thank you everyone! thank you for not forgetting about us while we had some time off. it was good, and what we needed. mom's still having a bit of a hard time...and i'm still loving on her lots.
i've been 'secret paw'ed, received suzanne's secret paw, gotten extra presents, and mom has realized i just want to eat friskies stinky goodness like i used to.
in the food department, i've gotten to practice the 'back of disdain'. it's taken awhile to train her. even so, i'll give her credit for opening so many cans of stinky goodness to tempt me. even with her lack of delicate scent awareness, i know she didn't like the smell much more than i did. (heh)
we didn't do much in the picture department over the past week. mom does wish she had snapped a few of my sprawling on my back with my tummy relaxed and soft (not engaging in bunny-kicking warfare). she says this is a good step as i haven't sprawled on my back in several months.
mom ordered her new old lady camera on monday and it should be here next monday. it has 'image stabilization' so the pictures should be clearer. a friend at work is buying the old young lady camera. (heh)
on to the pictures we did take:
my new zoom groom. the 'teeth' are soft, so there are no more gouges in my tender skin. i love this...and like others, i purr up a storm while getting a session.
there were presents from cousins daisymae and the feline americans. see my new little squillion? he looks a lot like me. the one that looks like suzanne is awfully sweet! and stinky goodness, yay! (there was a cute box of note paper...mom has that at work)
thank you to my secret paws, bartholamew and pepper from roanoke, virginia. this is some swag! i've already eaten the stinky goodness!
thank you to suzanne's secret paw, bat in houston, texas. bat, mom said i can keep some of suzanne's presents, and then we're going to share with another kitty who didn't get to participate in secret paws. we hope that's ok.

Dear boy, looks you have recieved a nice gift, have fun~!
O h Benjamin....how much I have missed you! I am glad you are here again. So happy to see you with so much fun things from your secret paws. The zoom groom is so cool my furrrend Henry had one of those and it hmade his fur sooooo soft after a good brushing. I got a bath today because it was 104* and mommy thought I was getting over heated.
Sweet Suz also got such nice thingies from her SP. I am sure you will dream of her when you sleep on her pretty quilty. My
mommy better get her act together because she has something special planned for Toni. It has been a busy week:)
Love your adoring sister Peach
Great gifts!
Tell you mom congrats on her new camera! And happy 4th!
Hi, dear Ben Fuzz! I'm so glad you're back, my sweet, fuzzy brother... I've missed you so much. Sounds like you and your mom had some good cuddle time, and I send snuggles and love to you both.
What great presents you got -- I love how the Squillions look like you and sweet Suz. And your Zoom Groom sounds intriguing -- I will have to try one of those because I shed a whole lot!
I hope you and your mom had a great Independence Day!
Purrs and snuggles from your loving sister,
Marilyn

Hello Benjamin. I have to admit I didn't know you were gone, but it's nice to meet you. I came by via Simply Siamese.
Wow you sure gots some good stuff. We sure are glad yore back to blogging because we missed you.
Purrs and hugs to you and yore mom Benjamin.
Oh, I am glad you are back. Those are some very wonderful presents. And so sweet of you to share some of Suzanne's things, too. I think she would have liked that.
That is awesome, you got a lot of much deserved gifts!
I love my Zoom Groom. Mum uses it on me lots and it makes me purr.
Hey Ben Fuzz, we're so happy that you are back. We love our Zoom Groom. It rocks!
It's really nice of you to share Suzanne's secret paw gifts.
We hope you had a love July 4th.
Ohh, and Mommy says that she's really happy that your Mommy is considering taking classes in stained glass. It's a really cool hobby (and it's about the only time Mommy wears shoes in the house).
I'm glad you're back. I like all your neat stuff. Have fun with all.
Hi Benjamin. Looks like you got quite a haul there! It sounds as though you are taking good care of your mom. I am sending you all lots of purrs.
What wonderful presents. And that zoom groom looks interesting; we wonder whether we'd like that. You have fur like a sister we had a long time ago. She was a Maine Coon cat and Mom used a slicker brush on her. She loved to be brushed.
We look forward to more pictures with the new camera!
Come visit--we're having a 200th post contest.
