Thank CAT I am almost done with this crazy griseofulvin medicine business. I don't know who that pharmacy thinks their kidding, not all kitties like the taste of peanut butter! Not to mention daddy is a very bad shot, and has squirted that stuff all over my face rather than in my mouth where mommy says it belongs. It is making me all better though! My hair is growing back on my ear, and I am just as happy as can be. I am eating so good and my coat is looking so shiny and full! I am almost 100% healthy, it is SOOOOOO great! When I get all better my Aunt Caitlin is going to bring her new kitty, Beau Beau over so that we can meet each other and play. I am so excited to have a new friend since mommy thinks I get so lonely sometimes. She said that once she finds a breeder that she really really likes, she is going to get a kitten for me to be best friends and roommates with! Oh boy am I excited! It's about time my pawrents expanded the family - being an only kitty can be so boring!

Mommy talked to the Vet today who prescribed me some medicine after Mommy called and complained that I wasn't given anything during my appointment yesterday. The vet prescribed me grisefulvin which is a liquid medicine that have have to take for a whole 30 days. It tastes funny too. It is something called "Peanut Butter" and once mommy squirted it into my mouth, I kept licking my chops. I'm not quite sure how I feel about it...but afterwards Mommy gave me some treaters, so she made it all better. Only 29 more days left of this peanut butter business!

Oh no no no no no. It just can't be true. Mommy and daddy took me to the vet today and they said that my scabby ear is the ring wormies. Grossies. The doc said that I probably had the wormsies when mommy adopted me from the shelter, but that I didn't show signs until a few weeks ago.
The doc said that the fungus spray mommy was using was good enough to get rid of it. Mommy thinks the vet is wrong because I am a Himalayan and she read that sometimes it is very hard for us Himmys to get rid of the ring wormsies because of our fur. I'm a good girl and don't ever scratch my scab, but mommy thinks that she should call another vet to see if I need some medicine to help it go away. I don't want to take any more medicine, though. I don't like taking pills; not one bit!
But in other news, I weigh a whole 6 pounds and 7 ounces! That means that mommy and daddy made me gain a whole pound and a half. The doc said that was very good and that I shouldn't be more than 7 pounds since I'm a little cat. All that Wellness food is sure making me a healthy kitty...well, minus the wormsies anyway!!

Oh my gosh, what a weekend! Mommy and daddy went away and Grandma Cindy watched me the whole time. She fed me snackers and played with me all the time. I was such a good good kitty for grandma, I can't wait for her to come back and visit. I sure missed mommy and daddy, but they called me and talked to me on the phone so I felt better.
When mommy got home, she noticed that the scab on my ear is not getting any better. Mommy is really worried about it even though I don't ever scratch it. The doctor told mommy I didnt have any ear mites, fleas, or wormsies when I was at the vet a few weeks ago. Mommy thinks she may have to take me back to the vet just to double check. She is hoping it isn't allergies because she just changed all my food to Wellness, which is supposed to be very good for me. I hope my scab goes away soon because I sure don't want mommy worrying about me so much.
In the mean time, Mommy bought some spray for my ear that is supposed to help with "fungus" and wounds. Hopefully that will help a little bit. But what I am excited about is my new toy. It's got something called "cat nip" inside and it makes me CRAZY. I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! I just roll all around on the ground and rub up against my new toy. I think it is even better than my mousey! In fact, I think I'm gonna go find that new toy right now...

So Mommy came home today and started cleaning up our house really good and said that Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Steve were going to be babysitting me for a few days while Mommy and Daddy go visit Grandpa Nick in Iowa for a few days. Grandma Cindy and Grandpa Steve have been coming over a lot lately to play so that I am used to them being at my house while Mommy and Daddy will be gone. I like Grandma Cindy, she feeds me lots of treaters, so I think it will be okay...but I'm a little scared. Mommy said that Grandma and Grandpa probably won't spend the night with me, so I hope I don't get lonely at night! Why can't I come to Iowa too???

Oh meow gosh! You have noooo idea how long I have been waiting to write my first Beulah Blog. Ever since my mommy and daddy adopted me three weeks ago, mommy has promised me that I would be able to write to all my new friends on Catster after she finished studying for something called the Bar Exam. She said it was really really important, but I have my doubts. Anyway, mommy took her silly test and after all the crying, tears and all this talk about how she probably failed, she finally got her behind away from the computer and in front of the television so that I can paw paw all over this keyboard. It has been such an a-meow-zing three weeks in my new home. It was only 22 days ago that I was on lock-down in the local animal shelter, living off Purina Cat Chow, pacing around my cage, battling for attention with the likes of “Ginger” the doe-eyed kitten with the cutesy face. I tell you, I was living the hard-knock life and being treated like I was some kind of ANIMAL!!!! Oh wait…
Well the Purina Cat Chow was no picnic, let me tell you! And “Ginger”?? Well that cat may have been cute, but I had tons of fluff to compete with those milky melt-your-heart eyes. Now, you see…I almost wasn’t adopted when mommy walked into the kitty room because I was hiding in a shoebox the shelter put in my cage. Apparently mommy saw my picture on a website and fell in love with me (like I said, I’ve got all this fluffy fur going for me, and not to toot my own horn, but I’m purrrrty irresistible). She was determined to be the first person at the animal shelter the next day to pick me up and rescue me, but when she and her friends arrived it looked like I was already gone. Mommy’s heart sank into her chest and she almost started to cry until her friend saw some fur poking out the top of the shoebox where I was sleeping. Once mommy saw me in my cage she knew that she wanted me, and when the lady working at the shelter woke me up to meet her, I knew that mommy belonged to me. I just kept encircling mommy and meowing while she pet my small little body. Ginger just stared in jealousy from her cage, that little attention-magnet (no worries though, friends; she was adopted by another family soon thereafter). Before I knew it I was in a box in the backseat of my mommy’s car being pet by her purrty friends on my to my new home.
When I got to my new home, I had developed a nasty upper respiratory infection from the shelter. Mommy was worried because I kept sneezing all over the place and stopped eating my dry food. Mommy and daddy took me to the Vet and they checked me all out. The doc said that I needed some medicine to make me all better and said that I needed to gain some weight. Mommy knew I was too thin because I only weighed 5 pounds and mommy could feel my spine and hips when she would pet me (blasted Purina Cat Chow!). The nice doc gave me some wet food which I ate right off her finger and took my medicine like a big girl. I even let the doc give me a rabies shot with no problems! Mommy said I was such a good girl. When we got back home, mommy and daddy would make me sit in the bathroom with them while they showered to give me a “steam” to make me breathe better, and they gave me stinky wet food so that I would eat.
After about a week and a half of medicine, a lot of love, purrs, and petting, I was back to my old-self. I was running and attacking all the mices that my Auntie Ryan and kitty boyfriends Spiderman and Obe bought for me. I love, love, love, love playing with my mices! Plus grandma Cindy brought me over a bunch of old toys that her angel kitty, Teddy left behind. Mommy and daddy play with me all the time; I am such a lucky-ducky kitty cat. Plus I have gained a whole pound! Mommy switched me to Wellness food and I have been eating up a storm! Mommy said I have only one more pound to gain and then I will be healthy again. I tell you, furr-ends, life is good for the Beulah; life is purrty purrty good. Until next time!
