Ayla has gone to the Rainbow Bridge

Rainbow Bridge friends: Ana, Oscar, Ubee and Brendan

The Cat Blogosphere has lost many good friends this week - Ana, Oscar, Ubee and Brendan.

We miss you furry much.

Introducing Chloe

One of Jasmine's friends adopted an adorable baby poodin called Chloe. Here she is with her littermates. Chloe is the one in the middle. Jasmine said Chloe reminds her of a baby Cheezcat!

Introducing Miro's sisfur, Tiffany

Here is Little Tiffany, Miro's sisfur. Isn't she such a sweetie?

Hi Poodins. I'm Tiffany. Furry nice to meet you.

This is me with my brofur, Miro. He's helping me wash my furs. He is furry good to me, I love him furry much.

I love to play with the tinkly ball on a string.

It makes funny noises when a catch it!

Sometimes the tinkly ball gets tired, so I let it have a rest.

Hey, you with the clicky flashy box. What are doing?

Furry nice meeting you all. Thanks for visiting.
Miro says come back anytime.

Miro

About a year about I introduced you to Little Miro who lives with Jasmine's friend. Miro was an adorable little furbaby, and now he's grown up into a furry handsome mancat.

Miro doesn't have his own blog, but I think he wants one because he keeps sitting on his bean's computer.


Miro enjoys all the usual poodin activities, such as snoopervising his bean...


... snoozing...


... snoozing in a slightly different position...


... and hanging with his sisfur, Tiffany (more about lovely Tiffany later).

7 Random Facts

I'm furry excited because I got tagged by the West Terrace Cats from Just Open the Can!

Here are the rules. You need to list 7 random things about yourself and then choose 7 other cats to tag. Email them to let them know they've been tagged and need to read your blog for details. Have Fun!

1. I like to be around people, but I'm not so interested in sitting on them or being picked up. I prefer to sit near them and receive pats.
2. I love pats more than food.
3. I like to pretend I'm a wild jungle kitty in the backyard.
4. Sometimes when the sun shines on me, my shiny furs look dark brown instead of black.
5. I want to be friends with efurryone. Even non-cat people who tell me to go away - I still try to say hello to them because I'm such a friendly poodin.
6. My meowing is more like yelling than talking. I am quite loud and very conversational. Jasmine asked me if I have any Siamese relatives because apparently this is a common trait amongst meezers.
7. I'm all black except for a tiny white spot on the inside of my left ankle.

Now I tag the following 7 poodins:
Tanjiro & Uschi Swirl
Tucker, Badness & Scrappy
Oscar
Myoo

Tiggy testing out the new camera phone

Jasmine's mum just got a camera phone, and guess who was the subject of the first photo? Little Tiggy, the senior catizen of course.

Introducing Champers

This gorgeous ginger girl is Miss Champers. She lived next door to Jasmine many years ago.


The story of how they met is kinda funny, so I'm gonna tell you about it. One day Jasmine thought she heard someone at the front door, so she opened it. There was no bean there, but when she looked down Jasmine saw a lovely ginger poodin. The poodin just waltzed past Jasmine and into the house and if it was her own...

Champers (after walking a few metres into the house...): "Huh? Hang on a sec, this isn't my house!"

Jasmine: "Hello there lovely poodin. I'm Jasmine. Who are you?"

Champers: "Um, I'm confused, um, I mean, I'm Champers."

Jasmine: "Very nice to meet you. Where do you live?"

Champers: "I thought I lived here, but now that I'm inside I can see that this isn't my house. It does look a lot like my house though."

Jasmine: "I can see you are wearing a collar with a tag. Would you like me to check your tag for a phone number? I could contact your mum for you."

Champers: "Yes please."

[Jasmine then sent a text message to the number on Champers' tag: "Hi there. A gorgeous orange kitty has just wandered into my house. My address is..."]

*ring* *ring*

Jasmine (on the phone): "Hello. Jasmine speaking... Yes, she's here and she's fine... I thought I heard something at the door, and when I opened it, there she was, and she just waltzed straight in... Oh, you're just next door? You've just moved in? This group of townhouses look similar from the outside, I guess she just got confused which was her house... See you shortly..."

This was the beginning of a wonderful friendship between Champers and Jasmine. Champers visited Jasmine regularly after this (much to Jasmine's delight) until Champers' mum bought an apartment elsewhere and moved away. Jasmine hasn't seen Champers since then (over 4 years ago), but she still thinks about Champers and still misses her.

Purring for Lilly Lu

Miss Lilly Lu is furry sick and we are all purring furry hard for her. Please get better furry, furry soon Miss Lilly Lu!

Two white poodins

Jasmine visited some speedcubing friends last night. The bean at whose place they were meeting has two poodins, a white poodin and an almost-white poodin. She forgot to take pictures of the poodins, so I can't properly introduce them to you. This was silly of her because one of my favourite things to do on this blog is introduce new poodins!

In case you didn't know, speedcubing means solving the Rubik's cube really fast. It's Jasmine's favourite hobby. She loves Rubik's Cubes almost as much as she loves kitties! Jasmine was furry happy last night because she got a new best solve time: 19.53 seconds!

Some small changes to my blog

Thanks to all the poodins who left nice messages on my 100th post. Furry much appreciated!

I've made some small changes to my bloggie recently. The linkies list of blogging poodins was getting furry long, so I decided to convert it to one of those expandable lists, like Hot(M)BC's has. I try to keep the linkies up-to-date, but if there's anyone I've missed, please let me know and I'll fix it!

I've also adopted a Virtual Maukie. She is sitting in the sidebar underneath the profile box. She likes to play, so if you wiggle the mouse cursor around her, she'll try to catch it! She likes pats too. If you pat her head she'll meow, and if you pat her tummy she'll purr. She's such a nice little kitty.

I've been thinking about updating the template for this site too. Problem is that it's such a big task, much more than just modifying what's already there. Might keep thinking about that one...

One hundred posts!

I'm furry excited because this is the 100th post on Fluffy Feline Friends!

I've met so many nice poodins and beans through the cat blogosphere. It's been so wonderful to see how much love and support all the poodins and their beans give to each other. We've loved reading all the stories, celebrating the good news, and helping poodins through things like Artsy Catsy's Mu Shue Bookmark Benefit and sponsoring Ramona's Top Cats. We've also been touched by the sad news and hope that the purrs we send out help even just a little bit.

One of the most wonderful things for me was helping find a furrever home for Mr Crumples. I'm so happy that my little bloggie helped find a good home for a poor abandoned poodin.

Purrs to all my poodin friends, and thanks for making the cat blogosphere such a wonderful place!

Introducing Bear

Jasmine made a new furry friend last week. His name is Bear and he lives with one of Jasmine's workmates. He's big, black and floofy, and he reminds me of our Catifornian poodin friends Grr, Midnight and Cocoa.

Bear is furry friendly. His people told Jasmine that even 'non-cat people' (yes, they do exist!) are won over by Bear pretty quickly because he's so lovely and so friendly.

Tiggy the Senior Catizen

This is Tiggy, whom I introduced to you last year. She is furry, furry old. Tiggy was a stray that Jasmine and her family adopted when Jasmine was a little bean, so we're not sure exactly how old she is.

Tiggy still lives with Jasmine's parents. She has a comfortable life and is furry well looked after. The v-e-t says she is doing furry well for such a senior kitty!

Happy Blogaversary to Kat's Cat of the Day

Happy Blogaversary to Kat's Cat of the Day. Thanks for honouring us grown-up poodins!

Introducing Alex

This is Alex. He lives on a farm with friends of Jasmine. You can't really tell in this picture, but Alex is a very big kitty. Definitely a Big Man Cat. He has many adopted brofurs and sisfurs at the farm and they are all BIG kitties.

Y'know how if you put goldfish in a big pond then they grow big, but if you put them in a little fishbowl then they stay small? Well, Jasmine wondered if kitties do the same thing because all the kitties at this farm have lots and lots of space and they have all grown into big kitties.

The human girl from the farm moved into the city and adopted some kitties, and those kitties have all stayed small (compared to the farm kitties).

What do you think? Any farm kitties out there have an opinion on this issue?

Artsy Catsy bookmark for Mu Shue

Here's the pretty bookmark we bought from Artsy Catsy for the Mu Shue Bookmark Benefit last month.

The nice poodins and beans at Artsy Catsy volunteered to make lots and lots of these pretty poodin bookmarks to raise money for Mu Shue's treatment.

If you missed out on the Mu Shue bookmarks, don't worry, you can still buy one and donate to another good cause. Artsy Catsy are making more of these lovely kitty bookmarks and donating part of the proceeds to the Best Friends Animal Society.

Introducing Emma

This nice lady poodin is Emma. She lives with Jasmine and Peter's friends in Hawaii. When Emma and her beans lived in Australia many years ago, Jasmine and Peter used to poodin-sit her and her baby poodin, Loki, and her adopted brofur, Charlie.

Emma is a tiny little poodin, even though she is a grown-up poodin. She is also furry sophistocated and only drinks out of a martini glass (which contains water, not a martini).

I like this chair. I think I will give it a headbutt.

What is that flashy thing doing in my face!!
