International Box Day!

Well here I am in a bag with my sister Enta shortly before she left home to go live with her bunny rabbit and family!

Then here are me and my siblings in a light box with momma Isis having a little milk break! ;)

Next is me in my cooler bag keeping nice and warm while showing off my wonderful 8mm long ear tufties! :)

Then there are my big half brothers, Dizzy, Django and Dandy in the penthouse area of our cat condo in the run, that's just as small and tight as any box and lots of fun to hide in!

Then it's all my older half-siblings in momma Isis play tent when they were all cute and newborn! Momma Isis loves tents lots and lots and still likes to play in my new one in the run...

Below is momma Isis when she was not much bigger or older than I am now, sitting on one of our great hidey holes with Tigmut'hep laying in front of her. We all love this hidey hole as Tigmut'hep is too big to fit in it! ;)















As you can see even Uncle Ramses can fit into this great little snuggle spot to get away from Tigmut'hep...

It's not surprising really when Tigmut'hep likes to curl up and sleep on top of us (especially Uncle Ramses) if given the chance! ;)



Though given a box of his own that's big enough for him to get into Tigmut'hep is a pretty agreeable chap! ;)

Wonderful Wednesday...

Well now I'm an only kitten, as not only has my brother Elzar gone off to Italy, but my sister Enta has left now to go live with her family and their bunny rabbit!

So here I am in my Ikea bag pondering the meaning of life and trying to work out how to get Mummy to open her bedroom door, as I quite fancy the idea of napping on her bed with momma Isis and uncle Ramses this afternoon...

The other news is that Mummy has a big cold metal box that works once more and the one she killed off has been taken away. I guess that marks the end of my getting sautéed pork tenderloin for breakfast, roasty chicken for dinner as well as homemade burgers for lunch... Just when I was getting used to all the fine dinning on the meat that was in the old metal box thingy. Oh well Mummy says I can has Sunday roasty with the big cats now and when I go to something called "shows" I can have a whole tin of Applaws to myself while I'm there if I want and share a big tin of it with everykitty when I come home, just like momma Isis does!

Anyway Mummy's looking aweful tired since she had to get up and be all dressed and ready for the 7am delivery of the new big cold metal box, so I think she may just go for a nap and that means I have to be ready to invade her bedroom and stake my claim to a corner of the bed for myself... Oooh and I don't have to sleep downstairs at night anymore I gather, but will be allowed to snuggle with Mummy and Daddy all night if I'm a good girl and don't put the bitey on their toes, like momma Isis used to do! ;) Gosh and there's me thinking that momma Isis was always a good girl... It seems at even 16.5 weeks old you can learn something new about your own momma! ;)

Mummycat Monday...

Well today the kittens turn 6 weeks old and I have decided (with at least some help from Mummy) to give the kittens their "official names" at long last... I also have a BIG announcement to make! :)

Firstly there's the kittens names and exactly what they mean:

Boy is El Zehuti, Zehuti is one of the many names of the Egyptian god Thoth. He's a born mediator who is calm in any situation!

BG is Et Seti-Ra, from the Egyptian god of storms, Set, and his companion Ra the sun god. In addition to this SeTiRa is Hebrew for contradiction, coming from the same root as the word SeTeR, meaning hidden secret. So while both the gods little Setra is named for are depicted as male, together they become contradictory and form a female name that we like to think of as our “little bit of sunshine after the storm”. On top of this as many of you know Storm was an amazing ladycat who battled lymphoma not just once but twice! We were greatly touched by her story... Since our human family has been deeply effected in the past few years by cancer, Daddy loosing his father to it and Mummy's Mum battling it at present I thought we could do with some brightness to help keep things in purrspective! :)

LG is Enta Omri, named for a beautiful Egyptian love song meaning "You are my life" famously sung by the amazing Uum Kulthum, who at her peak could sing from the 2nd octive all the way to somewhere between the 7th and 8th octives! This seems most apt as little Enta would scream higher and louder than any kitten of mine to date, right from a few days old! ;) She is also the sweetest and most loving of little girly cats... :)

Now for the big news:
Setra will be staying with us here and coming out to shows with me and then going on to have kittens of her own when she is big enough and old enough to do so! :) Yes that's right my kitty friends, you will be able to watch Setra grow up in front of your eyes via my bloggy - now isn't that going to be fun!? :)
