Dezi: MeOW Hey Raena, did you enjoy that turkey tom lurkey last night? Me sure did. Me even stole a bite of mommy’s hawaiian roll. It was so tasty.
Raena: Oh sissy, I’s luvs, luvs, luvved mine’s turkey tom lurkey. And I’s stole the whole roll when mommy zoned out. I’s hate that she doesn’t feel good, but I’s just couldn’t pass up more of that tasty fanky Fanksgivin’ dinner. I’s sure hope mommy gets better soon.
Dezi: Me too Raena. Whatever she’s got sure came on fast. She said she felt fine yesfuday meownin’, but by the early afternoon she couldn’t even function. She had a really bad migraine and her throat was sore and she was runnin’ a fever and had the chills. (Dezi whispers to Raena)Me even thinks she might’ve peed her pants a time or two. But don’t tell anypawdy, she would be so embarrassed. When she furinally came ‘round and saw her empty plate, fanks to you, she just assumed she’d already had dinner and put the leftover turkey in the fridge. So, we had to lissen to her tummy growl all night long.
That was mommy’s tummy? I’s just thought you were in a bad mood sissy. I’s don’t think I’s got mine’s full sleep, I’s so tired today.
A bad mood? Why would me be in a bad mood? Me’s gotchaday fell on Fanksgivin’ and me got real turkey tom lurkey as a treat. And even tho’ mommy wasn’t feelin’ good, she gave me lots of extra luvvin’ and cuddles. Me’s day couldn’t have been more purrfect. Well, a stroll might have been the cream on top. But, me knew mommy wasn’t up to it, so me didn’t even ask.
A stroll would’a been great sissy, but that was very thoughtful of you to consider how mommy was feelin’. Maybe we can go fur strolls when she’s all better.
Me hopes so Raena. Do you realize Christmas is only a month away? Me can’t wait to go out lookin’ at Christmas lights.
And I’s can‘t wait fur our annual trip to the old folks home sissy. I’s had so much fun last year. The peeps luvved me. Oh Christmas, I’s can’t wait fur you to get here.
Me neither Raena. Let’s go check out the map and find the bestest houses to see where we wanna go.
Okay sissy, I’s just gonna link us up to Comedy Plus fur Feline Furiday right quick.
While you do that, me will just have a quick bath.
And me must tell you all, we’re tryin’ to get caught up with our visits, but mommy is really sick. Purrlease bear with us and have a Blest weekend.
Till the next time…………………………………………………..Be Blest!!!
Hey everypawdy, are ya’ there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Are ya’ll ready fur Fanky Fanksgivin’? I’s sure is. (Dezi walks up to Raena and nose bumps her) Hey sissy, are you ready fur tomorrow? You know we’re gettin’ a special treat cuz not only is it Fanky Fanksgivin’ but it’s also your gotchaday. By the way, do you know why mommy keeps snatchin’ me up and cryin’? She gets all mushy and soaks mine’s furs to mine’s skin. I’s swear, I’s had more baths the last couple of days than I’s had mine’s whole life.
She’s happy Raena. Don’t you ‘member her squealin’ like a banshee the other day? You know, when you slow blinked to her. You’re whole life she’s played the slow blink game and nuffin’. When you furinally slow blinked back mommy was beside herself with happiness.
Check out mine’s eyes. Aren’t they lookin’ pawsum?!!
Really? Mine’s slow blinkin’ makes mommy that happy? I’s didn’t do it befur cuz it hurt too bad. Ya’ know, always scratchin’. Scratch, scratch, scratchin’ mine’s eyes. Now that it doesn’t hurt anymore I’s just wanted mommy to know how much I’s luvs her. I’s never ‘magined she was gonna lose her marbles and get all mushy gushy fur days.
Purrlease Raena, you know how emotional mommy can be. Kittens, She can cry over a commercial.
Yeah that’s true sissy, I’s just didn’t know how ‘purrtant slow blinkin’ was to mommy. I’s always let her know how much I’s luvs her in other ways without her openin’ up the flood gates, so I’s just didn’t x’pect this. Guess it’s a good thing I’s like hugs and cuddles. How long do ya’ think this might last?
Who knows Raena. T’ween the guilt she feels fur not figgerin’ out what was wrong with your eyes sooner and the way you’ve been checkin’ everythin’ out like you’re seein’ it fur the very furst time, she could be gushin’ fur years.
Well sissy, I’s don’t blame mommy, she tried to help me and the minute she knew what was wrong and how to fix it, she did. I’s have so much to be fanky fankful fur. I’s one Blest kitty girl fur sure. And meowin’ of Blessings, tomorrow, we’ll be Giving Thanks fur the many Blessings we have.
We will Raena. Thanksgiving here in the U.S. is a day celebrated cuz of the fortune our ancestors found when they came across this amazing and fertile new world, America. And while we’re certainly grateful fur all of that and the fact that we were born here and are citizens of this great nation, we actually celebrate by Giving Thanks fur those Blessings we receive each day, like our home, our family and furiends, our health and so much more. Me purrsonally is very Fankful, cuz had mommy not saved me that Fanksgivin’ so long ago, me surely would have died.

Oh sissy, I’s fanky fankful mommy saved you and me both. And fanky fanks to awnty Cindy we’ll be havin’ our very own turkey tom lurkey to celebrate. Fanky fank you all fur your furiendship, luvs and supurrt. Our lives are richer and full cuz of all of you. We purray God keeps His hands on you and supplies all your needs. Sissy and me are sendin’ slow blinks and purrs your way and mommy A sends hugs.
Hey everypawdy, are ya’ out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. (Raena looks around and out the door and back into the living room. She sees Dezi washing her face after eating a few bites of breakfast and meows…) Hey sissy, is our innernets back on? I’s don’t know who keeps cuttin’ what, but I’s ‘bout tired of them cuttin’ our innernets. I’s asked mommy ifin she had furgotten to pay the bill or somethin’ cuz this was the 3rd time this month we’ve been offline.
Me knows Raena. It’s really frustratin’ when ya’ have things to do and no way to do ‘em and no answers as to why. We do seem to be back online, but who knows fur how long. Mommy’s counselor said she was told that somepawdy had cut one of the fiber optic lines and cut the innernets fur all of Southern Oklahoma the last time and this time. Y, Even the stores couldn’t opurrate cuz they’re credit card machines weren’t workin’. Me can only ‘magine what it would’a been like had it been black Furiday or Cyber Monday. (Dezi shakes her head)
Meowin’ of shoppin’ days sissy, I’s thought we’d post our Holiday Gift Guide picks today.
Great idea Raena. We’ve chosen some pawsum items fur the whole family.
Yep, and we tried to make sure we picked somethin’ in every price point. Ya’ know, not everypawdy has a lot of green papers to spend. We must let ya’ know that this posty contains a few affiliate links. That means ifin ya’ buy somethin’ usin’ our linky, we’ll get a small percentage so we can buy us some treats or somethin’. Mine’s furst pick are these really cool food and drink bowls.
Vivipet Ceramic Q-Bowl for Cats
1. Vivipet Ceramic Q Bowl and the Big Head Water Bowl fur cats or the Pawsome D Bowlsfur dogs: At $24.99, $26.99 and $34.99 for quality ceramic, they would make a great addition to any kitty or woofie’s meal time. And they come in 5 great colors.

Me thinks those are great Raena. Me’s been tryin’ to get mommy to get us a couple. Vivipet also has some great elevated feeders, cat grass containers, and toys. And me’s pick fur the cat luvvin’ humans:
Ifin you’re lookin’ fur a self cleaning litter box, this is our top pick. Easy set up, works with most clumping cat litters and any trash bags. No ongoing equipment or accessory expenses required. You can check out our review here.

Me’s next pick is one that almost all kitties luv:
4. The Yeowww Nip Banana: Cost: $4.95 Reward: Hours of fun fur kitty
At $4.95, even ifin you already have one, it’s great to have one in reserve. These nanners get lots of luvvin’ and need to be replaced occasionally. ‘Course, nanners aren’t all Ducky World (Yeowww) makes. Click the linky to check out other great Yeowww nip products. We even located them in the UK.

You are so right sissy. We should add that there’s no comparison, so don’t waste money on knock offs. Fur you kitties that don’t get any enjoyment from catnip, don’t worry, mine’s next pick is top of the line Silvervine:
At $11.99 this little tin should be kept out of kitty’s reach, it’s like kitty gold. We also hear from our good furiend Purrseidon, that CatABliss has some pawsum nip and vine mixes you might wanna try.
Oh Raena, that’s a furtastic pick. Me luvs nip, but the vine…is soooooo fine. Ya’ know, we’ve listed some great kitty gifts, human picks and even somethin’ fur the woofies; but we haven’t yet given ya’ our pick fur the mini humans with sticky fingers. Me’s pick fur the young’uns:
This pawsum little book will make a great gift fur boys and/or girls. Check out our review here.
I’s luvved readin’ Prancie’s book sissy. That’s a wonderful pick. (Raena leans in and whispers to Dezi) I’s was thinkin’ we could use our last 4 picks of this posty fur our priceless picks and then post the rest of our picks after Fanksgivin’. What do you think?
(Dezi nods and whispers back to Raena) Me agrees Raena, that sounds like another good plan.
Any plain box with a lid and smallish papers for short notes.
Okay furiends, our last 4 picks today are priceless, but can be given to anyone by anyone. Furst up:
7. Love Notes: Cost: Free to cheap Reward: Priceless
You’ll need a few pieces of paper cut into 3X3 squares/hearts/circles or any shape you’d like, or post it notes. You’ll also need a small box with a removable lid (shoebox/costume jewelry box, etc.). On each piece of paper, write down something luvving, like, I’s luvs you, You’re special, You’re purrfect, I’s like you, You’re mine’s bestest furiend, etc.. Once you have your luvs notes written down, put them in the box and wrap it. The recipient can pull out a luvs note anytime they need a little pick me up.
8. Luv Cuddles with Purrs: Cost: Free Reward: Priceless: Less stress and happy humans and kitties
This is me’s next pick. Mommy can never get enuff Luv Cuddles. She says all humans crave this attention from their kitties. You woofies can give Luv Cuddles too, you just don’t have the Purr pawrt. Maybe, you could add a bit of drool. Woofie humans seem to like that.
You’re right sissy, mommy does luvs Luvs Cuddles with Purrs.
9. Everlasting Gift Notes: Cost: Free Reward: Priceless Elation
You’ll need the same supplies as those fur Luvs notes, but this time, you’ll write an action you can purrform fur your recipient. Like ifin you’re a man gifting to a woman, you might say somethin’ like, I’s’ll wash the dishes after dinner tonight. Or, Good fur 1 free massage. Actually, that’d be a good one no matter who the giver or receiver is. Ifin you’re a kitty givin’ to your woofie housemate, you could say, No whacky paws across your nose fur 1 whole day. Just ‘member to not go overboard. Don’t purromiss somethin’ you can’t deliver. MOL
Or ifin you’re recipient is another kitty Raena, you could meow that you won’t pester your big sisfur fur one whole week. Anyways, our last pick today is:
There’s no place I’s would rather be than right here with you mommy.
10. Together Time: Cost: Free Reward: Priceless
Just spending time together can wipe away all the bads of the day. Turn off all the tech and spend time listening to each other.
Another great pick sissy. I’s know we’ll be givin’ mommy every one of our last 4 picks and I’s sure she’ll be givin’ ‘em right back. Fanky fankfully, she believes that True Luvs is the greatest gift of all and no amount of money can buy it. Guess we better wrap this up…MOL get it, wrap this up? Anyways…let’s try to get some visitin’ in. We can’t be sure how long we’ll have innernet right now, so we need to take full advantage when we do.
Till the next time…………………………………………………….Be Blest!!!
MeOW Hisssssss RaenaBelle!!! Stop jumpin’ on me!!! Mommy said you were gonna be nicer and less of a pain now that you aren’t in pain all the time. So what’s up with you?
I’s am nice sissy, I’s always nice. And, I’s not jumpin’ on you, I’s jumpin’ over you. Altho’ at the moment I’s not jumpin’ anywhere, I’s just sittin’ here. You’re the one with your bloomers in a twist.
We played around in the foto apps this weekend. This
is somethin’ called a squared pencil filter.
Me’s bloomers aren’t in a twist Raena. It’s Blest Sunday and time fur us to count our Blessings. Me will go furst. Pest or no, me’s glad that you’re feelin’ better and that your eyes are healin’ up well. Me’s also fankful fur your plans, you threw me a really great pawrty. Me’s fankful fur all our furiends; me’s pawrty wouldn’t have been the same without ‘em. And me got the cutest card in the snail mail from Valentine…fank you. Me also wants to say a meowsy big Fank you to PrincessErin fur me’s Birthday/Gotchaday gift. And of course, me’s always fankful fur mommy. Me’s one Blest kitty girl fur sure.
We both are sissy. I’s fanky fankfull fur all the luvs, suppurrt and purrayers I’s received durin’ mine’s surgery and now fur mine’s healin’. Mine’s eyes have never felt better; and, mommy says I’s more luvvin’ than ever . I’s can see clearly now and I’s luvvin’ it. I’s enjoyed the pawrty too. And, I’s so grateful fur you and mommy, ya’ll are just the bestest family any kitty could ever want. (Something catches Raena’s eyes outside and she runs to the small perch to see what it is.) Look’it sissy, a squirrel. He keeps runnin’ back and forth from tree to tree.
He’s purrparin’ fur winter Raena. He’s purrobably tryin’ to collect enuff nuts to keep himself fed when it gets really cold outside. Fank goodness we don’t have to do that. Did you see the bunny that hopped past earlier?
I’s got in on the foto editin’ too. This is somethin’ called a recursion filter.
I’s missed him sissy. Why didn’t you call me? Ya’ know, ifin mommy would just let us outside, we could’a had fresh rabbit fur Fanksgivin’.
Sure we could Raena…like you know the furst thing ‘bout huntin’ bunny rabbits.
Well at least we could’a tried sissy. Ya’ never know when ya’ just might get lucky. MOL Anyways, you know Fanksgivin’ is Fursday, right? That means Christmas is only a few short weeks from now. While visitin’ one of our furiends the other day, we learned of this cool app that will let us gather our furiends info so we can send them Christmas cards. So, we’d like to ask all of you to click here and fill in your info. It’s totally free and private. We’ll be the only ones who can see your infurmation. And of course, we’ll never share your purrsonal info with anyone or use it to annoy you.
Another of Raena’s plans, huh? Well, me guesses far as plans go, this one’s purretty good. You just might be purretty good at makin’ plans after all Raena. Me can’t wait fur Christmas. You need to put on that thinkin’ cap of yours and help me come up with a great gift to give mommy.
Now that’s a great plan sissy. Furst tho’, I’s thinkin’ we should post our Gift Guide next week. You know, just in case peeps wanna shop those Black Furiday or Cyber Monday sales to get gifts fur their luvved ones and favorite furries.
Sounds good to me Raena. Let’s wrap this up and get to shoppin’. As we do each week, we’d like to remind you to take a minute today and every day to Give Thanks fur the Blessings in your lives. Fank you all fur bein’ Blessings in ours.
Befur we go, let’s not furget to link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. I’s meow dibs on mommy’s lap, You can lay on the arm of the chair beside us sissy.
Sure Raena, ifin you can get there befur me. And no fair jumpin’ on me.
Till the next time………………………………………………………Be Blest!!!
