Blest Sunday: Cuddles, Love And Friends

Dezi:  MeOW  C’mon RaenaBelle, it’s time fur our Blest Sunday posty. (Dezi looks around but doesn’t see Raena) Raena, where are you? C’mon, we don’t have all day. 

 

Dezi sits on the scratcher watching the jitterbug

 

 

 

          Raena:  ‘Course we do sissy, it’s not like we have a schedule we have to keep. It’s our bloggy, so we can make or break any of the rules we want too.

Dezi:  So you wanna be known as Raena the rule breaker? 

 

          Raena:  No sissy, but where are these rules you’re meowin’ ‘bout? 

 

Dezi lays in wheelchair

 

 

 

Dezi:  They’re unwritten rules Raena. The sooner we get our post posted, the sooner we can start visitin’ furiends. 

 

          Raena:  Hmmmmpht  Like mommy’s gonna let us on the catputer with it stormin’ outside. Did you see all those puddles? It’s been rainin’ so hard we’ve actually got flood puddles. It’s amazin’ to me how we can go from desperately needin’ the rain to flooded over night. 

 

Dezi:  Yeah Raena, that’s true. Y, just a couple weeks ago we were unner a burn ban, and now you couldn’t find a dry piece of wood to even start a fire.

 

Raena sits pretty for the camera

 

 

 

          Raena:  Like you’d even know how to start a fire sissy. 

 

Dezi:  Shows what you know Raena. Me’s a cat scout. Me knows all ‘bout fires and campin’ and all kinds of other ‘purrtant things.

          Raena:  Yeah, sure sissy, whatever you meow. Anyways, I’s thought we were gonna count our Blessings. I’s countin’ mine’s mommy and me cuddle time. I’s so luvs cuddlin’ with mommy. And with all the storms this week, I’s had extra cuddle time. How ‘bout you?  

 

Dezi:  Yep Raena, me luvs cuddle time with mommy too. And, t’ween storms, me got some extras this week. Ya’ know, me was thinkin’ ‘bout all our furiends and those who have left us recently. We really miss them, but we were so Blest to have known them in the furst place. You know how mommy’s always sayin’, we’re never purromissed tomorrow, so you should never wait to express your feelings to those you luv. 

 

Raena naps all curled up in mommy's lap

 

 

 

          Raena:  That’s why mommy’s always tellin’ us how much she luvs us, isn’t it sissy?. Sometimes when I’s layin’ all curled up in mommy’s lap and she thinks I’s sleepin’, I’s can hear her fanky fankin’ God fur me and sayin’ how much she luvs me and needs me. Sometimes she even gets the leaky eyes. I’s can feel them when they fall on mine’s furs and she gently wipes them away. I’s don’t know why she’d cry like that. I’s never leavin’ mommy. 

 

Dezi looks for Raena while sitting in the wheelchair

 

 

 

Dezi:  Me thinks those are the happy tears Raena. You know, the kind humans get when they’re so overcome with luv and joy? Me’s heard mommy say the same things ‘bout me and sis Lexi befur you. We are very Blest to have a mommy who luvs us so much. We’re Blest to have such amazin’ furiends. We wish they never had to be sick or leave us and go to heaven. It makes us so sad and our hearts hurt. But, we cherish each moment we have with all of you. 

 

          Raena:  You can meow that again sissy. Mommy says the sads of loss are just another pawrt of luvs. And luvs be the greatest Blessing we can have. Well, besides mommy, our furiends, our home, our noms, our toys, our…

 

Dezi:  Alright Raena, we get the point. Let’s wrap this up and go get some of those extra cuddles from mommy. As we do each week, we’d like to remind you all to take a minute today and every day to Give Thanks fur the Blessings in your lives. And let the special ones in your life know how ya’ feel. Thank you fur bein’ Blessings in ours. 

 

          Raena:  Don’t furget Sunday Selfies with the Kitties Blue, sissy. Sissy? Sissy?

Dezi:  (Dezi meows from mommy’s lap)  Me’s turn fur lap luvvin’ cuddles furst Raena.

Chatting Cats: Raena’s New Plan #PurrsWithAPurr-Puss

Raena:  Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Hey sissy, did you notice anythin’ different this meownin’? 

 

Dezi lays on liberty tree and Raena on the small perch looking at each other in front of the door.

 

 

 

          Dezi:  Different? Like what Raena? Did you do somethin’ new to your furs? 

 

Raena:  Don’t be silly sissy, I’s can’t change mine’s furs. I’s meant did you notice that old fly is furinally gone? I’s got him befur he could multiply again.

 

Dezi lays on chair arm

 

 

 

          Dezi:  Oh, that. Did you really get him or did he just furinally die of starvation? And, ifin you actually got him, then why was there a teeny fly in me’s food this meownin’? 

 

Raena:  I’s got him sissy. Mommy even called me the Mighty Huntress, Queen of her jungle. As fur your teeny fly, mommy says that’s a gnat, not a fly. Did you eat him? He’s just a nibble of protein. But don’t you worry, I’s RaenaBelle, Queen of mine’s jungle will ketch him in no time. 

 

          Dezi:  Oh yeah Raena? Is layin’ in front of you plate bobbin’ your head what you call huntin’? Me saw that gnat in your plate too. 

 

Raena sits on cat tree

 

 

 

Raena:  I’s just plannin’ mine’s pounce sissy, that’s all. You know, form is very ‘purrtant when huntin’. And, I’s a girly, I’s wanna look good even when I’s stalkin’ mine’s prey. You know, like a lean mean killin’ machine. 

 

Dezi lays on wheelchair

 

 

 

          Dezi:  Seriously Raena, you’re watchin’ far too much teevee. Girl, you need to get out some. (Dezi shakes her head while mumbling) Lean mean killin’ machine…We’re housecats, we don’t have any need to be lean, mean or killin’ machines. Hmmmpht  You know mommy likes us to have a little meat on our bones, don’ch’a? ‘Member the last time mommy took you to the V-E-T and said she felt like she was starvin’ ya’ cuz you’re so skinny? 

 

Raena:  I’s do sissy. But mommy ain’t starvin’ me. I’s just built different and so I’s skinnier than you. 

 

          Dezi:  Are you callin’ me fat, Raena? 

 

Raena sits pretty in the hallway

 

 

 

Raena:  ‘Course not sissy. I’s was just meowin’ that some kitties have a stockier build, like you do and some of us are long and lean…that’s all. Anyways, ‘nuff weight meowin’, we’ve got lots of other things to do and meow ‘bout. Like our upcomin’ playdate with Prancie. I’s can’t wait. I’s luvs our furiends soooooo much. I’s wish we could meet ‘em all and have everypawdy over fur a play date. (Raena’s eyes get bigger than saucers as she daydreams about meeting all her friends

 

          Dezi:  Me too Raena. That would be amazin’…and ‘spensive. We’d have to figger out a way to make some green papers so we’d have a way fur everypawdy to get here and a place fur everypawdy to stay. 

 

Raena:  Well sissy, I’s saw on the teevee the other day where peeps were rentin’ their cars out. You know, peeps are doin’ a lot of strange things to make money these days. 

 

Dezi gets love while standing on mommy's lap

 

 

 

          Dezi:  Yeah Raena, me’s not sure anypawdy would pay actual money to rent our car. While we may feel blest to have it, it’s not the bestest lookin’ car on the road, nor the most reliable.

 

Raena:  You’re purrobably right sissy. Maybe we could rent out our services. You know, purrs fur green papers? How much do you think we could charge?

 

          Dezi:  Ya’ know Raena, that’s not the worst idea you’ve come up with. That actually sounds like it could work. Ya’ know, ‘specially fur those that don’t want all the respawnsibilities that come along with ownin’ a kitty. They could pay like a thousand dollars fur 30 minutes of full on purrs. And we could charge extra fur makin’ biskits. 

 

Raena's profile while sitting on cat tree

 

 

 

Raena:  (Raena meows excitedly)  Ooh Ooh yeah, and we could charge another thousand fur your drool. You know, we could tell peeps that it’s special drool…maybe even anti-aging. You know how women are ‘bout wrinkles. MOL Oh sissy, I’s think we need to put us a business plan together and see ifin we can’t get a start up loan or somethin’. We could advertise on our bloggy and the facebutt (facebook). They advertise everythin’ there. Y, It’d be purrrrrrfect!!! 

 

          Dezi:  Slow down Raena, slow down. Me’s not sure mommy’ll go fur this. After all, who’s gonna look after her while we’re workin’? 

 

Raena:  Hmmmmm Okay, so maybe I’s don’t have it all worked out yet. But, I’s really think we should put some more thought into this. Maybe we could just run the business and hire other pussy cats to actually do the work.

 

Dezi gets loving while standing on mommy's lap

 

 

 

         Dezi:  (Dezi looks off and thinks for a minute while getting love from mommy) You might have somethin’ there Raena. Let’s go mull this over and meow ‘bout it a little more. Maybe we can hammer out all the deets (details) after a mid meownin’ nap. 

 

Raena sits on cat tree and looks to the side

 

 

 

Raena:  I’s right behind ya’ sissy. Let me just grab a pen and paper in case somethin’ comes to me in mine’s dreams. Like, a name. We could call it, Purrs of Gold. Or maybe Purrs fur Papers, ya’ know, the green ones?. Purrs With a Purr-puss, oooooh I’s really like that one. Get it, Purr Puss, Purr-puss (purpose). Purrs…(Raena settles in for a nap while yammering on and on.)

 

Would you pay money to have a kitty sit in your lap and purr?

What do you think of Dezi and Raena’s newest business plan?

Chatting Cats: Hide And Seek

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s gotta tell ya’, I’s was so happy that we actually got to visit a few of our furiends yesfurday. There was a break in the storm so I’s went to find sis Dezi so we could get mommy to help us with that opposable thumb thing. Ifin any of ya’ have actually seen our paws, then you know, the keys on those silly keyboards are way to small, so we have to have a little help. Anyways, I’s found sissy UTB (under the bed) and told her it was safe to come out. I’s told her the stupid noisy lawn crew had furinally got rained out and left and the storm had let up. 

 

Dezi lays on scratcher

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, like me couldn’t hear it fur me’s self?. Do you think me’s deaf or somethin’?  

 

‘Course not sissy, but you were still unner the bed even tho the noises had stopped. I’s just knew you wanted to see what our furiends were up too just as much as I’s did. 

 

          Did you ever think that me may have still been unner the bed cuz me wanted a little purr-ivacy or space? You know, me’s a mature ladycat and sometimes me needs a little time to me’s self. 

 

Curious Raena sits on cat tree

 

 

 

What fur sissy? Why would you ever wanna be alone? I’s never wanna be away from mommy or you fur that matter. I’s just luvs ya’ll sooooooo much. 

 

Dezi, gets lap loving

 

 

 

          Don’t even think ‘bout huggin’ on me, Raena. Me luvs to be ‘round mommy and even you; but, that doesn’t mean me has to do it all the time. Ifin mommy had really needed me, all she had to do is call fur me. She knows that. And since you can’t seem to pull yourself away from her, then you could’a called me ifin mommy couldn’t have. You know, you’re always in the middle of everythin’. Mommy couldn’t even get in the fridge to get the milk fur her cheater mac last night cuz you were where you always are, right in the middle of the floor. You know our fridge door opens backwards. Mommy did it on purr-puss to help keep the furs out. 

 

Raena lays on kitchen floor in front of fridge

 

 

 

I’s only there sissy, in case mommy needs me. I’s don’t wanna miss anythin’. And, mommy could get in the fridge, all she had to do is open the door. I’s really good at squishin’ down unner the door. 

 

          Sure Raena. That may have been true when you were smaller, but you don’t flatten much anymore. You know how much you luv the groceries. Girl, you’re hiney’s gonna be the size of Texas befur long. 

 

Raena walks toward mommy and the camera

 

 

 

Is not. That’s not very nice sissy. Have you seen yours in a mirror lately? You can put away the groceries too ya’ know. You’re always tryin’ to steal mine’s noms after you eat all of yours. Anyways, I’s moved so mommy could finish makin’ her cheater mac. I’s even got a bite of cheddar. I’s really luvs cheese, it’s so tasty. 

 

          And fattenin’. that’s why you don’t fit unner the door anymore. MOL 

 

Anyways…as I’s was meowin’ earlier, befur you so rudely innerupted me. After I’s found ya’ unner the bed, we went to get mommy to help us visit our furiends and there she was, on the fone yellin’ at someone ‘bout how they be lyin’ and robbin’ us blind. I’s thought we were never gonna get her to hang up the fone. Hmmmpht 

 

Dezi lays on cat scratcher

 

 

 

          Well she did Raena, and we furinally visited some of our furiends. Hopefully we can visit more today.

 

I’s sure hope so sissy. Ya’ know, we should tell everypawdy ‘bout awnty Paulette’s new book. We’ve not read it, so we can’t actually review it, but she’s had a few best seller’s and more ‘purrtantly, she uses all the profits to help rescue doggies. It’s called A Different Kind of Angel, and you can check it out here. Keep up the good work awnty Paulette. And did you hear that we’re gonna have a play date with our furiend Prancie soon? I’s luvs play dates, don’t you? 

 

          Me luvs anythin’ that takes your focus off me fur a while Raena. Bring on the play dates!!! Let’s wrap this up, me hears a rumblin’ off in the distance. 

 

Okay sissy. Are you gonna play with me? 

 

          Sure Raena, let’s play hide n’ seek. Me will hide and you count to a hunnerd and then come find me. Close you eyes and start countin’ now.

 

Raena sits on the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

This is gonna be so much fun, sissy. (Raena closes her eyes and starts counting) One, two, one hunnerd. Ready or not here I’s come!!!

Chatting Cats: Ain’t No Grumps Here

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s gotta tell ya’, I’s not likin’ the way things are goin’ ‘round here. I’s mean, it’s like mommy done furgot all ‘bout our nightly cuddle time, and I’s can’t ‘member the last time I’s had a treat. What’s up with that? I’s know I’s not that in to treats and all, but still…it’d be nice to be offured a couple every now and then. And Kittens!!!! Mine’s eye is really botherin’ me. Everytime I’s look up it’s gone and got all gooey again. And then mommy tries to chase me down to put medicine in ‘em. Seems all this humidity makes ‘em act up.  Hmmmpht 

 

Dezi looks at Raena from atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

          RaenaBelle!!! You sure don’t sound like yourself. Grumpy cat’s got nuffin’ on you. What’s got you in such a tizzy? 

 

Raena sits pretty on the cat tree

 

 

 

Haven’t you’s been payin’ attention sissy? Do I’s have to repeat mine’s self?

 

          No Raena, you don’t need to repeat all that nonsense. And you know that’s ‘zactly what it is, nonsense. You know mommy luvs you and luvs cuddle time. She wouldn’t miss it ifin she could help it. Besides, you’ve been gettin’ lots of extra lap luvvin’ time lately, so you’ve got nuffin’ to complain ‘bout. And, me heard you gettin’ treats just the other day. 

 

You did? Where were you sissy? 

 

 

Dezi lays in mommy's lap getting love, selfie

 

 

 

 

          Uh…Me was unner the bed lookin’ fur intruders. Yep, that’s what me was doin’, alright. With all these storms ya’ just never know what might crawl thru the walls. And, as the oldest, it’s me’s job to purrtect me’s family. Me’s gotta tell ya’, me liked it much better when me was the baby and all this respawnsibility was sis Lexi’s. Me doesn’t now how she did it all. She really was the Service Cat Extraordinaire. 

 

Lexi looks up at mommy while sitting in her lap on 3/3/2016

Lexi sure luvved mommy and spendin’ time in her lap.

 

 

 

Aaaaaw sissy, I’s sure she had days when she wished she was still the baby too. After all, I’s ‘member you tellin’ me that she was the baby fur the furst 6 years of her life. And I’s bet that as extraordinary as she was, you’re just as special. I’s think you’re a great big sisfur. (Raena whispers) Least most of the time. (Raena looks up)  Anyways, did you know that cuz we missed postin’ on Furiday, that we also missed the blooper blog hop? You know the foto fails with the Cuddlywumps.  And we missed Feline Furiday with Comedy Plus.

 

          Yeah Raena me heard. It’s a shame too, cuz goodness knows we’ve got tons of failed fotos. 

 

Raena lays in cat house on cat tree

Where’s mine’s face mommy? What kind’a foto is this? Foto Fail, big time.

 

 

 

Yeah sissy, mommy keeps tryin’, but sometimes she just can’t keep up. Did you see what she shot the other day? Y, I’s never!!! I’s pawed the delete button on that one real fast.

 

          Are you meowin’ ‘bout that foto of your hiney, Raena? Cuz Kittens, it sure looked big. Your hiney me means. MOL 

 

That’s not very nice sissy. And, mine’s hiney isn’t that big. Ifin you’s don’t be nice, I’s gonna tell mommy. 

 

Dezi's back side- blooper

Does anypawdy here think mommy got confused ’bout where

our faces might be?

 

 

 

          Kittens Raena, you’re so touchy. You know me didn’t mean naythin’ by it. Sometimes things just look bigger in fotos. Why do you think mommy tries to avoid bein’ in front of a camera? She’s not very comfurtable with that few extra pounds she put on a few years back. Anyways, me’s sorry. Your hiney;s so fluffy it’s kind’a hard to tell what size it really is. 

 

Raena lays on scratcher

 

 

 

Is that a ‘pawlogy sissy? Cuz that doesn’t sound like a ‘pawlogy. But I’s’ll accept it. I’s don’t wanna fight today. We’re too late to enter the foto fails blog hop, but we thought we’d post one anyways. Everypawdy needs a good laff to start and end their day. Looks like mommy’s finished with her coffee and needs us to help her take a shower. C’mon sissy, let’s go help.
