Ho hum... a lazy Caterday. Whatever shall I do?
Rumblemum is doing all sorts of cleaning. I don't like cleaning. Takes time away from adoring ME.

I am a king!
This is me on my mighty throne, over seeing the world.
Outside my window I can see boats and fishies and birdies...
It's so good to be king!

Can I get mine with mustard?
Behold! A Ham roll.
You can see that that Hammy loves the sunpuddles, and his nip pillow. He gets called 'Roll-y Joe' when he does this routine (which is often).
Towards the end he remembers that he left one of his other favorite toys underneath the red tent...

And now a public service announcement...
My friends, we recently found out something important that we want to share with you (and please share this with your friends who have kitties)
This is me with my bamboo. A sweet friend of the Rumbleparents brought it by as a housewarming gift. Rumblemum googled 'bamboo' and saw that bamboo was safe for kitties, and so the plant was welcomed into the home. I LOVED the bamboo! Every place it was moved to, I would follow!
I posted the last photo on Facebook and one of my friends (Miss Karen... and we are forever grateful to her) mentioned that this was a type of bamboo called Dracaena Sanderiana, or 'lucky bamboo' and it's poisonous to cats in the same way that lilies are.
Seriously, in about two seconds flat that bamboo was downstairs in the dumpster, and there is a 'no plants except cat-grass allowed' policy in our house now.
I'm posting this to make you guys aware if you're not already... Rumblemum isn't a plant person (seriously. She can't really even grow cat grass. Yes, you heard that right... my mummy can kill GRASS.) so she thought all she needed to look up was 'bamboo' and that would cover it.
Please be aware that Dracaena Sanderiana (or 'lucky bamboo') is poisonous to kitties, and should be kept out of reach or not at all. If you see it in the house of a cat loving friend, warn them too. I suspect this is an easy one to miss for people that aren't looking at the specific name of the bamboo.
I miss my bamboo... Rumblemum needs to get me that cat grass, STAT.

MY new bed
One of the other new things that we got (without asking ME) is a new bed.
Shocking, I know. I should have been taken to sleep on every single bed in consideration of the final choice, but no. I was not at all consulted.
This is me testing the new bed on it's first day.

We're BACK!
Hello my friends, it's been FAR too long!!!
We're all moved in, and the new place is pretty ok I guess (*whispers* it's AWESOME! Don't tell Rumblemum we said that, we like getting extra sympathy treats! heh heh heh)
Surprisingly, I was a VERY brave mancat right after we got here! Usually I'm a bit hesitant at new situations, but I was roaming around and claiming my spaces right away!
Hammy was really scared, he's only now just getting confident. He's usually the brave guy, but not in this case. I've been really good to him, I let him follow me around and when he's not so confident I mew mew mew to let him know things are ok.
Here we are investigating the new bathroom (Rumbledad says it's for guests. We say it's OURS)
We're having many wonderful adventures and we'll post more this week... but here are some AWESOME photos of MY DUCKIES!!! *happy rumblepurring* The very, very sweet Miss Peggy sent us our very own duckies after we missed out on winning them in the auction for ML (due to Rumblemum's negligence)!
Thank you SO much, Miss Peggy. It was such a sweet thing for you to think of us. And many thanks to Miss Marg (who always runs the auctions so well!) Miss Paula and Miss Sharon (who won the duckies - well played, Miss Sharon! We just saw that she got her duckies today as well, it must be a ducky-day!)

We're going to be away for a while...
As some of you know, APPARENTLY we're moving.
Neither myself nor that Ham were consulted, and we did not get to inspect this new home. Add to this that the Rumbleparents have been out late doing things at the new home and we haven't been getting our dinner on time, and everything is a MESS here...
We are most displeased.
We'll be back next week some time, once we're in the new place. I hope you're all doing well.

A sad day today
Today we lost a very special blogging friend, dear Eric from Eric and Flynn's Adventures.
Eric was a beautiful mancat, who loved his brother and his family very much. Together they had some amazing adventures and nommed on a lot of mice. He really was a special boy, and a big cuddle bunny when it came to his daddy.
Our mummy had a MASSIVE Eric crush, he was irresistible with his sweet little face and beautiful nose.
My heart goes out to Eric's family, and very much to Flynn.
Fly high, sweet angel.
Comments are off today, please stop by Eric's blog and leave a comment there for his family instead.

That darn Ham!
Here's the story.
A handsome mancat, enjoying a leisurely evening in his most beloved tent.
A sound in the distance alerts him to danger afoot!
But our handsome protagonist is determined to be undisturbed!
The noise grows closer.
And becomes a bit of an annoyance.
A VERY persistent annoyance.
*sigh*

A giveaway from our friends at Ambertick!
The wonderful people at Ambertick have given us one of their beautiful cat necklaces to give away to one of you guys!
The necklaces are really cool - they're an all natural way to repel fleas and ticks. The natural resin from the amber keeps away the ticks and fleas by absorbing into the fur. The amber also contains succinic acid, which is directly absorbed into the skin and bloodstream. Succinic acid is highly antimicrobial, boosts immunity and anti-inflammatory. Plus they look really stylish, they have a natural leather fastener!
You can find out more about the necklaces here. They're really pretty - the one we got looks like this (it's still in the package - but you can get the idea) It's 35 - 40 cm / 14 - 16 inches. For a better view of the necklaces visit the Ambertick site.
Want to enter? It's SUPER easy - just post a comment saying you want to win! Additional entries if you share this contest on Facebook!
Contest closes on 03/18/2013 at 12am EST.
Edited to add: Everyone is elegible for this one, regardless of location :)

Can you help? - Updated with good news!
Updated with good news: I rang the shelter - they've both been adopted together today!! I don't know anything other than that (the lady actually sounded really suspicious of how happy I was when I heard they were adopted! hahaha) but I'm so glad they've landed on their feet. In a perfect world it would be Miss Kathleen that adopted them *fingers crossed* ~The Rumblemum
One of the saddest stories I've heard in a long time, poor Miss Kathleen from Feline Purr-spective was forced to put two of her babies into a shelter after her landlord decided she couldn't keep all three of her kitties. (You can read the full story here)
These guys need a special new home, I just know someone out there can help!
This is Sherlock - he's a big cuddlebug, even if he's a little shy at times:
Sherlock is about three years old and irresistible!
This is Traveller (renamed 'Watson' by the shelter)
Traveller is also about two years old. He's a special needs kitty, as he doesn't hear as well at times, but he's adorable and full of love.
Please - if you've been thinking of adopting a new kitty (or two! Two are even BETTER than one!) these guys could really use your help.
There's a possibility that Miss Kathleen might be able to take them back again come June - so maybe if you're just able to foster them till then? These guys will pay you back with so much love!!
Here's the link to the shelter:
- Sherlock's link
- 'Watson' (Traveller's) link
They're in Edmond, OK - but if you're in the US and interested in adopting them I reckon we could get them to you some how - do don't let location be an impediment!
Our heart goes out to Miss Kathleen, and we purr every day for her & Ash and for Sherlock & Traveller.
Edited: Miss Jan has pointed out that they're no longer appearing on the shelter site. I don't know why, and they were up yesterday... maybe someone has adopted them? I sure hope so, because that would mean they're together still...
