3.8.13 Belated Noel Birthday Bash

Yesterday was Noel’s 6th birthday.  Mommy was so busy saying thank you to the Three Moggies for the Liebster Award that she forgot to throw a party on-line for Noey (Mom’s nickname for her) until she was already writing the blog.  But Noel deserves a special day all her own; because she is a special cat.  If you are new to DogDaz please go back and check out some history of Noel, the Christmas Cat.  You can read about her very difficult sickly start in Noel’s Story: Near Death to ALpha in 5 Years or see her blogging skills in Dear Reader: Question from Noel.  You could also search our blog using the key word: “Noel,” and then you will see her in a lot of stories.

She is one great cat and gets better and better every year!  Happy 6th Birthday, Baby!  Mommy Loves You!

3.7.13 Thankful Thursday: Thanks 3Moggies

Three of my favorite blog cats, Oscar, Henry, and Archie, were so kind to bestow upon us an award called the Liebster Award.  If you do not know them yet (which I think is almost impossible for anyone following kitty blogs) check in on them at: My Three Moggies.

The Moogies asked us the following questions to qualify for the Liebster Award and Noel, the Christmas Cat, is going to answer for the zoo, since she is the oldest and, of course, a cat:

liebster-award (1)

1 – Out of the three Moggies which is your favourite?  Archie, because he is almost all white, like me.

2 – What is your favourite treat?  Roasted chicken

3 – If you was not the animal you are now what would you have liked to have been? A white tiger

4 – Prefer cats or dogs? Now that is a silly question: Cats Rule – Dogs Drool

5 – Who is your super hero? Simon’s Cat

6 – Do you get the opportunity to sleep with humans? I could, but the babies are on Mom’s bed, Nine and Stella, so I tend to stay in the hall and watch over everyone.  The goofy dogs are in their kennels, thank goodness.  I wake Mom up sometimes but that is very rare.

7 – How old are you? I am 6 years old today (according to my adoption records)

8 – What is an average day for you? Sleep, eat breakfast in my special spot, sleep, bother Mommy (like I am doing right now in front of the computer screen so that she can not see what she is typing), sleep some more in the office with Mommy while she works, eat dinner in my special spot, sit with Mommy and watch TV, sleep, have a before bed snack on the kitchen floor after the dogs go to bed, sleep in the hall outside Mommy’s room to make sure that everyone is safe.  

9 – Are you a clean animal? White cats are impeccably clean!

10 – What are you having for dinner tonight? Some Wellness dry, mixed with some Friskies Wet and water.  

Thank you my friends.  And now to nominate 3 bloggers who I would like to know more about:

Bacon, of PigLove 

Speedy, of SpeedyRabbit  

Roxy, of @RoxyTrvlingDog 

The questions we have for you are:

1. What is your favorite hiding place?

2. If you could talk to your human for 5 minutes in their language, what would you say?

3. What is your most favorite food?

4. If you could go anywhere in the world, where would it be?

5. Do you have a hero?

6.  Do you have a bed time?

7.  What makes you laugh?

8.  What do you do that makes others laugh?

9.  Does anything scare you?

10.  Do you know how to dance?

Thank you Archie, Henry, and Oscar – this was fun.  

– Love Noel, the Christmas Cat, and the rest of the DogDaz zoo: Louise, Sofie, Nine, Stella, and Mom

3.2.13 Caturday: Zackary In A Rainbow

Zackary2008

Zackary

Zackary was the sweetest of cats.  He left us in Feb 2010.  He was a very quiet quy and liked to have one-on-one time with his people.  If too many strangers were around, you would never find him.  He and Cuddles were litter mates, though they did not seem to hang together much as they got older.  Russian Blues like to talk and he did have his special conversations.  Gertrude and him were the best of friends for many years and she missed him a great deal when he passed on.  He lived well as the beta male, with The Muffin Man as his leader.  Zack was happy with that.  Hard to believe he is gone 3 years already.  Noel channels him in the late afternoon with this weird little rug dance that he used to do at the top of the stairs; using her claws to move around in a circle.  He was a big tail chaser too.  Thinking of you Zacky Boy.  Hope you are still enjoying the rainbow.

3.1.13 Follow-Up Friday: Almost There & A Chair

winter walk 1Following up on Monday Mischief, the dogs and I have started to walk a little again.  Recovery is about 50% there, if I don’t screw it up.  I tend to try and do to much to soon, because I am impatient.  I see the surgeon next week, so we will see what he thinks.  I am walking the girls further and further every day.  We are all really happy to be getting back to ‘normal,’ especially with spring coming.  I haven’t tried to walk down to the water since last month when I had trouble getting back up the hill and started to cry.  Maybe soon though.

Louise on her chair

In response to the Wordless Wednesday post on Louise hanging off her office chair, everyone said that I need to go out and get her a dog bed, bean bag, coach, or (my favorite from Cupcake) a Barkolounger.  WunderButt offer us his chair, which was very nice.   This weekend I definitely need to see what the options are.  I think she will still hop up in her chair most of the time because she likes to be up at my level but thank your all for the suggestions.

People were in love with the little Munchkin kitty that I posted a GIF of on Wednesday.    They are like a corgi kitty: little legs with a big heart.  Peanut turned me on to this newly created breed of cat that was noticed around 1983.  The history can be found on Wikipedia – Munchkin Cat. 

I can’t believe today is the first of March.  That means 20 days until Northern Spring!  Yahoo!!!!  Birds have been flocking to the feeders and the bird bath.

2.23.13 Caturday: Hanging With The Nomie

DSC01299Gertrude and Cuddles were not friends,  But they did love to look out the back door in the winter at the birds in the bird bath.  Somehow a common enemy brought them together.  Gertrude passed in 2007 and Cuddles in 2010. 

We seal that backdoor in the winter to try and keep the draft out. Our solar hall Nome makes sure that we can see our way down the hall at night.  I guess you could say that the cats were ‘Hanging with their Nomies.’
