Spotlight Thursday – Tribute to Nellie
Spotlight Thursday
Welcome my friends to SPOTLIGHT THURSDAY. This is the time that I will introduce you to one of my fellow anipals so you can get to know them better. Some of them, you may already know. We hope that you enjoy this series!
NOTE: Dear friends, it is with a weary heart that we have to relay the news that Nellie passed over the Rainbow Bridge on April 14th. This is one of the last interviews that Nellie did and we so wanted to share it with you. So for today, let’s remember our feisty girl Nellie and please leave your comments for Nellie’s family for support ❤
Name: My name is Penelope, but my furrends calls mes Nellie or Nellie Bellie. And mes used to be (and still am sometimes) called The Cat From Hell.
Age: Us lady cats does not usually tells our age…but mes has been celebrating my birthdays on my blog for YEARS!!! Wes will be celebrating my 19th birthday on May 15.
Location: Me lives in Richmond, BC, but me has lived in Midway, BC, Calgary, AB, and Edmonton, AB. Mes has lived in 9 different castles.

What were your first thoughts when you met your new parents? Hmmm, that was so long ago and mes was so furry angry at peoples mes prefers to forgets. Mes was a totally terrible cat me bitted and scratched and was thoroughly unpleasant. And that is how mes gotted the name The Cat From Hell.
What was the defining moment when you knew you were in your forever home? After mes had been living there about six months mes started to sit in my Daddy’s lap…it was a long long time after that before mes would let my Mommy touch me. Now mes a cuddle bunny.
What has bee
n your biggest “Oh no, now I’ve done it” moment so far in your home? Purrhaps when mes climbed the shower curtain after mes jumped in the shower when mommy was having one…or shedding a whole sofa… or when mes gotted losted when wes was camping and spended a whole week in the wilds with the coyotes, the owls and the other wildlife…or maybe when mes locked Mommy and Daddy out of the truck, while it was running and the hairy slobbery sisters Bob and Sam and Kozmo were sleeping in the back seat…But the worst must be when mes shut down and deleted the Cat From Hell Blog.
Who do you have wrapped around your paws more – mom or dad – and why? Mes thinks mes has everybody who meets mes wrapped. Since mes started being nice, mes likes to kiss peoples!!! And my pawrents — mes them both wrapped! First though, mes was a total Daddy’s girl. But now mes lives with Mommy in Vancouver and Daddy lives in Midway and mes does not see him furry often.
What’s the biggest misconception that humans think about you? That mes is a cute and tiny sweet cat! Mes is 5 and a half pounds of HELL!

Hope you enjoyed meeting my friend – check back next week for another Spotlight edition!
Wags and Waves for Forrest Day
Welcome my friends to Wags and Waves for Forrest Day! This day was put together by our Auntie Sharon of Gentle Stitches. It’s a day created to help our friends Fozzie and her family at All Fur One and One Fur All in the loss of their anipal Forrest (06/06/2003 – 04/27/2016) who is now an angel watching over all of us here.
Today, we are wagging and waving our tails as a tribute to a great guy in support of his family who is going through a rough time – as you can imagine.
Please my friends – I hope that you support the cause and do a posting on your blog today for this cause. And if you get a chance, go visit Fozzie at All Fur One and One Fur All and let them know you are thinking of them. You can also use this awesome badge that Sammy from One Spoiled Cat created.
And here we are my friends – our participation to Wags and Waves for Forest Day. We know pal that you are watching over our Mouse Girl. ❤
My Sweet Nylablue
In Honor of My Sweet Nylablue
You may be gone but you are not forgotten. I close my eyes and smile. I dream of you running without pain or illness through the daisies chasing butterflies and looking so beautiful. When I’m silent and still in my toddler bed with my Egyptian cotton sheet around me, I can almost hear your purrs in my ear – just like old times. You were my first kitty girlfriend – my sweet purr thing – my snugglebug and you always will be the love of my life ❤
I think of you now watching over all of us that are still here. You touched my life in so many ways. You showed us how to keep fighting for life and things you wanted. You showed us love beyond what we could ever imagine. I was privileged to have you in my life – your love was an added bonus that I will *NEVER* forget. You will always be part of my heart.
I pray for your mom and send her loads of hogs and snout kisses. May she find some peace and remember that we all are here for her in her time of need.
We love you Sherri-Ellen!
