Nursing

No, I haven't had kittens!

MomKatt's got a horrible head cold.  I thought she was going to cough her lungs out into the kitchen sink this morning.  She's no good for nuthin' today.  So I, Nurse Selina, am on duty.

As you can see, it's mostly an easy job - at least until she gets on a coughing jag.  And of course, those usually begin JUST when I've settled down and positioned myself just right on the blanket.  Then I get bounced around like a rubber ball!

Oh well, it's a living I suppose.  Morticia couldn't put up with it, so she abandoned MomKatt's lap earlier this morning, leaving it wide open for moi.  I've gotten her tissues, a big book, cough drops, her coffee and her glasses.  Yep, and a movie ready to go.  DadKatt's helping too (it's nice of him, since HE gave her this crud to begin with!)  We'll have her up & around in no time.

Meanwhile, we both hope you guys are having better Sundays than we she is.  Me, I'm fine ...

 As long as she doesn't cough ... *sigh*

Uh oh here she goes again ... 

PURRS!
Selina

    We hope your MomKatt is better soon or you'll be quite exhausted Selina. In any case we think your need a squillion long naps to recover from the bouncing about you'll be getting when she coughs.

    Love to your Mom

    Purrz to your MomKatt. TW got a flu shot Friday and now she's as sick as a dog. She can't breathe and she's wheezing and just feeling crappy. I feel your pain.

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 ...    Or can he?  I don'

Well(er) Wednesday

Good morning pee ps and happy Wednesday! It' s me, your favorite uniocular kitty, back at the helm and, if not "rarin'" to go, at least feeling WAY better than I was almost thi s time last week. How do we k now I'm better?  Photos do n't lie.  Here I am this morning, doing my favorite morning activity :  snoopervising the coffee-making M omKatt . Se e, MomKatt's pretty bleary in the AMs, having just gotten up & all.  So sometimes an "extra eye" is needed, just to mak e sure she gets it right.  Yeah, I got one of them! ( No, MomKatt, the coffee goes in t he filter, NOT the water!  MOL) And, of course, the highlight of my morning java snoopervision is catching, and then applying my Patented Smacky Paws to, th e Wil d Coffee Scoop (those can be d angerous when cornered) ... thusly. Stand aside, worthy adversary!   And now ... THE SMACKY PAW TREATMENT! Humph.  That'll show it who's Boss.  MomKatt reported that the
