Dezi eat Core shreds

 

          As you can see, chicken is not only the furst ingredient, it’s purretty much the only ingredient. Now, ya’ need to ‘member the Core Simply Shreds are NOT a balanced meal. They are great fur addin’ to your pets normal meal as a topper or even a special treat. Ya’ know, maybe ya’ wanna give kitty a midnight snack, but ya’ want somethin’ a little healthier than a handful of treats. These toppers would be a great option. They come in a case of 12) 1.75 ounce packets, 4 flavors and cost $13.99 a case. They also have these fur the doggies. I’s should also tell ya’ the packets are full of water. That’s good fur helpin’ to keep kitty hydrated, but mommy says ya’ better be careful and open ‘em over the sink. She didn’t do that the furst time and had to mop befur we could eat. Never a good idea to tempt kitty and make us wait while you clean house. 

 

 Dezi looks over at Raena from her plate of Core shreds

 

 

That’s fur sure Raena. We could smell that chicken just callin’ our names; and waitin’ fur mommy to finish moppin’ was just torture. Me couldn’t wait to check it out when mommy furinally served us. Me licked up all that tasty chicken water.

 

 Dezi eats Core Shreds while Raena looks on

 

 

          You sure did sissy. I’s waited ever so patiently fur mine’s turn to test it out. By the time you furinally let me try it, all that was left was shreds of chicken. You didn’t leave me, not one frop of that chicken flavored water. Fanky fankfully, mommy saw that and added some fur me. It was all purretty tasty ifin ya’ ask me. I’s would fur sure give the Wellness Core Simply Shreds 3 paws up. What ‘bout you sissy? 

 

 Dezi eats Core shreds while Raena looks on

I’s think it’s mine’s turn now sissy. Don’t you?

Me thought the water was quite tasty. And, me did come back later and eat a few shreds. They weren’t too bad, so me would give ‘em 3 paws up as well. Me meowed with mommy a bit and she says, she’d give ‘em a thumb up cuz we both ate them and they’re a one ingredient treat. But only 1 thumb, cuz of the mess while opening them, and she said those little shreds are kind’a hard fur us kitties to actually eat. Seems we made a bit of a mess outside the plate. So, mommy not only had to mop, but she also had to run the sweeper over the area around our plates. And, mommy thinks they’re a little on the costly side fur what ya’ get. All in all, 6 paws and a thumb is purretty good.

          Sure ‘nuff sissy. And of course, there’s also the box. You know we luvs us a Chewy box. And, we luvs Chewy. They offur great purroducts at great purrices with furee speedy shippin’ on all orders $49.00 and up, every day. They have a pawsum auto ship program that insures you never run out of your pets favorite noms, litter or whatever. But don’t worry, you can always skip, cancel or delay anytime. And you can also add things to or take things out of your auto deliveries. You’ll get an email in purrlenty of time to make any changes ya’ need befur the ship date. Trust us, this is somethin’ mommy luvs. And of course, we can’t say enuff good things ‘bout Chewy’s customer service peeps. They still believe, the customer’s always right. That’s a hard quality to find these days. 

 

Raena gets love while wearing her red dress

Furry Memories On Monday

MeOW and welcome to a memory filled Monday. That’s right, today all across the blogosphere we’re takin’ a moment to ‘member those that have left this earthly realm. We know you might have come here today fur our Service Cat Monday posty, and we hope you’ll join us next Monday when we’ll pick up where we last left off. But, today is a very special day; and havin’ lost a great luv, we decided to take part in Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day. Altho’ we don’t believe in this Rainbow Bridge, we do believe in heaven, and that our luvved ones move on to a better place when they leave us.

 

Lexi at 16 years old in mommy's lap
I luvz minez mommy even more today

 

 

Our furst memory today is of sis Lexi, mommy’s beluvved Service Cat and me’s much luvved sisfur. We miss her somethin’ fierce and hate that she had to go. Fur 17 years sis Lexi never left mommy’s side. Fur seven of those years, she was the bestest sisfur this girly could have ever asked fur. Sis Lexi was an Alpha cat from the minute she was born. Even tho’ she was the boss, she was almost always gentle ‘bout puttin’ me in me’s place. A lot of peeps only saw a black tabby cat when they looked at her. But to mommy and me, she was the most bootyful soul that ever lived. Even in her last days, she remained the majestic Empress and dutiful Service Cat. She could barely stand on her own four paws, but each day she was there to help mommy get her day started and end her days with luvvin’ massages. We will never unnerstand why she had to leave us; but, we’ll always ‘member her with a smile and luv in our hearts.

     We will at that sweet Dezi. Some days are better than others, but there will always be a hole in my heart that belonged to my beautiful Lexi. Good night my love, we will meet again. Lexi and I had known loss. Too much if you ask me, but God knows things I don’t. Even knowing that I would have to lose my precious fur babies, I wouldn’t have wanted to live my life without them. Before Dezi joined our family, Lexi and I had 5 great years with the very handsome Ragamuffin, Ransom. Bless his heart, he was all boy, all the time. He broke his leg when he was about 6 months old being rambunctious and throwing caution to the wind in his play. Just as his leg healed, he developed a severe UTI and his heart murmur got worse. He held on and fought to live four more years before leaving us for heaven. A piece of my heart will always belong to that fluffy little black kitty boy.

 

 

Lucky and Lexi lay in their window perches

Lucky and Lexi enjoyed their window perches. They laid side by

side for hours, daily.

 

 

     Before Ransom, there was Lucky, Lucky Luciano to be accurate. Altho’ named after a mobster, Lucky was the sweetest, most good natured Siamese I’d ever known. Born exactly 28 days before Lexi, they had grown up together and had a bond that almost killed her when he left. He was a gentle giant that loved spending time with me and his sisfur. He and Lexi were the first Service Cats to learn to drive the wheelchair. Nothing scared him. He was adventurous and giving. He regularly stepped back and let the gluttonous Lexi, who had scarfed down her meal, take his. He knew there would always be more. That mommy would always make sure he had plenty and never went hungry. He developed a sudden UTI that had him completely blocked. Unfortunately, my ignorance and lack of money cost him his life. I so miss his curious little apple headed face poking around the corner to spy on me. His journey to heaven left Lexi and me lost for years. When Lucky left, he took a big chunk of our hearts with him. I like to believe Lexi and Lucky are together again, waiting for me to join them in the happy hereafter.

 

 

Devon and Lucky

This is Devon and Lucky and Lexi hangin’ out together

 

     Devon, a boxy Himilayan, was an only cat when I decided to start fostering kittens for the rescue group that brought me Lucky and Lexi. He was such a good natured laid back boy, that he took it all in stride. He was a great Service Cat, and even liked to play daddy to the kittens I brought in. We fostered motherless kittens. Even when they would yell all night and keep us awake for weeks at a time, he would still coddle and bathe them and teach them how to be a cat. A brain tumor took him away much too young. Every time I see a kitty curled up in a sink, I smile and remember my sweet Himi boy. Altho’ he is missed, I’m grateful he’s no longer in pain and confused. 

 

 

Shad in Crossing Over frame with poem

Shad, the original Service Cat

 

 

     I end my memories today with my faithful Shad, my first Service Cat. She was the original, and there will never be another like her. She and I had a hard life, but a life filled with love and devotion. It was her love and devotion for me that caused her to take action and train herself to help me after my accident. She was remarkable, silly, and her love knew no bounds. Whether we lived in our car or had a home with rooms and stability, she was happiest just being with me. She brought me thru some of the worst times in my life and taught me to love and trust again. She will always be missed. Again, at five years old, she was taken from this world far too soon. But, her legacy lives on in each cat that came after her. Good Night my sweet babies, we will be together again. And until that day, your love pushes me onward and fills our home. You will forever be remembered.

Me and sis Lexi luvved each other and mommy dearly

 

 

Thank you fur sharin’ the legacy of your Service Cats mommy. Me and Raena have some big paws to fill. Me is so grateful fur all the kitties who came befur me. They have helped shape and educate me’s mommy to be the mommy she is today. While she doesn’t know everythin’, their lives and losses has caused her to research and never give up. We don’t like to say good bye, cuz we know we will all be together again someday. So, till then, it’s not good bye, but Good Night. We’ll meet you all by the River of Life, when the Son calls us home. We wanna fank you all fur lettin’ us share these wonderful memories with you all today. Purrlease join us next Monday when our regularly scheduled Service Cat Monday posts will return. Check out me’s posty ‘bout sis Lexi at the Tabby Cat Club and while you’re there, check out everypawdy else’s memories too.

Blest Sunday: Purrayer Changes Things

Raena, STOP!!! Don’t Touch Me!!! Me doesn’t feel good. 

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

          So, I’s don’t feel so good mine’s self.

  

 Dezi watches Raena atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

Then stop it and let’s just lay down and have some quiet time.

 

          But sissy, mommy says ifin ya’ don’t feel good, you should keep doin’ your normal stuffs and it’ll help make ya’ feel better. And ‘sides, mommy’s been layin’ hands on us and purrayin’ over us a lot. 

 

Yep Raena, we’re blest to have a mommy who luvs us so much. Bet me’s tummy and hiney-bo still hurts. 

 

          Why do ya’ reckon we’re sick sissy? 

 

 Dezi sniffs the Yeowww nip toys

 

 

How should me know Raena. Does me look like the all seein’ eye or somethin’? 

 

          What’s an all seein’ eye sissy?

 

 

It’s just a…Oh, never mind. Mommy’s looked all over the house and checked everythin’ we could have pawssibly eaten over the last week, or gotten into, and can’t find anythin’ that should have caused us both to get the runny runs. Least not this bad. Me’s so tired of havin’ me’s bloomers cleaned. Me could go the rest of me’s life and never miss that. 

 

 Raena lays on chair back

 

 

          You sure do sound mean when mommy’s helpin’ ya’ get that stinky runny stuffs off your furs sissy. I’s never heard such growlin’ and hissin’ in all mine’s life. I’s don’t think you’ve ever hissed at me quite that bad. 

 

Well, it hurts. Me’s hiney-bo is so sore that even the Charmin feels like sandpaper. Me just hopes all this stops soon or mommy’ll be packin’ us off to the VET. 

 

 Raena lays on the floor and looks at the camera

 

 

          The VET!!! No Way!!! I’s never wanna go back there again!!! Ya’ know what sissy? I’s bet ifin we were to ask all our amazin’ furiends to join mommy in purrayin’ fur us, we’d be feelin’ better in no time. 

 

Me bets you’re right Raena. We have the mostest pawsumest furiends in the universe. They luv and care ‘bout us enuff that me’s sure they’d purray fur us. Mommy says fankfully, we’re still eatin’ and drinkin’ normally, and while we might not be up to zoomin’ thru the house, we’re still actin’ a bit playful. She’s not seen any parasites on us or in our litterbox depawsits, so she can only deduce that somethin’ has really upset our tummy tum tums. ‘Specially since both of us are havin’ the same issues. 

 

 Raena lays in mommy's lap for some lap loving time

 

 

          That’s true sissy. But, I’s just know we’re gonna feel better soon. When we woke up today mr. sunshine was smilin’ down on us and the weather’s startin’ to cool off a bit. With our furiends joinin’ mommy in purrayer, we can only get better.

 

 Dezi lays in chair and looks pretty

 

 

Me believes ya’ Raena. Each day is a blessing even when we’re a little under the weather. We’re so blest to have a luvvin’ mommy, great furiends, an amazin’ furever home and yummy noms. We wanna remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. Even when you feel like you’re livin’ under a rain cloud in the dark, you are blest. 

 

 

 Dezi rolls around on the Yeowww nip heart

 

 

          So true sissy. Every breath we take is a blessing. Now, let’s try to pose fur selfie or two so we can link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. And, maybe you’ll feel up to playin’ fur a bit? Wha’d’ya’ say sissy, wanna go play with our Yeaowww nip toys?

  

Till the next time…………………………………………….Be Blest!!!

Hydrating Your Best Feline Friend

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s Me, RaenaBelle. Kittens!!!  Have we been busy or what?. 

 

 Dezi and Raena bathe atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

          What are you meowin’ ‘bout Raena? 

 

Well sissy, me was meowin’ ‘bout how busy we’ve been. Ya’ know, tryin’ out all the new noms and stuffs?. 

 

          Yeah Raena, that has been fun. We do enjoy tryin’ new things. Weruva contacted us ‘bout their new impurroved gravy luvver’s line a while back. Knowin’ how much we luv gravy, mommy said we’d luv to give those noms a try.

 

 

 

This is a sponsored post. We received the Weruva B.F.F. noms in exchange for our honest review. As always, we tell it like we see it. Weruva isn’t responsible for the opinions in this post unless otherwise stated. No money changed paws. We only bring products we have tried or use and think would be of interest to you, our readers and friends.

 

 Raena checks out Weruva

 

Sure ‘nuff sissy. In honor of International Cat day which just passed and Healthy Cat Month which takes place next month, we thought this would be the purrfect time to purrticipate with Weruva’s launch of the all new B.F.F. line that will be Gluten, Grain and Carrageenan Free. The B.F.F. stands fur Best Feline Friend. We’re fur sure mommy’s bestest furiends, feline or not. And, you know how much all our pawrents worry ‘bout ingredients and us gettin’ purr-opurr nutrition. And cat pawrents go a step further and worry ‘bout whether or not us kitties are gettin’ enuff water/hydration. 

 

 Raena checks out Weruva

 

 

          Yep Raena, and me’s here to tell ya’ that not drinkin’ enuff can sure lead to some painful purroblems, like UTI’s (Urinary Tract Infections). But, as anypawdy who has a kitty knows, we can be a finicky bunch. So, not only should our food be nutritional and balanced, it better taste good, or else we won’t touch it with a ten foot pole. Anyways, Weruva sent us a great little variety pack to try out. Unfurtunately, it was delivered to one of our neighbors who happened to be in the hospital so we didn’t get it till this week. Once we got the noms, mommy and you purrceeded to check ‘em all out. As everypawdy knows, mommy doesn’t let us have any kibble. It’s full of unnecessary carbs our feline bodies can’t purrocess and can contribute to obesity and those painful UTI’s.

 

Raena checks out the WEruva

 

 

Not to worry sissy. The B.F.F line is over 85% hydration, what with all that gravy and such. Weruva also claims that each can/pouch contains shreds/chunks/bites of real meat protein that will entice and be appealing to our taste buds. Cats in the wild, and our big cat cousins get most of their hydration from the food they eat; so a kitty eatin’ dry kibble is missin’ out on that much needed hydration. The B.F.F. line comes in cans and pouches and sizes ranging from 2.8 ounces to 5 ounces. And they have both sea proteins and land proteins.

 

 Weruva BFF cat food

 

 

          That’s a good thing too Raena, cuz we don’t purrticularly like the sea purroteins. So, the furst plate we tried was Selfie Cam, chicken and lamb dinner in gravy. Check out the ingredients list offured by Weruva:

 

INGREDIENTS:

Chicken Broth, Chicken, Lamb, Tuna, Potato Starch, Guar Gum, Calcium Lactate, Tricalcium Phosphate, Choline Chloride, Taurine, Zinc Sulfate, Vitamin E Supplement, Thiamine Mononitrate (Vitamin B1), Niacin Supplement (Vitamin B3), Calcium Panthotenate, Vitamin A Supplement, Potassium Iodide, Manganese Sulfate, Riboflavin Supplement (Vitamin B2), Pyridoxine Hydrochloride (Vitamin B6), Ferrous Sulfate, Copper Sulfate, Vitamin D3 Supplement, Folic Acid, Vitamin B12 Supplement, Menadione Sodium Bisulfite Complex (Source of Vitamin K)

          Now, as you all know our mommy checks out any ingredient she can’t purrnounce or doesn’t know ‘bout. So, she’s not happy ‘bout the source of Vitamin K, but said it was okay to try out the noms this time. The gravy tasted purretty good. At least good enuff fur 2 paws up. what ‘bout you Raena? 

 

 Raena eats Weruva

 

 

Well sissy, I’s wouldn’t really know ‘bout the gravy since you ate most of it. But the lamb bites were okay and what little gravy I’s did get was good. I’s didn’t care too much fur the second one we tried with all the punkin’ pieces. But overall, I’s good with givin’ ‘em 2 paws up too. As sissy said, the Vitamin K source is somethin’ mommy tries to avoid, so the B.F.F. won’t be a staple in our house, but mommy did say we could have some on occasion.

 

 Raena eats wet food

 

 

Hydration is so ‘purrtant fur us kitties that our humans must offen go to great lengths to make sure we get enuff. Adding a high quality wet food to your kitty’s diet is a great way to help keep kitty hydrated and chase away those nasty UTI’s. Don’t furget to check out the Weruva website and the new B.F.F. line of noms fur your favorite Best Feline Friend. I’s hear a nip toy callin’ mine’s name.
