22 and Counting!

We aren't out here a lot anymore because we just don't like some of the changes Catster made.

But I dropped in to say YES! I'm 22 and still healthy. My main picture is from my 21st birthday. I'm sure Mama's plotting to get me to pose for a new one today. Don't know why - I still look the same.

I sleep more than when I was young, but I still run sometimes and get one of the other cats to chase me. And I sing, but never when Mama has a video camera handy. MOL! During the last year I even moved from Texas to Missouri. This is the 4th house I've lived in with Mama and Daddy.

I'm a little bummed because it's cloudy this morning and a major part of my day is laying in the sun, but I've got a quilt so I'll be warm enough.

Everyone enjoy my birthday, because I plan to!! And I'd like to wish a very happy birthday to my doggy friend Ethan who shares my birth date. He's just 1 though.

I also suspect angels Rocky Ann and Murray1 will drop in to see me and I'm looking forward to that. Hugs to all my friends and my special significant other, Jacob!

How I Stay Healthy at Almost 22 Years Old!

It's important to stay healthy if you are an older cat like me and especially a male who can have urinary tract issues.

I swear by the yummy food made by California Natural. It costs a little more, but is so good for me. It even has cranberries to help keep my urinary tract healthy.

And there's a really cool store near our house where we can buy it so we never run out. Currently we bought a bag of no grain food because Allie has kitty celiac disease and it's really helped her too! We all chow down when it hits the bowl because it tastes so good.

Even the dogs eat the doggie food made by California Natural and they are healthy too!

A Story

There was a technology company where the founder had a really good idea. He was pretty successful, but he wanted to be rich.
So he increasingly ignored the customers who had been very loyal, always looking for something bigger and better. The more customers who left, the more he had to try to get the “big break”.

It got to the point where that’s all he thought about, so he ignored what his employees were doing and they were doing some crazy stuff! So they were driving even more people away. And he had no idea they were doing it.

He lost his respect for people in general, and was extremely stressed out all the time.

So what happened to him?

Well he got to the point where there was NO monthly recurring money coming in. He couldn’t pay his employees and he couldn’t pay his taxes. The bigger sales he’d hoped for heard about his bad reputation so they stayed away too.

Because he wasn’t paying attention, his accountant embezzled money from him.

But then he got very lucky. Mama walked in and bought his company. She was able to turn it around so it’s a nice little company not worrying all the time about being rich. She paid off his debts, and he had enough left to start a new business doing something else.

He said he learned what was important in life, and went back to attending his church.

So this particular story has a happy ending.

FDA Investigating Nutro

According to Consumer Affairs the FDA is investigating Nutro because so many pet owners have claimed their pets got very sick or died after eating the food.

I have no personal experience with Nutro, but I'm worried about my friends and any other cats and dogs that might eat it and get sick.

Bad Food

All day I've been begging for food, but the dish had food in it! So Dad emptied it and put a different kind in and we all ate like we were starving.

He just opened a new bag of our regular food and none of us would eat it. So we think something's wrong with it. This is the 2nd time we've gotten bad food from the place we used to trust.

I think we'll be changing again. Mama doesn't trust them now, and we take no chances since Murray got sick.

Now Mama would blame my flojectiling on the food but since I refused to eat it, it's unlikely.
