          I’s comin’, sissy. I’s been so worried ‘bout mommy. Let me get a good stretch here on this new Catit scratcher we got last month from Chewy. I’s wanna give mommy a nice relaxin’ massage. Maybe it’ll help.

Me’s sure mommy will ‘purreciate that Raena. She knows how much we’ve both been worried ‘bout her. Seems things went from bad to worse last week at mommy’s dental ‘pointment and she’s been cryin’ ever since. Me’s furs haven’t gotten this soaked in a while.

          Yep sissy, I’s couldn’t believe that after everythin’ she’s been thru and everythin’ they’ve put her thru, they had the nerve to tell her she still owed money. And not just a few dollars either, but a whoppin’ $800.00. I’s should’a known somethin’ was up when I’s didn’t recognize anypawdy when we went back in February. I’s mean, we knew they went thru dentists like a hot knife thru butter; but the office staff had always remained constant. Well, till this year that is. And now they’re sayin’ that mommy paid fur a temporary lower denture but the purr-manent one was never included in the plan. Somethin’ ‘bout only billin’ fur services they’re purrvidin’ at the time. Mommy tried showin’ ‘em her paperwork that showed the purrmanent lower denture, and the paper that said she had a zero balance. But they said they don’t use those forms anymore and even tho it was listed, it was never included in the purrice. And, since the lady that told mommy it was, is no longer with the company, they can only go on what their new paperwork says. And, it says mommy owes them fur the purrmanent bottom denture. But hey, it’s cheaper than the partial she was gonna get. She kept callin’ mommy “my love”, as ifin that was gonna make it all better. Hisssssssss

Yeah Raena, me doesn’t know how they kept a straight face. Or how many more peeps have they done this too?. Ya’ know, they’ve got ya’. Ya’ can’t argue with peeps who don’t have a clue, and they know you’re gonna pay cuz ifin ya’ don’t, ya’ don’t get your teethies. (Dezi and Raena both shake their heads) It’s just so upsettin’. Mommy’s so tired of fightin’ and bein’ alone in all this. She just wants to give up on everythin’. Like, where’s she s’posed to get $800.00? Even ifin she gave ‘em her whole check it wouldn’t be enuff. ‘Course, mommy would never do that, cuz that would mean we wouldn’t get any noms fur the month and would purrobably be evicted fur not payin’ the rent. Me gets why mommy’s so upset, me just doesn’t get how these peeps can do this.

          Well, I’s don’t like it sissy. I’s want mine’s happy mommy back. Ifin she’d just have let me at ‘em, I’s would’a gave that my luvs babblin’ lady the o’l whacky paw of correction and a bitey she’d never furget. Anyways, even in what seems like one of mommy’s darkest hours, she continued to say we are Blest. She held each of us and told us how much she luvs us and how Blest she is to have us. And, I’s did see a smile last night when you took your big o’l paw and wiped away her tears and stretched your head out fur a kiss. She says it’s so cute how you poke your mouth out and close your eyes like you’re actually kissin’ her.

 

That’s cuz me really is kissin’ her, silly. Me luvs mommy so much. Sometimes our duties are to just make mommy feel better.

          I’s luvs luvvin’ on mommy, sissy.

 

 

 

Me too, Raena. No matter what else may be goin’ on, luv can conquer all. We are so blest to have a luvvin’ mommy, a furever home, food in our tummies and the bestest furiends in the universe. What a meowvelous life we have. We’d like to remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the Blessings in your life. Fank you all fur bein’ our furiends. And, ifin ya’ can spare a purrayer or two, we’d really ‘purreciate it.

          One last thing sissy…let’s link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. We’ve had lots of time to spend in mommy’s lap lately, so we’ve got purrlenty of lap selfies/plandids. 

  

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

Chatting Cats: Today Is The Day

Hey…HEY IS ANYPAWDY OUT THERE??? It’s Me RaenaBelle!!! (Raena looks around for Dezi and then towards the window as a flash of lightning brightens up the room.) Sissy!!! I’s not sure ifin anypawdy can hear me over all these thunder boomers and storms. Sissy? Sissy, where are you? 

 

 Raena chats from the boxbed with mouth open

 

 

 

          Leave me alone Raena. Me’s checkin’ unner the bed fur intruders. Don’t you have somethin’ you’re s’posed to be gettin’ ready fur? 

 

 Raena bathes while laying on the floor

 

 

 

I’s do sissy. The day’s furinally here. we’re goin’ to town to get mommy’s purrmanent dentures. Somepawdy asked on facebook what we meant, so I’s purrobably oughtta x’plain a bit. By purrmanent, we mean the final denture plate that’ll take the place of these temps she’s been wearin’ fur 6 months. There’s no screws in mommy’s mouth and she’ll still take her teethies out to brush ‘em and all. So technically, they’re not purrmanent. ‘Course nuffin’ with a 6 month warranty is purrmanent, right? But, they’ll be purrmanent fur mommy cuz there’s no way we’d be able to affurd another pair, so they’re just gonna have to last.

 

          (Meowing from UTB) Mommy’ll take good care of ‘em Raena. Don’t you worry ‘bout that. Are you ready fur your ‘pointment?

 

Raena wipes her eyes

 

 

 

Mine’s ‘pointment? (Raena wipes at her eyes) I’s don’t have any ‘pointments. I’s just goin’ with mommy cuz she might need me. 

 

          Oh, yeah. Mmmhuh, sure. Nope, no ‘pointments fur RaenaBelle. 

 

What ‘pointment did you think I’s had sissy?

 

 Dezi lays in cat bed and looks back over her shoulders

 

 

 

          (Mumbling under her breath from under the bed) Nuffin’ Raena. Me was just thinkin’ out loud is all. Ya’ know, ‘bout your eyes. Me knows mommy had wanted to have those looked at, she just needed to pay our balance at the V E T’s down a little so she could affurd to have you checked out.

 

Well, I’s don’t wanna go to the V E T’s office. I’s gonna hope we’re at mommy’s dental place all day so there’s no time to go to the V E T. Besides, don’t you think mommy’s gonna wanna hurry home knowin’ how scared you’ll be here by yourself with all these storms?

 

          How many times does me have to tell ya’ Raena, me’s not scared. Me’s checkin’ fur intruders!!! Anyways, we’ll just ask all our furiends to keep all of us in their purrayers today. Ya’ know, that mommy gets purropurr fittin’ and aesthetically purrleasin’ teethies. And, that ya’ll will be safe out in the storms, ‘specially since mommy didn’t get any sleep last night; and that me will be safe here waitin’ on ya’ll to come home. And, that whatever’s wrong with your eyes will be easily fixed and not cost a lot. It’s gonna kill mommy to not clean your eyes all day. Ya’ know, CK once said your eyes looked pawsum, she didn’t know what we were meowin’ ‘bout. We had to tell her that mommy purrobably cleans those things elebenty billion times a day, and edits out the bad like a blemish. 

 

 Raena bathes while laying on the floor with her tongue out

Hmmmmpht I’s know. Mommy’s constantly wipin’ mine’s eyes. Altho’, it does help me see better when she does. I’s fanky fankful mommy cares enuff to take care of me like that. I’s not sure she’s gonna be noticin’ mine’s eyes much today tho’. She didn’t get much sleep the night befur either cuz of all the storms. So, two days without sleep at her age…we’ll be lucky ifin she doesn’t doze off while waitin’ on her teethies. She says they want her there early in case it takes a few tries to get her teethies right. I’s can’t wait fur when we take fotos and show off her new smile. Altho’ it purrobably won’t be tomorrow. I’s see a long nap and lots of cuddles in our near future. 

 

          (Dezi meows quietly from under the bed while a loud clap of thunder booms over head) Me sure hopes the storm passes soon so me can join the cuddles on the bed ‘stead of unner it.

 

 Raena lays on floor with tongue touching nose

 

 

 

(Raena jumps on the cat tree and waits for mommy to put her harness on and strap her into the stroller. She meowmbles) Guess we won’t be visitin’ our furiends again today. Hmmmmpht We’s better start visitin’ soon or they’ll furget all ‘bout us. 

 

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

Blest Sunday: Lap Loving Is The Best

RaenaBelle, hurry up, it’s time to write our Blest Sunday posty.

 

Raena sits on small perch and looks out the door

 

 

 

          I’s comin’ sissy. I’s thought I’s heard somethin’ outside.

 

Me’s sure you did Raena. The wind’s been blowin’ like crazy fur days now. It’s turned nasty and cold again; and Mr. sunshine ‘pawrently got lost somewhere, cuz he ain’t been ‘round since Fursday. It’s been a rough week all ‘round, what with the car actin’ up and lockin’ you and mommy inside. And, all the hurlin’ and horkin’ you and me did and that fall mommy took. Have you seen mommy’s blue eye?

 

          Blue? I’s thought mommy had hazel eyes that turned from brown to green?

 

 Dezi gets loving while laying on mommy's lap

 

 

 

She does Raena. Me was meowin’ ‘bout that shiner the desk left behind when she smacked into it the other night. Me sure hopes that counselor lady doesn’t think somepawdy’s been beatin’ up on mommy.

 

          Why would she think that? We’re the only ones here with her. Besides, mommy wouldn’t stand fur anypawdy abusin’ her.

 

 Dezi gets loving while laying in mommy's lap

 

 

 

‘Course not Raena, but sometimes when peeps show up with “so called” unexplained bruises, it’s cuz they’re in bad relationships. While that ain’t what’s happenin’ here, we wanna remind anypawdy who might be readin’ this, Abuse of any kind is Never okay. Speak up and get away from anypawdy who wants to hurt you. Me didn’t actually mean to go in that direction here, but it just felt like me needed to meow it. Anyways, all the yucky aside, blessings are in abundance here. 

 

          Sure ‘nuff, sissy. Furst up, all our furiends joined together to purray fur us so we’d get better. And, we did. We’ve both kept down several meals now and haven’t had a tummy rumble in days. Mommy’s migraine is easin’ up. ‘Pawrently it got really bad there fur a while. Mommy never hurls and yet, she did a couple times with this one. But, she says she’s feelin’ better now, and no more hurlin’ fur her either.

 

Animated thank you rose

And, fanks to awnty Cindy and awnty Lene fur the green papers, we’re gettin’ the car checked next week. The battery cables had been really loose and we’re purretty sure that’s all that was wrong with the car. We’ll know fur sure next week after we see the mechanic.

 

          We are so very blest, aren’t we sissy? I’s luvs our furiends/awnties and uncles sooooooo much. 

 

Me too, Raena. Meowin’ of furiends, one of our long time dear furiends, Kit, from Brian and Simon’s house had to go to heaven yesfurday. She was the purretiest little girly. She had a purretty rough start in life, but, fanks to Brian’s family, she had an amazin’ middle and end of life. She was well luvved by lots of anipals and peeps. 

 

 Raena curled up and laying in mommy's lap

 

 

 

          I’s just don’t unnerstand why our furiends have to leave us sissy. It just doesn’t seem fair.

 

Life isn’t fair Raena, that’s why it’s so ‘purrtant to live each day to the fullest. And to tell those around you how much they mean to you every chance you get. That’s one of the reasons mommy tells us she luvs us off and on all day every day. She doesn’t wanna have any regrets.

 

Raena lays sleeping on the back of the chair

 

 

 

          And, that’s why we meow our luvs to our furiends all the time. There’s purrlenty of bads and sads in this world and we just want to remind everypawdy how special they are and how much we luvs ‘em.

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

 

 

That’s right Raena. We also wanna remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give Thanks fur the blessings in your life. Blessings are every where, we just have to stop long enuff to see ‘em.

 

 Raena lays all curled up in mommy's lap

I’s too comfy to move right now. Zzzzzzzzzz

 

 

 

          So true sissy. We’re also linkin’ up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. We’ve had lots of luvvin’ selfies this week. We always luvs layin’ in mommy’s lap, but when it’s cold like it has been, there ain’t no better place to be.

 

Meowin’ of, it’s me’s turn fur some lap luvvin’. So, just get your comfy self off mommy’s lap and go lay somewhere else.

 

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

Chatting Cats: Don’t Stress MeOwt

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s can’t believe it’s only Wednesday. Seems like it should be the weekend already. (Raena rubs paw over her eye and then suddenly hurls breakfast all over the floor. She then looks at mommy with bewilderment and runs to the bathroom.) Yep, it’s been that kind’a week already. 

 

 Dezi and Raena in hall way

 

 

 

          (Dezi runs to the bathroom and sits outside the door looking at Raena) RaenaBelle, Ya’ need to calm down. Girl, ifin you’re gonna get upset everytime mommy gets emotional or stressed, you’re never gonna keep your noms down.

 

Dezi and Raena meet in the hall way

 

 

 

(Raena walks to Dezi and puts her head down and bumps under Dezi’s chin. They both walk down the hall to mommy, who’s cleaning up the projectile vomit and then on to the living room.) I’s can’t help it sissy. I’s luvs mommy soooooooooo much.

 

          Me does too, Raena. But, it makes mommy sad when we hurl our meals. She wants us to be able to eat and get strong and stay strong. 

 

 Dezi and Raena together

 

 

 

I’s know, sissy. I’s just don’t unnerstand how everypawdy could tell mommy no, they didn’t wanna help her cuz it was too cold. Like we don’t know it’s cold? ‘Course it’s cold out, but surely it wouldn’t take that long to try to jump start our car?. It’s not like we wanted the battery to die. Mommy was a little worried when we got in the car Monday after goin’ to the farmacy and the clock had reset to 12; but, she didn’t really think much ‘bout it till we got home and the car just died. I’s mean, Dead. Not a peep from it. It took like a hunnerd hours fur her to get the doors unlocked so we could get out. 

 

 Dezi lays on scratcher

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me doesn’t unnerstand peeps sometimes either. But, those are mommy worries. It’s up to us to purrvide her with luvvin’ purrs and let her do all the worryin’. She tried to start the car yesfurday and a light on the dashboard flashed on fur a second, so she’s purretty sure the alternator is tryin’ to send power to the battery, it’s just not gettin’ enuff charge to make it work. The mechanic said somethin’ ‘bout maybe the battery doesn’t have enuff amps or somethin’ cuz of the cold. ‘Course then he said he couldn’t really say fur sure without actually seein’ the car. Doesn’t he think we’d take the car to get it checked ifin it would start? Anyways, mommy has a few more calls to make today. Ifin none of those pan out, she said she would just have to call a tow truck out. So see? Mommy’s tryin’ to handle it. Me knows she’d be a lot less stressed ifin you didn’t keep hurlin’ everywhere. 

 

Well, I’s’ll try sissy. Fanky fankfully, mommy’s got that new coat from Pipo to keep her warm while she’s outside. It’s so cold, I’s don’t even wanna go fur a stroll.

 

          At least we didn’t get that snow the weather guessers were talkin’ ‘bout. Now, c’mon, let’s go give mommy some purrs so she can get busy tryin’ to get the car fixed.

 

 Raena lays on the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

I’s right behind ya’ sissy. Looks like we won’t get to visit our furiends again today. We sure would ‘purreciate any purrayers ya’ll can spare. Car batteries ain’t cheap, but they’re lots cheaper than alternators, so we’re purrayin’ a new battery will get us all fixed up.

 

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