Greetings, furriends. The Furry Bambinos decided that I, Padre, as Senior Furry Bambino would be best suited to present Mom’s PurrFurmance Review. However, we did hold a meeting of the minds, and her review is based on input from the five of us Furry Bambinos. We even took Sunny’s and Sky’s recommendations into consideration. They are our current foster kittehs. Without further ado, let’s begin, shall we? a big\u00a0THANK YOU<\/span><\/span><\/strong> to Mom Ann of Zoolatry<\/a> for the nifty graphics!!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

This is a picture of what Mom looks like. Yeah, we know, it’s just her hands, but they are the most important part!Just look at those wonderful opposable thumbs! Useful for opening cans of stinky goodness, giving scritches, and helping us blog and visit our furriends.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

However, those same hands have given us medications, trimmed our nails, and shoved us into PTU’s to go to the V-E-T.<\/p>\n

Exhibit B: The Review Form<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Our Review of Mom<\/p>\n

Reviewed By<\/span>: Padre, Panda Bear, Meerkat, Cookie, Caramel, and fosters Sunny and Sky<\/p>\n

Quantity of Output<\/span>: 41 posts in 2010. \u00a0Hmmm. \u00a0Definitely nowhere near daily. Or even weekly, which would be 52 posts for the year. At least this is an improvement over 2009, in which there was a paltry 30 posts for the whole year. Some cats blog that much in a month! In Mom’s defense, the blog was incapacitated for awhile while Daddy’s computer went deaded due to a virus. During that time, both Mom and Dad had to share the laptop. Daddy had to get all his files off his hard drive, wipe the hard drive clean, and then reinstall everything. And THEN Daddy was able to upgrade the bloggie to the new version of WordPress.<\/p>\n

Quality of Output<\/span>: Only one movie produced last year. Pathetic! And it was depicting the reason Meerkat has been grounded for life.<\/a> Lots of good photos, though.<\/p>\n

Pawticipation (Part I)<\/span>: Mom does help us visit as much as she can. However, she does get distracted from helping us to blog and visit, by such lame excuses as “going to work”, “taking care of the fosters”, “sleeping”, “gardening”, “running non-cat related errands”, “bathing”,\u00a0… You get the idea.<\/p>\n

Pawticipation (Part II)<\/span>: Mom does not allow us to purrticipate in as many fun blog events as we would like. See above, under Pawticipation (Part I)\u00a0for her litany of excuses.<\/p>\n

Client Satisfaction<\/span>: Our furriends are too polite to voice their disgust with the lack of regular blog posts.<\/p>\n

Additional Criteria<\/span>: Dad is Good Cop at Casa de Furry Bambinos, and Mom is Bad Cop. Case in point: Dad plays feather toy with us. Mom trims our toe nails. Dad opens cans of stinky goodness for us most mornings. Mom schedules V-E-T appointments for us. Dad sees to it that we have clean litter boxes daily. Mom shoves medications down our throats.<\/p>\n

Mitigating Factors<\/span>: We would like to add that Mom is liberal with sharing food from her meals. She is also much better at dispensing the treats than Dad is.<\/p>\n

Overall Rating<\/span>: In short, Mom is the “Sue Sylvester” of Casa de Furry Bambinos. Her first name is even Sue. We give Mom a “Low” rating, of two swats. Given that there are seven of us, that amounts to fourteen swats!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Comments and Suggestions for Improvement<\/span>: Quit sleeping, eating, and gardening, and help us blog more!<\/p>\n

We hope to catch up with reading and visiting this weekend. We are curious to hear how other purrsons PurrFurMance Reviews went!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
