Farewell Cat Scouts

I am very sad because earlier today I just sent Denmaster of Cat Scouts my resignation letter. Mom and I had long been arguing whether or not I should stay in Scouts, but this time I couldn't argue anymore. I saw how crazy Mom's schedule is now and Mom has a health condition too. Two weeks ago, she was in pain again. Not as bad as it was two years ago when she had to be hospitalized, but nonetheless, pain is not a good sign. I don't want to add to her stress anymore so I did what I had to do. 

I'm keeping my blog to stay in touch with furiends. This is a sad day. Haven't heard from Denmaster yet. I hope she understands.

My Vacation Album

Hi there!

The 3-day trip has been pawsome.  Thanks to my good furiend, Sammy, who helped me in every way to make this trip a huge success.  Everyone enjoyed the sun, the water, the adventure and the fellowship.

Life is slowly going back to normal. All the Scouts were back home with their families safe and sound. I would like to share with you some wonderful photos I will treasure furever.

News Flash!

I have two very exciting news to share... Please bear with me because this is going to be a bit longer than my usual posts.

First, Sammy and I and the rest of the Scouts are now in my home country to enjoy the Philippine Summer Getaway adventure we have planned last month.  So far, everyone is enjoying the scenery, the beach, the water sports and the best hotel there is in Boracay - the Shangri-la Boracay Resort and Spa.

Sammy arrived here a day early so he can help me make sure all reservations were in order and the show will run very smoothly. He also helped me in welcoming a huge group of Scouts who signed in for this trip.  So far, so good.

At the airport

Here's a group photo Gracie took. 

There's Mauricio, Allie, Raz, Tubby, Gracie, Anya, Sammy and myself

Will talk more about our adventure in the days to come.  

***********************************************************************************************

The second exciting news is that I was interviewed by the Funny Farmer Felines for Mousebreath's cat interview of the week. It was fun and I was pretty excited to do this.  I am very honored to have been part of this distinguished lifestyle magazine for cats. Please do drop by these amazing sites to read about my interview.  I'll see you all there! 

God is good all the time! Count your blessings!

We're Leaving on a Jet Plane...

Hi furiends!

Mom is still busy as usual, but she promised to help me post about this very special event I'm hosting on the 16th of May at Scouts. Sammy is my partner on this.  In fact, we have our own travel service at Scouts - Sushi and Sammy's Travel Services. Isn't that cool? Our vision is to be able to visit as many places as possible and learn new things about that place. Our first project is the Philippine Summer Getaway 2014! We are taking advantage of the summer season in the Philippines and enjoy summer long sun puddles at the beach.

Boracay

We will visit different islands and beaches, engage in all sorts of water sports, try the Filipino delicacy and so much more!

El Nido, Palawan

Puerto Princesa Underground River

We're all excited to go on this trip! Those who signed up for this trip gets a passport. This was Sammy's idea. Brilliant, huh? Here's mine - 

I was asked if I'm ever hosting something like this in blogsville like Sammy's trip to the moon. That was huge! I'd like to, but I'm not ready for that yet.  I'm not closing any doors though.  With this trip, I will learn a lot from Sammy. Who knows, I might be able to do this in blogsville soon.

Purrmotion and an Award

Hi Furiends!

I'm happy to say that I'm officially back at Scouts. I was purrmoted to Cougar rank together with my good furiends. Yey! Mom is very proud of me.

Mom and I are now settled in our new house. Mom also has a new yaya. Her name is Ate Apple. She doesn't play with me as much as Ate Emy did, but she makes sure I'm well fed. I'm not sure which one I like better.

Anyway, this acknowledgement is super late. I'm so sorry.  You know how crazy our time was back then. I was given the Field of Flowers Award by none other than Nissy.  Thank you so much. I feel very special to have been nominated for this. 

That's it for now.  =)

I'm Back!!!

Hi. I'm back! I missed all of you.  Mom, together with the whole church where she attends, had her annual prayer and fasting which usually happens every start of the new year. That's why I was a no-show for almost a week.

Anyway, I have a lot to share with you. This is gonna be a long post. Please bear with me. Are you ready?

First, I got awards since last year that I haven't posted yet. Mom had been "very busy"--- her words. But I say it's better late than never. So here they are..

Thank you, Kitties Blue, for giving me a star.

Another star from my pal, Speedy. Thanks!

And another award from Kitties Blue and Carlos. Thank you!

Thank you for all of these awards, but sorry for not following rules here. Mom said I have so many things to share and it would make my post very, very long, so I didn't argue with Mom anymore on that. 

Anyway, moving on...

Second, I'm Cat Scout of the year along with Raz. Mom's very proud of me and of course I'm very happy about that too.  That means more treats. 

Third, I got mail! Two more Christmas cards - from Timmy Tomcat and Mollie & Alfie. Thank you very much! Wow!

Sushi-3, Mom-0. Tee hee...

Fourth, I got my neckerchief and Bobcat pin! Woo hoo!

    How do I look?

Last, but not the least, I got a package! I won a package from Fur Everywhere. 

It's a book and a cd from the author herself, Ms. Joan Ranquet

Mom is right!  2014 is gonna be a great year. This is how I started mine. =)

Thankful Thursday

This has been delayed in being posted. So sorry.  I've been very busy with Scout duties, but better late than never.

I have to thank Mauricio and his siblings from The Cat on My Head for passing this Lovely Blog award to me. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

As I've said earlier, I've been very busy with Cat Scouts for the past weeks.  Guess what!  I was awarded Cat Scout of the Month!  Wow!  I'm celebrating with Sammy, Raz and Allie, Wally, Mauricio and lot more fantastic Scouts at the Campsite.

We have a lot of things to do, but all of them spells F-U-N.  If you're not a member of Cat Scouts yet, what are you waiting for?  Join us and join the fun!

Wordless Wednesday

Blessings

I'm super happy today because of so many blessings!  First I got purrmoted to Bobcat rank in Cat Scouts.  I attended the investiture ceremony earlier.  Mom is so proud of me because I'm the first scout ever in my family. I'm proud to show you my Bobcat Purrmotion Card.

Then, when I thought that was it for today, I learned that I was given a super special award for my Cardwood Derby entry.  How pawsome is that! I did not win the competition, but I'm super happy for getting this special award.

Mom said to count my blessings and I am!  I'm definitely a one happy kitteh!

Thank you Mom for all the help.  Love ya!

Thankful Thursday

Look what I got!

My Cat Scout Membership Card. 

Woohoo! I got it in the mail this afternoon.

Then when Mom got home from work yesterday, she handed me a package from Sammy (Sam-o-ween).

I was so excited! Thank you, Sammy! I super love my new toys. As you can see, I couldn't wait to get the black one from its case.

Now I'm playing with it! I'm so happpeeeee!!!

Mouses!

Mouses! I'm not in the mood, Mom.

Look what I got... The Mouses! Award.

To pass it on, here are the rules.

1. Thank the blogger who gave you the MOUSES! Award. Thanks Raz, Allie, Ellie and Cubby of Friends Furever! √

2. Post the award somewhere on your blog. √

3. When acceptin’ the award, you need to use the word MOUSES! in a sentence.  For this requirement, you may also choose to use one of the many variations of MOUSES! if you so desire.  You know…  like…  mousin’, moused-up, etc…  √

4. Pass the MOUSES! Award on to two or more bloggers.  You can pass it along to as many as you like but please try for at least two so that the award is spread around the blogosphere and doesn’t fizzle out or anything.  And you’ll wanna pass the award on to bloggers whose work you read regularly and would therefore, sure as mouses recommend.  See what Nissy did there?  Yup, you spotted it.  He used a derivation of MOUSES! in a sentence.  He says, “Lead by example.”

Now I'm passing it on to...

1. Basil. My new furriend from Basil the Bionic Cat, also from Cat Scouts and...

2. Mario from Mario's Meowsings.

Cardwood Derby 2013

Something happened last night and I thought it will change everything for me like not being able to join the Cardwood Derby on Cat Scouts. I'd really be very, beyond me disappointed. Mom has been busy as usual but this time is different.  Mom is doubly busy because Ate Emy already left last night to go home.  I'm grateful for having her as part of our lives because she has been my playmate since Mom took me home.

Anyway, today is the start of Cat Scouts' Cardwood Derby.  I'm, of course, pawticipating!  I wouldn't put my troop down. By the way, I belong to the Worldwide Wildcats Troop headed by no other than Sammy!  This is a competition open to all Cat Scouts.

I'm truly excited to see all the entries. I'm getting mine ready.

Here's a short video of how we started making my car.

So... Let's start our engine!

Vroom!!! Vroom!!!

I Made a Boo Boo

Hello furriends!

I have so many things I wanted to share with you. So many things, so little time. I am behind with blog hopping too. Meow!

I got an email from Wally, Ernie and Zoey from the Island Cats and from Sammy and Mom Pam asking how we are now because they heard from the news that a huge storm is going to hit the Philippines. Yes, that's true. We're experiencing rains right now, but this super typhoon hit the middle part of our country (Visayas). Mom and I are on the upper part (Luzon) so we're safe. We prayed for those people from the Visayas region though. Ate Emy's family is from there.

Through Island Cats, I've also learned that our dear GJ has crossed the rainbow bridge already. We are heart broken again...

Last night, when Mom got home from work, I got an earful of sermon. Ate Emy told Mom what I did early last night. I went out of the balcony, went to our neighbor's and when Ate Emy saw me, I was doing a balancing act on the rails. It was like I was doing a tightrope stunt. Ohh... How I was reprimanded for it.  I thought I will never hear the last of it. 

"What were you thinking??? We're on the 17th floor! Are you crazy??? What if you've lost balance and fell off??? Huh??? Don't give me that look!"

 There goes my treats... Oh, cat!

On a lighter note, I am Cat Scout of the week! Woohoo! Couldn't have done it without the support of my furriends here at blogsville. I feel very much at home there because of familiar faces. Thank y'all for your support and cheering for me. I love y'all!
