Tell All Tuesday: Alien Attack

Hey everypawdy, it’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s comin’ to ya’ live from the Three Belles Ranch, where we’re under attack by loud noises, big trucks, echoing metal bins and lots of strange men. Least I’s think they’re men. I’s see them come and go all day long from this big blue box. Mommy says it’s an outside pawtty box fur humans, but I’s don’t know any humans that use the pawtty outside. Do you? These men could very well be aliens of some kind. 

 

Raena sits pretty on the cat tree

 

 

 

          Raena, there’s no such things as aliens.   

 

Dezi looks out window from cat tree

 

 

 

Sure there is sissy. Awnty Ellen and Sammy are always talkin’ ‘bout this doctor who purrson that travels to other worlds in a box that looks a lot like that blue one in our pawrkin’ lot. 

 

          Me’s purretty sure that’s just a television show Raena. A figment of somepawdy’s over active ‘magination. You know, like a lot of the things you watch. (Suddenly there’s a big boom outside that shakes the apartment. Dezi and Raena both run up the cat tree to look out the window.)  

 

Ya’ reckon that big truck might’ve hit somethin’ sissy? He sure does look close to the cars out there. Ifin they hit our car, mommy’s gonna be soooooo mad. It might not be workin’ right these days but it’s the only car we have. 

 

Raena sits on the cat tree looking at the door

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me’s thinkin’ mommy wouldn’t mind ifin they were to drop that big trailer thingy on our car. She says insurance would buy us a new one ifin that happened. But, me doesn’t think that’s very likely. (the door bell rings and mommy A makes her way around boxes to see who it is. She cracks the door open with Dezi sitting on the cat tree beside her.) Hisssssssssssssss  

 

Who is it sissy? (Hearing the manager’s voice, Raena responds) Hisssssssssssss  Kittens, What does she want?. 

 

Dezi lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

          Looks like it’s startin’ Raena. It’s the new application. Mommy’s fixin’ to be really busy what with packin’ and tryin’ to get all that stuff ready fur a new lease signin’ and filin’ those complaints to make sure they don’t deny us that new lease.  

 

 

Raena sits on cat tree looking pretty

 

 

 

Guess we’ll have to entertain ourselves fur a bit sissy. Wanna go play? I’s see a couple of boxes that look like fun. 

 

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

Blest Sunday: Cuddles Snuggles And Blessings

MeOW-llo everypawdy, it’s time fur Blest Sunday. We so luv Blest Sundays. It gives us a chance to Give Fanks fur all our Blessings and to Fank those who have been Blessings to us. We believe no matter what may be goin’ on ‘round ya’, or even with ya’, ifin you’re still breathin’ then you’re Blest.  

 

Dezi and Raena lay on cat tree with Blest Sunday banner

 

 

 

          That’s so true sissy. Mommy says Blessings happen all ‘round us, we just need to take the time to see ‘em. Like, we may not enjoy the cold days and nights of winter, but lots of plants need that change in tempurrture in order to grow and bloom. There’s other reasons winter is a Blessing, I’s just purrfur the Blessin’ of summer. MOL  

 

Me too Raena, me too. Ya’ know all the cold means more snuggle time with mommy. Me can snuggle anytime, but durin’ the summer it can get a little warm all cuddled up together. That never happens in the winter. 

 

Dezi lays in chair

 

 

 

          Ain’t that the truth. I’s didn’t even wanna get up this meownin’, did you sissy?  

 

Me could’a enjoyed a little more cuddles, but mommy had to use the human pawtty box after you woke her up Raena.   

 

          What? Why are you lookin’ at me that way? I’s couldn’t help it, mine’s toesies were cold. 

 

Raena sleeps beside mommy A on the bed

 

 

 

So you couldn’t figger out another way to warm ‘em than stickin’ ‘em onto mommy?  

 

          I’s figgered that would be the quickest way to warm up sissy. Mommy had all that cuddle warmth goin’ on ya’ know?  

 

Yep, till you stuck your cold paw toesies on her. Did you see the look on her face Raena? Me thinks she might’ve thought she was dreamin’ or somethin’. Least she didn’t blame me fur it. Me’s purretty sure it was your name she was mumblin’ to stop. MOL   

 

Dezi lays in front of fireplace on floor

 

 

 

          She wouldn’t tell me no sissy, you know mommy luvs me too much to say no.  

 

Really Raena? Just what do you think mommy’s sayin’ when she tells you not to get on the counters?   

 

          Huh? She’s never said that sissy, she just tells me to be careful ifin I’s do decide to get up there. 

  

Raena!!! You need to let mommy clean your ears, cuz you’re livin’ in dream world ifin you think mommy would be okay with you on the kitchen counters. (Dezi shakes her head)  Girl…That ain’t even selective hearin’, that’s just makin’ stuffs up. 

 

          (Raena jumps into mommy A’s lap) Maybe the rules are different fur you sissy. (Raena purrs loudly and looks up at mommy A) See how mommy be lookin’ at me? There ain’t no way she could ever tell me no. 

 

Raena gets lap loving

 

 

 

Hmmmmpht  We’ll see Raena. Wait’ll the next time you go bitin’ cords or the tap or try to jump on the counter. Mommy says luv knows how to say no when yes would be bad fur ya’. Anyways, we need to get on with our Blessing Fank yous. Furstly, we wanna fank all of you fur your luv, suppurrt and purrayers durin’ these tryin’ times we’re goin’ thru.  

 

          We sure do sissy. Did you lissen to the email mommy read to us from our sweet furiends uncle Greg from Feline Café and awnty Christine from Spike the Scottish Black Cat? We were so touched, mommy had leaky eyes. We wanna say a meowsy big Fanky fank you fur carin’ ‘bout us. And, we wanna say another meowsy big Fanky fank you to awnty Susan fur the green papers. We are so ‘purreciative fur all your suppurrt and luvs.  

 

Yeah Raena, we have the most amazin’ and pawsumest furiends in the universe. Sometimes me’s just amazed at how pawsum they truly are. You are all one of the biggest Blessings we Give Thanks fur every day. Each night befur we go to sleep, we purray and ask God to keep you all and to Bless you in all you do. 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. 

 

Dezi selfie in lap

 

 

 

          Oh sissy, we luvs our furiends so much. We worry ‘bout ya’ll in times of trouble and rejoice with ya’ll in times of joy. And we couldn’t ‘magine any other way. I’s gonna link us up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies sissy. Then, I’s think I’s might wanna take a little nap, how ‘bout you?  

 

Yep Raena, sounds like a plan. 

 

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

Feline Friday: Make A Change For One Pet

MeOW-llo Everypawdy, it’s furinally Furiday. WooHooooooo  Me has no idea why that’s so x’citin’, but it is. Don’t furget, our Service Cat Furidays will return in February; and we’ll be pickin’ up where we left off meowin’ ‘bout Feline Nutrition. So, ifin ya’ have any questions, purrlease let us know. Your questions don’t have to be limited to nutrition. We will continue the series throughout the year.  

 

Dezi lays on chair arm - selfie

 

 

 

          I’s can’t wait sissy. I’s do luvs our Service Cat postys.    

 

Yep, me too Raena. Hey, did you know yesfurday was National Change a Pet’s Life Day? We don’t post on Fursdays, but me thought we could post ‘bout it today. Our lives were fur sure changed when mommy adopted us. Me knows sis Lexi used to meow the same thing. Me reckons ifin not fur mommy, lots of kitties wouldn’t have made it.

 

Dezi lays on chair arm and Raena on chair back

 

 

 

          Really sissy? I’s knew she saved us, but I’s didn’t know she saved others.  

 

Yeah Raena, mommy used to foster kitties who had lost their furry mommies. Y, Sis Lexi was one of those kitties. Me was kind’a one of those kitties. Even tho’ me was a few weeks old when me met mommy, me wouldn’t have lived ifin she hadn’t saved me and brought me home to live with her and sis Lexi. Those early days sure were scary. But with mommy’s luv and care, me thrived and grew into the big bootyful kitty girly you see today. 

 

          Me too sissy. Mommy’s always sayin’ she’d luvs to be able to save all the kitties who be homeless and scared.  

 

Raena lays atop the cat tree looking over-raspberry

 

 

 

Oh Kittens!!! Ifin mommy had her way Raena, me would have lots of fursibs. But, that takes a lot of time and money which we don’t have. The truth of the matter is that no one purrson can save all the animals in need. But, everypawdy can do somethin’ and make a difference in at least one pet’s life. Adoptin’ is just one of the many ways one can help make that change.   

 

          So true sissy. Peeps who wanna make a change in a pet’s life can volunteer and become fosters, dog walkers, cage cleaners, social media boosters, socialization aides, transport drivers, photographers (you don’t have to be a pro), and so much more.  

 

They can also donate stuffs that shelters and rescues always need like green papers, cleanin’ supplies, food, litter, towels, toys, medical care and tons more. To find out what the shelters and rescues in you area are in need of, just give ‘em a call or check out their website.  

 

Dezi looks at camera while sitting on cat scratcher

 

 

 

          Don’t furget ‘bout the ferals and strays sissy. They need help too. Offen times colonies are looked after by just one purrson tryin’ to purrvide fur them out of their own pawckets.  

 

You’re right Raena. So, while no one purrson can change the lives of every pet on the planet, it only takes one purrson to change the life of one pet. Fur that animal, it might mean the difference t’ween life and death. It did fur me, fur sis Lexi, fur her brofur Lucky, and even fur you RaenaBelle.  

 

Raena hunches on the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

          Sure ‘nuff sissy. I’s think I’s wanna go give mommy some extra fanky fank you cuddles. I’s gonna link us up with Comedy Plus fur Feline Furiday and then give mommy some luvvins.   

 

Dezi sits pretty on the chair arm

 

 

 

You do that Raena. Me’s just gonna finish off me’s brekky furst. Are you gonna finish what’s in your plate?    

 

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

Chatting Cats: A New Normal

Hey everypawdy it’s me, RaenaBelle, from mine’s purrch atop the cat tree at the Three Belles Ranch. I’s can’t see much out of the window. Covered with mini blinds and curtains, open only in the middle, mine’s view to the outside world is skewed. Mommy says it’s too cold to have the door open and she’s tryin’ to purr-pare a noise barrier fur when the construction starts. She says it’s our new normal, least fur the time bein’.

 

Raena lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

          Doesn’t it seem strange with the door closed Raena? Mommy says peeps all over the world only open their doors when they’re enterin’ or leavin’ their homes. 

 

I’s know sissy. It does seem strange. Fur as long as I’s can ‘member, we’ve always opened our door every meownin’ befur brekky. This is fur sure gonna take some gettin’ used too. Don’t you think? I’s mean, you know how we kitties are with closed doors. 

 

          Yeah Raena, we can no longer see peeps comin’ up the walk. Now we have to wait on ‘em to knock on the door or ring the doorbell. Did you know the doorbell used to scare me? 

 

Dezi lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

Really sissy? Why?  

 

          Me’s not sure Raena; maybe cuz it’s so loud and comes outta nowhere. 

 

Hmmmmmm I’s like the doorbell. When it rings, it usually means we’re gettin’ somethin’. Like the other day when the Fedex man rang and left our noms.  

 

Raena lays atop the cat tree

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me doesn’t mind it ringin’ when we get somethin’. ‘Course, it doesn’t really bother me any more. Mommy always tells us how proud she is of us when we don’t run, so me just decided to stop bein’ scared of it. Me likes it when mommy’s proud of us.  

 

I’s do too sissy. Ya’ know, I’s thinkin’ we should get some treats fur not bein’ ‘fraid. What do you think? 

   

          Me’s not sure mommy thinks that’s treat worthy Raena. Besides, you didn’t eat your treats the last three times mommy gave ‘em to ya’.   

 

Dezi lays on cat scratcher

 

 

 

I’s don’t like that kind anymore sissy. I’s wanted somethin’ different.   

 

          Like what Raena? That’s the fourth treat you’ve turned your nose up at this year. And it’s only been this year fur a few weeks now.  

 

Purrlease…Like you haven’t done the same thing sissy. How many treats have you refused to eat lately. 

 

Raena sits in wheelchair

 

 

 

          Eh, Me would rather have a bit of good nip or vine than some crunchy piece of fake chicken. 

 

Me too. Even better, I’s like playin’ with mommy. Meowin’ of, ya’ reckon she’ll have time to play with us today? I’s been workin’ on some new moves to try out with the cat dancer.   

 

          You’ve been workin’ on some new moves huh Raena? You know mommy isn’t gonna let go so you can drag it off to your hidin’ spot, right?  

 

Ya’ never know sissy, she might lose her grip. All it takes is one time and it’s mines. MOL   

 

Dezi lays stretched out on scratcher

 

 

 

          Sure Raena, you keep thinkin’ that. (Dezi yawns and stretches) Me could use a nice nap. Why don’t you go play with mommy and let me sleep.  

 

Fine sissy, ifin you wanna sleep your life away, then go ahead. I’s got places to go and peeps to meet and…  

 

          Raena, you ain’t goin’ anywhere. You can be so dramatic. Seriously, you’ve gotta quit watchin’ so much tv.  

 

Raena sits in wheelchair showing profile

 

 

 

Maybe someday sissy, but not today. The Vikings are on today, and I’s luvs the Vikings. Sissy? Sissy? Hmmmmpht Guess she’s already asleep. Oh well, a nap does sound like a purretty good idea. 

 

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