Superbowl Sunday 2011

Hey, Everyone!

Just to be clear right off the bat: I'm not watching the Superbowl today. Not even "for the commercials." The title is mainly for me, so that I can retrace my steps and find this entry/day again later in life. haha.

Anyway, look who came to visit today!!

Robert's Mom!

She's doing really well. She looked really healthy and had her winter coat (that's why she's so big/fluffy!). When we came home from grocery shopping, she was hanging out with Robert out on the deck. She still loves her little boy.

In other news, I'm going to be writing two Blog entries/articles a week for WordPress Pro Business. You should check it out! Or, if you're just interested in the articles that I write, those can be found here.

That's about it for this week!

One more picture:
Robert's Mom, Rebel, and Ziggy.

Until next time...

Rebel Rebel

Hey, Everyone!

Just wanted to say that congratulations are in order for Ramiro as well. He's working at the same company I am now:That's the view from my cubical looking into his (there's a window).

Sorry, I didn't mention it before. He was on a "trial" basis at first and I didn't want to announce it until they made him a legit employee... And they did! Yaaaaaaaaaay!! Congrats, Ramiro! :)

Also, a while back I mentioned a "stranger cat." Since then, that same cat has been hanging around a lot. We don't know whether she's a boy or a girl, but we call her(?) "Rebel." Ziggy's Mom had her before getting spayed (another litter of one!). She hangs out with Ziggy's Mom and Robert's Mom. She looks a lot like our Ziggy, but much smaller (she's a lot younger) and she only has half a tail. My best guess is that someone ran over her tail with their car (like she was sleeping under a car and it rolled over her tail). I knew a squirrel as a kid who had their tail run over by a car and it looked very similar to Rebel's.

Anyway, here are some pictures of Rebel that I took this morning:Other than her(?) messed up tail, she's a very beautiful cat. It's a shame she's feral.

When we can, we're going to get a trap from FixNation and take her(?) in to be fixed. Go through that whole rigmarole again... Sigh.

That's about it for now.

Until next time...

Sunday Update

Hey, Everyone!

My revamped website has been getting me a lot of attention! People are finally starting to take me seriously. :) For those of you who haven't seen it yet, you should check it out here: http://littlezotz.webs.com

Also, weird thing, at the beginning of last month, I had nine (9) friends on Facebook--half of which were members of The Click Five--and now, at the beginning of this month, as of this posting, I have one-hundred and fifty (150!) friends on Facebook. What the heck happened?! lol. I'm suddenly popular again!

Yesterday, Martha (Ramiro's mom) gave me keys to the house. I'm not just a house guest anymore. I really officially live here now! Not that I didn't before, but there's something about having keys that makes it seem just so much...more-so...than before.

And now, your cat updates/pictures:
Robert came in with that football a couple weeks ago as a present for Ramiro. When he first showed up with it, it was dark and Ramiro was afraid he was bringing him a rat. We're not sure who Robert stole the football from, but it's definitely his now. He is SO proud of it. He still struts around with it! And, as you can see in the picture, sometimes he sleeps with it. I thought it was very cute that he took his two favourite toys onto the chair before taking his nap.It's been getting cold at night/the early morning lately and Ringo's old and gets cold easily. He's taken to climbing into bed with us. This is the face I've been waking up to (in my face!) the past few mornings.
Ziggy's been enjoying the slightly milder weather. She likes to stay outside and sleep in the front yard's "flower" bed.

The weirdest thing happened to me the other day, involving the cats. We like to let the cats play outside (weather permitting) for a few hours before feeding time and then we let them back in for the night. Anyway, I went to the back door to let in our three cats to be fed; and three cats came in, but they weren't OUR three cats!!! It was one of the most shocking things to ever happen to me in my life. Can you imagine going to feed your pet and having a DIFFERENT pet of the same breed show up in their place? Anyway, the three cats that came running in where Robert's Mom, Ziggy's Mom, and a Stranger Cat. I finally got them out and then OUR three cats came in and ate normally. So. Weird.

Anyway, in closing, please check out my revamped webpage if you haven't already! I'm really proud of it. http://littlezotz.webs.com

Until next time...
