Published on by Service Cats U.S.56 Comments

Meowllo evewypawdy and a happy and Blest Sunday to you all. Yep dat’s wight. It’s time fur ow weekly blest Sunday posty. And OMC Hav fings been on a woller coaster fur us this week. As you know it stawted out wiff Sissy goin’ to da office of torture on Monday and they made us wait all week fur da wesults. Mommy be tweatin’ sissy’s infection wiff sumfin’ naturwal till da Vet calls us back and purrscwibes sumfin’ else. A culture wuz posed to be dun on hers uwine but wiff all da incompetence weez sperienced fwum dat udder Vets office weez guessin’ they didn’t do it. So it’s pawsible dat we may hav to hav Lexi go in fur anudder uwinalysis. Mommy sure hopes not. And it’’s not just cuz of da gween papers, it’s cuz  sissy’s been poked enuff fur a bit mommy sez. So even tho’ this whole sperience wiff this udder Vet wuz pawful, weez coountin’ it as a blessin’ cuz we wuz able to finally get sissy’s wesults. And they be much better than we kuld have hoped fur.

Sis Lexi can purretty much eat whatever hers wants cuz hers nummews awe so good. Dat means dat maybe we can put sum weight back on her. So mommy’s actually lookin’ fur sum fattenin’ foods wight now.

And we awe blest to have so many pawsum furiends and fwamily dat be purrayin’ fur sissy and mommy and me. Mommy sez dat’s why she finks sis Lexi be duin’ so good.

Meowllo everypawdy.  We sure hope yous enjoyed ow snow story yesfurday.  Weez haven’t weally had da chance to read yous comments.  See when weez got up yesfurday there wuz a notice on da fwunt door fwum da manager.  She wuz sayin’ dat da snoopervisor wuz gunna be here on da 23rd fur inspections.  Mommy got upset. Firstly ow lease sez dat management may enter ow pawtments once a mumff fur inspections and dat it may coincide wiff extermination, filter checks, etc. and only after weceivin’ a 48 hour notice.  And ifin yous wecall, weez alweady had an inspection this mumff.  And secondly, hoo duz inspections 2 days afur Christmas?  These peeps dat’s hoo.  They’ve gotta be da mostest misewable peeps in da world to wanna diswupt peeps so offen.  So mommy be purretty aggwavated dat as usual management wants to bweak da rules.  And just in case mommy decides to let her in she wuz busy twyin’ to get more stuffs put away.  Member dat closet me told yous ‘bout?  MOL   

Mommy sez this be fur everypawdy dat doubts we like to play in da water. She wuz twyin' to get weady fur a shower when sis Lexi decided to jump in and get a dwink. MOL

On a much happier note, guess what else happened yesfurday?  Da mail lady (weez hav a lady) came a knockin’ on ow door.  Actually, she didn’t knock, mommy saw hers comin’ up da walk and met her at da door.  And she had a box in hers hands dat she handed to mommy.  Mommy bwought it in and looked at it.  Of course me had to examine it wight away too.  And good fing, cuz it wuz fur me.  Mommy looked a bit worried and sed, “hmmm I don’t remember ordering anything honey, what do you suppose this is?”  Me wuz like, me don’t know mommy just open it!!!  So mommy got out da scissors and cut da tape and………OMC  there wuz purrezziez in dat there box.  They sed they wuz fwum meez Angel Cat, can yous believ it?  Me has a Angel Cat.  Me wuz checkin’ it all out and looked at mommy and hers had water dwops runnin’ down hers face.  And she wuz smilin’ at me diggin’ wound in da box.  Me gave mommy a nose bump and a kissy and then she stawted to pull da wrapped purrezzies out and there wuz this big ole bag unner them.  Me stuck meez head in (to check it out of course) and there wuz stuffs fur mommy too.  Me jumped up in hers lap and all dat water comin’ fwum hers eyes stawted fallin’ all over me.  Mommy wuz huggin’ me so tight and tellin’ me how much she luvved me and how special me wuz to hav such pawsum furiends.  Me finks wiff furiends like weez hav hoo needs santa?.

Well da pawtment inspection went okay.  So faw so good, we made it fwu da day wiff out gettin’ a write up so chances awe no wight ups this mumff.  Course da mumff is yung.  MOL  Anyways, Fanks fur all yous good wishes and purrayers fur us and da inspection. 

We also got a letter in da mail sayin’ sumfin’ ‘bout ow caw bein’ wecalled.  Ow caw isn’t new, but it’s fairly new to us. Weez only had it 2 years now.  Anyways, we wuz posed to call them to schedule a pointment to get da purrawlem fixed .  So mommy called over and found out dat da wecall hers letter wuz ‘bout wusn’t da only wecall on ow caw.  There wuz a wecall back 10 years ago dat never got fixed.  OMC Not good.  So da wepair shop sed they wuld order da pawts and giv us a call to schedule a time fur us to bwing da caw in to get fixed.  So yesfurday hims called and sed they had boff da pawts and wanted to schedule us in on Furiday. So looks like weez gunna be going to hav those fings fixed dat make ow caw dangerous.  Me can’t wait to go to town again.  They sed it wuld purrawlly take ’bout an hour, and then there’s da dwivin’ time to get there and back  and run sum errands.   

 Dezi CoTW 10th Dec 2014

Now there wuz a bit of confusion ‘bout shoppin’ wiff a cop, so we fawt we wuld kinda splain it all to you.  Me finks most of you hav heard of da angel twees.  Dat’s da twee fur da kids hoo be less fortunate So dat they too kuld hav Christmas purresents.  Well a kupple years ago da communities decided to take it to da nex level and took up donations of gween papers stead of toys, clothes, etc..  And  then they wuld giv this munny to those kids and send them on a shoppin’ twip wiff a police officer so dat they kuld buy da fings they wanted. Da kids get $100.00 each to shop, and a cop.  Da police man takes them to whatever store they wanna go to and spend an hour (on average) pushin’ da cawts wound and weadin’ da stwuctions and stuffs dat da kids can’t do.  Meez gotta tell ya’ we wonder ‘bout how these kids actually qualify fur this purrogwam cuz they be walkin’ wound da store wiff there iFones and pickin’ out da mostest spensiv toys da store has.  Me gotta tell ya’ weez not qualify but weez fur sure awen’t nearly as gweedy as those kids.  We heard sevewal of them tellin’ their cop dat they didn’t wanna spend any of their munny on furmily members.  It’s purretty skeery when yous fink ‘bout it,  cuz they awe gunna grow up and become selfish gweedy adults sumday.  Anyways dat be “shoppin’ wiff a cop.”

 Dezi & Lexi

And me also wanted to tell yous all dat on of ow sweet furiends Basil has decided to hav a Cat of da week where hims duz an innewview and makes sum weally cool fotos, and hims chose us to be da very first.  Yous kuld be da nex Cat/Dog/Rabbit/ Pig/whatever of da week, all yous gotta do is let hims know yous innewwested.  Can yous believ it.  Meez is so very excited.
