Meet Jessa From Confessions of the Cupcake Countessa and her little man

What is your cat's name?:

 Remington 

Why did you pick that name out?:  

My husband has a thing for names that involve fire arms... =S  Gage, Remington, Colt... you get the idea!

Nicknames: 

 REM, REMI, Remimus-Maximus, Purr Box, and Ham Bone

How you met: 

 My husband use to work for a pest control company and was called out to a job for a "disturbance" in a nearby shed.  When he asked what the problem was she explained that she had kittens residing in their shed.  My husband politely explained that he did not "take care" of kittens but being the sweetheart he is did "take care" by bring home the whole brood!  REM became very comfortable and quickly adopted us as his new family!

Special characteristics (features that make them unique:striped tail, white paws, etc...):  

REM has the most stunning green eyes and beautiful white paws.  His little pink nose is also quite popular with the girls!  He loves giving kisses to all the ladies, especially his Mama! 

Adorable things they love to do (loves catnip, hides in dryer, etc...): 

 He is absolutely smitten with my husband!  He will literally follow him around until he sits just so he can lounge around lazily on his lap.  He also loves his belly scratched and photobombing any and every camera he stumbles upon!  Thus the nickname Ham Bone!


And anything else you would like to include: 

 REM is like our baby... he drives us crazy, worries us to death, but we cannot imagine our life without him.  We are so blessed to have found him and so grateful that he has adopted us into his lives!

Meowsday C.9

Ha! You guys thought I had forgotten about our dear old kitty feature. Nope, I just been fighting an awful cold, going to school, and working like a mule. So, sorry for the late post on this fine, rainy, Monday. Enjoy!

Introducing today, Mrs. Susannah from Susannahbean and her little Mr.

What is your cat's name?:

My cat's name is Mr. Earl Marshall Littlejeans. 

Why did you pick that name out?:

When my boyfriend and I adopted him, his name was O'Malley. We weren't huge fans of that name, so I picked Earl (because he's gray, so like Earl Grey Tea!). One day we were watching the movie Rushmore, and at the very end there's a line where they say, "What did you think, Mr. Littlejeans?", and my boyfriend repeated it to the cat. It just sort of stuck, and we ended up giving him a middle name just because :)

Nicknames:
We call him Jeans more than anything, but I also call him Jeansy, buddy, little guppy, and about a hundred other random things!

How you met:
We adopted Jeans from the local humane society in September 2008. I went to the shelter by myself first, and I really had my heart set on getting a little orange kitten. There weren't any, and I was about to leave, when I saw this little gray dude in the corner. He was so pretty, I asked if I could see him and they let me take him in the little play room. He totally won me over, he climbed behind my neck and nibbled on my earrings and played like a champ. I brought my boyfriend to meet him the next day, and he loved him, so we brought him home!

Special characteristics (features that make them unique:striped tail, white paws, etc...):

Jeans has a really pretty blue/gray coat, which makes some people assume he's a Russian Blue. I've read up on it, and it is possible for regular domestic cats to have that distinct coat color, so he's probably not a Russian Blue, but he's just as pretty :) He has very bright green eyes, and a whole "vocabulary" of meows. 

adorable thinngs they love to do (loves catnip, hides in dryer, etc...):

Jeans plays more like a puppy than a cat! We play fetch and he loves catnip. 

And anything else you would like to include:

I know it sounds silly, but Jeans wears pajamas at night! Without pj's, he's up all night biting our toes, knocking stuff down, and pawing at the wall. We found out that if we put a t-shirt on him, he goes to sleep right away and sleeps all night. It's odd, but it works for us!

Isn't He a cutie!? If you would like to be feature on the next Meowsday, click here.

Meet Lisa Berg from  Lala Faux Bois and her little girl:

What is your cat's name? 

Piper

Why did you pick that name out?:  

She is named after the Piper Warrior airplane that I earned my pilot's license in.  

Nicknames:
She has lots of nicknames and we call her Little Kitty (her brother is Big Kitty) more than anything.  

We call her Smooch and Pepita a lot too :)

How you met:
A friend of a friend hadn't fixed their cat (Shame! Shame!) and they had a litter they were trying to adopt out.  We say she picked us because she was the only one of the litter that didn't run and hide when we came over.  She was 2 lbs and the tiniest thing ever!

Special characteristics:

She is a calico and part of her lips are black! (You can't see that in the pictures)

adorable thinngs they love to do (loves catnip, hides in dryer, etc...):

She LOVES to sleep and cuddle and always tries to lure us to bed for a nap.  She will lay on anything you set down- books, laptop, wet clothes lying out to dry, etc.  Whenever I'm doing yoga, she will lay on her back looking up at me and I have to stop my pose to rub her fluffy belly :)

And anything else you would like to include:

One weird trait- if anyone coughs or sneezes she will meow.  Even if she's sleeping she does a little tired meow!

Meowsday C.7: Special Feature

   As a fellow Cat lady, I am honored to feature Miss Tiffany Mamone and her two cats. Although, I've never met this lovely lady in person, I followed her on Twitter, Tumblr, and Instagram and there isn't a day when I don't see an adorable picture of her and her cats. She is a Star Wars enthusiastic with a punk Rock soul and her style is wicked. Some of her many Tattoos include two portraits of her cats which were featured in the NY Post last year.

So have a nice Valentines Week and do fall in love with Miss Mamone and her cats: 

What are your cat's name?:

I have two cats, Victor Murder and Emily Disaster.

Why did you pick those names out?:

 Tim Burton's  The Corpse Bride  first names, punk rock last names. 

Nicknames:

Vicky, Vic, Jelly Belly, Buba /  Em, Emmy, Em-bot, Baby Girl

How you met: 

My fiance and I rescued them at 5 weeks old from a crack house in Philly. 

Special characteristics: 

Victor is a beautiful idiot. He could totally be a model but he'd too damn dumb. He is an orange cat but depending on how he feels, sometimes he turns almost white. Its pretty nutty. 

Emily has crazy markings. When she was a baby she was gray with faint white stripes and snow white feet.  The older she got the more orange started to show. Now, it looks like she traded one of her back legs with a orange striped cat. 

Adorable things they love to do: 

My cats are totally insane, in totally opposite ways! Like I said, Victor is a beautiful idiot, I swear his brain is the size of an apple seed. But this is what makes him adorable. He likes to scream and do back flips off the wall then scatter away and hide under the bed.  I have no words to explain this but its very entertaining. Emily is obsessed with yogurt and whenever I am eating it she will attack me with cuteness and cuddles in hopes that I feed her yogurt.  She also likes to get in the shower.  

And anything else you would like to include:

I don't believe in declawing my cats, so I buy nail caps called soft paws. They come in all different colors, like pink, purple and glitter. They are easy to use and don't hurt one bit! :D 

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥ ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

 Did they steal your hearts? I knew they would!

♥ Happy Valentines ladies ♥

Meowsday C.6

Meet the lovely Sarah from The Purr Diaries and her two cats:

What are your cat's name?:

Bosco who is 6 years old and Oliver who is almost 1

Why did you pick that name out?:

Bosco is named after a song called 'Hey Bosco' by my favourite Australian band Jebediah, and Oliver is named after a wonderful cat I had as a child who never came home one day :o(

Nicknames:

Bosco: Bos, Bossy Boots, Boscorelli

Oliver: Ollie, Wally, Tiny, Pumpkin Pie

How you met:

Bosco was adopted at 6 weeks old from a friend of a friends whose cat had had kittens and desperately needed homes for them. And Oliver was rescued from the RSPCA last June. I try to support shelters and shelter cats as much as I can - I sell art in my Etsy store and donate proceeds to CatProtection Society and I volunteer at the RSPCA's Cat Legacy House.

Special characteristics (features that make them unique:striped tail, white paws, etc...):

Bosco and Oliver look quite similar which was unintentional! We were hoping to get a black or ginger kitten when adopting Oliver but he chose us so we didn't have a choice! They are both tabby and white - Bosco brown tabby and Oliver gray tabby. Two very special characteristics are that neither of them are normal sized cats! Bosco is very big (but not at all overweight!) at 7kgs and Oliver is tiny for his age at only 4kgs!

Adorable things they love to do (loves catnip, hides in dryer, etc...):

Bosco loves playing chase! It has been his thing since he was little! He also refuses to drink out of a cat bowl! Or any bowl for that matter. He will only ever drink out of a freshly poured glass! I also mix a little bit of water in with his wet food to make sure he always gets enough.

Oliver is still a kitten so is a bundle of fun! He loves catnip, loves the laser pointer (a little too much - he gets over excited so we have to limit it!) and sleeps in bed with me every night. He is also very vocal and follows me around the house. He is always in the same room I'm in.

And anything else you would like to include:

To hear more about my two boys come on over to The PurrDiaries! We also have a Facebook page! 

My cats are so inspiring to me so they are always the focus of my art. You can see Bosco and Oliver inspired art in my Etsy store and I also have a new Facebook page for that too  :o)

I LOVE CATS!!!

♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥♥

How cute are they? I know I will be visiting her Etsy real soon! 

Plus, if you are on Instagram, you can always be delighted by her pictures, Follow her @purrdiaries

Meowsday C.5

 Meet Coralene from Fawn & Flower and her manly man: 

What is your cat's name?:
Charles Bukowski

Why did you pick that name out?:
He's named after one of my favorite authors. My cat is a total dude. He
prefers whiskey and women to yarn balls and catnip.

Nicknames:
Hank (obviously), Mr. B, Charles, Chuckles, Mr. Mister, Puttertaps,
Meowmats, Pitterpaws, Pitterpats etc.

How you met:
When I was pregnant with my second daughter, I had like... one friend. All
of my other friends just went to bars every night and got wasted, and I sat
at home by myself, bored, lonely, and manatee-sized. I got tired of hearing
"we should do something tomorrow!" and then have plans that I actually
bothered getting excited for fall through because everyone was always too
hungover. Anyways, I had one good friend (who NEVER did that to me),
Chelsey, who randomly called me one day and asked if I wanted a kitten. The
perfect cure for loneliness! Her friend's brother had found it in his mom's
WALLS... some stray mama kitty had kittens back there and abandoned them. I
took Mr. B in and he's been my favorite little dreamcat ever since.

Special characteristics (features that make them unique:striped tail, white
paws, etc...):
When he was a baby he had a tiger tummy. Now he is easily spotted by his
mammoth proportions. He is quite impressive in frame. I should maybe feed
him less.

Adorable things they love to do (loves catnip, hides in dryer, etc...):
He hugs. How presh is that?? Like he puts his arms around my neck and his
little cat face on my shoulder like he's actually hugging me. I DIE. He
also does a lot of totally super gross things that only a mother (a.k.a.
ME) could love... like biting and scratching and slobbering. I know it's
gross but I love his cat slobbers and I think it's cute when he bites me.
He also becomes enraged and embarrassed when I dress him up, so if he's
especially naughty I make him wear one of his outfits. I've always thought
it was endearing but to you it may sound like cat abuse... either way he
looks slammin' in his Pilgrim gear.

And anything else you would like to include:

I have cat whiskers tattooed on one of my fingers so I can play cat face

games with him. He's also tattooed on my arm... dressed as a clown :) My

fancy dress-up boy!
