Mommy it’s so purretty today, can we go fur a stroll later?
Dezi it’s time to write your blog post. It’s finally Friday dear, and yes, we’ll go for a stroll later.
Oh mommy today be da last day on da 3 day quote challenge. Me has a really good one fur today.
You do? Well you need to tell everyone the rules of the challenge first honey.
Okay. Me also wants to thank da Menagerie Mom from Four Legged Furballs. Here’s da rules:
1. Post fur 3 consecutive days
2. Choose and share 1 to 3 quotes each day
3. Challenge 3 bloggers each day
So there ya’ have it. As we have dun fur da last 2 days, we’s leavin’ da challenge open fur anypawdy who wuld like to do it. Just follow da rules and start quotin’.
Yesfurday when mommy and me were out and ‘bout after hers doctors pointment we were talkin’ ‘bout all da quotes one uses in a day. Lots of us use quotes in our normal everyday language dat we don’t give a second though ‘bout. We don’t know when they started or who actually coined them. You know da kind, mommys are famous fur sayin’ to their daughters, “Beauty is in da eye of da beholder.” And then there’s da one, “if ______________ jumped off a bridge would you want to as well?” Anyways, you get da idea. Mommy uses a lot of them. Since we began writin’ mommy’s had to be very careful ‘bout “givin’ credit where credit’s due.” Anyways, me’s quote fur today is:
“Adopt Don’t Shop”
We searched high and low fur da name of da purrson respawnsible fur this quote and came up empty. It was furst used as a campaign slogan to get more peeps to adopt shelter and rescue animals stead of buyin’ from breeders. Today, it’s almost as pawpular as sum of those old conversational quotes we talked ‘bout earlier. So dat wraps up our 3 day quote challenge. This has been fun.
Me has to go now, you heard mommy purromise to take me fur a stroll later, so me has to get ready. As we do every Furiday, we’s joinin’ Rascal and Rocco fur da Pet Parade Blog Hop.
Do you have a purrticular quote you use a lot in your everyday conversations?
Well it’s day 2 of da 3 day quote challenge, so we have another insightful posty fur ya’. Course it’s only insightful ifin you think so, but me’s gunna try. We just luv da Golden Rule dat we posted ‘bout yesfurday and we’s not sure we can top it. But furst let me give ya’ da rules of da challenge.
1. Post fur 3 consectutive days
2. Choose and share 1 to 3 quotes each day
3. Challenge 3 additional bloggers each day.
And we’s sure we missed it sumwhere but surely ya’ need to thank and link back to da blogger who challenged you. So fanks again Menagerie Mom of Four Legged Furballs. And we’s leavin’ da challenge open to whoever wuld like to post. Just follow da rules and have fun.
So now on wiff our quote. Mommy used to watch this show called Designing Women. Sum of ya’ might be old enuff to member it. Anyways, there was an episode dat contained a quote dat mommy luvved. So much so she still members it today. It was sed by da character Minnie who was a guest fur dat episode. And afur anypawdy gets their panties in a wad, we wrote it just like it was sed; no catifyin’ of da quote. Da quote is:
We ain’t what we should be, We ain’t what we gonna be, but at least we ain’t what we was.”
Mommy sez dat be very powerful when ya’ fink ‘bout it. Everything and being on this planet is in a constant state of change; hopefully fur da better. So dat’s our quote fur today. We’s got mommy’s monthly doctors pointment today, so weez’ll be round to visit as soon as we can. Da weather has been really nice and warm, but of course it turned cold last night, so weez’ll be bundlin’ up to stay warm. Mommy sez me has to go now so we can get ready. We hope you’re all stayin’ warm and safe and havin’ a gweat day.
Do you think you’re changin’ fur da better each day? Ifin not, what kuld you do to change dat?
“Class, today me wants to tell you ‘bout a little ole sayin’ dat shuld rule your life.”
Sorry furiends, me knows you didn’t come by here fur a lecture. So let me ‘splain meself here. We were given da 3 day quote challenge by our dear furiends over at da 4 legged furballs aka The Menagerie Mom. Ifin ya’ haven’t met ‘em yet you shuld head on over when ya’ finish here and check ‘em out. Now don’t you be leavin’ just yet tho’, me hasn’t finished ‘splainin’ meself. As sissy, mommy and me discussed what our quote fur today wuld be, it started soundin’ more like a lecture than a discussion. Mommy feels very strongly ‘bout quite a few things, and how to treat others is one of ‘em.
Now da rules of da challenge are as follows:
1. Post fur 3 consecutive days
2. Choose and share one or 3 quotes everyday
3. Challenge 3 additional bloggers each day
So me’s quote fur today is:
Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.
You may know it as Da Golden Rule. This little quote goes all da way back to Bible times and can be found in Matthew 7:12. Dat dusn’t guarantee dat others are always gunna be nice to you, but it also dusn’t mean you shuld stoop to their level. Da bestest thing you can do in a situation where you can’t be nice to sumpawdy is to just say and do nuffin’. Remove youself from their purresence and avoid them when pawssible. Me is gunna leave this challenge open to all of ya’. Me knows quite a few of ya’ have already taken da challenge, so ifin you haven’t yet and want to, consider yourself challenged. Ifin yous already dun it and wuld like to again, purrlease do.
Me wuld like to give you all a little sis Lexi update cuz a lot of ya’ have been askin’. She has kept down her noms fur a kupple of days now. We are so very happy fur dat. She seems to be feelin’ a bit better as well. Mommy started feedin’ her less food at a time, but more frequent meals. Weez not sure ifin she ate too much at one time or ifin she got a bad can of noms. Eever is pawssible, and at this point we just purray da throw ups are over. Of course we wuld purreciate yous continued purrayers. Me wuld also like to ask you to purray fur a furiend of ours. Timmy tomcat’s brofur Buddy Budd isn’t eatin’ like he shuld. Uncle Pete’s been tryin’ all da normal tips and tricks and has even added an appetite stimulant. Buddy just turned 16, so he needs to eat to keep his muscles and body goin’. So ifin you can spare a few purrayers fur Buddy Budd and his furmily we know they wuld purreciate it.
Well dat’s all me has fur today, so “Class Dismissed.” MOL
Do you strive to treat others the way you want to be treated?
(Dezi dances and whacks her paw in the air at the dangling, swinging prey in front of her, and then mommy yells to her that it’s time to write her blog post.)
Well da weekend’s over and it’s da start of a new week. Member me told you ‘bout this pawsum new toy me was playin’ wiff? Well mommy finally got da video ready and up on YouTube so me kuld tell ya’ all ‘bout it. This isn’t a sponsored posty. Mommy actually bought us da toy. A while back me had to go to da VET and one of our pawsum awnties sent da money to help get me there. Well there was a few green papers left and so mommy asked ifin she kuld use it to buy us this toy. We had seen it fur years, but mommy didn’t think we wuld play wiff it and she didn’t really get da concept, so she just never got us one. And then while visitin’ a furiends blog one day we actually saw it in use. They was meowin’ ‘bout how much they luvved it and me meowed to mommy dat me wanted one. Da oppurr-tunity finally arose to get us our very own Cat Dancer toy and she did. Mommy saved it fur Christmas, so she didn’t even look at it till then.
Da day after Christmas mommy finally took it out of da package and…”Oh no” she sed. It had an adhesive backin’ dat needed to be put sumwhere so we kuld play wiff it. And accordin’ to da package, da sticky stuff was really sticky. Once it was attached, it wasn’t gunna be goin’ anywhere. Well as ya’ know we rent, so it went right back into da packagin’ and mommy sed she was gunna have to think ‘bout just where this kuld go. Our furiends had sent us such pawsum gifts fur Christmas dat we didn’t even give it another thought. As you all know me’s been feelin’ a little cooped up lately and down right bored; so mommy once again pulled out da package and started tryin’ to find da right place to put it.
Mommy decided da cat tree wuld be da purrfect place fur it, but as you know our cat trees are covered in carpet. And you humans all know dat sticky stuffs dusn’t stick to carpet very well. But mommy kept readin’ da part ‘bout how they use extra strong sticky stuffs and decided to call da company and ask ifin it wuld adhere to carpet. Da nice lady we spoke to sed she didn’t know. Nopawdy had ever asked dat question afur. Then she told mommy to try it and ifin it didn’t stick to send her an email and she wuld send us another sticky paw so we kuld put it sumwhere else. So mommy peeled da backin’ off and found da right place on da cat tree and applied da paw. Me immediately went crazy purrlayin’ wiff it. Mommy hurried to get da camera so she kuld get a few shots and a video and me found da sticky paw.
Uh Oh!!! Mommy was sure this was all fixin’ to be a mess. Me is notorious fur chewin’ thru da strings and lastics attached to danglin’ toys. This Cat Dancer has a wire attachin’ it to da paw, so there’s no chewin’ thru dat. Stead, ifin me was gunna liberate me’s new toy me was gunna have to get da sticky paw off da tree. Guess what? When they say they use extra sticky sticky stuffs, they mean it. Dat paw ain’t goin’ anywhere. So mommy sent an email to da nice lady telllin’ her ‘bout our findin’s and included a foto of moi playin wiff it. And do you know what happened next? She sent us a little care package wiff sum really cool goodies and a new paw. So now mommy can move our Cat Dancer to another area and make it lower too. Altho’ me can reach it from da ground, sis Lexi can’t without losin’ her balance, so mommy secretly wished she had put it a little lower, and now she can. Fank you nice Cat Dancer lady, we luv all da new toys, specially our new Cat Dancer.
Ifin ya’ can’t see da video, clickhereto watch on YouTube.
Now me knows this sounds a lot like a review, but me just had to tell you ‘bout da Cat Dancer in case you be thinkin’ like mommy did. Cuz me guarantees your kitty will play with it. And it’s not dat spensive. Fur less than $5.00 (it’s on sale right now at Chewy fur $1.99) you can keep your kitty entertained fur hours. Okay maybe not hours at a time, but hey, weez cats, we half to get in our beauty rest. And ifin you have your own demolition crew, they won’t be demolishin’ this toy fur sure. Me’s gotta go play now.
Oh Meow mommy, these toys look like lots of fun.
Do you or your kitties or doggies demolish toys?
Do you or your kitties or doggies like playing with danglin’ toys?
