Fankful Friday Fourteen

SAMMY
Our wonderful friend Karl gave us this award! We are so thrilled! Thank you so much!

This award was created by Mel at Monday Morning Power. Here is his description of the award:"I have always wanted to create and give out my own award. So after much thought I have decided to create the "WINNING ATTITUDE AWARD." This award seems like a natural given what my site is all about. This award is based on positive thinking and is meant for those blogs who base their existence, in part or in whole, on Positive Winning Attitudes."

Since so much has been happening this week here, we will award this to other kitties over the weekend.

Friday Fourteen
Fourteen Things About Baby Bill:

1. Mommy finded him in the parking lot of the grocery store, and he hollered at her and she told him to come to her and he did.
2 . He has never hissed at Mommy
3. He didn't hiss at the v-e-t
4. He has a horrible infection on his neck that keeps draining
5. His eye will never heal. He has a scratch on his cornea from either herpes when he was a little baby or a fight, but he does have a little sight in that eye and normal sight in his other eye.
6. Mommy says he has probably never been inside - she had to show him how to eat out of a bowl by pushing his nose into his food. but he learned fast.
7. He keeps dumping his water dish, so mommy gives him kitten milk replacement so that he won't dehydrate
8. Miles has not hissed at him.
9. I am very GRRY and HISSY with him
10. he's very STINKY.
11. Mommy had to show him how to use the litter box. She putted OUR poop in his box and he went in right away and did his business.
12. he does holler alot - he could be an honorary ginger meezer
13. He will haf his hoo-ha-ectomy as soon as he gets his vaccinations. He can't haf them until his infection in his neck goes away
14. He purrrrss ALL THE TIME. Maybe he's Grampa Norton come back to us. Grampa Norton purred every day of his life all day unless he was sick. That's how mommy and daddy knowed he was sick. Baby Bill looks like Grampa Norton so maybe he has come back to us!

Join CAT IDOL!!! Think of it like American Idol but with cats. Everyday a cat WILL get eliminated based on the fans votes. Since it is American Idol season I say we try it. Since with the new style it will not matter the number of cat pictures I will need. So feel free to join! Just remember to take a picture of your cat with your thumb showing in the picture (this is done to prove that it is really your cat). Send the picture to admin@wozog.com. The winner gets 32 bucks, but most importantly will go on the WOZOG hall of fame with their picture! I have gotten many pictures after this tournament started so there will be more competition. But it will be FUN!!! www.wozog.com

Sammy, I just found out about Baby Bill! He sure is a cute little ginger boy. My Lap Lady actually found me in her office parking lot when I was also about 6 months old and my dad said that I was very stinky too. Well, that was 10 1/2 years ago and now I'm not stinky. I'm happy that Bill found your mom in that parking lot.

Also, congratulations on your Winning Attitude Award - it's a great one for you guys!

Purrrrrrrs, China Cat

Yes! It's Grandpa Norton. All of our loved ones come back to us some way.

Kinda a bummer though, that Grandpa Norton, aka Bill, has to go through a second hoo-ha-ectomy just to be with family.

Luv,

Skittles, The Huntress

Renee Nefe said...

I though that the timing that baby bill coming into your lives just as your mommy gets a new job was kinda perfect. And I do think that Grandpa Norton had a lot to do with it...he told Bill that you were ready for him now.

Sammy, I'm sure you're just hissy with everyone. ;o)

Thanks Sammy for all that new information on little Bill. We hope his infections heal quickly. Mom's had Pekes with serious eye injurires before, the eye is an amazing thing. We're hoping for the best for Bill's eye! At least he's finally found his home, he's not not alone anymore and he's all warm and fed! Lots of purrs and snuggles Bill!

Parker said...

Bill sounds like a very smart kitty. He sure is cute and I hope he keeps on purring and purring and purring!
Concats on your award!

Tiki, Kirby, and StanLee said...

Purring is good. Dante has a squinty eye too and it doesn't seem to slow him down any, so Bill should be fine. Tiki was stinky too when she was little, (Hey!!!) but she got over it. Maybe Sammy will like him better when he smells better.

LZ said...

Well I'm very happy for all of you with little Bill. It does seem like maybe Grampa Norton sent him your way.

The Furry Kids said...

Hmmm, it seems like Grampa Norton had something to do with this. :) Thank you for telling us about Bill. We are purraying for a speedy recovery for him.

Dragonheart, Merlin, Devi, and Chloe said...

How wonderful that your mom rescued Baby Bill. Poor little guy with the damaged eye. :( It sounds like he's had a rough early life. We are glad your mom rescued him!

That is so cool that he purrs all the time. Merlin purrs all the time too. Maybe he is Grampa Norton come back to you!

zevo hussein calamari said...

Java's Coffee House said...

Concatulations on your new brofher be nice to him and give him lots of loves cause he's had a rough times so far. I'm sure you can teach him alot about whapping.

Gattina said...

Poor little Baby Bill, so young and so sad souvenirs. How lucky he is now to have found a forever home !

Jimmy Joe said...

Aw, poor li'l tyke. He probably won't stink so bad once his tummy gets used to non-dumpster food. I'm glad your Grandpa Norton sent you a new ginger brother!
Your buddy, Jimmy Joe

Hot(M)BC said...

Aw, yoo's so nice not to hissy at lil Bill. If he's not Grampa Norton come back, I bets he was sented by Grampa Norton. He won't stink so much after he heels up n his tummy 'justs. Sounds like he needs a water bowl thatcha can't dump eezy. Woofie water bowls are hardta dump -- that's why we's got one of them. hehehe
Purrrrrrrrrs n nosekissies,
yore girlfriendcat Sanjee

The Crew said...

Congrats on your new award. It's well deserved!

Bill may be stinky 'cause of what he was eating and because he's sick. Once he's better that will probably go away.

Best wishes to the new little guy!

The Tower Hill Mob said...

Congratulations on the award! You guys are the greatest!
We all loved reading about Bill. Mum's eyes got a little leaky when she read about him. We all DEFINITELY think Grandpa Norton sent him.
He's going to be a great addition to the family.

Gemini and Ichiro said...

Congrats on your award. You know, we did think of Norton when we first saw him... hmm?

Fat Eric said...

Yay! congratulations on your award. Yes I think Grampa Norton definitely sent Bill to you. You can't keep us gingers away for long...heh heh. Maybe Norton could be his middle name?
Keep us updated, I am glad Miles is not hissing at him. Er...hope the stinkiness dies down soon...

Shaggy and Scout said...

OH my Gosh! How did we manage to miss this news!!!!!
Thank you MeezerMom for rescuing this poor little waif!

Angel Junior, Orion and Sammy said...

Miles and Sammy,

You be good to little Bill. He has had a rough start and deserves the best...just like you two!

I told Meowm to go get some things for Bill and she did so she will be putting those in the mail tomorrow!

Daisy said...

It is so amazing that little Bill is so sweet and friendly after the rough start he had in life. I am almost certain that baby Bill is Grampa Norton come back to you!

HRH Yao-Lin said...

I hate to say it but I think Bill is adorable and I think your human has done a very wonderful thing by taking him in. cx

Victor Tabbycat said...

Oh, wow! Wow oh wow! When I saw Bill, I thot of Norton, too. He's got sum growin to do, but in a little while, he'll be playin Thunderin Herd of Elefants wif the rest of us.

I hope mine mom don't get any idears bout homeless kitties. She's MINE.

PB 'n J said...

Cool - a ginger Meezer! We hope he heals up well and soon!

Mommy and Daddy say that Pearl is a little reincarnation of the original "P" kittty (Purdy) - so kitty reincarnation does happy, maybe he is Grampa Norton!

Unknown said...

Oh, baby Bill is so lucky that he found you! He is adorable! I think he must be Grampa Norton come back to you. I hope Bill's owies heal up fast, I will purray for him.

Anonymous said...

Funny how these things work out. Could it be Grampa Norton has been reincarnated? Anyway, your human deserves great thanks for helping a little one who needed so much help.

While I'm here, I’d like to tag you for the meme "Message in a Bottle."

Big congratulations to you on your award and to your mom, we all think its awesome that little Bill is so well cared for. He reminds the servants of a kitten they accidentally found in a swamp off the highway, they had pulled over and heard some meows and there was a little skinny orange guy (later named Achilles for his will to survive). He was full of fleas and was obviously starved. My humans got him treatment and vaccination and the male servant even slept all night on the washroom floor with him so he wouldn't be alone. They then found Achilles a home with a family friend who had just retired and wanted feline company. I hope Bill grows up to be just as meezerly as his new siblings, he has the voice already afterall!

Purrrs, Tamra

Mark's Mews (Marley, Lori, Loki, and Binq) said...

Zoey and the furballs said...

That's a perfect award for you all. We're so happy about the job and so happy about Bill finding such good people to take care of him. You are very lucky meezers, even if you don't think it yourself.

Unknown said...

Oh, Sammy and Miles!!!! Mom and I just found out about precious baby Bill -- how wonderful that you and your Mom and Dad are caring for him. He is just adorable.

He is so lucky to have met your family -- I hope his infection gets better very soon. What a sweet little purry furry boy.

And how precious, thinking that he could be Grandpa Norton come back to you. Perhaps he is. *smile*

Purrs and snuggles

Hi Sammy and Miles.
I just found out about little cutie pie Billkins.
Well, you two boys will have a very good week-end helping taking care of this adorrrrable little guy. He is so gosh golly cute.

The Cat Realm said...

We are sure it is Grandpa Norton! That's why Bill hollered at your Mom!
We are so sorry about his rough start in life but he has found the best forever home he possibly could!
When the butler found me in the parking lot I did not know what a cat bed was! I did not know how to use a litter box (and I still don't use it - even if I know how to know) but you bill seem to be one smart kitten!
Bill, we hope your infection will heal soon and that you do not have pain in your eye?
Welcome to the family!
Karl

Chrissie said...

Sammy, it's a bit hard of you to be talkin' about the little guy gettin' his kiwis whacked when he's teeterin' on the edge as it is-don't you think?
Just think of all the usefil bits of catology you get to teach him-he'll be your own Pawdawon!

Goldie, Shade and Banshee said...

Wow we just heard about baby Bill. What are you guys going to do? Is he there to stay? Not a meezer but pretty cute.

~Goldie and Shade

The Furry Bambinos said...

Hi Efurrybody! Your Mom is so wonderful to take in Bill! We are purring and purraying that he gets all better soon. As babies, Panda Bear and Meerkat had eye infections, too. They are both happy and healthy now, and even with one good eye each, are not hindered in the least! Best wishes to all of you!

Padre, Panda Bear, and Meerkat

Angel MoMo and Charlotte said...
