MEOWY MONDAY!

Mondays are my LEAST favorite days of the week.  I get used to MomKatt being here for two days, then BANG!  It's time for her to go to that "work" place again.  I can tell she's not happy about going, too, anymore than I am about her going.  Oh well ... I guess it keeps me in kibble.  (But I don't have to like it.)

Well, I got MORE lap time last night!  But I have to be vigilant, even there; these other cats want to get in MomKatt's lap, too, but when I'M there, this is NOT happening.  Livia started walking between the front of the sofa & the coffee table and I STARED at her the entire time.  I mean I never took my eye off of her for a SECOND.  Then, she tried to be all smart, and get on the BACK of the sofa (maybe she thought I didn't know you could do that!)  HA!  I've not only gotten on the back of the sofa myself, SHE isn't as quiet and stealthy as she thinks she is.   I WHIRLED around in the lap and flattened my body down and STARED back at Livia, as if to say, "I know where you are and what you're trying to do!"  She had the TEMERITY to growl ... AT ME!  I wasn't about to abandon my position to attack, in case she squeezed in there despite my best efforts, but I let her know I was (A) watching her like a hawk and (B) not about to yield my position.

Other than that, I love MomKatt's lap.  Of course, though, I didn't come down 'til about 8:30 PM, and by 10:00 PM, she and DadKatt were nodding off on the couch but I was not showing any signs of wanting to get up!  MOL!  MomKatt said, "I wish you'd come down here & done this earlier!  I've been here all day!"  (Sunday is her "movie day" so I've got to learn that there is a lap available nearly all day on Sundays & take better advantage of this fact.)

Well, I hope my blog peeps all had a good weekend ... and I got a catnip banana this weekend, too!  Though MomKatt said my reaction was an "anti-climax". I mean, yeah, I bunny-kicked it & hugged it, etc., but she thinks maybe I'm still to young to really enjoy da nip.  Maybe ... we'll see.  (But those other cats BETTER not drool all over it - they can get their OWN bananas!)
 
Peace out, peeps!

PURRS!

A Journey - Selina Carter, April 9, 2011 - March 6, 2024

Dearest Furrends: My scribe is typing this entry with a truly heavy heart. Yesterday, I made my journey to The Rainbow Bridge. My doctor, Dr. Daniel, told me in November 2023 that I had something called a "mass" that she could feel when she did something she called "palpating" my underside during my annual well-kitty exam. It didn't hurt - it just felt like she was squeezing me a little. She told Mom&DadKatt, who were there with me (of course) and suggested several options. They decided to start giving me a medicine called prednisone (I called it YUCK ). Dr. D said it would really boost my appetite. Boy, did it! See, MomKatt noticed I'd lost a fair amount of weight in a couple of months prior and she knew something was wrong. I've always been a big (not fat, just big) beautiful one-eyed thang, as y'all know, so this wasn't normal. It's that MomKatt radar - I know all of y'alls pawrents have it. That's why she scooped me up that da...

Bag Day!

Meowlo, Peeps! Today is Bag Day and Keaton is demonstrating some of the many different things he can do with an ordinary paper sack from the grocery store. He claims it's environmentally responsible, as he's upcycling a natural resource. Do you buy that? Whatever ...  Anyway, here he is.  As you might notice, he enjoys a variety of bags from different places (i.e. he has no taste and will take ANYTHING that comes along.)  This one is from Lowe's Foods grocery store.    This one is from Jersey Mike's subs. We all loved that one because it smelled soooooo good but he wormed his under it and none of us could get in.       We never got into it and in the end, it's cool because MomKatt got a hilarious photo out of it! (We have NO clue what he's doing in there.  Doesn't he have a great butt, though??)   Uh oh ... bag change! He's got the one MomKatt stole from Ed McKay's used bookstore!    At least he can't tear that one up ... ...

Report From Sick Bay

Howdy peeps, First off, THANK YOU so much for everyone's concern, thoughts, messages.  It means so much to me & MomKatt (and DadKatt).  A short update. As you read in the previous entry, Dr. Lofgren said I had a "fever of unknown origin" (and that I also weigh a nice, solid 11 lbs.).  He said, in a cat as young as I, these usually are caused by just something I've picked up.  He noted that I hadn't lost any weight, and that my gums were nice & pink, so those were good signs.   He gave me antibiotics in a shot and Sub-Q fluids yesterday and, when MomKatt picked me up, my temp was down from 104.2 to 103.  (He told her normal was 100-102.)  I ate my gooshy food once I got home and spent all night on MomKatt's lap on the sofa - I WENT to the sofa MYSELF this time, she didn't have to carry me into the living room.  *I* knew where I wanted to snuggle! This morning, she got up & found me on the sofa, basically right where she l...
