Anipal Photo Hunt #10: How Annoying!

So there I am, minding my own business, in the dark, secret recess of my hidey castle, when suddenly, unexpectedly, out of no freakin' where... FLASH!!!
Do your human do this to you, too?? What the frickin' frack is that all about anyway?? Why do they find creeping up on us in the dark only to flash a bright light in our furry faces so compelling? I can't see anything but blurry blue and red spots for like five minutes afterward. Is that the desired effect? They want me to see spots? Srsly.

HOW ANNOYING!

What ticks you off? This is your turn to rant about anything at all that you find annoying. That actually felt kind of good. ; )

Versatile Blogger Award!

My Puerto Rican twin bro, Pirulo Furry,

gave me this killer Versatile Blogger Award!

Pirulo Furry

Thanks, Pirulo. I really appreciate your friendship and that you enjoy my blog. It took me three weeks to get around to fulfilling the duties of one on whom this honor has been bestowed, but here we go! First I need to tell the world seven things about me, then I need to give the award to three great blogs. Here goes!

Seven Things About Me, by Cokie the Cat

1. I sleep naked in (or on) my castle in the bathroom.

A man-cat's bed is his castle.

During the day I wear pants, as I am continence-challenged, the long-term result of a fall from a palm tree.

I spent 3 days in that palm tree on the right.

2. At least one night a week, Dad picks me up and 'flies' me around the house stretched out like Superman while he hums the tune of Wagner's "Flight of the Valkyries." I don't know why.

I feel a ride coming...

3. Like Pirulo, I love prawns, but I call them shrimp. I also love tilapia fish and tiny bits of chicken and beef.  

Mmm. Shrimp.

4. I'm an indoor cat, but Mom and Dad let me go out on the balcony, or walk down the stairwell to the courtyard as long as they're with me. I like to just go out for a few minutes and then come back in. I love to sit in front of the screen door to the balcony and sniff the air and feel the breeze on my whiskers with my eyes closed. They love it when I do that, too.

5. I weigh 12 pounds. I used to weigh 14 pounds when I was younger, but now I'm 16 and I guess you shrink some when you get older. I'm still pretty strong and fit though.

6. I talk a lot. Lots and lots. Srlsy. I have something to say about just about everything. You can hear my voice on my Voki - the cartoon pic of me on the widget in the right margin of this page.

7. I'm the Editor-in-Chief of The Anipal Times, which is an online daily newspaper for anipals and the humans who love them. About 40 other wonderful anipals volunteer with me as writers, editors and management staff, and all of our ad revenue goes to animal charities.

Our current charity is a local Los Angeles husband & wife animal rescue organization called Hope for Paws. Watch this video to see what they do:


Now, it's my turn to give three blogs The Versatile Blogger award. Hmmm. How to choose? How to choose? Ack. Alright well, here we go:

1. E.K. Editor Kitty, in Oregon, U.S. www.editorkitty.com
2. Dog Gone It Byron's Blog, in Ontario, Canada http://doggoneit-byronsblog.blogspot.com/
3. Freya and Teego at A Cat Called Freya http://www.freyacat.co.uk
And, heck. When I was at Freya's blog, I discovered this other super cool blog that I have to add too now!
4. Banana and Cheese http://bananaandcheese.com/

Ok. Now you four blogs are "IT"! Nab the award from the top of this post for yourselves, and then you are herewith entitled "Versatile Bloggers" henceforth! It is your obligation to tell your readers, including the new readers who will find you through my blog, hopefully, seven things about yourselves. After that, do as I have done, and pass on the award to three new worthy recipients!

Congratulations and good luck!

Anipal Photo Hunt #8: I'm With the Band!

This week's Anipal Photo Hunt blog-hop is 'I'm With the Band.' This is one of mom's favorite pics and Jazzy likes it too, though she doesn't like me posting it cause the girls end up using it as screensavers. Guess they like the way my jeans fit...  ; )
