Warm And Toasty Christmas Favorites
(Dezi sits and watches the lights blink on and off on the Christmas tree and turns to mommy and meows) Mommy, how many days are left befur Christmas?
6 Days, baby, 6 days.
Me can’t wait. Me just luvs Christmas. And me luvs lookin’ at all da Christmas cards we’ve been getting.
Me too sweety.
I’s luvs Christmas too, mommy.
I’m glad you like Christmas Raena. What’s been your favorite thing so far?
Da lights. I’s really like nommin’ da lights.
You’re not s‘posed to nom da lights Raena, you’re only s‘posed to look at ‘em. Dat doesn’t even count as a Christmas activity. (Dezi acts perturbed.)
Mommy says I’s can pick anythin’ I’s want sissy. (Raena sits back and thinks a bit) I’s know!!! We won a Christmas Stockin’ from our furiends Zorro and Pixie from da Swiss Cats, and you said it could be allllll mines. I’s luvs it. And it’s soooooo cool; mines stocking came all da way from Switzerland.
Do you even know where Switzerland is Raena?
(Raena shuffles her paws) Well, no, sissy. But I’s do know it’s really far away. Awnty Claire sent it speedy ship or else it never woulda got here befur Christmas. Oh, and you know what else I’s luvs sissy? We got a new ‘lectric blanky. And mommy said we didn’t have to wait fur Christmas to start usin’ it. Fank da cats, cuz it’s been really cold ‘round here. Y, Just this meownin’ it was 7 degrees F. But we were toasty warm all cuddled up together under da new ‘lectric blanky.
Yep Raena, we sure are blest. We furgot to ask ‘bout usin’ names, so we’ll just say a meowsy big Fank you to our ‘lectric blanky Angel. (Dezi purrs loudly and then peers at Raena) Don’t you have somethin’ you wanna say Raena?
(Raena thinks a minute) Ummmm, well…Oh yeah, I’s do sissy. Fanky Fank ya’ dear Angel furiend. We luvs our new ‘lectric blanky. Mommy was so excited she furgot to take fotos. Now da camera batteries are dead and we gotta wait fur ’em to charge so we can take fotos. But you can trust me when I’s tell ya’, we are luvvin’ da snuggly warmth it emanates. Ya’ know sissy, we have da bestest furiends in da universe.
Yes Raena, we do. You know, mommy talked ‘bout how we made all these furiends yesfurday when she wrote da posty. We better wrap it up fur now. Mommy wants another cup of coffee and we need to finish eatin’ brekky. And there’s some gifts under da tree dat need investigatin’ befur Christmas. We hope ya’ll are stayin’ warm. Me also wants to fank all of you who are takin’ care of ferals in your area. Just a few more dreams and Christmas day will be here.
Are you ready fur Christmas?
Do you use electric blankets?
Do you have (put up) a Christmas stocking (for your furries)?
Till da next time…………………………………………Be Blest!!!

R-E-S-P-E-C-T
Hey, is anypawdy there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Can you believe it, twice in one week.
Yeah Raena, don’t get too excited. Pushin’ me outta da way and runnin’ to da catputer to get there furst doesn’t mean you get to write da posty.
What do ya’ mean push you aside sissy? I’s didn’t push you anywhere, I’s just run faster than you.
Dat’s debatable Raena. But our furiends didn’t come by to hear us arguing.
Sure they did sissy. Don’t you ‘member mommy readin’ da comments to us, ‘bout how much our furiends enjoy our witty banter and me stickin’ mines tongue out at ya’?
Here’s another look at dat foto.
Witty Banter? Nopawdy said “witty banter” Raena. And do you even know what dat means? As fur da foto of you stickin’ your tongue out at me, me thinks they were all talkin’ ‘bout da whacky paw you were ‘bout to get form me.
Don’t be silly sissy. We Ragdolls don’t whacky paw. I’s knew you weren’t gonna whap me.
Well you better start thinkin’ me might whap ya’ Raena, cuz here lately you’ve really been askin’ fur it. And mommy’s given me da okay to do it too.
Noooooo, she was just jokin’ sissy. Mommy wouldn’t let you hurt me. And besides, I’s know you luvs me.
Me does luv you Raena, and any whacky paw me would give ya’ would be done outta luv. (Dezi snickers, she knows humans love to say things like that) You need to learn some manners Raena. Ya’ know, respect fur your elders and all?
I’s do respect mines elders sissy. I’s didn’t bite or scratch anypawdy at da senior citizens home.
Dat’s great Raena, but it’s not just them you need to respect. Anypawdy dat’s older than you is your elder. And cuz they’re older and have more knowledge and experience than you, you should show them some respect. Seein’ as how me’s older than you, and has lived here fur 7 years longer than you, means you should show me some respect. You can start by not botherin’ me when me’s in da pawdee box.
I’s can’t bother you when you’re in da pawdee box anymore sissy. Uncle Pete, Timmy and da furmily just sent us a new pawdee box…with a lid.
They sure did Raena, and me luvs it. It’s big and roomy and bestest yet, you can’t stick your grubby little paws over da side. Fank ya’ll sooooooooooooo much. Now, you just need to keep away from da door while me’s usin’ it.
Come on furiends, just lookit dat fluffy tail. Don’t you wanna grab it?
I’s will try sissy, I’s will try. It’s just dat you back up to da door and let your floofy fluffy tail wave at me. It’s so temptin’ to just reach out and grab it. You know, it looks so much like dat feather toy mommy let’s us play with.
Well no matter how temptin’ it may be, you just need to control yourself. As fur da feather toys, me will chat with mommy and no more feathers fur you.
No More Feathers!!!? Dat’s not fair.
Fair or not Raena, dat’s just da way it’s gonna be. Now, let’s join up with Rascal and Rocco and their pawsum cohosts fur da weekly Pet Parade blog hop and take a mid meownin’ nap. We finished our Christmas card furinally and will be sendin’ it out this weekend. But ifin you’d like to take it now, here it is. We hope and purray everypawdy has a very Merry and Blest Christmas.
Till da next time……………………………………….Be Blest!!!

Winter Is Here
Hey is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Let me tell ya’ it has turned cooooooold here in da last few days. Cats and kittens, mouses and rats!!! I’s don’t like this thing called Winter. It can just pack up and go away fur all I’s care. We went to mommys doctors ‘pointment yesfurday, and everytime we got outta da car it was shiver me timbers time. Some of you are new here and aren’t furmiliar with our doctor day routine, so let me ‘splain. We go to da doctor furst and then we have to head to da next town over to go to da farmacy. And when we got there yesfurday mommy threw a fit. Okay, Not really a fit, but she was sad dat she had furgotten da camera. See, da town had decorated da street with these gigantic waving santas. Mommy said she would have luvved to get mines foto with da santas and da one reindeer in front of da bank.
Anyways, we turned in mommys purrscription and then huddled up and strolled down da street to da bank. What a bummer trip dat was. None of da regular peeps were there, so I’s didn’t get any treats. Can you believe it? None of them had one treat fur a purretty little Southern Belle kitty girl. We got all froze over fur nuffin’. So we bundled back up and headed back down da street to da farmacy. They had mommys’ medicine and mines treat ready, so we could get goin’. They cooed and talked ‘bout how much I’s grown since they saw me last month, and sent us on our way. By then it was getting’ colder and darker. Da sun hadn’t shown at all yesfurday and so it got dark really early.
Anyways, ya’ know dat ‘lectric blanky I’s just learned ‘bout? Well it seems to have a short and isn’t workin’. Dat’s not a good thing, cuz sis Dezi says it’s gonna get colder befur it gets warm again. So, we stopped at da Dollar store to see ifin they had ‘lectric blankys and how much they might cost. They didn’t have any ‘lectric blankys at all. Nope, not one. Not even one in puke pink (which we hate, by da way). So we bundled up again and headed home. We got home just befur it got all dark outside. Sissy was happy to see us, but glad she had gotten to stay home where it was warm. ‘Specially after I’s told her ‘bout da treat situation. Mommy and me got all warmed up and then she fixed dinner fur me and sis Dezi and sat down to check emails.
It’s pawssible today’s also Blooper Furiday. Mommy says she doesn’t
‘member me lookin’ this way when she pushed da button. MOL
So there we were, all feelin’ toasty and warm when there came a loud knock at da door. We weren’t ‘spectin’ anything or anypawdy, so mommy flipped on da porch light and opened da door slowly. There stood a handsum young man at our door. Mommy always says God’s gonna have to send her a husband to knock on da door, or she’ll miss him. But this wasn’t God answerin’ dat purrayer. Da nice young man introduced himself and said he was a veteran on a mission. Well, let me tell ya’, ifin there’s one thing I’s learned since bein’ alive, is dat even with all da purroblems, we live in da greatest country on da planet. And one of da reasons our country be so great is all those service men, women and anipals who answered da call to purrtect and serve our country and keep all of us safe and secure da freedoms granted us by God and our fur fathers in da Constitution.
With tears in her eyes, mommy looked at da nice young man and said, “Thank you for your service.” And do you know what he told mommy? Well, besides your welcome.? He told mommy dat he’d been out since early yesfurday meownin’ and she was da furst purrson to say dat to him. Da tears really began to fall now and mommy ‘pawlogized to him fur all da disrespect he had encountered. He was tryin’ to raise money and get sponsors to donate so he could send care boxes to those soldiers who are still serving away from home. He gave mommy da stats on how many service men/women commit suicide cuz of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). And mommy continued to cry. Of course we had no money to give him, but we wished him well and will continue to purray fur him and all those serving our great country. We don’t know what has happened to this country we luvs so much dat in a whole day, mommy would be da only one to thank a service man fur his service. Soldiers don’t choose which orders they follow or what wars/battles they fight. Even ifin you don’t agree with a war or battle, You should still be grateful to those who fought it. After all, you didn’t have to and you slept soundly because they did.
Well said sis Raena, well said.
Let’s wrap it up fur today. We’re behind on our visitin’ and we’ve got some fotos mommy needs to get loaded on da catputer, cuz we all received some blessings this week dat we’ll be tellin’ everypawdy ‘bout on Sunday. And we’ve got those letters to Santa to write too.
Oh sissy, I’s can’t wait. We’re gonna join up with Rascal and Rocco and their amazin’ co-hosts fur da weekly Pet Parade. And we’ve got a new neighbor we’ll be meowin’ ‘bout soon.
Till da next time………………………………………Be Blest!!!
