It comes with these rules:
"When accepting this auspicious award, you must write a post bragging about it, including the name of the misguided soul who thinks you deserve such acclaim, and link back to said person so everyone knows he or she is real. Choose a minimum of 7 blogs that you find brilliant in content or design. Or improvise by including bloggers who have no idea who you are because you don’t have 7 friends. Show the 7 random victims’ names and links and leave a harassing comment informing them that they were prized with “Honest Weblog.” Well, there’s no prize, but they can keep the nifty icon. List at least ten honest things about yourself. Then, pass it on! "
We will hold up the tradition in posting an honest picture of us to begin with. Plus, we will add some small pics or videos for illustrative reasons.
Chilli's first.
I sit on my hind legs like a bunny.I'm super fast. I dashed out of the door to our home into the hallway four times already.
I hate going by car and the PTU. When we had to drive 3h at Christmas I screamed the whole time. No joking, the whole trip! Mom said next time everyone except the driver has to take sedatives, 'cos it's far too stressful.
I want to rule this house. And I will. Hell, I'm a little feral from Rome!!! (An organisation brought me to Germany by car. Mom sees a connection with point 2 here. A strong connection!)
I'm, ehem, coughing, having problems in the litter box. It's because everything is so interesting! Sometimes I'm doing my business and something catches my attention and I just walk off the litter box, forgetting what I was doing and 'what I was doing' falls on the ground. Mom actually saw this. Maybe it will be better when I'm more growned up?
I have a very wet nose and leave stains with it on the window.
I'm a horrible patient. I whine, scream and fight.
I'm a daredevil and a great jumper. Mom says that's a "good" combination, then she shudders.
I'm pretty vocal. Recently I learned a cool rolling sound from Siena I didn't do before.
I love to play but I don't share toys. And I steal Siena's treats!
I'm a love bug and a great cuddler. I'm very nervous though and won't hold still while cuddling, always moving around, changing positions, rubbing my head against everything.
I have one mighty purr. I prefer to lay next to mom's head, or cuddled up against her neck to make sure she hears me.
I'm afraid, I'm a bit clumsy. I'm not a good jumper and tend to slip and almost fall off things. I'm a good climber though.
I dream very intensely and move in my sleep. Sometimes I whine so hard that mom wakes me up.
There's a yellow towel that drives me nuts. Every times it hangs in the bathroom I try to rip it off. It's only this towel, others I leave alone.
I follow mom around but don't cuddle as much with her as before. Maybe that's because Chilli always ruins my mom-time, because she pushes herself in. Grr.
I do cool prrr, prrr, prrr, prrrr sounds to comment everything.
I absolutely HAVE to sit in the bathroom when mom takes a shower. If she wouldn't let me in I would ruin the carpet in front of the door.
I scratch on the left side of mom's office chair. Hahaha! That's her fault, she should have educated me better on this point. Now it's too late.
I do other forbidden things too, but unlike Chilli, I do them at night or when mom is in another room. Ha! She'll never find out if it really was me who ruined the beautiful Amarillys.The second the litter box is cleaned and freshly installed back in it's place I use it. Mom is always amazed at my timing.
I fetch little balls and come when called.
I love belly rubs, but mostly from the other type of human. My mom just doesn't do them as good as he does. Mom says it's almost disgusting watching us. I think she's jealous. He just needs to talk to me in a certain way and I turn up my belly and give myself away, it can go on for minutes and minutes and minutes! I don't like being called Sienna. It's Siena - like the city in Italy and the earthen colour they find around that place. Mom decided on that name because she was reading Niccolò Machiavelli's "Il Principe" at that time. He's Florentine, but mentioned Siena a lot. I got siena-coloured fur spots.
I don't mind the PTU and during the drive at Christmas I slept.
I'm a gentle player. That's why Chilli always ruins my style when she thunders through in the middle of my game.
I love laying on cold surfaces and you'll often find me on our floor.

What great lists, it was cool to get to know you better:) Chilli, your honest photo is perfection, so beautiful. You have to be the prettiest sisters in the world:)
It was great learning more about you both. We especially liked learning about how you got your name Siena.
We hopes we haven't been mispronouncing/misspelling it. We thinks it is a lovely name for a lovely kitty. ~Socks, Scylla, Charybdis & Fenris
That was a great meme!! It was so nice to learn even more about you girls!!
Happy Friday, Siena and Chilli!!
That was so much fun to read, starting with the beautiful "honest| photos of the two of you! It is clear that you, Chilli, are what they call "a character"! And Siena, aside from the, ahem, night-time activities, you sound very sweet and ladylike!
Your Friends,
Tom and Tama-Chan
We loved reading all these wonderful things about you. Siena...we admit to mispronouncing your name, but since you never hear us doing it I suppose we didn't need to admit it! Ha! My momma Ellie also fetches little balls, she even drops them down the stairs to chase them when mom won't play.
Thank you so much for the award! We doubt that we can write a post that's even half as good as this one though - it was really fun to read! Loved the photo of the window - all our windows look like that...
P.S. There is a famous set of crayons that many children in the U.S. have with a color called "Sienna" and I think that is why some of us misspell Siena's name. I always try to think about the city when I spell it!
Wondeful to meet you both.
It is always fun to learn new things about our friends. We heard Chillie on teh puter ans came to see who Mom was playing with!
That was great - and the photos were perfection!
What a great post and pictures you two! Chilli, when we were listening to the video of you crying it woke Minchie up out of a sound sleep and came over to the computer to see who was in distress. He wanted to save you.
Those are some interesting things about you two...and we can see how you two are kinda opposites!!!
Chilli...did you yell like that the entire time??? Wow!
Those were some really interesting things about you two! The funniest thing was about Chilli in the litterbox.
Siena, you are very good to come when called!
Ahhh sorry we got Chilli's name wrong. Hehe we were sure we spelled it right. Darn! It was fun learning more about the two of you x
That is one great list. now we know what you like, don't like, this is a great way to get to know you better.
What a great MeMe that was all about YouYou. How fun to get to know the little things that make you both well you.
Mommy said she loves the pink that is made when you mix burnt siena with white. It's warm, lovely and earthy just like you LSIF.
Siena and Chilli--
You are great cats! I especially like the belly rub photo--that's pretty funny!

Those were great, Siena and Chilli!!!!!
I loved all little tidbits!
I don't know if I could be that honest!
Now, what is wrong with that yellow towel???
Purrs Goldie
Thank you so much for telling you about yourselves, Chilli and Siena! We feel that we know you even better now! Chilli definitely sounds like Sylvie in many ways ("feisty" and "talkative" is what Meowmy says). This was lots of fun to read!
Congrats on the award. We've gotten it too and have to write about it...
Cliff was very concerned with the sound bite. He came running fast straight from a nap...
Thanks for the link to the 10 honest things about you.
