Two week-a-versary

It was two weeks ago today (and pretty much about this time too) when my human mommy managed to get me out of that awful hole. I was so cold, and hungry and scared…!!

But my human mommy covered me with a blankie and hugged me and brought me home. Then she left me with my human sister and went to the store to buy kitty milk and kitty food for me.

That’s me with my human sister.  I was so scared

They offered me water and food but I was in too much of a shock to have anything. After a while, they convinced me to have a little bit of water and I finally did, with the help of my human mommy cause I didn’t quite understand how it worked to drink water from a kitty dish.

My first bwogging award!

Oh, oh, oh…

I got my very first award bwogging award!!!

I was SO happy I climbed all the way to the top of my brand new scratching post and then ran around the living room a couple of times.

Here it is!

I learned that earning a blogging award comes with certain responsibilities. So I learned how to copy and paste (so many things for a little kitten like me to learn) and here it is.

What’s in a name?

My big bro Jazz Cat Jay  said something interesting about my name.

Now, for those of you who don’t know, Jay is an authority in Vintage Jazz.  Even my human mommy takes advice from him.  When my human daddy gave me the name, I just thought,  oh that sounds like a good name and thought nothing more of it.   And it allows for a lot of fun variations.  So far I’ve heard my humans calling me Mr. Satchs, Satchie and Satchers.

But my big bro said to me: “Listen kid, Satchmo is not JUST a cool name.  It’s a name to be proud of.   You are now part of a very musical family.  Furthermore, a family with a great  jazz tradition.  The human mom is a DJ that specializes in Vintage Jazz, Blues and Black Gospel.  The human dad -even though a classically trained musician, played with a Jazz band back in the day.  And I – well, I am THE Jazz Cat.  Therefore, it was only fitting that you had a Jazz name.”  And then he told me a story.

So, cats and kitties, this is what I learned (It’s so cool to have such a knowledgeable big brother):

There was this really hep cat named Louis Armstrong.  You may have heard of him before but I’m just a little kitten and all of this is news for me.

I heart toys

My human mommy brought me a few presents yesterday. I heart my human mommy even if sometimes she squeezes me too much. She always wants to kiss me and hug me! I like kisses and hugs too but not so much when I WANT to play.

Anyway, I LOVED the toys mommy brought!

She said this is called a scratching post. But, aren’t all the things in this place for scratching?

Sunday Adventures

My human (he likes to think of himself as my daddy and I’m quite OK with that) brought me to visit my rescuer today.

I was very interested in the place. The scents were familiar and right away I running around, jumping and playing with everything. So many new toys and hidden places to explore!

After I spent quite some time exploring and having fun I came to a room that was familiar to me and I run into this big ginger cat. I startled him (and I startled myself in the process as well). We sniffed each other and neither one of us was sure as what to do.

The human decided that was good for now and put us in different rooms.

By that time, I was getting tired of running so I politely asked for a laptop so I could blog about it.

Both my rescuer and my human took some nice pics of me and told me it was OK for me to use them so here they are!

After I was done exploring I found me a nice play to take a break
