Weekend Cat Blogging #110

Welcome to this week's Weekend Cat Blogging!

In honour of my upcoming first birthday, on July 18th, I have cake for the humans, tuna and salmon for the cats, and vanilla ice cream for both!

To add your link to the round up, you can leave a comment here. Thanks!

(I'll be slowly adding the links I've already received over the course of the weekend. Both of my humans did long runs already this weekend, and so they are both tired and moving rather slowly. My dad is training for the Munich Marathon (42.2 km/26.2 miles) and my mom is training for a 30 km race.)

Frootbat Friday & Awards

This is my last Frootbat Friday as a kitten, although I still feel like a kitten. I love to romp and play and have lots of fun.

My dear friends Princess and Caesar presented me with the Blogging Community Involvement Award. Thank you very much Caesar and Prinnie! I am honoured!

So what is "the power of schmooze?"

“As it goes, schmoozing is the natural ability 'to converse casually, especially in order to gain an advantage or make a social connection.' Good schmoozers effortlessly weave their way in and out of the blogosphere, leaving friendly trails and smiles, happily making new friends along the way. They don’t limit their visits to only the rich and successful, but spend some time to say hello to new blogs as well. They are the ones who engage others in meaningful conversations, refusing to let it end at a mere hello - all the while fostering a sense of closeness and friendship."

Each recipient is to post the badge on their site with a link to their post and bestow the award upon five other bloggers. There are so many wonderful bloggers out there, that this is a hard decision to make. Here are my choices:

• Kattonic Cats: Zippy, Sadie and Speedy: They are three wonderful cats who are always visiting other blogs and leaving nice comments.
• Miss Peach: Miss Peach is a real lady and always has a kind and caring message for those she visits.
• Kaze: A fellow Frootbat, Kaze always has a kind word for others. She's also the only cat I know who likes playing even more than I do!

I was also presented with the Caring Cat Blogger Award! This award is for cats who demonstrate caring and compassion for others. I am very touched and honoured to receive this award.

I would like to present this award in turn to Caesar and Princess. These two Cornish Rex kitties are very kind and caring, and always have something thoughtful to say. They are wonderful friends and their posts and comments are always a delight to read. Although they are both dealing with CRF, they are still positive cats, with a wonderful outlook on life. I am very honoured to have them as friends.

Finally, don't forget that Weekend Cat Blogging is here this weekend! Check out my Weekend Cat Blogging post and add your link to the round-up! Thanks!

Weekend Cat Blogging

I am excited to be hosting Weekend Cat Blogging this week, especially since my first birthday is next Wednesday!

I have lots of catnip, feather-tailed mousies, and yummy salmon for everyone, so join in!

If you want to take part in Weekend Cat Blogging, here's how it works: Leave a link to your site here in the comments section, and a a short description of your post, if you'd like. Also, a link back to my blog, mentioning this weekend's Weekend Cat Blogging would be appreciated, but is not absolutely necessary.

I'm looking forward to reading all your posts!

Check out this week's Weekend Cat Blogging Round Up! You can find this week's WCB here.

Sleepy Sunday

Here I am, snoozing away, curled up on my soft, blue fleece blanket. If you click the close up of my face, you can really see the tiny bits of fur on my nose and my ears and you can just make out a couple of my very short, curly whiskers.

My humans are back from Madrid tomorrow night, and I can't wait! The cat sitter is nice, and takes good care of me, but it's not the same as having my mom and dad here. You are all invited to come over for some catnip, tent wars, wrestling and cuddling, until they are back.
