Blest Sunday: BlogPaws

Published on June 7, 2015June 7, 2015 by Service Cats U.S.42 Comments

Well a Blest Sunday to you all. And based on yous comments, nun of ya’ be tired of hearin’ ‘bout BlogPaws, so weez gunna tell ya’ more today. After all, attendin’ was a huge blessin’ fur us and weez still reapin’ da rewards of dat blessin’. We need to stawrt a week afur we left tho’ so you unnewstand it all. Sis Lexi hadn’t been duin’ very good at all. She wuldn’t eat again, at least food. She ate her teaspoon of ham baby food dat mommy mixed hers meds in, but she wuldn’t eat anyfin’ else in da house. And twust me mommy was twyin’. She was dwinkin’ a lot and a little lethargic. She had long since quit playin’ wiff da cat twee which mommy was weally sad ‘bout. See sissy had always luvved to jump and climb and be high up too. And of course mommy had wanted a twee fur years afur we got one cuz she knew sissy wuld just luv it, so it weally hurt mommy to see sissy not getting’ to enjoy da cat twees we had been given.

dw4142 — Weez at home watchin’ mommy pack.

We didn’t wanna tell you all how bad it ws cuz mommy didn’t wanna be judged and called bad fings. See sumtimes when we be in da spotlight peeps fink they have da right to tell us how we oughtta do fings and ifin weez not do what they fink is wight then they can be weally mean. And mommy felt bad enuff. But she just knew ifin she kuld get Lexi on this twip fings wuld turn wound fur her. Nopawdy knows us like our mommy, and mommy knows dat sissy luvs to twavel and stay in motels. (They used to twavel sum when sissy was yunger.) Mommy sez ifin she kuld afford it we wuld stay in a motel one weekend a mumff cuz it duz her so much good. Anyways, da day came fur us to leave. It was mommys birffday so we was hangin’ out wiff mommy watchin’ her pack up. Then it came time to load us up. Since we live so faw fwum everyfin’ mommy combines twips, so da only place we been goin’ lately (or so it seemed) was da VET. And we wanted no pawrt of dat.

dw4214 — I didn’t wanna be in da stroller wiv Dezi and she didn’t want me there eeber. Yep weez purretty spoiled.

So when mommy stawted puttin’ us in da stwoller we stawrted actin’ out and hissin’. We didn’t wanna be anywhere near each udder. Usually we twavel weally well in da stwoller togedder, but not this time. So mommy had to get da udder carrier outta da closet. So we finally got loaded up and we was off. And altho’ weez not usually sing in da car, we was tellin’ mommy all ‘bout why we didn’t wanna go to da VET. Mommy kept tellin’ us we wasn’t but we wasn’t so sure we oughtta believe her. Course it’s a lot of twubble to holler constantly so we didn’t sing fur too long, and as we told ya’ yesfurday, we ran into funnerstowms and dat shut us up purretty quick. By da time we got to our furst stop we knew da VET wasn’t in line fur this twip but we wasn’t fur sure what was actually goin’ on. Ifin yous missed our car twip, click here, cuz now weez gunna go stwaight to our BlogPaws arrival.

So da day we arrived, we got checked into our hotel room and got our bags put in da room and we went back downstairs to check in. Dat’s when we got this pawsum “swag bag” and mommy got a t-shirt. Lexi and me was checkin’ it all out fwum inside da stwoller. And we saw this giant doggy wiff pink and purrple fur. OMC da fings hoomans do to us. It ain’t wight, it just ain’t wight. Anyways, after getting’ this pawsum swag bag we ran into sum furiends and visited a few minutes afur adjoirnin’ to da exhibit hall/room.

There were tables side by side all over dat big room. So many in fact dat mommy didn’t weally know where to stawt. And so she just stawted at da furst table she came too. Mommy was pushin’ us along and there were so many peeps everywhere there was barely any room fur us. Every once in a while sumpawdy wuld ask mommy ifin we was doggies and then look in and tell us how cute we was. Mommy opened da stwoller a few times so peeps kuld pet us, and pawently so da doggies kuld sniff and bawk at us. Fur da most pawrt most of da animals there were very well behaved, but there was a few dat weally needed to go back to school, and so did their hoomans.

dw4156 — Meez lookin’ out da slidin’ door in our room onto da balcony.

There was even a big enclosure wiff fake munny dat mommy got in. See mommy stepped in and they closed da door and turned on a fan. Mommy was posed to gather as much of dat paper munny as she kuld as fast as she kuld. OMC Yous shulda seen how cwazy mommy looked twyin’ to gwab paper mummy. Mommy wuld have fweaked out ifin sumpawdy had of taken a foto of her, so no…there’s no fotos. At da time da camera’s were still packed away anyways and needed rechawign’. Weez not have extwa batteries and weez use da cameras a lot so da batteries not hold a chawge fur very long anymore. Not complainin’ here, just statin’ why we don’t have fotos of everyfin’. Altho’ as me stated, there wasn’t gunna be any fotos of mommy lookin’ cwazy. MOL Mommy caught sumfin’ like almost $400.00, but she wasn’t even close to da highest catcher who was at $1000.00. To be honest, weez not even member what da purrize was. MOL

dw4202 — What’cha duin’ on da balcony wiffout me mommy?

Anyways after dat bit of fun, we went on to da next table and da next. And dat’s where we ran into da Tiki Cat and Weruva peeps. They make foods dat be low in phosphorous and good fur sissy to eat wiff hers kidney purroblem. They gave us sum sample packets and talked wiff mommy fur a while and finally it was time fur da exhibitors to shut down. At da end of da evenin’ mommy took us up to da room and got us unpacked and settled in. And then mommy got out one of those packets of noms and offered it to Lexi. She came flyin’ off da bed and stawrted chowin’ down like she was stawrvin’. She finished off one packet and asked fur anudder which mommy was glad to give her. Just as mommy suspected, da twip was stawrtin’ to pep sis Lexi up. Later…well me just wealized how long this posty alweady is, so me will tell ya’ more later. We awe so extremely blest to have such pawsum furiends here in da world of da innewnet. Take a few moments to count yous blessings today and everyday. When you stawt yous day wiff gwatitude it’s just better all da way wound.

dw Lexi balcony door — Okay letz go back in and habz anudder one of those wunnerful food packages mommy.

Till da next time…………………………………Be BLest!!!

On The Road

Published on June 6, 2015June 6, 2015 by Service Cats U.S.51 Comments

Meowllo everypawdy hope yous all plannin’ a pawsum weekend. Weez still restin’ up here. MOL But we purromised to tell you all ‘bout da dwivin’ pawrt of our twip to BlogPaws so dat’s zactly what weez gunna do. And weez also gunna join up wiff Rascal and Rocco fur da Pet Pawade Blog Hop. So anyways, as you all know we was meetin’ up wiff our fellow Oklahoma bloggers fwum Angel Prancer Pie and goin’ on to Nashville wiff them. They live bout a 4 hour dwive fwum us and wanted to leave early Fursday meownin’. So Ms. Tonya was pawsum enuff to put us up in a local motel Wednesday night so we wuld all be there and weady to leave furst fing Fursday meownin’.

We wasn’t in any rush to get off Wednesday, but since it was mommys birffday she had planned on us leavin’ wound 1 dat day so weez kuld get there and get a good nights sleep. And she wanted to pick up a bite to eat to celebwate. But as usual, we was late getting’ off. And when mommy twied to load us up neevew of us wanted any pawrt of dat. Sis Lexi gave mommy da “I’z not wanna go to da VET” hiss, and me followed suit. But mommy didn’t pay any attention to eevew of us and loaded us up anyways. And then furty miles fwum home we found closed roads and detours. You all member da floodin’ we got duwin’ da mumff of May wight? Well our stweet had been closed most of da mumff, and now so was da innewstate. So we had to detour almost immediately. And zactly what mommy didn’t want to happen, is what happened. Pig trails here we come. Finally 3 hours later we was half way to our destination and da rains fell. And they fell so stwong dat mommy kuldn’t even see out da fwunt window. Fankfully since mommy didn’t know what we might run into she had made us stay in da stwoller so we wasn’t out runnin’ wound da car. Well we finally awwived at our destination and Ms. Tonya gave us diwections so we kuld get into our room and settled fur da night. All in and mommy wealized she didn’t have anyfin’ to dwink, so she was leavin’ out to find a store and…there was Ms. Tonya. They hugged and squealed and exchanged “good to finally meet ya’s,” and they visited a bit and then we were all callin’ it a night.

Bwight and early da next meownin’ mommy packed us up again so we kuld head out to Nashville. We all got loaded up and our car went to Ms. Tonya’s and we was off. Guess we shulda figgered out by then we wasn’t goin’ to da VET, but weez just kuldn’t be sure so we was still givin’ mommy da “don’t wanna go” hiss. When we finally hit da highway mommy opened da stwoller so we kuld get out and use da pawdee box and get a dwink or snack ifin we wanted. By this time we was actin’ like childwen mommy sez and when me wuld touch Lexi or she wuld touch me we hissed to let mommy know dat da udder was “touchin’” us. MOL And yes, da pawdee box wus in da floor board and mommy had a syringe and bottle of water fur dwinks and sum snacks in hers purrse. Mommy sez she can’t make dat long of a twip wiffout needin all of those fings so she dusn’t spect us to eevew. We wasn’t too faw down da highway when me had to use da pawdee box and stink da car up. So we just pulled over and mommy scooped out da offendin’ “deed” and fwu it out. We was off again. Udder than a few hisses back and forff we didn’t have much to say duwin’ da twip. But mommy and Ms. Tonya and Ms. Samantha had purrlenty to talk ‘bout. They chatted most of da way. And nopawdy had to stop, get out and wait on us fur pawdee box bweaks, we just went when we needed too and mommy helped lift us back out.

Me did a lot of out da window watchin’ on da twip there, and sissy did a lot of nappin’. On da way home weez left early again, only this time sis Lexi did a lot of out da window watchin’ and me did da nappin’. Mommy kept noddin’ off on da way home like me. But when da hoomans stawrted talkin’ ‘bout getting’ closer to home sissy had to pipe in every once in a while and give ‘em hers 2 cents worff. Again, Ms. Tonya was so kind and let us stay da night so we kuld get up da next day and get on da road all rested up. And fank catness she did, cuz it had stowmed da whole time we was gone and there was even more roads closed comin’ back.

: I’z got to uze da pawdee box, ‘skuze me.

OMC we got ‘bout an hour and a half fwum home and pawently da lake had flooded anudder major highway. We was detoured to Texas, da state, not a town. We almost dwopped in fur a visit awnty Ann. MOL Anyways, we got down to da furst town and wealized they was gunna detour us all da way to Dallas, so we turned wound and came back up to Oklahoma. Least these pig trails awe ones we know. MOL On da way down one of da little two lane weally one lane pig twails we saw tons of peeps pulled off da side of da road wiff their fishin’ poles. No, these places awe not fishin’ holes. And till May they were all dwy as a desert. But da rains had filled in every empty space wiff little ponds and lakes and batches of water; and pawently fish. Rednecks, give us a flood and we go fishin’. Anyways, weez finally got ‘bout 30 minutes fwum home and we kuld feel mommys ‘citement and weez stawrted singin’ da hallelujah chorus. When we finally got home we all so exhausted mommy barely got da car unloaded and showered and we all cwashed. We were so glad to be home. But you know what? We also wished dat BlogPaws had lasted even longer. Ifin we hadn’t had so much fun we wuldn’t have been so tired. It was cwazy busy, goin’, goin’, goin’, but we luvved every minute of it. And since bein’ back, sis Lexi has been actin’ like a kitten again. Weez’ll tell ya’ more ‘bout dat in future posties.

So, Till da next time………………………………Be Blest!!!
