Isn't it clever! Thank you Dezi xxxx
I have looked back over the years to see what else has been said about my coming to live at Chez Towers and I find to my horror that my gotcha anniversary has only been mentioned twice in all that time! Once, a year after I came, and then again last year!! Such disrespect!!
Anyway, a gotcha day can be a time for reflection and reassessment! And why not? Since I picked out the gullible kind person wandering through the cages at the RSPCA in Colwyn Bay and decided she looked a bit soft in the head lonely and in need of a furry companion, we have been inseparable ever since.
It is true that The Staff has needed a great deal of training and discipline over the years and I think she will always be a work in progress. There have been some memorable moments though and as so few people read my blog back in the day, we thought we mightregurgitate repost some of the earlier entries over the next few days so you can see how things were! Be warned! Things were rather different back then, as you will see!

Well, that's totally unacceptable that she forgot, Austin! You deserve extra extra treats! Happy Gotcha Day...a little late.
ReplyDeleteHappy Gotcha Day, Austin! I know The Staff loves you very much anyway. Nice card from Dezi.

STILL love your definitions, Austin and HAPPY GOTCHA DAY handsome boy! I hope this is a day with treats, extra scritches and petting as long as you demand it. You deserve it. XXXOOO
ReplyDeleteAwww I am so happy you picked that kind person wandering through the cages at the RSPCA! Reposting some earlier entries will be fun... looking forward to it. I got a little teary reading that second paragraph under Dezi's sweet card but I got hold of my tearyemotional self. Happy Gotcha Day Mr. Austin and Staff... ♥
ReplyDeleteHappy Late Gotcha Day. Humans are always a work in progress it seems haha
ReplyDeleteHappy Gotcha Day! And yes, we too have ongoing training issues with our Mom. Hoomins... not the brightest bulbs out there, you know.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Gotcha Day!!! I can't believe your mom forgot :(
ReplyDeleteWhat?!! Shouldn't that be some kind of criminal offence, forgetting your gotcha day?
ReplyDeleteAnyhoo, we are breaking out the streamers and blowing our party favours over here to wish you a very Happy Gotcha Day Austin. Have a good one ;)
Dip and Elliot x
DANG! Happy Gotcha Day Austin from all of us!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy unintentionally belated gotcha day, Austin!
ReplyDeleteIt's amazing how much we cats need to train these humans, isn't it??
ReplyDeleteHappy gotcha day pal. I think we both have good staff, but they sure do not like to follow the rules. Half the time M forgets my birthday and gotcha day. At least we get our 3 square meals a day and stuff like that.
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Gotcha Day, buddy ! Training humans is an endless work... Purrs
ReplyDeleteAustin happy belated Gotcha Day. Don't worry our Mom has forgotten us numerous times. Some of we understand because she didn't find too much to celebrate after losing Abby and Gracie and well she just lost some of her mind during that time. We are so glad that your Asst remembered even with assistance from Dezi!
ReplyDeleteHappy belated Gotcha Day!
ReplyDeleteMaybe because she feels like you have just always been there, I know I don't remember a time before my kitties
ReplyDeleteOh Austin, weez so glad you got gotted. And yous "staff" is purrfect, after all you picked her and she luvs you sooooooo much. Weez so glad to be yous furiends. Have a pawsum gotcha month. You know we celebwate all month long.

ReplyDeleteOh, fun! Can't wait to read those regurgitated posts!
ReplyDeleteHappy Gotcha Day, Austin! I'm assuming she's furiously working on making this up to you, preferably in the form of treats!
One more thing: We are so happy to know you and your mum and Tigger and even Mini Me! We really appreciate your friendship!
DeleteHappy Belated Gotcha Day to you Austin!!!
ReplyDeleteHappy Homecoming Day Austin!
ReplyDeleteWell Happy Gotcha Day to you Austin! We are so happy you ended up with the Staff that you did, we know you are too, even if you play hard to get (wink)! However, we do believe you are entitled to some extra Num-Nums and treats given the near-miss of the Gotcha :)
ReplyDeleteWe can't wait to see some of those older posts. You aren't the only one who had their Gotcha Day forgotten. It happened to Isabella too. Maybe you should call a meeting of N.U.C.A.T. At least Cat Scouts (and Dezi) did not forget your day. She always makes the cutest cards. Happy Gotcha Day, friend Austin. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

Happy Gotcha Day! Dezi sent you a cute card :) I hope your Mom makes it up to you.
ReplyDeleteHappy (belated) Gotcha Day!!!!!! Dezi's card was great! The Staff does love you and we think you do love her down deep. I am sure she will spend the rest of the week making it up to you :)

Happy Belated Gotcha Day! Did you know that I wasn’t even mentioned in my first even post and there wasn’t a photo of me until like the 5th post? Love the Blingee!
ReplyDeleteThe Human finally got around to reading your Mousebreath interview. What was she waiting for? Maybe their concept of time is more elastic than ours. Hard to understand, really, when our excellence and pre-eminence is so obvious. At least we have each other.
ReplyDeleteHappy Gotcha Day, Austin! PUUUURRRR! Well, we have to forgive the hoomans sometimes, don't we? They mean well but they're only hoomans after all. =^..^=
ReplyDeletePurrz!

Well, we hope you had a wonderful gotcha day, even if she forgot to post about it, Austin! That's humans for ya. Here's hoping you get lots of extra treats in the coming days as she tries to make up for it. ;)
