Flashback Friday, NOMS day and Friendly Fill-Ins

Today is Flashback Friday AND NOMS day.   We're posting a flashback post from last year.....at the end we have a funny (well....WE think it is) story to tell you about Mom.

Today is a special day in the Blogosphere...its' NOMS day....Not of My Species Day....

The day was originally started by The Cat Realm  in 2007.  Here’s what they said:

The Cat Realm's I Dare you All to make a Not of My Species (NOMS) Friend.From The Cat Realm: "We declare
August 5th to be NOMS Day, a new international public holiday! Details at our blog; we hope you will celebrate with us! Today we are celebrating Noms Day, a holiday to remember that all beings are equal, to remind ourselves to be tolerant towards everybody, to reach out across species, cultures, nationalities, religions, languages, beliefs and appearances and to come together and embrace our differences We have a few NOMS friends"

This year we're sharing one of the (many) lizards who visit us.   This little guy seems very happy behind the clock.

Do you have NOMS friends?

Now....for the funny story.....The other day Mom and Dad were working in the yard.   Mom came in and was at her computer for quite a while when she felt an itchy feeling inside her shirt on her back.  She figured it was a leaf or something from outside.   She tried to brush it off and it didn't come off.   She kind of FREAKED....pulled off her shirt and to her dismay.....a BABY LIZARD was in her shirt.   We tried to get it for her but it ran into a closet.   Raz the Hunter will probably eventually get it!!

We're  also pawticipating in Friendly Fill-ins sponsored by McGuffy's Reader and 15 and Meowing.

Raz is answering this week.

Friendly Fill-Ins Week 13
1. I am most proud of __My accomplishments at Cat Scouts including Cat Scout of the Year for 2013_______.
2. I am embarrassed to admit ___I have a little baby meow_______________.

3. My super-power might be    I can jump almost all the way up the wall            .

4. I really wish I could   spend more time with my special Ladycat Madi                     .

Toys Tuesday

We spotted these guys from our window perch on our cat tree.....we wanted to invite them in to "play"  Spoilsport Mom said NO!!!

Funny thing though.......one of their relatives DID get in and is hiding in our office (or maybe not....we won't tell)  That really creeps  Mom out!

Thankful Thursday

I really love my Mom and there's nothing that makes me more THANKFUL than when I can do something special for her.

Sooo.....I was kind of disappointed that she didn't seem to  like my latest present.

Gee.....do you think SHE would appreciate my gift?????

ManCat Monday with Raz

The other night Mom saw me doing this.............

She turned around to see what I was looking at and saw THIS......

Sorry it's blurry.....he took off as soon as Mom got his photo. Guess lizards don't like the flashy box either!!!

ManCat Monday

Hi everyone,  I'm really enjoying sitting in the sun puddle in window and soaking up the warmth.

You never know who might show up for a visit........

Foster Friday

Lexi isn't originally from Florida so some of our "wildlife" is new to her.  This little guy is lucky she's inside and he's out because he's really teasing her.

Tasty...um...Thankful Thursday!

Today we wanted to show you a new tasty friend who is very thankful that we didn't catch him.

Mom saw this little foot showing behind the clock...Hey....who are you??
Please don't eat me...I just want to be friends!
Mr Lizard lived to see another day. Don't worry, we're watching that spot waiting for his return!!

Mom Sharon here: We tried to get Mr Lizard to release him outside, but he got away every time. We think he found his way out of the house just like he found his way in since he hasn't been around (in any form) in the last few days.

(Tasty) Friends on Friday

Allie wants to know who that is outside....

I hear it but I can't see it....

Hey look - he's waving!!!
Hi Mr Lizard....want to come in for lunch? YUM!
