Ok, I know awards get passed around, but I've had most of these for a while without thanking those that gave them to me! As the young things would say "My Bad"! So since I have accepted them, it is only polite to post them for all to see.
I know there are rules schmools with some of them, but as President of NUCAT I question the need to fulfil the rules schmools without proper discussion and negotiation about rights and privileges!
Putting all that aside I am a grateful kitty - yes I'm full of grate - to have so many buddies.
Scroll through all the pretty pictures until you get to a lot of writing again. It'll be worth it! Honest! :)
From Nissy
(we are now at 136,000)
I accepted one recently from both Sammy from One Spoiled Cat and Dezi from Dezizworld. It is the Real Neat Blog Award. Thank you very much, both :)
Being born and brought up in the decidedly un-neat rural North Wales, I understand that "Real Neat" is a good thing! Real meaning "not imaginary" and Neat meaning "tidy" I'll take that! I'm definitely not a figment of The Staff's imagination and I like my things arranged just so.
There are seven questions to answer from each of the awarders, so I have combined them to make fourteen in all (you can never hear enough about me, right?) Though some might be answered by the pollexed personage - she is a person of a certain age!!!
From Dezi - my answers in red
1. Do you hav any nicknames? Yes and some are quite embarrassing and will only be divulged under duress! Mr Poo is the main one. Also The Boy, My Boy, Poopy and Whozabooful'ngorjusshandsomestkittyboy? *rolls eyes*
2. If so, what’s yous favowit, why and how did you get it? Well, not the last one that's for sure! I haven't interrogated the humans as to what strange mental processes they go through in order to come up with something like "Poopy"!!!
3. What’s yous favowit season and why? Summer, without a doubt. As I go outside and hunt and play with Tigger, my buddy.
4. Do you hav any siblings, and if so how many? I am an enigma. Nobody knows. I was a foundling.
5. Awe you da oldest or yungest? And do you fink you get tweated diffewent cuz of it? See answer to 4 above.
6. Do you hav a favowit tweat or dessert and what is it? Treat!!! Any make chicken and cheese, though since we've had the NUCAT campaign to change the name of treat, it is now officially a vitamin! ;)
7. Do you hav a favowit game or past time, and what is it? Apart from napping you mean? I quite like chatting to The Staff as she is a very good listener. However, my favourite pastime is playing with the knitting needle that the very old human in the house - my grandma - click click clicks with all the time. The noise makes me very antsy!! I love it. The human has to be careful that I don't get poked with it by mistake! AND I love being brushed the wrong way. I know! Crazy, isn't it!
From Sammy
1. If you could live anywhere in the world, where would you want to live and why? The Staff says, the Black Forest and I say here is just fine thank you :)
2. What’s your all time FAVORITE gift you EVER received? Tough one! There have been so many! I would say the last one I played with.
3. What scares you the most? Sudden loud noises like fireworks and the human coughing.
4. Do you think animals and humans reincarnate? No
5. Do you think there’s life on other planets? In the form of living sentient beings? No.
6. What’s your FAVORITE food? I really, really like fresh cooked chicken breast.
7. Do you enjoy OUTDOORS or being INDOORS the most? I like going outdoors, but I spend most of the time indoors as it's warm and that's where I get noms and where all my comfy napping places are.
ooh yeah, we have those really long indecipherable nicknames too. And no, we won't share them! HA!
ReplyDeleteConcats on the pletho-rama-award-ington!
Gosh Poopy...um... Austin! now we are all red with embarrassment! We have a plethora of awards that have never been acknowledged and which never will be acknowledge since our human can't remember who gave what and when and the rules and, and, and, as you can guess, said human gets easily discombobulated and can barely keep her head on her shoulders most days! Well done to you though and we thoroughly enjoyed your answers :)
ReplyDeletethe critters in the cottage xo
Concats on all those awards Austin. Those answers were interesting too, especially your nicknames. *snigger*

ReplyDeleteFirst of all, Lily says that she would be happy to get smooches from you as you are a most handsome, sophisticated and educated cat!. Those are lots of awards. Concats on receiving them. As you are a close furiend, Mau wanted to tell you that one of his nicknames is Turd Bucket, so don't feel too badly about that Poopy thing. mommy was chortling at your definition of sentient. That was her favorite. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

Concatulations on ALL those awards, Austin - you are one award-winning guy!
ReplyDeletePawsome answers dude and congratulations on your awards and well deserved. Have a wonderful Wednesday.
ReplyDeleteBest wishes Molly
Goodness My President, you really have been raking in the bling haven't you? Concatulations are in order I believe. Now, am I correct in that a BIG PILE of awards in one place at one time is referred to as an "Embarrassment" much like a big pile of crows is a "Murder" of crows and a big pile of cows is a "Herd" ???? Whatever - I'm just so thrilled to learn some of your unfavorite nicknames as I am sure they will come in handy should I ever decide to blackmail any of my friends........(just kidding.....maybe)!
ReplyDeleteHugs, Sammy
Sammy you are right, "Embarrassment" is the collective noun for awards like you say (well someone did) an embarrassment of riches! :) Gosh, don't we learn stuff MOL
DeleteConcats on your awards, Austin!
ReplyDeleteWhozabooful'ngorjusshandsomestkittyboy? Really?
Congrats on your awards Austin - we hate to say this but our Mum hates it when we get awards and is supposed to put them in our sidebar (whispers) so she just ignores them and does nothing with them)!
ReplyDeletePlease don't tell anyone.

That is quite a stash of awards, Mr. President! Our mom is all embarrassed that she stopped mentioning awards or doing anything about them. We think that's why no one gives them to her any more.
