Meme!

We got tagged for a meme! Yay. We were tagged by Eric and Flynn to do the "Middle Name Meme".

Here is how it works:

1. You have to post the rules before you give your answers.

2. You must list one fact about yourself beginning with each letter of your middle name. (If you don't have a middle name, use your maiden name or your mother's maiden name).

3. At the end of your blog post, you need to tag one person (or blogger of another species) for each letter of your middle name. (Be sure to leave them a comment telling them they've been tagged.)

Cobalt: We don't have middle names, so we are going to use our maiden names. On the Petfinder website my name was Hobbes.

H- handsome. My mommy tells me I'm handsome every single day. I think I look very many with my little white patch of fur under my chin.

O- ornery. Ha! I am not very social when the beans want to play with me. I also get mad very easily. I don't play any games, lol!

B- bashful. Well, only when I want to be. I don't like it when humans come near me, but I will come up to them and stick my head in their faces until they pay attention to me. I will walk all over them and walk on their computer and just beg and beg for attention. I even cry at their bedroom door all night until they come see me. But the second THEY want to come by me...I run away!

B- bizarre. Mom says I'm bizarre because I like to do crazy things. I run around a lot and sometimes I run into the sliding door or jump up and bash my head on the window. I never seem to learn that there is a piece of glass there, lol! I also like running aimlessly around the apartment. Most of the time the beans are directly in our path so we make sure to cause the most inconvenience to them.

E- energetic. I have tons of energy, of course this is to be expected as I am still a kitten. I run around all the time and I've even learned how to jump up and grab the door handles. (I'm smart and know thats how you open the door) Unfortunately, for me, our apartment has the circular door handles and not the long ones, so I can't turn them to open the doors.

S- sneaky. I am VERY sneaky. I like to hide where Wrigley can't find me and then jump out at the last second and pounce on him. I also like to be sneaky and hide from the beans.


Wrigley: My turn! Can you guess what my name was before I was adopted? I bet you can. If you guessed Calvin, then you are correct!!

C- cuddly. I love to cuddle and I don't mind if the beans pick me up and snuggle me. I wish I could be around them all the time. My lapdaddy is my favorite and the second he sits or lays down, I run right over to be next to him.

A- alert. I pay attention to everything. I love sitting in front of the window and observing everything outside. Anytime I hear a little sound, I have to get up and go investigate.

L- lucky. I think I am very lucky that I found this great furrrever home. I am also incredibly lucky that the beans adopted me AND Cobalt and didn't just pick one of us. I would have been very sad if we had to be separated.

V- vocal. I am very vocal. If a hand even come near me, I start purring as loud as I can. The beans say it's like having a massage chair because my whole body vibrates when I purr. I also love to meow and tell the beans how much I love them.

I- idiotic. I couldn't think of anything for "I" and Cobalt found this word on an "Adjective List". He made me do it. This concept is so foreign to me, I don't even know what the word means. But the bean is laughing and well, she thinks it's funny so I guess I'll go along with it. But I'll give Cobalt a whap later.

N- nonchalant. I am very laid back and things don't bother me much. Unlike Cobalt, it's very hard to make me angry. The beans can do whatever silly things they want to me and I don't care. Luckily, they haven't abused this yet...but if they do too many crazy things to me, well...things could change.

Wow, that was really hard!! Sorry if our answers were terrible, our bean isn't exactly "with it" this morning. Since many of you have already done this, we aren't going to tag anyone. But feel free to participate if you haven't already.

Award & Meme

Wrigley: YAY, Cobalt and I have received our second award and we couldn't be more excited about it. It's called the "You Make My Day Award" and we were given it by Diamond. Thanks, Diamond.



We will pass this award on to our identical twins from across the big pond, Lyra & Ceasar.

Secondly, we were tagged by our furry friends Gandoph and Grayson at It's All About Meow to do Tigmut’hep’s meme. You need to tell everyone 3 things that are new with you! Link it back to Tigmut’hep and the purrson who gave it to you and pass it on to 3 more kitties you’d like to know more about!

1.) The beans found some of Zeus' toys today and gave them to us to play with. There were 3 balls and they all make noise. We love to play soccer with them. Mom says we're practically pros.

2.) The beans got new cell phones on Wednesday and they are fascinated with them. They play with them a lot which leaves less time to play with us. At least we have each other...and we hope the novelty wears off very soon.

3.) Our dadbean has a toy called "Tickle Me Elmo: TMX". We think it's very funny and we love to watch it. Although sometimes it scares us quite a bit.


Again, we'll tag anyone that hasn't done this one yet. We hope everything is well with all of you guys, we're kind of tired tonight so we will spend tomorrow catching up on all of your blogs!!

A Little Bit of Everything!

Cobalt: Yay, I get a turn to post again! I love when it's my turn. Today started off not so great. Both of the beans had off from work today so they had this whole idea that they would get to sleep in. Well, Wrigley and I didn't like that idea too much so we tried to sabotage their day of relaxation. Starting around 5:00 am I began crying at their door. Sometimes I even jumped up and tried to grab the handle. Finally I was crying so much that they came and told me to stop. But at 6:30 I was still crying, so they finally let us in. We jumped into bed and cuddled up and got to sleep with them for a while. It was very nice.

Then, we spent the day playing together and snuggling daddy since he was sleeping a lot since he is not feeling very good.

Also, Smudge and Zoe tagged us for a meme.

The rules are:
a) Post who tagged you and link back to them and then to http://www.petspics.blogspot.com/.
b) Then answer this question: What three things would you do that you have never done before, if you knew you wouldn't get caught, get in trouble or suffer any consequences?
c) Then tag 3 other kitties, beans, woofies, or any other assorted animal.

1. I (Cobalt) would knead moms hair ALL the time. I just started doing it yesterday and she doesn't like it because it makes her hair a mat. I'm not sure how your hair can be a mat, but she makes funny faces when she attempts to brush it.

2. Wrigley would explore more in the laundry room. The beans don't let us go in there because they are afraid we will get stuck behind the big machines. Wrigley has tried to get back there before and he always gets scolded.

3. We would be able to eat the beans food whenever we wanted and not have them get mad at us.

We'll tag anyone that hasn't done this yet since we're not sure who has and hasn't.

Thirdly, we received our first award from Meezer Tails!! We have never gotten an award before so this makes us very happy. :-) Thank you furry much! We will add it to our sidebar ASAP.


And finally, some pictures from today.

Wrigley and I were cuddling with mom earlier and we were so comfortable. We made her so warm that she fell asleep and the dadbean took our picture.

Here I am doing that kneading thing. I don't really know why I do it, and neither does mom. Do you know why I do it?

Earlier Wrigley was giving himself a bath and I can be seen in the background.

Since it's my turn to post, I might as well steal the show. Right?
I was looking very handsome today!
Then I rolled over to get a tummy rub from the bean. I look a lot fatter than 4 pounds in this picture. :-X

Then I cuddled Wrigley and we fell asleep.

Geez mom, all these pictures make me tiiiiiiiired.

Another Meme!

Cobalt: Man, we sure are getting popular. We got tagged for another meme today! This time we will be a little more on the ball, and post it the same day we got tagged.

We were tagged by Derby and it's an easy one, all you have to do is tell everyone 3 things that are new with you! Link it back to the kitty who gave it to you and Tigmuthep and pass it on to 3 more kitties you'd like to know more about!

Lets see, everything is new to us and to you since we are very new to blogging, but we will come up with something good.

• We have discovered that we love sleeping under the beans bed...during the DAY. At night time, we only like to jump on the beans feet and make them stay awake.

• Yesterday, Wrigley and I went to the vet. It was fun because everybody thought we were cute. They had to stick a sharp thing in my back, but I didn't mind, I didn't even make a meow. But, when they gave me banana flavored medicine, I didn't like it too much. Don't they know bananas are for monkeys? I am certainly not a monkey.
  

• Two nights ago, the beans let us sleep in the family room for the first time. Normally, Wrigley and I have to sleep in the "guest bedroom" which is really our bedroom. I guess we've been behaving good since they let us go more places at night. Maybe soon, they will let us sleep in their room too!

Wow, that was fun! We will tag:

Dragonheart & Merlin

Tara, Princess Meezer

and Tybalt, the Prince of Cats


Sorry if you guys have done them before! There are so many memes it's hard to keep track of them all. We've only been here a few days, we can't imagine how those of you who have been here longer keep track! Oh, mom says we can post all of our cute pictures tomorrow!

Meme

We got tagged for a meme!! This is our first meme so we're very excited. It is called Seven Random Things About Me though we will call it Seven Random Things About Us. We were tagged by Pyewacket over at topcatrules. So, here we go:

• We like wrestling...A LOT. Cobalt is definitely the bossy one and Wrigley is the one who just lays back and takes everything that comes his way.

• We're still getting used to the flashy box the mom bean uses ALL the time. We more like to play with the little string that hangs off of it. Mom doesn't like it, but we sure think it's fun.

• Only Wrigley likes treats. We each get one but Wrigley usually eats them both.

• We're both a little clumsy. Dadbean likes to point the laser pointer at the wall behind the couch. We like to sit on the top of the couch and try to catch it, but sometimes we fall off.

• We like exploring behind the TV. The beans put paper there and always yell at us when we try to go back, but sometimes it's fun to do what you aren't supposed to be doing.

• We're working on getting the beans to share their bean food with us. So far it hasn't worked too well. We jump up and smell their plates but then they put us on the floor. We really need to teach them about sharing.

• Today the beans came home and they had a surprise for us. It's a new litter box! It has big teeth in it and we're a little scared it's going to bite our butts. But we're brave, and went in and tried it anyways. Here is what it looks like:

The beans say it has some ion thing so that our poops won't make the bathroom smell funny. Now if only we could get an ion thing for Wrigley's butt! :-P

We will tag anyone who hasn't done this yet. We've seen it on plenty of blogs already so we're not sure who has and hasn't done it yet. Have fun!
