indoors Arrival Story: Grief stricken after my sweet Abby went to Rainbow Bridge, I had no plans to get another cat. There's a saying, *the former cat sends the new cat* -- my angel Abby definitely had other plans for me! One month after Abby went to the Bridge, I learned that a friend was dying from cancer and desperately seeking a home for her two cats. It was only a few days after I learned of their plight that I made up my mind to adopt Kaci and her sister Miss Mittens. It was one of the best decisions I've ever made! Bio: Kaci is my sweet little sunshine girl. She's a sweet, affectionate snuggle-bug who is blessed with a sunny and happy disposition. She adores attention and being fussed over. In addition to being very outgoing and friendly, she's super-curious about everything and just a tad bit stubborn at times. She wasn't very vocal until recently but lately seems to enjoy talking about everything. Lives Remaining: 8 of 9 Forums Motto: Mommy thinks i'm adorable!

Kaci was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism in December 2008 and has been taking methamazole for her hyperT. In November 2010, she was diagnosed with suspected Pyelonephritis (kidney infection) and successfully treated with antibiotics. She is now dealing with chronic kidney disease (CRF). In November 2011, it was discovered that she has a heart problem called Mitral Valve Regurgitation, probably caused by her hyperthyroidism.

So, there I was yesterday afternoon, napping in the comfy condo “cave” on my treehouse in mommy’s bedroom. The next thing I knew, there was a lot of noise and 2 strange men appeared in “my” bedroom! That's because mommy and grandma had new beds delivered to our house yesterday afternoon. The deliverymen made several trips back and forth and took away the old beds and brought up the new ones.
Those deliverymen scared me! I wanted out of the room but each time I poked my head out of the cave on the cat tree, they came back and I retreated back into the cave. Trapped, that’s what I was! How scared was I? I peed on myself, that’s how much! Please understand. . . it wasn't a lot! . . . just enough to wet myself and make me stinky and to stink up my blankets.
Mommy didn’t realize I had stinky pee pee on my butt until an hour or so later when she picked me up to give me my subq fluid treatment. She could smell it and told me I stink! She gave me the fluids but let me go after my treatment without cleaning me up. She was unprepared to clean me and had to gather the towels and things.
Meanwhile, I went upstairs to investigate the new beds. Mommy had put a brand new comforter on her new bed. I jumped onto the bed to investigate the bed. So there I was, with my stinky pee pee butt, sitting on the new comforter on mommy’s new bed when she came to find me! Oh, you should have seen the look on mommy’s face when she saw me! And you should have seen the look on MY face when she leaned over and smelled the place where I’d been sitting! Crazy lady! She said fortunately she didn't smell anything stinky and was very relieved.
Mommy took the blankets out of my condo cave, picked me up and carried me downstairs. She washed my rear end (and I was NOT happy about that!) and put the blankets in the washing machine.
I smell nice again. My blankets are clean and soft. And I love our new bed and the new comforter!
It was a cold and rainy Sunday 6 years ago when mommy first met Miss Mittens and me and adopted us. It’s a Sunday again but today is a bright and sunny day. :)
Thank you for your pawmails, pretty mementos and pictures, rosettes and comments!
Please stop by and help yourself to all the cake, cookies and catnip lemonade you can eat!
Kovo was the first to put a chat box on his page, followed by the gorgeous tortie sisters Hazel Basil and Farrah Jacqua. Then the next thing you know, Zack and Zoey put chat boxes on their pages too! The lovely Zoey wrote about it in her diary today.
Reading Zoey’s diary reminded me of when Miss Mittens and I had chat boxes on our pages. They were once popular on Catster. It was fun chatting and leaving short messages in friends’ chat boxes. I can’t remember why we took them off our pages.
Now I have a chat box on my page again! You can leave a message at any time. If I'm not around or we haven’t seen each other for awhile or you happen to be strolling about and stop by my page, please leave a message saying hello.
And if you get a chat box too, let me know and I’ll stop by your page.
