Zimmer's First Birthday!

Today is Zimmer's first birthday!!! And I am so happy it's being spent here at the Casa! Ali is away on business but she provided us with good noms and festive acoutrements for the occasion. She said she'd like a pic of Zimmer in his birthday hat, and I really did try, but he was much more interested in playing with it than in wearing it. So we took this video instead. Success! Sorta! :-)

Zimmer and Kayla are being hosted in the basement suite and it's furnished with a couch and bed and rug and cat tree and stuff. Unfortunately, I paid no attention to background when setting up this shot... just looked for someplace to prop the camera and shoot... LOL!



My sincere apologies to Ali for calling Zimmer by his old name. He was Percy to me a lot longer than he's been Zimmer... that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it!

  2. Wow, one year old! Happy Birthday Zimmer/Percy! He's grown into a magnificent mancat, and looks so much like my Harley. Gotta love the ginger boys!

  3. Happy birthday Zimmer! That's a great video - and that hat looks like it would be fun to chew on!

    P.S. our mom says your background is much better than most of ours. She has to do a lot of cropping!

  4. yay, Zimmer/Percy is such a cutebug. Love it.

    (Our "Boy Named Sue" was named Zaire at the shelter. Yeah, that didn't fit)

    (and second PS, our little baby Grommycat is going in for easy surgery tomorrow morning.. off to bed so we can take him in early)

  6. Happy Birthday Zimmer! You were so very cute in the video, smooching up to your hat.

    P.S. Our mum gets confused with names. The other day she called Suey "Fui, Lishy, what's your name again?". Honestly! Hahahaha!

  12. Well, whatever name you call him by, it's obvious he's a sweetie. :-) He's such a big, handsome guy now, hard to believe it's been a whole year since he and his sibs were just teeny newborn fluffballs... still, happy birthday to him and Jasper and Ace and Miles, and best wishes for many happy returns!

  20. Hey guys I wanted to let you know there is a recall on Iams cat and kitten canned food - I am not sure what you are giving the little ones but I wanted to give you the heads up - we have a link at my blog if you want to see the whole FDA release.
