First, we want to thank all the kitties who showed up for the house trashing party. It was a resounding success. The mom was in tears and the neighbors not only called the police several times, but are no longer on friendly terms with the mom. Sounds like she should have brought them some swag home too! We hope she gets used to the death glares soon. Great job, kitties!
Today we are hosting an event at The Tabby Cat Club all about My Gotcha Day! So stop by for some sweet love stories all covered in fur. We hope there'll be some great kitten shots too!
These are the first photos of Oui Oui.
Years ago, I was a tiny kitten in a scary place with cages and loud, noisy cats and dogs. For a while my brothers and sisters were there, but they left one by one, then I was all alone. I hollered and yelled cause I didn't like it. A man put his finger in my cage and I tried to hold on but couldn't. So I yelled some more, but no one came. A girl looked in. I was still yelling when a little later a lady looked in. She had a person open the cage and she held me and scratched me. I could hear her heart and it sounded good, so I purred and purred. She was showing everyone what a nice kitty I was, but no one looked and the man was following, telling people I was a bad scratching kitty! She told the man it was only cause I was lonely and he shouldn't have pulled his finger away. But still no one was interested in me, so the lady got mad and said she'd "take" me.
A couple days later I went home with the girl who looked in and the lady. I was SO HAPPY! When they let me out of the cage, I ranned and ranned all around the room for 15 minutes cause it felt so good! I did stop to look at some toys, but then I ranned some more while they laughed at me the whole time. But I didn't care. The lady wanted to call me Jubilee, and the girl insisted my name be Sweet Pea (Oui Oui is only my nickname). The lady, who was now the mom, and The Girl laughed cause they were there at the loud scary place to help The Girl's granny find a dog, so this is also the story of how they helped find granny's dog.
Tomorrow we'll tell you all about BlogPaws!

Well, we DID some of our best trashing. Like we said, we brought our OWN bag of trash!. In fact, TBT says this is an excellent idea and hopes it happens most weeks somewhere. Saves him trips to the landfill place.
Happy Gotcha Day!!!!
Glad you were snatched up too, as much fun has sure come due.
What a great story about how you were adopted! Did your granny ever find a dog? :-)
We'll look forward to the BlogPaws update, but of course our human is going to be sooo jealous--another human who, presumably, got to meet Odilia and Triscuit!
you precious wee little baby. Kisses and more!
Oh, Sweet Pea, what a wonderful Gotcha story. Happy Gotcha Day! Also, glad to hear that the House Trashing party was such a success! Can't wait to hear about your mom's time at BlogPaws!

Haapy, Happy Gotcha Day Sweet Pea! My Dad, the Flat and the Hat had such a great time and so enjoyed meeting you in purrson at BlogPaws!
Happy gotcha day, Oui Oui! My human is bummed she did not get a chance to chat with your human at BlogPaws too - as it was, there were a lot of humans she DID hang out with, but only for a few minutes! I can't wait to read your human's report!
Blogpaws sounds like so much fun. Maybe someday our Mom will get to go.
The TCC event is great! We love reading everyone's gotcha day story.
Thank you so much for your kind words about Auntie El's passing. We're sorry it's taken so long to reply but Mom is having a hard time. It's comforting to have the support of the Cat Blogosphere at this sad time.

That's the best Gotcha Day story. We cannot believe all your siblings were adopted and you were left behind. You were the prettiest little kitty with all your glorious markings. Maybe it was all that yelling that scared people away. We are sure you found the purrfect home. Purrs and hugs from the kitties at The Cat on My Head, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Josette
Happy Gotcha Day sweetie!
We're glad we could help with the house trashing. We sure did have LOTS of fun!
We love your Gotcha story. Sometimes we need to yell to get the desired result. MOL.
What a CATABULOUS Gotcha Day story! Mom was so tired that the slacker didn't have time to work on mine and she forgot all about this great event!
My Mom said it was soooooooooo wonderful meeting your Mom!! She was so happy she could FINALLY give her a GIANT HUG!!!
She told me to send lots and lots of LOVE to your Mom!
Love, Cody
