Floofy Friday

Hey, efurrybodies! MaoMao here, and guess what. Brainball's Eighth Gotcha Day is on August 1. That's less than a monthie away! Momma can't believe eight years have goned by so fast, but at the same time, she feels like she's always had a Brainball. And a Dorydoo. And a MaoMao. And a Marilyn. hehehe

Momma's been crazy buzzy, spazzin almost as much as me, but we Ballicai are gonna have a speshul postie to cellybrate Brainball's Gotcha Day. He's our Lion Boy Alpha Cat, and we love him! Here is is layin on Momma's legs, gettin rested up fur his Big Day.

Hello Efurrybodies!

MaoMao here. Wow, Momma's been furry slow on the uptake, helpin us Ballicai blog. She's been hoggin our compooter like crazy. We Ballicai are thinking that we need a compooter of our own. Only thing is, we'd still have to learn to type!

Here's Brainball and Dorydoo, sharin a nappie in Daddy's chair.



And here's Dorydoo, sunbathin and stretchin on the perchie.



Here's Marilyn, lookin furry kolor-koordinated on Daddy's itty bitty white pooter.



And here's me, lounging onna window perchie, watchin Momma and Daddy's garden grow.

International Box Day

MaoMao here. We Ballicai are purrticipating in International Boxie Day!

Whenefur Momma and Daddy get stuff, they always give the boxes to us Ballicai. We love alla our boxes, but the other day, Daddy gotted some new boots, and his boot box ROCKS.

Me and Brainball share the box cuz it can be opened out with a kompartment for each of us. And Brainball's been munchin on the box. He loves munchin on boxies.

Here's me in the box:



Here's Brainball in the box, yawning:



Here's me and Brainball together:



And here's me sayin' to Brianball, "Enuff sittin around. Let's play!"



So me and Brainball runned off and rassled, then Dorydoo got into the boxie. She likes it bunches, too.



Marilyn hasn't hung around in the boot boxie, but here she is chillaxin on top of her favorite box.



While Momma tooked the pickshure of Marilyn, me and Brainball and Dorydoo got into a three-way Ballicus rasslin rumpus, and we flipped the boxie closed. Then Brainball claimed it in the name of Catdom.



Happy International Boxie Day, effurybodies!

We're Here Wednesday

No thankies to Momma. She hasn't helped us blog in ten days -- count 'em, TEN DAYS!



The gurlz are catchin up on their beauty sleep...





...and Brainball's yellin at Momma to help us blog and vizzit more! We miss our furriends!



Roar, Brainball! ROAR!

Easy Like Sunday

We're a bunch of Ballicai, kitty-loafing around....



Zzzzzzzz.....



Snore......



Purrrrrrr.....


Oh, it's good to be Ballicai!

Boxcat Ballicai

MaoMao here: guess what! We have a new box. And we're all checking it out. Here's me in the box, and Marilyn's starting a game of Box Wars. Then Brainball comes along and gets real close to the camera!



Here's Brainball with the box, but he's too big to get in it, so he's just sitting by it and looking Lion-like.



And here's Dorydoo in the box. She's little, and look how purrfectly she fits. I think she likes it in there!



Here's some still pictures, in case the videos are wonky:

Washing and Wishing Wednesday

Brainball here. Dorydoo and I love to snuggle together, and here, I'm grooming her. There isn't any audio with this video clip, but if where were, you'd hear Mom saying SQUEE!



Here's a still photo, in case the video is wonky.


We Ballicai are sorry we've been scarce. Mom has been busy with the release of her novel, and she's working on a new one, too. Can you believe any bean could do that much typing, yet only help us kitties blog once a week (if we're lucky)?

Here's Marilyn MonREOW, asking Mom to please help us blog more often.



And MaoMao MAOed and MAOed and MAOed at Momma, but now he's taking a nap. The spring sunshine made him feel all relaxed and dozey.


We Ballicai send purrs and kittyhugs to all of you!

Super Sunday

It's a super Sunday for all kinds of reasons! For one thingie, alla us Ballicai got a beeyootiful awardie from my wife and sweetiepie, Ariel: the Works of Heart Awardie. Thank you so much, Sweetie!



And for another thingie, alla us Ballicai got another wunnerful awardie from our furriend Black-Cat: the Friendly Blogger Awardie. Thankies so much -- we are honored!



And still another thingie -- Momma got her author copies of her novel in the mail yesterday. She said something like YIPPEE SKIPPY! And she thought I might be innarested in checking out her book. Well, here's what happened:




Here's a pickshure of me with Momma's book, just in case the movie is wonky.



Guess I'm not much of a reader, but I thought it tasted purretty good, hehe! If anybody would like to check out Momma's novel, it's a love story, and it's on Amazon.

(Momma? MAO! That'll be ten Temptayshuns a piece, please, since we Ballicai letted you share our bloggie!)

Easy Like Sunday

Here in East Tennessee, we're getting lots and lots of rain, and the sound of it makes us Ballicai sleepy.



So sleepy...



Zzzzzzz...



*snore* (yes, Brainball snores.)

Spazzy Sunday and Good News!

Things are plenty spazzy around here! Well, I'm always spazzy. Here I am, playin with a paper wad. Yikes, it got away! Gotta go get it, gotta go get it!




In case the video is wonky, here's a still pickshure of me gettin ready to leap onna paper wad.



Momma's been spazzing out almost as much as me. Her novel, Mirror Blue, has been releesed, and beans can order it now! Momma's furry excited. Her novel's got two kitties in it, so that's purretty cool. One of 'em is based on Brainball, except the book kitty is a gurl.

Come to think of it, Momma used to think Brainball was a gurl. Beans!!

MaoMao: Momma? Am I in your bookie?

Momma: No, MaoMao. But there's a kitty in my novel-in-progress who is based on you.

MaoMao: YIPPEE SKIPPY!

Annyhow, if you want to know more, click on ofur to Momma's blog or her web site. (And I promise her grammar and spelling are bettur than mine, hehe!)

Snuggly Saturday

MaoMao here, and I'm snugglin and snugglin. I'm snugglin with Dorydoo in Daddy's chair...



And I'm snugglin with Brainball on the window perchie...



Marilyn's waitin to snuggle with Momma...



My wife Ariel gave me a beeyootiful awardie - the Nenos Awardie fur those who love blogging. Thankies so much, Sweetiepie! I am furry honored.

I do love blogging, even if Momma's superduper buzzy and can't help us blog as much as she used to. Through blogging, I found the best sweetie efur, and I've made wunnerful furriends.



Now I'm gonna take a snuggly nap in my box and dream of Ariel.



Happy Weekendie to Efurrybuddy!

Spazzy Saturday

Brainball: We're keeping Momma to her promise of letting us blog once a week! We wish we could do more, but Mom's just soooooo busy -- two more weeks until her novel is released. She's excited -- spazzing out like MaoMao -- but we Ballicai miss blogging and visiting our friends!

Now, would someone turn on this sink for me? I want a drink!



Dorydoo: We Ballicai have two boxes to play with, and MaoMao and I are making good use of them. Mom calls us "Boxicai" when we're playing in our boxes!



Marilyn: *singing from the top of Mom's computer* "I want to be loved by you, boop boop a doop!"



MaoMao: Hi, efurrybodies! We Ballicai have missed you. Like Brainball saided, Momma's gonna try to help us blog once a week. That's purretty good, as buzzy as she is. But don't worry, we aren't goin annywheres. We love the Kitty Bloggiesphere and alla our furriends!



Us Ballicai gotted some wunnerful awardies frum our furriends since the last time we blogged. My sweetiewife Ariel and our furriend Ana both gaved us this furry purretty awardie:



Thankies so much! Us Ballicai are honured.

And Karen Jo gave us the Grand Awardie:



Thankies so much, Karen Jo! You're such a sweetie. With the awardie, we've gotta tell five reasons why we think life is grand:

1. Spring has sprung -- all kinds of flowers are comin up efurrywhere and the trees are gettin their leaves back.

2. Momma and Daddy's garden. All kinds of kool stuff is growin there! We Ballicai don't eat that veggie stuffies, but it makes the beans happy.

3. We're excited fur Momma about her novel, efun if it means she can't help us bloggie as much.

4. Momma gives us boxies to play with regularly, and we love boxies!

5. Momma puts her fleece shirtie on the bed efurry day fur us to lay on and nap on.

*~*~*Yup, Life is Grand!*~*~*

My sweet Ariel also maded us Ballicai these beeyootiful grafficks. We love them, and we love and appreshiate you!
