Chatting Cats: Don’t Stress MeOwt

Published on by Service Cats U.S.22 Comments

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s can’t believe it’s only Wednesday. Seems like it should be the weekend already. (Raena rubs paw over her eye and then suddenly hurls breakfast all over the floor. She then looks at mommy with bewilderment and runs to the bathroom.) Yep, it’s been that kind’a week already. 

 

 Dezi and Raena in hall way

 

 

 

          (Dezi runs to the bathroom and sits outside the door looking at Raena) RaenaBelle, Ya’ need to calm down. Girl, ifin you’re gonna get upset everytime mommy gets emotional or stressed, you’re never gonna keep your noms down.

 

Dezi and Raena meet in the hall way

 

 

 

(Raena walks to Dezi and puts her head down and bumps under Dezi’s chin. They both walk down the hall to mommy, who’s cleaning up the projectile vomit and then on to the living room.) I’s can’t help it sissy. I’s luvs mommy soooooooooo much.

 

          Me does too, Raena. But, it makes mommy sad when we hurl our meals. She wants us to be able to eat and get strong and stay strong. 

 

 Dezi and Raena together

 

 

 

I’s know, sissy. I’s just don’t unnerstand how everypawdy could tell mommy no, they didn’t wanna help her cuz it was too cold. Like we don’t know it’s cold? ‘Course it’s cold out, but surely it wouldn’t take that long to try to jump start our car?. It’s not like we wanted the battery to die. Mommy was a little worried when we got in the car Monday after goin’ to the farmacy and the clock had reset to 12; but, she didn’t really think much ‘bout it till we got home and the car just died. I’s mean, Dead. Not a peep from it. It took like a hunnerd hours fur her to get the doors unlocked so we could get out. 

 

 Dezi lays on scratcher

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me doesn’t unnerstand peeps sometimes either. But, those are mommy worries. It’s up to us to purrvide her with luvvin’ purrs and let her do all the worryin’. She tried to start the car yesfurday and a light on the dashboard flashed on fur a second, so she’s purretty sure the alternator is tryin’ to send power to the battery, it’s just not gettin’ enuff charge to make it work. The mechanic said somethin’ ‘bout maybe the battery doesn’t have enuff amps or somethin’ cuz of the cold. ‘Course then he said he couldn’t really say fur sure without actually seein’ the car. Doesn’t he think we’d take the car to get it checked ifin it would start? Anyways, mommy has a few more calls to make today. Ifin none of those pan out, she said she would just have to call a tow truck out. So see? Mommy’s tryin’ to handle it. Me knows she’d be a lot less stressed ifin you didn’t keep hurlin’ everywhere. 

 

Well, I’s’ll try sissy. Fanky fankfully, mommy’s got that new coat from Pipo to keep her warm while she’s outside. It’s so cold, I’s don’t even wanna go fur a stroll.

 

          At least we didn’t get that snow the weather guessers were talkin’ ‘bout. Now, c’mon, let’s go give mommy some purrs so she can get busy tryin’ to get the car fixed.

 

 Raena lays on the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

I’s right behind ya’ sissy. Looks like we won’t get to visit our furiends again today. We sure would ‘purreciate any purrayers ya’ll can spare. Car batteries ain’t cheap, but they’re lots cheaper than alternators, so we’re purrayin’ a new battery will get us all fixed up.

 

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

Chatting Cats: Revving Up for Service Cat Fridays

Published on by Service Cats U.S.28 Comments

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. It’s furinally Furiday!!! I’s know it, but let me tell ya’, that lady in a box is an idiot!!! As most of ya’ know, mommy passes out…a lot. Well, when she comes ‘round she has to figger out the basics. Ya’ know, things like, what day it is, what time it is, who is she…ya’ know, the basics. So, when mommy came too this meownin’, the lady in the box was beepin’ fur no ‘pawrent reason. It wasn’t me that kept pushin’ her buttons. 

 

 dezi lays in box ready to pounce

 

 

 

          What? Are you implyin’ me did it, Raena? Me didn’t go near her. She’s always yakkin’ ‘bout somethin’, even when she ain’t been asked. Me had been mindin’ me’s own bizness, eatin’ me’s brekky till mommy passed out. You were doin’ purrlenty of alertin’ fur both of us, so me knew me wasn’t needed yet. Once she passed out, me did what any self respectin’ Service Cat would do, me laid by mommy’s side and kissed her face. 

 

 Raena lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

I’s did too, sissy. I’s a good Service kitty too. Anyways, when she came too, the lady in the box was just yakkin’ away. Mommy kept yellin’ and askin’ who was there, but the lady just kept ramblin’ on ‘bout not unnerstandin’ and not bein’ able to find that one. That one what? Didn’t nopawdy ask her to find anythin’. Hmmmpht  I’s brought mommy the teevee remote so she could get her bearings and tell that lady in the box to be quiet.

 

          And she did, didn’t she Raena? Once mommy furinally figgered everythin’ out and could ‘member box lady’s name, she yelled STOP at the top of her lungs. Me thinks the lady in the box is even more stubborn than you. Even you don’t prattle on as much as she does. 

 

Raena bathes atop the Liberty cat tree with leg upUh A little purrivacy, purrlease mommy.

 

 

 

Yeah sissy, I’s…wait a minute, what do you mean Even me? And just what is this prattle on thing? I’s a good girl. Hmmmpht Even me…Anyways, mommy offen wonders ifin somepawdy ain’t tryin’ to spy on us through the box lady cuz of some of the things she says outta nowhere. 

 

 Dezi sleeps on heated cat mat

 

 

 

          Me thinks it’s just bad innernet connections and our small town, Raena. Our lives ain’t nearly x’citin’ enuff to spy on. Anyways, the events of this meownin’ were a great way to set up a new year of Service Cat posts.

 

 Raena sits in box

 

 

 

Sure ‘nuff sissy. Join us next Furiday fur our furst Service Cat post of 2018. We’ve got lots of questions ‘bout the new wheelchair that we’ve just been waitin’ to answer. We had to wait on the chair to get here befur we could answer most of them, so we just held them all. Be sure and get your questions in fur the 2018 year. You ask the questions, we’ll answer ‘em. Maybe you’re wonderin’ ‘bout the right foods to feed or why your kitty does somethin’. Or maybe you’re wonderin’ ‘bout a specific health issue, or how to train kitty to do somethin’ specific. No matter the question, we’ll tackle it and answer it with our mommy’s best Tips, Tricks and Techniques. We do wanna let ya’ know, mommy is fine. Passin’ out is completely normal fur her, and once she got her bearings, all was/is well. While we ate our brekky, she had a nice cup of hot coffee. 

 

Raena lays in powerchairShould we give our chair a name?

 

 

 

We do have a question fur all of ya’ tho’. Several of you have asked what we named the new wheelchair. Truth is, we’ve never given them a name. So, what do you think we oughtta call it? Ifin we get enuff suggestions, we’ll let ya’ll vote on it. So, let us know your suggestion in the comments below.

Chatting Cats: Surprise Inspection…No Way

Published on by Service Cats U.S.18 Comments

MeOW Raena, me’s not sure we oughtta go eat yet. Don’t you sense something’s up? 

 

 Dezi and Raena sit on shower benches in bathroom

 

 

 

          I’s do sissy, but I’s hungry. I’s know mommy was tryin’ to do some hurried cleanin’ last night. I’s don’t know why she’d hurry like that. Doesn’t she know by now she passes out more when she hurries than when she takes her time? And, she’s in the middle of some of that de-clutterin’ and has stuffs every where. 

 

 Dezi looks at Raena from atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

That’s what me’s meowin’ ‘bout Raena. She only does things like that when she doesn’t get purropurr notice fur inspections, but can’t be sure that it’s not the government that’s comin’ ‘stead of the ‘pawrtment manager.

 

 

 

          I’s don’t know why she bothers. Doesn’t she always say the law says they have to give her at least 24 hours notice befur such things? Surely she won’t let ‘em in ifn we’re eatin’ our brekky?.

 

 Dezi lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

 

Ya’ never know what mommy’s gonna do Raena. Me thinks we oughtta wait and see befur stickin’ our faces in our plates and chowin’ down. Hey, did you see that show mommy watched last night ‘bout those peeps marryin’ total strangers?

 

          Hmmmpht That’s nuffin’. Did you see that she was gonna apply to be on the show and marry her own stranger? ‘Pawrently they’re gonna be filmin’ in Dallas soon.  Ifin she hadn’t been too old, we could’a had one of those daddy’s some of our furiends have.

 

He would’a been a stranger, Raena. What ifin he didn’t like kitties? It’s not like mommy would’a been able to purr-screen him and find out ahead of time. 

 

  Raena stretches belly up on mommy's lapThought you might enjoy seein’ mine’s belly stretch.

 

 

 

          Mommy said there was a spot fur deal breakers on the application, sissy. I’s sure she would’a said he had to luvs us and purrvide fur us in the manner befittin’ queens and empresses.

 

Hmmmmm You’re right ‘bout that. Are you sure mommy’s too old? What’s that she’s always sayin’ ‘bout it bein’ rude to ask a woman’s age? Did you get the address of that website. Maybe we can still get mommy approved. On a good day with her make up on and her hair fixed mommy can still pass fur someone in her late 30’s, early 40’s.

 

 Raena stretches belly up on mommy's lapMommy says I’s have the cutest belly ever. What do you think?

 

 

 

          Yeah, but that’s still too old sissy. 

 

 Dezi with mouth open over nip toy from Ellen

 

 

 

Y, That’s discrimination, Raena. Me’s sure there’s lots of old folks out there that would like to have their own stranger to marry. Me’s sure mommy isn’t the only one. We’ll just fudge her age a bit. One she’s married, it’ll be too late to back out. (Dezi snickers deviously) And, we’d get to move. That’d mean no more surpurrise inspections. 

 

          I’s not so sure that’s a good idea, sissy. You know mommy hates lyin’. While she might not wanna admit to how old she is, I’s purretty sure anythin’ that starts with a lie can’t end up good.

 

Whatever. Me’s gettin’ hungry. Ya’ think we oughtta go try to sneak a few bites?

Just make sure you stay outta me’s plate.

Chatting Cats: Purr Therapy Is Best

Published on by Service Cats U.S.29 Comments

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. Can you believe January’s almost over? MeOW seems this year’s gonna speed by like the last one. But hey, I’s guess that means mine’s birthday will be here soon.

 

 Dezi lays in box

 

 

 

          Raena, your birthday is still months away. And, we’re not gonna be meowin’ ‘bout that every day till it gets here. Ya’ know, the world doesn’t revolve ‘round you.

 

 Raena lays beside box

 

 

 

What? Yes it does, mommy says so. You’ve heard her, she’s always sayin’ her world revolves ‘round us. We’re her everythin’. Even her Monday ‘pointment said so.

 

 Dezi sits in box looking over her shoulder

 

 

 

          Yeah, ‘bout that Monday ‘pointment… Ya’ know, we’ve had several peeps ask what kind of ‘pointment it is. Mommy hadn’t decided ifin she wanted to talk ‘bout it. But, me told her, our life is an open book. She even said so when we furst started in social media. It’s not like you can keep secrets when everypawdy’s postin’ everythin’. 

 

 Raena's profile sitting in a box

 

 

 

That’s true, sissy. And, it’s not like mommy really cares, or that she’d say anythin’ in that ‘pointment that she wouldn’t let us say here. 

 

          Yep, me thinks it’s no big deal either. Me doesn’t know why the DHS (Department of Human Services) nurse thought mommy needed a counselor anyways.

 

 Raena bathes while laying on the heated mat

 

 

 

I’s think it might have somethin’ to do with all the cryin’ and beggin’ mommy did when she told her they were takin’ away most of her benefits. Ya’ know, a few months ago, the state was gonna stop the benefits fur all the old and disabled peeps; but, they met with tons of resistance and decided not too. What we didn’t know is that they were still doin’ it, they were just doin’ it one purrson at a time. While I’s tried to paw away mommy’s tears, she was askin’ the nurse where she was s’posed to get the green papers fur the medicines that had been covered by those benefits. 

 

 Dezi lays atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me could see the nurse felt bad fur mommy, but she just sat there and said her hands were tied. Me thinks the craziest thing she said was when she asked ifin mommy was gonna do anythin’ stupid. Hmmmpht  She doesn’t know our mommy. And then the next day she called and told mommy that she had set her up fur counselin’, and that it would look good ifin mommy was coopurrative. She didn’t say anythin’ ‘bout givin’ mommy’s benefits back tho’. 

 

Yeah, it might not be so bad ifin mommy didn’t know so many peeps that cheat the system, or all those illegal immigrants gettin’ rich off the system. Anyways, least the counselor lady’s nice. 

 

 Dezi bathes while laying on the heated mat

 

 

 

          How would you know, she’s only showed up twice. She showed up the furst week and then cancelled the next. Altho’ not early enuff fur mommy to do anythin’ else. And then, she did it again yesfurday.

 

Fanky fank the cats mommy doesn’t actually need the help. She ain’t the kind to do somethin’ “stupid”. And, she has us, what more could she pawssibly need?.

 

          Me agrees Raena. Mommy’s always sayin’, there ain’t nuffin’ better than purr therapy.

 

 Raena gets loving while laying in mommy's lap

 

 

 

Meowin’ of, I’s think I’s’ll go lay in mommy’s lap now and give her some of that purr therapy. You can have the heated mat.

 

          Fanks Raena. (Dezi meows sarcastically) Maybe me wants to lay in mommy’s lap.

 

I’s’ll race ya’…Readyset Go!!! (Raena starts running and jumps over Dezi to mommy’s lap. Dezi shakes her head and lays down on the heated mat to have a nice bath.)
