Blest Sunday: Chatting Cats: Heaps of Happy Tears

Hey Raena, where did you and mommy go the other day to get all those britches she’s been washin’?

 

Dezi and Raena on the Liberty Tree looking at each other

          I’s don’t know sissy, but after we sold our aluminum cans mommy saw a sign and said “Oh my cats Raena, we’ve gotta go back”. We did some kinda middle of the road turn and went into this big store with racks and racks of clothes. She kept throwin’ jeans in this basket till we couldn’t see the bottom anymore.

 

Well how many green papers till all those blue jeans cost?

 

 Raena lays in mommy's lap

 

          What do I’s know ‘bout green papers, sissy? I’s know mommy was happy, and there was purrlenty left over fur treats. What? (Mommy says something to Raena) Oh, okay. Sissy, mommy says they had a bag sale at the Good Will and she got 10 pairs of jeans and a couple dress pants fur $2.00. 

 

 Euro Pro Sewing Machine

 

Oh, dat’s purretty good. Me thinks she has plans to cut some of them off and make some shorts fur summer. That means she’s gonna be draggin’ out the sewin’ machine soon.

 

          Sewin’ Machine? What’s a sewin’ machine. sissy?

 

 Dezi lays in wheelchair

 

Oh Raena, the sewin’ machine is soooooooo much fun. There’s strings fur playin’ everywhere. Altho’ mommy gets really mad when you walk over the foot pedal. Somethin’ ‘bout a needle goin’ thru her finger. So whatever you do, stay away from that pedal. Me knows it looks like fun, but there’s purrlenty of other things to play with.

 

          There’s a foot pedal? Am I’s gonna learn to sew sissy?

 

Nope Raena, sewin’ ain’t on our list of duties. It’s kinda like the carpet monster and mop. They exist, but we don’t have to use ‘em.

 

 Raena lays in the wheelchair

 

          Well that’s good. Cuz you know this wheelchair drivin’ thing isn’t as easy as I’s thought it would be. But it sure is fun, watchin’ you run. MOL

 

That’s not nice Raena. Me just wants to make sure you don’t run over me. You can sure be dangerous with that thing. Besides, you’re not s’posed to be watchin’ me. Maybe that’s why it’s takin’ so long fur you to learn.

 

          Mommy says I’s no more dangerous than you were sissy. And that’s I’s right on schedule.

 

She’s just tryin’ to make you feel better Raena, cuz me’s a wonderful driver.

 

          Sure you are sissy. Like the other day when you ran us into the wall?.

 

 Dezi and Raena on cat tree and Raena sticks her tongue out

 

That was your fault Raena. Ifin you hadn’t swiped me’s leg, me wouldn’t have veered off course. Anyways, this isn’t Service Cat Monday, it’s Blest Sunday. And are we ever blest. As we told everypawdy on Furiday, mommy has a ‘pointment to start getting’ her teeths fixed. Ifin anypawdy missed the good mews you can read ‘bout it here. That means the total green papers we need to get all the work done is gonna be less than originally anticipated. Mommy says she’ll have to wait till after the ‘pointment to know exactly how many teeth are removed by the surgeon on Fursday, but she thinks our total will drop by ‘bout a thousand dollars. She will make the adjustment to the fundraiser once she knows fur sure. In the meantime, ifin ya’ wanna help us out, you can donate directly to our paypal at: lexi.dezi@yahoo.com or the fundraiser here.

 

 Raena Selfie woth paw reaching out

 

          That’s such pawsum mews sissy. We’re so excited. And we’ve got a pawssible ride, we just need to lock her in. Ifin anypawdy can spare a purrayer we’d purreciate it. The lady we’re talkin’ to is a little scared to drive in the city. But we know she can do it, we just need her to get the courage to say yes. And we’d also like to say a meowsy big fanky fanks to awnty Debbie, Katie and Waffles fur their donation to help mommy. I’s think that Waffles is a handsum kitty boy. But I’s hear he’s a real ladies mancat. And we also wanna fanky fank our Anonymous Angels. They’ve not only helped with green papers, but also in helpin’ mommy navigate the system, and tryin’ to find mommy a ride.

 

Dat’s right Raena. There’s been a couple times they’ve pulled mommy off the ledge durin’ all of this. And me also wants to say fank you to awnty Vonda and all her kitties. She sent some green papers fur me to get a new harness/vest to match yours and mommy’s furinally well enuff to measure me and get it ordered. Me can’t wait fur it to get here.

 

 Dezi checks out Raena in her new tiger harness

 

          Me either sissy. We’ll be stylin’ together.

 

 Dezi lays in lap and gets loving

 

Sure we will Raena. (Dezi rolls her eyes) Anyways, there’s all the other blessings we’re fankful fur today too. We have a luvvin’ furever home, food in our bellies and on our plates, and the bestest furiends in the universe. We always wanna remind ya’ll to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the many blessings in your lives. No matter what’s goin’ on, there’s always a blessing just waitin’ to be found. Every night we purray and ask God to keep His hands on all our furiends and bless ya’ll abundantly.

 

 Raena a bit distorted

 

          I’s luvs purrayer time, sissy. Let’s not furget to link up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies befur we go. (The phone rings and Raena rushes to try to answer it before mommy. Mommy grabs the phone and a short conversation ensues. Mommy begins to cry and say a bunch of thank yous and God bless yous.) OMC, OMC, OMC!!!!! While we was writin’ this very posty, the lady mommy’s been talkin’ to ‘bout takin’ her to her surgery ‘pointment called. Guess what she said?

Well Raena, by the tears in mommy’s eyes and the Cheshire grin, It’s a GO!!! Mommy now has a ride to her ‘pointment on Fursday!!! WooHoo (Dezi and Raena zoom thru the house and run up the cat tree and end up together in mommy’s lap) We gotta go and help mommy celebrate.

Chatting Cats: Is Mommy Losing It

Well, here it is already the 4th day of the Mew Year. We were all sittin’ ‘round this meownin’ thinkin’ ‘bout how quickly time is passing these days; when mommy popped up and said, “You know girls, Time waits for no man.” 

 Dezi and Raena with nip toy

          What did she mean sissy?

 

Oh Raena, me thinks she might have hit her head too hard, fallin’ outta bed or somethin’. Me has no idea what she was talkin’ ‘bout. Sometimes, she just gets lost in thought and blurts out the furst thing that comes to mind.

Dezi and Raena lay on the cat tree and small perch to look out the window and chat

          I’s checked that google thing, and it seems they don’t really know the origins of what she said, but it ain’t an original thought, so at least we know she isn’t losin’ it.

 

Don’t be silly Raena, of course she’s not losin’ it. Mommy just has a ton of stuff in her brain and sometimes it just comes out. Wonder ifin that ever happens to any of our furiends?

 

          Ifin what ever happens? They make no sense? Or just blurt out nonsense?

 

Just cuz we don’t understand doesn’t make it nonsense. Specially  ifin it exists Raena. And you said you found it on google.

 Dezi and Raena look out the front door

          Yeah sissy, but you know mommy’s always sayin’ how stupid google is. And you know that must be true, cuz she hates that word and won’t call anypawdy stupid.

 

Well, that’s true, but me knows mommy’s not losin’ it, and that’s that. Besides, she planted up her new AeroGarden yesfurday. And trust me, that took some sense. And then, she had to outwit you to get the cover back fur one of the seed pods. She was so purroud of her garden Raena, why would you go and steal a plastic cap? 

 Raena checks out the AeroGarden

          I’s couldn’t help mines self sissy. Didn’t you see them? They’re so tiny and just the right size fur carryin’ and battin’ ‘round. I was gonna have sooooooo much fun. Well, till mommy took it back that is. Besides, these are just purractice plants anyways; she hasn’t got any lettuce seeds yet.

 

Purractice or not, mommy would like to be successful. And these plants are herbs she can use to season stuffs.

 Raena oversees the AeroGarden

          She will be sissy. I’s gonna help her.

 

Is that what you call what you were doin’…Help?. Hmmpht  We’ll see. Me thinks it’s purretty cool. The lights come on and off all by themselves. And there’s somethin’ in there that swooshes the water ‘round every once and a while all on it’s own too. We’ll have to ‘member to post updates along the way. But fur now, let’s just go finish brekky. That is after mommy gets your plate uncovered. And don’t ever turn mes plate over again, K?!!!

 

          You wasn’t eatin’ it, and I’s don’t want anythin’ bigger than us to smell it and come and eat us. 

 Dezi lays in mommys' lap for some loving

Ain’t nuffin’ comin’ to eat us Raena. Mommy won’t let it. We’ll be by to visit soon. We’re still waitin’ on the wheelchair batteries, so mommy’s extra slow. 

 

Do you daydream?

Do you ever just blurt out your thoughts?

Are you interested in seeing the progression of mommys’ AeroGarden? 

 

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

 Dezi getting mommy loving and petting.

     6 Days, baby, 6 days.

Me can’t wait. Me just luvs Christmas. And me luvs lookin’ at all da Christmas cards we’ve been getting. 

     Me too sweety.

 Raena checking out a box of Christmas gifts

          I’s luvs Christmas too, mommy.

     I’m glad you like Christmas Raena. What’s been your favorite thing so far?

          Da lights. I’s really like nommin’ da lights.

You’re not s‘posed to nom da lights Raena, you’re only s‘posed to look at ‘em. Dat doesn’t even count as a Christmas activity. (Dezi acts perturbed.)

          Mommy says I’s can pick anythin’ I’s want sissy. (Raena sits back and thinks a bit) I’s know!!! We won a Christmas Stockin’ from our furiends Zorro and Pixie from da Swiss Cats, and you said it could be allllll mines. I’s luvs it. And it’s soooooo cool; mines stocking came all da way from Switzerland.

Do you even know where Switzerland is Raena?

 Dezi and Raena laying on the Liberty cat tee

          (Raena shuffles her paws) Well, no, sissy. But I’s do know it’s really far away. Awnty Claire sent it speedy ship or else it never woulda got here befur Christmas. Oh, and you know what else I’s luvs sissy? We got a new ‘lectric blanky. And mommy said we didn’t have to wait fur Christmas to start usin’ it. Fank da cats, cuz it’s been really cold ‘round here. Y, Just this meownin’ it was 7 degrees F. But we were toasty warm all cuddled up together under da new ‘lectric blanky.

Yep Raena, we sure are blest. We furgot to ask ‘bout usin’ names, so we’ll just say a meowsy big Fank you to our ‘lectric blanky Angel. (Dezi purrs loudly and then peers at Raena) Don’t you have somethin’ you wanna say Raena?

          (Raena thinks a minute) Ummmm, well…Oh yeah, I’s do sissy. Fanky Fank ya’ dear Angel furiend. We luvs our new ‘lectric blanky. Mommy was so excited she furgot to take fotos. Now da camera batteries are dead and we gotta wait fur ’em to charge so we can take fotos. But you can trust me when I’s tell ya’, we are luvvin’ da snuggly warmth it emanates. Ya’ know sissy, we have da bestest furiends in da universe.

 Dezi lays on the Liberty cat tree

Yes Raena, we do. You know, mommy talked ‘bout how we made all these furiends yesfurday when she wrote da posty. We better wrap it up fur now. Mommy wants another cup of coffee and we need to finish eatin’ brekky. And there’s some gifts under da tree dat need investigatin’ befur Christmas. We hope ya’ll are stayin’ warm. Me also wants to fank all of you who are takin’ care of ferals in your area. Just a few more dreams and Christmas day will be here.

 

 

Are you ready fur Christmas?

Do you use electric blankets?

Do you have (put up) a Christmas stocking (for your furries)?

R-E-S-P-E-C-T

Hey, is anypawdy there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Can you believe it, twice in one week.

 Dezi sits on the arm of the chair

        Yeah Raena, don’t get too excited. Pushin’ me outta da way and runnin’ to da catputer to get there furst doesn’t mean you get to write da posty. 

 Raena bathes and plays on the floor

What do ya’ mean push you aside sissy? I’s didn’t push you anywhere, I’s just run faster than you.

          Dat’s debatable Raena. But our furiends didn’t come by to hear us arguing. 

Sure they did sissy. Don’t you ‘member mommy readin’ da comments to us, ‘bout how much our furiends enjoy our witty banter and me stickin’ mines tongue out at ya’?

Dezi and Raena on cat tree and Raena sticks her tongue outHere’s another look at dat foto.

 

          Witty Banter? Nopawdy said “witty banter” Raena. And do you even know what dat means? As fur da foto of you stickin’ your tongue out at me, me thinks they were all talkin’ ‘bout da whacky paw you were ‘bout to get form me.

Don’t be silly sissy. We Ragdolls don’t whacky paw. I’s knew you weren’t gonna whap me.

          Well you better start thinkin’ me might whap ya’ Raena, cuz here lately you’ve really been askin’ fur it. And mommy’s given me da okay to do it too.

Noooooo, she was just jokin’ sissy. Mommy wouldn’t let you hurt me. And besides, I’s know you luvs me.

 Dezi lays on the bed and looks into the camera

          Me does luv you Raena, and any whacky paw me would give ya’ would be done outta luv. (Dezi snickers, she knows humans love to say things like that) You need to learn some manners Raena. Ya’ know, respect fur your elders and all?

I’s do respect mines elders sissy. I’s didn’t bite or scratch anypawdy at da senior citizens home.

          Dat’s great Raena, but it’s not just them you need to respect. Anypawdy dat’s older than you is your elder. And cuz they’re older and have more knowledge and experience than you, you should show them some respect. Seein’ as how me’s older than you, and has lived here fur 7 years longer than you, means you should show me some respect. You can start by not botherin’ me when me’s in da pawdee box.

 Raena Selfie woth paw reaching out

I’s can’t bother you when you’re in da pawdee box anymore sissy. Uncle Pete, Timmy and da furmily just sent us a new pawdee box…with a lid.

          They sure did Raena, and me luvs it. It’s big and roomy and bestest yet, you can’t stick your grubby little paws over da side. Fank ya’ll sooooooooooooo much. Now, you just need to keep away from da door while me’s usin’ it.

 Dezi sits on the small perch with her fluffy tail flowing over the edge

Come on furiends,  just lookit dat fluffy tail. Don’t you wanna grab it?

 

I’s will try sissy, I’s will try. It’s just dat you back up to da door and let your floofy fluffy tail wave at me. It’s so temptin’ to just reach out and grab it. You know, it looks so much like dat feather toy mommy let’s us play with.

          Well no matter how temptin’ it may be, you just need to control yourself. As fur da feather toys, me will chat with mommy and no more feathers fur you.

Raena playing with wand toy

No More Feathers!!!? Dat’s not fair.

 Pet Parade Blog Hop Badge

          Fair or not Raena, dat’s just da way it’s gonna be. Now, let’s join up with Rascal and Rocco and their pawsum cohosts fur da weekly Pet Parade blog hop and take a mid meownin’ nap. We finished our Christmas card furinally and will be sendin’ it out this weekend. But ifin you’d like to take it now, here it is. We hope and purray everypawdy has a very Merry and Blest Christmas.

 Dezi and Raena wish everyone a Merry and Blest Christmas card

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