Holiday Buzz

-- Rue

OMG I've been so busy I failed to greet you on Christmas day! Meowy Christmas, everyone!

spending Christmas eve at Somerset Makati Ave. -- my dress is so purrrrrty! :)

Here's some buzz about my holidays:

I had a great Christmas eve at Somerset. My aunt invited us over, and I was supposed to stay there for the night but momma didn't bring my litterbox and whatnots. So we had to go home just before the Noche Buena. Besides, Qish was alone at home and we didn't want him to spend Christmas by himself. But what's great about it is that we discovered a hotel/serviced apartment that allows pets! Somerset along Makati Ave. accommodates pets at the 2nd to 4th floor. Momma said we'll book there some time, and we'll bring Qish, too! Yay! Another good thing is it's just across my favorite park -- Ayala Triangle Gardens! Double yay!

I got this really nice gift from Aunt Mariel and Uncle Ian: our framed family portrait, made of a mosaic of our various photos! Wee! Ain't it beautiful? :) You have to step a bit away from your monitor to appreciate it, but if you look closer, you'll see the different photos of Qish & myself! We love, love, love it!

Click photo to enlarge. It's amazing! :)

I got another wonderful gift from my PAWsome doggie friends: Jacks, Shachie & Tubby, and their hoomans Tasha & Trish. Qish and I love the dangling whatchamacallit toy! We have a video where we went a lil crazy with it, we'll post it soon:

Momma and I went holiday shopping at my favorite store -- Bow & Wow! Oh, everyone there was excited to see me, teehee :)

She was shopping for her cat, too, and she couldn't resist touching me! 

One last good news: I won in Bow & Wow Petparazzi Video Contest! YAY! I am getting P5,000 Bow & Wow GCs as my cash prize :) Weeeee!

Here's my winning video:

Enjoy the holidays everyone! Don't forget to keep your furry babies away from firecrackers/fireworks! 

This Is My Dream!

--RUE

What do you want to be when you grow up? I always wanted to be a meow-del! You know, the ones that you see in magazines, newspapers, TV, billboards. Yeah, I have big dreams! I love posing for the camera!

So momma thought I should win in this contest to be the cover of a magazine. And I really love to be adored by many, but, but...I can't do it without you! I need hoomans (and furbabies, too) who have a Facebook account to support me in two easy steps:

1. LIKE Bow & Wow's page (skip this if you have previously liked this)

2. LIKE my super, duper, mega cute photo!

So that's it, very easy, right? It would be nice if you can share this with your friends, too! Please help me make my dream come true! THANKS! :)

Nippin'

Our Grandma Wowa Nhengphi gave us shopping money.  Must. Spend. In. Bow & Wow.

So we went to our favorite store, and guess what we got for ourselves:  some 'nip and grass!

Qish went crazy as soon as he got a whiff of the 'nip!  He was the one who pulled it out of the plastic, and just went cross-eyed (as most Siamese cats are) and totally crazy!  He even salivated on the box, ewwww!  Momma immediately put some on our scratching post, and everything went blurry from there.   I remember being soooo happy, I thought I was in cat heaven!

Momma hasn't opened the grass yet, so it hasn't started growing.  She promised to do it this weekend when she has the time to read the instructions.  We'll post photos of the grass once it starts growing, and before we munch on it!  In the meantime, I'll have to say goodbye.  I'm bound to go to cat heaven again in 3, 2...

I'm in a Magazine!

-- Rue


So I'm in Bow & Wow Times, and I love it!  They're calling me a Bow & Wow Baby :)

   

I Won! I Won!

Note:  Momma had been too busy taking care of Qish, it took her a looooong time to post this! :|

I won in Bow & Wow's PETparazzi contest!  Weeee!  I'm proud to say that I'm the only "Pinoy" pet among the winners -- all of the dogs and the other cat who won have breeds, and I'm the only Puspin!

So here are the photos when we claimed my prize:  3-month supply of products from Bow & Wow at P2,500/month, for a total of P7,500!  Weeeee!

Momma and I decided to donate one month (P2,500) to PAWS.  We know that there are a lot of cats at the shelter, and they need help!  I am excited to "pay it forward" to PAWS!  Life has been good to me, from the time I was rescued by momma from the street.  This is just my way of saying thanks to everything good that's happening in my little cat life :)

So here are the photos that made me win!  Thanks to everyone who voted for me!  Special thanks to Nugget's momma for supporting me, yay for Puspins, right Nugget? :)

Caaaatnip!

-- Rue

I am soooo stoked today!

Momma got us a catnip spray from our favorite store, Bow and Wow in Shangri-la: 

Eight In One Kookamunga Catnip Spray 4 Ounces - M6104

I just went krazeeee when she sprayed it on my toys!  I even tried licking off the droplets from the floor.  It just made me super happy!  And after my little stoked moment, I fell asleep right where my toys are.  One happeeee day!  Weeeee!

I don't know why, but Qish doesn't seem to get the same effect.  Maybe Qish is not a cat?  'Cause momma doesn't act strangely as well.  What's wrong with them?!

  

Please Vote for Meee!

-- Rue

No More Donut For Me!

-- Qish

Finally, my donut collar has come off!

Last month, when momma arrived from her trip to Malaysia, Singapore and Indonesia, she noticed a bald spot in between my shoulders.  She had me checked, and was advised that it may be an allergy to Revolution which Rue and I get monthly to ward off those mites and fleas.  I was given pills to take but I wouldn't let her shove those pills in my throat!  Teehee. 

The bald spot was soooo itchy so I tried to lick it all the time.  But since that part is supposedly "unreachable" for my tongue, I licked the part nearest to it.  I licked it over and over again until momma noticed that I already developed lesions from it!  She put on the most-hated Elizabethan collar (I call it the ugly cone collar) that morning and scheduled a visit to Dr. Riza after her work.  Rue was such a bully as soon as it was on!  She was biting me here and there, and was just nudging me to play with her maybe because she knew I can't run with that thing on!  I wanted to smack her in the face but the cone left me helpless.

When Dr. Riza saw me, she told momma I have a hotspot!  I learned that it's a self-inflicted lesion caused by overlicking a part.  It may be triggered by an insect bite, a rash, bald spot, what-have-yous.  So momma has to put an ointment on it twice a day.  I got an antibiotic injection, too.  I also has to keep my ugly cone collar for a minimum of 10 days!!! :'(  That's a tragedy.  But of course momma understands how bad I feel about that ugly cone, so as soon as we (Rue and I -- she always tags along because she loves getting attention!) got home, momma left again to buy something from Bow & Wow in Shangri-la.  And it's a beautiful gift for me!  It's an alternative to the ugly cone, and I call it the donut collar.

 ProCollar Protective Collar, X-Small

I love that it doesn't get in the way of my navigation, eating, drinking and playing.  It feels a little funny having a tad too big a thing on my neck, but I was comfortable wearing it.  I wore it for almost a month, would you believe!  Because when momma & Dr. Riza took it off after two weeks, I started licking it again and developed lesions, again.  Teehee.  I can be naughty, you know.

Check out how great this product is!
