Arrival Story: When I was 2 weeks old, meowmie's nephew rescued me from some boys that were tossing me around like a ball. They had stolen me from my kitty meowmie & when he tried to take me back, she had moved all the others somewhere secret. Her nephew was 7 yrs old & he came to meowmie holding me out & saying, "help her live."
Bio: At the time meowmie rescued me, she thought I was a boy & named me Damien, after the devil's child in The Omen. A few months later, she realised I was a girl kitty & feminized my name to Damienne. But she's never called me that except to my docfurs. She's always called me Baby Kitty, since I was hand-raised by her, drinking from a bottle until I was about 5 or 6 weeks old. I will always be her Baby, and I like it dat way!

I'm grouchy wif meowmie. I was Diary ob da day on Septempurr 26, but meowmie didn't check owr e-mews & nefur saw until tewday. Grrrrr.... bad meowmie!
Meowmie say I cattinue tew surprise herz. I just not ready fur da bridge yet. I'm not sure who shud take ovur luffin meowmie. Should it bees Dusk or Desiree? Or efun Isis, but she is not as cuddly. I like da ideer of Clarisse as da new Alpha kitteh, but she is Paw-Paw's luffer kitteh, not meowmie's. I needs to make sure dat meowmie gets propurr luffin when I leefs.
Meentimez, I still eating & drinking. Still some gurgly, but da treats help a bit. Meowmie said da V werd, sumfing about going to get a test done next week. Oh, no - more pokies.
But she also say dat she gonna stay home somes starting Furday, so I will get to purr-gurgle fur her & sleep on da chair next to her, so I will be happy wif dat.
Yep - still here, on da Earth. Not at the Bridge yet - I'll wait awhile for dat.
Meowmie has increased my pill she says. What pill? All I get is treats!
(From Sandy - shhh... she doesn't know the pill is in the treat. Pill pockets - great product!)
What meowmie? What mew say? She smiling... hmmm, me thinks she's getting sneaky. Me thinks she's been around kitties tew much.
Any way, I get a little gurgly now & then, so meowmie got da OK from da docfur tew gif me more treats. They are special & yummy - no ofur kitty gets them. Oh, they get other treats, but that's so they dontz try to steal my special one.
I'm still singing my mousie song fur meowmie. Mew can now see me wif my new toy, singing my song on my page. Meowmie say she gotz her own new toy & soon she will haf a video so mew can all HEAR me sing tew. I luffs my new toy. I efun sleeps on top of it so Dusk can't steal it.
I am furry happy, though sumtimes sore. The arthur-i-tis & new-rop-a-thee seem to be fighting wif each other to see which one is gonna hurt more. But I still eat my food, drink my water, & use da box when I hafta, so it's all good. Meowmie sumtimes efun gifs me a little milk or sum of herz food too. She say she not gonna worry ifn its good fur me. She say it time a old kitty like me gets what I like, not what is healthy. I'm all about that.
So, I will just settle down now fur a nap & purr some, gurgly as that is. It's all about catitude, aftur all.
I haf been breefing funny, meowmie says. She took me to da docfur & he did stuff, listening to me, poking me, & taking funny picfurs of my inside parts. Den he made meowmie cry.
He said things like "enlarged heart", "windpipe pushed up", & "fluid in da lungs". Stuff I didn't unfurstand. But meowmie did, & it made her cry. A lot. And he made me growl & hiss. A lot.
Then he stuck me wif a sharp ting & told meowmie I could go home. And to call him in a mornin to say how I was breefing then.
I little while later, I was breefing betfur. I looked fur my toy & found a purple mousie. It has been a long time since I sung my mousie song fur meowmie, so I sung furry loud. It made her cry more, so I stopped. She said, "No Baby Kitty! Don't stop!" So I sung some more. Silly meowmie - songs are fur enjoying, not crying.
Last night, meowmie came home & gave me a new treat & it made my breefing OK agin. I heard her say sumfing to Paw-Paw about lay-six & making me comfurtable. Well, I dontz know what lay-six is, but if it's my new treats, I'm happy wif it. And I'm defurnitely good wif being comfurtable.
I'm now sleeping betfur, but I seem to haf to use da litterbox an awful lot. I'm walking around more & visiting other rooms, so meowmie is smiling now. Well, I think she likes my new treats too. Meowmie says I'm down to my last life - but I'll just see about that. I think I haf at least 2 left yet.
