Mousy Mews on Monday

We are very excited to tell you about two new friends we have that were hand knitted
with love for a wonderful cause by Mara aka mom to Miss Oswin and Brom.
Click here to read the blog , Mice for Mama.
Mara's Grandma started making the mice many many years ago.  Just recently
Mara started making them to raise money for a cause near and dear to her heart.

Here is a picture of all of the mice Mara has made to raise fund for
the stomach, liver and bowel foundation of The Netherlands.
Mara's mom is currently recovering from a very serious surgery.

Today I, Madison D Cat would like to introduce you to my 2 new mice friends....
YEP this kit kat has two meesees for friends!!
Pardon the blurry photo as you can see from my swishing tail I was excited to
meet them.  I wish you could see and touch them they are so amazing and OMCs well made.

Here is a close up of them on our steps

Now for a proper introduction and how we selected these two out of all the beautiful ones Mara made.


Introducing 

Mara has the mice numbered on her blog.  Topo was S011
Mom selected him because of his beautiful colors (like me gray and white)
and because my birthday is the 11th day of March


Introducing

Gigio was #S001.
Mom selected him because her birth month is January.
Gigio has a red nose...everybuddy 'nose' mom likes red.
She looked for a mouse dressed in bright vibrant colors.  Mom
loves the color orange but doesn't wear it as well as Gigio does. Did I mention, OMCs
Gigio  has lavender ears!! Lavender ears are so cool!!

Now Mom must admit she didn't create their names. They were named after
an adorable Italian Mouse who was on the Ed Sullivan Show on the TVees way back when dinos roamed the earth aka mom was a child .  Mom loved this adorable mouse then and now.
Yam Aunty you were correct whey you said Mom would know exactly what she would name them when she took  them out of  the box.  They looked just like the real


 Topo Gigio

He had many different personalities and and outfits

Topo Gigio was funny, smart, kind and always had a very positive message.

Mara gave each mouse a purrsonality too!!

Mara thank you for continuing your Grandma's tradition of making these precious little critters.  We know she would be very proud of you and that you are donated 1/2 of the proceeds toward a very worthy cause.

Hugs Madi, Mom, Topo and Gigio!!
