Dynia
Location: Montville, Maine, USA
This little girl (pronounced din-ya, which is Polish for pumpkin) was rescued from a life in a barn. She is absolute trouble! Bites nice and hard, but how could I get frustrated with this cute little face? She gives her big sister a run for her money too.
Possibly a pounce perhaps?
Big orange fluff. I love her little “pout.”
lets not forget….”VOTE FOR GIMPY” http://www.arcamax.com/catsanddogs/galpic-36210 also the weekends have almost half the clicks for the animal rescue site so click to help feed homeless animals http://www.theanimalrescuesite.com/clickToGive/home.faces?siteId=3&link=ctg_ars_home_from_ars_thankyou_sitenav

And please note the 5 other good causes you can support with clicks, at the top of the page on the animal rescue site!
I often wonder why they do not send out reminders on the weekend as well as weekdays. The reminders are automatically sent, aren’t they? I use Firefox and put the animal rescue site on the toolbar so I see it at the top of my page and remember to click.
I signed up for email reminders and I get them on weekends.
Mine only come on the weekdays. I think I’ll resign for them. Thanks
POUNCE!
Good morning TDK’ers! Hope that you are having a great Sunday wherever you are. Its early here in Oregon
I have a cat (Stormy) who is lying on the desk and her feet keep hitting the top of my keyboard . Since it one with extra keys up there it keeps doing strange things. Like sending me to “Outlook”
Now Dynia, you should not bite, it hurts your humans!
Ted
Be careful! My kitties have tried to delete Microsoft Word and Internet Explorer, among other things. I am also a little curious about their interest in ‘Search’ function. They have opened it at least 5-6 times themselves. ???
I might never find out.
Looks like they want you to look up Microsoft rivals and download them!
I’m actually very happy with Open Office–virtually all the MS functions, but free!
It’d midafternoon here and I am “busy” watching Wales play France at rugby on the tele. So far the French are in the lead. Come on Wales!
Please can I have a cuddle? I’ll bring white wine, toast and paté, strawberries, raspberries, shortbread and extra thick cream to the sharing circle.
How sweet! I had forgotten how much cuteness was here at TDK!
Kim- you have a great blog/ website! keep posting as often as you can.
Dear little kitten … check the nose and mouth! Cute! You might want to dissuade the biting habit though. It’s no longer any fun when they get older, I know from experience.
Good Morning TDKers. Just finished watching Fox and Friends and
they had a segment on Meow Mix w/kittens. Too cute.
This little Dinya is sooooo cute. They just keep getting cuter and cuter!!!!
What a precious girl! And lucky, too — from barn to luxury in one easy step…
The more I look at her, the more I’m convinced she’s going to have a pixie face even into adulthood.
what a lovely ginger weekend, such cuties
guess kittenmasters system didnt like my post, but remember “vote for GIMPY today”
She certainly looks, “I’m the boss and I’ll bite any dissenters!’ Those teeth come keen when she’s grown, though.
Good Morning all TDKers….Dinya has that innocent ‘who me’ look…yep know it well, being the proud family member with two orange babies!
What a cute little fluff ball
Good morning all!!
I just made a refridgerator cake for my dad (mom and I ate the last one haha) before they leave for the great white North!
This little one is a cutie, but the biting needs to stop. Tiger did it until he got nipped by Bailey (not bit but nipped). Now he knows that it isn’t FUN!!!
Anyways. Happy Sunday to all
Hi Alex!
Love Terri
Is it possible to cure such a cute little kitten of biting? Bitey cats can be so unpleasant, and it would be such a shame if that habit continued when she’s big and gorgeous.
Dynia is so angelic-looking. (feeds kitten smoked salmon) I didn’t quite make it to worship services today, so here I am, preparing the brunch buffet a bit early. I have smoked salmon, roast beef, apple-flavored bacon, maple-flavored sausage, sliced turkey, scrambled eggs with cheese, croissants, bagels, cream cheese, Asiago cheese bread, grits, hash browns, hash blues, fruit salad, cranberry juice, apple juice, tea, and Dom Perignon mimosas. Who wants eats?
I’ll bring my bits and pieces and we can have a feast. Can’t stay long, I have to go to sing Evensong at 5.15. We do 2 services a day 9.30 am (Communion) and 6.30 pm (Evensong), but I have to be there early today for choir practice.
See my post above for what “my bits and pieces” are.
*huff puff running in* Here’s the coffee for Great Dane! Regular, mocha, espresso, cappucino, New Orleans style? Cream, milk?
oooh me! all I had was eggs and sausage this morning. I’d love some smoked salmon. what are hash blues?
Jadete, I’m so sorry about your baby doggin.
How thrilling you offered to take Allie and her bro from Angela Motorman. I fell in love with Allie’s picture and was enlisting my daughter’s help in finding them homes when I saw your news. I hope they bring life and love to your home.
thanks Sharon, he was almost 14 yrs old and his poor little body just plum wore out on him. I will cry for years I know, I still cry about my cat and that was about 12 yrs ago.
Hash blues are hash browns made from the All-Blue potato, a potato with indigo skin and lavender flesh.
Oh yum! Really spoiled for choice for this Sunday Brunch buffet! Could I please have some scrambled eggs with cheese, Asiago cheese bread, some of Polly’s Mum’s strawberries & rasberries with cream and some shorbread - AND one of those Dom Perignon mimosas! This is a 3-day weekend here in the UK, the weather is absolutely gorgeous (a miracle!) and I’m going to sit in the back garden and enjoy the feast. Any chance we can move the sharing circle to the UK for a little while?
Yeah, what are hash blues?
I LOVE TDK brunches! (In case someone wouldn’t know
)
A little of this, a lot of that - I need bigger plates.
And I want to taste Dom Perignon, never had the priviledge before.
I have been singing Sunday Bloody Sunday all day. It doesn’t reflect my mood though - Do you know light and happy Sunday songs?
Question Viicki whats hash Blue? The spread sounds great. mmmmmm!
Dynia has that movie star pose..”I’m cute and I know it”
Hi Alex! Hello Kittenmaster! Good Morning Lurkers! And a great day to anyone I forgot. Todays little cutie pie looks like a mischief maker. Thanks for Breakfast Vicki!
Even though I don’t always post, I hope you all know that I do send positive thoughts to whomever needs it, and the happiest of Birthday wishes to everyone!
I may actually have time later to give an update on the litter of 10 that are terrorizing my household!
Dynia seems to be saying “And if you like THIS pose, I have others!”
What a little beauty.
Jadete-my guess would be hash “browns” made with those new blue potatoes, right, Vicki?
interesting- I thought those blue potatoes only had blue skins, with white on the inside. Am I wrong?
Some blue potatoes only have the indigo skin, but white flesh. A true All-Blue is ‘blue’ clean through.
Right on.
*takes some scrambled eggs, hash browns, fruit salad, and apple juice .. sneaks some turkey to the adorable fuzzy little kitten*
8:00am here and I am just barely waking up. Have to feed my brats (two kitty brats - Mamma Kitty and Shiva (both spoiled little girls) and one puppy brat - a 6 year old German Shepherd mix named Trinity) get ready for church in a couple of minutes.
I have a favor to ask everybody. I have mentioned that my exercise routine is now 2 sessions of about 30 minutes of dancing to my ipod. But this is getting difficult because I am running out of music to dance to — well, I do have over 4000 songs in my iTunes library but most of this is metal/death metal which isn’t good to dance to. I also have nearly everything the band Kraftwerk has ever released but I have listened to these songs so many times that I am starting to get tired of them.
Because of the expenses for school and the doctor’s visits, I don’t have the money to buy anymore new music for a long time. I really need to keep my energy up when dancing so I need more music.
What I am asking everybody for is links to websites that have full song downloads or if you have any songs in mp3 format that you can send me. I need high energy music and prefer techno, trance, or 80’s new wave. Some metal music has a lot of energy and a decent beat too although I prefer positive, uplifting lyrics and a lot of metal doesn’t have that. Actually, I will try to dance to almost anything high energy although I am not a fan of most oldies (50’s, 60’s, 70’s) or country.
My email address is: owlwatcher_974 at earthlink dot net
Have a great day everybody!
*stops to pick up Dynia for a quick cuddle making sure to avoid her sharp little teeth*
My students told me about a site called ‘LimeWire’. Haven’t tried it myself, but it might help you.
Try LimeWire! Try LimeWire! Try LimeWire! I downloaded close to 1500 songs from it over the course of about four months.
LimeWire is great if you want a computer full of viruses. Quarantine and scan everything you download from that site before you open it.
Owlwatcher, while I’m a thrashmetal buff myself (adore Slayer) I find the best dance music is from the ’50’s or ’80’s. Please go to live365.com. It’s an online radio service with all kinds of stations to select and most are free. I listen to celtic music there (also great to dance to). You can record and later download whatever you like.
Check out youtube.
I forgot to mention that I am looking for legal mp3 downloads - otherwise I could download whatever I want from bit torrent or soulseex. Band websites are perfect for this sort of thing but I am out of ideas as to what bands to check out. It’s the same if somebody sends me one or two mp3 files.
I’m off to church now … see everybody later *smiles and waves as she heads out the door*
Such a beautiful little girl. You are so lucky.
Dynia certainly is a little beauty! Yes - she definitely has that “I’m in charge, and don’t you forget it!” look!
*Gives her a scritch on the head and a snuggle, keeping hands well away from those sharp little teeth! *
Dynia very closely resembles our Rasputin, who’s also a biter when he’s had enough petting or holding. My daughter named him that because, as a tiny baby, he kept attacking her visitors. Now at 13 he’s learned to stop biting and only growls and yowls . Some are just irascible from birth.
Good Morning Everyone!
Dynia is such a total cutie…..I think she’s the sweetest one we’ve had in a while…
Thanks to whoever posted the “recipe” for the “Sawmill Gravy” made it this morning with scrambled eggs and biscuts…..YUMMY YUMMY…..very easy to make too, specially for someone who can’t make gravy to save her soul….
Well everyone have a great day….I’m off to the “2 big papers due today pits”
Purrs and stretches to all….
Hello everyone. We now have a place to live, but U-haul decided that our Vue wasn’t strong enough to pull the trailer that their website said we were good for.
Sooooo, now we have had to upgrade to a full truck and a trailer to haul the Vue behind us.
This falls under my rule of “Don’t trust anything will happen until it’s already done”
Hope everyone is having a good weekend. We now pick up the truck on Monday and we will hit the road on Tuesday.
I also have started a silly blog so if you want, check it out
Hi! Nice to hear from you!
Hope we hear more from you as you settle in. I will pray for traveling mercies for your family.
Good luck on the road and have a safe trip on your big move.
Just read your blog and enjoyed it. I now have Rachel Lucas on my favourites list thanks to your advice! Does Intuition get a chance to add her comments?
Of course she does, but she just usually prefers to look at what I write and shake her head at me
Good luck on your road trip to SF, Instinct and Intuition. Headbonks and purrs to your furry family.
Like your blog! I wish you and Intuition a safe trip and hope you get settled soon. Drive safely and watch out for the idiots on the road!
You have a gorgeous road trip ahead. Enjoy it. I cannot wait to see what influence San Fran has on your family and vice versa. It’s a beatiful city full of colorful people. Bon voyage! May the wind be at your back.
How wonderful to hear from the both of you!!! Tiger and I pray for your safe move!!!
Love Terri
BTW Purrs, headbonks, and sandpaper kisses from TigerButt!
Hope you are taking time to stop and view the sky in NM on the way. Would love a painting–I love oils in a size I could hang in the classroom. Art leads to writing, at least it works as a good start to a story. Please have a safe trip. Prayers of speed and safety to the whole family, and special prayers for the feline friends for a comfortable and peaceful trip.
She looks so shy… But I’m sure looks are decieving with her.
She’s lovely!
Pumkin Pie FUZZ
Bite Me fUZZ
We adopted a cat when a roommate mvoed out and left his cat, Charlie, behind. Charlie has been declawed and was also a biter, but we broke him of that habit. It’s easy, really: whenever he bit too hard, we’d just walk away and leave him alone. It didn’t take long at all for him to realize that a bite meant playtime was over. Three bites later he started playing nice.
Nowadays, sometimes he’ll start to bite and then catch himself, and instead he’ll lick us.
Good luck with your cute little pumpkin!
i just started when they were babies and said no bite,then gave them a light little flick on the nose,now i only have to say no bite,or just no.
I’m in love! I’ll take a bite from this pumpkin any time.
Ahh, you stole my line! Delicious, isn’t she?
Hmmm - Dynia, The Glamor Girl with a Bite
How does that sound?
She is divine. I think she would rule any roost she would choose.
When Nutmeg was small she bit almost every night. Often around 3 - 4 am to let us know she was hungry. I did two things - changed her feeding to just prior to going to bed and kept a squirt gun on the night stand. She didn’t like getting a face full of water when she bit, so she learned quickly to get attention in gentler ways. Good luck!
Dynia, You are such a cutie!
But don’t bite your humans; it hurts them! If you have to bite something, bite some kittie toys! (Like a soft, fake mouse.) Happy Daily Kitten to you, my dear, a very deserving Sunday Honoree! 
Sandi, how’s your Purrday party going?
Really nice day. We had dinner at the stage station in Rock Creek which is a small community. It is a rustic log building with many antic farm implements as well as home things for decorations. I had soup and salad bar (they have a great salad bar with homemade bread) and I had huckleberry icecream pie for dessert. When they found out if was my birthday they gave me the pie and coffee for free. I brought back some pies so you all could have some.
OOOh, Huckleberry pie. I love huckleberry anything! Thanks, Sandi, and Happy Birthday!
Oh, so soft! Can I hold her?
Dynia is such a cute little fluffball. Love her soft colors.
A fiesty but oh so cute little baby girl! May the Lord bless you and Dinya always.
Another cutie.
Kittenmaster I am having trouble I have you on my Yahoo page. But the last 3 days it says no pictures for the last day or something like that have to click on the words Daily Kitten to get it to come up. Any ideas why Yahoo is doing this. You have my email address just send answer there. Thanks I sure do enjoy the daily kitten just makes my day.
When I get sad I look at pictures makes me smile. Keep up the good work. Adoring Fan , of The Daily Kitten. Thanks againl
Yahoo takes it’s feed from here: http://www.dailykitten.com/feed/ - which is up-to-date. So it looks like the problem is with Yahoo rather than with TDK. It’s very odd.
Whatever the prombem is, I’ve got it too!
–Thanks Kittenmaster–
It must be yahoo. I’m having the same problem.
It is a Yahoo problem. Yahoo isn’t picking up properly. This has happened before. Normally it straightens its self out in a few days.
Kathy, I have the exact same situation. My Yahoo page, where I usually click on TDK, says “no new items for 3 days.”
