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.

          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.

Dear Santa, Dezi Here

Published on by Service Cats U.S.40 Comments

Meowww-lo Can you believe it? Christmas will be here in just 11 days. We can’t believe how quickly this year has flown by. Sis Raena got to post her furst letter to Santa on Monday. Mommy and me were so purroud of the thought she put into it. Mommy had taken her to da senior citizens home on Caturday fur our annual carol singin’, cheer spreadin’ visit. And guess what? Several of da peeps ‘membered me from years past, so mommy and me went back over there on Sunday afternoon. Da peeps just “ate” us up, whatever dat means. Me doesn’t know, but me knows they sure did enjoy our visit. Raena and me meowed ‘bout what fun we had there too. Mommy said da piano needed tunin’, but she made do. Anyways, today is mes day fur postin’ mes letter to Santa. Me sure hopes he reads our bloggy.

 Dezi lays on the Liberty cat tree

Dear Santa,

  Dezi here, me hopes ya’ll are doin’ well. It’s been a long and yet short year fur us here. Me guesses you know sis Lexi went to heaven, since she’s not on your list anymore. Me sure does miss her. Oh sis Raena’s okay, but they’ll never be another sis Lexi. And mes doesn’t always know how to be a great big sisfur like she was. Altho’, me doesn’t think me was as big a “stinker” as sis Raena is. Anyways, me’s been a good girly and helped mommy whenever she needed me too. Me’s also doin’ mes bestest to help mommy train sis Raena. And me should get some extra credit fur puttin’ up with all sis Raenas’ antics.

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

  You know, da truth is, me’s a very blest kitty. Mommy does everything she can to do da very bestest fur me and Raena. And we have some amazingly wonderful furiends who help us out when they can and we need it. Me has a safe, loving home and mommy who adores me. Me just celebrated mes 7th birthday, and got a brand new nip nanner, treats and noms. Me has all a kitty girl really needs, so me would really like to ask that you check your list fur all our furiends names and bring them their hearts desires.

 

  Me would also like to ask that you send loving adopters to all those sweet anipals living in shelters. Not all shelters are great places, but even those that are, still aren’t any place fur a sweet kitty or doggy to spend their life. We all want and need love. Without it, we’d wither up. Me was so happy to hear that several shelters emptied out last Christmas, so me’s asking fur you to do that again, but make it all of them this year.

 

  Me’s next request is fur those kitties that be even less fortunate than those in shelters, the strays and ferals. Mommy found a little ginger cat up town not long ago and called her Ginger. Sometimes mommy’s not da most creative thinker. Mommy was goin’ up town every night there fur a while to make sure li’l Ginger had something to eat at least once a day. But when it turned cold, li’l Ginger disappeared. We’re purretty worried about her, but we also worry about all the kitties living outside. They didn’t really choose that life, it was thrust upon them and now most of them are scared of peeps and untrusting. Ya’ can’t really blame ‘em tho’, humans haven’t always been kind to them.

 

 

   So fur Ginger and all those other poor kitties that are trying to survive out in the cold cruel world, me asks that you send them all loving caretakers to feed them and see to their needs. Me asks that you sprinkle some of that Christmas dust on them so they can learn to trust again, and get adopted into warm loving homes. Give those caretakers purrlenty of noms, and shelters and VET monies to care fur those kitties. Me also asks that you give those shelter peeps, rescue peeps and caretakers a boost of energy to continue the work they do.

 dw-dezi-gold-purple-christmas-print

  Well, guess that about covers it. Unless of course ifin you could have a chat with old man Winter and tell him to go away, or at least go easy on us. We just don’t like the cold. We’re sendin’ all of ya’ at the North Pole big hugs. We’ll write again next year. In the meantime, me’s got a nip nanner callin’ mes name.

Blest Sunday: It Couldn’t Get Any Better

Published on by Service Cats U.S.32 Comments

(Dezi runs to the living room where mommy sits at the computer waiting. Raena chases closely behind making her signature humming sound.)

 Dezi sits on arm of chair

Dezi: Sorry me’s late mommy. Sis Raena kept jumpin’ on me while me was tryin’ to take a bath.

       Raena: Oh Purrlease sissy, you swatted at me furst.

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

Dezi: You stuck your tongue out at me Raena. Dat’s not nice!!!

 Dezi bathing after breakfast

   Mommy A: Alright girls, that’s enough. Ya’ll don’t sound like the blest girls you are. And you know what today is, don’t you?

 Dezi and Raena laying on the Liberty cat tee

(Dezi and Raena meow in unison) It’s Blest Sunday mommy!!!

Me luvs Blest Sunday. It’s kinda turned into da day when we tell all our furiends how much we luv them, and how fankful we are to have them in our lives.

 Raena stands on cat scratcher and poses for the camera

       It is sissy and we do fur sure. But I’s got to thinkin’ dat maybe some of our furiends think we just say dat.? Dat maybe they hear it from us so offen they might be thinkin’ we’re just sayin’ it and don’t really mean it.? You know, sompawdy asked us why we called everypawdy gawjus, bootyful or handsum.

 Dezi close up while laying in mommys lap

Me worries dat sometimes our furiends might doubt us Raena, but then me thinks ‘bout it and me knows our furiends know dat we really mean what we say. We’ve only ever told da truth, so there’s no reason fur anypawdy to doubt us. As fur why we call everypawdy gawjus, bootyful or handsum, it’s cuz we think they are. When you see with eyes of luv then all you ever see is good and gawjusness. And we have da mostest pawsumest furiends in da universe.

       I’s totally agree sissy. And they’re real furiends. Did you hear ‘bout da awnty dat wrote mommy da email cuz she was worried ‘bout her and others getting’ scammed?

 Dezi with treats from Donna

 Fank you awnty Donna.

 

 

Yep Raena, they care ‘bout us, cuz we care ‘bout them. Dat’s a huge gigantor blessing. And awnty Donna knew how bad mommy felt when she fell on and broke our track toy; ‘specially since it was your favorite, so she sent us a new one.

 Raena tries to play with track from Donna

 Why don’t da ball move? (plastic’s still on)

 

 

Raena plays with track toy from Donna

There is goes. MeoWwwwwww

 

 

Raena plays with track toy from Donna

And catnip too. Fanky fank you awnty Donna.

 

 

       She sure did sissy, and a bag of treats/noms too. Fanky fank you sooooooooo much awnty Donna.

 

 

And then a couple days later, da UPS man showed up with this big box fur mommy. We know, cuz mommy checked and rechecked da address label. Inside was all kinds of yummies and goodies fur mommy. We don’t know who sent it, but they’ve fur sure got mommys number. There was a box of Ghirardelli chocolate with chocolate chips brownie mix inside. And how did they know da night she got cut up she couldn’t find any triple antibiotic cream? Well, we’ve got some now. And a honey cornbread mix, and cheater mac and cheese, and…well there was so many yummy and useful things inside dat me thought mommy would never stop cryin’.

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

       I’s not sure I’s know da difference ‘tween sad cries and happy cries, but mommy said this was da happiest of cries.

 

 

Yeah Raena, mes not sure how to tell da difference either, but me knows she was beside herself happy when she peered into dat box. And we all say a meowsy big Fank you to whoever sent it to us. They also included a bag of noms fur us. With da bestest mostest gawjus furiends in da universe and material blessings too……our blessing meter is overflowin’. Fank you all fur bein’ da bestest furiends ever.

 Dezi and Raena on the Liberty Tree looking at each other

       I’s second dat sissy, and so does mommy. We’ve been thinkin’ hard and we’re gonna be writin’ our letters to Santa tonight. We can’t wait.

Don’t go overboard Raena. We have been asked ifin we have an amazon wish list, so we’re postin’ da link. Purrlease don’t feel as tho’ you must get us anythin’, but fur those of you wonderin’, here it is. Dezi and RaenaBelles wish list. In da meantime, we’re joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies. Fank you all again and again.

 

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

Winter Is Here

Published on by Service Cats U.S.33 Comments

Hey is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Let me tell ya’ it has turned cooooooold here in da last few days. Cats and kittens, mouses and rats!!! I’s don’t like this thing called Winter. It can just pack up and go away fur all I’s care. We went to mommys doctors ‘pointment yesfurday, and everytime we got outta da car it was shiver me timbers time. Some of you are new here and aren’t furmiliar with our doctor day routine, so let me ‘splain. We go to da doctor furst and then we have to head to da next town over to go to da farmacy. And when we got there yesfurday mommy threw a fit. Okay, Not really a fit, but she was sad dat she had furgotten da camera. See, da town had decorated da street with these gigantic waving santas. Mommy said she would have luvved to get mines foto with da santas and da one reindeer in front of da bank.

 Raena in an icy frame

Anyways, we turned in mommys purrscription and then huddled up and strolled down da street to da bank. What a bummer trip dat was. None of da regular peeps were there, so I’s didn’t get any treats. Can you believe it? None of them had one treat fur a purretty little Southern Belle kitty girl. We got all froze over fur nuffin’. So we bundled back up and headed back down da street to da farmacy. They had mommys’ medicine and mines treat ready, so we could get goin’. They cooed and talked ‘bout how much I’s grown since they saw me last month, and sent us on our way. By then it was getting’ colder and darker. Da sun hadn’t shown at all yesfurday and so it got dark really early.

 Dezi in an icy winter frame

Anyways, ya’ know dat ‘lectric blanky I’s just learned ‘bout? Well it seems to have a short and isn’t workin’. Dat’s not a good thing, cuz sis Dezi says it’s gonna get colder befur it gets warm again. So, we stopped at da Dollar store to see ifin they had ‘lectric blankys and how much they might cost. They didn’t have any ‘lectric blankys at all. Nope, not one. Not even one in puke pink (which we hate, by da way). So we bundled up again and headed home. We got home just befur it got all dark outside. Sissy was happy to see us, but glad she had gotten to stay home where it was warm. ‘Specially after I’s told her ‘bout da treat situation. Mommy and me got all warmed up and then she fixed dinner fur me and sis Dezi and sat down to check emails.

 Raena a bit distorted

 It’s pawssible today’s also Blooper Furiday. Mommy says she doesn’t

‘member me lookin’ this way when she pushed da button. MOL

 

 

So there we were, all feelin’ toasty and warm when there came a loud knock at da door. We weren’t ‘spectin’ anything or anypawdy, so mommy flipped on da porch light and opened da door slowly. There stood a handsum young man at our door. Mommy always says God’s gonna have to send her a husband to knock on da door, or she’ll miss him. But this wasn’t God answerin’ dat purrayer. Da nice young man introduced himself and said he was a veteran on a mission. Well, let me tell ya’, ifin there’s one thing I’s learned since bein’ alive, is dat even with all da purroblems, we live in da greatest country on da planet. And one of da reasons our country be so great is all those service men, women and anipals who answered da call to purrtect and serve our country and keep all of us safe and secure da freedoms granted us by God and our fur fathers in da Constitution.

 Dezi and Raena with crying eagle saying thank you to Veterans

With tears in her eyes, mommy looked at da nice young man and said, “Thank you for your service.” And do you know what he told mommy? Well, besides your welcome.? He told mommy dat he’d been out since early yesfurday meownin’ and she was da furst purrson to say dat to him. Da tears really began to fall now and mommy ‘pawlogized to him fur all da disrespect he had encountered. He was tryin’ to raise money and get sponsors to donate so he could send care boxes to those soldiers who are still serving away from home. He gave mommy da stats on how many service men/women commit suicide cuz of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). And mommy continued to cry. Of course we had no money to give him, but we wished him well and will continue to purray fur him and all those serving our great country. We don’t know what has happened to this country we luvs so much dat in a whole day, mommy would be da only one to thank a service man fur his service. Soldiers don’t choose which orders they follow or what wars/battles they fight. Even ifin you don’t agree with a war or battle, You should still be grateful to those who fought it. After all, you didn’t have to and you slept soundly because they did.

       Well said sis Raena, well said.

       Let’s wrap it up fur today. We’re behind on our visitin’ and we’ve got some fotos mommy needs to get loaded on da catputer, cuz we all received some blessings this week dat we’ll be tellin’ everypawdy ‘bout on Sunday. And we’ve got those letters to Santa to write too.
