DDP ~ Thanks Friends!

Wow..I'm a diary pic today! Thanks diary gal and to all the other pawsome diary pics.

Thanks to all my dear friends who were so kind to leave me some wonderful pmails, rosettes and comments, I had a pretty wonderful day. Thanks also to Wally & Family, and Tabatha & Family for the pawsome mementos. Mom will add them to my page.

My Grandpaw went back home yesterday, so now I'm back down to my regular feeding schedule *Shucks*

We helped Mom put the Christmas tree up, I was very good, but my Brother, Oh Boy is he Trouble!

Thank you all for making my day extra special.

Thankful

Happy day after turkey day! I hope all my friends had a pawsome Thanksgiving. We had a pretty cool turkey day. My Grandpaw is here visiting with us and he gets up at the crack of dawn to feed us, shush please don't tell Mom we're getting fed an extra meal, plus Grandpaw fills the bowl to the tippity-top where its overflowing. Maybe he'll give my Mom some tips! I sure like when company comes.

Hope all my friends had a Happy Thanksgiving and a great weekend ahead, the windows are open and we're enjoying this lovely weather!

My Birthday/Gotcha Day

Meow Friends..
I've been having a relaxing summer and yesterday I celebrated my Gotcha Day and Birthday. It was a wonderful relaxing day, except for a little asthma attack. Mommy was reminiscing about the first day she saw me and how I came to live here. You see, I use to live across the street with a Family that moved away not far from here. Mommy could never understand why that Family didn't take me with them, but their loss was Mommy's gain. Around that time, Mommy saw me several times sneaking around looking for food, I was sort of shy but when she tried to offer me treats I came running to her rubbing up against her purring away, then I left. The next day I saw her knelling down working in her garden and I climbed right up on her back giving her kisses. I tried to thank her for the treats and to show her how nice and friendly I was. I think that's what got my paws thru the front door, cause Mommy tells me that story all the time, and how happy she was and is that I'm here with her. Mom didn't let me in right away because she thought someone sure must be looking for me. She asked the neighbors about me but no one knew anything. During that time, I use to find her cool mice and would leave them at the front door, I got into a bad fight with another kitty and that's when Mom took me to the Vet and got me fixed up. I was an inside kitty again, but longing to go out and prowl. Eventually I got use to being indoors, who wouldn't, right?! That was many years ago, and I'm still just as loveable and gentle in my ole furty years.

Yesterday, Mommy went out in the yard and trimmed my catnip back and I helped her. The stems were nice and long and she put them up on the deck where I took a long nap in them. Then Daddy bought me some cool cup cakes with whip cream on top and left them on the counter for me. Mom and I were out in the yard for a stroll and when we came back inside my Brother "Ember" was on the counter licking off the frosting. Boy! I was happy that Daddy bought more than one! I shared one with him and also let him have some of my catnip, he's a baby after all.

I hope every one is having a good summer. I want to thank all my friends for stopping by my page and sending me sweet Birthday & Gotcha day messages, gifts, rosettes and pmails. I love you all, you have made my day even more special.

With much love;

Happy Memorial Day Weekend

Hi Friends;
Spring was a fun time, I kept busy watching and helping Daddy make his vegetable garden and also watching the birdies make their nests. I've been banned from the yard for awhile because of those birdie nests. Mom said when the birdies fly the coup I can go in the yard. I told Mommy I'd be happy to watch them for her, she said no of course.

I went to the cardiologist this week for my check up with Dr. Miller. I was such a good boy when he did a echocardiogram, EKG and checked my blood pressure. I'm doing better, I still have a mild low grade murmur and my blood pressure is stable compared to my October visit. I'm still to take my meds for my blood pressure to keep it stable and my asthma meds. I don't mind much cause I like the pill pockets. I still have to go to my regular vet soon for blood work. The cardiologist said if I need a tooth cleaning I need to avoid a certain type of anesthesia, and to take antibiotics pre and post dentistry. I don't like the sound of that one bit! I think I'll try and find a good place to hide until then. I'm doing pretty good for an old furt!

I wish all my friends a happy, healthy and safe holiday weekend and Happy Summer!

The Big Five

I woke Mom up this morning and wanted to meow with her about a very special day. My Angel Brother Sammie & I are celebrating our 5th year here on Catster today. Time sure has flown by and we have made some pawsome friends. I told Mom I wanted to go out and smell the flowers and maybe visit my garden for some fresh catnip, it's coming up nicely, so I'm on my way, I hope my friends will stop by and have some cake, it's delicious.

Have a great weekend;

Happy March

Hi Friends and Happy March....
It's been busy here for the past few weeks and I'm doing pretty good. My Auntie from Florida visited with us. It's always nice when she visits cause she never comes empty handed and brought us some cute catnip toys and treats, she said she'll be visiting us again in the near future. I hope she sends us some Florida sunshine too. In other news, Mom was concerned about the recent wellness food recall. She checked the cans and they were all affected. Mom has returned all the food and thought it was a good time for me to have my 6 month health exam. They did the normal blood work and also checked the thiamine/Vitamin B1 level for any deficiency. We won't have those results back for about three weeks. In the meantime I'm taking a B1 supplement. I'm also happy too because my blood pressure was within the normal range. Thanks Catster and Hazel Lucy for keeping us informed. Mom said it's better to be safe than sorry.

Hope all my Catster friends have a good day!

I'm home

I got home last night. The Doc did get a pee pee sample from me yesterday and she just called to tell Mommy that I have cystitis. I did a few little pee pees today and I'm eating and drinking lots of water too. I also have to take a liquid pain med for a couple of days. I'm taking all my meds like a good little boy. My brother missed me and has been licking and cleaning me all day, I wish he would stop though, enough is enough already!

There's no place like home!

Thanks to all my friends for purring for me. I really do appreciate it!

Purring for pee pees

I haven't been able to go pee pee and I've been crying and restless. Mommy has been watching me like a hawk and ran me over to the Vet and they decided to keep me there until tonight. I'm going to get fluids and pain meds. The Doc hopes to get a pee pee sample too. I have FLUTD so occasionally it flares up from time to time. If you can spare some purrs I surely would appreciate it. Mommy wanted to make sure I was comfy so she dropped off my soft cuddle blanket that I love so much. Hopefully the plan is I should be home by 8:00 tonight. Here's hoping I can do a nice pee pee.

Love to all;

My adventure in the snow

Daddy bought this really soft blanket that Mommy just loves and we've been cuddling every night. I decided to take it over, and call it all mine. It's nice and warm and feels like a soft cloud. Anyway, I've been suffering from cabin fever and long to go sit on my deck just for a few minutes, but Mommy says it's too cold plus it's a little covered in snow. Daddy said if he made me a little path that I could go sit on the deck. The snow doesn't bother me, I kinda like it. So yesterday Dad made me a nice pathway, but I wanted to go out in the yard to the garden and visit my favorite tree. Daddy also made me a nice pathway to the garden. I finally got the chance to go out in the yard, but I didn't use the pathway Daddy made me, I decided I wanted to venture out into the deeper snow where my belly even touched the snow and I liked it. I told Mommy and Daddy I was pretty used to the snow beings I was an outside kitty long ago. I finally got to where I wanted to go and found my tree and scratched it for a long while, and sniffed and sniffed at some of the grass that was finally starting to show up. I made it to the garden and jumped to the tippidy top where I felt like I could see everything around me. I didn't want to go in just yet, but the spoilsports made me. I was so happy to go out just for a little while. The best part was when Mom made chicken soup and I had a nice warm bowl of chicken broth to warm me up. I'm looking forward to more snow, but Daddy said he had enough shoveling for now. I guess it's back to my nice warm blankie.
Hope all my friends are staying warm too!
