Lexi and Meez Get Up Close and Personal

Well Lexi didn’t eat dinner noms dat nite and she didn’t come bak up tu da frunt room fur da rest of da nite. Da nex fing meez new mommy wuz puttin’ me in da krate and takin’ meez tu da bedroom. Da krate wuz very big, me had meez very own litter box, water bowl and bed inside. Mommy held meez and prayed over me and den put meez bak in and rite beside da bed. Den  me heard hissin’ and a low growl coming frum da bed. And meez heard mommy say, “It’s okay Lexi, just lay down and go to sleep. She will be your sisfur and your helper.” Den der wuz a loud thud on da top of da krate and da hissin’ and growlin’ stopped, and it got all qiet and meez went tu sleep. Da nex meownin mommy took meez krate tu da frunt again and meez got out and went tu da kitchen wif her. Den me heard it, da growlin’ and hissin’ again. Meez turned ’round and der wuz da giant green eyed sisfur Lexi again. Me wuz ready dis time and meez turned tu da side and puffed up as big az me kuld and hissed and growled bak. And she ran skweemin’ frum da room, again. Mommy fixed da yummy noms and den brought Lexi bak up frunt and put her on da table wif her plate. Den wuz meez turn. Mommy took me and sat down wif meez and fed me da yummy noms frum da bottle and den gave me sum in a plate. Me wuz sniffin’ at da plate of noms and suddenly der wuz da giant green eyed Lexi. She wuz sniffin’ at meez and den she took her big ole paw and pulled it up in da air and me turned tu da side and puffed up and hissed. She ran skweemin again, and me ran after her as fast as me little legs wuld go. Mommy wuz runnin’ after us tu and callin’ tu bof of us. Of course she caught me and took meez bak up frunt. We sat down and she sed, “It will be okay sweet one just give her a little time. I know she is goin’ tu luv you.” So me curled up in mommy’s lap and went tu sleep.

Later dat day while me wuz playin’ mommy picked me up and took me tu da bak tu a small room which me later learned wuz da pawdy box room fur big girls. Der wuz Lexi layin’ in da sink and growlin’ a low rumble. Mommy put meez rite in frunt of her while rubbing Lexi’s head. So meez stardid growlin tu. And of all fings, mommy stardid laughin’ and sed, “Girls that’s ’nuff. I’m tu old fur dis and so we all need to get along. We all live here now. Lexi, this is your sisfur Deztinee and Dezi, this is your sisfur Lexi.” And den she rubbed meez cheeks and ears and chin and wif da same hand did da same tu Lexi. Mommy did dis a foo times and all da growlin’ and hissin’ had stopped. And den mommy and meez went bak tu da frunt. It took a bit longer fur sis Lexi and meez tu become da best of furiends like we are tuday, but da hissin’ and growlin’ wuz purretty much over.(Til da nex time)

Dezi’z Start in Life

Okay now you know how Lexi came tu liv wif mommy so iz time tu tell you how I came tu liv wif both of dem. Mommy and Lexi had just lost a wunnerful service kitty and beluved son and brudder. Lexi by dis time wuz 10 years old and some of da fings she had tu du fur mommy she kuldn’t du alone so mommy needed tu get anudder service kitty. Mommy had alweddy decided she wuld get a working kitty and be thankful fur it, but she wuldn’t give her heart tu da kitty cuz she didn’t want it tu get broken again. 

Now a ways up da road der wuz a Ragdoll owner hoo wuz very inexperienced and hoo wusn’t supposed tu breed her kitty. But she wanted tu make some Christmas money so she bred her malnourished seal point queen to a beautiful flame point tommy boy. The result wuz a litter of 11 tiny sick kittens. A few weeks later she advertised da kittens and somepawdy dat saw da state of us kittens reported her tu da authorities and we were taken tu a kill shelter wif no VET on staff. Kitties dat kant eat on der own die. Da shelter wuz told dat we were 6 weeks old so dey put us in a cage and gave us a bowl of kibble, a bowl of water and a litter box. I had been da last kitty born of da 11 and da breeder had told da authorities dat we all had worms so she had used some over da counter wormer on us 3 days in a row and now we all had da runny run runs.

A little later a nice lady came in and looked at all of us and cooed at us and den took somefin’ out of her bag and talked intu it. It seemed like furever but finally anudder lady came in and talked tu da first nice lady and den left. Da first nice lady came over and opened da cage door and put all of us in a basket and took us tu anudder room. Oh my, der wuz da second nice lady again. She wuz sittin’ in da floor Da first nice lady put da basket down and tipped it over and we all came tumblin’ out. (tu be continued) Til da nex time

Lexi Grows Intu a Feisty Kitten

So Lexi came to live with mommy who was a foster mommy fur kitty’s without mommy’s. Two weeks in one of da kitty’s went to heaven. She had suffered brain damage due to da mommy bein’ dead befur she was born and bein’ deprived of oxygen. Lexi, (whose name at dat time was Lana), was just going to be another in a long line of kitty’s dat mommy raised and den found good homes fur. From da beginnin’ tho’ Lexi always wanted to be held and luvved more than anything else. Even when it was time to eat she would rather snuggle with mommy. (mommy didn’t know it but Lexi was stealin’ mommy’s heart). When Lexi and her brofur Cade (the only other kitty to survive their harrowin’ birth) was old ’nuff, mommy took them to da adoption fair. Cade luvved it and he got adopted dat first time. He went to live with a wunnerful family. But Lexi hated it!! She didn’t like all da people and lil’ humans pawin’ at her. So when they returned home, Lexi told da resident cats she didn’t want to go and live anywhere else. Devon (the oldest resident cat) said, “dat’s da way it is kid. Mommy gives you da best start ever and then sends you off to a wunnerful furever home.” Lexi meowed bak to him, ” I’z wanna stay here with you and Lucky (mommy’s other service kitty at da time). I’z want this to be minez furever home and mommy to be minez.” Devon just shrugged and told her dat wasn’t gonna happen and laid down to take a catnap. Bein’ so upset and blaming Devon and Lucky fur da reason she couldn’t stay with mommy she attacked them bof with claws and teefies and pulled out fur and drew blood. Both da boys ran straight to mommy and she cleaned them all up includin’ Lexi; and then sat down wif Lexi to have a talk about her future. Devon said to her as he ran off, “Now you’ve done it. You in trubble now.” Mommy held Lexi and looked at her and said, “What am I gonna do with you lil’ one? You can’t go to a new home actin’ like this,” and mommy cried. Mommy then called da rescue her was with and told them dat Lexi was fightin’ and drawin’ blood so she couldn’t let her be adopted. Da kitty’s could only hear mommy’s side of da call, but dey heard her say, “Absolutely Not!!!!! I raised her from birth and I can’t kill her. She can live with me and the boys, they know to avoid her,” and she hung up da fone. Then she went and piicked up Lexi (den Lana) and said to her, ” Sweetheart you are gonna live with me and the boys furever. I’m going to love you furever and from dis day forward your name will be Laramie Alexandra and we will call you ‘Lexi’. you’re gonna have to get along with the boys tho. And you will learn to be a service cat fur me.”

Lexi’s start in life

Me’s heard this story many times but lots of you haven’t so me’s decided to tell how Lexi and meez came to be with our mommy.

It was a warm spring day in April of 1999. An Egyptian Mau breeder had unknowingly left da back door ajar. A very pregnant queen quickly darted out da door and into da green grass of da back yard. Havin’ never been outside she was curious and wandered around da yard a bit, sniffing and smelling all da new scents. Then she heard a sound dat frightened her. And she ran and climbed over the fence into da neighbors yard. Suddenly a big dog came runnin’ toward her. Bein’ so pregnant she couldn’t run very fast and befur she knew it, da dog had her in his mouth. He began to shake her violently and she cried out in vain. As he shook her back and forth her body convulsed and she began to give birth. One kitten thrown across the yard and slammin’ into da ground. A second kitten thrown into da wooden fence and dropped to da ground. A third and final kitten thrown into da air and landin’ on a rock. And den da kittens felt warmth.  And da smells were different but they didn’t know what had happened or what was goin’ on. Just as quickly da smells changed again and then da air was cold and da kittens began to shake. Suddenly da smells were sweet and da kittens were bein’ warmed and they felt safe. They started to cry out; their tummy’s was hurtin’ and then a warm liquid was in da first kittens mouth. It began tu suckle until it’s tummy stopped hurting and den it slept. They had made their way to mommy and everypawdys lives were about to change.
