Blest Sunday: Happy Father’s Day Uncles Pawsum

(Dezi runs and jumps in mommy’s lap, excitedly, she meows at Raena) RaenaBelle, hurry!!! It’s time fur our Blest Sunday posty. and, guess what? 

 

 Raena lays on back of chair

 

          (Raena jumps on the back of mommy’s sitting chair and meows back at Dezi) What is it sissy? What’s got you so excited today?

Today is Father’s day, Raena. 

 

          What’s so excitin’ ‘bout that sissy? We don’t have a father. I’s mean, we have kitty fathers some where, but we never met ‘em. Fanky fankfully we have a pawsum mommy and I’s don’t wanna meet those daddys’ of ours. 

 

 Dezi and Raena in a golden frame for Father's day

 

 

Oh me cats Raena!!! You’re bein’ so literal today. Me wouldn’t wanna meet me’s kitty daddy either, but, cuz mommy is all we have, we celebrate her today too. she has to be both mommy and daddy to us. Ya’ know, we have lots of furiends who only have a mommy or a daddy, and they get celebrated on both their days cuz they’re doin’ twice the job. But, we also celebrate all our amazin’ uncles today. They might not be our daddies, but they luv us, suppurt us and are here fur us when we need ‘em.

 

           Oh MeOW sissy, you mean we can celebrate our uncles today? We have really been blest with the bestest uncles in the universe. I’s know there’s lots of times when they’ve given mommy advice on things, and she really purreciates havin’ their input.

You’ve got that right Raena. We know a couple of our uncles are goin’ thru some trials right now, and we’ve been askin’ God to innervene and send them blessings and healin’.

 

          You mean extra purrayers, don’t ya’ sissy? Cuz ya’ know, we purray fur all our furiends, awnties and uncles every day.

 

Of course Raena, me surely meant extra purrayers. We so wish all our furiends, awnties and uncles never had to be sick or go thru anythin’, but mommy says that’s not the way life works. But, we all know purrayer can change things fur the better. Ya’ know, we never get tired of tellin’ everypawdy how much we luv ‘em and how blest our lives are with them in it. Sometimes mommy ‘members back to the time befur we had our catputer and she can’t ‘magine goin’ back to that life.

 

          Yep sissy, mommy says our lives have been so much fuller since we’ve met all our wonderful furiends. I’s can tell ya’ that this little kitty girly had no idea how blest mine’s life was gonna be the day mommy brought me home.

Me neither Raena, me neither. Fank you all fur bein’ the pawsum furiends, awnties and uncles that you are. As always, we wanna remind you all to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. And we fur sure wanna say a very meowsy big Happy Father’s Day to all our amazin’ uncles. Ya’ll are the bestest!!!

Ready, (Raena crouches on the back of the sitting chair) Set, (Raena leaps from the back of the sitting chair and starts to run. She meows to Dezi over her shoulder) GO!!!

Blest Sunday: Chatty Cats Plan A Party

Welcome to a very special Blest Sunday. What makes it special, you ask?

 

 Dezi watches Raena atop the Liberty cat tree

 

          Yeah sissy, what makes this Blest Sunday so special? 

 

Me’s so glad you asked. It’s special cuz you’re here. All our furiends are here, and that makes everythin’ purrfect.

 

 Dezi looks at Raena at the top of the Liberty cat tree

 

          I’s thought you meant me, sissy?.

 

 Dezi looks up at Raena while Raena looks off in the distance from atop the Liberty cat tree

 

Me does Raena. You’re special too. As most peeps know by now, we only post on Monday, Wednesday, Furiday and of course, on Blest Sunday. And this year, your furst year here with mommy and me, your Gotchaday is on a Fursday. We wanna throw you a pawsum Gotchaday pawrty, Raena; but we don’t normally post on Fursdays. And, this week in purrticular is gonna be a busy one fur mommy. So, since we celebrate Birthday’s and Gotchaday’s all month long, we’ve decided to have your pawrty on Furiday the 9th. And, guess what? 

 

          What sissy? What’s better than a pawrty weekend?

 

 Dezi looks up at Raena atop the Liberty cat tree

 

Everypawdy’s invited!!! All our furiends and awnties and uncles, and yes, Simon. 

 

          Oh sissy, that’s pawsum!!! I’s can’t hardly wait. But sissy, why’s mommy gonna be so busy this week? Is she gonna have time to purrpare fur mine’s pawrty?

 

 Dezi sniffs tree ledge while Raena watches her

 

Well Raena, mommy has her regular monthly doctor’s ‘pointment on Monday, and then a dentist ‘pointment on Fursday. And, it’s time fur us to recertify our lease, so mommy has to get all our papers and stuffs in order so she can turn ‘em in on time. Ya’ know, so we can have a place to live fur another year.

 

          Is that why mommy’s been so stressed lately?  And who’s gonna go with mommy to her ‘pointments? 

 

 Dezi and Raena look at the ceiling from the Liberty cat tree

 

Yes, Raena, lease re-cert always makes mommy stressed. She says they keep wantin’ to invade our purrivacy more and more each year. Mommy says it sometimes makes her feel like a trained seal; jump thru this hoop, and now this one. And, don’t furget to smile and be grateful the whole time; cuz don’ch’a know at the end, you’ll have this meowvelous 400 sq. ft. ‘partment where we’re gonna bug ya’ to death with inspections. As fur those ‘pointments, it’s s’posed to storm all week, so you’ll be the one accompanyin’ mommy. Besides, since mommy’s dental ‘pointment is on your Gotchaday, mommy said ya’ll would be goin’ somewhere special so you can get a supurr special treat. Mommy purromissed to bring somethin’ special home fur me too. 

 

          Really sissy? I’s gonna get a supurr special treat? (Raena gets excited and starts spinning around) Now I’s really can’t wait!!! 

 

 Dezi looks up at Raena and hisses on the liberty cat tree

 

Well Raena, you’re gonna have to wait a few more days. By the way, one of our newer furiends said they didn’t know what a Gotchaday was. We ‘member bein’ new to the innernets once and not knowin’ ‘bout Gotchadays too, so we thought we should ‘splain. A Gotchaday is the day a rescued furry goes to live in their furever home. It can also be called an Adoptaversary, Adoption Day or in some cases, it’s the day your humans have decided to make your Birthday. Offen, peeps don’t know the actual birthday of their beluvved furry, so they will just assign a day to celebrate.

 

          And that’s okay too sissy. Whatever day you celebrate your furry, is the purrfect day.

 

 Dezi looks our window and Raena lays atop the Liberty cat tree

 

Sure ‘nuff Raena. One of the reasons we celebrate all month long is that mommy rarely has money on our special day; so she figgers ifin we celebrate all month, surely at some point in that month she’ll have enuff green papers to buy us a little somethin’ special. Even ifin it’s just a bag of cheap treats or a dollar mousey from the dollar store. So, every day is a special day in our house. 

 

          I’s like that sissy. It also means, lots of extra cuddles and luvvin’ all month long. I’s did hear mommy sayin’ that we were gonna be goin’ to her favorite beauty store, Ulta, this week.

Me heard that too, Raena. Fanks to awnty Ellen who sent mommy a gift card, she can actually buy somethin’ this trip.

          Yep sissy, mommy must’ve cried a million tears when she got that gift card. Knowin’ that awnty Ellen had been dealin’ with Snowball’s illness and then sudden loss, and yet, she was still thinkin’ ‘bout mommy’s special day. 

 

Ya’ know Raena, we luv all our furiends so very much, and purray fur them every day. It broke our hearts when Snowball went to heaven, just like with all our furiends who have joined me’s sis Lexi. We just don’t unnerstand why these things have to happen.

 

 Raena lays on nip mat

 

          I’s fur sure don’t unnerstand it sissy. But maybe it’s cuz God knows there’s another furry out there who needs you more. So, He has to make an openin’ and takes the one who is sufferin’ the most to be with Him. We all know, that once ya’ leave this world, you return to your once purrfect state. There’s no more pain, sickness, or old age. I’s know you and mommy really miss Lexi (God rest her), but ifin she hadn’t gone to heaven, who knows where I’s might have been?. 

 

 Raena with the cheese and mac noodles from MAnonymous

 

Yep, Raena, that’s so true. Anyways, as much as mommy and me miss Lexi, we luv you very much and are really glad you’re pawrt of our furmily now. We should also say a meowsy big fank you to awnty Anonymous fur givin’ mommy some green papers fur her birthday, and sendin’ her some more of that powdered cheese and mac noodles. She even told mommy more of that shelf milk to make it up with was on it’s way.

 

          Oh sissy, we are so blest to have so much.

 

That’s true, Raena. We are blest indeed. We give fanks fur all of our furiends, and ask God to bless ya’ll beyond your dreams. We also wanna remind you to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. 

 

          Let’s link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies and see ifin we can get mommy to give us some of those treats.

 

 Dezi, watches RAena walk off the Liberty cat tree

 

Me’s with ya’ Raena. Me does wanna tell everypawdy that cuz of all the lease stuffs and mommy’s ‘pointments this week, we’re gonna be takin’ most of this week off. We will of course be back to celebrate Raena’s Gotchaday on Furiday, and we hope all of you will join us.

 

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

Blest Sunday: Chatting Cats: In The Dark

Raena, hurry up!!! We gotta write this post while the power’s on.

 

Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

 

          I’s comin’ sissy. I’s had to go to the pawdee box. Mommy wouldn’t have been very happy with me ifin she’d stepped in a piddle puddle; ‘specially ifin the power was off and she couldn’t see it. What’s up with the power anyways? 

 

 Dezi and Raena on Liberty Cat Tree

 

It’s the storms Raena.

 

          Well I’s don’t know ‘bout you sissy, but I’s could do without that all these storms. And I’s fur sure don’t like it when the power goes off. It’s really dark…AND HOT!!! 

 

 Dezi and Raena laying on the Liberty cat tee

 

Well Raena, me could do without the storms too. As fur the heat, it’s summer now. It’s only gonna get hotter.

 

          Hotter than a 110°? I’s don’t know how it could be 110° and stormin’ at the same time. That was just crazy!!!

 

 Dezi lays atop the Liberty Cat Tree

 

Yeah Raena, that baffled me a bit too. At least we were able to give mommy lots of extra cuddles fur her birthday. It may have been hot, and stormin’, and dark; ‘specially without the power. But, we really are blest kitties to have a luvvin’ home and mommy. While it was thunderin’ and lightnin’, and the rain and hail was fallin’, we were cuddled up safe and sound with mommy.

 

 Raena lays on shower bench

 

          You’re right sissy. Mommy said she was so purroud of you fur not spendin’ the day UTB. She was also grateful, cuz she had thought the storms weren’t due till late last night and had already ordered mine’s birthday pizza awnty Anonymous sent me.

 

 Dezi lays atop the Liberty cat tree

 

Uh, yeah. Me ain’t missin’ out on pizza Raena. Was that the furst pizza you’ve ever had?

 

 Raena lays on shower bench

 

           Nope, I’s had some at your birthday last year sissy. I’s luvs pizza. Mommy got her some free breadsticks fur bein’ a part of the Pizza Hut birthday purrogram, so we all had somethin’ yummy to eat in the dark.

 

 

 Raena with the Garfield litter gift

 

 

We sure did. We also wanna fank awnty Vonda and awnty Petal fur sendin’ mommy some green papers fur her birthday. Awnty Vonda told mommy, it was “whatever” money. She doesn’t get that kind of money very offen, so she’s gonna think long and hard ‘bout what to get with it.

 

 

 Raena with 3 bags of Garfield litter

 

          We got a box too Dezi. We don’t know who sent it or why, but we sure were in some serious need of kitty litter. So we really purreciate the 3 bags of Garfield kitty litter we received. Fanky fank ya’, whoever you are.

 

 Raena lays on shower bench and watches mommy pour litter in litter boxes

Don’t furget to put some o’ dat litter in the other box too mommy.

 

We are Raena. We didn’t get to play with the box, cuz mommy tore it apart lookin’ fur anythin’ that said who sent it. We hadn’t mentioned to anypawdy that we were runnin’ really low, so we were all kind’a shocked when mommy opened the box. We have the bestest furiends in the Universe!!!

 

 Raena lays on shower bench and looks into bedroom

 

          We sure do sissy. (Thunder claps outside and the power flashes off and back on again) Fanky fank the cats, the catputer saved our posty. We better wrap this up befur mommy or the weather shuts us down again.

 

 Dezi lays in the house on the Liberty cat tree

 

Yep Raena, me has a date anywhere away from the windows. We really are blest to have so much. We wanna remind you all to take a minute today and everyday to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. We will be skippin’ our regular Service Cat Monday posty tomorrow, as it’s Memorial day, and you all know how patriotic we are, and grateful fur all those who serve and have served our country to ensure our freedoms and safety. But don’t worry, we’ll be back to our regular schedule next week. We’re dealin’ with “Aggression” right now, and you don’t wanna miss it.

          Mommy’s full of great tips and tricks, so we do hope everypawdy is enjoyin’ and/or learnin’ from our posty’s. Let’s link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies and finish eatin’ our brekky while we still have power sissy. We’ll be ‘round to visit, as soon as we can.

Blest Sunday: The Storm Moved Inside the House

MeOW!!! It’s furinally Blest Sunday!!! Kittens!!! Have we had the weather or what? Ya’ know, several peeps have asked us ifin this is “Normal”?

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

          Yep sissy, and several peeps have said we seem to have a lot of storms. Mommy says, ya’ think with all the storms we have you’d have learned not to be ‘fraid by now.

 

 Dezi looks over the edge of the cat tree

 

Me told you, me’s not ‘fraid Raena, me’s bein’ safe and doin’ what the weather guessers say to do durin’ the storms. You know, we had car, home, peeps and animal damagin’ hail, winds and tornadoes the other day.

 

hail on the sidewalk
It was really dark outside, so we tried to lighten the foto as much as we could. Most of the pieces are broken, but you get the idea.

 

          Yeah sissy, I’s never seen anythin’ like it befur. And where was mommy?

 

 

Oh Raena, me can’t believe she was out there tryin’ to take fotos of the hail. The weather guessers said it was the size of golf balls, and mommy was out there tryin’ to figger out how to get a foto without getting’ hit.

 

 Piece of hail beside a quarter

 

          Yep sissy, and it was really dark out too. Every time the hail would hit the ground it would shatter. Mommy furinally got the broom out and tried draggin’ a piece to her. By the time she got it up to the door, it had melted down to the size of a quarter.

 

Maybe Raena, but it was still dangerous. The truth is, this is storm season fur us, so this weather is purretty much “normal”. Altho’ the last couple of years the storm season does seem to last a bit longer. Mommy says, it may only seem like it, cuz we’re now on the cat puter. Or we would be ifin it wasn’t stormin’. We got our furst real break in the storm yesfurday, and was tryin’ to visit our furiends a bit, and then mommy had a really bad fall. The storms may have broken outside, but inside, it was ragin’ on.

  

 Raena eating the grass from Valentine

 

 

          She sure did sissy. And all the way down, she was hollerin’ fur us to leave the fone alone. She must’ve hid the one by her sittin’ chair, cuz I’s couldn’t find it at all. Fankfully, she didn’t need an ambulance.

 

Dezi sits atop the Liberty cat tree

Me’s sure glad ‘bout that Raena. Me was worried. It took furever fur her to get up. She had a big gash on the top of her foot and her knees look pawful. Mommy says old peeps break easier than young’un’s and so she called Uncle Pete, Timmy Tomcat’s daddy, fur a little medical reassurance.

          I’s really glad we have such pawsum furiends sissy, so mommy had someone she could ask fur advice. Ya’ know, Uncle Pete’s a nurse in real life, so mommy was able to confurm that she hadn’t broken anythin’ and didn’t require a dreaded trip to the emergency room. Ya’ know, mommy hates hospitals.

 

Me knows Raena. That’s why me can’t figger out why mommy thinks she needs to take us to the VET. We hate the VET as much as she hates hospitals. MOL  Me thinks there must be some kind’a double standard goin’ on here.

 

          What do ya’ mean sissy? What’s a double standard?

 

Dezi eats Wysong Uretic
Yummm mmmm mmmm Don’t bother me right now, meez eatin’.

 

Well Raena, it means that mommy can eat junk but we have to eat good fur us food. And, mommy can avoid the hospital, but we have to go to the VET.

 

 Dezi watching Raena while they eat

 

          I’s like our food sissy. And mommy says Primal just came out with some new proteins that we’re gonna luvs. She even added ’em to our amazon wish list

 

Me likes our foods too Raena, but me also likes pizza. Anyways, speakin’ of food, we need to go finish eatin’ our brekky.

 

 Raena sleeps on cat mat

Mommy says I’s da cutest thing ever. Look’it mine’s angelic face. 

 

          Let’s link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies furst sissy. And say fanky fank ya’ to Uncle Pete fur helpin’ mommy.

 

 Thank You emoji

 

Fanks Raena. And yes, fank you Uncle Pete. We are so very blest to have amazin’ furiends, our home that shelters us from the pawful storms, and our luvvin’ mommy, that’s gonna be okay. We wanna remind all our furiends to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the many blessings in your lives. We really wish we had been at BlogPaws this past week with those furiends who went, but maybe next year. Mommy’s gonna be sittin’ with her legs up and ice on fur the swellin’, so we purrobably won’t get to do a lot of visitin’ today either. Ifin ya’ can spare any purrayers, we sure would purreciate ‘em. And ‘member to join us tomorrow fur Service Cat Monday. The topic of aggression continues.

And one last thing. Ya’ know that “hooligan in a can” me won? Well you can get your very own. Cat Scouts is a pawsum place fur cats and their peeps to mingle with others of like mind. And it’s totally furee. Den Master created this pawsum place fur us to get together to have fun, help others and learn lots of things. We know it takes money to keep things goin’, but Den Master has never mentioned chargin’ any of us scouts a dime. ‘Stead, she’s created a store where peeps can buy Cat Scout memorabilia and the furtastic “hooligan in a can”  and help suppurt this amazin’ place we call Cat Scouts. Me’s a little ashamed me didn’t see the card included in me’s purrize till yesfurday. Ya’ know, we was just so taken by all the goodies included in da can. But me saw it and so me wanted to tell you all where to get your very own tin of cat goodness. Just click here to get it now while it’s on sale.
