Kitties!
It's Meezer Monday and I have a HUGE announcement to make!
This is our One Hundred & Oneth post!
May Ling, shouting the news!
Yup, it's true!
And it's all because of this guy...
Felix!
There is (of course) a story behind our blog.
About two years ago, Mommy (and us!) discovered Skeezix's blog when she Googled "kitten diaries", and found the Cat Blogosphere shortly thereafter...like in about ten minutes.
We were all enthralled.
We read, and read, and read, and a great once and a while, we'd comment.
We got to know all of you, and even though we were just lurkers, we were DAILY lurkers.
We were interested in all of your lives, your ups & downs.
Reading your blogs made us happy.
And then, something terrible happened.
Felix hurt himself, badly. He tore up his knee and his patella luxated.
Mommy and Daddy and all of us were worried he might not heal right, or worse yet, he'd be in pain for the rest of his life.
But we had a resource...Maggie May from The Creek Cats! Her patella had luxated too!
So Mommy emailed Maggie May's Mom and asked her for advice. And Maggie May's Mom wrote back within a few minutes! And then Mommy emailed a picture of Felix, and Maggie May featured him on her blog and asked for the Cat Blogosphere to purr for him. And TONS of kitties did!
Maggie May's Mom also said that OUR Mommy should start a blog.
That was all it took.
We sat Mommy down and said: "We wanna blog!"
And what We want, We get!
So Mommy DID it! She figured out how to blog! Boy, she was afraid it would be a flop, or she would mess it up, or...well, you know how People fret.
And we discovered we LOVE blogging! One of the things we enjoy the most is reading and writing comments.Sweet Pea, thinking of a witty remark!
And we LOVE all the friends we've made. Y'all have made us feel so welcome!

And given Mommy a fun creative outlet. (She needs to be kept busy.)
Best of all, Felix's knee healed and he's back to his crazy antics and everyday crankiness.
Hurrah!
So Kitties, here's to the next One Hundred (and more) posts!

ReplyDeleteWe also love blogging and came across the Cat Blogosphere by accident one day and we're very glad we did.
Congratulations on your 101th post! We found the CB back in December/January, again by accident, even though our human had been blogging for a while before that, and had various personal web sites prior to the blogs.
ReplyDeleteIt's been fun! We're glad to get to know all of YOU!
We love Maggie May's Mom too! She's a wonderful cat mom and we're so happy she convinced you all to start a blog! Congratulations on your 101th post!
ReplyDeleteHappy 101 blogs...now blogging is as simple as eating breakfast right? We are so glad you found your way into blogsville. Creek Cats are the best...and right here in NC with us!!
ReplyDeleteMom kind of started blogging the same way...as a lurker. HA She found Dog Daze. Ms. K at Dog Daze was a great inspiration to us...kept encouraging us to blog too. We are so glad we took that giant leap of faith.
Madi and Mom
Concats on #101...and on to infinity. Oh wait, dat's to infinity and beyond. We is glad we met alla yoo too. Now, if we could just manage to really get to hang out on yoor catio life would be purrfect.
ReplyDeleteKUDOS!!!!!!!!!!! We are sad that Felix had to go through what he did, but it's true that every cloud has a silver lining.....it was the cloud that got y'all to the blogging stage and thankfully Felix is ok now.
ReplyDeleteWe love your blog and we look forward to thousands more posts from y'all. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx
Mum had been a lurker when she had Emma who was 19 years old and didn't do anything but much eat and sleep. When she went to the bridge mum took us both in as rescue cats and we started to blog with some good help by Eric and Flynn's mum. We love it too. We are glad we found your blog as you do such interesting things. Congrats on your 101st post.
ReplyDeleteWoo Hoo! Congrats on post 101! Love the story of how it all began. Skeezix was one of our early inspirations and so was Daisy the Curly Cat. Here's to hundreds of more blog posts!

ReplyDeleteWhat a great story of how you got started! I am amazed at the CB community and how generous and welcoming everyone is. I was a lurker too before I got off to my slow and shaky blogging start and if it weren't for the the kindness of Huffle I wouldn't have met anyone.
ReplyDeleteCongratulations on your 101th post. I love reading about the adventures of the Lounge kitties and I look forward to hundreds more posts. I'm so happy Felix is well again!!!
That is so great how you got started. The Creek Cats are the bestest. We are good friends with them too. They helped us a lot with the feral kitties here just by supporting us. We are very excited that you started blogging because we really enjoy your blog a bunch. The CB community is the best too. They are so supportive also. So congrats on the 101 post. We do love reading all about all the characters that live there. Kind of like our house. Anyway, have a great week.

ReplyDeletefraidy cats Pip, Smidge, Minnie
Big concats on your 101th post! You know we remember Maggie May talking about you and I know we purred for you...but it's only now that my mom is putting it all together!!! Ha! We blogged for a whole month before we found the CB...and it was the Creek Cats and Gandalf &Grayson that introduced us!
ReplyDeletePurrs to you all!
xoxo Cory and family
Concatulations on your 101st!
ReplyDeleteThe Baby is still my heart-throb, though Salem's juicy little legs & tum-tum look good enough to eat!
I'm sure Scouty would never think such mean thoughts about your Human, though. (Unless the thoughts included stew pots), which by the way, **I** am fretting about now.
Woohoo! Concatulations on 101!
ReplyDeleteWe are so glad your Mom discovered blogging because otherwise we wouldn't have you as our friends. We love reading about what you are all up to. Winston x
What a great story! We are friends with the Creek Cats, too. We love your blog and are so glad that you talked your mom into blogging so we can come visit you!
