Paprika suspended in Air

I, Paprika, specialize in Leap Years.  In fact I'm an expert.  My nickname is "Long Legs" Paprika.  Here I am, showing off one of my favorite leaps, suspended in air....my human is looking for a picture of my sis-fur, Peaches, doing a leap.  she may be looking a long time, though, since Peaches is not near as nimble as me!

Being as how this is a special artsy picture (we used the software "Painnt" and the leap is my  own), we are joining Athena & Marie's Cat-ur-day Art Hop.

Meowy Gras Parade - Friends of Peaches & Paprika


https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=peaches+and+paprika+channel+mardi+gras&view=detail&mid=93C57AE7A2FE35B76BBA93C57AE7A2FE35B76BBA&FORM=VIRE

CLICK ON PICTURE TO SEE SHOW!
We thought for the occasion we'd parade out all our furrriends in this --- just to show we HAVE friends! (MOL) from the MEOWY GRAS video our human made last year. We hope you enjoy our multi-cat show as we think these are pawesome cats! Sadly little Oliver who appears here is no longer with his owner!  

Happy Meowy-Gras 2020




Happy Meowy-gras to my many fur-riends from yours truly, Turquoise Peaches.  As I advised my human, I am always up for the opportunity to entertain, though I was little fearful of this new color, "turquoise."  My human told me it was very becoming, though, and bribed me with some rindstone jewelry to wear with it. I am to be addressed as "Queen" just for today. Still, you can see, the rather disapproving, may even scowling look on my face. I'm still getting used to this "Turquoise" stuff!
I don't know how, but I truly lucked out here! Usually Peaches gets these "Ruler of the Night" gigs, because of her stuck-up regal attitude, but I convinced my human to let me take the reins for this one occasion.  For tonite only, I rule! Pay no attention to any other cats. Look into my amber eyes...Respectfully submitted, Paprika the cat


Happy Meowy-gras to all our furrriends!

World Bartender Day - Bonanza for Katz

Happy World Bartenders Day. We have been chosen to be the only MEOW-tenders in our area today, a great honor. But can Peaches get with the program? NOooo. I told her the holiday is meant to HONOR bartenders who serve & ENTERTAIN OTHERS. Of course Peaches thinks the holiday is all about HER and is already zoned out on some Catnip wine she found. KATZ! - Paprika, World Bartender Cat.

Paprika's Sunday Selfie in Meow-garitaville

Good morning, Paprika here.  For my ultimate selfie, I pushed my greedy sis-fur, Peaches, out of our MEOW-GARITA dual photo yesterday, because I am WAY cooler than she.  I know such an act may be illegal, but it give me a Sunday Self-ie beyond reproach.  As you can see I am STILL celebrating MEOW-Garita Day. This will continue all weekend!  And by the way my a-PAW-logies for my human mis-spelling Meow-garita in my photo. I took the photo myself but she put in the writing.

We are joining The Cat On My Head's Sunday Hop today!!!

Pie-eyed on MEOW-garita Day


It's Meow-garita Day and yet another excuse to celebrate!  We were told that the catnip meowgarita we're consuming is different from Human Margarita but we are feeling NOooo pain.

Peaches:  Well I, Peaches can complain.  Paprika has a traditional GREEN drink and mine is orange.
Paprika:  That's cuz you got here LATE, Peaches. Now start drinking!

Our human made the graphic today with photoshop, lunatic,  er Luna-pic, including the showering hearts effect and picmonkey.  And a few margaritas...Though the day is self-explanatory, more National Margarita Day info can be found here!




We are joining Athena and Marie for Caturday Hop Day!  Hola!!!!!

Ear Wash: Random Acts of Kindness Day


Paprika here! So I really lucked out on this day because I got an EAR WASH from Peaches.  If that's not a random fact of kindness I don't know what is.  You can read all about this holiday HERE!   Also if you

Love Cats Slideshow 2020

CLICK ON PICTURE TO WATCH this little show!  It will be worth it! Here is the annual slideshow our human ignores us to make for our Facebook Friends.  They love being stars,  but WE do NOT love being TWO out of FIFTY!  We will be glad when its all over and she can pay more attention to US.  But at least we got to appear in a couple of slides.  Three bloggers are also in the show...it's a surprise. Can you find them?

We are joining  Athena and Marie's Cat-urday Hop and The Cat on My Head's Sunday Hop this weekend, as our human is getting old fast and making slideshows takes her fur-ever!  We wish she'd hurry up and recover!

Cattitude Contest Winners - 2020 "Oskat" Awards

It was a tough decision with 100 cat entries, all with dynamic cat-titude.  Finally, they were narrowed down to 18 and after much agonized debate our Facebook friends voted.  There was an additional contest for most acrobatic too.  Allie Spiegenhalter of Friends FurEver blog was the proud winner of the Acrobatics division after scaling the heights of an attractive cabinet.  


First prize winner , MUFFIN got a Peaches & Paprika 2020  calendar and the congratulations of over 20 friends. tThe runners up got, well, lots of glory and compliments.  But it was a fun evening for all,  We think cats SHOULD compete EVERY year for our own OS-KAT awards.

Little Red Peaching Hood - Honoring Wear Red Day





I've always longed to be Red Riding Hood, even though I have to put up with being called "Peaching Hood..."  It's all good.  I am celebrating Wear Red Day which honors heart health and is the first Friday in February and you can read all about it and honor it by clicking the link.



Meanwhile, I innocently played may rightful role as Little Red Peaching Hood, only to learn that there is a WOLF in this story with big teeth  I meandered through the woods, basket in hand and entered a little cottage...well you can see what happened!  You never know what kind wolf  you will find....Cod knows what will become of me now!!!!
--Peaches the Cat

Note: Our human decided our story is artsy enough to join Athena and Marie for their Cat-urday hop!  Our human created my costume herself with photoshop.  She refused to tell me how Paprika ended up being the Big Bad Wolf. Woe is Me, Paprika's really sharp teeth. This is a Cat-lamity.

Kicking Up Our Heels at the Snooperbowl




We got the cheerleader jobs!  I have to admit we DID get carried away at the Super Bowl this year.  The Kitten Bowl didn't quite satisfy our need for adventure, so we got a better gig:  SNOOPERBOWL CHEERLEADER SUPER-CATS!  We use KNEW we'd find adventure this year at the snooper bowl...a bonanza for cats!  We got so excited we began to rise in the air...

SUPERBOWL CAT FANTASIES



Our human told us this was just a dream but when we arose this morning, Peaches was convinced we'd be Super Bowl Snoopervisers!

Later we learned our Purr-ticipation may be confined to the Kitten Bowl.  Mouses!!!

Later, we reconciled ourself to the realistic option of being in the Hallmark Kitten Bowl and we applied immediately

Here is our portrait, and we posted our trading cards below! 
Peaches "hot spot" is "being admired" whereas Paprika's joy is "Scaling the Heights." Nickname:  Paprika long legs.


Peaches' Trading Card



Paprika's Trading Card



You can join the kitten bowl if you haven't already by clicking on the link above.

Last but not least, we want to give you a memory flashback to a previous Super Bowl when we cats were not as cautious as now.  We were actually Fearless Feline Broadcasters!
