          But sissy, I’s wanna play. You’re no fun. 

 

Dezi and Raena check out the Kitty Kick Stix

 

 

There’ll be purrlenty of time to play later Raena. Right now, it’s posty time. And, we’ve gotta get to writin’ while mommy’s still awake to take meow-tation. Ya’ know, she kept conkin’ out yesfurday.  

 

 Dezi lays atop the liberty cat tree while Raena stands sniffing at the shelf

 

 

          She does that all the time sissy. ‘Specially when she’s tired. I’s guess she was really tired yesfurday, cuz even after takin’ that nap, she still conked out over the keyboard. All we can do is hope we weren’t visitin’ one of our furiends at the time. Ifin so, our meow-tation wouldn’t make any sense. I’s just hope she’s ketchin’ up on all that sleep she missed. Mine’s eyes are doin’ much better, and I’s feelin’ all spry and happy now. 

 

 Dezi and Raena laying atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

          Yeah, you’re feelin’ a little too spry ifin ya’ ask me. You’ve been doin’ zoomies and bouncin’ off the walls fur the last couple of days. Not to mention jumpin’ all over me ever chance ya’ get.

 

          I’s just feelin’ sooooooo good sissy. All I’s want is fur you to play with me. But noooooo, you’re just bein’ an old fuddy duddy. By the way, what ‘zactly is a fuddy duddy? The weather’s coolin’ off and I’s got all this energy inside, and I’s just gotta let it out. MOL 

 

Dezi sniffs her nip toys

 

 

Yeah, it is getting’ cooler isn’t it Raena?. Ifin ya’ don’t know what somethin’ is, then ya’ might think twice ’bout meowin’ it. Anyways, it’s also startin’ to turn dark earlier too. That means we’ll get to eat dinner an hour earlier. 

 

          We will sissy? Did anypawdy tell mommy that? Cuz I’s know I’s can’t tell time, but I’s purretty sure we ate dinner an hour later than usual last night. 

 

Well, mommy’s just gotta ketch up with the time, that’s all.

 

 Dezi and Raena atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

          Hmmmpht  By the time she does that, it’ll be time to change all our clocks. Ya’ know, crazy humans think they need to play with time. They should just do what us kitties do…run on tummy time.

 

Yep Raena, that’s purrobably the smartest thing you’ve ever said. Anyways, we’re here to meow ‘bout our blessings, not meow the fat ‘bout time and other such nonsense. 

 

Dezi and Raena eat Primal Freeze dried Cat food

 

 

          There ain’t nuffin’ nonsensical ‘bout noms and dinner time sissy. But you’re right, such blest kitties as we are should fur sure meow ‘bout ‘em. Even tho’ I’s didn’t wanna go to the V E T, I’s feelin’ much better now that I’s did. Altho’, fur some reason you and mommy keep complainin’ ‘bout mine’s smell. 

 

Oh Raena, you’ve got a nose. And me knows you can smell it too. Y, You even grumble right befur you pass that wind. Ya’ almost ran mommy and me outta bed last night with the smell.

 

          Seems that vaccination made me a little gassy, sissy. I’s grumble cuz mine’s tummy’s rumblin’. I’s sure hope it goes away soon. 

 

 Dezi profile atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

So do we, Raena, so do we. But, me knows mommy and me are fur sure happy you’re feelin’ better, stinky or not. Me believes you’ve even put on a few pounds since your visit to that pawful place. 

 

          Yeah sissy, mommy’s had to make both of us seconds at each meal the last few days. she says she’s so happy we’re eatin’ so good. I’s just grateful we have enuff noms to get those seconds. ‘Specially when just a few short days ago, we ran out.

 

We are blest Raena. We’re blest to have so many pawsumly amazin’ furiends too. Me knows we’re behind in our visits, but me sure hopes things slow down a bit now and we can get ‘round to see everypawdy soon. We miss so much when we can’t visit.

 

 Dezi and Raena atop the liberty cat tree with Yeowww toy

 

 

          That’s the truth sissy. Even tho’ we might not make it by to visit with them, they’re always in our thoughts and purrayers. We are all so blest to have each other. I’s sure wanna say a meowsy big fanky fanks to all of them fur their purrayers fur me.

 

 Dezi licks lip as she looks around the corner from the dining room

 

 

Well, Raena, let’s link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies and go play. We also wanna remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the many blessings in your lives. 

 

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

Chatting Cats: Alive and Kicking

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s still alive!!! They tried their bestest to do away with me, but they failed!!! Fanky fank da cats mommy was there to purrtect me. She’ll bare the scars of her luvs and devotion to me furever. Sorry, ‘bout that mommy, I’s was just sooooooo scared, and you were right, mine’s claws do need clippin’. 

 

Dezi looks at Raena from atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

          RaenaBelle, fur kittens sake, nopawdy was tryin’ to kill ya’. (whispers under her breath) ‘Cept maybe me when ya’ jump on me’s back. (meowing audibly again) Anyways, what was up with you? You luv goin’ to town with mommy. But yesfurday you were tryin’ to hide, and escape the stroller and meowin’ to high heaven. Mommy says you even made a scene in the car. you could’a caused ya’ll to have an accident ya’ know?.

 

 Raena with goopy eyes

See mommy? Mine’s eyes look so much better. I’s don’t

need to go anywhere.

 

 

 

 

Oh sissy, after askin’ all our furiends to purray fur me, mine’s eyes were doin’ much better, and I’s decided I’s didn’t wanna go to the (whispers) V E T. And, I’s was right. They were just pawful. It smelled and there was this poor kitty somewhere in there that meowed to me how they were torturin’ him. Bless his heart, I’s couldn’t help him at all, so I’s scurried back into the stroller and pleaded with mommy fur us to leave post haste. What did she do? She just sat there luvvin’ on me like it was just any other day. Like I’s didn’t know what was gonna happen. The doctor came in with a needle bigger than me to stick me with. 

 

          A needle bigger than you huh? 

 

 Raena lays on the back of the chair

 

 

Okay, so maybe it wasn’t bigger than me, but it was still huge. You know, I’s lost some weight cuz mine’s eyes and all the drainage makes me not wanna eat so good; so any needle is too big fur mine’s poor little bony body. 

 

          Yeah, you might be built different than me Raena, and thus smaller, but there’s nuffin’ poor, little or bony ‘bout your body. Ifin that was the case, mommy would’a took ya’ to the V E T much sooner. You know mommy doesn’t get any joy outta takin’ us to that place. But you also know you’ve kept us all awake all week rubbin’ your eyes. Mommy’s exhausted and scared you might go blind ifin she doesn’t find a way to fix ya’. So, did you get any medicine? 

 

 Raena lays on cat tree

 

 

Yes sissy, I’s did. Fanky fanks to awnty Vonda who sent some green papers in case the charges were more than we could charge. Ya’ know we can only charge a hunnerd dollars, and mines medicine alone was almost $25.00. They sent home some of those pawful eye drops I’s hate so much. They help, but mommy doesn’t wanna use ‘em long term. The V E T told mommy to see how I’s do when winter comes. And ifin mine’s eyes clear up, we’ll know it’s fur sure allergies. But, ifin they don’t, I’s gotta go back. Hmmmmpht Can you believe they want me to come back? 

 

Dezi lays atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

          Yeah Raena, they do like takin’ our money. But, your eyes are very ‘purrtant, so ifin ya’ need to go back, then ya’ need to go back. We’ll just purray things get better and you don’t have too. Did the V E T say anythin’ else? Guess with you clingin’ to mommy so, she didn’t get any fotos  

 

Dezi watches Raena atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

Oh sissy, I’s healthy, happy and gawjus she said. You know they couldn’t get enuff of me. All grabby and stuffs they just kept wantin’ to touch me and coo over me. As fur the fotos…ya’ know, the funniest thing happened. I’s was so busy tryin’ to avoid getting’ dressed and you were so busy hidin’ UTB so you didn’t have to go, that neither of us reminded mommy to put the camera in her purrse. We were halfway to Ardmore when mommy realized she furgot it. By that time, it was too late to turn ‘round. So, there’s no foto evidence of mine’s horror visit. But, meowin’ of fotos, we got a great box that we’re gonna be tellin’ everypawdy ‘bout this month and we decided to share some of it with our new furiend Nubs. Mommy asked ifin she could take fotos of Nubs and Ms. A said it was okay. So, we have a foto of Nubs to show everypawdy. By the way, we’re gonna be givin’ one of those pawsum boxes we got away this month too. I’s think we’ve told ya’ll, we have a few great give aways comin’ up this month. Any of the items would make a pawsum Christmas gift fur your bestest feline furiend. As a matter of fact, we’ve got one comin’ up fur ya’ next week.

 

Nubs the black and white manx cat looks at the cameraHere’s Nubs. He’s a black and white Manx kitty.

 

 

          We sure do Raena. All these give aways are a build up to me’s birthday. We’re so x’cited. Ya’ know we luv sharin’ so anytime we can share our blessin’ with our furiends, we’re really happy. Meowin’ of Christmas as you were Raena, we’d also like everypawdy to know that awnty Ann from Zoolatry is takin’ orders fur Holiday PhotoArt. You know, even ifin ya’ don’t have a bloggy, she could design somethin’ pawsum fur you to use as your Christmas Cards. Check out some of the amazin’ work she does here. And, you can contact her directly at: zoolatry@gmail.com. What do ya’ say we go play? 

 

Dezi sleeps in the seat of the chair while Raena lays on the back of the chair

I’s right behind ya’ sissy. I’s think we purrobably oughtta keep it down tho’, I’s think mommy might need a nap.

Chatting Cats: A Little Mewsy

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. (Dezi and Raena pace in the living room waiting for mommy to put down the breakfast plates. Suddenly they hear the roar of the lawn crew. They look at each other and Dezi runs down the hall toward the bedroom. Raena runs behind her and then stops. She remembers passing mommy on all fours heading for the living room with her breakfast and turns back towards mommy. Just as she reaches mommy and starts to rub against her there’s a knock at the door. Raena steps slightly forward, looks out the slightly ajar door and hisses. Mommy, still on all fours with breakfast plates on her back, gently says)

 

Dezi walks down hall

 

 

          It’s just the manager and bug man honey. They’re here for inspections and exterminations. (As mommy tries to get to the door without dropping the breakfast plates from her back, she contemplates how she’s going to open the door. Raena walks slowly beside mommy, rubbing against her occasionally. When mommy finally gets to the door, nobody’s there, and she feels a sense of relief. Mommy and Raena butt heads as they head to the living room. The noise of the lawn crew wanes as they move to the other side of the property and Dezi runs up and rubs against mommy. Breakfast plates down and mommy in her sittin’ chair, Dezi and Raena begin to eat.

 

Sissy? Why do we always run when the lawn crew shows up? You know we’re s’posed to be helpin’ mommy. Besides, they’re just noisy. They can’t actually hurt us. 

 

 Dezi sits in hall and scratches ear

 

 

     (Dezi stops and nonchalantly scratches her ear)  Me doesn’t know why you run Raena. Me is helpin’ mommy. Me’s checkin’ fur those pesky intruders that scare her. You know, the last thing we’d want is fur mommy to get scared with our brekky plates. Now that wouldn’t be purretty. Anyways…(Suddenly, the lawn crew’s back, right outside the door and a rock hits the window, and then another and another; till Dezi runs off back down the hall. Raena sits and looks bewildered at first and then runs to the hall and into Dezi

 

Dezi and Raena meet in the hall way

Oh, hey sissy, wha’ch’a doin’? (Raena stops and rubs her eyes)

 

 

     Me heard mommy on the fone yesfurday Raena. Seems you’re goin’ to the V E T tomorrow. Ya’ better remind her to put the camera in her purrse tonight, or she’ll furget it tomorrow. Altho’ she might oughtta check the battery furst.

 

 

 Raena sits on perch and looks out door

 

 

That’s okay sissy. I’s sure hope they can do somethin’ to help mine’s eyes. I’s know mommy doesn’t want me to be on antibiotics and steroids fur a long time, and quite furankly, I’s don’t like havin’ those drops put in mine’s eyes; but, they do seem to help clear everythin’ up. I’s know mommy had wanted to take me to a new V E T. But she says, we can charge mine’s visit with the old one, and we just don’t have any green papers right now. She said mine’s eyes just can’t wait any longer, she just hates to see me hurtin’. We’re so blest to have a mommy that loves us so much. As fur the camera, why can’t you help me remind her. Ya’ know, the more naggin’ the better. MOL 

 

 Dezi peeks out from a chewy box

 

 

     Sure ‘nuff Raena. Me sure hopes they can help ya’. Maybe ya’ll can go back to the store and get me a birthday surpurrise.

 

 Raena lays on perch and looks out door

 

 

What ifin mommy already got you one, sissy? We’ve got a big box in the hallway to review that mommy says is gonna be your birthday surpurrise. Seems that should be enuff. (Hearing muffled talking outside Raena runs to the perch to look outside) Hey sissy, do you think we have a new neighbor already? 

 

     Me has no idea Raena. It was crazy. The day the new old neighbors moved out and turned in their keys, some lady moved a bed in there and hasn’t left since. She also hasn’t moved anythin’ else in. Can you ‘magine livin’ there with just a bed? And what’s she eatin’? And wearin’ fur that matter? Strange, me tells ya’, it’s just strange.

 

 Dezi looks at Raena from atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

Yeah sissy, it’s fur sure strange. Guess we’ll just have to wait and see what happens. Maybe she moved here from somwhere far away and her stuffs comin’ in one of those big trucks or somethin’. Anyways, let’s go finish eatin’ and play. I’s’ll be there after I’s ask everypawdy to purray fur me and mommy and our trip to the V E T tomorrow.

 

     And your eyes Raena, don’t furget your eyes. 

 

Fanky fanks sissy.

Blest Sunday: Swapping Plates & Making Friends

Raena!!! Stop runnin’ into me and get outta me’s brekky plate. Eat your own noms.

 

 Blest Sunday purple kitty clip art graphic

 

 

          I’s sorry sissy, mine’s eyes keep gobbin’ up and I’s can’t see so good. Besides, the noms taste better in you plate. 

 

 Dezi and Raena eat Primal Freeze dried Cat food

 

 

You have the same noms in your plate. Mommy says,… we both get the same thing. (Dezi meows quietly under her breath) And me knows we do, cuz me eats from your plate all the time. (Dezi turns and meows to Raena) Sorry ‘bout your eyes, me heard mommy talkin’ ‘bout a V E T visit fur ya’. 

 

 Raena sitting pretty

I’s was a itty bitty kitty girl back then. The harness

was way too big fur me.

 

 

 

          I’s heard that sissy. You know, the pawrt ‘bout you eatin’ mine’s noms. Ifin it’s okay fur you to eat mine’s noms, then it’s okay fur me to eat yours. Fanky fanks to awnty Vonda, amazon and Chewy, we only had to go 1 day without our yummy noms. As fur the V E T, I’s thinkin’, I’s might not mind. It’s been a long time since I’s last visited a V E T, I’s can barely ‘member it. Besides, mommy got stabbed at her doctors visit the other day and she said it didn’t hurt at all. Maybe, they’ll skip stabbin’ me cuz of mine’s eyes. I’s can hope, right?

 

Dezi lays on counter at vet officeMe wasn’t so little, and me doesn’t ever wanna go back. MOL

 

Yep Raena, we sure are blest. Me will purray they skip the stabbin’ ya’ too. See, me’s a good sissy. Me’s not sure what mommy tried to get us to eat on Fursday, but me sure was glad to see mr. Fedex.

 

          Me too sissy. Seems we have a new driver, and when he brought our box, he wouldn’t let go of it till mommy purroved who she was. He said the GPS wouldn’t bring up our address and that he’d tried to deliver our noms to the baseball pawrk furst.

 

It’s a good thing nopawdy was out there, they might’a stole our noms.

 

 Primal freeze dried cat food

 

 

          That would’a been pawful sissy. Ya’ know that silly address change our town went thru a few years back was s’posed to make it easier to find us. ‘Stead, all it does is confuse everypawdy, even the 911 peeps arent’ sure where they’re goin’ these days.

 

Yeah Raena, not all change is good. Hey, what do you think ‘bout the new furiend mommy said we have? 

 

          What new furiend sissy? I’s didn’t get to meet any new furiends.? 

 

Me neither, silly. But you sniffed mommy’s hands fur the longest time when she came back in from her visit. She said she met the cutest little manx kitty boy named Nubs. She said she saw him sittin’ in the window of one of the ‘pawrtments out here, so she went by to say hi. She said he and his purrson were both really nice.

 

Raena lays in brown cat tree house

 

 

 

          Oh, that furiend. Yep sissy, he smelled like a nice kitty. I’s sure hope the next time mommy goes to visit she’ll take me with her. Maybe he’d like to play. 

 

Maybe Raena. Mommy said she asked ifin mr. Nubs might wanna try the noms we get to try out but won’t eat. It’s always nice when we can pass along a blessin’ to someone else who doesn’t have much. Ms. A and Nubs said they’d luv too. Ms. A said Nubs was an escape artist who luvved to dart out the door when it opened.

 

Raena outside in her walking harness

 

 

          I’s don’t know why any kitty would wanna run outside without their purrson. The outside world is so scary and full of terrible dangers. But, I’s glad we can help Nubs out. We are such blest kitty girls to be able to try so many new things. We’ve got some really great things we’re tryin’ out this month.

 

 Dezi outside in walking harness

 

 

We sure do Raena. Me’s already seen one thing fur sure Nubs is gonna get. Meowin’ of pawsum new things, we need to go play with one of those new toys so mommy can get some fotos fur our review. And did you know the company’s gonna let us host a give away too? Me luvs give aways.

 

 Raena lays on the back of the chair

 

 

          I’s do too, sissy. We haven’t had one fur a while now, so this is gonna be great fun. Let’s link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday selfies and go play.

 

 Dezi laying on back of chair

 

 

Sounds good Raena. Furst, we wanna remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your life. There’s been so much tragedy the last few months. And, altho’ our hearts break thinkin’ ‘bout all those that have been affected, we are so blest to live in the greatest Country in the world. We’re blest to have so many amazin’ furiends, and a mommy who luvs and adores us. 

 

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