WordPress Backup

Now that I have had not one, but TWO disasters with my website, I have installed a new Plugin called “WordPress Database Backup.” If you go under Plugins => Add New, do a search for wp-db-backup. It can do automatic back ups on various schedules. Mine is now set up for once a day. You know, in case I start writing daily or something. Here is the best part: it EMAILS the back up to me!
Bring it on clumsy human with the too-quick delete fingers, do your worst. By that I mean be gentle. I have yet to test this new feature, but I suspect that like any WP backup, it is only the text and not the images that are saved. I’m sure you still have to download the UPLOADS folder once in a while if you want to be able to restore images.

My Friend Kaleesi
Kaleesi was the boss of the house til I got here. She is still the boss of her bedroom (when the kids let her in), but that’s about it. See the crooked tail? It broke when she was a baby on the farm.
Recently Kaleesi had an experience with a cat “rescuer”. She went missing for six days. This is the photo that was on her Missing poster. The morning after the poster was put up, she mysteriously showed up at the door uninjured, fed and fine. I wonder if she visited our other two missing siblings while she was there.
People! Don’t take in cats just because they are outside!! If you do, call the pound first to report them found. Taking in “strays” is NOT OKAY!!

By the looks of these photos Kaleesi spends all her time nippin’. Not so. Sometimes she eats or sleeps. She isn’t allowed outside anymore because of the “rescuer”, but when she was, she was a mighty hunter. No bunny was safe. Now she just chases me and the occasional spider.

Packing Peanuts
Who ever thought packing peanuts could be so delicious? Well not delicious specifically, since they are made of fluffy corn starch, but they have just the right texture and crunch. I just couldn’t keep my teeth out of them!

Need your blog links!
Before my blog was destroyed by stupid humans, I had a nice collection of links to my kitty (and some puppy) friends’ blogs. Sadly, it’s all gone now. Help me build up my link collection again and SEND ME LINKS TO YOUR BLOGS! Anything animal related is fine.

My Blog is Back!! Well, Mostly
My idiot human deleted my entire blog a couple of weeks ago. FOR THE SECOND TIME. This is beyond idiocy, this is complete and utter disrespect. I have been whining and crying about this blank blog for a while now, and finally today she had time to deal with it.
Checked internet archives first, nothing at all for BoogerTheCat.com except for a robots.txt file. What good is that?? My blog has been online for a year and internet archives has absolutely nothing!
Checked iGoogle for RSS feeds, nothing at all except the new Hello World! post. Who cares about that??
Today she happened to open up NetNewsWire on the Mac. Lo and behold, it had the last 10 posts!! No photos, videos or comments, but it’s a start. So here I am, back online, live, big and proud! For the last 10 posts anyway.
I will try to add photos and video over time.
*******
If anyone has an archive of the KITTY ROLL page and can send it to me, I will love you forever and link to you endlessly.
Thanks!
Boogs
