Meow Like a Pirate Day

Ahoy mateys!!! Welcome aboard the decks of the much feared Black Furrball. Ahoy the Cat O'Nine Tails and her fearsome crew!!! Captain Jack and crew are almost ready to depart to our port of call for this year - the mystical Isle of Baast - a kitty paradise that cannot be found on a map but instead can only be found by those who know where it is. Good for us, Captain Jack knows where it is. As we get ready to make way, please feel free to wander the decks and help yourself to the treats and noms that our pirate wench (Mommy) has placed out for us -including all kinds of seafood and even HAMM!! To the left you will find Fagin with lots of fishing poles and nets for those who wish to fish. There be hammocks for napping, and lots of pirate catnip rum for sipping.

In order to get to the Isle of Baast our first stop is the infamous Bermuda Triangle. The Bermuda Triangle, also known as the Devil's Triangle, is a region in the western part of the North Atlantic Ocean in which a number of aircraft and surface vessels are alleged to have mysteriously disappeared and cannot be explained as human error, piracy, equipment failure, or natural disasters. Popular culture has attributed some of these disappearances to the paranormal, a suspension of the laws of physics, or activity by extraterrestrial beings. But we know the truth kitties- the Bermuda Triangle is nothing more than one big teleyport machine - one of the few enterances to the Isle of Baast. Let's go!!

Be not afraid kitties, the Captain and crew have made this trip numerous times. Captain Jack will see us through. We will arrive momentarily.......

And here we are, at the Isle of Baast - the paradise island for kitties of all sizes, colors and meows.AH!!! The Isle of Baast!! There be beaches for sun and fun, plenty of seafood and noms and goodies, and even natives to see to our every need. Enjoy yourselves kitties and now, join in us in our call - Meow Like a Pirate - ME-ARGHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!

Mommy Update Monday

Hey kitties! Someone of you and your beans have asked how our Mommy and little Cabin Boy are doing, so we thought we would use this Monday to tell you all about it. First of all, Mommy has gotten big and fat! We are not kidding, she has! Just look!!

Mommy took this picture of herself last weekend for our Aunt Adri who asked her how big she is. She says she was 27 weeks pregnant here so that means she has 13 more weeks (less than 12 now) to get even bigger! We wonder how Mommy will fit out the door soon - she is bigger than our house!!

On a serious note, we have been doing a good job of keeping Mommy's blood pressures down and of making sure she gets plenty of rest. Her blood pressures are still borderline high, but the doctor thinks all will be well there. Unfortunately, right when we get this fixed, something else pops up. Mommy had to have a test a little over a week ago to make sure the sugars in her bloods are okay - well, she failed that test. Flunked it bad. This means that tommorow she has to go to a LAB place for three whole long, boring, hours to have another sugar in bloods test run. They is going to steal her bloods FOUR TIMES kitties! Its bad!! If she fails it, no more ice cream for us!! Can you believe it?? We really really hope she passes this test! Maybe we should help her study for it. What do you kitties think?

Finally, we just wanted to tell you - all of our bestest kitty, woofie and bean friends, thank you so much for all of your love and support. Mommy says that it has been a challenging time growing the Cabin Boy in her tummy, but it will all be worth it when he gets here. Thank you again. We really appreciate it and are truly touched by the outpouring of purrs, purrayers and love!
