Chatting Cats: Mommy Is Feeling Proud

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Sissy, Aren’t you thru checkin’ unner the bed yet? I’s purretty sure nuffin’ got in the house since the last time you checked!!! Mommy says the silly weather guessers have issued warnings fur every town and county ‘round us, but left us out. 

 

 Dezi lays in cat bed looking up

 

 

 

          (Dezi meows loudly from UTB) Ifin we’re not s’posed to be havin’ all these storms then what’s that loud noise that keeps bangin’ the roof?!! 

 

 Raena lays on tissue paper

 

 

 

Mommy says it’s those ice balls called hail. I’s haven’t figgered out the difference t’ween hail and sleet. Seems they’re both ice that rains down from the sky and makes a lot of noise. Anyways, mommy says she was really purroud of you last night fur stayin’ out and eatin’ your dinner even tho’ it was stormin’ outside. So I’s was thinkin’… 

 

          What did me tell ya’ ‘bout thinkin’, Raena? 

 

Raena lays on tissue paper

 

 

 

Sissy…I’s only tryin’ to help. Anyways, I’s was thinkin’, ifin you could come out last night and eat your dinner, then you oughtta be able to come out today and eat your brekky and hang out with mommy and me.

 

 Dezi licks paw while laying on tissue paper

 

 

 

          (Dezi slinks down the hall to the living room focusing on the door) Hmmmm, Why didn’t you tell me brekky was ready?

 

 Raena lays on tissue paper

 

 

 

I’s thought you heard mommy hollerin’ fur ya’ fur the last 10 minutes and then sing our brekky song.

 

 Dezi bathes while laying on tissue paper in front of the fireplace

 

 

 

          (A loud clap of thunder is heard overhead. Dezi, flattens and looks around. Seeing Raena still eating and mommy A sitting calmly in her chair, Dezi decides to continue to eat. Mommy beams with pride at Dezi’s actions) Me sure hopes that these storms go away and soon, Raena. Guess we oughtta be really glad we got in those strolls last week. Doesn’t look like there’s gonna be any strollin’ this week. 

 

 Raena lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

May be sissy, but I’s gonna look on the pawsitive side and believe these nasty storms will pass by us today. You know, mommy says havin’ a pawsitive attitude is half the battle. Y, Look’it you, I’s believed with mommy that you could hang out with us in the livin’ room even tho’ it was stormin’ outside. And there you are, purrettyin’ up in front of the fireplace. Can’t you see how purroud mommy is of you? 

 

 Dezi bathes while laying on the tissue paper in front of the fireplace

 

 

 

          Yeah, well, ya’ll shouldn’t get any big ideas, me might need to check fur intruders again soon. We better wrap this up befur the catputer blinks. We couldn’t get in any visits with our furiends fur the last few days cuz the catputer keeps shuttin’ down.

 

Dezi and Raena lay atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

 

I’s know sissy. But I’s think mommy’s the reason the catputer’s been shuttin’ down. You know she doesn’ like us to be on it when it’s stormin’ outside. She says she can’t affurd to replace it ifin it gets hit by lightnin’ or somethin’. We’ll just have to hope our furiends unnerstand and know that we’ll visit as soon as we can. In the meantime, let’s go play. 

 

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

Blest Sunday: Strollin’ And The Mystery Blogger Award

          I’s comin’ sissy. What’s with the stormin’ meows? I’s don’t want anymore storms. I’s thought spring was s’posed to be here?.

 

Yeah, well, spring or not, you know it storms here a lot. 

 

 Dezi lays in wheelchair watching Raena inside the stroller

 

 

 

          That I’s do, sissy. That’s kind’a why I’s don’t get why you wanna run hide when you hear the furst rumble in the sky? You’d think you’d be used to it by now. After all, it’s not like you were born yesfurday. 

 Dezi's profile looking out into the street from the stroller while outside

 

 

 

Uh? Me thinks you’re callin’ me old Raena. And ifin you are, that’s not very nice. Besides, how many times does me have to tell ya’, me’s not hidin’. Me’s makin’ sure you and mommy are safe from any critters that might try to get in the house and hide unner the bed. Anyways, me was really happy to see mr. Sunshine come out this week. It warmed up enuff fur mommy to take us fur a few strolls.

 

Raena sits in stroller while outside

 

 

 

          What fun we had, right sissy? I’s luvs to go strollin’ with mommy. I’s even met a couple of the neighbor ladies. They wanted to make over me and pet me and talk ‘bout how soft mine’s fur is. I’s wasn’t real fond of all those hands comin’ at me all at once, but I’s sucked it up and let ‘em manhandle me. I’s sure mine’s beauty made their day.

Hmmmmpht  Conceded much Raena?

 

Raena looks out of stroller

 

 

 

          I’s don’t even know what that means, sissy. Anyways, I’s heard all kinds of noises and even saw a herd of deer out in our woods. Did you see ‘em when you went out?

 

 Dezi looks out of stroller at the bobcat in the woods

Look’it mommy, it’s the bobcat!!!

 

 

Nope Raena, me didn’t see any deer, but me did see that old bobcat we used to feed. Least me thinks it was her. She was watchin’ mommy and me from the woods. She had a purretty good hidin’ spot, we almost missed her. Unfurtunately, mommy scared her when she went fumblin’ fur the camera. Then when she tried to take a foto of that old bobcat runnin’ away, the camera slipped and all mommy got was a foto of the sun settin’. It’s actually a really nice foto, just not what mommy was tryin’ fur. 

 

 Sun Set from the stroller

 

 

 

          Yeah sissy, mommy’s not the greatest fotographer in the world. Least she tries. I’s guess that’s what counts. And, mommy said it was good to see the bobcat. Maybe we’ll see more of her this year. I’s not got to meet her yet.

 

Dezi rests her head over the edge of the stroller while outside

 

 

 

And ifin mommy has anythin’ to say ‘bout it Raena, you won’t ever get to meet her. Mommy says she’s not like us. Even tho’ she looks furiendly, she’s a wild cat and not meant to play with us.

 

 

 

          Really sissy? You call me wild all the time, what’s the difference?

 

 Dezi looks full on at the camera while sitting ion the stroller outside

 

 

 

Your wild is kitten energy Raena. Her wild means she’s not used to hangin’ with peeps and she actually kills most everythin’ she eats. X’cept those times when everypawdy ‘round here puts out food fur her. She’s kind’a like our lion and tiger cousins you watch on the teevee; pretty to look at, but not suited fur home livin’. We’re so Blest to be homey kitties and have such a pawsum home with mommy.

 

          We are at that. It’s just too bad sissy, I’s sure wanted to meet her.

 

 Dezi looks out of the side of the stroller while outside

 

 

 

Well, maybe you’ll see her one day while you’re out strollin’ with mommy. You can wave to her, just ‘member to keep your distance. In other words, stay in the stroller where you’re safe.

          I’s do feel safe in our new stroller sissy. I’s luvs the tethers. They’re strong enuff to make sure we can’t escape or get hurt, but still long enuff to let us move all ‘round and take in the view. I’s just wish the wind hadn’t been blowin’ so hard when I’s was out.

 

 Dezi looks out the side of the stroller while outside

 

 

 

Me too, Raena. All that wind was blowin’ our winter furs all over the place. Still, it was really nice to get out and take in some furesh air. The neighbor even came out to see me. Mommy wouldn’t let me get out and walk ‘round tho’. She said the exterminator had just sprayed the yard and she didn’t want me gettin’ poison on me’s paws. It’s the furst time he’s sprayed the outside in five years. We hope that helps cut down on all the scary bugs that try to get in the house like the scorpions, spiders and fire ants. 

 

          Fleas and ticks too sissy. We fur sure don’t want any of those. 

 

Sure ‘nuff Raena. Altho’ me’s purretty sure mommy will take care of that fur us. Anyways, we are so Blest that we got to go out fur those amazin’ strolls this past week. Me can’t wait fur more.

 

 Raena looks out the stroller while outside

 

 

 

          Me either sissy, me either. Meowin of Blessings, we wanna fanky fank uncle Pete, Timmy and the furmily fur the green papers fur somethin’ special. Mommy didn’t say what she was gonna get us yet, but she purromissed to get us somethin’ we’d really like. And fanky fanks to awnty Lene fur the green papers fur me to get a bacon burger the next time we go to Ardmore. That stinkin’ dentist office has upset mommy so much at her last few visits that we didn’t even get to stop fur a special treat. Now mommy has no x’cuse, awnty Lene said so. 

 

You better get enuff  to bring home some fur me too Raena.

 

          I’s will sissy, don’t worry.

Chatting Cats: Technology And Secrets

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Ya’ know, I’s a young kitteh so all this tech stuffs has been ‘round mine’s whole life. Catputers, cell fones, tablets and such are normal sights fur me. But mommy talks ‘bout a time when she didn’t have any of these things. I’s can’t ‘magine what life would’a been like without at least a catputer. But sure ‘nuff, mommy says there was a day when nopawdy had these necessities.

 

 Dezi lays in wheelchair watching Raena in the new stroller

 

 

 

          Raena, what are you meowin’ ‘bout now? 

 

Fones and stuffs, sissy. You know that married at furst sight show we were gonna sign mommy up fur gave all those couples a challenge the other day to let their new spouses look thru their fones and all their messages and stuffs. Seems several of the men didn’t want their wives goin’ thru their fones. They claimed it was an invasion of purrivacy. And mommy said those girls oughtta run fur the hills. Mommy said that she ‘members when nopawdy had their own purrsonal fone to carry ‘round with ‘em, and any call or letter came to one address/home. Husbands and wives shared a fone, and didn’t make calls or send messages in secret, lessen they were doin’ somethin’ they ought not be doin’. So, it got me to thinkin’… 

 

 Raena stands on the Liberty Cat tree while Dezi looks back at her from the ledge

 

 

 

          Oh MeOW  You were thinkin’? 

 

Sissy, that’s not nice. You better take that back or I’s gonna tell mommy. You won’t get any treats lessen you be nice. You know the rules, treats are fur good kitties. 

 

          Fine Raena, me’s sorry. What were you thinkin’? 

 

 Raena lays in new powrchair

 

 

 

Fanky fank ya’ sissy. I’s was actually wonderin’ ifin any of our furiends felt the same way as mommy? We don’t have a daddy, but I’s sure ifin we did, mommy would wanna know who he might be callin’ or sendin’ messages too; ‘specially ifin he had his own purrsonal fone. And why is it okay to keep secrets t’ween married peeps? We don’t have any secrets here. Mommy tells us everythin’ and we meow to her everythin’ too.

 

          Well Raena, me doesn’t think secrets are okay in any relationship. Then again, maybe that’s why we don’t have a daddy?. One of those men from the show told his new wife that the minute she went thru his fone, they were done. You heard mommy tell her to run. After all, what could be so “purrsonal” or “purrivate” that his wife couldn’t see it? 

 

 Dezi lays in wheelchair watching Raena inside the stroller

 

 

 

Yep sissy, when he said that, I’s fur sure wanted to know what was in there.

 

          Me too Raena. Mommy says, ifin ya’ wanna make a girly suspicious, that’s the way to do it alright. Maybe it’s a good thing we didn’t get mommy signed up fur that show. Any man who comes into our lives aren’t gonna be able to have any secrets.

 

Raena bathes while laying on the floor

 

 

 

That’s fur sure sissy, we meow ‘bout everythin’.

 

          Yep Raena, that we do. As fur that trust stuffs, it has to be earned. Even then, it should be okay fur husbands and wives to share everythin’, includin’ fones. 

    

 Dezi and Raena touch noses while laying on the heated cat mat

Psssst Raena, can you keep a secret?

 

 

 

I’s agree sissy. So, what ‘bout ya’ll? We wanna know what all of you think ‘bout this topic and keepin’ secrets t’ween married peeps.

 

          And kids too, Raena. Do ya’ll think it’s an invasion of purrivacy fur your spouse to go thru your fone or fur pawrents to go thru their kids fones? Inquirin’ minds wanna know. MOL

 

Raena sits pretty on scratcher

 

 

 

Oh sissy, you’re too funny. Well, guess we oughtta wrap it up. All this meowin’ ‘bout trust and secrets has mine’s head spinnin’. Let’s go play.

Blest Sunday: Slip Sliding Away

MeOW  Leave me alone Raena. Me doesn’t feel good.

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

 

 

          I’s just wanna help sissy. Do ya’ want me to write our Blest Sunday posty? 

 

No Raena, Blest Sunday is me’s day. Me doubts you really wanna help. Me thinks you’re just nosy and wanna be in the middle of everythin’, all the time. Ifin you’re not the center of attention, you get all jealous. 

 

 Raena sits on cat mat while Dezi sits in front licking lips

 

 

 

          That’s not true sissy. I’s luvs you. I’s just don’t unnerstand why you got so mad when mommy saw you peein’ on the floor and raced ya’ to the pawtty box room to the litter box. Why would ya’ wanna pee in the floor anyways? 

 

It’s not like me really wants too Raena, but that nasty old pawtty box made me’s wee hurt. 

 

 Raena lays on cat mat while watching Dezi play with Yeowww nip nanner

 

 

 

          Mommy says the pawtty box didn’t do it, sissy. She says it’s cuz you’re not drinkin’ enuff water. That’s why our meals have had extra au jus (juice/gravy) lately.

 

Me still thinks it’s the pawtty box’s fault Raena.

 

          Well sissy, least mommy had some medicine left over from your sis Lexi. She said it was gonna make you feel all better. Well that and purrayers. What did the medicine taste like? Mommy wouldn’t give me any.

 

Trust me Raena, you don’t want any. It tastes yucky.

 

          Really? Ifin it tasted so yucky why didn’t you fight with mommy ‘bout it? 

 

Raena lays on cat mat while Dezi plays with nip nanner

 

 

 

Hmmmpht Haven’t you figgered out by now that mommy always wins? It’s just easier to take the medicine the furst time than to have mommy hold ya’ down and force it down your throat.

 

 

          Yeah, I’s guess that’s true, sissy. At least we can have fun slidin’ ‘round on all the piddle pads mommy put down.

 

Me doesn’t think mommy’s too impurressed with your slidin’ games Raena. She nearly tripped over the bunched up pads in the pawtty box doorway last night.

 

          Purrlease sissy, mommy luvs watchin’ us playin’ and havin’ fun. 

 

 Dezi digs in toy box

 

 

 

Normally she does Raena, but me’s not so sure ‘bout all your slidin’. Me’s purretty sure “RaenaBelle, stop that” doesn’t mean she’s happy with what you’re doin’.

 

          ‘Course it does, sissy. Mommy says that all the time. Wait, where are ya’ goin’? 

 

Dezi beside the toy box

 

 

 

Me has to go pawtty. And me’s sure mommy would get mad ifin me went on the carpet.

 

          Ya’ better use the pawtty box sissy. I’s will ask all our furiends ifin they could spare a purrayer fur ya’. We are so Blest to have so many peeps that luvs us. Unfurnately, it’s stormin’ and cold here again, but I’s sure mommy will take you fur a stroll in our new stroller the next time mr. Sunshine comes back. That’ll fur sure make ya’ feel better. Right sissy? Sissy? Uh Oh, I’s see mommy comin’ down the hall with that syringe full of medicine.

 

 Dezi looks out front of the new stroller while outside

 

 

 

Ain’t no point in runnin’ and tryin’ to hide Raena. Mommy knows all the hidin’ spots. Me fur sure ‘purreciates any purrayers me can get. Sick or not, stormy or not, we are so very Blest to have so much luv. And even tho’ me knows mommy doesn’t like it when me doesn’t use the pawtty box like me should, mommy still luvs me. We’re so Blest to have had some medicine in the house and a mommy who knows what to do. And, we’re so Blest to have our new stroller. We are indeed very Blest kitties. We’d like to remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give Thanks fur the Blessings in your life. As long as you have luv in your life, you are Blest.

          That’s so true, sissy. We’re also linkin’ up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies.
