Many Thanks



Happy New Year!

We want to start this year's post by
saying thank you to our friends!

Joan from Joan's mix max sent us these
ornaments. So pretty and elegant!


Butterfly is a giveaway gift and star is a bonus.
How sweet she is!


Thank you to Emily, Delilah, Sampson, Sophie, Sassy
& Caster from Kitty Cat Chronicles for the award!


Their posts are filled with inspiration
and lights. Always make us feel good :-)

kindly sent us this beautiful book!


It's about Lucky Cats (or Maneki Neko) and much
more. Thank you, Maggie, we love the book!


Lucky Cats/Maneki Neko are believed to bring
good luck with their beckoning paws.


Goro & Niko are certainly my lucky cats.

Goro brings laughter with his playful paws.
(And a trip over sometimes!)


Niko brings smile with his sweet kneading paws.


And they've brought you - wonderful blogging
friends! Glad they motivated me to start a blog,
even though I forget proper English spelling :-)


We wish all our friends a wonderful new year!

Goro

Niko

  1. Joan is a new follower of mine, only a few days. She is very generous, the star and butterfly are so beautiful! I love Goro and Niko pictures today!! The reading one is so cute! And the paw coming out to grab you. They are SO sweet, and frisky! They remind me of our two, Simba and Sunny. I did not know about the Lucky Cats. Cats themselves are lucky because they have 9 lives. Happy New Year!

  2. Happy New Year !!
    We purr you all have a great 2015.
    We like the ornaments and other goodies.
    We especially like the paw grab of the foot and biscuit making ;) MOL
    As for spelling, we think it is because we type too fast.
    We like the Chrome spell checker ;)
    Purrs Georgia and Julie,
    Treasure and JJ

  7. Dearest Tamago,
    What a lovely post with all the special gifts; love that book's illustrations and it looks like Goro is actually reading it!
    They do bring us many smiles and that sweet 'gotcha' where Goro touches your foot is precious.
    We love our furbabies and cannot imagine how some people can treat theirs so cruel.
    Sending you hugs,
    Mariette

  35. You two certainly are fun! We have not been by in too long and apawlogize but we have to cut back visiting due to Dads shoulder problems. He says he has only enough for work and then has to rest. We say "Quit already" but it does keep us in treats and noms so...maybe next year.
    Purrs from us all
    Happy Mew Year
