Blest Sunday Cat Beds

Published on by Service Cats U.S.42 Comments

Meowllo everypawdy and welcome to another Blest Sunday. Me has sooooooooo much to tell ya’ there’s no way me can tell it all today. You know me’s a little chatty and long winded but me’s sure you all don’t have da time to read a book today. So me will have to break up all me’s news into a few postys. So let me see…where should me start?

 Dezi atop the cat tree

About a week or so ago we got a pawsum box from awnty Mary Beth, uncle Garth, Gizmo and da gang. Now me had never had a cat bed, me hadn’t even seen one till a couple years ago when they sent me and sis Lexi our furst kitty bed. Mommy figgered we would never use one cuz we sleep in da big bed with her; so she was a little afraid dat she wouldn’t have any fotos to post of us enjoyin’ those beds. But guess what? We luvved ‘em, ‘specially me. You’ve seen me’s video. In case ya’ haven’t, check it out below. Ifin ya’ can’t see it there, click here.

Anyways, back to now and da box we recently got from awnty Mary Beth. Mommy opened da box and inside was a couple of coffee related gifts fur mommy’s birthday and these 2 huge black trash bags. Now wait a minute. Let me tell ya’ me thinks mommy was just as ‘xcited ‘bout da trash bags as she was ‘bout da coffee stuffs. So mommy emptied da box and those trash bags and lo and behold there was 2 brand new bootyful cat beds. In case ya’ couldn’t make it out in da video above, me has literally massaged and suckled those old beds till there ain’t any of da softy fleece on a few sides. So awnty Mary Beth had decided to send me a new one. But wait…she sent two kitty beds ‘stead of one? Dat was pawsumly nice of her, but me can only sleep in one at a time, so me isn’t sure why she sent me two beds?.

What’s dat mommy? Oh da second bed is fur me’s new sisfur? Well doesn’t awnty Mary Beth know we’re havin’ trouble findin’ one? Ya’ know a couple of shelters and rescues wouldn’t even talk to us once they found out we didn’t live in da same city/town as them. A couple of da rescues charged over $200 fur their adoption fees but they didn’t have any kitties anyways. And then ‘member dat rescue dat insisted you adopt two kitties? Of course they threw ya’ a bone by givin’ ya half off on da second kitten, but as much as you might like to have three kitty’s da ‘pawrtment manager would kick us out. And then of course there’s da two kitties (different kitties/litters/peeps) we thought was gonna be ours who died befur you could get down da road to pick them up. We already wrote ‘bout one of them.

What’s dat mommy? Yes, she knows? Me’s new sisfur will arrive when she’s ‘posed too?. Well okay, in da meantime, me will just break both these beds in, okay? Well me’s sendin’ out a meowsy big fank you to awnty Mary Beth, uncle Garth, Gizmo and da gang. Me luvs da new kitty beds and me’s sure me’s new sisfur will think da same thing. What a blessing our furiends are. We are so thrilled to have all of you in our lives.  We thank God and ask Him to look out fur and bless you all everyday. ‘Member today and everyday to take a minute to count da blessings in your life.

Me would like to take a minute to tell ya’ll ‘bout this pawsum new Cat Dancer toy. You all know dat me discovered this great toy recently. Mommy had never bought me one cuz she didn’t know what to do with it. It’s a wire with some cardboard tubes but no handle fur mommy to use to play with me. Recently da company created a new Cat Dancer with a handle. And not just any handle but one dat could be clipped to a cage so dat shelter kitties could enjoy it and have a little play time while waiting fur their furever homes. They’ve started a Kickstarter campaign to raise da money fur purrduction. And ifin ya’ support da campaign you can even get your very own. Ifin you’re innerested you can check it out here. You know spendin’ so much time in shelters and rescues lately made mommy ‘member dat a lot of these kitties get very little inneraction day in and day out and even fewer get to play, so we luv this idea and wish da Cat Dancer peeps da bestest of luck. Me wouldn’t mind havin’ one of these meself.

Blest Sunday

Published on by Service Cats U.S.41 Comments

Meowllo and welcome to a brand new week. Of course me’s startin’ it off with a Blest Sunday posty. As you already know we had a pawsumly blest week and celebrated mommy’s birthday. Mommy says it was so nice to see so many who don’t admit their age either. But me wants to know why it is dat humans don’t like to get older or admit they are but when it comes to us anipals, ya’ll seem to get all beside yourself excited da older we get? You know, what’s up with dat?

Dezi in red pin art with purple threads.
Well mommy isn’t any good with DIY so we found this pin art in one of da foto editin’ apps and thought we would share it. Can ya’ make me out? MOL

Anyways, we have a question fur ya’ll. As ya’ know mommy doesn’t have any two legged non furry kids, and at this point in her life doesn’t want any. Me says fank catness, cuz me likes it just like it is. You know what would me do with a non furry? Me hears they get all sticky and chase us kitties around and try to pull our tails and such. Me has a lot of furs and sure wouldn’t wanna have to clean all da sticky off. And let me tell you, me may be gentle and all but pull me’s tail and me will go all ninja and whacky paw ya’ fur sure. (Dezi imitates her ninja moves and whacky paw- “KeeeeeYa”) Anyways, me’s getting’ off track. Let’s get back to dat question. Seems Direct TV has a new commercial and one of da lines says, “rethink havin’ that second child.” Now let me tell ya, mommy finds dat totally offensive and we don’t even have those kind of kiddies. Da commercial’s been playin’ now fur over a month, so obviously nopawdy’s sayin’ a thing. We don’t know ifin peeps just ain’t payin’ attention or ifin they think dat’s okay. So, purrlease, weigh in on this.

In other news, fur all of ya’ dat sent us e-mails askin’, yes mommy is still takin’ care of Buddy. Mr. W is gonna milk his rehab stay as long as he can, so he’s been transferred from da hospital in Ardmore to our hospital. A few years ago they revamped our hospital and put in a rehab center fur peeps just like mr. W. After mommy told him to quit orderin’ her around, he stayed mad at her fur ‘bout a week and finally called and asked nicely how Buddy was doin’. No, he never pawlogized, and he never will. At some point, he’ll start bossin’ her around again and mommy will tell him off again and we’ll start all over. It’s just da way of things. Some peeps are just too stubborn to learn from their faux pas. Fancy word dat faux pas, right? MOL

We feel truly blest to have all of you in our lives. This past week was made easier because of all of you. Mommy still missed sissy and still had da sads, but your support helped ease da pain. And we are blest to have received da material blessings we had this week. And we’re always blest to have your purrayers and support. Remember to take a minute today and each day to give thanks fur da blessings in your lives. You will always be in our purrayers. Me’s gonna go take a nap now. Ooops, me almost furgot. Me’s joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies.

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

So what do you think about the Direct TV commercial?

Blest Sunday And Other Stuff

Published on by Service Cats U.S.43 Comments

Well here we are at da beginnin’ of another week. Do you like me’s title? “Other Stuff”, real intelligent huh? MOL  Anyways, dat means it’s time fur Blest Sunday. We like to start our week off reflectin’ on our blessings. You know blessings can be found anywhere. Even when all you see is bad, ya’ just have to look. Me will tell ya’ ‘bout just one of those dat happened this week. But furst me wants to say thank you. Thank you fur bein’ our furiends and just fur bein’ you. Your furiendship is somethin’ we never have to look hard to see da blessing in.

 Dezi lays on the floor

Let me give ya an example. A while back our furiend, awnty Rachel, from Three Chatty Cats was havin’ a give away. There were these really cute kitties in bow ties magnets up fur da purrize. Well we didn’t win. But da winner, Alison, from da Sarcastic Dog said they wanted to give their purrize to somepawdy who might need a little cheerin’ up. As you know we’ve been spendin’ a lot of time around da bottom of da rocks what with missin’ sis Lexi and all, and so awnty Rachel thought of us right away. Well we got those cutesy magnets this week, and they really made mommy smile. A meowsy big thank you to awnty Rachel, awnty Alison and Cats in Bowties.com.

Ain’t these just da cutest little button magnets?

 

Mommy was so excited over her cutesy little magnets dat she wasn’t really payin’ attention to where she was goin’ in her bare feet when she spotted somethin’ outta da corner of her eye on da dining room floor. Well you know mommy doesn’t see very well anyways and we rarely turn on da dining room lights; so there she was squintin’ and lookin’ to see ifin she could tell what it was. Finally she thought me had left a little poop droplet on da flloor so she got a paper towel and bent over to pick it up. Me doesn’t know why she thought me did dat, but bein’ da baby me’s used to getting’ blamed fur everythin’ so me rolled with it. Well mommy picked it up and turned toward da light to look see and…OMC dat wasn’t poop, dat was a STINGIN’ SCORPIAN!!! Well mommy dropped it like a hot potato and looked fur somethin’ to kill it with and quick. ‘Member now she was bare footed. Mommy was sure blest he didn’t whack her with his stinger.

 Caution: Dead bug with guts foto below!!!

It was movin’ too fast fur momy to feel comfurtable leavin’ it to get da camera. Till it was dead dat is. MOL

 

Anyways, ya’ know me told ya’ dat mommy had been checkin’ out stuffs fur takin’ care of a baby kitten, right? Well turns out dat mommy had been told ‘bout a kitty dat had given birth. Now this was her furst heat and furst litter and really she shouldn’t have been havin’ kitties, but, well, da peeps round here don’t really see da need fur spayin’ and neuterin’ like we all do. We’s workin’ on educatin’, but it takes a while. We gotta get those kitties in da house and thought of as more than mousers in da furst place. Anyhow, this little kitty girl had one little kitten. Well mommy got word dat da baby wasn’t doin’ so good. So dat’s why mommy was getting’ everythin’ together. She was gonna take on dat kitty and nurse it back to health and make it ours. But befur she could get there to pick it up, it went on to heaven. We think it had been sick longer than da peeps realized and so by da time they noticed, it was too late. Purrlease, Spay and Neuter your pets. Yes this is very sad. But we do see da blessing. Da kitten is with Jesus now and no longer sick. We couldn’t really afford to take on a kitty with life long health problems, so in da end it all worked out. Da mommy kitty can hopefully recover and be spayed. Her owners didn’t say they would yet, but we’re hopin’.

Dezi's selfie in mommy's lap

Me’s been spendin’ a lot of time hangin’ out in mommy’s lap. She says we really need to find me a sisfur soon befur me turns into a couch potato. Whatever dat is.

 

We believe things happen fur a reason and dat God’s in control. And dat He’ll send us just da right kitty at just da right time. Mommy says she’s all set now, so whenever kitty shows up, we’re ready. MOL  Mommy’s also been busy da last few days talkin’ to peeps about da PSA job. They all wanna know everythin’ befur they apply or interview. We got a ton of one liner emails cuz mommy doesn’t know how to text, and we know dat’s what they all think they’re doin’. Mommy’s ad says to email contact infurmation fur an appkication, or call and leave a message. She gets these emails sayin’, “you told me to email you.” and lots of hang ups or messages without a number to reach them at. And they wanna do it one sentence at a time. Mommy says somepawdy dropped da ball in teachin’ folks how to get a job. Anyways, we’re blest to have da program and qualify fur it cuz mommy needs help with things me can’t do. Me’s gonna wrap it up now. But befur me goes, me’s joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur Selfie Sunday. Don’t furget to stop and take a minute to say thanks fur da blessings in your life. 

Do you think texting is an appropriate way to inquire about and apply for a job?

Do you think mommy’s being too old fashioned expecting peeps to actually fill out an application and meet in person to have an interview? 

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

Blest Sunday Straw Hats and Selfies

Published on by Service Cats U.S.40 Comments

Meowllo everypawdy and welcome to another pawsumly Blest Sunday and more as you can see by me’s title. You know with all da talk ‘bout Buddy lately me’s been thinkin’ and given lots of thanks fur me’s mommy and home. Ya’ see, Buddy be da same age as me is and dat means he coulda been here with me’s mommy instead of me had circumstances been different. How’s dat you ask? Well mommy had just lost a fur baby and service kitty and was searchin’ fur a kitty just like now.

 Dezi cocks head to the side in thought

Occasionally peeps drop off their unwated kittens and cats out here at our ‘pawrtment complex and of course all da old peeps feed them. Just so happens dat at da time mommy was searchin’ there weren’t any strays bein’ fed here dat she knew of. And then of course she got da call ‘bout me. Ifin you wanna read up on how me came to be here with mommy you can click here and here. Anyways, da minute mommy met me and me chose her, she was smitten and wasn’t leavin’ without me. So me came home to live with mommy. And then a couple weeks later mr. W came wheelin’ up da walk with a kitty in his arms. Apparently he had been feedin’ him as a stray and mommy didn’t even know he was around. Da point is, dat ifin Buddy had’a showed up at mommy’s house just a few weeks earlier, she never woulda met me. God was sure lookin’ out fur me. So me’s been givin’ lots of thanks fur me’s blessings. Cuz ifin me hadn’t met mommy me wouldn’t have met any of you either. Me doesn’t even wanna think about life without all me’s furiends and blessings.

Blessings come in all different shapes and sizes and sometimes when you least expect them. Me’s life is overflowin’ with ‘em, and me thinks ifin ya’ just look around a minute you’ll find yours is too. We got a bit of a cold snap this weekend and it’s really gloomy out so me’s been getting’ some extra snuggles and cuddles in. And ya’ know what? Sis Lexi used to sleep ‘tween mommy’s legs and me slept by her side up under her arm. But fur da last couple of nights me has slept ‘tween mommys legs. Well at least pawrt of da night. Sis Lexi had short furs and didn’t get as hot as me does ‘pawrently. Mommy says she feels blest dat me does it at all, she doesn’t care whether me stays there all night or not. So mommy’s been thankin’ God fur her blessings too. With all da cuddlin’ goin’ on me got a few selfies to share, so me’s joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur da Sunday Selfie blog hop. It’s also National Straw Hat day, so me had to show off a hat. Mommy said so. MOL

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