Chatting Cats: Hunting With The Cousins

Hey, is anypawdy out there? It’s me, RaenaBelle. I’s gotta tell ya’, that chatter box mommy calls a teevee, sure has some great shows. I’s seen kin folk of all kinds this past week. I’s saw a leopard, a cheetah and of course, mine’s favorite, the lions.

          Raena, you know those cats aren’t really our cousins, don’t you? 

 

 Raena watches tv.

Hey, wait up, I’s wanna play too.

 

 

What do ya’ mean sissy? Mommy says they are our cousins, and I’s sure she knows more than you ‘bout those kinds of things. Besides, I’s unnerstand everythin’ they’re sayin’. Ya’ know, they meow just like us. Don’t you ‘member how worried that leopard was when we were sick? She was chuffin’ to beat the band. 

 

 Raena watches leopard on tv

What’s that ya’ say Ms. Leopard? Y, Fanky fank ya’. We’re feelin’

much better now.

 

 

          Yeah Raena, me members all that chuffin’, but me’s bettin’ she wasn’t chuffin’ fur us. 

 

 Raena watches cape buffalo on tv while laying in the chair

Yep, looks purretty tasty to me.

 

 

You can think what you want sissy, but I’s sure she was chuffin’ fur us. And then, I’s even joined the hunt. Did you see me? We hunted a giraffe, a buffalo and even a deer of some kind. 

 

 Raena watches lions on tv while laying in the chair

So, what’s our plan? How are we gonna take down that big old buffalo?

 

 

          Sure you did Raena. And what was mommy hollerin’ the whole time? 

 

 Raena watches tv

I’s got this!!! I’s’ll come in the front here.

 

 

Was mommy hollerin’ sissy? I’s didn’t hear anythin’; I’s was so involved in the hunt. Ya’ know you’ve gotta focus or you’ll slip up. I’s sure didn’t wanna be the reason we messed up and didn’t ketch our prey.

 

 Raena wstches lions on tv

Great job we did there Mrs. Lioness. Where can I’s get a bite from?

 

 

          Oh Raena… (Dezi rolls her eyes and shakes her head

 

 Raena watches the lions eat their kill

Hey, where’s I’s s’posed to fit in?

 

 

But, you know what sissy? They wouldn’t share the kill with me. After all the help I’s gave ‘em, they wouldn’t let me have any of that giraffe or the deer thingy. I’s just know I’s would’a liked ‘em. You know how much we like the odd purroteins. Chickens schmickens, give me giraffe any old day. 

 

 Raena gets close to the TV

Yeah, that monkey don’t look so scary to me.

 

 

          What would you know ‘bout girafe RaenaBelle? We’ve never had anythin’ like that. Granted, me agrees, we might really like giraffe ifin mommy was to serve it up on our plates. Me will leave the huntin’ and killin’ to our lion and tiger cousins. Ya’ know Raena, now that we’re feelin’ better and it’s startin’ to cool off outside, maybe we can meow mommy into takin’ us fur a stroll and getting’ you away from the chatter box. Maybe some day you’ll learn ya’ can’t actually eat anythin’ ya’ see there. 

 

 Dezi sits in front of tv with giraffe horn on her head

Wha’d’ya’ think I’s look like with giraffe horns?

 

 

Like you know ya’ can’t actually eat the pizza you keep pawin’ at? I’s wonder ifin any of our furiends enjoy the chatter box? I’s know a lot of them like to watch bird tv from their windows. But, they fur sure ain’t seein’ all the action we do. Anyways, goin’ fur a stroll sounds like fun sissy. Altho’ watchin’ the chatter box is great fun too. Let’s go see what mommy’s doin’ and get her in the shower so we can go out. I’s’ll race ya’.

Dezi eat Core shreds

 

          As you can see, chicken is not only the furst ingredient, it’s purretty much the only ingredient. Now, ya’ need to ‘member the Core Simply Shreds are NOT a balanced meal. They are great fur addin’ to your pets normal meal as a topper or even a special treat. Ya’ know, maybe ya’ wanna give kitty a midnight snack, but ya’ want somethin’ a little healthier than a handful of treats. These toppers would be a great option. They come in a case of 12) 1.75 ounce packets, 4 flavors and cost $13.99 a case. They also have these fur the doggies. I’s should also tell ya’ the packets are full of water. That’s good fur helpin’ to keep kitty hydrated, but mommy says ya’ better be careful and open ‘em over the sink. She didn’t do that the furst time and had to mop befur we could eat. Never a good idea to tempt kitty and make us wait while you clean house. 

 

 Dezi looks over at Raena from her plate of Core shreds

 

 

That’s fur sure Raena. We could smell that chicken just callin’ our names; and waitin’ fur mommy to finish moppin’ was just torture. Me couldn’t wait to check it out when mommy furinally served us. Me licked up all that tasty chicken water.

 

 Dezi eats Core Shreds while Raena looks on

 

 

          You sure did sissy. I’s waited ever so patiently fur mine’s turn to test it out. By the time you furinally let me try it, all that was left was shreds of chicken. You didn’t leave me, not one frop of that chicken flavored water. Fanky fankfully, mommy saw that and added some fur me. It was all purretty tasty ifin ya’ ask me. I’s would fur sure give the Wellness Core Simply Shreds 3 paws up. What ‘bout you sissy? 

 

 Dezi eats Core shreds while Raena looks on

I’s think it’s mine’s turn now sissy. Don’t you?

 

 

Raena eats Core shreds

 

 

Me thought the water was quite tasty. And, me did come back later and eat a few shreds. They weren’t too bad, so me would give ‘em 3 paws up as well. Me meowed with mommy a bit and she says, she’d give ‘em a thumb up cuz we both ate them and they’re a one ingredient treat. But only 1 thumb, cuz of the mess while opening them, and she said those little shreds are kind’a hard fur us kitties to actually eat. Seems we made a bit of a mess outside the plate. So, mommy not only had to mop, but she also had to run the sweeper over the area around our plates. And, mommy thinks they’re a little on the costly side fur what ya’ get. All in all, 6 paws and a thumb is purretty good.

          Sure ‘nuff sissy. And of course, there’s also the box. You know we luvs us a Chewy box. And, we luvs Chewy. They offur great purroducts at great purrices with furee speedy shippin’ on all orders $49.00 and up, every day. They have a pawsum auto ship program that insures you never run out of your pets favorite noms, litter or whatever. But don’t worry, you can always skip, cancel or delay anytime. And you can also add things to or take things out of your auto deliveries. You’ll get an email in purrlenty of time to make any changes ya’ need befur the ship date. Trust us, this is somethin’ mommy luvs. And of course, we can’t say enuff good things ‘bout Chewy’s customer service peeps. They still believe, the customer’s always right. That’s a hard quality to find these days. 

 

Raena gets love while wearing her red dress

Chatting Cats: Where’s My Bite

MeOW  Raena, What are you doin’?

 

 Raena eats treats on the Liberty cat tree

 

 

          Uh, Who? Me? Uh, I’s just havin’ a little turkey tom lurkey. You know, mommy had another dentist ‘pointment yesfurday to get somethin’ called a soft liner in her new teethies. Seems she’s had trouble keepin’ ‘em in her mouth, and this soft liner stuff’s s’posed to help with that.

 

Dezi lays atop the liberty cat tree

 

 

Yeah, me knows ‘bout the ‘pointment Raena, but where’d the turkey tom lurkey come from? Me knows you didn’t get it at the dentist office.

          You’re right sissy. But wouldn’t that be fun. Mommy says when she was little, the dentists always gave her a sucker after her ‘pointments. She’d get a long lecture ’bout eatin’ candy and how that was the reason she was losin’ a tooth, and then he’d go and give her a choice of suckers. Seems kind’a crazy, but I’s guess it assures him of future business. MOL  Anyways, right next door to the dentist office is an Arby’s. After talkin’ with a furiend who’s goin’ thru the exact same thing as mommy, and findin’ out he was able to eat a steak sammich and a pizza, mommy decided to give that sammich thing a try. Arby’s has these sammiches called sliders, that only cost a dollar ‘tween the hours of 2 and 5, so mommy said we just had to make a stop. But, we had to wait till we got back home to have any cuz mommy wanted to make sure we both got some.

 

Well then, where’s me’s bite? Did you already eat it up?

 

 Raena sits on small perch at door

 

 

          Who? Meeeee? Nah, that wasn’t me sissy. Maybe we have a kitty ghost or somethin’.

 

 Dezi lays in the house on the Liberty cat tree

 

 

Me thinks you did. But, that’s okay, me saw what ya’ll brought home the other day, and me purrfurs that to Arby’s turkey tom lurkey any day. Mommy had bought one of those tv dinners with turkey tom lurkey bites and was able to chew them up. She got purretty x’cited ‘bout that and then saw that turkey breasts were on sale at the grocery store fur $4.99. ‘Course, mommy headed fur the grocery store where she discovered they weren’t actually $4.99, but $4.99 a pound. So, mommy bought another bag of taters instead.

 

 Raena scratches on the butterfly cat scratcher

 

 

          Yep sissy, I’s know mommy has to be getting’ tired of taters, but there’s no way she was payin’ $5.00 a pound fur anythin’. But then, one of our angels sent mommy some green papers and told her to go get one of those breasts. So, we went back to the store and mommy found a different turkey tom lurkey fur less green papers. I’s tried to tell her to get the biggest one they had, but she said the one she picked out would be purrlenty fur the three of us. But, when we got home, mommy put him in the freezer. She said we had to wait till after she got that soft liner fur her teethies, and a weekend, when ‘lectric purrices were cheaper befur she’d be cookin’ him up. 

 

Ya’ know what that means don’t ya’ Raena? We’re havin’ turkey tom lurkey this weekend. Me can’t wait. 

 

          Me either. In the meantime, I’s’ll be happy to finish mommy’s sammich. Seems it’s still too early fur mommy to be bitin’ anythin’. Anyways, what did you do while mommy and me were gone yesfurday? 

 

Me took a nice long peaceful nap. Till the sky started grumblin’ that is. Me’s so tired of all these storms. Me was so glad to see ya’ll come walkin’ thru the door. Me was worried what with ya’ll bein’ out in the storms and all. 

 

          Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaw fanky fank you sissy. We worried ‘bout you bein’ home alone too.

Me’s glad to hear you were at least thinkin’ ‘bout me Raena. But, me does enjoy me’s alone time…well, sometimes me does. That sammich does smell good. Let’s go ask mommy fur a few more bites and try to visit some of our furiends befur the storms roll in again.

Blest Sunday: Rain Dancing & Blessings

Mmrrrrr Hiss, Stop it Raena, it’s time fur Blest Sunday.

 

 Dezi looks up at Raena atop the Liberty cat tree

 

 

          C’mon sissy, I’s just wanna play. Meowin’ of blessings, look ‘round. We’re so blest to have so much to play with.

 

We are Raena. But, you know blessings aren’t all ‘bout the material things.

 

Raena plays with remote mouse

 

 

          ‘Course I’s know that sissy, but still, it’s nice to have ‘em. But, I’s also know that we’re blest to have such a pawsum mommy. Did we not have fun this weekend? Even tho’ mommy woke up feelin’ sicker than a dog, she made time fur us. 

 

 Dezi walks outside in her harness on a leash

 

 

Yep Raena, she sure did. We had asked ifin she would take us fur a stroll but mommy did even better. Well, sort of. Me got all harnessed up, and thinkin’ me was goin’ fur a stroll furst, me went straight over to the stroller. To me’s sur-purrise, mommy snatched me up in her arms and took me outside. She even let me touch me’s paws to the grass. We were lolly-gaggin’ (wastin’ time) ‘round when all of a sudden mommy realized she had left the camera in the house. Did you know we could hear you meowin’ at the door all the way on the other side of the ‘pawrtment complex?

  

          I’s wanted to be with you and mommy sissy. What did you x’pect me to do, wait mine’s turn patiently?

 

Kittens Raena, you could see us every minute. Anyways, realizin’ we didn’t have the camera, but seein’ that me was really enjoyin’ the great outdoors, mommy said, “It’s okay Dezi, we don’t have to have photos of everythin’, all the time.” So, we just kept walkin’ ‘round. Till that is, mommy got tired of hearin’ you mewin’ at the door like a little lost kitten. 

 

 Raena walks towards the woods on her harness

 

 

          Well sissy, I’s figgered ya’ll had been out there purrlenty long enuff that surely it was mine’s turn. I’s couldn’t wait to get outside and put mine’s paws on the grass. We even stopped off at the mailboxes to check the mail. And, that’s when it happened. Mine’s nice long leisurely stroll got cut short. In mere seconds the birds stopped singin’ and the skies turned black as night. The heavens opened up and let the flood waters fall. Oh MeOW, I’s headed straight fur the pawrkin’ lot to dance in the rain. Mommy was yellin’ somethin’ I’s couldn’t quite make out thru all the noise of the storm. And then, befur I’s could get mine’s paw in the puddle on the sidewalk, mommy snatched me up and took off runnin’ towards our ‘pawrtment.

 

 Dezi looks outside from the cat tree

 

 

Yep Raena, ya’ll looked so funny. Mommy can’t actually run to save her life, so ya’ll were doin’ more like a quick hobble. Mommy’s head was lookin’ down as much as she can bend her head, and you were starin’ straight up pawin’ at the air.

 

          Oh sissy, it was so much fun. Till we got back inside that is. I’s was soaked. All mine’s fur was wet. It took hours fur me to dry off. And, you were no help, hidin’ out unner the bed. 

 

How many times does me have to tell ya’, Me’s Not HIDIN’, me’s purrtectin’ mommy and you from spiders and other creepy crawlers.

 

 Raena eats treats on cat tree

 

 

          Yeah, sure. Whatever you say sissy. I’s just happy we got some special time with mommy. We are indeed blest.

 

We most certainly are Raena. And, one of our angels sent some green papers fur mommy to get somethin’ special fur all of us. We sure did purreciate it. We’ll tell ya’ all ‘bout that shoppin’ trip later.

 

          Hey sissy, did you see the card mommy got from another bloggin’ angel? She had been blest by somepawdy and wanted to pass it along. We furgot to ask ‘bout name droppin’, but she knows who she is, and we’re sendin’ fanky fanks and hugs your way. 

 

 Dezi lays on cat tree and looks down

 

 

We have the bestest furiends in the universe Raena. Fank you all fur bein’ our furiends and pawrt of our furmily. We’d like to remind you all to take a minute today and every day to give thanks fur the blessings in your lives. Each new day brings new blessings ifin we’ll just stop and see ‘em. We’re linkin’ up with the Kitties Blue fur Sunday Selfies too. C’mon Raena, let’s go play.
