Blest Sunday News And Updates

Well here it is, Blest Sunday again. We do feel blest, altho’ we’ve been havin’ all kinds of troubles this past week. Our catputer is actin’ up so we haven’t been able to get ‘round and visit with you all. It may be dat da fan on da mother board isn’t workin’ cuz our catputer keeps shuttin’ down and claimin it’s reachin’ temps of 900 degrees. Now dat’s hot. Of course we don’t have any tech places here so mommy called ‘round in Ardmore where they have 1 place and found out it wuld cost ‘bout $100.00 and take a week to get it back up and runnin’. So mommy’s had it on ice fur a couple days so we kuld post this update and let you all know why we haven’t been ‘round. And yes, me literally means, Ice. She’s got ice packs in towels placed ‘round it to try to keep it cool enuff to stay on.

In other news, sis Lexi is havin’ a really bad weekend. Me heard mommy tellin’ her dat she had to eat to stay alive. And dat she wasn’t ready fur sissy to not be alive. Folks, me’s really, really worried this time. Me just doesn’t unnerstand why sissy won’t eat. We won her a new eatin’ plate from Dr. Catsby’s in da give away over at Zee and Zoeys, so she should be enjoyin’ not havin’ dat whisker fatigue anymore. But all she wants to do is sleep. Sissy could really use your purrayers right now.

Mommy and me have her monthly doctors ‘pointment tomorrow, and we’s got a notice dat we’s havin’ a big ‘partment inspection this month, not just da regular one; so mommy’s gotta do some extra cleanin’ to get ready fur it. Me’s hopin’ mr. Sunshine comes back tomorrow, cuz me’s tired of da gray skies. And me doesn’t wanna have to have da rain coat on me’s stroller. Me knows it’s there to purrtect me frrom da elements, but it interferes with me’s ability to smell da furesh air. Mommy had to add a piece of material to me’s harness cuz ‘parently me’s gained a few pounds on me’s new freeze dried raw diet. Mommy sez me’s healthy and not fat; me’s just finally getting’ da purropurr nutrition, so all’s good.

Fursday Is Furiday When You Pull An All-Nighter

Oh Furiday what took you so long? We was so confused we kept callin’ Fursday, Furiday. MOL  Now you may be wunnerin’ why we was so confused, right? Well let me ‘splain. As you know mommy uses a wheelchair in da meowning’s cuz she can’t get ‘round on da legs God gave her till she gets her medicine and her muscles and all wake up. Anyways, those wheelchairs run on rechargeable batteries. Seems everything runs on batteries these days. And you know, nuffin’ these days is made to last includin’ da batteries in those wheelchairs. Over da last couple of weeks da chair has been getting’ slower and slower. See once we learn how to drive da wheelchair mommy let’s us turn up da speed a bit. But here lately even on full out wheely mode da chair wuld barely creep along and when it hit a little bump it would come to a joltin’ stop and start beepin’ at us. So mommy knew it was time fur new batteries but she didn’t know who to call. See da company we got da chair from is no longer in business. And Medicare likes to work with da same company they bought an item from fur repairs. We don’t why, we just know there’s a lot of red tape to switch companies.

Me’s welkummin’ Furiday and da sunshine

Anyways, mommy had to ask around to find out who everypawdy was usin’ since they all got their wheelchairs from da same place. Mr. W has someone out here workin’ on his chair all da time, so he finally gave mommy a nummer to call to get new batteries fur her chair. When mommy called ‘em they set up a pointment with her fur yesfurday furst thing in da meownin’. She didn’t get to choose a time or she wulda chose sometime in da afternoon of course. Anyways, knowin’ dat she can’t get ‘round in da meownings she knew she wuld have to stay up all night Wednesday and continue takin’ medicine so she kuld function when da repairman got here Fursday. Me has to tell ya’, me doesn’t like all-nighters. We all miss out on prime snugglin’ time. Fankfully it doesn’t happen all da time. Sis Lexi gave up ‘round 4 a.m. and she went off to da bed to get some sleep. Me on da other hand wasn’t leavin’ mommy’s site, so me laid down in one of da cat beds we have dat be unner mommys desk. Me kuld ketch a little shut eye and still watch over mommy. Needless to say we both kept noddin’ off. Mommy sez she’s getting’ to old fur these kinda things.

It’z about time da we got new batteriez fur da wheelchair

Well Fursday finally arrived and mommy fed sissy and me a little early so da repairman wuldn’t innerupt our brekky, and then she sat down to wait fur da call. We’s not in da GPS so she spected him to call fur directions since he was comin’ from da big city (Oklahoma City). Well she waited and waited and waited some more, but no call came. Finally a little after noon da repairman called and sed he wuld be at our house in about an hour. Mommy was exhausted and fit to be tied. All she kuld say was, dat we kulda went to bed and got all those snuggles we missed out on. Oh well kulda, wulda, shulda, right?

Lexi lays in wheelchair

Da repairman finally arrived ‘bout 1:30 p.m. and sed he had batteries in his truck. So he turned on mommys wheelchair and tried to navigate it outside. They never do anythin’ in your house. Mommy hates dat cuz she doesn’t trust them, but she has no choice lessen she wants to go outside and watch ‘em. Da batteries were so drained dat when he got to da front door, da chair wuldn’t even go over da little hump. He had to manually push da chair all da way out to his truck. It’s not dat far to da parkin’ lot from our partment, but it took 15 minutes fur him to get dat chair outside. It was kinda chilly yesfurday, but repair man was workin’ up a sweat. Anyways, he replaced da batteries and brought da chair back to da house and left and mommy sed, “WooHoo, girls it’s nap time.

Dezi laying in wheelchair
Me needs a nap.

We’s got a purropurrly workin’ wheelchair again and can finally go faster than da tortoise. So needless to say me had to play a little this meownin’ afur deliverin’ da chair to mommy. Me went speedy zip zoomy and ran smack dab into da bed. Neither mommy nor sis Lexi was amused. At least we’s finally caught up with da days and it’s still Furiday. MOL  So as far as we’s concerned, we’s had two Furidays this week. We’ll be round to visit as soon as we can, mommy’s still tryin’ to ketch up on da rest she missed and sissy and me are tryin’ to ketch up on da cuddles. As we do every week, we’s joinin’ Rascal and Rocco fur da Pet Parade blog hop. Check it out, ya’ might make a new furiend or two. Me’s gotta go get some more cuddles now, so me will see ya’ later.

 

When was da last time you stayed up all night?

After an all nighter are you alert or walkin’ in a haze?

Would you like to have 2 Furidays a week?

 

Till da next time………………………………………Be Blest!!!

All Before Noon

Well it’s not even noon and mommy’s been cleanin’ non stop. Course by da time you read this it will be well after noon. Anyways, me tried to help her with all dat cleanin’ but she didn’t seem all dat impressed with me’s attempts. Let me ‘splain. After getting’ up this meownin’ and goin’ thru our normal routine we headed to da kitchen so mommy kuld make sis Lexi and me sum brekky. She always has a drink cup with melted ice from da night afur dat she has to wash up afur getting’ down to da business of puttin’ our noms in our plates. So mommy got out our plates and put them on da prep counter and then turned da water on to wash up da drinkin’ cup. Now lots of ya’ will member dat mommy has times when she doesn’t feel her extremities, da legs, arms, hands and feet. But thru da years she has learned to make ‘em work even when she doesn’t feel ‘em, it just takes a lot of concentration.

Dezi stretching the arch backed pose on the vanity

Well this meownin’ was one of those times. Unfurtunately mommys’ concentration musta been somewhere else, cuz when she went to pick up da drinkin’ cup, it slipped right outta her hand and fell to da floor splatterin’ sticky watered down drink all over da place. She saw it fallin’ and didn’t even try to stop it. And once it hit da ground, she just stared at it pourin’ da remainin’ liquid all over da floor. Me meowed and sis Lexi hissed tryin’ to break thru mommy’s meownin’ haze. Mommy shook her head as ifin to shake off da haze and sed, “Oh my cats, I’ve gotta clean that up.” She reached down to pick up da cup and me saw da puddle of liquid on da floor and went over to mop with me’s floofy tail and paws. Yep, me just walked right into dat puddle and sat down and started da tail swoosh. Back and forth went me’s tail and da liquid went splashin’ even further onto da floor. Me even swooshed sum right up in sis Lexi’s face. Me is such a good helper. And me knew sissy kuld use a drink after takin’ her antacid, so she shulda purreciated havin’ a drink delivered right to her mouth, right?.

My mouth’s not that big!!!

 

Well it seems nopawdy was impurressed with me’s help cuz sissy hissed at me and mommy threw out da paper towel she had been usin’ to clean her legs with and started hollerin’, “Oh Dezi, NO! Now you’ve gotta have a bath too.” A bath? Uh no, not afur brekky me thought, and took off runnin’. Sis Lexi was in hot pursuit as me’s tail swooshed and continued to scatter sticky liquid thru out da house includin’ more in sissy’s face as she was so close behind me. By now mommy was hot on her tail and hollerin’ da whole time, “Dezi! Get back here, NOW!” Back there, me thought? So does she want me to help or not? You know sometimes you just can’t seem to purrlease anypawdy. Sissy retreated to da bed fur a little tongue and spit bath and mommy scooped me up and to da pawdee box room we went fur a purropurr bath. Me smells really purretty now, and all afur brekky.

Dezi laying on the floor and licking paw
Hmmmmm me thinks mommy missed a spot.

 

Mommy got da floor cleaned as bestest she kuld so we kuld get our brekky afur lunch, and sed she wuld get to da moppin’ with an appropriate tool later. Least da floor, sis Lexi and me ain’t sticky any more and we did get our brekky afur lunch. And mommy finally got to sit down and have a purropurr cup of coffee. Me guesses mommy will still tell peeps dat we can’t do chores like moppin’. You know tomorrow is ifin pets had fumms (thumbs) day. And me bets dat ifin me had those fumms me kulda really cleaned dat floor to mommys likin’. And me kulda made her a cup o’ joe too. And we wuld be able to work da flashy box to ketch some of mommys’ funny antics. Just think of all da things we cats kuld do with fumms. Me wuldn’t have to dictate me’s postys, me kuld drive da wheelchair with me’s paws ‘stead of me’s mouth, and we kuld take over da world. Well, me’s gunna go dream ‘bout all da things we kuld do with fumms.

 

Have you ever had a hazy moment that resulted in a mess?

How would you (or your pet) use thumbs if they had them?

Holistic Blend First Impressions #ChewyInfluencer

Well we told you in our last posty dat we were puttin’ Buddy thru a 30 day challenge with some new noms. It’s called Holistic Blend. And we innerduced you to da handsum Buddy so dat even our new furiends wuld know him. We’ll be writin’ a 3 post series durin’ da month of March, startin’ with this one. As we told ya’ in our last posty we received da noms fur Buddy free of charge as part of da Chewy Blogger Program.

So our furst posty in this series is posed to be about our furst impressions of da food. So, even afur receivin’ da bag, mommy checked out da Holistic Blend web site and Chewy’s infurmation on it. They have kibble furmulas fur doggies and kitties. Naturally we chose da kitty furmula fur Buddy. It’s called All Life Stages Chicken and Salmon Formula and comes in two sizes, 3 lbs. and 10 lbs.. Well ifin you kuldn’t tell by da fotos, Buddy like sis Lexi and me is a big kitty boy so we got da 10 lb. bag as he usually eats 7 1/2 to 8 1/2 pounds a month. Aside from Buddy getting’ it fur meals, mommy thought we kuld keep a little fur maybe sum treats.

So when da bag arrived from Chewy mommy kuldn’t wait to check it out. Da bag is quite sturdy and has a resealable opening to help keep it fresh. When mommy was settin’ it up fur fotos, me was really innersted in checkin’ it out fur meself. Right on da front of da bag they list da “good” ingredients inside and what’s not in it. It contains Chicken meal as da furst ingredient, millet, wild salmon, cranberries, apples and cinnamon. It does not have corn, beet pulp, wheat, BHT, BHA or Ethoxyquin. It also does not contain carageenan or da gums. Mommy’s not crazy ‘bout “meal” bein’ da furst ingredient, but was happy to see dat it didn’t have da other controversial ingredients.

Buddy licking lips

Da next step was to open da bag and check it out. It’s been a while since we’s had any kibble in da house so mommy furgot ‘bout how strong they can smell. It doesn’t stink, but it does have a very strong attracting odor. Me can attest to dat. Me was stickin’ me’s nose as close to da bag as mommy wuld let me. Da kibble itself is small and shaped kind of like a solid triangle. So mommy took a little out and put it in a treat baggy fur later and then took da big bag up to Buddy fur more fotos. And of course so he kuld start da challenge. Me will let Buddy tell ya’ what his furst impressions were now.

Buddy:  Y thank ya’ Dezi. Ya’ know my pops usually keeps my foods in da bottom cabinet so it was purretty strange to see da bag in da middle of da floor. But I was sure interested in checkin’ it out. Since your mommy had opened it, I kuld smell it purrmeatin’ thru da bag. I may not have as good of manners as you and Lexi, but even when your mommy opened da bag I didn’t immediately jump in. But when your mommy took a few pieces out and put ‘em down fur me I kuldn’t gobble ‘em up fast enuff, flashy box or not. After those few pieces, pops put da bag away and said I’d start da challenge da next meownin’ at breakfast. I really kuldn’t wait. So all in all, I’d say my furst impressions was all paws up.

Thanks Buddy, we sure hope yous enjoyin’ ‘em. Mommy will be checkin’ in with you and mr. W thru out da month to see how it’s goin’. So there ya’ have it folks. Furst impressions are dat Buddy is fur sure innerested in eatin’ ‘em and da resealable bag fur freshness is always welkum. As me sed earlier, we’ll keep ya’ posted on how it’s goin’. As always, check out Chewy fur all your pets needs. They have great prices, speedy and free over $49.00 shipping and pawsum customer service peeps.
