Thursday Meme

I was recently tagged by Ramses for the Nickname Meme. Appreciative purrs, Ramses!

Here are the rules:

Post a link to the cat who tagged you, and post the rules on your blog.


*List your real name, how you got your real name, nicknames you like/tolerate, and nicknames you wish your humans would stop calling you.


*Tag several kitties, and write a comment on their blog to let them know they have been tagged



My Real Name: His Royal Highness Yao-Lin, Master of the Universe, to be adored for all eternity

How I got my Real Name: The human decided upon my name - Yao-Lin - supposedly ' off the top of her head'. She liked it for its onomatopoeiac quality and actually believed that she had discovered this very original name herself. In fact, I share my name with Gabrielle's maid from Desperate Housewives, and thousands of Chinese people!

Nicknames I like: His Royal Highness, Beautiful Prince, Siamese stunner, elegance personified, slave trainer, most perfect and beautiful cat in the universe (to name but a few).

Nicknames I don't like: Stinky noo noo (HOW DARE SHE!), fatso catso (HOW VERY DARE SHE), heffa lump (!!!), whinger boy, bully boy, furchin lurchin, moody meezer, ouch let go, why can't I eat a dinner all to myself.

DO YOU SEE WHY I HAVE SO MUCH CONTEMPT FOR MY HUMAN?

I should very much like to tag the following cats for this interesting meme:


Hendrix

Snow & Forest


Fat Eric

Have a lovely evening, my faithful subjects. I am pleased to report that the human recived her wages today. Consequently, I sent her to the shops to buy my pay-day steak.

It is the least she can do after calling me those hideous nicknames!

Ta ta for now

Thursday Meme: What's New With You?

I have today been tagged by Sammy and Miles for the following Meme:

All you need to do is tell everyone 3 things that are new with you! Link it back to me and the purrson who gave it to you and pass it on to 3 more kitties you'd like to know more about! :)


So, here are 3 things that are new with me:


1. Today is the human slave's birthday. She is only 28 but I fear is having some kind of mid life crisis. She hasn't even cooked me my lamb chops yet and it is 2.30 in the afternoon! WHAT IS THE WORLD COMING TO?

2. Yesterday, I ate some cooked brussel sprouts. No, not because I like them (I don't) but because I knew they would generate severe feline flatulence which is a useful tool in diverting stinky brothers. Mwa ha ha.

3. One of the neighbourhood cats keeps spraying on our front door. It stinks. I retaliate by pooing in the neighbour's pot plants on her porch. She doesn't even have a cat! Mwa ha ha!

I should like to tag:

Storm

Kaze

Fiona.

A Meme on Thursday

I have been tagged by the worshipful and wonderful Cat Realm for a Proverb Meme!

A proverb is a simple and concrete saying popularly known and repeated, which expresses a truth, based on common sense or the practical experience of catkind. They are often metaphorical.

Here is the Cat Realm's Proverb:

A lizard a day keeps the vet away.

And here is mine:

It is a truth universally acknowledged, that a royal feline in possession of a good human slave, must be in want of nothing.

I tag the following cats for this meme:

Luxor
Cheysuli
Eric n Flynn

Thursday Meme

I have been tagged by the delectable Casey Meezer Diva for this meme.

So, without further ado, allow me to talk once more on my favourite subject - moi!

What were you doing 10 years ago?

Well, I wasn't even a twinkle in the King's eye but I have it on good authority that my ancestors were living a life of luxury in a wonderful palace with several hundred human slaves at their beck and call. How I ended up in such poverty, I do not know. It is but a cruel twist of fate.


What were you doing 1 year ago?

I was a single Siamese prince and was busily training my slaves in the way of the Siamese cat. It was exhausting but at least at that point I was a lone Siamese i.e no brother with which to become infuriated.

Five favourite Snacks:

Steak
Lamb Chops
Sardines
Grass
Yoghurt

Five songs to which you know the lyrics:

Somethin' Stupid by Nicole Kidman and Robbie Williams.
Love Me Do by the Beatles
I Love my Dog By Cat Stevens
Your Song by Elton John
These Words by Natasha Bedingfield.

The humans leave Radio 1 on all day when they are at work. That's the only reason I know the above tunes!


Five things you would do if you were a millionaire:

Buy several sprawling palaces.
Hire new slaves.
Turf the old slaves out onto the street as punishment for being useless.
Throw money into the Meezers for World Domination Campaign.
End animal neglect via worthy charities.

Five bad habits:

Leaving poo prints all over the house.
Kicking litter all over the floor.
Attacking the human's hands and feet when they are asleep. (I don't think that is a bad habit at all!)
Ripping the curtains to shreds.
Losing the humans their deposit because of the above.

Five things you like doing:

Vandalising the house.
Attacking Baby Mao.
Attacking the humans.
Eating.
Demanding affection. The humans are stupid enough to give it to me! Serves them right!

Five things you would never wear again:

The pink waistcoat the human bought that was a size too small.
The orange headband she bought me from Amsterdam
A smile. I find scowling much more effective.
The pink T-Shirt she bought me from Amsterdam.
The pink wig Baby Mao put on me!

Five favourite toys:

Baby Mao
Orange Mouse
Human feet
Human hands
Hairbands

Five kitties to tag:

Cheysuli
Luxor
Jinx
The Mckitten Cats
Baby Mao

Well, I hope you all enjoyed reading even more about me!

I will be adorning my tiara made especially for me by the Cat Realm in tomorrow's post. I am sure you are quivering in anticipation!
