We are ginger and white brothers and enjoy sharing our adventures together walking in the fields. Sadly Eric left for the Rainbow Bridge on 19.03.2013. I joined my brother on 1st May 2017 so now we are together again for all time.

Relaxing in the Garden.

We have been keeping out of mum's way today. She is not happy!
If mum isn't happy, it's safest to go out in the garden.
We purrtended we didn't hear all the bad words.
She had got the photos of us in boxes and put in a file together for Box Friday. She had some spare time this morning so she thought she would do the post and schedule it, so she turned the pooter on ready. Nuffin! Nope, nuffin at all! The pooter has died!
Luckily she had backed most of her photos and everything else to flash drives. She had done it to the middle of May so no big disaster.At least she could get them on her laptop. Trubble was she had to go through all her photos again to find us in boxes then put them into another file. You can bet your life she backed that file up right away. We gave her lots of purrs and it seems to have calmed her down. We learned lots of new words for the bad word list though.

Nothing like a bad puter to bring out the bad words from the beans.

It's a good idea for us kitties to stay out of mom's way when the computer is malfunctioning.

Mom says you just reminded her that she needed to back up her photos.

Oh no, having a broken computer is no fun at all. Mom would probably says lots of words on the bad words list too. We hope the computer gets fixed soon.

It is always good to avoid humans when the computers die! Glad she is smart and backs up her files. Mom created out post and attempted to schedule it and accidentally deleted it! At least she has the pictures in a file.

Mom's office commuter got deaded but good by some thunderboomies last month. Fortunately, Mom's office is at the swamp so if she said any bad words, we did not hear them.

Glad your Mom is a good backer-upper like our Mom!

I don't blame your Mom fur being upset like that! I have tons of pictures, too, and it takes lots of time to go through them all.

I love the pictures of you guys in the garden, though, especially the last picture -- that's quite the pose Eric (or is that Flynn). I always get you two mixed up.

Oh your mum mum she must of had a fit when she saw that happen. I am so glad she had them backed up. Dad keeps saying to mum back all those pictures up. Mum read this and said I will do it today.

Computer's are evil but resistance is futile! Gotta have'em, eh? You boys did right to make yourselves scarce, tho'. I'm glad to see you're puttin' on a fine showing of pudge today!

You guys are so gorgeous! Of course, we are very biased because you two and Audace and Ruse are the spittin' images of one another!! =)

And aren't 'puters the pits sometimes? We have a 250 GB back-up drive (Seagate), but don't have it set up to automatically back things up. I guess it's time for us to do so manually. We'd all sure hate to hear a slew of bad words around here!! Poor little tender kitty-ears!

We hope she found your box pics and look forward to tomorrow.

We're glad your mum had all the pics backed up recently at least - or she would have really been mad!! You boys look good in the garden!

Wow that is a reason to go and play in the garden. We fell bad for your Mom that her puter died on her.

Oh, your Mom uses bad words too when something goes wrong with the computer. It was a good thing you were out in the garden. My Mom had a hard time trying to find our box pictures too. She had to go through the CD's that she backed them up on.
