It's my 12th birthday today and I get to do whatever I want to all day! I'm napping in my wonderful screened-in porch and later I will get lots of treats! Thanks for all the nice birthday wishes on my previous post!
~~~~~
And for the first time I knew where Chey was on Friday and she featured me on her blog today! I am having such a wonderful, beautiful day!
I was tagged by Eric and Flynn
for the Six Unspectacular Quirks Meme in the beginning of August.
~~~~~
The Rules:
Link to the one who tagged you. List the rules on your blog. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours. Tag some blogger friends with links. Leave a comment on their blog to let them know that they have been tagged.

I've had a while to think about my quirks and here are six of them!
Maybe while I'm in here listing my quirks Willow will go into the red box top. This morning I think she gave me a look while I was sleeping in the red box top.
~~~~~
1. I like to be warm. Really warm. Daytime in the winter, I sleep in my heated cat cup
or at night in bed under the blankets with my Food Lady. She keeps me very warm, even on her lap. I also sleep on the back of the couch because there is a reading light that that is very warm on my face.
~~~~~
2. In the summer, I love to sleep in the sunshine. Even when it is over 100 degrees and humid. My Food Lady always makes sure I have cold water, sometimes with ice cubes in it too! When I have been out for a while, she makes me come in to cool off a bit and she calls me "Humidkitty".
~~~~~
3. When I drink water from the water bowl I always put my paw in it first. Then I dig on the floor in front of the bowl with both front paws. But I never lick the water off my paw - I just drink out of the bowl.
~~~~~
4. I like to lick Willow on the top of her head and sometimes I clean her ears for her.
~~~~~
5. I talk a lot. When anyone says, "China Cat" I always answer: mrrrrrrrrriiiip. My dad thinks that I chirp. I chitter at the birds outside my mom's office window. She put a bird feeder there so we can always chitter at lots of birds.
~~~~~
6. Whenever my dad goes to the front door, I run as fast as I can to the front door, chirping my mrrriiiip, mrrriiiip, mrrriiiip the whole time. Sometimes they laugh at my belly swinging back and forth as I run. But I don't mind because I know that when I get to the door, my dad will pick me up and just the two of us go out front and sit on the bench that is on the front porch.
~~~~~
Well, that's 6 quirks of mine and now I would like to tag Moe, who is a gorgeous ginger like me and his sister, Mindy, who has a lot of white fur like my sister, Willow!
It is Not The Mama Monday!This was proclaimed by the Cat Blogosphere!Mo is a wonderful person who cares so much for all kittiesand he is a "cat magnet" for kitties who need his help.In fact, Stinky Pete just came to Mo for help and you can read about him here.Thank you for all you do!~~~~~And, if you want to buy any gifts,or a little something for yourself,visit Not The Mama's store, The Wren's Nest.
When I come in the house after enjoying the sunshine in my screened-in porch, I like to stretch out on the cool kitchen floor.
Oh! You even took a picture of me stretching!
I always rotate my favorite sleeping places. My Lap Lady doesn't like it when I pick a new place and then she can't find me. Luckily for her, I usually keep returning to the same place for maybe a few weeks. Right now I like to sleep on the chair at the kitchen table. See how it has a nice cozy cushion on it.

This is a very sad day.
Little Violette Noelle will be laid to rest.
In memory of "Sprout" my blog is violet today.
Please keep Monty Q and his family in your thoughts
and as requested we will wear violet for Violette.
