A Patriot Through and Through

Published on by Service Cats U.S.37 Comments

Meowllo everypawdy. Me doesn’t have to tell ya’ but today is Memorial day here in da United States. As you know me stays away from pawlotics here on me’s bloggy cuz well, there’s just no way to win. You know when it comes to holidays, we always seem to say Happy, Merry or some other gleeful expression. And so today there will be lots of “happy Memorial day” sayings. But me doesn’t exactly know what’s so happy about a day dat we remember those who have served and died or were irrepurrably injured fighting for the freedoms we live under. Especially considering da state of our current affairs.

Now don’t get me wrong, me’s grateful to have been born in America and have those freedoms, and we are soooooooo grateful fur all those who serve and have served to keep us free and safe. Me is grateful to their families who while not serving abroad, served just da same. Me is thankful fur every fallen soldier and he/she is a hero in mes book. Me is thankful to all those who came back to their families and country. And me’s ashamed of how our country has treated some of those soldiers. Whether you agree with the war or not, those soldiers are following orders. Those soldiers are keeping you and me safe. Trust me, they would rather be back home safe and sound in their own beds with their own families. So shame on us fur not always supporting them da way we should. And shame on us fur allowing our government to take away some of da very freedoms dat were bought with da blood and lives of those soldiers.

Dat’s right, Freedom isn’t Free. While our government scurries about tryin’ to re-write history and take away our right to bear arms, or censor our speech, or the many other rights they think allow us to much choice, men and women in da military are still dying to purrtect those rights. Many of those same soldiers serve in areas where they’re not allowed to purractice da same rights they’re fighting fur you and me to keep. Shame on us fur bowing down to Cult leaders who call themselves rulers and telling our soldiers they must abide da rules of da tyrannical governments we as a nation are tryin’ to overthrow.

Are we Patriotic? ABSOLUTELY YES!!! Do we luv America? ABSOLUTELY YES!!! We know we are blest to live in such a great country and we wouldn’t want to live anywhere else. This country was founded on da beliefs of da Bible and our fore fathers intended fur da people to control da government, not da other way around. God Bless America, land of da free and home of da brave. Let us never furget how this country was established and those who bled and died to ensure you could go about your days and nights safely without a care. Those who furget their past are doomed to repeat it. So today and everyday…

REMEMBER

Blest Sunday

Published on by Service Cats U.S.41 Comments

Meowllo and welcome to a brand new week. Of course me’s startin’ it off with a Blest Sunday posty. As you already know we had a pawsumly blest week and celebrated mommy’s birthday. Mommy says it was so nice to see so many who don’t admit their age either. But me wants to know why it is dat humans don’t like to get older or admit they are but when it comes to us anipals, ya’ll seem to get all beside yourself excited da older we get? You know, what’s up with dat?

Well mommy isn’t any good with DIY so we found this pin art in one of da foto editin’ apps and thought we would share it. Can ya’ make me out? MOL

Anyways, we have a question fur ya’ll. As ya’ know mommy doesn’t have any two legged non furry kids, and at this point in her life doesn’t want any. Me says fank catness, cuz me likes it just like it is. You know what would me do with a non furry? Me hears they get all sticky and chase us kitties around and try to pull our tails and such. Me has a lot of furs and sure wouldn’t wanna have to clean all da sticky off. And let me tell you, me may be gentle and all but pull me’s tail and me will go all ninja and whacky paw ya’ fur sure. (Dezi imitates her ninja moves and whacky paw- “KeeeeeYa”) Anyways, me’s getting’ off track. Let’s get back to dat question. Seems Direct TV has a new commercial and one of da lines says, “rethink havin’ that second child.” Now let me tell ya, mommy finds dat totally offensive and we don’t even have those kind of kiddies. Da commercial’s been playin’ now fur over a month, so obviously nopawdy’s sayin’ a thing. We don’t know ifin peeps just ain’t payin’ attention or ifin they think dat’s okay. So, purrlease, weigh in on this.

In other news, fur all of ya’ dat sent us e-mails askin’, yes mommy is still takin’ care of Buddy. Mr. W is gonna milk his rehab stay as long as he can, so he’s been transferred from da hospital in Ardmore to our hospital. A few years ago they revamped our hospital and put in a rehab center fur peeps just like mr. W. After mommy told him to quit orderin’ her around, he stayed mad at her fur ‘bout a week and finally called and asked nicely how Buddy was doin’. No, he never pawlogized, and he never will. At some point, he’ll start bossin’ her around again and mommy will tell him off again and we’ll start all over. It’s just da way of things. Some peeps are just too stubborn to learn from their faux pas. Fancy word dat faux pas, right? MOL

We feel truly blest to have all of you in our lives. This past week was made easier because of all of you. Mommy still missed sissy and still had da sads, but your support helped ease da pain. And we are blest to have received da material blessings we had this week. And we’re always blest to have your purrayers and support. Remember to take a minute today and each day to give thanks fur da blessings in your lives. You will always be in our purrayers. Me’s gonna go take a nap now. Ooops, me almost furgot. Me’s joinin’ da Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies.

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

So what do you think about the Direct TV commercial?

Get Off The Phone Mommy

Published on by Service Cats U.S.41 Comments

Meowllo everypawdy, hope your week is goin’ great. It’s been busy, busy ‘round here lately. Let me tell ya’ findin’ somepawdy to help mommy is a lot of work. You know with da exception of a couple hours yesfurday when mommy’s case worker was here, mommy was on da fone most of da day with one purrson or another. She’s gotta check refurences, both purrsonal and business, and set up interview times, and get others applications. Mommy says even tho’ it’s a lot of work, she’s happy dat we actually have a few different peeps to choose from. At furst it was lookin’ purretty bleak.

Dezi lays on the floor with her Yeowww nip rainbow
Oh, Hey everypawdy, how ya’ doin’?

And of course you all know we’re lookin’ fur a helper of da 4 legged furry purrin’ kind too, so dat takes up a lot of mommys day. Everyday she calls da shelters, rescues, and newspaper and online ads to see ifin me’s new sisfur is out there. So far everytime we think we’ve found her somethin’ happens and we’re startin’ all over again. But dat’s okay, we just know da right sissy will show up. Me thinks when she does we oughtta throw a pawty. What do ya’ll think? Me thinks anythin’ is a good reason to celebrate. MOL  Me just has to get mommy off dat fone.

Dezi licks her paw while laying on the floor
Lickety, lick, lick, lick

Anyways, this month has just gotten away from me. Me had planned to have another give away this month, but things just didn’t fall into place in time, so da furst week of June, stay tuned. Me thinks you’re gonna luv this one. And mommy is also tryin’ to figger out how to shoot a tutorial video. Me knows ya’ wanna know what it’s about, but you’ll just have to stay tuned. Me can tell ya’ me’s not gonna be da most coop-purrative purrticipant.

Well there’s a long weekend comin’. Mommy’s birthday always falls on da weekend of Memorial day, and this year it’s da Furiday befur. As me told you befur, we aren’t gonna have a big brouhaha. Mommy had hoped to have a new furry purrer by then, but since dat isn’t gonna happen me told her we could play snuggle snuggle. Just gotta keep her off da fone long enuff.

 Dezi rolls on her Yeowww Nip rainbow

Mommy thinks me’s been sleepin’ too much lately. Me doesn’t seem interested in playin’ much. And she’s tried everythin’. So just fur mommy, last night and this meownin’ me had a little play fest with me’s Yeowww rainbow dat we got fur Christmas. It sure made mommy happy. She was smilin’ and gigglin’ like a little girly watchin’ me play. And she didn’t get on da fone once. It doesn’t take much to purrlease mommies. And of course she had da flashy box close by and was snap, snap, snappin’ away, so me thought me would share a few of those fotos with ya’ll today. Me’s gonna wrap it up so we can try to get by and visit as many of ya’ as pawssible befur da storm hits. 

Dezi smells nip on the floor and scratches it
Ooooooh Even da floor smells like nip.

Do ya’ll have any plans fur da long weekend? 

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

All Hail The Queen of Slink

Published on by Service Cats U.S.44 Comments

Meowllo everypawdy, hope you had a great weekend. It’s another Miserable Monday here and let me tell you, we sure had a storm last night. Ya know da skies have been gray and sunless furever now, but at least da rains have been quiet da last few days. And then outta nowhere last night da thunder and lightnin’ started up and scared da b-jeebies outta me.

 Dezi cocks head to the side in thought

There we was, layin’ in bed all cuddled up da way mommy and me do. Ya’ know mommy can’t sleep without a kitty cuddled up next to her purrin’ her a lullaby. And me and sis Lexi used to purr in unison. Mommy says it was kinda like havin’ a vibratin’ bed. Anyways, me’s getting’ off track here, let’s get back to da storm of da century. So there we was all cuddled up and suddenly, BOOM gRrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrUMBLE It was so loud even mommy jumped. Me couldn’t slink or scamper off da bed and under it fast enuff. But me had purrlenty of light to see by, cuz lightnin’ came through da black bedroom curtains and lit up da whole room. Well mommy began to coo at me from atop da bed while me shook in me’s fur under da bed. She wanted me back up on da bed with her. Like dat was gonna happen. As long as da sky was grumblin’, me was gonna stay put……….safely UTB (under the bed). Mommy calls me da Queen of Slink. She says fur a big kitty me can sure flatten out fast enuff.

Now let me tell you somethin’ you may not know about me’s mommy. She’s a clever one. She doesn’t like to take no fur an answer and won’t ifin she can help it. So there me was shakin’ in me’s fur and mommy’s cooin’ and nothing’s happening. So she begins to whine. You know, “Dezi, I Neeeeeeeed you. Baby, I can’t sleep without you. Dezi, it’s okay, I won’t let anything or anybody hurt you, come on back up here on the bed with mommy.” Yeah, just how did she plan on purrtectin’ me while she slept? Was she gonna snore dat storm away? Me wasn’t goin’ anywhere. UTB was just fine with me.

 Dezi lays on the bed

After what seemed like furever me heard mommy softly snifflin’. Hmmmmm Me cocked me’s head and thought a minute. Somethin’ must be wrong. Mommy’s cryin’. So me made da decision to go and check on her. Me bravely crouched low to da ground and slinked out from under da bed and looked up from da floor. Me couldn’t see a thing. So me hurried up da steps and jumped over to mommy’s chest and stuck me’s face in hers. Meow? What’s wrong mommy, me asked. ‘Tween da sniffles mommy went on about how sis Lexi wouldn’t have left her alone just cuz of some storm and how me has to be her big girl now, and how she neeeeeeds me and luuuuuuvs me and would never let me go. Me lissened intently and purred luvvingly. And then when da next thunder boomer hit…………me scurried back UTB. From me’s spot UTB me meowed to mommy, “Remember mommy, me’s da Queen of Slink and…me Ain’t sis Lexi.” 

Dezi sniffing cat tree perch
Me’s gotta make sure dat ole storm didn’t mess with me’s tree.

We didn’t get much sleep last night, but fur now da storm has ended and it’s quietly mistin’ so me’s out hangin’ with mommy and makin’ her happy. We’ll be by to see you all just as soon as we can. And mommy wants me to say thank you to everypawdy. She feels better knowin’ she’s not so old fashioned after all. It’s been a long time since she applied fur a job so she didn’t know ifin things had changed or not.

Where do you (your kitties) hide when thunder boomers start?

Do you (your kitties) hide during loud events like thunder storms?

 

 

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