So here goes:

I'm a spazzy kitty boy
The whole wurld is my kitty toy

I'm furry lucky in lots of ways
Fun and furriendship lights my days

But a warm and bright light shines
Of a love that is so fine:

The love I share with Ariel
My bee-yootiful gurl with the rebel yell

Sumday she'll be my kitty wife
And I will love her all my life.


I hope you liked that poem, sweetiepie!


And alla us Ballicai are kontinooying to purr and hope that our dear furriend Ana gets home safe.

Thankies, Skeezix, for the graphic and fur organizin' this event. Us Ballicai are furry worried about Ana, and we're purrin' and purrin' for her to be safe and go home.

Love and kissies to my sweetiepie Ariel.

The Seven Ps Meme

My furriends Bounce, Lucy and Trixie taggied me for the Seven Ps Meme! YIPPEE!!!! I got so ecksited that I started a rasslin' match with Brainball. See, I'm rasslin' so fast I'm a BLUR!

And if Brainball don't quit watchin' Momma with the flashy box, I'm gonna leap on her and get her inna headlock! Brainball, that is. Not Momma. I'm not sure I could get Momma inna headlock cuz Momma's bigger than Brainball!




Here's the rules fur the Seven Ps Meme:

In an attempt to get to know fellow bloggers a little better, this new meme was started called the 7 P’s. Fill out the 7 P’s and tag five blogs that you read on a regular basis. Have fun!

Passion -My sweetiepie Ariel! My furry biggest passion's fur her. She's the bestest gurlfurriendkitty inna wurld -- she's so bee-yootiful and so sweet and spunky and so much fun and I love her! And she's a rebel, too! Kool beaniez. Let's see, other passions are rasslin' with my sistur Brainball, spazzin' all ofur the housie, seein' where all I can find to climb and jump, findin' yummy stuffies to eat, makin' my sistur Dorydoo SQUEEK, and playin' pawsies undur the baffroom door with my sistur Marilyn. Oh, and sometimes I write poetry! My poetry coach, Jeter, is helpin' me with this. And my sistur Marilyn, too.

Purpose -My purpose is to SPAZ and have fun. Yeahyeahyeah! The whole wurld's my kitty toy! And my purpose is also to kill evil coffee stirrers. Beans can't see how evil they are, but we kitties can, and all of us Ballicai are really good at protecktin' our beans from them awful things! My purpose is also to pull up alla the drain stops inna housie and to remind my momma and daddy what my name is by always sayin' MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO!!!!! I don't think they'll furget annytime soon, do you??

Pursuit – Heh. I pursue EFFURYTHING!!! If it moves, I pursue it. And it don't efun have to move fur me to pursue it. Effurything is a toy. Efun my sisturs. They're some of the bestest toys! I love rasslin', I love chasin', I love ambushin' my sisturs as they walk by, and me and Brainball have the best rasslin' matches there efur was.

Position -My favorite position is crouched down, waitin' to POUNCE! To SPRING! To grab somekitty inna headlock, to kill an evil coffee stirrer, to leap on toilet paper cores and then bat 'em around. And my other favorite position is a BLUR -- spazzin' out, runnin' about a squillion miles an hour all ofur the housie, knockin' my foodies outta the bowl and stalkin' and then eatin' 'em, gettin' Momma to take the lids off her tea bottles and lettin' me use 'em fur hockey pucks!

Pummeling -I pummel the most when I RASSLE. And I love rasslin'. Me and Brainball rassle the most, though me and Dorydoo are gettin' to be bettur and bettur furriends alla time, so we rassle sometimes, too, which is 'specially fun 'cause when we rassle I make her SQUEEK, but when she starts screamin' at me, I hafta stop rasslin' unless I wanna getta WHAP.

Progress -Brainball's teachin' me all about how to be an Alpha Cat: patrollin' our perimeter, watchin' outta windows for strange critters, how to look aftur effurykitty inna housie and our beans. She tells me I'm a quick study -- that I'm doin' a really good job and learnin' a whole lot. She's not just my big sistur, she's my mentor, and she's the bestest sistur a boykitty could have!

Personality -I'm a SPAZ. Yeah, you already knew that, didn't ya? Well, I'm superduper friendly and easygoing. I'm a little bit shy with beans at first if I don't know 'em. But when it comes to kitties, I don't know a stranger. I love effurykitty and I make friends so easily -- I've nefur met a kitty I couldn't make furriends with. And when I ain't spazzin', I love to be rubbed, I love face skritches from momma and daddy, and when I'm really calm, I love snugglin' in laps. But I have to be superduper calm fur that cuz it's hard for me to sit still for too long! And there isn't hardly nothin' that skeers me. I efun love thunderboomers! They're KOOL.

And let's see, I'm gonna tag:

My sweetiepie Ariel
My buddy Jeter (he'll be home soon -- yippee!!)
My buddies Caesar and Prinnie
My buddy Jimmy Joe

Catnip Capers Meme fur Dorydoo!

hehehe, Dorydoo's the wackiest of us Ballicai when it comes to 'nip, so I thought I'd tattle on her!



When Dorydoo's onna nip, here's what she does:

1. First, she rolls around in it. She gets it all ofur her. She looks so funny, a little black cat with nip all ofur her! hehehe! But she don't care. She wants it all ofur her furs, efun on her little face!

2. And while she's rollin' around in it, she eats it. She eats it and licks it and licks it and eats it. She eats it then she licks it off herself from where she's rolled in it, likes it's the best tastin' stuffies inna wurld.

3. Then she starts gettin' REAL kooky. She gets all funny-lookin' in her big gold eyes and starts lookin' at alla us other Ballicai funny. If we get too close to her, she'll whack at us, squeekin' REALLY LOUD. Like she thinks we ain't cats no more, that we're big skeery polka dotted ellephunts or somethin'.

4. Sometimes she tries to chase us, but the nip makes her so unkoordinated that she trips ofur her feets and then starts wallowin' onna floor again. And she keeps on squeekin' and squeekin'. Dorydoo nefur meows. She squeeks efun when she's not nipped. But 'nip makes her squeekin' efun funnier!

5. Then Dorydoo starts tryin' to bunnykick annything she can get her paws on, squeeeekin' alla while. She'll bunnykick us other Ballicai, or she'll bunnykick Momma or Daddy's hands or arms, or any toy or whatever-thingie that happens to be close by. And man, how she keeps SQUEEEEKIN'!

I think my sistur needs inturventshun or Catnippies Anonnymouse or somethin'!

Love and kissies to my sweetiepie Ariel!

Meezer Rule Wednesday: 'NIP!

I was taggied by my bee-yootiful sweetiepie Ariel fur the Catnip Capurs Meme. So I thought I'd combine the meme with my Meezer Rule Wednesday postie and make Meezer Rules about 'NIP!



Here are the rules fur the meme:

"All you catsters out there have to do is just list 5 things you do whenever you're on the nip, and don't forget to tag some friends! Let's find out just how wacked out some of us get!!"

Okey dokey, here goes (and alla these Meezer 'Nip Rules are things I do when I'm on 'nip -- I believe in pracktisin' what I MAO):

1. Roll around inna nip! That way you get it all ofur you. And that makes it even MORE fun!

2. When you're nippin' out, say MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO MAO!

3. Immagine yur tail is a great big EVIL COFFEE STIRRER and try to katch it (only don't bite it too hard or you'll give yurself an owie -- I've nefur done that, thank goodness!).

4. Spaz around all ofur the housie with yur butt way high up inna air so you'll trip ofur yur own feets!

5. And when yur sisfurs walk by, GRAB 'EM! MAO AT 'EM! Foller 'em to the poopie box and WATCH 'EM and bat at their tails or their butts when they're tryin' to do their bizness. hehehe

And let's see, I'll tag my buddies Tyler and Kellie.

Tuckered-Out Tuesday

*whew*, it's been a wild weekend, I tell you what! Paw-tay- paw-tay, paw-tay. And it's been wunnerful, but I'm plumb tuckered out. Ariel, please teleport ofur whenefur you want, and we'll snuggle. I'm gonna take a nice long NAP.

Meezer Mancat Monday

Oh, I had the bestest time at the Sweet Sixteens Family Reunion! It was so much fun, and though I had a few niptinis, Ariel made me promise not to have too many so that I wouldn't barf alla way to Mars. And I always listen to my sweetiepie. So I didn't barf, and me and her danced and snuggled and ate, and me and her and Brainball and Dorydoo and Marilyn went to all kindsa fun places and had a superduper time with alla our furriends!

And now I'm back home, but I'm too hyper to rest. I wanna play... BOX WARS!!!!!

Here I am, in our big new box, and you can see from where I've been nosin' around I've gotta dust bunny on my whiskers. Hey... I hear somekitty. Who could she be? Onna my sisturs is comin' around to play box wars with me! Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy!



Who is she? Who? Who? WHO? I'm gettin' ready to SPAZ... MAO MAO MAO MAO MAOMAOMAOMAOMAO!!!



Wowie, it's Marilyn! That's a surprise. Me and her don't play box wars as much as I play 'em with Brainball or Dorydoo, but I guess she's kinda keyed up from missin' Mick so much -- so me and Marilyn had a fun game of box wars togethur!



And here's Brainball and Dorydoo restin' aftur the fun-filled weekend.

Sweet Sixteens Family Reunion!

The Sweet Sixteens are havin' a fabyoolus Family Reunion, and it's fur everykitty to enjoy! It's startin' today (Friday) and it'll last through Sunday. We Ballicai are gonna be there all weekend to help celebrate our speshul kitty furriends who have gained in years and ecksperience!

Ariel, I'd love for you to be my date, sweetiepie, and I hope to see effurykitty there who can make it! There'll be all kinds of good stuffies -- 'niptinis, storytellin', good foodies and dancin', stuff to play with, and my sistur Marilyn's gonna present a special poem she wrote in honor of the Sweet Sixteen Kitties!

So be there or be square! hehe

BREAKIN' NOOS: Momma caught Shadow, the fourth of the feral kitties, to go to his new home onna farm, far away from that bad ol' highway. That leaves only Starlight, and Mom feels sure she can katch him soon, too.

Momma's wish fur the purr-eshus feral kitties at their new home:

A sunbeam to warm you,
A moonbeam to charm you,
A sheltering angel, so nothing can harm you.
~Irish Blessing

She is so glad they're safe now, but she misses them.

My Nose Twins

The kitties at Crews' Views have a kool challenge fur alla us kitties onna Cat Bloggiesphere: find our nose twins! And guess what. I have two!

Me and Caesar are nose twins. He's got pickshures of him and me on his bloggie, too. I am so happy to be twins with Caesar! He's such a wunnerful sweet and handsum mancat, and I wanna be like him when I get more growed up.





























And guess who else is my nose twin! There's a fairly new cat blogger on the block named Toby, and he's a snowshoe meezer like me. He's furry, furry nice and I look forward to gettin' to know him bettur. And lookit his nose! Looks a lot like mine, doesn't it?

Meezer Rule Wednesday

My Meezer Rule fur today: Confound yur beans by choosin' weird places fur naps.

How's this fur a weird place to take a nap?

Under the mat in the bathroom. What will I think of next??

Hey, my sweetie Ariel! You wanna snuggle under the bath mat with me? hehe!

The Middle Name Meme!

In my last blog postie, I was thinkin' about what spazzy thing I oughta do next. Well, I figured it out pretty quick -- I started a game of box wars with my sistur Brainball, and here we are in the box and I've got her in a headlock!


I was tagged by my sweetiepie Ariel to do the Middle Name Meme! Sounds like a lotta funsies.

Let's see, what's my middle name, anyhow? I guess it's Mao since my full name is Chairman Mao, and my last name is the same as Momma and Daddy's family name. So MAO it is!

Here's the rules for the meme:

1. Post the rules before you give the facts.

2. List one fact that is somehow relevant to you and your life for each letter of your middle name. If you don’t have a middle name, use the middle name you would have liked to have had.

3. When you are tagged you need to write your post using your middle name and facts about it.

4. At the end of your post, choose one cat to tag for each letter of your middle name. Be sure to let each cat know she/he has been tagged. (It's okay if you don't do this... tag who you want to tag!)

Okeydokey, here goes:

M =Mischeevious! I'm always runnin' around aftur my sisturs, wantin' to play with 'em. Brainball and me are really good playmates, but Dorydoo and me are gettin' along bettur these days, too, and we play chase a lot and box wars but she still hollers at me a lot. I think she just likes to holler, though, and I like makin' her holler cuz it's funny. And I chase Marilyn, too, but Marilyn don't much like to be chased though she and me do nose kissies a lot. And I love to bat at my sisturs when they're in the poopy boxes! They get the funniest looks on their faces when I do that, and it just cracks me up effury single time.

A = Acktive. I've gotta heck of a lotta energy. I sleep, sure, but I'm on the go a whole, whole lot. I love to SPAZ! And I'm really really kurious about effurything! I've gotta check out efurrything and annything that looks innarestin' and I can rassle and chase alla my sisturs into the ground -- they all wear out before I do, efun Dorydoo (and she's really high enurgy, too)!

O = One. That's around how old I am. Momma and Daddy don't know my purrfday but my Gotcha Day is Febyooary 19, and when they brought me into the housie they thought I was prob'ly around eight or nine months old. So that makes me a little ofur a year old now. I'm a mancat but I've still gotta lotta boykitty in me! But my sweet gurlkittyfurriend Ariel doesn't mind that, and when I get a little more growed up, I'm gonna ask her to marry me!

And I tag my furriends Kimo & Sabi, Jeter, and Yao-lin.

Meezer Mancat Monday

Alla youkitties have just GOTTA go to my sweetie Ariel's bloggie and watch the video she made of me and her dancin'! It's the CUTEST!

And here I am, after spazzin' and spazzin' through the housie. I'm thinkin' real hard about where I should spaz next!

Box Wars!

Daddy got a new 'pooter case today, and that means that we Ballicai got a nice, new box to play with! Wowie! And the minute Momma put the box inna kitchun fur us, me and Dorydoo went to town.

Here I am, in the box, wonduring where Dorydoo is. I know she can't be far away.

Dorydoo, Dorydoo, where are you...?

Where, oh where, could she be....

EEK!!! There's Dorydoo, right outside the boxie! Only a flap's sepuratin' us! hehehe, Box Wars are about to start!

And Dorydoo sez GERONIMO!!!!!! Here she comes, to rassle my fuzzy butt into the ground! Or further into the box, anyhow! I love rasslin', and Dorydoo is a furry good rassler. And I love the funny little squeaky noises she makes when she rassles!

And here's a pickshure of us takin' a (little) break and lookin' at Momma. Momma brightened up the piskshure a whole lot so you can see Dorydoo, but I'm too far back in the box fur you to see much of me ecksept for maybe a little bit of my white pawsies.

Dorydoo and I had so much fun today! We're gettin' to be bettur and bettur friends, and that makes me happy. Marilyn and Brainball are both oldur and wear out quicker, but me and Dorydoo are both young kitties and can play good and hard! WHEE!

(Oh, a note: we're havin' trubble gettin' to some of our furriends bloggies! Fur some reason we can't get the bloggies of Faz, Kellie, Adan, Miss Peach, or Fat Eddy to load. But we're gonna keep tryin' to get in and maybe if it's Blogger doin' somethin' weird, it'll get its act straight!)

Toes and Toothies Thursday

Here's my toesies (anna claw)....

And if you look real close (might need to biggify), you'll see a toothie!

My purr pad is sooooo comfy.

Love and kissies to my Ariel!

Purrin' Fur Monty Q.'s Babybean!

We Ballicai are purrin' and purrin' hard for Monty Q.'s Babybean to get better really, really soon. Our hearts and our love go out to her family.

Thankies to Skeezix for the bee-yootiful graphic!

Tagged by my Sweetiepie!

My wunnerful gurlkittyfurriend Ariel came up with a superduper meme, and she taggied me! Thankies so much, sweetiepie!


Ariel sez, "The name of my meme is...Five Things that Changed Your Life." Okeydokeys, here we go!

1. I founded a wunnerful forefur home with my Momma and Daddy and with my sisturs, Dorydoo, Brainball, and Marilyn. I love my Momma and Daddy bunchies and bunchies, and I love havin' sisturs, too, 'cause I'm a furry social kitty and I like havin' company alla time.

2. I made fast furriends with my sistur, Brainball, who's Alpha Cat of us Ballicai. She's Ballicus I, and she's dezzignated me as her suksessor, so someday I'll be Ballicus II. She's teachin' me how to patrol and how to be a butt-kickin' mancat when I need to be one. But she's gonna live sixty squillion more years so it'll be a long, long time before I bekome Alpha Cat, and that suits me just fine because I love my sistur furry, furry much.

3. Findin' out about the Cat Bloggiesphere, thanks to my furry first online kitty furriends, Kimo & Sabi!

4. Mom lettin' me have my furry own bloggie -- wow! Well, I let my sisturs blog sometimes, too -- Marilyn became a blog-hog there fur a while, though, and finally had to get her own bloggie, hehe.

5. Meetin' my wunnerful, sweet, bee-yootiful gurlkittyfurriend Ariel through this here bloggie of mine. Ariel is the bestest sweetiepie in the wurld, and when I get a little bit more growed up, I'm gonna ask her to marry me.

And I'm gonna tag:

1. Kimo & Sabi (they're offline fur a little while cuz their beans is off visiting weenie dogs, but they'll have a meme to do when they get back, hehe)

2. Jeter

3. Trippur the Psyko Stray Cat

4. Adan

5. Tyler

My NOMSS Friend!

Karl gave alla us kitties on the Cat Bloggiesphere a wunnerful challenge, to make a new furriend who isn't of our same species. Well, I asked Spartacus -- also known as Sparky the Puggle -- to be my NOMSS (Not Of My Species Speshul) Furr-iend, and he acksepted! I'm so happy!



Isn't he handsum? Sparky's such a nice woofie, he's got a great sense of hoomor and a superduper perssonality. He loves human food like me, though he's eated marshmallows, and I've nefur gotted to try those (MOMMA!), and he efun goes to moovies! And he's both a puggle and a snuggle-puggle! That's just way kool in my book. If I was a woofie, I'd wanna be a snuggle-puggle, no doubt about it.


I'm real ecksited -- we're both young fellers (I'm not much ofur a year old, and he isn't quite a year old) and we still have that boyish outlook on life and can grow up togethur. I think we'll enjoy bein' furriends furry much! And my sisturs like Sparky a lot, too!

Meezer Mancat Monday

The capshun fur this pickshure is Brutherly Love. Here are me and Brainball, hangin' out. She's still reelin' from the wunnerful Gotcha Day Pawtay she had here onna bloggie. It was so much fun, and we thank effurykitty for comin' and makin' it such a speshul day!



Momma took this pickshure of me and Brainball just before I grabbed Brainball in a headlock and started a rasslin' match. I'm lucky to have a big Alpha Cat Sistur to rassle with! I love rasslin' almost as much as I love spazzin'.

Thankies, effurybodies, fur your kind words to my Momma about catchin' the outdoor feral kitties so they can go to their new, safur home onna farm. Momma misses Abe and Preacher a whole lot, and she'll miss Ligette, Starlight, and Shadow when they go, too, but she'll be happy knowin' they're all safe.

Keep them good vibes comin', and hope Momma don't catch no more possums, hehe!

Love and kissies to my Ariel!
