Chatting Cats: Playful Planning Banter

Hey everypawdy, it’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s know it ain’t Blest Sunday yet, but I’s sure do wanna fanky fank all of you fur your luvs and suppurrt. Ya’ know, it really warms this little kitty girls’ heart to have so many peeps care ‘bout me. Mommy was talkin’ to her counselor the other day ‘bout mine’s humble beginnings and how I’s had known nuffin’ but a stinky old cage till she came along and bailed me out. I’s don’t really like to think ‘bout all that anymore, cuz I’s livin’ the good life now. I’s got a luvvin’ mommy and the bestest big sisfur ever. Ya’ know, she’s been so nice to me lately, I’s started wonderin’ ifin somethin’ was up. Ya’ know, like ifin she was tryin’ to sell me off on the kittycats list or trade me in fur another model.

          RaenaBelle Mayce!!! Don’t be tellin’ peeps me’s tryin’ to get rid of you. You know that ain’t true. (Dezi mumbles under her breath) Besides, mommy would never let it happen. 

 

I’s didn’t say you did it sissy, just that I’s worried you might. You never let me jump on you without hissin’, till the other day. So, you can see why I’s might think somethin’ was up…Right? 

   

Dezi and RAena lay on cat tree and Dezi looks out door

 

 

 

          No, me’s been nice to you befur. Me’s always nice. Anyways, let’s meow ‘bout somethin’ else. Me’s so ready to see mr. Sunshine again, how ‘bout you? 

 

Yeah sissy, I’s getting’ tired of all the gray. Altho’ I’s did see a few squirrels the other day. Mommy says they’re gatherin’ up their winter supply of nuts. I’s say, ifin they’d just come a little closer, they wouldn’t have to worry ‘bout winter, they’d be on our plates fur dinner. MOL 

 

Dezi looks out door from cat tree while Raena lays under her

 

 

 

          Like mommy would ever let that happen Raena. Mommy won’t let us walk ‘round on the dirty ground. She fur sure ain’t lettin’ us get all dirty killin’ some squirrel. Hmmmpht  Can you ‘magine the bath we’d get after somethin’ like that?  

 

Oooooh Maybe we could have a bubble bath sissy. I’s saw that on tv the other night and it looked like so much fun. Bubbles were everywhere and the peeps were slippin’ and slidin’ all over the place. You know how much I’s luvs a good slide. 

 

Dezi lays on the cat tree

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, we all know how much you like to slide everywhere. Me thinks it’s only second to your tv watchin’. Me’s never known a kitty that liked to watch the boob tube as much as you. 

 

 

You can learn so much from tv sissy. 

 

Dezi wipes eyes atop cat tree Oh Me. That girl and her tv.

 

 

 

          Yeah, me isn’t so sure those are the kinds of things you wanna learn.

Well sissy, ifin I’s hadn’t been watchin’ tv I’s wouldn’t know how to throw you a pawsum birthday/gotchaday pawrty. I’s so x’cited I’s can’t hardly wait.

 

          Me too Raena. It is me’s pawrty. Hey, what band did you get to play at the pawrty?

   

 

 

It’s a surpurrise sissy. Ifin I’s told ya’ everythin’, it wouldn’t be as much fun. Don’t worry, you’re gonna luv ‘em. (Raena runs to the computer and posts an ad) I’s got everythin’ unner control. 

 

 

Band Ad for Dezi's party

 

 

 

          Okay Raena, me’s puttin’ a lot of trust in ya’, don’t let me down. 

 

I’s tellin’ ya’ sissy, don’t worry, I’s got this. Right now tho’, I’s could use a little nap, how ‘bout you? 

 

          Sounds good to me, Raena. Me can have sweet dreams of me’s upcomin’ pawrty.

Tell All Tuesday: Purrsonalize Your Christmas

Raena:  Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s got so much to tell ya’, I’s don’t even know where to start. 

 

 

Dezi and Raena lay together on the floor

 

 

          Dezi: Well Raena, it’s usually bestest to start at the beginnin’. But, You can be a bit long winded, so we’d purrobably be here furever ifin ya’ did that. Why don’t you start somewhere in the middle. (Dezi giggles and whispers under her breath) Somewhere in the middle, that’ll keep her busy fur a while tryin’ to decide what’s in the middle. MOL  (Dezi thnks a minute and then asks) Why don’t you tell me what you have planned fur me’s pawrty and the holidays? 

 

Dezi's Venetian Carnival Birthday party invite

 

 

 

Oh sissy, I’s can’t hardly wait fur your pawrty. It’s gonna be so much fun. We’ve had several furiends already RSVP. I’s gotta tell ya’, we’ve got some really gawjus furiends. We’ve been asked ifin mardi gras masks are okay to wear. And the answer is Yes, fur sure. We did a search fur free Venetian/Rio Carnival masks clip art and Mardi Gras mask clip art and got tons of ready to wear results. I’s even picked out a great mask with a cool headdress fur you to wear sissy. You know, cuz you’re the Birthday/Gotchaday girl.  

 

          That’s really sweet of you Raena. (Dezi whispers) Sheesh, now me feels bad fur puttin’ me’s paw in the middle of her noms. 

 

Raena sits on cat perch looking like a diva

 

 

 

Hey sissy, did you hear mommy yesfurday? You know when she said she’d actually missed hearin’ your squeaky mew outside the pawtty box room wantin’ her to come and clean it? You know, cuz you usin’ the pawtty box has been a little hit and miss fur the last few months.

 

          No Raena, me didn’t hear that. But we all know why me’s didn’t always use it now, don’t we?. Me’s tryin’ to be unnerstandin’ now that we know you might be actin’ like a pain cuz you’re actually in pain. 

 

You sure have been nice to me lately sissy. I’s luvs you so much. Hey, did you see the cool Christmas decorations we got the other day? I’s luvs Christmas. I’s wish we could have Christmas every day, don’t you? 

 

 

Dezi lays on scratcher with mouth open

 

 

 

          Me did see ‘em Raena. Did you hear what mommy said ‘bout that teeny tree? 

 

I’s did sissy, but surely she was just jokin’. she wouldn’t deprive us of the fun of knockin’ the decoration of the tree by usin’ that small tabletop one. Right?

 

          Me don’t know Raena, she might. Ya’ know, it’s actually kind’a cute. It comes with it’s own decorations and a star fur the tippy top. 

 

Yeah, it is kind’a cute. Did you see the princess crowns mommy got with our names on ‘em? I’s like those the bestest.

 

Personalized for you ornaments

 

 

 

          Sure nuff Raena. Mommy even got a memory ornament fur me’s sis Lexi. We’d never heard of Personalized Ornaments for You befur bein’ contacted by one of their peeps. They gave us a gift certificate so we could try out their website and personalize our very own ornaments. 

 

Raena checks out personalized ornaments for you

 

 

 

Yep sissy, mommy says they have lots of really cute ornament ideas; and the personalization just makes them more special. She also said their prices are extremely reasonable. And even better, their site and the ordering process was a breeze. And they ship really fast too. So, ifin you’re lookin’ fur some great purrsonalized ornaments to put on your tree or to send as gifts this year, you should really check ‘em out. I’s fur sure give Personalized Ornaments for You 4 paws up. 

 

Raena checks out the personalized for you ornaments

 

 

 

          Me too Raena. And me’s sure mommy gives ‘em a thumb up. They have some great ornaments that you can hang on those cool ornament stands and leave out year round. C’mon Raena, let’s go play.

Blest Sunday: How Blessings Work

Dezi:  MeOW  Welcome, welcome, it’s Blest Sunday, and are we ever Blest. Yeah, yeah, me knows it’s been a ruff week what with Raena’s health mews, the continued storms outside and all the other things that have come our way. But, ya’ wanna know how Blessings work?

          Raena:  Blessings don’t work sissy, they just are.

Me’s not meowin’ ‘bout that kind’a work Raena. Kittens!!! Sometimes, you’re so literal. Anyways, what me meant is that even bad things come with Blessings. Like, we hated hearin’ you have Entropion and gingivitis. But, we choose to see the Blessing, we furinally have answers and even better, it can be fixed. See, that’s how Blessings work. 

 

          I’s get it sissy. It’s lookin’ fur the good even tho’ what you might see furst is the bad. Ya’ know what else? I’s think you’ve been much nicer to me since you found out mine’s eyes be hurtin’. Y, You didn’t even hiss when I’s jumped on you this meownin’ at brekky. 

 

Dezi and Raena atop the liberty cat tree with Yeowww toy

 

 

 

Yeah well, don’t get used to it Raena. The minute you feel better, me’s gonna give you the whacky paw of instruction ifin you jump on me again. 

 

          Aaaaaaaaaw sissy, I’s know you don’t mean it. You know you luvs me.

 

Me does Raena, but haven’t you ever heard, spare the rod and spoil the child? Everypawdy needs a little discipline now and then. 

 

Animated thank you rose

 

          Whatever you meow sissy. I’s thought we were countin’ our Blessings, not meowin’ ‘bout rods and things spoilin’. I’s wanna say a meowsy big Fanky fank you to awnty Cindy, awnty Jeanne, awnty Sandra and awnty Juliea and Patzy fur the green papers to help me have the surgery I’s need. 

 

Thank You emoji

 

You’re right Raena, that’s a huge Blessing. And we’re so grateful. Me’s always told you that we have the bestest furiends in the universe. Meowin’ of, me’s wants to fank awnty Anonymous fur sendin’ me some green papers fur me’s Birthday. How’s the pawrty plannin’ goin’?  

 

 

Dezi's Venetian Carnival Birthday party invite

 

 

          It’s goin’ great sissy. Mommy’s helpin’ me and we made a little invite last night. I’s sure hope all our furiends send their masked fotos. I’s purromissed that we’d have a contest fur the bestest mask or costume. I’s think I’s might be just as x’cited ‘bout the pawrty as you are. Celebratin’ Birthdays and Gotchadays is celebratin’ the biggest Blessing a kitty or woofy can have.

You’re fur sure right ‘bout that Raena. The biggest Blessing in me’s life is mommy. Ya’ know, we need to wrap this up. Me’s got a jamboree to attend at Cat Scouts this week. But befur we go, we’d like to remind everypawdy to take a minute today and every day to Give Thanks fur the Blessings in your lives. There really is a Blessing inside every dark cloud, a rose among the thorns, sometimes we just have to look a little closer to see them. We’d also like to Fank you all fur bein’ Blessings in ours.

Chatting Cats: The Eyes Have It

Raena Goes To The V-E-T (Update)

Hey, Everypawdy, it’s me, RaenaBelle!!! Hey sissy, we’re home!!! Hurry mommy, get mine’s harness off. I’s wanna go tell sissy ‘bout mine’s visit with doctor stabby and grabby. (Raena jumps down from the stroller and heads down the hallway looking for Dezi. She makes a quick potty box detour and then paces through the house meowing and looking for Dezi.) Sissy? Sissy, where are you? Sissy, come out, I’s wanna tell ya’ what happened. (Raena walks over and jumps in mommy A’s lap and looks at her and meows) Mommy? Why won’t sissy come out? Where is she? (Raena jumps down and paces through the house meowing more persistantly this time.) Sissy!!! Sissy, I’s need to tell ya’ somethin’!!! 

 

Dezi lays on cat tree with mouth open and eyes shut

 

 

          (Dezi strolls down the hall and jumps on the cat tree) What’s all the yeowlin’ ‘bout? Ya’ come in yeowlin’ and wakin’ me up from me’s rainy day nap. Kittens!!! Your meowin’ like the house is on fire or somethin’. 

 

Raena sits pretty for the camera

 

 

 

The house is on fire too sissy? What should we do? Are we trained fur fires?

 

          (Dezi slaps her paw to her forehead) No Raena, the house ain’t on fire, it’s just a sayin’. (Dezi shakes her head) Never mind. What’s so ‘purrtant you had to wake me up. You stink like… 

 

Raena sits in stroller at vetI’s scared mommy. I’s wanna cuddle.

 

 

 

Well sissy, let me tell ya’. When we got there, all I’s could hear was woofies barkin’ and squealin’. The things they were barkin’. I’s think they tried to kill one of ‘em. Bless his heart. Then, we were sittin’ there mindin’ our own business and in walks the biggest woofie I’s ever seen. He ran right over and got all up in mine’s business. His human ‘pawrently believes like the peeps out here, like the law doesn’t apply to them. Cuz he didn’t even have on a collar much less a leash. He could’a eaten me alive befur his human could’a done anythin’. Hmmmpht What is it with those peeps? 

 

          Me doesn’t know Raena. But you’re so right. Every time me’s had to go see doctor stabby and grabby me’s almost been accosted. 

 

I’s can tell ya’, I’s would’a gone down whacky pawin’ cuz he would’a hurt mommy too since I’s was in her arms at the time. 

 

          Sure sounds like ya’ll were in the waitin’ room fur a long time Raena. Did you ever get into a room? 

 

Raena and mommy A at the vetYou always make me feel safe, mommy.

 

 

 

We were sissy. They weighed me when we walked in the door, but we had to wait fur elebenty billion 30 minutes befur we ever got a room of our own. Didn’t take long fur doctor stabby and grabby to show up then. He kept shinin’ a light in mines eyes and it hurted. Mommy’s a little bit furious, but she says that after 2 1/2 years of takin’ me in and complainin’ ‘bout mine’s eye issue, we furinally have an answer to what’s wrong. I’s hate that it made mommy cry tho’. She said she felt just horrible that I’s been in pain every day of mine’s life and she didn’t do more to find an answer sooner. I’s told her she shouldn’t feel bad, she did the bestest she could. 

 

          Well what’s wrong with ya’, Raena?  

 

Raena looks up at mommy while snuggling close at the vet Can we leave mommy? I’s don’t wanna wait fur doctor stabby and grabby.

 

 

 

Well sissy, I’s can’t say all the big words, so I’s told mommy that I’s would s’plain it kind’a like doctor stabby and grabby did and once we got the plan of action estimate, she could tell everypawdy. See, mine’s bottom eyelids turn in some. And there’s these tiny little fur hairs attached to ‘em that are s’posed to purrtect our eyes from stuffs flyin’ in ‘em. Cuz mine’s are turned in, those tiny little fur hairs are constantly scratchin’ and irritatin’ mines eyes. So, they’re constantly irritated and that’s why they’re always gunky and I’s sometimes close ‘em up and can’t see anythin’. 

 

          Oh Raena, me’s sorry. Me didn’t know. 

 

Raena looks down while snuggling with mommy at vetMaybe ifin I’s pout, mommy’ll take me home.

 

 

 

It’s okay sissy, nopawdy did and I’s couldn’t s’plain it. 

 

          So, now that they’ve figgered out what the purroblem is Raena, what are they gonna do ‘bout it?  

 

Raena sits on table at vetSurgery?!! I’s don’t wanna have surgery!!! I’s fur sure don’t want

your hands in mine’s mouth.

 

 

 

 

Well sissy, I’s gonna have to have laser surgery to make mine’s eyelids turn out right like they’re s’posed too. And, it seems I’s might have some gum issues too, so while I’s out of it fur mine’s eye surgery, doctor stabby and grabby’s gonna clean mine’s teethies and see what’s goin’ on in mine’s mouth. He said they’re gonna shave all the furs off mine’s eyes. Ifin I’s bein’ honest, I’s a little bit scared sissy. 

 

          Me is too Raena. Are they gonna make you stay in the hospital? 

 

Raena lays on the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

Nope sissy. Fanky fankfully fur mommy. She told ‘em she wasn’t leavin’ mine’s side at all. Doctor stabby and grabby said that was fine and then mumbled somethin’ ‘bout hopin’ the insurance covered it. Anyways, I’s’ll be comin’ home that afternoon. We have to be there at 6:30 the meownin’ of November 15th. So, I’s gonna have to plan your pawrty fur a time befur that.

 

          So you already have the ‘pointment huh Raena? 

 

Yep sissy. Seems once doctor stabby and grabby figgered out what’s wrong with me, it’s suddenly urgent that I’s have mine’s purrcedure. Altho’, mommy said she wishes we could do it tomorrow. She really feels bad that I’s been hurtin’ fur so long and she didn’t fix it. It’s gonna cost a couple hunnerd dollars. I’s don’t know where we’re gonna get it from, but I’s sure hope we do. I’s can’t even ‘magine mine’s eyes not hurtin’. That’s gonna be so pawsum. 

 

          Well Raena, we’ll have to ask our furiends ifin they’ll help us help you. Ifin not, maybe me can sell a kidney or somethin’. Guess we’ll have to post the estimate as soon as doctor stabby and grabby sends it to us.

 

Yeah sissy, he was too busy when we were there to write it up; doctor stabby and grabby two had the day off. But he purromissed to get it to us in a day or two. Fanky fankfully, he’s runnin’ a special on dentals right now and we do get a Service Cat discount. Mommy said t’ween your last ‘pointment and mine’s visit we’re already at our hunnerd dollar credit limit with him. So we have to pay fur mine’s purrcedure the day I’s have it done. Ifin anypawdy can help me get mine’s eyes fixed, you can donate to our paypal address at: lexi.dezi@yahoo.com. Or you can donate directly to doctor stabby and grabby’s office: Carter County Animal Hospital, Ardmore OK. (580)226-1001 (Dr. Cade Wilson). Our account is unner mommy’s name: Audra High. I’s sure would ‘purreciate it. And I’s could use your purrayers too.  

 

Dezi bows her head to pray

 

 

 

          Me will purray fur you Raena. Me wants you to be all better too. Who knows, that might have somethin’ to do with why you’re such a pest. Who knows what you’re gonna be like when you’re no longer in constant pain.

 

Raena sits on cat tree with her carnival mask onI’s tryin’ on masks fur sissy’s pawrty.

 

 

 

Well sissy, I’s thinkin’ we should have your Carnival Birthday/Gotchaday pawrty on Wednesday November 14th. There’s still time to put on your mask and send (email to: lexi.dezi@yahoo.com) us your foto to be included in the festivities. Ifin you’re havin’ trouble findin’ a mask, let us know. We want all our furiends to attend, so we’ll help ya’ any way we can.

 

          (Hours pass and find Raena sleeping off the day. This morning, Raena’s feeling lethargic and didn’t get up to eat breakfast. Dezi worriedly paces from the bedroom to the living room again and again, searching for Raena.) RaenaBelle? C’mon, get up, it’s time fur brekky. Me will let you jump on me as many times as you want. Just get up Raena, it’s time. 

 

(Raena opens her eyes, but doesn’t lift her head) I’s will sissy, just let me finish mine’s nap. 

 

          Purrlease keep Raena in your purrayers.

 

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