Blest Sunday Inclusion

Published on by Service Cats U.S.39 Comments

Meowllo and welcome to a brand new Blest Sunday. It seems fall has arrived fur most peeps and cooler tem-purr-atures are arrivin’. Y, It was even cool here one meownin’. Our area  doesn’t usually see much fall. It’s hot right up till halloween and suddenly it’s 30°F. So we were happy to have dat cool meownin’. Not dat we were out in it, mind ya’, but we knew ‘bout it. MOL  Anyways, this week’s gonna be a busy one fur us. We’ve got dat repairman comin’ tomorrow to fix da a/c pipe and clean da coils. Mommy has her regular monthly doctors ‘pointment on Furiday, and we sure hope somethin’ can be done with her medicines, cuz it’s been a really tough month fur her. And then on Caturday, sis Raena has her special spa day. WooHoo  Me sure hopes she calms down some afterwards.

 Dezi lays in lap and takes a selfie

 

 

       What’s dat sissy? Why would I calm down after mines spa day?

Uh, No reason Raena. Just wishful thinkin’ on me’s pawrt and purrobably mommys’ too.

 Dezi looks out while Raena surveys the living room

       Oh sissy, you know you luvs me and so does mommy. She even lets me sleep under da covers with her.

Of course we luv you Raena, but we’d luv a calmer you too. As fur sleepin’ under da covers, good fur you. But it gets too hot under there fur me.

       Yeah sissy it does get hot, but it sure is fun.

Well Raena enjoy it while it lasts. Someday you’re gonna have so much fur you won’t like it either. Anyways, you know how much we luv all our furiends, and feel so blest to have them right?

 Raena lays on the pounce toy.

       Of course sissy. When mommy picked me up, I was so scared I didn’t know where she was takin’ me or what might be there. All I had ever known was bars and burnin’ eyes and a nose from all da amonia. God sure blest me. I got a wonderful luvvin’ mommy, a gawjus sissy, a purretty smellin’ home, lots and lots of toys, and amazin’, wonderful, kind, carin’, supurrb furiends.

Dezi looks out from perch

 This purrch used to be all we had befur we were blest with our

Cat trees. Me used to sit here all da time and look out da door.

This past week we posted da foto below of Raena and

confused a lot of peeps. Mommy says she doesn’t see

da sameness ya’ll see, cuz to her we don’t look anythin’ alike.

But we thought you might enjoy a blast from me’s past to compare.

 

 

 

Raena looks out from the perch

Yep, this is Raena, not me. MOL

Yes Raena, you got blest alright. Our furiends are amazin’. And last night we got an email from our meezer furiend Nellie and her mommy, awnty Barb. Every year they make a big ole punkin patch and carve names into punkins. We have one dat everypawdy can see on our sidebar. It says Dezi and Lexi, and we luv it. But sis Lexi’s gone now and Nellie, bein’ da sweety she is, made us a new punkin. This one has your name on it too. Lookit, Dezi and RaenaBelle it says. Wasn’t dat nice of them to do dat fur us?

 Dezi and RAenas' pumpkin patch pumpkin from Nellie

 

       It sure was sissy. I’s luvs our new punkin. Fank you Nellie fur includin’ me in your punkin’ patch. This is mines furst ever, well anythin’, so I’s learnin’ all kinds of things.

Yeah Raena, you are learnin’ all kinds of things alright. Y, you’ve learned to turn all our ‘lectric toys on and da wheelchair too. Mommy said dat after you have your spa day she’s gonna start trainin’ you to drive da wheelchair.

 

       Well it’s ‘bout time sissy. I’s can’t wait. Did you see me drive da chair into da counter da other day?

No Raena me missed dat. But me did hear mommy hollerin’ fur you to stop and to turn da chair back off. Me thinks it’s funny dat you can turn everythin’ on, but when it comes time to turn things off again you purrtend to be clueless.  

       But sissy, none of those things are any fun when they’re turned off.

Raena, not every minute of every day has to be ‘bout havin’ fun. There’s also nap time, meal time and time fur luvvin’ from mommy.

 Raena getting mommy love while laying in her lap

       Yeah Dezi, dat last one’s mines favorite.

Me too Raena, me too. Speakin’ of mommy luvvin’, let’s wrap this up and go get some. We’ll post a selfie or two so we can join da Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies and remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur da blessings in their lives. We are blest to have a luvvin’ mommy, a home, all our furiends and live in da greatest Country ever, America. We purray you all have a pawsum day.

Blest Sunday Remember the Rescues

Published on by Service Cats U.S.37 Comments

Meowllo and welcome to chaplain Dezi’s Blest Sunday. So we did some more meowin’ and talkin’ this week and decided dat Wednesdays and Furidays are just gonna stay Surprise/Toss up days. You’re not gonna know what you’ll see here till ya’ come by. MOL  Anyways, let’s get on with today. Furst we wanna thank whoever sent mommy da colorin’ page. She luvved it. Raena and me think she must have used every color they make fur dat kitty face. It stormed and raged all day yesfurday and was da purrfect thing to keep mommys’ mind busy since we couldn’t be on da catputer. Da thunder boomers seemed to get louder and more furequent last night, but me never hid out. Me did want a lot of extra luvvin’ from mommy, which she was more than happy to give. Me is so blest to have such a luvvin’ mommy.

 Dezi sits on bench

 Mommy said Fank you fur da colorin’ page.

 

       Me too sissy. I’s not ‘fraid of da storms but they was sooooo loud last night dat even I’s got a little nervous. Even da rain seemed louder than normal. Fankfully mommy has room fur both of us on her lap. 

Oh Raena, what do you know ‘bout normal soundin’ rain? You’ve only been alive fur 5 months.

 Raena sitting in mommys lap

       Maybe sissy, but it’s rained a lot durin’ those 5 months.

You’re right Raena, it has rained a lot this summer. And now they say it’s fall. We even got a cold front move in this weekend. Not dat we felt it in da house. Fank catness fur air conditionin’ and fans. We wanted to show you a foto dat made mommy burst out laffin’. It’s blurry and da red eye taker outer didn’t take out all da red eye like it’s posed to, but we think most of ya’ will get a real chuckle lookin’ at it. Raena and me had been in da pawdee box room playin’ when we suddenly heard a sonic boom. Those happen a lot ‘round here, but we all still jump a little. Yep, even mommy. Anyways, Raena and me heard da sonic boom and well it caused us to immediately stop playin’ and meow out to mommy. Mommy knew we were together and so when we both called out to her, she got “nervous” and jumped up to come see what was goin’ on. And this foto shows what she saw when she got to da hallway. Fankfully she has long arms and could reach da camera, cuz once she appeared in da hallway and stopped, we came runnin’.

 Dezi and Raena sitting outside bathroom looking surprised.

       Well sissy she was laffin’ at us. I’s didn’t know what was so funny, but she laffed till she had water streamin’ down her face.

Yeah Raena, mommies can be emotional, specially ours.

 Raena sleeping in mommys lap

       Is dat why she luvs us so much sissy, cuz she’s emotional?

No Raena she luvs us just cuz. And cuz she’s emotional she shows us how much she luvs us all da time. We are really blest kitties to have a furever home and furever mommy dat luvs us so much. We have lots of amazin’ furiends dat we share our lives with and so much more. You know not all kitties have dat. This past week there was a day set aside to ‘member all those dat never make it outta shelters and into luvvin’ furever homes. They die never havin’ known luv and da warmth of a mommy or daddy holdin’ them tight and purromissin’ them dat they’ll never be alone again.

       Oh sissy, I’s not like to think ‘bout those things.

Yeah Raena, a lot of peeps don’t like to think ‘bout those kinds of things. But not thinkin’ ‘bout it doesn’t make it go away. Until we get everypawdy to think ‘bout it and make changes, kitties and doggies will continue to die scared and alone. We try to educate as many peeps as we can. And every day we purray fur all our furiends and all those less furtunate than us. And hopefully someday we won’t need shelters. Maybe someday, all anipals will have their own luvvin’ furever.

 Raena sleeping in mommys lap

       I’s sure hope so sissy. I’s think #RemeberMeThursday should be everyday till da whole world gets da message.

Yeah Raena me wishes da world would get da message too. Spay and neuter your pets, strays and feral colonies to help cut down on over-pawpulation and over crowded shelters. Children can witness the magic of birth by rentin’ a video. Educate, educate, educate. Havin’ babies doesn’t make a kitty calmer, more well adjusted or happier. Instead it increases da risk of health issues, cancers, spraying, behavioral purroblems and early deaths. We get so tired of hearin’ “I already have homes for the kittens.” Well ifin you don’t spay or neuter, da homes you found purrobably don’t either and someday those kittens will be havin’ babies too. And on and on and on. (Dezi wipes a tear from her eye and shakes and bows her head for a moment of silence) Well we better get outta here befur it starts stormin’ again.

 Dezi lays in lap and takes a selfie

We’s joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. ‘Member to take a minute today and everyday to give thanks fur da blessings in your life. Fank you all fur your luv and support. We are so blest to know all of you. Hope you have a pawsumly blest day.

Blest Sunday Thank Yous

Published on by Service Cats U.S.42 Comments

Meowllo and welcome to a brand new Blest Sunday. As you all know this is our favorite posty of da week. It’s da time we recount any blessings from da past week and tell you all how very lucky and blest we are to have you as pawrt of our lives. We think any oppurrtunity to give thanks and say I luv you should never be passed up. Life is so short, and we don’t wanna waste a minute of it. So, let’s get to our furst blessing of da week.

 Dezi in a frame surrounded by blue flower petals

As you know, cuz we told ya’, sis Raena wasn’t eatin’. Now kitties really shouldn’t go without eatin’ in general, but fur sure a growin’ kitty needs every meal to grow healthy and strong. Mommy does everythin’ she can to purrvide us with da bestest pawssible food, thus it’s quite ‘spensive. Once our noms ship out from Chewy, there’s no more money fur anythin’ else. So ifin we turn up our noses at da food dat arrives, we’re in somethin’ of a pickle. Well, dat’s ‘zactly what happened this month. Sis Raena tried to bury every plate in da house. She just didn’t wanna eat anythin’ mommy offered her. Of course mommy began to say her “eat” purrayers and Raena asked you all fur some purrayers. And voila, Furiday saw answered purrayers when Raena ate her plate of food and half of me’s plate and asked fur more. WooHoo  Keep those purrayers comin’ cuz Raena seems ‘bout as fickle as dat pickle.

 

 

       Sissy, don’t furget to tell everypawdy ‘bout mines spa day.

 

 

Well Raena, since you so rudely innerrupted, why don’t you tell them ‘bout your spa day. (Dezi thinks back to her spa day and shivers) 

 Raena in a frame with blue flowers

      

       Fank ya’ sissy, I’s will. Two pawsumly Anonymous awnties donated to our PayPal fur mines spa day, so it’s fur sure gonna happen on October da 8th. I’s told mommy to be sure and put a reminder on da calendar fur dat day and to ‘member to take da camera. She says I’s might not want mines foto taken dat day, but I’s can’t ‘magine ever not wantin’ mines foto taken. I’s luvs da camera and mommy says da camera luvs me. Anyways, I’s gotten a little side tracked here. I’s wanna fank you awnties Anonymous fur makin’ sure I get mines spa day. 

 

Me’s glad you’re gettin’ your spa day Raena. And yes, a meowsy big Fank you to our awnties Anonymous. There’s even enuff to get Raena a special treat dat day. As always, we are so grateful to have all of you as our furiends and furamily. We luv you all and purray God’s blessings on each of you. Me’s gonna wrap it up now and head on over to da cat tree fur a mid meownin’ nap.

       Don’t furget Sunday Selfies with da Kitties Blue, Sissy.

 Dezi l;ays in lap and sleeps

Me didn’t furget Raena, but since you’ve already said it, let’s wish everypawdy a pawsumly blest Sunday and go take a nap.

 

 

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

A Muddy Blest Sunday

Published on by Service Cats U.S.36 Comments

Welcome to a new Blest Sunday. We thought we saw da sun come out fur a minute, but it was just some workers’ flashlights. Da “landscapers” lawn crew was here this past week buildin’ up a hill ‘tween our pawrtment and mr. W’s. Guess me needs to ‘splain a bit fur those of ya’ dat be new to our bloggy. We live in these ‘pawrtments dat be much like a horseshoe shape. Mr. W lives on da end of a buildin’ next to da road. We live in da buildin’ right behind it dat faces in towards our pawrkin’ lot. Bedrooms are at da back of da ‘pawrtment and livin’ rooms at da front. Hims bedroom is almost our livin’ room window view. Not somethin’ we wanna see. Dat’s da only good thing ‘bout those big ole oak trees in our yard. Cuz No, he doesn’t have curtains and Yes, he leaves da blinds up all da time.

 Dezi in a frame with purple tulips

Anyways, fur whatever reason, there was a drop off behind hims ‘pawrtment. It was purretty steep, but it’s not like any of us are really out there walkin’ it. Altho’ Mr. W has been known to wheel hims wheelchair ‘round there on da occasions when Buddy escapes. So anyways, ‘member when we said da manager had come down one meownin’ wantin’ mommy to move her car? Well dat’s why. Da lawn crew was gonna be doin’ some work and to purrtect our cars, she wanted us to move them. Altho’ not sure where she wanted us to move them cuz they had trucks, dirt and equipment all over da place. Well, dat was da day dat mommy had to go to da doctor so mommy did move our car fur a few hours at least. Mommy furinally said, well they have to have insurance, so we’ll just have to take our chances. And then she watched them like a hawk.

Raena in a purple heart blooming from a red rose surrounded by blue

Now, fur all of ya’ wonderin’ why it’s such a big deal, let me tell ya’. This very same lawn crew breaks at least 3 ‘pawrtment air conditioners every summer. Dat’s basically one a month. “course dat’s not countin’ da ones dat they just chew up da wirin’ on with da weed whacker by runnin’ it up da side of da walls. And no, there ain’t no weeds up da wall. They’re just idiots. Anyways, they ran over da 6 foot steel post dat marked da sprinkler system, and broke it and caused a huge flood. We haven’t had a sprinkler system out here in over 10 years cuz of them. Once da flood was stopped, da big steel post was replaced and a circle of bricks ’round it. And yep, they ran over it again. They chopped down several ornamental bushes and left da weeds. And many more things. Don’t ask. We don’t know why they’re still da lawn crew fur our purropurrty and several others managed by the same management company. Anyways, they built up this hill and tamped down lots of new dirt and left. Mommy looked out and said, “Lovely, just wait till it rains.” And then…well as you know it’s been rainin’ ever since. MOL

And yes, we have new mud every where now. And dat’s why there were workers with flashlights walkin’ ‘round makin’ us think da sun was tryin’ to peek out from da clouds.Even amidst all of this, we’ve been blest. Me hasn’t run or hid from da thunder boomers once. And Raena’s eye got all better. Da lawn crew didn’t even touch our car. We have a home to be safe from da weather, includin’ da earthquake we had last weekend. And most of all we have each other and all of you. We are Blest!!! ‘Member to take a minute today and everyday to give thanks fur da blessings in your lives. We’s joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. And be sure and stop by tomorrow, we’ve got some great trainin’ tips comin’ up in our weekly Service Cats posty.

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