Granny, who’s that little girl in the picture…

she’s cuddling me, see…

Marlene

I can’t remember I let somebody pet me besides you and grandpa lately…

What you say?

It isn’t me?

Binky memories

..are you sure… of course it’s me…

She has the same pattern as I have…

Binky remembering

..see…

IMG_0164

Granny, what.. really…

that girl is you… when you were a little girl…

and that cat was somebody else’s cat…*that sounds familiar…*

and would have been 44 by now…

44 what, granny…. lightyears…?

Binky herinneringen

Ah, human years… but granny, then she could be me,

after all I’m almost 10… that’s about 44 and a bit, isn’t it?

IMG_0222

Woh.. and then 4 times more…

What’s the name of the cat? That’s a nice name…Mickey.

And she came back 3 conse-what, consecutive days

to get cuddles and milk

and then she went home and you haven’t seen her ever after?

Binky remembering

Granny, what’s it about you and female cats with male names..

we’re all ladies, isn’t that obvious?

IMG_0228

I like this memorie-stuff… but now we have to do some currently things again. Wait a minute, I have to wash myself first.

Ok, I’m ready. We were nominated again for a few awards. I think we’re very lucky this year, with all the awards we already have gotten and every time when we get a new award, we’re really excited and happy and even if we already have the award, Granny gets a smile on her face and I’m rolling from one side to the other.. Granny calls me roll hering when I do that….

why-i-love-thee-award

This Award is given to us by Princess Zena and she really makes us laugh by telling her stories and about her pal Raffles. Zena has a very expressive face, when you see her, you can’t refuse her anything. Thank you Princess, We love thee too 🙂

The rules for the Why I Love Thee Award are:

Thank the one who gave it to you, post the award, tell everyone why you love someone and then nominate a friend or friends and pass it on.

I love my Granny and Grandpa, because they feed me, cuddle me, pet me, nurture me, let me lie on Grandpa’s my couch, so that he has to sit somewere else, let me lie on Grandma’s my pillow, so that she has to lie down next to the pillow, because they let me in when I’m running inside out about… 44 times in the evening and because they never leave me alone. I love thee both very much, because you’re always there for me.

Binky herinnering

Next on the list are two awards from our friend Terry: the Beautiful Blogger Award and the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. Thank you Terry for both the Awards. We already have the Inspiring Award, but now we’re beautiful also 🙂

Terry’s blog is wonderful, we love her poems, they’re very funny and realistic, but she does more. Check out her blog and let she surprise you.

I have to hurry, ’cause Valentinesday is on its way, but I can’t find the card.

Granny do you know where my card is? Please help me to find it in time… please granny, my friends are waiting…

It´s not to late… it´s only an hour before midnight…

and it´s never to late to show your love, you said so yourself.

Angels place

I love the sun. When the sun is shining I lay down myself for hours in the garden.

When Granny comes home from shopping, I make rolling overs’ from one side to the other and meow of joy. I like to make my Granny happy 🙂

I hear grandpa coming home from work, even if he’s not  nearby the house yet . I jump out of bed and wait for him on the stairs, so Granny knows too that he’s on his way… Oh, you know it also… sorry, Granny, I forgot you’re a cat too 😉

Binky babysitterNow,  that was easy. What’s next?

Right.. the nomination for this special candle award. In the first place I would say, for all my friends, but I have to do a selection and believe me, that’s very difficult, because we like all of the blogs we follow, but we have some new friends, who we like to introduce if you don’t know me/them by now.

much better than my Granny…

Afb059

you see…

Ok, I’ll stand up now and will do some announcements.

Here we go…

Binky vertelt

A few friends have nominated me and my Granny again for some very beautiful awards. I’ll mention them in order of succession..

Princess Starlight Zena nominated us for The Liebster Award..

I know, I know, I have it already, but this one is different from the other Liebster, look at this one…nice huh?

liebster award

And these are the Liebster rules:

1. Thank the giver and link back to the blogger who gave it to you > done!
2. Share five things about yourself > done
3. Answer five questions presented by Princess Zena.> done

6. Copy and paste the award on your blog>done.
7. Hope that the people you’ve sent the award to forward it to their five favorite up-and-coming bloggers and keep it going!> hoping!

1a.  Thank you Princess Zena for the nominee, so much appreciated and you’re so adorable.

2a.1. I’m very picky about my food and I can make a mess of it, when I don’t want to eat something. How I do it? I water my paw and let it sink in the food.

2a.2. I’m very selective in my friendships, I only want to be with my Granny and Grandpa, without any intruders.

2a.3. I’m a night reveller since the snow came into my life . I don’t like the whiteness all around and I don’t like the cold, so I have to go out late in the evening or to buy myself a pair of sunglasses and snowboots.

2a.4. I’m sleeping on my Granny’s pillow and on her head, than she gets awake more often at night, so that she can cuddle me.

2a.5. I’m the first one who’s waken up in the morning and than I begin to scratch the bed. Granny says I’m ruin her bed, but it’s not my fault that I can’t get my claws out of the fabric.

Ok, that was five. What’s next?

Answer 5 questions of the Royal Highness. Ok, let me think:

P1030480

1. The naughtiest thing I’ve ever done was drinking outside of standing water that smelled like a slurry pit and there were little living creatures inside of it… so it wasn’t standing water after all, I guess…

2. I’m sometimes a little bitchy, but that runs in the family, so in answering to this question, I wouldn’t change anything about myself.

3. My perfect vacation would be at home with my Granny and Grandpa and my daily routine, but with lots of sun. I like sunbathing, you know.

4. The hardest thing I ever had to do was to say goodbye to Granny’s Angel and my best friend Big Binky.

5. If I could go back and change something of the past I would change my name…… in BinkyPuzz’n’boots.

Binky Liebster AwardNow up to the next point. I have to make 5 questions for my nominees…

1. When are you the most active and when are you the laziest most inactive?

2. What would you do, when you have to take care of your own dinner?

3. Do you believe in angels and furryland?

4. What would you do if you had wings?

5. How do you show your affection?

zwartwit21

Phew… that wasn’t easy… but …..I did it.

And now my five nominees are:

Kirby

Bailey

Panorama of thoughts

Texas

All that JazzCat

This is the end of part one…

but the good news is…there’s a lot more to come 🙂

Join me next time on part two and remember furryfriends, you are free to accept the award or just be happy with the nomination.

P1030518

See you next time. Pawkiss from me 🙂

Granny’s new friends

Binky keukenGranny, what are you doing with all the bread?

CAM00214

Oh, you’re gonna feed the geese and duckies …and chicken..

oh, no chicks..

waterhens and coots..

Binky keuken

Granny, yesterday there were two waterhens on the shed, they were hungry too, but when I wanted to give them food, they flew away.

Binky

No, granny, I don’t tell fibs..

Why I’m licking my mouth?

Binky aanrecht

No, not because I’m thinking of the waterhens, but…

Binky keuken

because I finished eating the crumbs you left me, that’s all.

Binky aanrecht

Ok, I get off the sink.

Binky keuken

What, can’t I come to feed the duckies and geese? Why not?…

Of cause they’ll come even if I’m around, they won’t bite me…

Binky keuken

are you sure they’re bigger then me.it’s to cold for me outside..

well, in that case, I’ll wait for you at home and tell my (furry)friends about our new feathered friends.

This is the place my granny goes almost daily lately to bring our feathered friends something to eat.

They’re starving since winter  did appear.

When they see her coming in the far distance, they begin to  croak and run towards her…(this picture was made while biking, so it’s not very sharp)

eenden en ganzen

they already know it’s granny…

eenden en gans

and they’re sitting on her feet, between her legs and she’s talking with them…

eendjes

she has to, because otherwise they jump on each other to get some food…

ganzen

but she tells them that she has enough for all of them…

eenden en ganzen

and they seem to understand,

eenden en ganzen

because they’re waiting patiently…

eenden en ganzen

and when they’re not, she tells them to take it easy and guess what… they’re all standing still. Amazing, isn’t it 🙂

gans en eenden

And this one is a special one. He’s following granny the whole time, untill she leaves and is trying to get her attention and when he doesn’t get it, he is picking on her. She thinks he’s a beauty with expressive blue eyes….

Binky

I think he’s the golden goose, I mean, the goose with the golden eggs..

Granny, maybe he is a she…

No, I’m not jealous… not at all…

ganzen en eenden

When the food is finish, granny tells the feathered friends that she’ll be back and tells them that they have to go inside of the water now, because otherwise they’ll be freezing…

and then they go, running or flying into the water and she wents home…

Binky

where I am waiting for her under the table almost frozen to death

Oh, not outside.. I mean..

Binky slapen

…inside on the window-still and acting as I was asleep all the time…

Binky

Well, I’m a little sleepy still now, but I  just want to say one thing more.

If it’s freezing outside, our feathered friends don’t have anything to eat. Besides they’re feeling cold, they’re starving. It’s necessary to feed them supplementary. They’ll be thankful at you and you make new friends and in time I take the eggs 😉

Help is needed.. don’t stay inside… like me...

Binky schoot

Granny, I need some cuddling now…purrrrrrr…

and purrr to grandpa for making the photo’s 🙂
