Hey weez wanna wemind yous dat ow latest awticle weez wrote fur da Daily Mews is out now and it’s a weally purrtant one ‘bout da Soft paws. Yous can read it by clicking here. And member yous can subscwibe to da mewsletter fur fwee and nevew miss an awticle again. There’s a little sumfin’ fur evewyone there. And wight now there be a contest goin’ on yous all might wanna check out here. It’s all ‘bout da holidays which awe fast approachin’.
Weez also want to continue to fank Savannah and hers mommy Ms. Linda fur sponsowin’ a fundwaiser to help us get a purropurr chair fur mommy so hers can get off da floor and a new dwy mattwess and sum steps fur sis Lexi (and me, cuz yous know meez gunna use ‘em too). Weez can’t fank yous all enuff. Weez wanna fank da *Concerned Cats fur their donation, it is weally purreciated. Ifin yous wuld like to check it out yous can do so here. As yous know ow pawtment wuz flooded not once but twice in less than a mumff and as a wesult, sum of ow stuffs got damaged or in da case of mommys chair, it just bwoke all to pieces. Weez purreciate all da donations dat hav been given wegardless of da amount, they ALL help get us closer to da goal.
Weez wuld like to addwess sum of your suggestions, as they awe purreciated. A lot of yous hav mentioned weez kuld use boxes to help sis Lexi climb. And weez do when we can, but weez hav mumffly pawtment inspections and get in twubble fur havin’ boxes sittin’ wound. They awe considered a fire hazard and bug motel. And of course weez still hav da same purrawllem weez had wiff da cheap steps mommy had owiginally bought. We awe BIG girlys weighing in at 30 pounds EACH. Dat be 60 pounds of kitties. And when weez do zoomies and take a flying leap at da steps (boxes, etc.) yous hav to add 10-15 pounds to each of our weights due to inertia. Sis Lexi has needed help fur a foo years now, so mommy has twied evewyfin’ hers kuld fink of or find as an option, but da solution weally is good solid heavy duty steps. Fank you all again fur all yous help and fur da suggestions.
OMC Time be flyin’ by. Here it is alweady almost da weekend again. Mommy’s makin’ sum headway and we almost hav da whole bedwoom floor back. So since we hav all dat room back again, Lexi and me hav been purracticin’ fur ow vewy own race. Weez been runnin’ at full speed fwu da house. And fur sum weason’ dat just weally amuses mommy. Hers been sittin’ down and watchin’ us and gwinnin’ so much weez fawt hers face wuz stuck. Of course yous all know dat sis Lexi be on up there in years, but hers weally duz play like a yungster. And wiff all da boxes wound hers got all these ladders and steps dat help hers reach fings hers hasn’t been able to jump on by hers selff these last foo years.
So mommy wuz in da kitchen washin’ da bwekky dishes and hers heard da sound of funder wumblin’ fwu da house. Well da last time mommy had looked at da wedder and outside fur dat matter, da sun wuz shinin’ and there wuz no rain in sight. So hers gwabbed da dish towel to dwy hers hands and came to da edge of da dinin’ room where hers wuz met by a flash of white fluff and then a black stweak. Mommy stopped dead and then WHOOSH a flash ob black followed immediately by a flash of white floof and POUND, POUND, SQUISH! Lexi wuz chasin’ me and then me wuz chasin’ hers. And when weez got to da bedroom weez hopped fwum 1 box to da udder and landed on da bed and rolled wound. We boff looked up and saw mommy standin’ at da doorway wiff da dish towel hangin’ fwum hers hand and hers eyes leakin’ all ovew da place. And Lexi and me wuz boff just layin’ there lookin’ at hers and then mommy came ovew and crawled on da bed wiff us and held us close and da wumble of purrs stawted.
Mommy pawlogized fur all da upset weez been fwu lately and da messy house and havin’ all ow stuffs packed up and bein’ cawted off to motels and not havin’ da room to run and play fur so long. And lexi and me nuzzled in a little closer and meowed to mommy. Yous know what weez wuz sayin’? Dat weez didn’t cawe and dat it wuz okay. Cuz da whole time mommy wuz wight there wiff us. And dat’s all weez needed. Now don’t get me wong, weez enjoyin’ gettin’ mowe and mowe of ow pawtment back and bein’ able to play, but weez wuldn’t want it ifin mommy wusn’t here wiff us. Once ow little luv fest wuz ovew, mommy went back to washin’ da dishes and Lexi went to take a nap and me went to watch ovew mommy while hers worked. And of course me had to play in a foo boxes while hers unpacked and wiff a foo toys when hers took bweaks. All in all……a vewy good day. And guess what? Weez gunna do it again tomowwo.
Weez got sum gweat news, but mommy sez weez hav to wait a bit to tell it to yous all. In da meantime weez wanna say fank yous to Savannah and hers mommy fur puttin’ tugedder this fundraiser to help us wepkace a foo fings dat wuz lost in da floods. Ifin yous haven’t checked it out yet yous can by clickin’ here. And weez wanna fank da wunnewful anonymous donor dat visited and left gween papers fur us yesfurday. So Fank yous, weez weally purreciate it.

There we wuz goin’ to da motel and not knowin’ ifin weez wuld be able to get good innewnet service, and da weekend afur. mommy had lots of fings to do so me didn’t get to spend much time at Cat Scouts wiff Andy.
