Happy 2026, January Badges and Jokes with Precious

 I can't believe another year has come and gone! 2025 went by so furry quickly! Much like the world, things have changed here in  the middle of nowhere too! Something have been incredibly wonderful and something have been incredibly sad, but we are grateful that we areall happy and healthy! Onto the Badges!

 

 We are also so glad to be back with you this year! We are over the moon that Mr Terry is keeping our favorite space on the interwebs going! Yeah! 

Now Onto January!

This month Nutmeg is taking on learning how to be the best dogthat she can be!

And she is all about the WALKS! Mom still takes her out with the "rolls" when Alex is out of town (right now he is surviving the brutal cold and snow in Edmonton, AB). In the snow that can be difficult as the "rolls" has no treads and no suspension...but Mom does have spikes that she can put on the bottom of her boots. When it snows, Nutmeg does not get the 3-4 kms a day that she is accustomed too. Nutmeg has scheduled her walks for 7:15 am, 11:00 am and 3:30 pm - EVERYDAY! Mom is ever so happy when Alex is home!

And our Badge for the First Day of the Year!

  We hope you are having an EXCELLENT New Year's Day! Mom's friend Mary will be over again today and Mom and her are going to Binge watch the Reacher TV show! We are are looking forward to the treats and skritches! (Mary is the best skritcher EVER)!

Quote from Susan Easterly

A Continuation from the Jokefest Yesterday...

What!?! You think you can do better Jo Jo?

She said YES!

And she called up her bestest furrend Precious on Zoom. We have been purraying for Precious and her 2 days at the hospital and we are glad to hear that she is A-OK!

Funny, the jokes I've heard about Zoom aren't remotely funny...

I ran and got Kozmo - then they told another joke!

Then they watched the sheep!!!

Kozmo and I were shocked (NOT about the sheep doing Zoom-Baa) that Precious and Jo Jo were so funny!

What do you guys think?

 

New Years Eve in Vegas! And Selfies!

 Wow! Kozmo went all out for New Years! He took Katie Isabella to Las Vegas! 

I did NOT KNOW that the Tunnel PTUs had a node in the MGM Grand!

It looks like they had a great time! Koz texted me pictures! Of them in their room, of them at David Copperfield's show (he is a resident at the MGM Grand) 

and they saw the Blue Man Group!

I thought they looked a little scary, but Kozmo said they LOVED Katie Isabella and they were super nice to them. They even took Kozmo and Katie to the New Years fireworks show so they would not be scared by the noise.

Kozmo even had a super duper photo portrait made of Katie Isabella! Is she not gorgeous!

It is terrific! She looks like the Queen she is! We are using it as the selfie on our Blog this week.

We hope you all had a wonderful New Year's Eve and we wish you lots of love and warmth. We are sending all of you best wishes on New Years dear furrends. May you and your Peeps have an amazing New Year. Purrs, Marv, Jo Jo, Kozmo, Cinnamon and Barb.

We are pawticipating in the Selfie Blog Hop hosted by the the Kitties Blue and their Peeps at the Cat on my Head! Please click their button to be magically taken to their Blog.

Happy New Year and Caturday Art!

 Kozmo and Ms Katie (Katie Isabella) are ready to go out and trip the light fantastic. 

They kindly let me take their picture (BUT they would NOT tell me where they were going)!

I have turned it into a lovely piece of ART for New Years (CATERDAY).

 We KNOW they will ring in the New Year having a blast! At home, Jo Jo, Cinnamon, Mom and Me (and Alex) are taking it easy, watching some movies on TV and trying to stay warm (it is still a deep freeze here -22c (-8 f). Mom says we will probably be in bed before the ball drops, but I am going to stay up and find out what kind of fun Kozmo and Katie had! 

On this New Year's Caturday, We are also pawticipating at Athena & Marie's Artsy Caturday. Please click on their button to be taken to Caturday Art Central! From there you can go and see more of Marie's terrific art of Athena!

Happy New Year!

 Happy New Year!

We had the most fabulishous New Years Eve...After 2 days of constant snow (about 8 inches or 20 cm) we had SUN! As it does not often get really cold, here, with the sun it actually above freezing. The river froze right after Christmas because it stayed below freezing for a few days.  We can hear the ice cracking! If the sun stays out, the river will open up again in the next couple of days.

Mom and Alex has to shovel first thing in the morning or it is like shovelling Dairy Queen Ice Cream and is really heavy!

Because we got so much snow, Alex shovels paths for us cats!

Now for the glamor sun shots!

Jo Jo in the cat tree in the living room bay window. She was watching the birds eat berries off the Mountain Ash trees.

Here is Marv sitting on the back deck. He is watching the cat that lives across the river.

Cinnamon is laying in the snow...waiting for someone to throw her ball!

And Me, Kozmo, telling Mom my answers to the Friendly Fill-ins for New Years!

1. My focus word for 2021 is Patience, even though things are better, it will take a while for the world to get back to normal.

2. I didn’t get to talk on the Blog much this year, but I hope to in 2021.

3. The year 2020 taught me Marv is really fast! Especially when he's mad at me!

4. Learn self defence is one of my biggest goals for 2021. I am a gentle giant and Jo Jo, Marv and Cinnamon push me around.

 

 And at Comedy Plus - Feline Friday!

 

Happy New Year!

Last Thankful of 2020

 Dear furrends,

We are so furry thankful to have such wonderful furrends all over the world.

 

We are thankful for Brian and his family! They do so much for the Cat Blogosphere and for cats who need help. One of my favorites is to hear about their outside furrends who think his backdoor is their restaurant! We are thankful that they sponsor the Thankful Thursday blog hop where we can give thanks and gratitude! 

 

We are especially thankful that this is New Years Eve and that 2020 will now be behind us!
