Chatting Cats: A Mewsy Tuesday

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle, comin’ to ya’ live from the chaotic Three Belles Ranch. Let me tell ya’, there’s stuffs everywhere. Our canopied cot disappeared into a box last night. Sissy and me were watchin’ to make sure it went in the keep pile. We might not use it very offen, but it’s ours and we might want to some day. I’s better not see any of our nip nanners goin’ into a box. That would be a travesty.

          What do you know ‘bout travesties Raena? 

 

I’s asked the lady in the box (Alexa <Echo Dot>) sissy and she said it was the purrfect word. Sometimes she can be helpful, just not so much when she starts talkin’ outta the blue at 3 in the meownin’.   

 

Raena lays on tent cot selfie

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me will never unnerstand why she just blurts out things sometimes. Did you hear mommy yellin’ at her the other day?   

 

When the lady said “I’s lissenin’” sissy?   

 

          Yep Raena, mommy hates that drop in mode. Mommy says nopawdy should be droppin’ in on us, so she doesn’t unnerstand why the lady would need to be lissenin’. The furst time she told her to stop. When it happened again a few minutes later, mommy was yellin’ at her and askin’ why she was lissenin’ and who was lissenin’.  

 

Dezi looks dow in curiosity from atop cat tree

 

 

 

It’s kind’a funny how the lady shut up after that, huh sissy? Bet she won’t lissen in any more, least not fur a while.  

 

          Let’s hope so Raena. 

 

I’s haven’t seen any of those aliens ‘round fur a few days sissy. Ya’ reckon they went back to their home? 

 

Raena sits on cat tree house in front of window

 

 

 

          Raena, they’re workers, not aliens. Mommy says they took the week off.  

 

That seems kind’a silly to me. Last week it was fureezin’ cold ‘round here, but this week is like Spring. It was actually 71° here yesfurday. 

 

          Don’t worry Raena, that won’t last. The temps are on the decline all week. It’s winter time in the south, that means ya’ never know what you’re gonna get. 

 

Uh, Sissy, I’s thought that was kind’a normal ‘round here no matter what time of year it is?.  

 

          Well yeah Raena, that’s true. Ya’ know, normally me would be askin’ mommy to take us out fur a stroll. But, you’ve been hoggin’ the stroller every wakin’ hour of every day.

I’s just makin’ sure I’s ready and that mommy doesn’t furget to take me with her. You know, all these boxes might be fun, but it’s also a little worrisome. You know us kitties don’t like change.  

 

Raena lays sleeping in the Gen7 stroller

 

 

 

          Me knows what you mean Raena. But, me’s purretty sure mommy won’t furget us. Me’s done this befur ya’ know?. It might not have been me’s most favorite thing in the world, but mommy never furgot ‘bout tryin’ to keep me and sis Lexi comfy and happy. Me has no doubts she’ll do the same fur you and me.

 

Well that’s good to know sissy. Ya’ know, I’s thinkin’ we should write a little mini series on movin’ and remodelin’ the ranch with kitties. After all, we’re more accustomed to chaos than most kitties and yet we still find all of this a little distressing.  

 

Raena lays on boxes in hallway

 

 

 

          Me agrees Raena. Another of your plans that aren’t so bad. We also need to start thinkin’ ‘bout what we’re gonna do fur mommy fur Valentine’s day. It’ll be here befur ya’ know it. 

 

You mean our handsum Persian furiend Valentine has a day all to hims self that we’re s’posed to gift to mommy? 

 

          Uh No Raena, me thinks it’s purrobably the other way ‘round. Me’s purretty sure he got his name from the holiday. Anyways, let’s go put our heads together and see what we can come up with.

Okay sissy, I’s luvs head butts and nose touches.

Blest Sunday: The Blessings of Friendship

Dezi and Raena lay on cat tree with Blest Sunday banner

 

MeOW-llo furiends, it’s one of our favorite days of the week, Blest Sunday. Let me tell ya’, with all the crazies ‘round here this week, we’re fur sure feelin’ Blest. Ya’ might ‘member that earlier this week we got new windows put in our ‘pawrtment. Lots of ya’ thought they’d make things warmer. We’d sure like to hope so, but like most things ‘round here, they’re the cheapest they could find.  No double panes here. MOL

 

Raena looks out new windows from cat tree

 

 

 

          Hmmmmpht  And how are we s’posed to look out those things sissy? ‘Stead of one solid pane, we now have a bunch of little squares. It’s not like each square has it’s own action. Nooooooo, the action gets cut into pieces now. 

 

Dezi looks down in curiosity from atop cat tree

 

 

 

It’s winter time Raena, what action are you even meowin’ ‘bout? We haven’t seen a squirrel or a bird in so long, me thinks they’re all hold up and waitin’ fur spring to return. 

 

Raena looks out window from cat tree

 

 

 

          Yeah, but I’s was watchin’ the aliens come and go from their ship (porta potty). Ya’ gotta keep an eye on ‘em ya’ know?   

 

Seriously Raena, they’re not aliens, they’re just workers.  

 

          That’s what they want you to think sissy. And then when ya’ let your guard down, they swoop in and snatch ya’. Don’t worry tho’, I’s will purrtect ya’.  

 

Dezi stoic profile sitting on chair arm

 

 

 

Oh Meow, me can sleep much better now that me knows you’re gonna purrtect us. (Dezi shakes her head and rolls her eyes) The mighty RaenaBelle, Purrtector of all. MOL  

 

          Are you laffin’ at me sissy? Cuz you know I’s not ‘fraid of anythin’, unlike some kitty girl who shall remain nameless. (fake cough cough) Sissy.  

 

Dezi and Raena have a spat at top of cat tree

 

 

 

Me’s not even gonna dignify that with an answer Raena. Besides, this is Blest Sunday, not fight with your sisfur Sunday. We are Blest that no kitty escaped durin’ the window exchange, and it was over befur mommy froze. Kittens, Once those windows were removed, it got really chilly in here. Meowin’ of chilly, the little space heater we used in the bedroom and bathroom broke the other day. The vent in the bathroom doesn’t work, so that room is like a freezer in the winter and a sauna in the summer. Fanks to awnty Cindy fur our new space heater, we can get some warmth in there again. 

 

Raena checks out the new space heater from CindyY, This sure is cute.

 

 

 

          Sure nuff sissy. And let me tell ya’, that little thing can put off some heat.

That’s the truth Raena. As always, our greatest Blessing this week is all of our furiends. We are so fankful fur each and every one. We purray you all will be unnerstandin’ and patient with us over the next few weeks. Mommy has to get busy and get our things packed up as bestest she can. That means we won’t have a lot of time to spend visitin’ with ya’ll. Rest assured, we might not be able to get by, but you will all be in our thoughts and purrayers.

          Yep sissy, every night befur we go to sleep and every meownin’ befur we start our day, we Give Fanky fanks to God fur each of you and ask Him to Bless and keep you. That’s somethin’ that will never change, no matter what. I’s gonna link us up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies and then go see ifin mommy needs any help. You can make your own Kitten Bowl selfies by clickin’ here.

 

Dezi bows her head to pray

 

 

 

As we do each week, we’d like to remind you to take a minute today and every day to Give Thanks fur the Blessings in your lives. Fank you all fur bein’ Blessings in ours. We luv each of you very much.

Chatting Cats: Remembering A Snow Fall

MeOWwwww  RaenaBelle, did you see the snow yesfurday? Me thought we might not get any since it was stormin’ and rainin’. But it was so cold the raindrops turned to snow drops mid air. 

 

Dezi looks out window from cat tree

 

 

 

          Really sissy? The cold can make rain turn to snow?  

 

Raena sits pretty on the cat tree

 

 

 

What? Uh…sure it can Raena, didn’t you see it?  

 

          No, I’s was too busy snugglin’ with mommy. Is it still snowin’? Do ya’ think mommy will let us go out and play in it? 

 

Raena gets lap loving

 

 

 

Nah, Fankfully the snow’s stopped fur now and the sun’s come out. Mr. Sun ain’t doin’ anythin’ to warm us up, but at least he’s makin’ the snow melt. The weather guessers had furcasted 8” of snow plus an inch of ice. Fankfully, they were wrong as usual. As fur playin’ in it, let me tell ya’, it’s not as fun as it might sound Raena. Me ‘members me’s furst time in the snow. A long time ago, me thought me just had to go out and see it. So, mommy wheeled us outside and me accidentally pushed the joystick on the wheelchair furward and we fell off the sidewalk and right into that cold white stuffs. Me couldn’t get in the house fast enuff. Me’s sis Lexi laffed at me furever ‘bout that. 

 

Dezi lays on cat scratcherSee the bottom of that box behind me? Mommy says

it’s our new scratcher lounger.

 

 

 

          Really sissy? You made mommy fall into the snow? 

  

Not on purr-puss Raena, it was an accident. Trust me, that was the last thing me wanted to do. (Dezi goes back to eating her breakfast to distract her from the memory of falling in the snow)

  

Dezi eats her freeze dried cat food

 

 

 

          What did it feel like sissy? Was it soft?  

 

Can’t you see me’s eatin’? (Dezi thinks back to that day when she was just a small kitten who ended up in the snow with mommy A and the wheelchair falling on top of herTo be honest Raena, me doesn’t ‘member that much ‘bout it. Me just ‘members it was cold and me wanted to go back inside where it was toasty warm and safe. Me feels so bad fur the kitties that have to live out in all that cold. 

 

          I’s do too sissy. I’s so wish every kitty could have a happy and luvvin’ furever like we do. It’s a new year and I’s gonna purray that more kitties find homes than ever befur.  (Raena jumps up on the back of mommy A’s chair and begins to take a mid morning bath) 

 

Raena bathes atop the chair back

 

 

 

That’s a good idea Raena. Me will join ya’. Meowin’ of the new year, we’re gonna be pickin’ up where we left off with our Service Cat Furiday posty’s startin’ February 1st. So, we’d like to remind ya’ to send us your questions and article suggestions. You can do so via our Contact us page or sendin’ us an email at: lexi.dezi@yahoo.com. We’ll be delvin’ deeper into Nutrition and the foods we kitties do/should eat, as well as takin’ a look at the food/feed available on the market. We hope you’ll join us.  

 

          I’s fur sure can’t wait sissy. I’s been doin’ lots of research to get ready. I’s even heard mommy sayin’ we were gonna be tastin’ some new foodables so we can meow the truth. I’s gonna go link us up with Comedy Plus fur Feline Furidays. Will you play with me afterwards?

Chatting Cats: Preparing For Raena’s Surgery

Hey everypawdy, it’s me, RaenaBelle!!! Sorry I’s screamin’, but I’s can’t hear mine’s self think over the rumblin’ thunder. But, you’ll be happy to know, sis Dezi be hangin’ with mommy and me. Okay, so maybe she’s pacin’ the floor a bit, but at least she hasn’t made a bee line fur UTB (under the bed). (Raena looks around the room from her perch on the back of mommy’s chair just as a loud, long thunder clap rolls by.) Uh, sissy, where you’d go? C’mon sissy, you know there’s nuffin’ to be ‘fraid of. 

Raena's profile looking curiously atop the cat tree

 

 

Dezi lays on cat tree

 

 

          Me’s not afraid Raena, me just needed to check on somethin’. Me thought me saw a monster head unner the bed.  (Dezi saunters back to the living room)

 

Hmmmpht  Maybe it was the slobber monster. Oh wait, that’s you, you’re the slobber monster. I’s can’t believe you soaked mommy and me with your purr slobbers this meownin’. We were sleepin’ so peacefully when you woke us up slobberin’ all over the place. Yuck!!! 

 

Dezi lays on scratcher and looks back over her shoulder

 

 

 

          Ah, What’s a little luv slobber t’ween sisfurs, right Raena? Besides, mommy needed to get up anyways. 

 

Luvs slobber? That’s what we’re callin’ it now? (Raena shakes her head) Purrlease, I’s would purrfur you keep your slobber to yourself. Anyways…

 

 

Flexible e-collar

 

 

          Whatever. Are you ready fur tomorrow Raena? Me saw your new pink collar that mommy got fur you to wear. 

 

 

Flexible e-collar

 

Yeah, I’s not wearin’ that thing sissy. Anyways, mommy said it was a just in case collar. She said I’s may not even need it. 

 

          True Raena, but that’s only ifin you can keep your paws away from your eyes. We all know You’re not gonna be able to do that.

 

Raena scratcher behind her ear atop the cat tree

 

 

We don’t all know that sissy. Guess we’ll just have to wait and see. As fur bein’ ready, I’s guess I’s as ready as any kitty can be, considerin’. Ya’ know, I’s don’t zactly know what’s gonna happen. All I’s know is that we won’t be gettin’ any sleep cuddles tonight, no late night snacks and we have to be at doctor stabby and grabby’s place by 8:30 in the meownin’. I’s can feel mommy’s tension growin’, but I’s don’t really unnerstand why. 

 

Dezi lays on cat tree looking out door

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me can feel it too. Me knows she’s worried cuz you didn’t do so well with the anesthesia durin’ your spay day. Fankfully, we have lots of furiends that’ll be purrayin’ fur you to come thru surgery just fine and have a speedy and full recovery. 

 

Raena lays atop the cat tree looking over-raspberry

 

 

I’s so ‘purreciate all the luvs, suppurrt and purrayers our furiends are sendin’ sissy. They’re the bestest. Hey, ya’ wanna go play? I’s might not feel like playin’ tomorrow. 

 

          Sure Raena, me will play with you today. But, be nice. No jumpin’ on me, okay?    

 

Raena bathes atop the liberty cat tree with her tongue out

 

 

 

Of course sissy, I’s won’t jump on you. (Raena meows while crossing her paws behind her back) By the way, Happy Birthday Dezi, I’s luvs you. Furiends, don’t furget to send us your fotos fur sissy’s Carnival pawrty on November 14th.
