Arrival Story: Some neighbors came to us one day, and they had a black kitten with them. It seems that the kittens family had moved, and left their animals behind to fend for themselves. Our neighbors asked us if we could take the little tyke in, as they knew that we loved animals. We figured that our tom Ebonezer had fathered the litter anyway, so we took in the little waif. We named him E.J. (short for Ebonezer Jr.) He was about 4 or 5 weeks old at the time. We instantly fell in love with him. He learned to play "fetch" early on. If you would throw a wadded up paper bag rolled into a ball, he would attack it, and eventually bring it back to you for you to throw for him again. When he was big enough, we let him go outside with George, our older grey tabby. After Muffy died in September 2004, George became the matriarch of our fur family. E.J. followed George around everywhere. George even taught the kitten to hunt. Boy, does EJ love to hunt! EJ is friends with every cat in our family. We sure do love him! He has the shiniest, silkiest coat. Mom loves to stroke him from head to toe any chance that she gets.

Bio: Since George crossed ofur the Rainbow Bridge in January 2007 (he and I were attacked by two Pit Bulls, and George died of his injuries) I have become the matriarch of our cat furmily. I have earned the respect of my younger siblings. Since I am the only feline allowed to go outside, my sibs long to hear about my hunting skills and accomplishments, so I tell them many stories about my escapades outdoors.
The love of my life is Ashley from the East Coast. She is a beautiful grey tabby whom I love dearly. I call her my little "Nature Girl." I wish that we could spend more time togefur! We spend as much time as we can togefur on Catster, so Catster is Number One in my book!

Well, we did the Vet thing again three days ago. Anofur trip to the White Coat in the cat carrier. Anofur nauseating trip in the car. I got even with my pawrents this time...I puked all ofur inside of the carrier, and also aimed projectiles through the door of the carrier, onto the car seat! MOL! Boy, were Meowmy and Dad surprised when they saw that! Heheheeeeeeeeee!
I had to go back to the Vet because my Blood Glucose was too high when they tested me in July. At that visit it was 335. Supposed to be under 200. Meowmy and Dad were supposed to increase my dosage of meds, and bring me back in one month fur anofur test. That brings us to Mondays visit. Dr. Henderson tested me and it was way too high. She asked my pawrents to come back in two hours, and she would test me again. She said that I get so upset by the car ride to her office, that that could be making my number so high. She wanted me to calm down, and she would test me again in two hours. Pawrents returned, and I was poked a second time...really folks, wasn't once enough? MOL! This time my Blood Sugar was 475! And this number was five hours AFTER I had eaten, and AFTER I had emptied my stomach competely hours before the second test! Dr. Henderson told my pawrents to increase my dosage again, and bring me back in one month fur anofur test. I hope that taking those pills will once again bring my sugar under control. If not, I might have to start getting Insulin injections twice a day. I don't know about you, but I do NOT like getting shots! I am trying to avoid this at all costs.
If you have some spare time, could you purray fur me? I really need to get my Blood Sugar under control. I would apurrciate any POP you could send my way too...thank you SO much!
Purrs of Love,
E.J.

Yuck! I had to go back to the Vet again because my Diabetes is no longer under control. It was only fur a blood test thank goodness. Dr. Henderson tested my blood glucose and it was 380. Not good! Last month it was 335, and she found that alarming. Since March I have been doing really good, my numbers have been in the 200's. The Vet said this was acceptable. When my number shot up to 335 last month Dr. Henderson said we would pawbably have to change my medication dosage to get my Blood Glucose back down. She asked Meowmy to bring me back fur testing in one month instead of efurry two months like we have been doing. So, we came back this month to check my blood glucose to see if it would go down. Instead, it went up. Double darn!
Dr. Henderson told Meowmy that I would have to take 2 1/2 tablets of Glipizide efurry twelve hours now, and she will check my blood in one more month to see if that does the trick. I will keep you all posted after I get the results.
Remember a few months back when I told you about my furiend Big Harry, and how well he was doing with his Diabetes? Well, something happened furry suddenly, and he crossed the Rainbow Bridge on 6/29/12. His pawrents are devastated, and so are all of his furiends. Big Harry was larger than life, and efurrybody loved him! All of his furiends and family are reeling from the shock of his passing. Purrlease pray fur efurryone that is hurting. We are gonna miss you Big Harry!!! You will nefur be furgotten...
Sad Purrs,

Wow! What an honor! I was chosen as Diary Of The Day today! MOL! Thank you Diary Gal! Meowmy was tickled pink when she found out this morning that I had been chosen. (I nefur knew that humans got their pink color from being tickled...) I was outside hunting when she found out. She ran to the door, and beckoned me to come inside. She excitedly told me about this honor, and then she doled out some of my favorite canned food on a dish for me to celebrate. (I am supposed to eat only prescription diet food, but Meowmy splurged and gave me some of the high octane stuff!!!) Meowmy praised me ofur and ofur again while I ate my celebratory meal. All of this for writing in my Diary? Well, I am just going to have to make a habit out of this, and begin to write in it more often!
A lot of my furiends helped me celebrate my good fortune today. Big Harry, Max, and Manytoes sent me photos to put on my page...Thank you men! In addition to that, I was sent the following Rosettes for my DOTD status:
Manytoes------Bird Rosette
Buddie--------Blue Rosette
Grace---------Bunny Rosette
Milo DB#73A---Ladybug Rosette
THANKS to all of you for showing me some love today. I had a terrific day thanks to all of you! I am so lucky to have you for furiends...
Purring Out Loud,
E.J.
