Happy Thanksgiving!

Mommie Karin -

This is my very first Thanksgiving. Leslie and Jeann said that I had to have a little time out and think about what I'm most thankful for. Between you and me, it didn't take more than a second to think about.I'm most grateful for:

- Mommie Karin, Charlotte and Peter Pan for rescuing me and my sisters and providing a warm and nourishing home

- Leslie and Jeann for finding me so adorable and cheeky and adopting me
- Peek-a-Boo and Pebbles for allowing me to stay with Leslie and Jeann and not sending me back to Mommie Karin's

Very early this morning Leslie and I were up baking...I didn't know I had such talents. Leslie put a little apron on me but I still got myself into the flour. We had such fun. At one point a really, and I mean really, loud alarm went off. I was so scared but Leslie explained that it was just the fire alarm. You see, sometimes that happens when the oven gets very hot. Leslie said that the oven was retaliating because it's hardly ever used...only during the holidays for baking purposes.

We all hope that you, Charlotte and Peter Pan have a wonderful and safe holiday.

We look forward to your next visit in a couple of weeks.

Love and floured wet whisker kisses,

Peaches

Dart renamed Star...

Sending some updated pictures. I have renamed Dart to Star, because she is a shooting star!! As you can see she has adjusted well to her new surroundings and looks up to her big brother, Duckie.

Hi D'Arcy,

Wait 'til you see the little man! - he is getting big! At first I was worried because he doesn't eat nearly as much as you said he should (he probably eats maybe 4 medallions of the Raw and two big tablespoons of Evo a day and he even leaves behind some of that), but he is (obviously!) growing like a weed and he certainly doesn't seem to be at a lack of energy! - in fact, I wish he didn't have so much energy at 5 am!!! What a wake-up call!!! He's like a pinball! Just a few days ago I could single-fist him to pull him out from under the covers when he dove in, but now he's getting so big I need to double-fist him!!! And just wait until you see him pounce! - he jumps quite high (especially if it's on top of Kisa!)

Meet Ernie & Dexter!

Ernie is the one with white on his tummy and Dexter is the tabby. They're brothers from a litter of seven. Darc'y fostered them. She's been the first mother,and a wonderful one, for all of our adopted kitties. We are so happy to have them in our lives. We've turned into cat lunatics! The first picture is of Ernie and Dexter cleaning up together after a meal. The second is of Ernie on top of Dexter in the magazine rack. They are rough and tumble kittens. The third one is Dexter after he managed to squeeze himself in acereal box. Yes, there's only one cat in that picture. The fourth is Ernie watching the special cat movie. It features exciting footage of chickens, fish, and butterflies...

Happy Birthday to me...

...not that I want this letter to be all about me, but it's my birthday and I'm six months old! I hope we have a party today and invite all my new and old playmates.

Gee Mommie Karin, can you believe I've been with Peek-a-Boo and Pebbles for seven weeks. Wow. Seems like just yesterday that I arrived. Gosh, just a week ago I was home from my very big adventure and allowing the girls time to re-adjust. Now all is back to normal and everyone is extremely happy.

Pebbles and I played a game of tag last night...I chased her into the closet and waited for her to come back out...when she did, I chased her to the other end of the room. Back forth we went. Then I decided that I would play "tunnel." You remember that game, don't you Mommie Karin? That's when I burrow myself into the rug. When I that here, Pebbles goes from one end to the other trying to get me. Sometimes she decides to pounce on me while I'm underneath.

Even though I'm a brave little girl, Leslie still doesn't want me to go around the corner by myself. She insists that one of the big girls go with, but sometimes they don't want to. It during those times that Leslie thinks I'm very cheeky. But when she calls me, I definitely come straight home - not that I actually know my name, more like I know her voice.

So, enough about me. How are you? How are Charlotte and Peter Pan? And my two new step sisters, are they getting better? Did you dress everyone up for Halloween? We didn't have many scary people come to our door...just as well, I probably wouldn't have given out any treats because I would have wanted to eat them myself. Yes, I'm still a bit of a scrounge. I'm trying not to be, but I don't seem to be having much luck.

Well it's time to decide what to do next - either a little kitty nap or look for lunch. I hope this finds that all is well. Enjoy this beautiful weather.

Love to all,
Peaches
