Giving Thanks

Are you ready? Thanksgiving is here and that means there’s less than 30 days till Christmas. Can you believe it? Seems just like yesfurday we were celebratin’ da summer holidays. But summer has come and gone and winter is on it’s way. Some of ya’ awe already getting’ snow and cold. Weez sendin’ y’all and all da ferals in your area our purrayers. It did turn cold here fur a few days but it’s warmed up a bit again. Weez kinda glad mommy hadn’t taken out da lectric blanket, cuz today weez sweatin’. MOL  It was so warm this meownin’ me took a break from brekky to lay in da bath tub a bit. But just as quick as it warmed up it’ll turn cold again. We don’t like da cold but we do like da extra cuddles and snugglin’ dat come with it.

We got da cutest Thanksgivin’ card yesfurday from one of me fellow scouts, Pete and hims furmily. Cat Scouts go to work at this time of year spreadin’ holiday cheer to those who might not otherwise have any. Now dat’s not to say dat scouts aren’t busy all year round cuz they are. Those of us scouts dat blog usually post all our fun virtual trips and parties. And cuz of dat a lot of ya’ may be thinkin’ dat scouts is just a big party. But you wuld be wrong. Scouts is a learnin’ adventure and a community helper. There are projects all year round dat scouts can purrticipate in and bring joy to those less furtunate. Weez there fur each other and try to help each other durin’ times of sads and trubble. We have a quiet room where we post all our purrayer requests and other scouts rally to purray. Meez recently been named da Scout Chaplain. Me is so honored and hopes dat me can be da Chaplain dat every scout needs. So yes, we do have a lot of fun, but ifin you’re lookin’ to grow and be da best kitty you can be, think about joinin’ up. Just click da link in red to be transported to scouts.

Giving Thanks 

 

We’re thankful for the air we breathe,

   The wind that blows thru the leaves.

The sun that shines in the sky up high,

   The darkness that covers the world at night.

The freedoms granted by God above,

   And for His mercy, grace and love.

We’re thankful for our loving home,

   our mommy, each other, that we’re not alone.

We’re thankful for you and you,

   all our friends and family too.

Today and everyday we’ll share with you

   All our love and gratitude.

Sun Puddle Sweet Sun Puddle

Da sun was shinin’ thru da clouds when we woke up this meownin’ It was a glorious sight. Weez had rain and gloomy skies fur da longest time now. Me didn’t think da sun was ever gunna shine again. But here it is. Cuz of da gloomy weather we haven’t really had much goin’ on here. Me is much calmer durin’ da storms now, so we have been purrlayin’ and workin’ on all da stress relievin’ stuffs we told you ‘bout last week. Ifin you missed our de-stressin’ post you can read it here.

Mommy’s case manager was here yesfurday to recertify her fur another year. She’s posed to have sumone who comes out and helps clean da house, run errands, and dat sort of fing. But da peeps in our area don’t wanna work cuz parently they can make more money on welfare. We live in a very small rural community and peeps from da bigger town don’t wanna drive all da way out here, or can’t afford too. There’s been a kupple times da agencies did find sumpawdy but there was purrsonality conflicts or they didn’t like cats. One girly was lergic to cats and when she showed up to work and me came out to check her out, she ran outta da house scweamin’. (shakes head) So ridiculous. Anyways, Oklahoma has finally adopted a purrogram dat wuld allow mommy to have control over who gets hired and how much money they get paid (within’ da State limits of course). Weez really ‘cited ‘bout this and hope to be able to find sumpawdy soon. You know Lexi and me can’t work da carpet monster, washin’ machine or mop. Thank Catness. MOL

Wanna Play Mr. Hedgehog?

Wanna play? Mr. Hedgehog, did you hear me? Me asked ifin you wanted to play?

Dezi sniffing Imperial Cat hedgehog

Oh sure girls, I’m up for some play. Why don’t you have your mom put some of that cat nip you like so much inside my refillable body.

Dat’s right a completely refillable with furesh cat nip fuzzy toy fur us kitties to play with. We have lots of toys from Imperial Cat so when they asked ifin we wuld like to bring you all one of their newest in the Cat’n Around™ line we just had to say, “count us in”. How many pawsum toys have your cats quit playin’ with after the nip has gotten old or been soaked with slobber so many times it’s just not furesh anymore. Trust me, we know all ‘bout dat slobberin’ since sis Lexi dusn’t have hardly any teeth. Anyways, unlike mats, nip filled toys can’t really be cleaned. So what do you do with ‘em when they’re no longer any fun? They either go into da bottom of da toy box or in da trash right? Or what ifin your kitty purrfurs silvervine stead of nip? Toys filled with da vine are really hard to find. Well what wuld you say ifin you kuld empty out da old stale nip and add furesh or whatever you wanted inside; essentially makin’ da toy new again? You’d say count you in too, huh?.

dw-ImperialCat

Well dat’s zactly what Imperial Cat did. They created a line of refillable catnip toys. There’s a Fuzzy Heart Duo, a completely stuffin’ furee toy dat comes with 2 fuzzy heart pillows, the Snake duo which comes in assorted colors and our furiend da Feather Hedgehog duo. Each of these toys comes with an ample bag of certified organic USA grown catnip. Da only stuffin’ on these toys is in their heads. Each toy has a velcro closure in da tummy area where you can add as much or as little nip or whatever your cat purrfurs. Stuff them full or just enuff fur a whiff. Da suggested retail of these pawsum little duos is $5.96.

So, what do we think of Mr. Hedgehog? As you know we always tell it like it is. Me seemed very innerested when mommy was strugglin’ with da little velcro openin’ to fill him up, but he turned out not be as much fun as da escaping nip cuz da velcro dusn’t hold well. Sis Lexi however thought he was great fun. She batted him around fur a good little while. And has returned numerous times fur a bit more battin’. MOL  Mr. Hedgehog is quite cute and his spikes seem to be made of microfiber so he is nice and soft. He has a tiny little pink ball glued on fur a nose, so fur any kitties dat like to chew on and/or eat their toys, we recommend removin’ da nose afur givin’ him to kitty to avoid pawssible chokin’ hazards, etc. We’re not those kitties, so our Mr. Hedgehogs’ nose is still in tact. All in all sissy gives him 4 paws up. And fur all da pawsum nip on da floor me rolled in, me gives him 2 paws up.

dw-Lexilikeshedgehog5

As usual we’ll let mommy weigh in on this too. We know you’re all innerested in knowin’ what her thoughts were. She wishes da velcro closure worked a bit better and wasn’t quite as stiff cuz she hadn’t planned on bringin’ out da carpet monster da day she gave us Mr. hedgehog. But with all dat nip all over da floor, it was sumfin’ dat had to be done. But mommy recognizes a gweat idea and so fur dat she gives it a thumb up too. And it’s highly pawssible dat da enclosure works better on da snake and hearts. We didn’t try those so we can’t say. What we can say is dat these wuld make a gweat Christmas purresent, stockin’ stuffer, or just cuz I luv ya’ gift. Mr. Hedgehog is a great toy with or without da nip. And at a purrice unner $6.00 fur 2 toys, you just have to get yours.

 

But WAIT

Blest Sunday – Vive la France

It’s Blest Sunday again, and the world has been hit with tragedy. While we were dealing with storms and worrying ‘bout not bein’ able to get on da catputer to have fun, France was reelin’ from da terrorist attacks dat stole da lives of so many. Our deepest sympathy’s go out to all of France. You are in our purrayers. This world and all dat’s in it are a gweat blessing from God. And a small portion of da worlds pawpulation wants to stamp out freedom from any who don’t believe da way they do. We just celebrated Veteran’s day. A day dat honors all those who fight to keep us safe. But what do we do when da death and destruction of a war are brought to our streets where the innocent and untrained are just goin’ about their lives?

 

Dezi inside a Red abstract rose

We join so many others in our sadness over da tactics dat took so much from so many. We purray and ask God to keep you all safe and dat sumday this world will know Peace. Vive la France and God Bless America.
