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.

Friday Flashback and Caturday Art.

This week I have three very short posts that were originally posted on consecutive days in August 2008. 

Toesies Tuesday - Whose Toesies?

I may go out in the garden and in the greenhouse, but I do keep my toesies nice and clean and sparkling white. I love tickle toesies so feel free to have a tickle if you want to, but do you know whose toesies these are? You have a 50/50 chance of being right after all.

Wordless Wednesday.

Thursday's Answers.
Flynn: I'm doing the talking today because Eric is a bit embarrassed about his toesies. For Tuesday toesies, we asked whose toes they were.Well of course they were nice and clean and white, so they had to be mine. This is what Eric's toesies look like when he comes in furrom the garden. He's not like me, he's very lazy about cleaning them. For our Wordless Wednesday post we had a photo of us in a snuggly nap pile with our Kitty Yumbum. Several of you didn't realise there were three kitties there. Kitty YB is at the back, Eric is at the front, and all you can see of me is a bit of my head on the left. We were four months old. Kitty Yumbum was only 6lbs, but quite a bit bigger than us back then. This is us when we were two. We had grown a lot bigger than Kitty Yumbum by then. Not long after this, she left us to go to the Rainbow Bridge. We all still miss her very much. You can read her story here.

What happy memories with Kitty Yumbum.

Eric, i don't blame you for not wanting to wash those paws so much, cleaning up isn't always fun.

Oh, my goodness, for some reason your nap pile pics brought a tear to my eye (and a smile) So sweet. And Flynn, yes, I guessed correctly those pristine toesies belonged to you. But I liked Eric's toesies too. As always, the catwork is so pretty. I hope Mom and Dad are doing well. Until next week...Jean

Fifty-fifty on the guess? I always lose fifty fifty so I guess that makes it "no chance" to get it right!

We are gonna guess it was either Eric of Flynn. And hoping you didn't bring a surprise kitty in there. ;)

Clean toesies!! You are granted the rights to come into our den and not get scolded for making it dirty. LOL!

Even in matters of hygiene, cats are individuals. And I didn't see a third cat in that pile until I read the text. What a wonderful life cats provide us with.

BOys, I am going straight there to read about her. And Mom said she isn't getting notifications so she's missed too many. But she's here now to catch up.
