Blest Sunday: Blogger Recognition Award

Hey, is anypawdy out there? Guess who? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Yep, with sis Dezi off at Cat Scout summer camp havin’ all the fun, I’s here hangin’ with mommy and takin’ over Blest Sunday. I’s might not get to be a Cat Scout, but hey, I’s still queen of our castle. MOL  Okay, so maybe I’s not takin’ over, cuz sissy didn’t really go anywhere. As ya’ll know, we’re all ‘bout the truth. But, we do like bein’ pawrt of the community, and purrticipatin’ in events that we might only do virtually. And Cat Scouts is one of those.

          It sure is Raena. We were so blest years ago to find Cat Scouts. It’s a small community, but a community that cares ‘bout it’s members and others. Me’s made such amazin’ furiends there. Some of those furiends are pawrt of blogville as fellow bloggers and some aren’t. Ya’ know, bloggin’ isn’t fur everypawdy, but a cat luvver is a cat luvver and enjoys sharin’ fotos of their gawjus kitties and spendin’ time with other cat peeps. And, Cat Scouts is just one of the places one can do that. 

 

 Blogger Recognition Award Badge

 

And one day, I’s gonna get to be a Cat Scout too. In the meantime, I’s wanna fanky fank the peeps and kitties of Kittyclysm. A while back they gave us the Blogger Recognition Award. Here’s the rules:

 

  • Thank the blogger who nominated you and provide a link to their blog

  • Write a post to show your award

  • Give a brief story of how your blog started

  • Give two pieces of advice to new bloggers

  • Select 15 other bloggers you want to give this award to

  • Comment on each blog and let them know you have nominated them and provide the link to the post you created.

          And since our bloggy is called DezizWorld, me will tell you how we started. Befur Cat Scouts, there was another site fur cat luvvers to get together and show off fotos of their amazin’ kitties. While there, we met Timmy and Buddy of Tomcat Commentary and Blues Lounge. One day they asked ifin any cat would like to be a guest blogger fur them and me jumped at the chance. After all, sis Lexi had her facebook page, so me wanted to do somethin’ on me’s own too. They told us all we needed to do was create an account on WordPress. Well, me couldn’t get to that fast enuff. But with mommy’s limited knowledge of catputers and stuffs, befur we knew it, we had our very own bloggy. Okay, so it might have taken mommy a whole 24 hours to get all set up, but all she did was follow the instructions on the screen. She had no idea, we were creating our own bloggy. But we did. And we’ve been here ever since. And ya know what? We’ve never looked back. Our accidental bloggy has been the source of great furiendships and adventures.

          As fur advice to new bloggers, we would tell you, above all…be truthful…even when it hurts. You can never go wrong with the truth. And, have fun. Whether you have a thousand visitors or 1, bloggin’ is a great way to chronicle the life/lives of your fur baby/ies.

 

 Raena lays on floor

 

Y, Sissy, that’s great advice. Altho’ I’s not been bloggin’ as long as you have, I’s luvs every minute. I’s enjoy visitin’ our furiends and keepin’ up with what they’re doin’. I’s would say another ‘purrtant thing fur new bloggers to keep in mind, is visitin’ others. And, don’t give in to the purressure of writin’ what everypawdy else does. Be true to yourself. Find your voice and stick with it. No blog is fur everypawdy, but ifin you put yourself out there, you will find furiends.

          That’s great advice Raena. Me’s actually purroud of ya’. Now, we’re also s’posed to nominate 15 other bloggers fur the award. The truth is, there are lots of amazin’ blogs out there and we think they all deserve the Recognition award, but we just can’t list them all. So we’re only gonna list a few. But, all of you feel furee to take this award, cuz you deserve it. 

1. Momma Cat and her Bear Cat 

2. The Canadian Cats 

3. Noir Kitty Mews

 

Those are some great nominees sissy.

Blest Sunday: We’ve Missed You & We’re Back

Hey Raena, come on, it’s time fur our Blest Sunday posty.

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

          Are you sure sissy? You know, mommy’s been confused ‘bout what day it is fur the last few days now. Kind’a like we get on the silvervine we had the other day.

 

 

 Dezi with silvervine on cat tree

 

Yeah, me knows, Raena. But, mommy checked all the things she normally does when she passes out and it’s fur sure Blest Sunday. Now, hurry, we don’t wanna miss church. 

 

 Raena with silvervine on cat tree

 

          I’s comin’ sissy. Ya’ know, I’s really missed all our catputer time and visitin’ with our furiends these last couple of weeks, but, I’s gotta tell ya’ spendin’ extra time with mommy has been great. 

 

 Dezi with silvervine on the cat tree

 

Me knows what ya’ mean Raena. Ya’ know, one might think that since mommy’s home all the time, we get lots of time to ourselves to play with her. But that just ain’t true. There’s the catputer time of writin’ and researchin’ fur our postys, helpin’ us visit our furiends, doin’ the regular every day cleanin’ that one has to do to keep from livin’ in a pig sty. Not that there’s anythin’ wrong with livin’ in a pig sty…ifin you’re a pig; but ya’ know, us kitties like things a bit more tidy. And there’s the business stuffs that seems never endin’, and of course there’s the passin’ out time, that mommy spends unconscious every day. So, it really isn’t play time all day, every day. 

 

 Raena with silvervine on cat tree

 

          So true, sissy. But, all in all, we are very blest to have the lives we have. Even with all those things happenin’, mommy still makes time to spend with us and with each of us by ourselves each day. Still, it has been fun these last couple of weeks.

 

 Dezi with silvervine on the cat tree

 

Yep, sure ‘nuff. But, mommy has purromissed that startin’ this week, we’re gonna get back to business as usual. We wanna fank all our amazin’ furiends fur their luv, suppurrt and patience while mommy’s been goin’ thru all this dental stuffs. It was a little more traumatic than mommy had originally anticipated, and she’s not 100% yet. But, she is doin’ well and getting’ better every day. She’s back on the smashed tater diet, with some added cheese fur much needed protein to stay strong. Mommy even said she doesn’t mind the taters so much, she just can’t wait fur the day when she can actually bite and chew somethin’ again. And she’s even purromissed fotos, once she’s healed and all the swellin’ has gone down.

 

 Raena with silvervine on cat tree

 

          Now that’s somethin’, sissy. We all know how rare fotos of mommy are. She luvs pointin’ the flashy box at us, but herself? That’s another matter all together. MOL  I’s gonna be happy to get back to visitin’ all our furiends tho’. I’s sure hope we haven’t missed too much. We are blest to have the bestest furiends ever. We better wrap this up, church is ‘bout to start.

 

 Raena with silvervine on cat tree

 

You’re right Raena. Furst, we wanna remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. Ya’ know when ya’ start your day with a smile and a fanks, the whole day goes a little bit better. And, even tho’ we don’t really do selfies, we’re joinin’ the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. We hope you enjoyed our day with the silvervine, we sure did. MOL  Me’s gotta go now. We’ll see you all soon.

 

Till the next time……………………………………Be Blest!!!

Blest Sunday: We’re Still Here & Still Blest

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle.

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

          Raena, what are you meowin’ ‘bout now? 

 

 Dezi and Raena hang out together during the fireworks

 

I’s was just seein’ ifin anypawdy ‘membered us. Here we had the pawrty of the century planned, and then we went and fell off the face of the earth.

 

 Dezi lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

          Purrrrrrrlease Raena. We didn’t fall off the face of the earth. And, our furiends knew mommy was headin’ to the dentist and without her, we can’t work the catputer. 

 

 

 

Yeah sissy, what’s up with that anyways? Who knew ya’ needed a password just turn it on? And, why wouldn’t mommy use at least one of our names as said password? It’s like she wants to make sure we can’t have any fun without her. 

 

          Now Raena, you know we have lots of toys and fun without the catputer. Y, We’ve even had a little fun the last few days tryin’ to make out what mommy’s sayin’? 

 

 Raena lays on floor looking at toys

Okay, maybe we do have lots of fun toys.

 

 

Now that’s the truth sissy. She fur sure hasn’t sounded like our mommy.

 

          She’ll get better tho’, Raena. But we should let everypawdy know how things went. and we’ve got a few peeps to fank too.

 

 Raena looks at mommy from stroller

You’ll just have to enjoy seein’ this foto of me. Mommy didn’t

take da camera to her ‘pointment. But this is a great selfie, don’ch’a think?

 

 

Well, let me meow ‘bout the ‘pointment sissy. Mommy was a little nervous all meownin’ long, but she kept sayin’ that once it was all over, she’d feel much better. Hmmmpht  Anyways, when we got there, they called us right back. The assistant was the same girly that had taken mommy’s impurrsions, so at least she was furmiliar. The dentist on the other hand…yep, mommy had another new dentist, Dr. Ryan. He was an older man, 3rd generation dentist, and gentle as a teddy bear. He was really nice, even tho’ he did make mommy cry a few times. He kept stickin’ mommy with a needle and then he grabbed some funky lookin’ pliers and started pullin’ out her teethies. One at a time till they were gone. I’s could tell mommy was hurtin’ cuz her whole body was shakin’ and puddles of water were fallin’ from her eyes. But, mommy never said a word and Dr. Ryan said mommy was the bestest patient he’d had in years. Then, he got a needle and thread and sewed mommy’s mouth together.

 

          He didn’t sew her mouth together Raena. He just sewed all the holes he just made shut.

 

 Raena lays in mommy's lap

 

Whatever sissy. Anyways, the assistant girly then put these fake teethies in mommy’s mouth and told her stuffs ‘bout comin’ in fur soft alignments and one final hard alignment in 6 months. Like we had a clue what she was talkin’ ‘bout. And then, when we were leavin’, Dr. Ryan gave mommy a big ole teddy bear hug and said he’d be purrayin’ fur her. And yes, mommy started cryin’ all over again. We stopped at the Wally world to get mommy’s antibiotics and some Malt O Meal and headed home. Seems mommy had 4 more teethies in her sinuses and 3 of the lower ones were embedded in a nerve. So, mommy has a sinus headache on top of her regular migraine, and besides her face and neck bein’ all swollen, part of her face is a little numb still. Dr. Ryan, said it’d take a week or two fur her face and neck to shrink back to normal size and the feelin’ should return in a few days to a week. Seems nopawdy told mommy just how much pain and discomfurt she would have durin’ this healin’ purrocess. 

 

 Dezi gets loving while laying on the arm of chair-selfie

Me’s takin’ great care of mommy.

 

 

          Yeah, and since her migraines mess with her vision, we haven’t been on the catputer very much. And, the pain and feelin’ of the fake teethies have made it a little difficult fur mommy to eat even the Malt O Meal, so we’ve all been nappin’ a lot. But, most ‘purrtantly, mommy says, this is all tempurrary and shall pass. And, when it does, she’s gonna feel sooooooo much better. So, we wanna say a meowsy big fank you to all those who helped to make this pawssible. Fank you awnty Kathleen, awnty Carol, awnty Theresa, awnty Kat, awnty Suzanne and LouLou, the sweetest Tuxie Princess Erin and her peep, awnty Kerry and Valentine, awnty Vonda, awnty Anonymous, awnty Claire, Zorro and Pixie (The Swiss Cats), awnty Petal, awnty Debbie, Katie and Waffles (Glogirly), Our sweet furiends Amarula, Frodo and Zulu from Hairballs and Hissyfits, awnty Jullea, awnty Gretel, awnty Cindy, awnty Julie and all our Anonymous Angels. We wanna say fanks to uncle Pete, Timmy and the gang fur helpin’ to calm mommy’s nerves. Ya’ brought her back from the edge Fursday so she could make her ‘pointment. And, we wanna fank you all fur the purrayers and well wishes. Keep those purrayers comin’ ifin ya’ don’t mind.

  

 Raena lays on nip mat on Liberty cat tree

 

Oh sissy, we are so very blest. Not only do we have the mostest wonderful mommy in the universe, we have the greatest furiends in any universe. Even mommy, who can’t talk so good right now, agrees, that we are most assuredly blest. And she wanted to ‘pawlogize to us and everypawdy fur our absence. Unfurtunately, she needs a couple more days to get sorted out, so our big pawrty is still on, just postponed a bit.

 

 Dezi lays atop the Liberty cat tree

 

          Yep Raena, that’s the mommy we know and luv. We will always find the blessing, the rose bud among the thorns. And, we wanna remind all of you to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your life. 

 

We’re also gonna join up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. C’mon sissy, let’s go give mommy a massage and have a little nap.

Blest Sunday: Party Planning & Play Date Chit Chat

MeOW  Another week has passed and it’s time fur a purrfectly Blest Sunday. We are so behind in our visitin’ that it ain’t even funny. ‘Tween doctors’ pointments, lease re-certification stuffs and gettin’ ready fur mommy’s dental ‘pointment, there’s been little time fur the catputer. Mommy has purromissed us that all this extra stuffs is almost over and we’ll be back to normal real soon. 

 

 Dezi and Raena lay together on the floor

 

          I’s’ll sure be glad to get mommy back sissy. Even our play time has been shortened cuz of all the extra stuffs goin’ on right now. You know, we haven’t even gone strollin’ lately?. 

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

Well Raena, it’s been a little hot to go strollin’ just cuz. It’s furinally summer, and swelterin’ hot outside. We’re really blest to be inside unner the air conditioner.

 

 Raena sits pretty at the edge of the kitchen

Come on mommy, just a little stroll?

 

 

          You’re right ‘bout that sissy. Even with the air conditioner runnin’ and a couple of fans, mommy’s been complainin’ ‘bout the heat and somethin’ she calls her own purrsonal summers. What are those anyways?

 

Don’t ask me, Raena. What would me know ‘bout purrsonal summers. Mommy’s been complainin’ ‘bout those fur years. Even in the middle of the winter, mommy talks ‘bout those purrsonal summers. It’s purrobably just another human expression fur nonsense. You know humans and their sayings; they’ve got one fur just ‘bout everythin’.

 

 Sunshine with shades animated emoji

 

          They sure do, don’t they sissy?. Y, Just the other day you and me were meowin’ and playin’ in the back and mommy hollered somethin’ ‘bout us caterwaulin’. And then, you used your low meow that mommy doesn’t hear very offen and she came runnin’ to see what was goin’ on. 

 

 Dezi sits on the bathroom counter

 

Fur a second Raena, me thought she had done gone and brought home another kitty. There me was, sittin’ on the bathroom vanity when all of a sudden me caught sight of somethin’ outta the corner of me’s eye. Another kitty sittin’ there on the vanity right beside me. You were layin’ on the shower chair so me knew it wasn’t you. Me tried to ignore it, but it started to mimic everythin’ me did. Me got really close so me could give it a smell. It touched me’s nose, but there was nuffin’. No smell at all. So, me had to find out from mommy just what was goin’ on. One pain in me’s hiney sisfur is purrlenty. Me never agreed to 2!!!

 

          Pain in your hiney?! I’s thought you luvved me sissy. You said you did. 

 

Dezi lays on bathroom vanity

Me does Raena. But you can still be a pain sometimes. Fankfully, mommy said that extra kitty on the vanity was just all me’s beauty reflectin’ off of me. MeOW  That was a close one. Me sure is blest to have a mommy that keeps her word. 

 

 

 Raena lays on the shower chair

 

          I’s don’t know sissy. another kitty to play with might not be such a bad thing. Altho’ I’s do agree, we are very blest kitties to have such a luvvin’ mommy.

 

 Dezi and Raena play with the Tower of Tracks

 

Me plays with you Raena. Just cuz you don’t ever get tired, isn’t reason enuff to have to share everythin’ with yet another kitty. Besides, we’re blest with lots of furiends. We should schedule another play date sometime. Me has a feelin’ mommy’s not gonna be up to much this week since she has her dental ‘pointment to remove the remainin’ bad teethies and get those dentures she’s been talkin’ ‘bout. So, why don’t we have a few furiends over fur a play date pawrty. 

 

          Really sissy? I’s would luvs that. Are you gonna chaperone? You know mommy won’t be able too, and there’s no way she’ll let us have company ifin you’re not in charge.

 

 Dezi and Raena on the Liberty Cat Tree

 

Yes Raena, me will chaperone. We fur sure oughtta invite our sweet tuxie furiend, Erin the cat princess. We may not have any real mouseys ‘round here fur her but we can get purrlenty of cream. And yes, we can invite Simon, Timmy and his furmily, and… 

 

          Hey sissy!!! Valentine just got a new stroller. I’s bet he’d be up fur a play date party too. Maybe he could even stroll on over. We don’t know when Marv is scheduled to arrive at awnty Barb’s place, but maybe angel Nellie could fly in. Kittens  There’s just too many furiends to name all of ‘em. You’re are so right sissy. We are so blest to have so many pawsum furiends. A meowsy big fanky fanks to all of you.

 

 Top 30 Independant Cat Bloggers badge

 

Yep Raena, we are blest. Everywhere we look is a blessing. We were contacted by Dan and his amazin’ kitty Whiskey. They were puttin’ together a list of the top independent cat bloggers and wanted to include us. You can check out their list here. We feel blest to be included. There’s some really great blogs listed. We’d like to remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the many blessings in your lives. 

 

 Raena scowls at the camera while laying on the floor

This is mine’s collar bell selfie fur the week.

 

 

          Don’t furget Sunday Selfies with the Kitties Blue, sissy. We may not take actual selfies, but mommy does luv those close-ups. We better start cleanin’ up and maybe get mommy to plant up some cat grass fur our play date pawrty. I’s invitin’ all of you. It’s gonna be a celebration of furiends in honor of mommy gettin’ rid of all those painful teethies and all the blessings the good Lord gave us.
