Wordless Wednesday

Mommy likes to buy her kitties in bulk!

Mancat Monday

Iggy here!

We have been MIA for awhile, but Mommy has a couple of posts she'd like to do in the next week or so, so she decided to let us post.

I am doing well and putting on some weight.  I'm a full 10 pounds of happy, healthy Mancat!

My fur is still looking a little unhealthy and I was starting to get a few knots around my neck, so Mommy said I needed to go see the groomer.  I was extremely nervous about that because the last time Bella went to the groomer she came back looking like this!

  

Mommy assured me that she just wanted me to go in for a conditioning and skin treatment, so she packed me up and off we went to the pet place that Mommy loves - Canine and Co. on Sherbrooke St. W. in Montreal.

I was completely unprepared for the fun I had!  These girls treated me like a king and made my fur look luxurious and silky.

A little to the left, please.

I loved being brushed and rubbed.  They thought I was cute too.  I would recommend this place to any cat in Montreal that wants their dry, winter skin treated.  I can't wait to go back and the best part is that now that I'm all soft and fluffy looking, Bella is starting to see what a handsome Mancat I really am.  Samson is going in next week so I hope HE doesn't get any cuter because Bella might start noticing him too!

Eat your hearts out, ladies.

Mancat Monday

Gabriel here!

Wow, it's been a LONG time since I've seen you all!  The Monkeys' Mommy is very bad about blogging, but I insisted I needed to update you all about how things are going at The Monkeys II household (Sweet Pea and I).

As you can see, I'm as handsome as ever.  I take the tuxedo cat look to a whole new level.  It's a combination between a sleek wetsuit and a tux.  Very classy.

How you doin'?

Sweet Pea and I are doing very well together.  Our love story continues...

Sweet Pea: O Gabriel, Gabriel, wherefore art thou Gabriel?  Gabriel: Right here, Pea.  What's your problem?

...even though Daddy says I'm still a little immature and 'kitten aggressive'.   I say she just needs to learn to be a little less dramatic.

Dramatic or not, she's too pretty to ignore.

Sweet Pea and I will be going over to The Monkeys' house for Christmas day.  It's been awhile since we've been there because the last time we went I got very mad and peed on things.  I didn't think that would be such a problem!  Sheesh!  The Monkeys' Mommy is hopeful this time because she brought that weird looking new grey guy here for a visit recently and I didn't pee on anything!

We'll see...it could be a snooze-fest and a little well-placed and well-timed urine might be just the right thing to shake things up and make it interesting.

If we don't get a chance to speak to you before the holidays, we wish a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

Montreal Cats Need Homes

A friend of Mommy's sent her a link to a newspaper article about a man who passed away and left behind his seven beloved cats in need of a home.  The man's family is desperately looking to find wonderful homes for them and so we thought maybe we could help by spreading the word.

These cats are in Montreal, but if you're outside the city, Mommy will definitely help with transport.

Here are their descriptions:

Lars and Sven are 8 year-old brothers. Ideally, these two giant black and white beauties would be adopted together. They’re both extremely friendly and outgoing. Lars has short fur and is a big, fat, cat. Sven has long, luxurious fur and loves being carried around like the furry emperor he thinks he is. Both are fabulous, charming, wonderful, healthy, neutered, accustomed to being brushed (Lars isn’t really TOO keen but Sven is) and have all their shots.

Sven

Lars

Precious (Presh-Presh) is a charming female, neutered, 8 year-old tabby cat. She deserves to be the center of attention and mistress of her own domain and family. She would enjoy being the only four-legged pet in her new home. She’s very sociable and playful, despite having been bullied by the other cats. She likes to observe what’s going on from a high vantage point and loves curling up in a good box or basket. She meows most expressively! She’s the kind of cat who owns her master so an experienced cat owner is preferred. She’s healthy and has all her shots.

Precious

Cirrus. 8. Female, neutered. Cirrus is a bit skittish but inquisitive, and VERY, VERY chatty (with a quiet miaow). She’s friendly once she’s accustomed to you. She’s delightfully good-natured. She gets along with dogs but is indifferent to small children. She loves it when someone brushes her soft, gray long fur. She’s healthy and has all her shots (She’s sister of Voodoo and Mandrake below.)

Voodoo. Female, 8. Neutered. She’s one shade paler than black and LOVES being brushed. She’s such a wonderful! Expressive! Super-friendly cat! She communicates with meaningful and expressive meowing, but not so much as to annoy her human friends. Voodoo needs to be courted to get over her initial, lady-like reserve; once she knows you she’s very friendly and curious about what you’re doing. She’s healthy, glossy, good weight and has all her shots.

Mandrake. Male, 8. Neutered, healthy. Mandrake is a very beautiful, slim black puss with the most gorgeous, silky short fur. He prefers the indoors. Mandrake is very shy, leery of strangers and nervous of unusual activity. He needs a good hidey-hole to which he can retreat when disturbed. He needs a patient, cat-savvy owner who can earn his trust and he’d probably be happier if he were the only cat in the household. He’s had all his shots.

Tristan is 17-years old and needs a very special person – someone who has the love, time and patience for an old and demanding cat.

To see more images – including some movies – of these wonderful cats, please go to: their Flickr page

We will be posting a link to this blog post on our Monkeys Facebook Page.   We would really love it if these beautiful cats could find new homes so please contact us if you are interested or know someone who is.  You can contact us using the 'Contact Me' button in our 'About Me' section at the top of our sidebar, or by leaving a comment with your email.

Thank you, friends, for reading and sharing

Wordless Wednesday - With Iggy

This is how we prepare for Winter in Canada

Squashies

Our sweet friend Squashies will be leaving today and we are so very sad.  Her family could use some purrs if you can drop by her blog.

We will miss you, friend.
