I work hard to make this place a home! - Rumbles

I am a VERY hardworking mancat. I make sure that things around here are just so.

I even do the menus!

There are some excellent tuna recipes in here!

Our new buddy... and maybe yours??

Check out this super handsome fella!!

Front view

WOAH! What a beak!

Have you ever seen anything like him? Probably not because he is SO rare!

This little guy is a rare white coloured 'North Island Brown Kiwi' bird (ok, so he's a STUFFED version, but he's still COOL) They say this kiwi is regarded as a 'special gift' and a 'sign of new beginnings'.

We LOVE him to bits (I may have even nomed his beak a little. But just a little)

Om nom nom

Boop!!

This little guy even TALKED to me!! Of course I had to talk back...

Why yes, I do think you're quite fetching in white!

That Hammy OF COURSE had to nose his way in as well.

Hey, he's MY Kiwi buddy!

What you lookin' at, Mister Kiwi?

Hey, we almost match!

As much as we love our little Kiwi pal, he is not going to be a permanent member of the Rumblefamily. He could be a permanent member of YOUR family though!

Our sweet pal Miss Mini from 'George the Duck' blog has had some serious medical problems of late, and the wonderful Cat Blogosphere has put together an auction to help with the costs of her medical bills. Mister Kiwi is the item we've donated, and that you can bid on to own!

He makes genuine Kiwi 'peeping' noises, in addition to being soft and fluffy (and having a nom-able nose).

We bought him from the Department of Conservation, and part of the proceeds go towards supporting the 'Native Bird Programme'... so if you buy him you're also helping his real-life counterparts!

We will be paying the shipping, including international shipping.

There are heaps of other items on auction - so if you're not into Mister Kiwi, take a look at some of the fantastic things that people have donated!

Please stop by and make a bid on this very special fella, to support a very special lady-cat.

BOOTIFUL Miss Mini

Sorry we've been a bit quiet - Rumbles

Rumblemummy has been a bit tied up of late. She thinks this handsome photo of me being a gentle man-cat will make up for it.

I am an angel. Gimme tuna. 

Wordless Wednesday - Hammy

Long Rumble is long - Rumblepurr

I am a secret hidden cat, stalking that Ham.

Gonna GET you, Hammy Ham!

A wild Ham - Diego

The Rumbleparents LAUGH at me (can you believe it?) When I get really excited about a toy or some food, apparently I go a bit cross eyed.

Laughing ISN'T nice, Rumbleparents!

I think I look quite dignified.

Finally, a Rumble Bum - Rumbles

I was hunting mousies in my tunnel, when Rumblemum took these. She has no respect for the fact that I keep her safe from the massive mice, she just laughs and takes photos!

That mousie is gonna get CHEWED!

Gonna get ya!

... now how do I get out of this...?

That brother of mine - there was a slice of something called a 'hawiian pizza' sitting on the table, he grabbed a corner and tried to run away with it! His little face was quite determined, but Rumblemum caught him before he got too far. She swears he has a 'hammy sense' that tingles whenever there is even a tiny scrap of ham to be found...

One of the FOXY wonders of the world

This week I feature a Facebook FOX - the BOOTIFUL Miss Sapphire!

This lovely lady could easily have temples and pyramids built in her honor. In fact I suspect she may out Sphinx the Sphinx!

She's a Sphinx-y Minx!

If you're on Facebook, be sure to 'Like' her page and say hello.

Our qualifications

We've been working super hard all week. Rumblemum has a terrible cold and she's needed lots of tending to.

Fortunately she has two of the BEST man-cats looking after her. She calls us 'Doctor Rumbles and Nurse Kittenloaf' (both names of course inspire confidence in our healing abilities!)

As Doctor, I am required to be within cuddle distance at all times, and ignore any coughing or sneezing. That Hammy Nurse is require to look cute and provide supplementary cuddles.

Here he is trying to look cute on the back of the sofa.

Look at me mummy! I'll heal you!

Gotta pull out the big guns now - see my pink TOES?

He's doing an ok job, of course he learns it from ME!

Grrr!!

Hi to all my Facebook pals - I switched to a public page from a profile, only to discover I couldn't chat with my friends or see their updates as a public page!

HONESTLY Facebook! Would this face ever do
anything wrong?

I've signed up again to a profile (and hopefully they don't delete me) but if you wouldn't mind adding me as a friend again? My profile can be found here

The sweetest music on FOXY Friday - Rumbles

My FOXY pick for today is a lady who is known for her singing ability. This lovely lady puts a song in my heart, and I know she'll do the same for you!

Miss Callie from 'Troublin' Times' takes requests, so stop by her blog and leave a comment of what your favorite song is!!

I'd be your piano mancat any day!!

Peeky Boo Boo - Rumbles

Nothing to see here.

Sub-floofer - Rumbles

There used to be a rule about pussycats on the speakers.

I'M what makes the bass really rumble!

New rule: pussycats must be comfortable when on the speakers.

We're super proud to be featured in an interview on Mousebreath today! Even tho we've never eaten a real mouse, we like to think we have Mousebreath.

It's all in the name - FOXY Friday

This week we feature the lovely Miss Mahoney from Marg's Pets!

The interesting thing with this fetching girl is her name - see, I read it as Ma-Honey (or better still, MYhoney!) Such a sweet girl with a sweet name, who could resist?

Frolicking with the bees, she's such a honey!!

If you don't know Marg, stop by and say hello. Miss Mahoney hasn't been feeling well of late, so please send her some purrs as well.
