Chatting Cats: Getting Ready And Catching Up

Hey everypawdy, it’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s sure hope ya’ll are stayin’ cool what with all this heat. I’s know t’ween the heat of summer of these things mommy calls her own purrsonal summers, she’s been glistenin’ a lot. What’s that? Glistenin’, you ask? Well, ladies in the South don’t sweat, they glisten. Yep, that’s right, us Southern Belles naturally glisten. And here all these beauty bloggers are spendin’ big bucks on pots of powder to do what we do naturally. MOL 

 

Dezi lays on scratcher and looks back over her shoulder

 

 

 

          RaenaBelle!!!  What are you meowin’ ‘bout now? Me’s sure mommy won’t ‘purreciate you meowin’ ‘bout her glistenin’. As soon as she gets her head outta the fureezer, me’s gonna tell her you blabbed to the world.

 

Raena sits on small perch and looks out the door

 

 

 

 

Sure you will sissy. (Looking out the door from the small perch, Raena sees the lawn crew drive up) I’s have a feelin’ you’re gonna be UTB (under the bed) befur that happens. And, mommy has her regular monthly doctors ‘pointment today, so we’ll be gone this afternoon. I’s bet by the time we get home, you’ve already furgotten what I’s might have meowed, when and to who.

 

Dezi plays on scratcher

 

 

 

 

 

          Whom, Raena, the word’s whom. 

 

Whom? Whom are you meowin’ ‘bout sissy, and why? 

 

Dezi scratches scratcher

 

 

 

 

          That’s who, Raena. Oh furget it. Ya’ll better not stay out too long, we’ve got lots of furiends left to visit. We’re slowly gettin’ caught up. But Kittens!!!, when you get behind a few days it takes furever to get all caught up.  

 

Raena sits stop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

 

That’s true sissy, but we are makin’ headway. I’s just hate it when we get behind. I’s miss hearin’ what’s goin’ on with all our furiends. Anyways, I’s doubt we’ll be gone too long. It’s s’posed to be in the triple digits today, so I’s sure mommy’ll wanna hurry and get back home. I’s do know we’re gonna make a stop and get us somethin’ special to eat fur the 4th. Fanky fanks to awnty Vonda who sent a few green papers and told mommy to get us all somethin’ that we can enjoy. Now what’s the big deal ‘bout the 4th again?

 

Dezi lays on scratcher and licks paw

 

 

 

          Well Raena, it’s Independence day. The day the furfathers signed the Declaration of Independence. That’s the good pawrt. The bad pawrt is that humans think they oughtta buy a bunch of gun powder in nifty packagin’ and set ‘em off till all hours of the night. We’re in fur a week or so of boom, boom, booms keepin’ us up and interfurrin’ with our beauty naps.

 

Like the ones we heard last night and the night befur sissy? 

 

          Yep, Raena, just like ‘em. 

 

Raena sits pretty on the Liberty cat tree

 

 

 

Those weren’t too bad sissy. But, they better not keep us up all night. I’s want mine’s mommy and me cuddle time. Meowin’ of, guess I’s better go see what mommy’s doin’ and get ready to go to town. Why don’t you get us a nice cubby ready fur the boom boom show. Any requests fur our special meal?

 

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

Blest Sunday: Getting By In The Heat

MeOW  RaenaBelle, hurry up, it’s Blest Sunday. What are you doin’ anyways? You know it’s time to count our Blessings, so get the lead out!!!

          Raena: Sheesh sissy, chill out. What’s gotten into you? And what’s lead and where is it? I’s don’t have any lead, I’s all fur and goodness. 

 

Dezi bowed head selfie

 

 

 

Yeah, sure you are, Raena. Get the lead out is just another one of those silly human x’pressions that’s s’posed to mean hurry up.

 

Raena lays on the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

 

          So in other words, you just meowed hurry up twice? Like I’s didn’t hear ya’ the furst time. Anyways, what’s up with you; Peein’ everywhere but the pawtty box? Furst you started hollerin’ fur mommy to come carry ya’ to the pawtty box and then ya’ just started peein’ where ya’ stand? I’s mean, really? It’s not very ladycat like, ya’ know?. Have you furgotten that we’re like extra clean and super duper smart? Not to mention, gawjus? 

 

Why don’t you quit tellin’ tales on me and worry ‘bout yourself. Here it is summer time and ‘stead of hangin’ out and watchin’ purrime time on nature teevee from your purrch, you’re sleepin’ the day away in the pawtty box room. Who does that?

 

          Well sissy, the sink in there’s nice and cool. And it’s been really hot ‘round here lately.

 

Dezi looks at camera selfie

 

 

 

You’re right ‘bout that, Raena. We’ve definitely had the hots this past week. Mommy says it’s only gonna get hotter, so me guesses we better get used to it. ‘Course, that brings me to the furst Blessin’ me’s grateful fur this week, air conditioning. We don’t have to try to find a cool spot, the whole house is a cool spot.

 

Raena lays on the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

          That’s so true sissy. And we’ve got purrlenty to eat, and a mommy who luvs us unconditionally. We sure are Blest kitties. I’s mean, did you see all the noms we got? ‘Pawrently there was a sale, so mommy stocked up on one of our faves, Primal freeze dried rabbit. 

 

Yep Raena, me saw it. And, she just ordered 2 big o’le bags of litter. She says it was on sale fur half purrice. 

 

          That’s great sissy, but maybe ‘stead of buyin’ litter, she should’a stocked up on piddle pads. 

 

Dezi with lowered head and flat ears selfie

 

 

 

Well Raena, maybe me’s peein’ outside of the pawtty box has somethin’ to do with that stinky purrfumed clay litter we tried out last month. Mommy plans on throwin’ it out when our new litter gets here. 

 

          What x’cuse are ya’ gonna use then sissy? Ya’ know, when you still pee on the floor? 

 

Why don’t you not worry ‘bout it Raena. Hmmmpht  Besides, me used the piddle pad, not the floor. So, what’s the furst Blessing you wanna count this week? 

 

Raena lays on the liberty cat tree looking off into space

 

 

 

          Well sissy, like always, I’s wanna give fanky fanks fur all our amazin’ furiends. Last week we posted a give away and asked our furiends to nominate their favorite shelters to receive a Cat Amazing Shelter Kit of their own. Fanky fank you all fur your nominations. We put all the names into Random Picker and asked it to choose a winner. The lucky shelter that will be receiving an amazin’ purrize is Safe Haven for Cats in Raleigh North Carolina. We hope they enjoy their Cat Amazing as much as we do. We have the most wonderful and generous furiends in the universe. I’s can’t ‘magine life without ‘em, can you? 

 

Yeah Raena, Furiends are always a great Blessing, and you’re right, ours are the greatest. Every day we ask God to Bless them and their families. 

 

          Ya’ know sissy, I’s been thinkin’… 

 

Dezi lays on arm of chair and looks down

 

 

 

Oh No Raena, don’t let your head explode. When you start thinkin’, somehow, we always seem to get into trouble. What do ya’ say we do less thinkin’ and take a nice afternoon nap?. Maybe we can play when it cools off some. Me seems to ‘member we got a new toy this week. Mommy hasn’t takin’ it outta the box yet, but it’s s’posed to be guaranteed to appeal to our sense of kitty adventure.

 

Raena lays on the liberty cat tree-profile selfie

 

 

 

          Really sissy? Then how can you take a nap, knowin’ we have a new toy that we haven’t even seen yet? Where is it? I’s wanna see the new toy now!!! You can nap ifin ya’ want, but I’s gonna go have a little chat with mommy. 

 

You do that Raena. In the meantime, we’d like to remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to give Thanks fur the Blessings in your lives. Fank you all fur bein’ such amazin’ furiends. We luv ya’ll bunches and bunches.

 

          Don’t furget sissy, we’re linkin’ up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies.

Chatting Cats: Mousies, Rats And Nip Oh My

Hey everypawdy, it’s me, RaenaBelle. Ya’ know, I’s went lookin’ fur that fly after mine’s dinner and couldn’t find it anywhere. It’s like it just disappeared or somethin’. Mommy said flies don’t live very long in the house, so he purrobably just went off somewhere and died,. I’s sure hope he don’t start stinkin’ up the place. Humans are always talkin’ ‘bout how their house smells like somethin’ crawled up in the walls and died. Maybe it’s flies. Maybe we’re bein’ over run with the little buggers. Ya’ think?

 

Dezi lays on the chair arm while looking down, selfie

 

 

 

          Raena, flies don’t stink up a house when they die. Where’d you ever get that idea? When peeps say those kinds of things, they’re usually talkin’ ‘bout mousies or some other kind’a vermin. 

 

Raena sits pretty in the chair

 

 

 

Mousies? You mean there are really in truly live mousies? Have you ever seen a live mousy, sissy?

 

          You mean outside of the pet store Raena? Hmmmmm  Well, me thinks me ‘members seein’ one at BlogPaws the year we went. Yeah, there was a blogger there that was carryin’ ‘round the biggest mousy me’s ever seen. Mommy says it was really a rat, but rats schmats, aren’t they the same thing? Least they’re in the same furmily, Dinner rodents. MOL 

 

Raena hunches on the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

Really sissy? Have you ever had mousy or rat? Does it taste anythin’ like rabbit or chicken? 

 

Dezi looks up at the cat tree while laying on the arm of the chair

 

 

 

          Nah Raena, me’s never had mouse or rat. Mommy’s scared of ‘em. She says they have huge sharp teethies and bite. She says they carry disease and parasites, so the only mousies we’re ever gonna get are the furry nip filled kind.

Sharp teethies and disease, huh? Well sissy, I’s think I’s fine with only gettin’ the furry nip filled mousies. I’s don’t want anythin’ that might send me back to the V-E-T’s office. No way.

 

          Me either Raena. You know, several of our furiends hunt mice all the time, and me doesn’t mean the furry nip filled kind.

 

Raena sits stop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

Well sissy, I’s guess ifin they enjoy it, then it’s okay. You know, different strokes fur different kitty folks. Ya’ know, I’s can’t ‘magine any kitty choosin’ mousies over nip. Kittens, I’s luvs nip. Nip toys, nip mats, nip plants, nip any and every way. I’s just luvs the stuffs.

 

Dezi plays with the nip nanner

 

 

 

          Me too Raena, me too. Me’s favorite bein’ the Yeowww nip nanner. Ya’ know, me’s been thinkin’ those Yeowww peeps should be payin’ us as much as we purrmote their silly purroducts. 

 

I’s agree sissy. Ifin they actually paid us, we could buy more nip nanners. Wouldn’t that be fun? Can you ‘magine nip nanners in every room? 

 

Dezi lays on the arm of the chair, Selfie

 

 

 

          That would be fun Raena, but me doesn’t think that’s gonna happen anytime soon.

 

Raena lays on the liverty cat tree

 

 

 

Well sissy, with all this meowin’ ‘bout nip, I’s think I’s hear some nip callin’ mine’s name. Wanna play? 

 

 

          Yeah, sure Raena, me’s right behind ya’. (Dezi lays down on the cat scratcher and mumbles) Me’s just gonna have a little nap furst. 

 

(Raena runs off to find a toy and looks back at Dezi laying on the scratcher) Sissy?! Let’s play!!! 

 

Dezi poses with the cat amazing puzzle toy

 

 

 

Don’t furget to paw on over to our Blest Sunday posty to enter our give away and nominate your favorite U.S. shelter or rescue to receive their very own Cat Amazing Shelter Kit.

Chatting Cats: The Mighty Huntress Scourge Of Insects

Hey everypawdy, it’s me, RaenaBelle. (Raena sees something out of the corner of her eye) MeOW  Sissy!!! Did you see that?!!! What was that? Where’d it go? (Raena runs and jumps on the scratcher in front of the t.v. where a fly zooms past her) Where’d you go little fly? Come back here! I’s RaenaBelle, Queen of mine’s domain and the mighty huntress. I’s put fear in all those who cross mine’s path. I’s the scourge of the insect world. 

 

Dezi lays on the arm of the chair

 

 

 

          Scourge…Hmmpht  You got that right. MOL  Raena, you better be careful or you’re gonna hurt yourself. What would it look like ifin the mighty huntress, queen of her domain was done in by a little fly? 

 

Raena stands on cat scratcher looking shocked

 

 

 

(Raena jumps off the scratcher and back on again and again pawing at the fly. She runs to the door perch, the kitchen and back to the scratcher chasing the fly.) Come here fly, I’s gonna get ya’. Once I’s got your scent I’s don’t stop fur nuffin’. You’s might as well give up now. (Looking over at Dezi, Raena meows) I’s not gonna get hurt sissy. I’s the greatest huntress ever. I’s learned everythin’ I’s know ‘bout huntin’ from mine’s lion furiends in the tv box when I’s was just a baby kitten. ‘Member sissy? I’s helped them hunt a buffalo, and a zebra, and even a giraffe.

 

Raena stares at fly while sitting on the cat scratcher

Come ‘ere fly, just a little closer…

 

 

 

          Yeah, yeah, yeah, Raena. Me ‘members you sittin’ in front of the tv blockin’ everypawdy’s view. The lions did all the huntin’ and the killin’.,,And all the eatin’ too ifin me recalls. MOL  You just chattered on pawin’ at the tv. (The fly zooms past Raena who jumps down and follows it up the liberty cat tree where she loses it for a minute. The she sees it twirling around the ceiling fan and she leans forward looking as tho’ she’s going to leap onto the fan blades) RaenaBelle!!! Don’t you dare jump on the ceiling fan from there. You’ll fall and hurt yourself and mommy’ll have a literal heart attack. Ifin you got all cut up and broken mommy would never furgive you. Besides she hasn’t ordered any of that fauna-care first aid spray. 

 

Raena sits on cat tree staring up at a fly

 

 

 

I’s not gonna get hurt sissy. I’s indestructable, like that superman. Yeah, I’s RaenaBelle the SuperCat. I’s need a cape to go with mine’s crown. I’s never gonna stop till I’s ketch that fly. And, I’s not gonna get hurt. Mommy’ll make sure that never happens. You know she’s always sayin’ how she’d never let anyone or anythin’ hurt us no matter what. So see? I’s purrfectly safe. 

 

          But Raena, mommy can’t do anythin’ to save ya’ ifin you do somethin’ stupid. 

 

Raena sits on the liberty cat tree staring up at a fly

 

 

 

That’s not nice sissy. You’s better take it back or I’s gonna tell mommy that you called me stupid. 

 

          Me didn’t call you stupid Raena, but it’s beginnin’ to sound like you might be. 

 

Now, where’d that fly go? Come here mine’s purretty, I’s gonna get..Oooooh dinner. Well fly, it’s been fun playin’, but I’s gotta go eat dinner.

 

          Hmmmpht The great huntress that doesn’t stop fur nuffin’ huh? Hey, wait fur me, me’s hungry too.

 

Stay in your own plate sissy. Ya’ know, I’s sure glad I’s don‘t have to hunt fur mine’s own food. That’s a lot of work. Fanky fankfully we’ve got a mommy that fixes our meals fur us. There are so many kitties out there that don’t have a mommy like we do. I’s so wish they all had their own furever homes full of luvs. 

 

Dezi lays on the arm of the chair, selfie

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me too. Ya’ know, June is Adopt a Shelter Kitty month. Me sure hopes lots of kitties find their furevers. In the meantime, me can’t wait to see which shelter our furiends choose to receive their Cat Amazing Shelter kit. Don’t furget to visit our Blest Sunday posty to nominate your favorite U.S. shelter or rescue and enter to win a Cat Amazing fur yourself.

 

Let’s go eat sissy.
