Well here we are on another luvvly blest Sunday. You know it’s felt more like winter time this past week than spring; but dat’s made fur a lot of good snuggle days with mommy. Me did kinda fureak out a bit durin’ da storms, but mostly me just hung out with mommy. Me luvs her so much.
When me last left ya’ me was headin’ off to cat scouts fur our 4th Quest and we was havin’ some really severe storms at home. Our innernet modem kept flashin’ and knockin’ us off da catputer. Mommy shut it down and sed it was too dangerous to try to be online. Me was finally able to purrticipate in some of da quest tho’ so me didn’t let me’s patrol down too much. We’ll be hikin’ out today and wrappin’ up yet another quest. We have a new feature called chat dat allows us to do just dat in real time. Of course you all know da quests and events are virtual, but da furiendships are real as real can be.
Me borrowed this from Timmy Tomcat.
Anyways, dat’s enuff of a plug fur scouts. We’s still lookin’ fur me’s new sisfur and helper. Me sure hopes she gets here soon. Me can’t wait to share Dougie da Betta, and da duties with her. MOL Mommy sez me will have to share da cat trees and toys with her too. Hmmmmmm Me hadn’t thought ‘bout dat. Ya’ know what tho’? Me is so blest to have such a wunnerful luvvin’ mommy and so many pawsum uncles and awnties and furiends dat me will be happy to share it all with her.
We’s wrappin’ up Buddy’s 30 day nom challenge this week and we’ll be tellin’ ya’ more ‘bout dat Wednesday. And guess what? Mr. W actually asked mommy to check on da cost of da noms cuz he likes how Buddy’s been doin’ on them. You’ll have to wait and see ifin he decided to order them. Paws crossed he does, right?
Me told you dat sis Lexi was back home but we hadn’t posted any fotos. Da urn wasn’t zactly what mommy had ‘spected and she just kuldn’t quite bring herself to take fotos. But last week me’s sweet furiend Cat and awnty Lisa sent us da mostest bootyful restin’ place ever. Sis Lexi had what mommy called her signature pose, and this urn looks just like dat. Yeah you know mommy had to have a big ole cry. But we are so grateful to have it. Mommy’s gunna keep her on hers desk so Lexi can always be close. Check it out below.
Isn’t this just beautiful?
Well dat ‘bout wraps it up. As always we are blest. Take a minute everyday and give thanks fur da blessings in your life. As long as you are breathin’, you are blest! Mommy and me luv you all very much and send purrayers everyday thankin’ God fur each of you and askin’ Him to bless you and your families. And we wanna say thank you fur bein’ our furiends and family. Me almost furgot. Me’s joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur da Sunday Selfies.
Well it’s finally Furiday mommy. Do you think these storms are gonna last all weekend?
I don’t know baby, but you have a quest to attend at cat scouts.
Me sure does mommy. Me hopes it isn’t too hard. We’s sure learnin’ lots of new things at scouts lately.
Ya’ll sure are Dezi. You should be well prepared for hiking and camping.
Well me sure hopes so. Me wouldn’t wanna let me’s patrol down. So with dat sed, me has to run now and meet up with me’s patrol to hike into da campsite and get all set up. It’s gonna be a crazy busy weekend, specially with da storms. Me’s joinin’ up with Rascal and Rocco fur da weekly Pet Parade Blog Hop. And ifin you’re lookin’ fur lots of virtual adventure and fun with other cats why not join Cat Scouts today? Me hopes yous havin’ great spring weather and lots of sun puddles wherever you are. Me will see you all soon.
Mommy, me thought spring was here. Why is it so cold and stormin’ out?
Spring is here Dezi. But April in Oklahoma is windy, chilly and stormy. And we may still get a freeze before it’s all over.
A FUREEZE? But mommy, me wants da sun to come out so we can go fur a stroll.
Let’s g fur a stroll mommy.
I know baby. Trust me, we’ll take plenty of strolls when the weather warms up.
Me’s gonna wait right here.
Okay mommy, thank you. Ya’ know a while back a couple of me’s new furiends asked why you needed Service kitties. Me told them we would write a posty ‘bout it and then lots of things happened dat we needed to write ‘bout and so we never got ‘round to ‘splainin’ anythin’ to them.
I know baby, maybe we can give them a little over view today.
Dat would be pawsum mommy. And then when me’s new sisfur and helper gets here they can read all ‘bout us trainin’ her. Me can’t wait to meet her.
Me either sweety. I sure hope she finds us soon.
Anyways, a long time ago now, you had car accident dat left you disabled, right?
That’s right.
You had lots of nerve and muscle damage; and cuz of it lots of times you don’t have any feelin’ in your extremities. And you have a blood clot on your brain dat makes you have migraines all da time.
Well sort of honey. The blood clot is just one of the reasons I have migraines.
Well, okay. Anyways, you have lots of pain and have to take medicines to control it. And when we go to sleep at night those medicines wear off and you get all stiff and stuck in pawsition; so you can’t move in da meownings. So dat’s why you need massages to get your body and muscles warmed up and movin’. And cuz you need to visit da pawdee box room when you wake up, you need me to drive your wheelchair so you can pull yourself onto da, well, you know. And ya’ never know when da pain or da pinched nerves or whatever is gonna cause you to pass out and go fallin’ to da ground. Me knows tho’ and you need me to tell ya’ so you don’t have to fall all da way to da floor.
I sure do baby. I really appreciate you letting me know. That floor sure is hard and an awful long way down. And for a migraine. there’s nothing in the world better than a purring kitty giving a massage. It’s so relaxing and helps so much.
Oh mommy me luvs givin’ you a massage. Me sometimes gets so happy me drools a little. But on with me’s duties. You also pass out in da shower a lot. Somethin’ to do with those nerve things, right? Anyways, a peep can drown in as little as 2 inches of water. So it’s really purrtant to keep your head outta da flow of da shower. And you’re not very graceful mommy. Lots of times you lose your balance and fall. Ifin you was to ever be hurt really bad and couldn’t get to da fone, you would need somepawdy to call da ambulance to help you. Even with a helper me can’t stop da bleedin’ or patch ya’ up.
Well baby you summed it up pretty good. Now why don’t we end with something positive today.
Say hey to Dougie me’s fishy
Dat’s a great idea mommy. Me knows everypawdy wants to know what me decided to call me’s fishy. There was a lot of great names suggested by ya’ll. And fur da record me had already tried to name him brekky, lunch or dinner, and mommy sed no. She sed dat was worse than callin’ him fishy. Anyways, me’s furiends over at J-Cats made a really cool suggestion. They live in Israel and sed da Hebrew word fur fish is “Dag” purrnounced Doug. So me’s gonna call him Dougie. Dat way me’s still callin’ him fishy, Dougie just sounds better. So there ya’ have it. Me knows me hit ya’ with several reviews in a row, but dat’s what happens when ya’ take time off. As me sed earlier, it’s stormin’ here, so we will be ‘round to visit as soon as we can.
Meowllo everypawdy, hope you’re all havin’ a great week. Me told ya’ in me’s last posty dat we’s honored to be pawrt of da Chewy.com blogging family; and dat we receive some great purroducts every month to try out and tell you all ‘bout. And me also told ya’ dat mommy had chosen our items based on what she thought each of us would like. Me knows sis Lexi isn’t here anymore, but she did get to try a great food this month dat me needs to tell ya’ ‘bout. As ya’ know sissy had gotten really picky this last year and mommy was always tryin’ to find somethin’ she would eat and dat was good fur her. So mommy chose da Natural Balance Delectable Delights Catatouille Stew Wet Grain-Free cat food fur sissy in purrticular and me to try. Now let me tell ya’ a little ‘bout these noms.
‘Course they are wet and come in a 2.5 ounce plastic tub; 12 to a case. They also come in a multitude of flavors and either stew or pate. Ifin kitty likes gravy, then da stews are da way to go. Most of da formulas are fishy. Mommy chose da Catatouille cuz we’s don’t really eat much fish here. Fur health reasons mommy doesn’t like us to eat fish, so we never really developed a taste fur it. Here’s what’s in da Catatouille:
It doesn’t have any carrageenan, so dat’s a plus, and it’s grain free. Sissy luvved da Catatouille. She liked it so well, me never got to try it. At da end it was all mommy kuld get sissy to eat, so me gladly gave her me’s tubs. She wuld be givin’ these an all four paws up. They are full of gravy so fur those of ya’ dat add water to kitties meals fur medical reasons, it’s purrobably not needed here. These meals are complete and balanced fur an adult cat. So what did mommy think ‘bout them you ask?
Mommy had to edit out the mess on the table, thus the painted parts.
Well Dezi, I like that they are grain free and full of gravy. The pieces are small but there was plenty of chicken in each tub. They did contain a lot of vegetables as well, but as we said in your last review, that’s pretty normal in most cat foods these days. I was thrilled that Lexi liked them so much and would eat everything on her plate. They don’t contain carrageenan, but they do have tuna oil and guar gum. All in all, I would give these a thumb up. Even the ever pickier Lexi ate them up and I didn’t have to add water to make more gravy.
Well there ya’ go, a fumm up from mommy and four paws up from sissy. Me did get a good whiff of them and they smelled delishus. Altho’ all of our tubs were well blended, there were some kitties who received other formulas dat sed da dried spinach was bunched on da top of da food. So just be aware dat you may get a tub with a green glob on top. It’s not mold, it’s spinach. Just mix it in with da rest of da food or as one kitty did, throw it in da trash. We kitties don’t really need spinach so either way is fine.
