I received this award from Pea over at Pea's Corner a week or so ago and have been meaning to pass it on to all my blogging friends! You are all 5 Star Bloggers in my book!
Just got home and saw your nice comment on my humble blog. Thank you for dropping over. Nice award!
Will be back to read and look more. Love the cat pictures. I only have 5 cats, but they were all rescues as well. I also have 2 dogs, recues, of course, and I love ALL animals.
Kovacs is a common Hungarian name, and we knew several Kovacs's. My maiden name was Szilak, which is a Hungarian name. Burgardt is my married name, and is German, of course.
What a nice blog you have here. Got to run and put stuff away for now. But I will be back as well.
Thanks again for visiting. I always enjoy making new bloggie friends, especially a cat/animal lover.
I love following your blog and follow a couple of others as well. Just wondered if it is difficult to get a blog up and running and how you started out.
I am just horrified at the number of cats put down at the shelter in your area! That is just so sad, I could bawl. It's the ignorance of people that don't spay and neuter their pets and let them run wild that causes this over population of unwanted cats. I'm so glad you have taken in all of them that you have and they have a loving forever home!!!! Congrats on the award, you are very deserving, you have a nice blog!!! :o)
Just stopped over to see if you have an update, and have been reading some of your older posts. Read about Punky and Sweet Pea. I am almost afraid to ask how Punky is, and maybe somewhere in your archives you have answered that. You really do deserve many more than five stars. I am not strong emotionally, and just fall apart when animals are suffering.
Anyway, you have a great blog, and an admirer in me! Thank you again for all your kind words on my blog. Take care and enjoy your sweet kitties!
I am a divorced mother of two grown children, a daughter and a son. I work for my son's property management company, homesnearmickey.com, vacation rental homes near Disney World in Florida. I am an avid animal lover, allowing several cats to share my home, or maybe I should say they allow me to share THEIR home.

I MISS MY SIMON
DOB April 2003 (Lost him at 8 mos. of age due to kidney failure. Broke my heart!)
SIMON
Mar. 31, 2003-Dec. 24, 2003
MISS DOLLY AND BUDDY
Ferals now tamed
ROXY
DOB April 2005 (She was my dentist's cat. They had a grandbaby and another on the way, so I brought Roxy home on 4/3/07. She is my shadow as she doesn't let me out of her sight.)
OLIVER
DOB May 2004 (I got him from a girl in PetsMart in Jan. '05. She had a 19-mo. old baby, and her hubby said to get rid of the cat!)
CLEOPATRA (CLEO)
July 1994 - August 1, 2009
DAPHINIA (DAPHY)
DOB July 1994
DUDLEY
DOB March 2001
DUDLEY
DOB March 2001 (when I took him to work with me, as he was bottle fed from Day 1. He refused to nurse his mama.)
TEDDY BEAR
DOB March 2003 (He is just like a teddy bear, too!)
BUTCH
DOB April 2002 (He is my cuddler!)
BUTCH
DOB April 2002 (Nothing but skin & bones when he was found. The vet said he'd been separated from his mother at least a week. He didn't know if he'd make it through the night. But I fed him every 2 hours around the clock, and he's a big boy today!)
CUPCAKE
DOB April 2006 (Stray kitten that was living on my front porch, but she is now living indoors.)
CUPCAKE
Playing through the glass storm door with a couple of my other cats.
I'll keep posting more cat pics as time permits. Cleo and Daphy are sisters (litter mates) and both are diabetic, having to have insulin shots every 12 hours. I had given them away as kittens, and then the gentleman who had them passed away 6 years later, so I took them back, rather than see them go to the shelter and be separated. There are a lot more cat pics to be posted. I may put them in a slide show once I get them altogether!
Thought for the Day
Don't walk in front of me...I may not follow. Don't walk behind me...I may not lead. Just walk beside me and be my friend.

I just skipped over from Renie's blog. I enjoyed your "Nonsense" and will stop by another day.
Have a pleasant Sunday.
