Chatting Cats: Freeze Dried Mixers #ChewyInfluencer

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBele. I’s so worried ‘bout our furiends in the paths of these storms. I’s not a scaredy cat, but I’s don’t really care fur all the storms we have. They upset mine’s sissy, and that’s enuff to make me not like ‘em. But, mommy says our thunderstorms are nuffin’ compared to these hurricanes.

          Raena, how many times does me have to tell you, the storms don’t scare me? But me too is worried ‘bout all our furiends. Me’s thinkin’ these hurricanes just might scare us all. Me knows we’ve been purrayin’ hard fur everypawdy. Mommy says that Irma got a tad weaker, but she’s still goin’ strong and headed straight fur Florida and some our furiends. And, those in Texas are still realin’ from the hurricane that hit them. Me just wishes our world could stop with all the hate over pawlitical agenda’s and just ban together.

Me too sissy. Hey, do you think mommy might oughtta order some more noms fur us, just in case the folks at Chewy have to evacuate? Ya’ know, they’re offices are located in Florida too.

          Yep Raena, me was just thinkin’ that too. Ya’ know, Chewy’s been doin’ their pawrt to help out the victim’s of these storms too. And, meowin’ of Chewy, we got some great mixers to review this month. As most peeps know, we eat a freeze dried raw diet and luv it. Mommy says it’s the bestest thing she’s done fur us in a long time. We’re happier and healthier than ever. But, she also says it’s kind’a ‘spensive, so anytime we get the oppurrtunity to try a freeze dried raw purroduct, we jump at it.

 

 

 

This is a sponsored post. We received the Instinct Rawboost Mixers in exchange fur our honest review. As always, we tell it like we see it. Neither Chewy or Instinct is responsible for the opinions expressed in this post unless otherwise stated. We only bring products we use or have tried and feel would be of interest to you, our readers and furiends.

Instinct Rawboost Mixers

 

 

I’s luvs the raw food we eat sissy, and I’s luvs tryin’ out new flavors and brands of freeze dried raw. Knowin’ how much we like rabbit, mommy couldn’t wait to order the Instinct Rawboost Mixers fur us. They come in 6 ounce bags of chicken or rabbit and cost $11.99 and $13.99.

          The ingredients look purretty good Raena. There’s none of those questionable ingredients our humans like to avoid. Now, the instructions suggest adding these mixers to the top of kitty’s food to entice them to eat more. However, since they’re not a balanced food item, mommy likes to put them on the bottom of our plate so they’re the last thing we eat. You know, kinda like you humans have a dessert after a meal, we get a tasty little treat at the end of our meal. We’ve had these befur, but Instinct has made some changes to the packagin’ and the size of the nibblets. Mommy used to have to cut/break them in half to make a bite sized piece, but, they’re now small enuff to add to our food without any cuttin’ or breakin’. They are kind’a dense and hard and don’t soak up water quite as fast as our regular noms, so mommy suggests usin’ warm water and waitin’ a few extra minutes befur servin’. Fur those reasons and the tastyness of them, me gives them 3 paws up.

Great points sissy. I’s think the Instinct Rawboost Rabbit Mixers are purretty tasty too. And I’s agree they’re a nice bite size right outta the bag now. I’s give ‘em 3 paws up too. Mommy says she’s happy with the ingredients and that we both seem to like them. Mommy says they’re not cheap, but nuffin’ freeze dried is. Mommy said she wishes they were ingredient balanced so they could be served as a complete meal, but, they do make a nice occasional addition to our regular noms. So, mommy gives ‘em a thumb up too.

As fur Chewy, we give them an all paws up as usual. Great purroducts at great purrices and speedy free shippin’ always make us happy. You can also set up an auto ship so you never run out of your pet’s favorites. Don’t worry, you can always skip, cancel or delay at anytime. You can also make changes by addin’ or removin’ items up till the day befur your auto ship order ships. And, Chewy customer service is great. And, like we said earlier, they’re doin’ their pawrt to help all those affected by these horrible storms. So, head on over and check ‘em out. You know you wanna try these mixers too.

Chatting Cats: Breakfast Is Comin’

(While leading the way down the hall to the kitchen, Dezi hears the familiar buzz of the lawn crew. She stops dead in her tracks and looks back at mommy crawling along behind her and then back towards the front door.)  It’s okay sweety, keep goin’ it’s just the lawn crew. Let’s get to the kitchen and get ya’ll some breakfast. 

 

Dezi licks lip as she looks around the corner from the dining room

 

          (Getting agitated at the hold up and wanting to look out the door, Raena walks passed mommy and nudges Dezi. Dezi and Raena touch noses and Raena stands on her back legs and puts a paw out to Dezi.) C’mon sissy, I’s hungry and I’s wanna see what they’re doin’.

 

     (Dezi hisses and begins to slowly walk towards the kitchen again. Raena steps back beside mommy and nudges mommy a few times) Me better get some extra luvvin’ today. That’s all me’s sayin’. 

 

 Dezi lays in the wheelchair while Raena meows t her from the top of the stroller.

 

 

(Once they all get to the kitchen and mommy starts making the girls breakfast, she starts to sing one of her made up songs to the tune of Christmas time is comin’) Breakfast time is comin’, breakfast time is comin’, breakfast time is comin’ and it won’t be very long… Dezi and Raena eatin’, Dezi and Raena eatin’, Dezi and Raena eatin’, their breakfast till it’s gone… Lovin’ Dezi and Raena, I’m lovin’ Dezi and Raena, I’m lovin’ my Dezi and Raena, Dezi and RaenaBelle… Don’t worry ‘bout the lawn crew, don’t worry ‘bout the lawn crew, don’t worry ‘bout the lawn crew, cuz soon they will be gone. 

 

     (Dezi sits uneasily while watching and listening to mommy repeat the snappy little tune over and over again. Raena walks over and they touch noses again, just as the lawn crew comes up on the porch with the loud leaf blower) Hisssssssss

 

(Dezi runs down the hall and then back to the kitchen where she rubs against mommy’s legs)  It’s okay Dezi. C’mon, breakfast is ready. (Mommy puts the girls breakfast plates down, sits in the sitting chair and starts drinking her coffee. Dezi starts eating while Raena goes to the door to look out at the lawn crew and have a little bath)

 

Dezi eating

 

     Raena, you better come eat your breakfast or mommy’s gonna be mad. 

 

 Raena bathes while sitting on the perch in front of door

 

 

          I’s wanna watch all the commotion. Besides, mommy doesn’t get mad at us, no matter what we do. 

 

     Maybe not mad, but she does get upset when she has to tell us to eat a billion times each meal.

 

          Why do ya’ reckon she does that sissy. I’s might wanna graze a bit and take mine’s time. She says eatin’ slow is good fur your digestion.

 

     Yeah Raena, but slow doesn’t mean 3 hours. Anyways, while you were watchin’ the chatter box last night, did you hear ‘bout the new hurricane swirlin’ ‘round out there?

 

 Raena sits on cat tree looking up at Dezi

 

 

          I’s sure did sissy. And, I’s even sat in mommy’s lap while we looked online at all the displaced anipals. It’s so sad that so many anipals have been separated from their families and lost their homes. I’s can’t even ‘magine how they must feel. I’s get scared when mommy goes to the trash without me. 

 

     Yeah Raena, me might enjoy havin’ a little alone time when you and mommy go out, but me’s always glad when ya’ll get back home. Me’s so worried ‘bout our furiends in the path of these horrible storms. We’re fur sure purrayin’ hard that they’re all safe and stay together.

 

 Raena lays on cat tree

 

 

          We sure are sissy. And, did you know there are sites where peeps can go to help out with donations and other things? We read where a lot of peeps from far away are volunteerin’ to foster, or come down to help with the clean up and so much more. It’s times like these that make me so purroud of the human race. With all that’s goin’ on and all the dissension in the world, it’s nice to know, we can all come together in a crisis. There are so many places that we can’t list them all. But you can check those listings here, ifin you’d like to help.

 

 Dezi walks toward the food bowl while looking back at Raena not in foto

 

 

     Fanks fur tellin’ everypawdy where they can go to help Raena. And fur those that can’t help physically, you can always purray. Purrayer does change things and helps a lot. And, ‘member to make sure your pets are microchipped and/or have some form of identification on them at all times. You never wanna find yourself in a situation where you’re separated with no hope of ever being reunited. Well, we better go finish brekky now that the lawn crew’s gone.  

 

Do you have a plan in the event you get separated from your furry family members?

Are your pets microchipped?

Chatting Cats: Hunting With The Cousins

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s gotta tell ya’, that chatter box mommy calls a teevee, sure has some great shows. I’s seen kin folk of all kinds this past week. I’s saw a leopard, a cheetah and of course, mine’s favorite, the lions. 

 

 Dezi lays atop the cat tree

 

 

          Raena, you know those cats aren’t really our cousins, don’t you? 

 

 Raena watches tv.

Hey, wait up, I’s wanna play too.

 

 

What do ya’ mean sissy? Mommy says they are our cousins, and I’s sure she knows more than you ‘bout those kinds of things. Besides, I’s unnerstand everythin’ they’re sayin’. Ya’ know, they meow just like us. Don’t you ‘member how worried that leopard was when we were sick? She was chuffin’ to beat the band. 

 

 Raena watches leopard on tv

What’s that ya’ say Ms. Leopard? Y, Fanky fank ya’. We’re feelin’

much better now.

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me members all that chuffin’, but me’s bettin’ she wasn’t chuffin’ fur us. 

 

 Raena watches cape buffalo on tv while laying in the chair

Yep, looks purretty tasty to me.

 

 

You can think what you want sissy, but I’s sure she was chuffin’ fur us. And then, I’s even joined the hunt. Did you see me? We hunted a giraffe, a buffalo and even a deer of some kind. 

 

 Raena watches lions on tv while laying in the chair

So, what’s our plan? How are we gonna take down that big old buffalo?

 

 

          Sure you did Raena. And what was mommy hollerin’ the whole time? 

 

 Raena watches tv

I’s got this!!! I’s’ll come in the front here.

 

 

Was mommy hollerin’ sissy? I’s didn’t hear anythin’; I’s was so involved in the hunt. Ya’ know you’ve gotta focus or you’ll slip up. I’s sure didn’t wanna be the reason we messed up and didn’t ketch our prey.

 

 Raena wstches lions on tv

Great job we did there Mrs. Lioness. Where can I’s get a bite from?

 

 

          Oh Raena… (Dezi rolls her eyes and shakes her head

 

 Raena watches the lions eat their kill

Hey, where’s I’s s’posed to fit in?

 

 

But, you know what sissy? They wouldn’t share the kill with me. After all the help I’s gave ‘em, they wouldn’t let me have any of that giraffe or the deer thingy. I’s just know I’s would’a liked ‘em. You know how much we like the odd purroteins. Chickens schmickens, give me giraffe any old day. 

 

 Raena gets close to the TV

Yeah, that monkey don’t look so scary to me.

 

 

          What would you know ‘bout girafe RaenaBelle? We’ve never had anythin’ like that. Granted, me agrees, we might really like giraffe ifin mommy was to serve it up on our plates. Me will leave the huntin’ and killin’ to our lion and tiger cousins. Ya’ know Raena, now that we’re feelin’ better and it’s startin’ to cool off outside, maybe we can meow mommy into takin’ us fur a stroll and getting’ you away from the chatter box. Maybe some day you’ll learn ya’ can’t actually eat anythin’ ya’ see there. 

 

 Dezi sits in front of tv with giraffe horn on her head

Wha’d’ya’ think I’s look like with giraffe horns?

 

 

Like you know ya’ can’t actually eat the pizza you keep pawin’ at? I’s wonder ifin any of our furiends enjoy the chatter box? I’s know a lot of them like to watch bird tv from their windows. But, they fur sure ain’t seein’ all the action we do. Anyways, goin’ fur a stroll sounds like fun sissy. Altho’ watchin’ the chatter box is great fun too. Let’s go see what mommy’s doin’ and get her in the shower so we can go out. I’s’ll race ya’.

Blest Sunday: Purrayer Changes Things

Raena, STOP!!! Don’t Touch Me!!! Me doesn’t feel good. 

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

          So, I’s don’t feel so good mine’s self.

  

 Dezi watches Raena atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

Then stop it and let’s just lay down and have some quiet time.

 

          But sissy, mommy says ifin ya’ don’t feel good, you should keep doin’ your normal stuffs and it’ll help make ya’ feel better. And ‘sides, mommy’s been layin’ hands on us and purrayin’ over us a lot. 

 

Yep Raena, we’re blest to have a mommy who luvs us so much. Bet me’s tummy and hiney-bo still hurts. 

 

          Why do ya’ reckon we’re sick sissy? 

 

 Dezi sniffs the Yeowww nip toys

 

 

How should me know Raena. Does me look like the all seein’ eye or somethin’? 

 

          What’s an all seein’ eye sissy?

 

 

It’s just a…Oh, never mind. Mommy’s looked all over the house and checked everythin’ we could have pawssibly eaten over the last week, or gotten into, and can’t find anythin’ that should have caused us both to get the runny runs. Least not this bad. Me’s so tired of havin’ me’s bloomers cleaned. Me could go the rest of me’s life and never miss that. 

 

 Raena lays on chair back

 

 

          You sure do sound mean when mommy’s helpin’ ya’ get that stinky runny stuffs off your furs sissy. I’s never heard such growlin’ and hissin’ in all mine’s life. I’s don’t think you’ve ever hissed at me quite that bad. 

 

Well, it hurts. Me’s hiney-bo is so sore that even the Charmin feels like sandpaper. Me just hopes all this stops soon or mommy’ll be packin’ us off to the VET. 

 

 Raena lays on the floor and looks at the camera

 

 

          The VET!!! No Way!!! I’s never wanna go back there again!!! Ya’ know what sissy? I’s bet ifin we were to ask all our amazin’ furiends to join mommy in purrayin’ fur us, we’d be feelin’ better in no time. 

 

Me bets you’re right Raena. We have the mostest pawsumest furiends in the universe. They luv and care ‘bout us enuff that me’s sure they’d purray fur us. Mommy says fankfully, we’re still eatin’ and drinkin’ normally, and while we might not be up to zoomin’ thru the house, we’re still actin’ a bit playful. She’s not seen any parasites on us or in our litterbox depawsits, so she can only deduce that somethin’ has really upset our tummy tum tums. ‘Specially since both of us are havin’ the same issues. 

 

 Raena lays in mommy's lap for some lap loving time

 

 

          That’s true sissy. But, I’s just know we’re gonna feel better soon. When we woke up today mr. sunshine was smilin’ down on us and the weather’s startin’ to cool off a bit. With our furiends joinin’ mommy in purrayer, we can only get better.

 

 Dezi lays in chair and looks pretty

 

 

Me believes ya’ Raena. Each day is a blessing even when we’re a little under the weather. We’re so blest to have a luvvin’ mommy, great furiends, an amazin’ furever home and yummy noms. We wanna remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. Even when you feel like you’re livin’ under a rain cloud in the dark, you are blest. 

 

 

 Dezi rolls around on the Yeowww nip heart

 

 

          So true sissy. Every breath we take is a blessing. Now, let’s try to pose fur selfie or two so we can link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. And, maybe you’ll feel up to playin’ fur a bit? Wha’d’ya’ say sissy, wanna go play with our Yeaowww nip toys?

  

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