  So have a great Friday everyone!

Finn on Friday!

Happy Friday, friends!  It's me, Finn!  I'm so happy that it's Friday, because that means Mom will be home with us for two whole days!  Last weekend she went away, so this weekend she promised that she would stay close to home so that I can help her with stuff.  I am especially helpful when it comes time to make the bed.  I hide under the covers and Mom puts them over me.  And then after she pulls all the blankets up tight, I explode out from under them and make the family nest all cozy again.  Everybody knows you can't nap good when the covers are pulled so tight you could bounce a cat off them!  And now - since I don't know exactly when I'll get to talk to you again, let me share some of my stunning black mink gorgeousness with all of you ....

Mom figured out that the camera on her Droid has an oil painting setting on it.  Cool huh?

   Have a great weekend everybody!  And remember ...



I've got my eyes on you!
