Blest Sunday: The Blessing Train Is On The Move

MeOW  RaenaBelle, quit jumpin’ on me. It’s time fur our Blest Sunday posty, and kittens is me ever x’cited. Did ya’ see? Our Blessing Train is gettin’ longer. We’ve had several furiends hop on board and add their boxcar to ours. Me hopes lots more will join in the Blessing Train fun. 

 

Dezi sits atop the cat tree while Raena sits on the small perch

 

 

 

 

          Me too, sissy. There’s purrlenty of box cars and lots of track left. I’s would luvs to see our Train go ‘round the world and back again, wouldn’t you?

 

 

The Blessing Train

 

 

 

Yep Raena, that would be purretty cool. We’ll tell ya’ how to join in a minute, but furst, let’s take a look at who hopped on this past week. (In no purrticular order x’cept how the fotos saved to our computer) 

 

Canadian Cats Boxcar

 

 

 

Our long time furiends from the Canadian Cats, Shoko, Tyebe and Budd jumped on the tracks and hooked up their boxcar. We’re so Blest to have ya’ll and fanks fur joinin’ in. Ya’ know, Tyebe and Budd are fairly new members of Fort Meezer and Budd be a handsum tabby. They keep awnty Jean and uncle Bill on their toes. Hearts of gold they have and they’re all a bit cheeky in their own ways. MOL We’re so happy and Blest to call ya’ll furiends. 

 

          I’s just luvs them sissy. 

 

You luv everypawdy Raena.  

 

Feline Cafe boxcar

 

 

 

          I’s do sissy. But that’s a good thing, right? Anyways, next up is our sweet furiends from the Feline Café, Scooby, Opie, Zeke, Marigold and their daddy (uncle) Greg. Aren’t they gawjus? What an amazin’ little family they are. And just the sweetest cats and peep. Truer furiends you’ll never meet. Whether loungin’ ‘round the house or playin’ in their catio, we doubt there’s ever a dull moment at their place. We’re so glad ya’ll hopped on and hooked up. We’re so Blest to call ya’ll furiends. 

 

Valentine Boxcar

 

 

 

That we are, Raena, that we are. The last kit to hop onboard this week is the sweetest black Persian of the Blogosphere, Valentine from Noir Kitty Mews. Which reminds me of a Blessing we received this week. Fank you Val and awnty Kerry fur the Christmas gifts. Raena stuck her nose in the bag, but mommy snatched it away and told her not till Christmas. That Valentine ain’t just a handsum face tho’, he’s got a heart big as Texas and purrsonality too. We’re so Blest to call ya’ll furiends.  

 

Raena sits on cat tree with gift from Val and KerryFanky fank you Valentine and awnty Kerry.

 

 

 

          Sissy, we really are Blest with the bestest furiends in the universe. You know, true furiends know your flaws and luvs you anyways. Now that’s a Blessing. We are so Blest to have each other. And that’s our Blessing this week, Luvs. We know it sounds kind’a silly cuz everypawdy knows you have to have money to pay fur things you need like food and homes and cars and stuffs, but we truly believe that Luvs is the most ‘purrtant thing. 

 

Dezi n Raena check our Christmas gifts from Valentine and KerrySuch purretty wrapping’s we’ll hate to tear them up…NOT!!! Fank you.

 

 

 

Yep Raena, we do. Studies have been done that show humans can’t truly survive completely alone. And while peeps may try to say we kitties are solitary creatures, we thrive when we have the luv of a good purrson. We know that sometimes it comes off as ifin we’re purrfect and always get along. And that you’re doin’ somethin’ wrong ifin your kitties aren’t doin’ the same thing. But, we posted a couple of fotos the other day of us havin’ a “disagreement”. Mommy says in her eyes we are purrfect, and even when we have these minor spats, it’s all worth it when she sees us sharin’ a moment like the one below. We’re not really purrfect, but cuz mommy only sees us with eyes of luv, then to her, we are.

          And cuz of the luvs she has fur us, we in turn luvs each other, right sissy?  

  

Red Box CarSave this foto and decorate it for yourself.

 

 

 

Yes Raena, you’re right. You can be a pest sometimes, but me luvs you anyways. Without luv, where would we be? We don’t wanna know, and we know ya’ll don’t either.  Now, let’s tell ya’ how to join the Blessing train fur yourself. We’ve had a few of you ask fur better instructions, so we’ll try. Ifin ya’ need more help, just send us an email and we’ll do what we can to get you linked up.

Chatting Cats: A Gooey Lounge Play Date

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. You’re never gonna guess who came over fur a play date. Look’it, It’s the beautiful ginger Annie and her handsum smart eared brofur Pierrot from the Gooey Lounge. We’re so glad ya’ll could paw over fur a play date.

 

Dezi, Annie, and Pierrot lay on the floor

          Dezi: We sure are. Kittens!!! Raena never stops. Me hears you like to romp and play too, Pierrot.

 

     Pierrot: I sure do. I love to play and run. (Raena and Pierrot start zooming down the hall, leaving Dezi and Annie sitting in the chair

 

          Dezi: (Shakes head) Young’un’s!!! Well, maybe those two will tire each other out. Me’s glad we’ve got a few minutes to ourselves. We just luv ya’ll, even tho’ we haven’t known ya’ that long. Me knows we have lots of furiends that’s never even met ya’, so why don’t you tell us a little ‘bout ya’ll. 

 

 Dezi lays on arm of chair while Annie lays in chair

 

 

 

     Annie: Thanks Dezi, and thanks for inviting us over. I’m an 11 year old orange tabby and I came to live with the lady and big guy, that’s what we call our mom and dad; 6 years ago. My previous owners were moving and going to put me in a shelter back in California. I was so very scared at first. It broke the lady’s heart to see how terrified I was.

 

          Dezi: Mommy’s…they luv us so much don’t they?

 

     Annie: At first I wasn’t so sure. But with a lot of changes, I’m very happy and comfortable in my home now. I love the lady and big guy so much. You know, they saved my life, I just know it.

          Dezi: Girl, we are two of the blestest kitties ever. We’ve got the bestest pawrents in the universe. Give me the low down on Pierrot. We just luv his little ears. We think they give him so much purrsonality. 

 

     Annie: He’s got personality to spare then. Pierrot’s 5 years old and 3 years ago the lady and big guy just thought they had to have him. They adopted him from Save the Cats, a local animal rescue that fosters homeless kitties. Really, he’s not that bad. And, a year earlier the big guy had lost his beloved Simba and really needed a new friend. I guess it’s really nice that they saved Pierrot. I’m used to him now. I’m sure you know all about that. MOL

 

 Dezi profile as she lays in mommy's lap getting love

 

 

 

          Dezi: Me sure does. At least we have humans with purrlenty of luv to share. How did ya’ll start bloggin’?

 

     Annie: Pierrot and I actually inherited the blog. The lady started blogging back in 2009 for her then kitty Lucy. Of course Simba made a few guest appearances, and then came me and finally Pierrot. The lady had wanted to meet some kitties and people who love cats to share stories and photos with. 

 

Raena: (Raena and Pierrot run through and zoom up the Liberty cat tree) Hey, ya’ll come over here with us. We purromiss not to whacky paw anykitty. 

 

 Dezi, Raena, Annie and Pierrot lay on the Liberty cat tree

 

 

 

     Annie: I don’t think I can climb up there, my first people had my claws removed. And sometimes my short back legs don’t work just right. 

 

 

Raena: No worries gawjus. Just give mommy “the look”, she’ll help ya’ up and down all day long. She’s the bestest. (Mommy A helps Annie on the tree and gives them all some treats Annie and Pierrot had brought with them) Fanky fanks fur the treats ya’ll, they’re yummy. What kinds of things do ya’ll like to do at home?

 

 

 Dezi, Raena, Annie and Pierrot lay on the Liberty cat tree

 

 

 

     Annie: I love cozy blankets and sun puddles. We both do really. One of my favorite things is spending the evenings with the lady while she reads or watches teevee. She gives me belly rubs and chin scritches and I just purr and purr. I also love grass with a passion. Sometimes the lady grows me a fresh pot. The lady works from home and sometimes takes short breaks just to spend time with me. I guess you girls are right, we really are the most blest kitties ever. I also like to play with catnip toys. Of course, not too many cats don’t right? 

 

     Pierrot: I Love catnip toys too, Annie. And balls and mousies, and well just about everything.

 

Raena: Me too Pierrot, me too. 

 

 Raena and Annie lay on the Liberty Cat tree

 

 

 

     Annie: Well, we better get back home if I’m going to spend the evening with the lady. We sure do appreciate your kind hospitality and friendship.

 

          Dezi: Aaaaaaaaaaaaaw Fanks. We luv ya’ll too. We’re really glad to be your furiends. Give the lady and the big guy some purrs from us and come back anytime. 

 

The Blessing Train

Raena: Sissy, we have the bestest furiends in the universe. Ya’ know what else we need to do today? We need to pick our Blessin’ fur the Blessing Train. Hearin’ ‘bout Annie and Pierrot’s adoptions and thinkin’ ‘bout our own, I’s say today’s Blessin’ is Luvvin’ Furever Homes. ‘Member, you too can hop on the Blessin’ Train fur our 12 Days of Blessings.
