I Audra, am the human behind Service Cats U.S. aka DezizWorld. I am disabled and use cats as service animals instead of dogs. They are just as capable and can perform duties other animals cannot. We started our online journey to bring awareness to the ability of cats and to help others understand the relationship between a service animal and their handler/person. We offer training tips and tricks that I have learned through the years along with other information on all things feline. We began this journey in 2014 with Lexi and Dezi. They have since gone on to heaven, but our journey continues. This blog is about our daily life from the kitty's point of view. I want this blog to be interactive and get to know all of you, so comment and visit often. I will also offer advice, training tips and education when possible.

Meowllo everypawdy!!!  Did yous all make it fwu da festivities and pawties and hoopla of da new year?  We had a nice quiet evenin’ at home cuddlin’ in da new year wiff mommy.  We turned off da puter and just spent sum quality time bein’ togedder.  You know it’s gotten weally cold here lately, so snugglin’ is weally high on ow list.  After all isn’t dat what mommy’s awe fur?  Yesfurday wuz 21 degwees wiff a chill factor of 17.  Dat’s cold fur us. Weez know sum of yous in da single digits and below, but weez hope we don’t get dat this year.  Weez can hope.  MOL  So anyways, today mommy had to get out and go up town fur a bit.  We had da door closed so we didn’t weally know how cold it wuz outside.  Da neighbor and Buddy’s daddy wuz wheelin’ wound outside in hims short sleeve t-shirt and no shoes.  Course hims duz dat all year wound, so we shuldn’t hav paid any tention to hims, but we fawt it must mean it wuz a little warmer today.  

Meez helpin' mommy on da puter.
Meez helpin’ mommy on da puter.

So mommy called da fawmacy to make sure she wusn’t gettin’ out fur nuffin’, and all wuz a go.  She gwabbed hers coat and put on hers shoes and then looked at me and sed, “Okay Dezi, let’s get goin’.”  Me stwetched a bit and she opened da fwunt door and…OMC me kuld feel da cold to meez bones.  Fur coat or not dat wuz just ungodly cold.  Me turned wight wound and went back in fwunt of da lectric fireplace.  Mommy giggled and then sed in da sweet mommy voice, you know da one, hers sed, Dezi, oh sweet Dezi.  Like me didn’t know what wuz goin’ on.  Me knows she wants sumfin’ when she uses dat voice.  She kep it up, Dezi she sed, sweetheart, honey, awe you gunna go to town wiff mommy, she sed.  Hmmpht Yous finks me wants to go out in dat cold?  Awe yous cwazy?  Dat’s zactly what me wuz finkin’.  Mommy musta went nuts over night ifin she fawt me wanted to leave da warmff of da house to go up town.  Purrlease, what’s to see?  And then she laid it on weally fick.  She put on da pouty face and looked over at me and sed Dezi dawlin’, me knew what wuz comin’ nex, she wanted me to hop up in da stwoller.  Me looked at hers and squeeked.  And then me put on da pouty face.  MOL  You know, 2 can play dat game.  Me fawt surely she wuz kiddin’, she didn’t weally wanna get out in at cold, did she?  It wus so cold dat all da humidity and condensation had turned to ice.  Mommy looked at me and laffed.  She sed, “Oh sweet Dezi, I was just kidding, I’m fine and not going to be gone that long.  I wasn’t goin’ to ask you to get out in this anyways.  Whew Me wuz sure glad she didn’t want me to go.  

At least weez not hav snow.
At least weez not hav snow.

She went to get hers purse, and me fawt ’bout it and went and hopped in da stwoller.  When mommy got back up fwunt she saw me in da stwoller and sed, “Aaaw Sweety I relly appreciate it, but really, I’m only going to be a few minutes and it would take a lot longer to take you than to just run up town by myself this time.”  Me always worries when mommy decides to go sumwhere wiffout me, but when it’s these small little twips me dusn’t worry as much.  Mommy left and wuz back home afur me kuld even close meez eyes and fall into nap land again.  But she wuz cold fwum da top of her head to da tippy toes.  So after she put everyfin’ down and took off hers coat, sis Lexi and me did a cuddlefest and warmed hers back up.  So twu to da silly superstition, we spent ow first day of da new year duin’ zactly what we did when da clock stwuck midnight, cuddlin’ wiff mommy.

Happy New Year!!!  Hope you all had a fun and safe New Years Eve.  And dat there awen’t too many headaches today.  Me has anudder Chewy.com weview.  Cuz of da holidays and sum mix ups we didn’t get ow box till this week, so we didn’t hav da chance to twy ow udder item out weally well till last night.  We got a bag of Primal Freeze Dried Beef Liver Munchies.  Now we had hoped to twy da turkey cat food cuz we don’t weally go fur da liver noms.  So we wuz gunna wecwuit Buddy fur this weview but it wuz too cold fur mommy to get out and up to hims pawtment. MOL  It wuz only 21 degwees.  But da wedder app sed it felt like 17, and mommy sed it sure did.  So anyways back to da tweats.  Mommy opened da bag and of course as wiff most fweeze dwied tweats they wuz a little bigger than kitty bite size.  So mommy bwoke a piece up and gave it to me.  Me did zackly what mommy spected, and walked away.  So as fur me, no surpwise, all paws down.  Next it wuz sis Lexi’s turn.  Again mommy took a piece and bwoke it up into smaller pieces and Lexi went in fur da smell.  She ate a foo bites and left da rest.  So paws up fwum Lexi.

Now how ’bout fwum mommy.  Da ingwedients awe weal simple, just Beef Liver.  Dat always makes mommy happy when da ingwedient list is readable and limited.  It’s a nice 2 ounce package so dat makes mommy happy too.  They come in several diffewent flavors, and awe weasonably purriced fur whatcha’ get.  So they do make mommy happy.  But not sumfin’ she wuld buy, since we wo’t scawff ’em down.  They awe good fur boff kitties and doggies since they only hav da one ingwedient.  You can check ’em out here, and all da udder pawsum fings Chewy has.  Now we didn’t get any gween papers fur this, just da bag of tweats.  And as you can tell fwum ow weview dat didn’t sway ow opinion not one bit.  When it warms up a little weez gunna let Buddy giv ’em a twy.  And fur those of you hoo awe new here, Buddy is ow furiend here at da pawtments.  Hims lives wiff hims daddy a foo pawtments away.

Well meez gunna wrap it up fur today and let you all enjoy da new year.  Hope yous all hav a pawsum day.

Published on by Service Cats U.S.46 Comments

Meowllo everypawdy.  We awe anudder day closer to a new year.  We left off yesfurday walkin’ down memowy lane, wiff us stawtin’ to blog.  In da beginnin’ we didn’t hav very many peeps comment.  Lots of ow Facebook furiends followed us as well as furiends fwum dat udder cat site we told you ’bout, but nun of them commented much.  As fur us, member we told you dat mommy not be very smawt when it came to puters?  Well, we followed Timmy’s blog and sum udders, but had no idea how to comment.  MOL  We wuld type a comment and sumtimes weally long ones, and then hit publish and it wuld ask fur ow i.d.. We had no idea what dat wuz.  And then one day it wuz like da light bulb went off.  We literally did a happy kitty dance da day we figgered it out.  We wuz so excited, cuz dat meant we kuld comment on more of da blogs we had begun to follow.  And in turn you all got to know us and know we wuz here.  And lots of you came by and most of you stayed and continue to come by today.  And fur dat…Fank you. We can’t tell you how much it means to us to see yous every day.  Since beginnin’ this cwazy social media ride weez been innewviewed by Pet Radio, da Feline Funny Farmers and Basil da Bionic Cat.  Weez been featured on Rascal and Rocco’s Pet Parade Blog hop.  And mommy did an innewview as well.  We hav joined blog hops and clubs and held events all ow own.  And weez been blest wiff awards and more furiends than we can count.  And we awe so purroud and gwatefull to be a pawt of sumfin’ so wunnewful as da pet blogosphere.  We hav peeps furiends, kitty furiends, doggy furiends, rabbit furiends, piggy furiends and so many more.  And weez just 2 little ole Service kitties fwum da sticks of Oklahoma.  Wow awe we ever BLEST!!!  And now weez be one of Chewy.com‘s newest pet weview bloggers.  And guess what?  Today we hav ow first weal weview fur ya’.    

Boy wuz we surpwised when we wuz given da oppurrtunity to twy those Wellness Divine Duos.  We had been wantin’ to giv those a twy so when they got here, we kuldn’t wait till dinner time.  We had da pleasure of weceivin’  Talapia Pate and Diced Ahi Tuna.  As you know mommy dusn’t giv us much fish so this wuz weally gunna be a tweat.  There awe 5 udder flavors to choose fwum.  Beef pate wiff  chicken liver, Chicken pate wiff diced turkey, Chicken and diced duck, Tuna pate and diced salmon and Chicken pate and diced salmon.  Gotta tell ya’ ifin weez hav da chance we wuld luv to twy them all.  So anyways, dinner finally came and mommy pulled back da foil topper and poured it into ow plates.  It looked delightfully yummy.   And it smelled good too.  Not too fishy, like sum of those cheap canned noms,  Mommy fixed sis Lexi’s plate and then went to bwing me mine.  Back to da dinin’ room to get sum fotos.  And sis Lexi waz so enfwalled by da meal she wuldn’t even look up long nuff fur mommy to ketch a foto.  And then back to me, and me had alweady almost cleaned meez plate.  So we fur sure give these a Divine duo of 8 paws up.
