The Rudy Report

Ciao kitties! It's me - RUDY! with your Rudy Report! Tick and Tock are getting busy collecting walnuts for the winter and I enjoy watching them. I wish I could go outside and "help" them...
I think the hots have left O Hi O, we're all happy that they went somewhere else. Some of our leaves are turning colors and in the morning it's nice and cool. Mommy opens the door and wonderful smells come inside. Autumn rocks!
So - what's been going on? Our computer caught a terrible virus and it took a long time for our computer guy to figure it out. But he's very smart and finally got it fixed.
Our sitter was wonderful. As you may remember the 'rents left us to go to Lake Tahoe. When they came home both Mommy and Daddy were sick. Especially Mommy. She got to spend her vacation in their hotel room in bed. Daddy didn't get sick till the morning of the day they left. Good times kitties, good times...
Now they say they have to go back there to make up for the vacation that they took, but didn't have. Mommy says that someday she'll write about the worst. vacation. ever. on her Facebook page.

Some of our pals went to Blogpaws last weekend. We would have sent Mommy but she just got back from the worst. vacation. ever. and wanted to stay home with us. She's a cool 'rent like that. It looks like a good time was had by all! Maybe she can go to the next one and take a flat Parker or a flat Rudy with her.
Have a sweet Monday and take a nap for me, I need to get back to my Tick and Tock watch!

OoOOoOO- Pick Me - Pick Me!!!

Lookit'! There was a package for us in the bag of the guy with the bloo shorts! Mommy said it was from the nice people over at Purrfectplay - they sent us a box of their goodies so we can host some giveaway contests! I'll tell you this much kitties, there are some goodies in this box that you would definitely want for your very own.

For starters, there is this bag of mixed Dust Bunnies! If you want to see a better photo, please go here. I know about these because Mommy brought one home for us last April from Blogpaws and we never leave it alone. They are 'da bomb! They are organic and safe for us to play with, and your 'rents can wash and dry them.  Do you want to enter to win this great bag of fun? OK, here's what you need to do - go and visit Purrfectplay's blog and leave them a comment (tell 'em Parker sent you!)... I'll wait....Back? OK, now leave me a comment and we will draw a winner on Wednesday night from all of the comments. Easy Peasy, right?
Good luck to all of you. This is gonna' be so much fun!

Friends

In a rare photo of the 'rents behind the cats I present the following beans...Teri of Curlz and Swirlz, Carol of Meir Cats, Chats and Fiber; Sue of The Furry Bambinos, behind her is my 'rent, then Karen of Skeezix's Scratching Post and Robyn of House of the Hotties - a lovely group of beans if I do say so myself!

Hangin' With the Stars!

Skeezix's Food Lady is smart! She spoke about finding your voice on your blog.

Skeezix hung out with the cheesecake at lunch. I think he had too much mother's milk the night before! He stuck to water and iced tea at lunch. Mommy said lunch was very nommy and the speaker was great.

This lucky guy won some Skeezix swag for one of the drawings and he doesn't even have a cat! No fair!

More BlogPaws!

At one of the educational panels at Blogpaws Mommy saw Disco and Brighton in their Pink Catillac!

There was a place for all of the doggies to play and relax. There was no place like that for the kitties...

That's Mr. Tuck's Mommy on the right! She was in an educational panel too!

Here's the part where Mommy almost fainted - she caught her first glimpse of FLAT SKEEZIX! Wait 'till  tomorrow and you'll even see his food Lady!

Blogpaws Photos

Mommy heads off with some help from her NUVI.

She gets there with no trouble and registers!

There is so much to see and to learn!

She loved this booth and all of the organic goodies - go visit, they are at Purrfectplay the lady was very nice and gave Mommy some 'nip and a wool ball to play with (that I LOVE!)

Gorgeous art was all over the convention!

Mommy went to some of the educational panels, this one was how to publish a book in a digital world. Very interesting. And there were dogs and cats in the audience! Mom thinks that next year they are going to have the gathering in Denver! Tomorrow I will show you some of the friends that Mommy met!

Swagalicious!

Well kitties, Mommy had the best time at BlogPaws! She met some wonderful peeps and learned a whole lot of stuff for my blog. Lookit' all of the swag! She said it was like a playground for CCL's! AND she met some of my real live kitty bloggie pals! I think we are going to devote this week to the story. She took a lot of photos and you won't believe this...she met flat Skeezix AND the Food Lady! Yup - it's true!

What Well-Dressed Crazy Cat Ladies Are Wearing...

Lookit' that cute mug!

Today Mommy will leave our little corner of O Hi O for Columbus and the excitement that is BlogPaws! She's going to be wearing me (and a little of my furs) on her shirt. She promises lots of photos and a few Twitters too!

Blogpaws Bound

Even though I am not going to go with Mommy to BlogPaws tomorrow, I am looking forward to seeing a lot of photos to show me what it was like.

And I hear there might be swag, whatever that is! Mommy promised to tell everyone all about it next week. I hope that you kitties have a lovely Friday. It's one of the best days of the week!

Tattle Tail Tuesday

What's this?

A business card? MY business card?

Isn't that cool? I have my very own business card! Mommy had them made because she's going to Blogpaws on Saturday to see what's new in the world of blogging and maybe meet some of our friends! I am not going with her, I need to stay home and snoopervise Daddy while he plants more flowers. So kitties, do me a favor if you are going to be there - watch for the lady in a white T-shirt that has my face on it, it will be my Mommy and she would love to meet you. She's looking forward to hearing Skeezix and Tripper's mom speak!
