Starved Wrinkly children

Good Grumpy October, Furriends!! I'm grumpy.

I'm always grumpy 24/7/365!! no day off of being grumpy.

The Missing wrinkly child thing has not been solved yet.
and another bad thing happened to our US Cat community
that some irresponsible breeder purrson has neglected taking care of
her cats, they are ELFs (Mix breed of Sphynx and American Curl),
the purrson did not feed them, and all cats (11 of them) got Skin and bone.
(sorry for the image, this was actual photo of one of the victims)

O h  No!!

According to one of the friends who rescued them, they were dirty
(hairless cats need bath regularly)
Our furriends rescued and helped them to get back to normal size.

Still skinny but closer to normal size for wrinkly cats now.

Latest video


They look OK now, nobody died from the starvation.
Shanks to our furriends who rescued them.
Shanks to my furriends who sent them donation from my fan page.

I don't know the details of how this happened,
not sure if it was because
the breeder purrson was busy with other job, school etc, or had a
financial problem, whatever it was, I wish she contacted someone
to ask for help her cats before she made them skin and bone.
Asking someone for help is a lot easier today, because not only physically,
we can also ask via internet.
(Me, Yogi has found an adopter/foster for 2 cats in Japan as I lived in US).

 A purrson who is irresponsible like this should not have any pets,
especially if  nobody else live with her/him.
There are many people who can not even be responsible to one pet , even to one
human baby, a child purrson also. They were supposed to be happy when the pet, baby
came to their lives at first. I don't know how people change their mind to them,
started to neglect taking care of them, begin to feel they do not want the pet,
baby... I myself was a homeless cat once, so thinking of that makes me really
sad.
Some humans are selfish, unreliable, untrustable...

That's scary, scarier than my grumpy face.

XLXL,
Yogi

News around Yogi ~September 2012

 Good Grumpy Afternoon, Furriends!! I'm Yogi. There are few things I'd like to announce today, some of you already know that my namager Imoecat has died last Friday(Sept 14), that's why I have to update this blog by myself today. She was 16 yr old elderly cat, not strenji that she passed away anytime, and it happened. too bad, but good news is that her owner is still alive, so her death would not affect my bijiness at all. Blogs, fan pages, Yogi shop OK, no worries.

Visited Imoe house once, I'm dancing. shaken the house hard,
Hippo daddy(Imoe owner) complaining to Imoe about me.

And the Child purrson in Imoe house read me a book,
She has picked the book for me ("I Can Make you THIN") belly interesting.

 I cried for her anyway.

Next topic, Butterball update.(see the previous post last week on this blog)
His dad has just made this video, so you can see what really happened to Butterball.
He still has been with the cat napper, not yet return to his dad.
please watch   

This is awful. my manager Imoe cat has gone, she died, family know she won't be back, but Butterball is alive(I believe), and we know where he is, but we don't know how he's been doing.  it must get his dad crazy!!
as the video says, The local police refused to help his dad get his cat back. what kinda people they are?! it's because "Just a cat"?!  maybe Dad should write to OH senator or somebody. I'll continue updating Butterball incident on my blog , or "Yogi And Furriends" fan page on Facebook.

And  a new follower on Twitter,

Local News station!!

That's all for today. ShanQ for reading. see you soon.

Tha MISSING Wrinkly Child

Good Grumpy September,  furriends!! Yogi and her furriends have been XXX grumpy.
Do you remember "Butterball",  the Sphynx cat, (Mini-Yogi) ,one of our furriends
we introduced on this blog earlier this year?
Article about Butterball in March, 2012

 Shortly after the article, his dad had to go out of town where he could not take his pet with,
so he had to find someone he could trust enough, to ask for fostering Butterball then.
Yogi Momsy first offered him help, and he wanted to send Butterball to Yogi house then,
The Breeder of Butterball offered the same, she convinced him that Yogi people and he were just friends on FB, never physically met,-yah, makes sense, Yogi people could be untrustable people,
 if Butterball's dad had not known them in purrson, it could be dangerous place to Butterball to stay.
The Breeder convinced him to agree to send Butterball to her Cattery.

Sending your cat to Yogi house is dangerous?

(6 months later),
 Now Butterball's dad has returned home, he could not wait for getting Butterball back as soon as he could, let the breeder know he's back, and wanted to get his cat back.

The Breeder has refused to return his Butterball to him. Nobody knows what does that mean, or why.

 While Butterball dad was away, nobody saw any photos, videos, and even heard anything about Butterball from the Breeder who was supposed to have been taking care of him in the 6 months.
Refusing to return Butterball to his dad means;
Because Butterball no longer exists? -died (killed),? , lost(missing)?,  to cover up something to hide? (e.g.. accidentally got him sick, injured?), or Was he sold someone without his dad knowing it?
If nothing like those happened, and Butterball is safe with her, she must return him to his dad as she first promised.
At first place, it was business that she sold the cat as merchandise to the person, and he paid the price of the merchandise, that's final, the cat is his. did the breeder change her mind after she sold Butterball? suddenly wanted the cat back to her cattery? if so, and if  she wanted to have Butterball  as hers, she should at least refund the price his dad paid plus some money for causing confusion/trouble that she wanted the merchandise back for her personal reason, and used this opportunity to steal the cat by pretending offering foster care.

 With no reasonable explanation,  she has been avoiding, blocking contact of anyone she does not want to confront with.

 So as the result of sending a cat to his breeder who was supposed to be responsible in cat care for fostering, Butterball was stolen instead.

 How can we help Butterball to return to his dad safely? Any idea ? (Besides calling local police, and filing complaints with Attorney General in the state where the Cattery is located (OH that is )?) If so, please write to us to this Blog, or on Yogi And Furriends page on Facebook, or Tweet to @Prejidentyogi

Yogi on CheezBurger.com

 Good Grumpy August, Furriends!! Sorry about no updating for over a month. Unexpectedly the child purrson in my house (I'm Imoe, Yogi manager), has got noisy little stalkers(neighbor kids) who visited our house whenever they wanted, it was XXXX annoying, I was not allowed to sleep, eat, play, and do anything anytime I wanted, during the month of July and until the summer break for kids was over.
(we never let child purrson play with neighbor kids before, and never thought of it, really totally unexpected).
all my other blogs has been delayed for updating also, not only this one.

  Anyway the news is that suddenly Yogi has become a regular for "I can Has Cheezburger' website recently. (*I can has Cheezburger is a popular book with funny cat photos, they have a website too).
I can has Cheezburger(Book)

We've found 5 photos of Yogi on Cheezburger.com so far. (there might be more).

Pearl necklace

Sweater dress

Tina Turner

Miss. Cleo

Hairless Krishnas.


 Why did this happen to Yogi ? I think it was because our new furriend from the website "Cats, Beavers & Ducks "http://catsbeaversandducks.tumblr.com/ liked Yogi and shared several Yogi photos on their website.
Cheezburger people saw Yogi photos there, and stole them for their website.
Really, that's how they collect those funny photos of cats, without looking for the original owner of the photos and without her purrmission?(90% of Yogi photos were taken by her Momsy, and 10% by me).
I thought those funny photos in their book were all original taken by the author, never thought that the book was made with photos they found on the internet, yet without purrmission..

 But as Yogi manager, I'd like to use anything for her publicity. Photos stolen by/for the famous Cheezburger site is good for her publicity, so we allow them to use Yogi photos anytime.

 Also Yogi still has been getting interesting new followers on Twitter. Honestly Yogi on Twitter has been talking in Japanese language lately more than in English, I thought Yogi might not get English speaking followers anymore... But new followers did not care.

Born This Way Foundation by Lady Gaga and her mother, is Yogi's follower now.

And Finally...All famous cats must have this follower.

Cat Fancy magajin.

 

 I know that Lady Gaga has a problem about her Fur issue, we're still at the side of the people who fight for Animal rights, of course, but for Yogi publicity, we let Lady Gaga foundation follow Yogi on Twitter. they know Yogi is a cat, against fur, but decided to follow. we won't support her fur thing. OK.

Yogi is still popular, no problem.
well, that's all for now.
Have a nice grumpy August, Furriends!!

The Coolest way to spend money & time ~ by Imoecat

 Good Grumpy Summer, Furriends!  Sorry for not updating this blog again. Yogi on Twitter has been getting busier with many new furriends in Japan, talking to celebs as usual.. We've even started helping homeless cats in Japan via Twitter.

Today, I'd like to talk about one of the homeless cats we helped spreading Tweet,( "We" means me and Yogi). It was like Cinderella story for a homeless cat.
In the last month (June, 2012), oneday we saw the Tweet about those kittens(below).





Tweet was from the Japanese business man who found those kittens at his job site, he didn't know what to do with those babies, so he contacted the local police dept, and gave those kittens to the police, then later he Tweeted about them. He asked people to pick up those kittens at the police station within 24 hrs to adopt if anyone can do so. (he concerned that kittens might be sent to the health dept of the city gov, and could be killed at there anytime) .
As you see, those kittens looked like days old. just got out of mom cat's belly to the world, but do they have to say good -bye to the world only in days? that does not make sense to the people who care about cats.
we're in US, can not help them physically of course, but at least tried do what we could- Re-tweeted the message to spread the word. we even talked to other people who worried about those kittens, and discussed what we could do for help. So worried.. 'cause not only about the time, they were at the police station as lost and found item, Police could give anyone those kittens away without carefully screening a person. what if someone irresponsible asked for? bad person who was looking for his next torture victims?
we all worried about it.
7-8 hours after I saw the Tweet about the kittens, I learned that someone picked them up at the police station, and they were OK with the person. sounded like the person was involved rescue work or something.. we were all happy to hear that.

But  The Happy story did not end there. The next day, someone told us that the person who picked up those kittens was the mother of the popular Japanese female singer!!!!!!!!!!! and one of the kittens (left one in black and white fur) was introduced as a new family member of the singer's house by the singer herself on her blog!!!!!!!Shoko Nakagawa (Japanese singer) blog
In her blog, she keeps saying the baby is very cute, and she also saying she is thinking of the name for the kitten. so lovely!!
What a Lucky kitten!! (the singer says the same). From homeless to the princess in the star's house! and all it happened in 2 days!
And the mother of the singer is super cool. what would you do if your daughter was a very popular and famous singer? the mother of the singer probably is allowed to do almost anything she wants with her daughter's money and fame, she can even buy anything she wants to spoil herself, but she involves rescue work for cats, likes do things for needy animals, and spends her money to save their lives instead, and the singer can help educate people via media about homeless animals as well.
I really was impressed by this, great story, great success rescue story!!

 Then One more person I'd like to talk about.  Yogi's momsy. Like the singer's mother, Yogi's Momsy does something similar too. Though most her cats are Sphynx (total 10 cats in her house at this time, 7 out of 10 are Sphynx, 2 peterbald, and 1 mixed breed cat with fur), Yogi was a homeless, and Mimsy(one of her Sphynx) has no eyes, and Finley (mixed cat) has no eyes also. there was another blind Sphynx before (died 2-3 yrs ago)  and she has told me that she has adopted a cat who was a tortured victim. For some people, what she owns may look like fascinating (many Sphynx, and can afford to pay for everything for what cats need), but she wants to save cats nobody want basically.
Not only that, recently there was big mountain fire in CO as many of US friends might  have remembered.
the area Yogi house is located was unfortunately involved, Yogi house was safe, but many people in the city has lost their homes, partially or entirely lost what they owned.
few days after the fire, I received e-mail from Yogi momsy, and her message said that she has been helping people who lost their homes, everything for the fire. she let those victims stay in her house, help animals belonged to the fire victims (including horses),  Yogi house was served as the evacuation center for fire victims. many of us know she was generous, but great that she can be generous this much.

 The singer's mother, and Yogi momsy, both, they don't just send money to somewhere with message "here is donation, you can use for helping needy animals (or fire victims)". They pay and they work physically for what they want to help. that is XXXXXX Cool.

Yogi and her Momsy

 I even get mad when a child purrson brings her little friend to our house unexpectedly, can't think of allowing to stay people or hosting them in my house for days...(me not like Momsy..).

So if you ever be a rich, please try to be like Yogi momsy or the singer's mom.

Yogi And Celebs #2

 Hellow furriends!  Sorry for not updating for a month.  As you might have seen, we met Jackson Galaxy at the local bookstore last month. It was book signing event for his new book, Cat Daddy.  We had to be there for promoting Yogi.  Since the store told us No cats were allowed insider the store, we did not go there with Yogi, but Yogi photo. we asked Jackson to hold Yogi photo, and smile for our camera.

See?

He signed to Yogi with XLXL

And we gave him Happy Cat father's day gift set from Yogi And Furriends.

The Yogi notebook and Yogi pen, w/card.(Notebook sold out already @Yogi shop)

 It was great. Jackson was friendly and talked to us casually. there was his talk before autograph session, he really cared about cats, particularly homeless ones. Not the purrson who acts like as if he likes cats.  he really cares, and thinks/does  what he can do.  He visited the local shelter for lecturing earlier the day, and was on local news to help homeless cats to look for new homes as well. He was in our city not just for selling his book.

 And when I got home from the Jackson event .. I saw new follower notification from Twitter.

Even Human prejident office know Yogi now. How cool is that???! I feel very strenji .

I didn't predict anything when I made those funny pics of Yogi with human prejident pic.

With Twitter Yogi has got connected with those people...really strenji..( I never thought I 'd ever even had a chance to communicate with a purrson like Nicole Richie at all). Driving Twitter as Yogi is really cool.

Sorry, no tips for how to get celeb followers, or get replies from celebs. I have no idea myself.

ShanQ for supporting Prejident Yogi.

Yogi And Bijiness~Sphynx Wear~ Yogi in fahsion photo shoot

 Hellow.  We want to talk about Yogi And Bijiness again. Today want to introduce you Sphynx Wear, the most  popular clothing shop for wrinkly, naked cats online. (Their link is at left side on this page by the way).  they have really cool designed clothing for wrinkly, naked cats.
Since they are bijiness for wrinkly naked cats, and Yogi is a wrinkly naked cat. they became furriends on FB earlier this year. Recently  the store wanted Yogi to try on their clothing, and gave her one. I, Imoe visited Yogi in her house for helping her fashion photo shoot.

Yogi in the Track suit by Sphynx Wear (Black/White, $36)

Isn't that cool? (the white lines are slimming-look effect). nobody would think this cat is size XXXL. I'd like to show you some of the clothing from the store here:

The New Yorker ($36)

Vintage T Ball ($32)

Pink Lemonade reversible dress ($38)

Bubba ($36)

 Aren't they cool? you can go to the store website by clicking the name of the clothing under each photos above, there are more on their website, please visit.

 Back to the fashion photo shoot with Yogi.. there are more photos...the first photo was great but..

a middle aged man who forgot to wear his pants.

We were not sure at this point if the top can cover her entire XXXL belly

Got grumpy

the neck was little tight for Yogi 

Yogi Momsy is putting the top over Yogi head

from side View, Nice.

The same top is available at Sphynx Wear website.

For detail of this Track Suit click here

The real reason why Sphynx Wear wanted Yogi to try their clothing was because they are planning to carry XXX size soon for wrinkly naked cats in Yogi Size. they said the top they gave Yogi should be little too big (but Yogi needs one 1 inche bigger all over at least). If your naked children are normal size(skinny to medium), they will fit.

ShanQ for visiting my Blog. 

See you next time. XLXL~ Imoe
