Chatting Cats: Mewsy Musical Wednesday

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s comin’ to ya’ live from the Three Belles Ranch. Yep, that’s right, our ranch has a name. I’s been doin’ some research and seems ranches have a name and a logo they call a brand. But, it seems the only ones who wear this brand are the cows. We don’t have any cows. 

 

Dezi lays on chair arm and Raena on chair back

 

 

 

          RaenaBelle, what in the world are you meowin’ ‘bout? Why would you be meowin’ ‘bout cows? You and this ranch. (Dezi shakes head)  We’re not gettin’ cows so you can have your ranch. The only cow me wants to see is the one on me’s plate at dinner time.  

 

You’re no fun sissy. I’s was actually thinkin’ ‘bout askin’ the jolly man in red fur a couple and maybe even a bull. I’s saw it on tv, peeps pay money to ride a bull. Ifin we had one, we could sell rides.  

 

Dezi lays on arm of chair squinting

 

 

 

          Raena, peeps aren’t gonna pay us to ride a bull. Besides, it’d cost a lot more than we could make to feed him. This is purrobably your worst plan ever. Back to the plannin’ board fur you.  

 

Raena sits on cat scratcher

 

 

 

 

Hmmmmpht  Well, I’s thought it was a good idea sissy. Anyways, we don’t really have time fur bulls right now. It’s almost Christmas and we haven’t sent out our Christmas cards yet. We’ve really got to get mommy movin’ in the right direction.  

 

Dezi lays on chair arm and Raena stands on chair back

 

 

 

          That we do Raena. We have been havin’ a little fun helpin’ mommy make some recordings. Last year we got requests fur mommy to record some country songs and a few gospel ones too. Now that she has teethies again and peeps can unnerstand what she’s sayin’, she’s been hard at work to find the music to make these recordings. 

 

Oh sissy, I’s just luvs it when mommy sings. And we’re such good helpers. 

 

          (Dezi meows sarcasticallyMe’s sure mommy agrees Raena. You keep standin’ on her shoulders and head buntin’ her.  

 

Raena looks down from atop cat tree

 

 

 

What ‘bout you sissy? You keep pawin’ at her and stickin’ your face in hers fur kisses. I’s purretty sure she can’t kiss you and sing at the same time.  

 

          Me can’t help me’s self Raena. Me just luvs mommy so much. Mommy says in spite of all our help, she should have the recordings finished by the end of the week.   

 

What does she mean in spite of our help, sissy? I’s don’t think that’s actually a compliment. 

 

          Sure it is Raena, mommy luvs it when we help her.  

 

Raena peeks over edge of top of cat tree

 

 

 

(Raena sees something outside and runs to the cat tree to investigate)  Look sissy, a squirrel!!! How many does that make now? 

 

Dezi lays on chair arm - selfie

 

 

 

          Who knows Raena, it could be the same squirrel we keep seein’ over and over again. At this point he should have enuff nuts stored up to last fur 3 winters.  

 

Where do ya’ think his home is sissy? Do you think he has a family? 

  

Profile of Dezi laying on the arm of chair

 

 

 

          How should me know Raena. He doesn’t talk to me any more than he talks to you. Ya’ know, you mentioned the man in red earlier. You know we need to write our letters?. The cat scouts are gonna be takin’ a trip to the North Pole to visit Santa’s workshop soon. Me was thinkin’ you could tag along and we could give him our letters while we’re there?   

 

Really sissy? You’d let me come with ya’ll? I’s would luvs that. I’s don’t know why you won’t let me join, I’s think we’d have so much fun.  

 

           Maybe some day Raena. In the meantime, we should ask mommy to get us some new outfits fur the trip.   

 

 

 

 

Y, Look’it who’s makin’ the big plans now, sissy. I’s luvs shoppin’. Let’s get outta the door and get ready. We hope you enjoyed hearin’ mommy’s songs today. We’ll post more later this week.

Tell All Tuesday: Your Pet’s Oral Health Is Important #ChewyInfluencer

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. We’re so behind it ain’t even funny. But, we’re tryin’ to get caught up on everythin’ and make plans fur the future. You know, I’s luvs makin’ plans. 

 

Dezi and Raena look out window from cat tree

 

 

 

          Like you luv hoggin’ the mommy heat at night Raena? Cuz you did it again last night. Me nearly froze while you were all splayed out next to mommy.   

 

Raenalays pretty on the cat tree

 

 

 

Hmmmpht  What mommy heat sissy? Didn’t you hear her chatterin’? I’s mean, she may not have any teethies, but she can still chatter. Besides, it’s not all mine’s fault. Mommy was so cold she kept scoopin’ me closer and closer and stealin’ all mine’s fur heat. I’s didn’t mind tho’, I’s luvs snugglin’ with mommy.   

 

Dezi lays in chair

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me did see that. She even tried to steal me’s fur heat. But her legs were shakin’ so bad me vibrated right off. Me thinks it’s time fur the cozy ‘lectric blanky.   

 

Oooooh Yeah, I’s luvs the cozy ‘lectric blanky sissy. But it can’t take the place of a good cuddle with mommy. 

 

          You’re such a kiss up Raena. 

 

Raena lays in lap with mouth openSmell mine’s breath mommy. Does it smell nice?

 

 

 

 

Well, least mine’s breath is smellin’ better. Which reminds me, we need to tell everypawdy ‘bout this great supplement we’ve been usin’ called VetriScience Perio Support fur cats and dogs. As most of ya’ may ‘member, I’s had to get mine’s teethies cleaned recently when I’s got mine’s eyes fixed. Mommy says she luvs me no matter what, but that mine’s breath had lost that sweet kitten smell. And, at only 2 1/2 years old she was a bit disappointed that I’s already had plaque build up and needed a cleanin’ in the furst place. So, when we saw that Chewy was offurin’ a product to help with our oral health, we pounced on it. 

 

Perio Support pet supplement

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, oral health is very ‘purrtant. And after all that mommy’s been thru with her own teethies the last couple of years and havin’ sis Lexi who lost most of her teethies by the time she was 5, mommy’s very serious ‘bout takin’ care of ours. Let’s see what Chewy has to say ‘bout the Perio Support.

Perio Support pet supplement

 

 

 

Mommy always hates products/supplements that get sprinkled over our food. Mostly cuz we’re really picky. So, when she opened the jar of Perio Support, she was a little nervous ‘bout whether we’d eat it or not. You’ll notice the description says it’s “aromatic”, and it is that fur sure. Mind you, it doesn’t stink, but it fur sure has a smell. And ifin a human can smell it, you know us kitties and woofies can smell it. One usually assumes a smell also means it has a flavor. But, mommy took the chance and sprinkled a bit over our noms and then added water as usual. What happened next was a pleasant surpurrise…we both ate our noms like nuffin’ had changed. Mommy isn’t brave enuff to taste it and we’re not meowin’ ifin it has a taste, but either way, ifin it makes it passed us picky girls, it’ll most likely make it passed your finicky eater. I’s gives it 3 paws up.

          Me too Raena. The VetriScience Perio Support is a 4.2 ounce bottle fur $15.00. We’ve not been usin’ it long enuff to see real results, but ifin it works as described, it’ll be worth the money. Mommy likes to split supplements t’ween our meals so they’ll all look and taste the same. Less chance of us turnin’ our noses up and not gettin’ what we need. As Raena meowed, we both ate our noms as ifin nuffin’ had changed, so mommy gives it a thumb up as well. She’s reservin’ the other thumb till she sees whether or not it actually works.  

 

 

Disclaimer: This is a sponsored post. We received the Perio Support in exchange for our honest opinion. As always, we tell it like we see it. We only bring products we use or have tried and believe would be of interest to you, our readers and friends.

I’s sure hope it does sissy. I’s don’t wanna have another dental cleanin’ fur a while. Chewy has lots of great purroducts fur the whole family.

But don’t worry, you can always skip, cancel or delay anytime. And, Chewy customer service peeps are available 24/7 every day of the year. I’s sure hope somepawdy takes them a nice Christmas dinner. Let’s wrap this up sissy, we’ve got lots of things to do and lots of furiends to see.

Blest Sunday: The Blessing Train Is On The Move

MeOW  RaenaBelle, quit jumpin’ on me. It’s time fur our Blest Sunday posty, and kittens is me ever x’cited. Did ya’ see? Our Blessing Train is gettin’ longer. We’ve had several furiends hop on board and add their boxcar to ours. Me hopes lots more will join in the Blessing Train fun. 

 

Dezi sits atop the cat tree while Raena sits on the small perch

 

 

 

 

          Me too, sissy. There’s purrlenty of box cars and lots of track left. I’s would luvs to see our Train go ‘round the world and back again, wouldn’t you?

 

 

The Blessing Train

 

 

 

Yep Raena, that would be purretty cool. We’ll tell ya’ how to join in a minute, but furst, let’s take a look at who hopped on this past week. (In no purrticular order x’cept how the fotos saved to our computer) 

 

Canadian Cats Boxcar

 

 

 

Our long time furiends from the Canadian Cats, Shoko, Tyebe and Budd jumped on the tracks and hooked up their boxcar. We’re so Blest to have ya’ll and fanks fur joinin’ in. Ya’ know, Tyebe and Budd are fairly new members of Fort Meezer and Budd be a handsum tabby. They keep awnty Jean and uncle Bill on their toes. Hearts of gold they have and they’re all a bit cheeky in their own ways. MOL We’re so happy and Blest to call ya’ll furiends. 

 

          I’s just luvs them sissy. 

 

You luv everypawdy Raena.  

 

Feline Cafe boxcar

 

 

 

          I’s do sissy. But that’s a good thing, right? Anyways, next up is our sweet furiends from the Feline Café, Scooby, Opie, Zeke, Marigold and their daddy (uncle) Greg. Aren’t they gawjus? What an amazin’ little family they are. And just the sweetest cats and peep. Truer furiends you’ll never meet. Whether loungin’ ‘round the house or playin’ in their catio, we doubt there’s ever a dull moment at their place. We’re so glad ya’ll hopped on and hooked up. We’re so Blest to call ya’ll furiends. 

 

Valentine Boxcar

 

 

 

That we are, Raena, that we are. The last kit to hop onboard this week is the sweetest black Persian of the Blogosphere, Valentine from Noir Kitty Mews. Which reminds me of a Blessing we received this week. Fank you Val and awnty Kerry fur the Christmas gifts. Raena stuck her nose in the bag, but mommy snatched it away and told her not till Christmas. That Valentine ain’t just a handsum face tho’, he’s got a heart big as Texas and purrsonality too. We’re so Blest to call ya’ll furiends.  

 

Raena sits on cat tree with gift from Val and KerryFanky fank you Valentine and awnty Kerry.

 

 

 

          Sissy, we really are Blest with the bestest furiends in the universe. You know, true furiends know your flaws and luvs you anyways. Now that’s a Blessing. We are so Blest to have each other. And that’s our Blessing this week, Luvs. We know it sounds kind’a silly cuz everypawdy knows you have to have money to pay fur things you need like food and homes and cars and stuffs, but we truly believe that Luvs is the most ‘purrtant thing. 

 

Dezi n Raena check our Christmas gifts from Valentine and KerrySuch purretty wrapping’s we’ll hate to tear them up…NOT!!! Fank you.

 

 

 

Yep Raena, we do. Studies have been done that show humans can’t truly survive completely alone. And while peeps may try to say we kitties are solitary creatures, we thrive when we have the luv of a good purrson. We know that sometimes it comes off as ifin we’re purrfect and always get along. And that you’re doin’ somethin’ wrong ifin your kitties aren’t doin’ the same thing. But, we posted a couple of fotos the other day of us havin’ a “disagreement”. Mommy says in her eyes we are purrfect, and even when we have these minor spats, it’s all worth it when she sees us sharin’ a moment like the one below. We’re not really purrfect, but cuz mommy only sees us with eyes of luv, then to her, we are. 

 

Dezi sits on cat tree looking back at Raena on the ledgeHavin’ a disagreement.

 

 

 

 

Dezi and Raena touch noses on chair

Luv wins out.

 

 

 

          And cuz of the luvs she has fur us, we in turn luvs each other, right sissy?  

  

Red Box CarSave this foto and decorate it for yourself.

 

 

 

Yes Raena, you’re right. You can be a pest sometimes, but me luvs you anyways. Without luv, where would we be? We don’t wanna know, and we know ya’ll don’t either.  Now, let’s tell ya’ how to join the Blessing train fur yourself. We’ve had a few of you ask fur better instructions, so we’ll try. Ifin ya’ need more help, just send us an email and we’ll do what we can to get you linked up.

Chatting Cats: Cat Themed Gift Guide On A Budget

MeOW  Brrrrrrrrrr  Kittens Has it ever turned cold here. RaenaBelle, you need to learn to share the cuddles. You were hoggin’ all the mommy warmth last night and me nearly froze me’s pantaloons off.  

 

Dezi sits on cat tree house looking out window and Raena sits on cat tree ledge

 

 

 

          Pantaloons? What pantaloons, sissy? Do you even have pantaloons? Do I’s have pantaloons? 

 

Me’s bloomers, Raena. And yes, you have ‘em too. 

 

Raena licks paw while sitting on cat tree

 

 

 

          Oh, bloomers. Well, why didn’t you just meow that sissy? I’s thought I’s was gonna have to add pantaloons to mine’s list of wants.   

 

List of wants? What list of wants Raena?

  

          Oh you know sissy, the one I’s been makin’ while we’ve been shoppin’ fur our Gift Guide.  

 

Dezi sits atop cat tree looking down

 

 

 

Raena, you’re not s’posed to be shoppin’ fur yourself. We’re s’posed to be pickin’ out things that would make a great gift ideas fur others. 

 

          I’s was sissy. But mommy says the bestest gift you can get fur somepawdy is the gift you’d want fur yourself. 

 

Dezi lays on chair arm beside mommy A

 

 

 

(Dezi rolls her eyes and shakes her head)  Well Raena, meowin’ of shoppin’, we’ve got our Gift Guide to get out today. We wanted to include somethin’ fur everypawdy, but on a budget. After all, who knows more ‘bout stretchin’ a dollar than us?   

 

Raena lays atop cat tree looking down

 

 

 

 

          Ain’t that the truth sissy. What do ya’ say we start with Gifts fur kitty?  

 

Sounds good to me Raena. With innernet shoppin’ in the palm of your hands, choices are only limited by your pawcket book. One of the furst places we go too when lookin’ fur a good deal is ebay. Now, ifin you’ve got time and patience you might wanna try your luck at the bidding wars fur your deal; but, we purrfur the buy it now option. We know fur sure how much we’re payin’ and we don’t have to worry ‘bout someone stealin’ it out from unner us in the last 2 seconds. We like to shop with sellers who have a rating of 95% and up. We also luv free shippin’. Who doesn’t luv somethin’ free, right? So, let’s take a look at some of the pawsum deals you can get on a budget. 

 

Dezi enjoying a silvervine stickOh the vine is fine…

 

 

 

1.  How’s ‘bout a baggie of silvervine? This relative of catnip is much more potent and is well received by even cats who aren’t affected by regular nip. At $3.75 and free shippin’, this would thrill almost any cat on Christmas meownin’.    

 

Raena carries the crinkle ball from the Kong Incline cat scratcher

2.  Are you a kitty who luvs a good crinkle ball  ($3.99 for 12)?  

 

3.  Or maybe you need your very own tunnel  ($8.95)? This is 4 feet of fun that can be collapsed down when the peeps have company and need the floor back. 

 

4.   Here’s somethin’ we haven’t tried, but think would make a great gift fur the feline who has everything. Your very own lickable catnip treat fur $1.79 and free s/h from Hong Kong. Now this wouldn’t make it here befur Christmas, but hey, we’re cats. We deserve gifts every day, right? 

 

Dezi lays on scratcher

5.  Our favorite corrugated Cat Scratcher at $38.99 and free shippin’. We couldn’t pawssibly have a Gift Guide fur kitties without includin’ a great scratcher. At nearly 34” long and 10” high and wide, it’s not only good fur scratchin’, but makes the purrfect loungin’ spot.   

 

Raena sits on cat tree with mouth open

 

 

 

          Now that kitty’s happy, let’s take a look at some ideas fur the cat men out there. We realize not all cat men wanna flaunt their special luvs fur kitties in the same way as their female counterpawrts. We’re not sure why, but most cat daddies don’t wanna wear a t-shirt announcin’ their cat craziness. But that’s okay, we luvs all the cat daddies out there. That brings us to another place we like to check fur high quality bargain gifts, The LC. At purrices startin’ below $10.00 fur sterling silver, you can get the man in your life some amazin’ jewelry pieces.

 

Lion head leather bracelet

 

6.  This leather and stainless steel Lion’s head bracelet fur $9.99 would let you cat daddy’s show off your luvs fur the feline form in a masculine way. 

 

7.  Check out this Wrist Watch fur only $6.99 and free shipping. 

 

8.  We totally luvs this Yin & Yang 2 pc cat pendant fur him and her. And at only $8.99 with free shippin’ you can knock 2 peeps off your list with one purrchase. And sine it’s made of stainless steel, nopawdy’s gonna turn green. MOL  

 

RaenaBelle, me can’t believe you said that.   

 

 

          What sissy? Mommy said mystery metals are never a good idea fur gifts. They make some peeps rot. Anyways…

 

 

9.  We found this adorable little cat face dish clearanced at $5.99. Now I’s know what you’re thinkin’, but we think it would make a great little dish on a desk or table fur like keys, paper clips and such. Another way the cat daddies can show their devotion to the feline form without screamin’ it. 

 

 

 10. Now this one could be fur anypawdy, not just the men. Everypawdy needs a calendar, right? Paw on over to cafepress.com to purrsonalize your gift. Prices start at $9.99. They’re even offurin’ free shippin’ right now. And of course there’s lots of other things you can purrsonalize too.

 

11.  Fur the young animal luvver these adorable Paw Print earrings at $9.99 would make a great choice. And feed some hungry shelter cats.  

 

Dezi lays on chair arm looking at mommy A

 

 

 

Those earrings would make a great gift fur anypawdy with pierced ears Raena. Our next find is a bit whimsical, but hey, sometimes ya’ need a little whimsy. 

 

Cat ice tray

12.  Ifin you’re lookin’ fur a fun novelty gift to spice up a pawrty or even every day, this kitty ice cube tray just might be the thing at only $5.99. 

 

13.  Me purrsonally found this store on ebay. They have lots of great kitty and woofy pendants fur the ladies startin’ at $8.00 with free shippin’. 

 

14.  We know many have lost their furry luvs this past year and it’s really tuff, specially on the holidays. Mommy still cries herself to sleep a lot of nights. So, we thought this adorable little pendant at $7.99 was a great memorial gift. 

 

15.  This jaguar Key Chain is a must. After all, doesn’t everypawdy have at least one key? And it’s under $7.00 with free shippin’. 

 

So, there you have it…15 gifts on a budget. Now me knows the cat scratcher is a bit costly. But trust me, it’s worth every penny. 

 

Raena lays on chair back

 

 

 

          It is sissy. And, I’s know we’re hopin’ one finds it way to our house. Even ifin you hadn’t hurled all over ours, we’ve purretty much scratched it to death, on all sides. Altho’ I’s still think some of the bestest gifts don’t cost a thing. I’s know fur a fact that mommy’s never been happier than when I’s gave her a few slow blinks and purrs. 

 

You’re right Raena. Even budget items are ‘spensive when you don’t have any green papers. And it’s fur that very reason, that we always, always include our thoughts on the purrfect purriceless gifts. A hug and a kiss and a me luvs you can’t be beat. A flower from the garden can make any mother smile.

 

          I’s heard it could even be a weed ifin it’s given with luvs sissy. 

 

Dezi and Raena look out window from atop the cat tree

 

 

 

That’s true Raena. Anyways, we hope we’ve helped you find some last minute gifts guaranteed to arrive by Christmas. More ‘purrtantly, we wanna fank you all fur your luv. You’ve given us the greatest gift anyone can give. We luv and cherish each and every one of you. And it’s our purrayer that you receive all you need and all you want today and every day. 

 

          That’s fur sure sissy. We’re also linkin’ up with Comedy Plus fur Feline Furiday. 

 

And don’t furget to join the Blessing Train.
