He left some big pawprints in each of our hearts. We are all still in shock. Please remember Auntie Barbi and Unkie Rob and all the sad siblings that Cocoa has left behind to mourn and miss him. Cocoa was and is very special to my meowmy... she always loved to hear his cute little meows (sometimes very loud) as he chatted when Auntie Barbi and Meowmy were on the phone chatting. Rest in Peace, dear and special furiend. You will never be far from our hearts.

She went to FB first and saw the posting about Hazel Lucy. The next hour we all spent our time crying and praying for Hazel Lucy and her wonderful meowmy Julie. Hazel Lucy and her meowmy were and are such beautiful and caring souls who started the wonderful Purr Threads on Catster. Hazel Lucy touched all of our hearts in such a special way and she will always hold a very special place in our hearts and in the hearts of so many others. True love never dies and we do truly love Hazel Lucy and thank her for being a most special part of our lives. Please keep Hazel Lucy and her meowmy Julie in your purrs and prayers during this sad and difficult time. We know that it is never easy to say our earthly goodbyes. We know that our lives will be reunited again one day and that, while absent from the earth, they are always present in our hearts. We wanted to write yesterday but our meowmy just could not gather herself to help us. Hazel Lucy and Julie hold a very special place in our hearts and we found ourselves too devastated to write. We still find ourselves shocked and deeply saddened but we know that Hazel Lucy is free of her earthly pain and is healthy again and is now happily reunited with her beloved furhusband Buddie. What a special reunion that was. Hazel Lucy, we will forever love you and are so blessed to call you our furiend. Our meowmy is blessed, also, to call your meowmy a special friend. You are both dearly loved.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/711456 Mon, 14 Feb 2011 15:05:30 PST Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/711456 Oh my kitty cats!

Well, Meowmy is miffed with my dad. You see, he is puttering around outside rather than getting those settling cracks repaired.

He said, "To my beautifur wife! I ... Tux! sent me a pot of gold. He said, "To my beautifur wife! I'm such a lucky lad to have found you! All my love furever, Tux" What a lucky girl I am to have such a wonderpurr furhusband in my life. I must apologize for few entries of late. Ever since November, Meowmy has had a full plate. *scratches head because the plate is actually empty* There has not been much time for our diaries. She has had little more than time to try to check daily to see if our furiends and loved ones have received honors. Meowmy has been busy with the holidays, at first, then illnesses in the human furmily, and helping care for other people's kitties. What? Pffftttt. Our furiend who is almost 90 has been unable to care for his three kitties and Meowmy has had to go over there daily to feed and water the kitties and change the litter. Our furiend's wife is in a nursing home and he had a bad back. He had pinched nerves from collapsing vertabrae. He had something injected last week to build up the area and lift the pressure and he is walking better but not able to care for his 14 year old cat who is showing signs of early renal problems. He has a cat who is about 7 or 8 who has a heart murmur and a calico who is about 6 years or so. Meowmy says he will soon have to find homes for his babies and it pains her heart. She is afraid that this man's son will take them to the pound and we all know what will happen if that takes place. It gives my meowmy lots of stress and worries. Meowmy was caring for another three cats while their pawrents were on a 9 day cruise. Meowmy says she doesn't mind. Tomorrow is my meowmy's birthday. I won't tell you how old she really is but let's say dirt is younger. MOL. Guess what my meowmy got for her birthday? She finally got her new kitchen countertops. She got granite and loves it already... even though the spigot can not be put in until tomorrow. Meowmy has been busy stripping wallpaper for a long while now as time allows. Then my dad will patch the cracks from the foundation settling and then Meowmy is painting the walls. This will take months to complete. So, some of this is why Meowmy can't find the time for us to paw our diaries like we would like to do. Today, Meowmy finally found out why we have NOT gotten Catster notices. It seems that her Catster notices are being bounced by Yahoo. Meowmy got in touch with Yahoo and it was determined that it is a Catster issue. So, Meowmy tried ALL day long to reach HQ and got the message. Late this evening she finally reached a human who told her to contact Catster via email. Hazel Lucy's meowmy had told my meowmy that is what would happen and had given Meowmy the email to do it. Pffffftttt. What next? Wishing a Happy St. Patrick's Day to all my furiends.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/654939 Fri, 12 Feb 2010 16:45:21 PST Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/654939 A special new furiend named Snowflake made his journey to the Bridge this afternoon. Snowflake had ... Snowflake made his journey to the Bridge this afternoon. Snowflake had survived a serious surgery and was making progress, we thought. He took a turn for the worst yesterday. Actually, Wednesday, the vets noticed a decline and yesterday his heart rate was slow and his blood pressure was low. Today, he was even worse and his sad meowmy went to visit him, along with Auntie Barbi. His meowmy had to make the decision to allow him to go to the Bridge during the visit. Snowflake fought a very valiant battle to overcome his health issues. He was just so weak from everything he went through. Please keep Snowflake and his furmily in your purrs and prayers, especially his grieving meowmy.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/651939 Sat, 30 Jan 2010 11:28:21 PST Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/651939 It has been a while since my last entry. We have been running behind for most of the year of 2009. T ... Baby G was found to have a lump between her shoulder blades on the 18th of this month. It had to be surgically removed and then biopsied. Thank goodness it was benign. It was a reaction to an antibiotic injection (she got on December 22nd) called a postinjection panniculitis. That sounds really disgusting to me. On the 25th, my handsome furhusband Tux sent me Champagne Glasses! He said, "Hello Mrs. Tux, are you enjoying wedded bliss? I certainly am! Jarvis says married life has made me silly, like I have little cartoon hearts & birdies floating around my head all day. I told him just to wait it will happen to him too! Love, Tux" I am the luckiest cat on Catster to have the most loving and handsome Tux as my furhusband. I, too, have those hearts and birdies floating around in my head. I love being Mrs. Tux.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/648145 Mon, 11 Jan 2010 12:31:32 PST Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/648145 I am now Mrs. Tux!

We were joined in catrimony in a beautifur sunset wedding on a Mexican beach. My Tux thinks of effurything. He is the ultimate romantic and I am the luckiest girl on Catster to have this handsome hunk of love. I have been furry busy since my elopement and, also, my typist has fallen WAY behind on effurything... the whole month of December, things have been like this for my typist. Let me begin with the 30th of December. I received three gifties. Tux and his pawsome furmily sent me a blue cupcake. They said, "Time to celebrate, Daddy got a job! The owner of the glass company hired him on the spot & is even paying him a little more money than his previous job, he starts work on Jan. 18, 2010. What a way to ring in the new year! Love, Jarvis, Tux, Cleo" Yay! I am so happy that Tux' daddy found a job. *does the happy dance* It is so hard for so many humans these days. We know so many who have been relieved of their jobs. My furmily and I are so happy that Tux' daddy has a job now. Tux me a diamond ring. He said, "Sweet dreams my beautifur lady, I will be there bright and early in the morning to whisk you off to be my wife! Our plane will be landing in Mexico at 10:30 am, and our wonderfur adventure begins! Your ever adoring Tux" Gentleman Jack sent my furmily and me a purrty heart. He said, "Happy New Year pretty Clawdette to you and your family from Gentleman Jack and family" Yesterday, Serafina Tilly and Mafia Princess sent my furmily and me a purrty heart. They said, "We haven't been on much since mom got pregnant, but we wanted to say we love our friends!!! Love to all!!" I need to update on my human brofur Jim. He had a CT scan recently... before he went back to the lung specialist on December 23rd. Jim got both good and "iffy" news about his condition. The GOOD news is that the lungs are clear of the fungus! The "iffy" news is that he DOES have some scarring. We don't really know what that means for Jim down the road. His treatment with the antifungal will go on for another 6 or so months as the bone involvement takes much longer to cure. So, he is to return for another report on his progress with the fungus attacking his bones. He is still short winded but that may be the result of the scarring. The OTHER issue they found was that Jim has kidney stones waiting to "surprise" him and a cyst on his kidney that must be watched. Given the prognosis a few months back of terminal cancer, we are so very thankful and grateful to have gotten such wonderpur news about Jim. Thank you to effuryone who has prayed for my human brofur. Please continue to remember him in those purrs and prayers... but know he has come a long way into becoming more healthy.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/645327 Mon, 28 Dec 2009 18:39:20 PST Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/645327 My handsome hunk Tux and his pawsome furmily sent me a yummy cup of Hot Cocoa.

Many, many kitty kisses to you, I hope you have a wonderpurr holiday. maybe we should sneek away, and get married for New Years. I think its called elope! Love, Tux" On the 23rd, my sweet future sisfur-in-law Calamity and her precious furmily sent me a Christmas stocking.

She has been too busy to let u ... Karisma married the most handsome Mr. Lollycat McNoNo. Their wedding was beautifur, in spite of all the last minute glitches. The day before Thanksgiving, Hooch had to go back to the doc doc to be checked and that took a long time because they did blood work. At least, he didn't get a big bald spot this time. Meowmy asked them to only make a small place... so, you really don't notice it. Then she and my dad were preparing the Thanksgiving food for most of the week of Thanksgiving. That really took most of their time... they shopped for the food, prepared it to be cooked and then had to do the cooking. We had a CROWD for Thanksgiving. There were 18 strangers in our home. Yikes.... we hid... actually, Meowmy locked us in different rooms to keep those strangers away from all of us. The day after Thanksgiving, my pawrents left early in the morning and went to one of the local malls in that madness called Black Friday. The crowds were out and about. They did NOT go to shop but to meet up with a dear furiend and his furmily who had driven down from High Point for the day. When I say the day, I mean the day. It was dark when my pawrents returned home and our dinner was LATE. This is not cool. On Saturday, my pawrents left in the morning to go to the NC mountains (Saluda) for the day to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary of a family member. AGAIN, my pawrents were gone all day long and it was really LATE when they returned... well past dinner. Meowmy was even late by almost an hour giving Hooch his insulin. Even she was NOT a happy camper about that. On Sunday, my pawrents went to the same mall to meet up with three of my dad's cousins who had driven in for the anniversary pawty. So, they spent another day at the mall and got home at dinner time. Yesterday, Meowmy spent the day playing catch up with too many things and guess what? She did NOT get caught up. But Hooch made her promise to attend to our needs first this morning... so she is attempting to do just that. It will take us a while to get over our neglect! Pffffftttt!]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/633538 Fri, 6 Nov 2009 14:16:31 PST Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/633538 My handsome hunk Tux sent me a purrty heart.

As you know, my brofur Hooch has been sick since February 18, when he was ... Picasso's pawrents) to spend Saturday night with us. Before Hooch got sick, they had plans to either meet at I-95 and I-26 and have dinner - then Hooch got sick and they decided to meet in Columbia, SC IF Hooch was well enough for my meowmy to feel comfortable leaving him for about 5 hours - then, when Hooch did better on Friday, they decided on Friday evening that it would be okay for Auntie Barbi and Unkie Rob to come stay the night with us on Saturday night and have a nice visit! My meowmy got up Saturday morning and washed the clean sheets... you heard me right... she washed clean sheets because she wanted them to be really fresh. Then she made the bed up. She is also kitty sitting and she had to go get the instructions on how to manage the alarm system in the home where she is kitty sitting. Then she came home and had to clean all our 12 litter boxes... a daily ritual because we expect to use only clean litter boxes! Then she scrubbed out the bathroom upstairs and went to the grocery store to pick up a few items and when she got home Auntie Barbi and Unkie Rob were here. They sat around a chatted for a while and then decided they were hungry... so they went to a local Italian restaurant and had a nice dinner. After that, they all went to feed the kitties that my meowmy is watching for a week. When they came back from dinner, Auntie Barbi brought a package and we opened it. Guess what? Inside was a cool Kitty Tumbler and crinkle pad that will attach to a Cat Cube. Karisma hogged it immediately. And Auntie Barbi gave my meowmy a cool Disney character coffee mug and a lovely soy candle that has the Sheer White Cotton fragrance. It smells so nice. Now, Hooch was aware there was a strange man in our home. When it was time for bed, you won't believe what Hooch decided to do! He hissed at Unkie Rob. My meowmy was surprised at his behavior and so was my dad. Normally, he just stays out of sight if he is uncomfortable. I normally stay out and watch what is going on but keep a sharp eye out and sometimes my distance until I get familiar with the visitors. Then, this morning, they got up and had some coffee and went out to breakfast. When they got back, Auntie Barbi and Unkie Rob had to get on the road heading back to New Jersey. Hooch was well-behaved with Unkie Rob today BUT when my dad came in after saying good-bye to them, silly ol' Hooch hissed at him. He must have lost his kitty head for a moment. I just basically ignored the company. I left them alone and did my own kitty thing.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/567885 Fri, 6 Mar 2009 23:57:04 PST Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/567885 Mouse McMouser, Fuzz McFuzzer, Sushi McSusher and Sophie McSophie sent me a Four Leaf Clover.

When she arrived at the hospital, he was breathing very heavily and his mouth was open with his little tongue out. His chest congestion made it difficult for him to breathe. He was re-admitted to the hospital immediately and they put him back in the oxygen chamber and did another X-ray and gave him an injection to help clear the congestion from his chest and lungs. He will have more blood work done. His meowmy will find out this morning what to do next with her baby boy. PLEASE pray for Sammy to respond positively to the medicine and return to a more normal life again. Our purrs are with Sammy and his meowmy. Picasso's meowmy called me as soon as Sammy's meowmy told her he had collapsed and we worried and purred for Sammy and his meowmy. When Sammy's meowmy called back to tell Picasso's meowmy that Sammy was in oxygen and would be staying at the hospital, we felt a little relief. We were both so scared when Sammy collapsed. Our hearts are heavy right now but we are hopeful and praying Sammy will respond in a positive manner to his treatment.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/561676 Tue, 17 Feb 2009 07:05:54 PST Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/561676 We learned this morning that our furiend Sammy was diagnosed with Hypertrophic Cardiomyopathy.

We have lost too many dear furiends. But we belong to ... Fela Kiti and furmily. The box they sent contained lots of fun toys and three boxes in addition to the loose toys. We got 3 soft balls, a soft fish, a soft butterfly, a braided yarn string, 3 hard toys that roll and jingle, a soft mouse and a soft pouch, plus the 3 boxes. Now Karisma was happy with the loose toys, especially the white ball. She kept trying to play with that and we couldn't get to the boxes. Finally, we convinced her to move so we could open the 3 boxes. Inside them we found some Greenies for our doggies, a box of little tennis balls to chase and catnip bubbles. We have been busy playing with all our goodies from Fela Kiti and furmily effur since. Thank you for all the wonderpurr gifts. We opened the package from Tux, Cleo, Jarvis, Bella and Yogi and what a treat! Inside was 3 bags of Whisker Lickin's treats, 2 furry mice with feather tails, 3 feather balls (the feathers come off if you want them to doso), a fun play mouse and for our doggie brofurs Hunter and McDuff was a nice surprise. They both got soft, squeaky bone shaped toys. They love those.

The surgeries will cost around $5,000 and that is a lot of money for anyone today. The surgeries she will require on her ears are called a TECA (Total Ear Canal Ablation) & a Bullaosteotomy. They will remove her ear canals and seal them up. The Bullaosteotomy is the scraping of the Bulla, located behind the ear canal, to make sure no debri or infection is trapped in them before my ear canals are sealed up. There are some risks involved. The surgeries may leave her completely deaf and there is a possibility of permanent facial paralysis. Her surgeon promises her that this is very rare and only ever happened once with all of the TECA’s he’s performed. Please stop by her page for support and, if you can spare a little extra cash, there is an address where you may send money to help out. It is Catster approved. Let's rally behind Muppet to give her the chance at life she deserves.

I know there are others on Catster who joined the angels at the Bridge and for those we say our sad purrs but these three were the ones we knew and are the ones for whom we are grieving. I purr that all the furmilies will be given the peace and comfort they need at this sad time in their lives. Here is KINSEY'S diary entry today. I hope that she won't mind my using it to remember her. October 30th 2008 5:47 am First of all I want to thank everyone for the pmails, purrs, prayers and rosettes. I'm overwhelmed with the outpouring of love from my friends here at catster! Mommy will try very hard to answer all of you. I was diagnosed with a malignant tumor. I knew mommy was having a difficult time deciding what course of action to take; surgery and/or chemotherapy was suggested by the vet, but he also said that the chances of me surviving or living much longer than a few months was minimal. So, I chose for myself, so mommy wouldn't have to. During the night, I slipped quietly off to the rainbow bridge. I met my doggie brofur Corky for the first time! He is showing me around. :-) Again, thank you so much friends. I had 12 wonderful years here on earth, and I wouldn't trade a second of it. Love, Kinsey, angel girl Godspeed, sweet Kinsey. Tux sent me a Trick or Treat Ghost . He said, "Happy Halloween, Beautiful! I hope the ghostie didn't scare you too much. You can hold my paw if you need to. I love you and miss you! Oh, I gave the new dog a bloody nose yesterday, it was fun but meowmy says I have to be nice." Well, my meowmy tells me the same thing about all my siblings when I get a cattitude. But I have to say that we MUST show them who IS boss! Don't let that doggie boss you, my sweet Tux!]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/521351 Wed, 29 Oct 2008 18:00:43 PDT Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/521351 A furry special new angel cat is COTD!

Bob, Oakie, Boo, Willow, Simba, Sushi, Buttons and Bow and Sugar and Spice. They said, "We may not be around much lately but we want to wish all of our friends a Happy Halloween." Wishing them all a Happy Halloween. Also on the 24th, I got a collar from Sir Sonny Bono. He said, "Love your page, have a Purrfect day, Purrs" And on the 25th, I got a collar from Zachary. He said, "Oooh, Clawdette, thanks so much for my furever diamond! It is beautiful!" Today, I got a collar from Gabby. She said, "THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY D.D.P VERY SPECIAL" I haven't posted much since the 24th when a very special kitty was taken suddenly from us. His name is Macallan and I want him to know how much we think of him. He is the COTD today. Please let him know you are thinking of him. After Mac went to the Bridge, my furmily has been furry sad. Then yesterday, a sweet and loving girl crossed the Bridge with the help of her loving pawrents. Jazzi is now whole and healthy again but we will all miss her. She is shining at the Bridge and sharing her love and sweet ways now. Her meowmy will furever miss her.

Jazzi had recently lost her sight and was very scared and confused as a result of the sudden loss of her vision but she was adjusting to her new life. Early this morning, she was taken to emergency for oxygen assistance. It was found that she had fluid in her lungs.

And, have I effur told you how handsome my Tux happens to be? Yesterday, Minister Misty shared this touching piece in The Power of a Purr and Prayer. I saw my meowmy having so much trouble fighting back tears and then losing that battle and crying very sad sobs. Here is what Minister Misty shared. Dear Mom and Dad I died today. You got tired of me and took me to the shelter. They were overcrowded and I drew an unlucky number. I am in a black plastic bag in a landfill now. Some other puppy will get the barely used leash you left. My collar was too dirty and too small, and the lady took it off before she sent me to the Rainbow Bridge. Would I still be at home if I hadn’t chewed your shoe? I didn’t know what it was, but it was leather and it was on the floor. I was just playing. You forgot to get puppy toys. Would I still be at home if I had been housebroken? Rubbing my nose in what I did only made me ashamed I had to go at all. There are books on obedience teachers that would have taught you how to teach me to go to the door. Would I still be at home if I hadn’t brought fleas into the house? Without anti-flea medicine I couldn’t get them off me after you left me in the yard for days. Would I still be at home if I hadn’t barked? I was only saying, “I’m scared, I’m lonely, I’m here, I want to be your best friend”. Would I still be at home if I had made you happy? Hitting me didn’t make me learn how. Would I still be at home if you had taken the time to care for me and to teach me manners? You didn’t pay attention to me after the first week or so, but I spent my time waiting for you to love me.

Karma Kitty, Bobbi Boi, who will be 1 on July 28th and happened to be a DDP on July 23, Charlie Clarence and Punkin Pooh. They have such lovely pages and are such nice kitties. Check out their pages and add them to your corrals so you can check on them often. My pawrents got up early (4:30 am) today to take my human sisfur to the airport to fly back to Wichita. It has been so much fun having her here. My pawrents have not stopped since my sisfur arrived. They celebrated lots of birthdays. It seemed that they were constantly on the go or having people over. It has been a furry short week with my sisfur and we want her to come back soon for a longer visit. There just was not enough time to do effurything they wanted to do. I will miss my sisfur! Tux sent me champagne to celebrate my DDP honor for July 22. He had missed it and said better late than never. He is just too sweet to me. I know his meowmy stays furry busy and has so many other things going on now. I never thought a thing of it. He is too wonderpurr.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/485184 Tue, 22 Jul 2008 21:54:03 PDT Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/485184 Today Chantilly Lace ♥ )O( posted this on Calico & Tortie Darlings, which is one of my sisfur ... Chantilly Lace ♥ )O( posted this on Calico & Tortie Darlings, which is one of my sisfur's groups. Thank you for the posting! My meowmy's eyes leaked furry badly! A Pets Ten Commandments 1. My life is likely to last 10-15 years. Any separation from you will be painful. 2. Give me time to understand what you want of me. 3. Place your trust in me. It is crucial for my well-being. 4. Don’t be angry with me for long and don’t lock me up as punishment. You have your work, your friends, your entertainments, but I have only you. 5. Talk to me. Even if I don’t understand your words, I do understand your voice. 6. Be aware that however you treat me, good or bad, I will never forget it. 7. Before you hit me, before you yell at me, remember that I could hurt you, and yet I choose not to bite you. 8. Before you scold me for being lazy or uncooperative, ask yourself if something might be bothering me. Perhaps I’m not getting the right food, I have been in the sun too long, or my heart might be getting old or weak. 9. Please take care of me when I grow old or become sick. No matter how you feel, I’ll be there for you. 10. On the ultimate difficult journey, go with me please. Never say you can’t bear to watch. Don’t make me face this alone. Everything is easier for me if you are there, because I love you.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/484797 Tue, 22 Jul 2008 04:55:14 PDT Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/484797 *jumps up and down with delight after seeing that she is a DDP today!

This furry handsome fellow was thanking me fur tagging him and said he would play when his meowmy/typist has some extra time. Well, all of us know about our typists. Seems that they thing other things are more important than our needs. And that adorable Simon thinks I am a cutie patootie. *blushes* My Kimi artist extraordinaire furiend Alfie sent me a furever rainbow star with my beautipurr picture he made with his artistic talents. I put it as my main picture. Thank you so much for this pawsome picture. I really love it. And thank you for my special giggle with the picture of my DDP honor, dated July 21. I got a real hoot out of that! You are really the most pawsome furiend! My sweet furiend Kay sent me a purrty bluebird today. Kay had seen that I was a DDP and was the first to concatulate me for my honor and special. Kay is always so thoughtful to me and my furmily. She told me to stay cool. That could be furry hard today because it is supposed to be over 100 and the heat index will be awful. Thanks fur helping me celebrate, Kay. Kay turned 5 on July 10th. She has a lovely fishy page. If you didn't wish her birthday greetings, it isn't too late to do so! My pawsome furiend Teddy Bearz sent some beautipurr tulips with my DDP honor picture. Teddy made me really laugh because of a comment in the rosette. It was, "My stoopid bro, Alfie gave you the wrong date. Do I have to do everything around here?" Thank you so much for the pawsome picture and laugh you gave me, Teddy. Hugs to you! Teddy will be 1 year old on July 29th. He has a furry purrty page. Check it out and be sure to wish him a Happy 1st Birthday! The adorable Chrissy sent me a special furever rainbow star with concatulations for my DDP honor. Chrissy needs our purrs.

My pawsome furiends Kashmere, Picasso, Cocoa, Snowmitts, Aspen, Jaspurr and Biscotti sent me some purrty tulips with a vase of beautipurr flowers inside it and congrats on my DDP honor. They are always furry thoughtful and loving to me and my furmily and are furry special to us. Sammie and KiKi sent me a beach ball and concatulations on my DDP honor.

They are a totally pawsome furmily. And, you know what? They called me pretty Clawdette. And they told me to have a fun day with the gang. They know I will, I am sure. King Suede and the RFG Administrators sent me a purrty rose with concats on my DDP honor. That was furry sweet for them to think of me.

Isis concatulated me on my DDP honor and wished for me to enjoy my special day. Isis is so sweet and purrty. Sausage and Meatball sent me some purrty tulips to help me celebrate my DDP honor. Or, as the called it, conCAT. Don't you just love their names? Thanks fur being good furiends. Pooter's gave me beautipurr tulips and she so sweetly said I deserved it and that and that she loved my face. And she said her sisfur Nemo used to have that look. Thank you for the sweet compliment Pooter's. That means so much to me. I don't think I have seen Nemo, but would love to see her.

Off we headed to meet Tux, Jarvis and Cleo in Asheville, NC and to tour the the Biltmore House and have a purrfect picnic on those beautipurr estate grounds! The gardens were just breathtaking. Tux and I had such fun walking paw in paw in the romantic setting. Tux said he was sure the estate was beautipurr but he only noticed me. Well, the feeling was so mutual. He is so handsome. We spent Saturday night at the Inn which is located next to the Estate on Saturday night. The girls stayed together and the boys stayed together. Sunday morning we arose to a beautipurr mountain setting and had a lovely breakfast and then, sadly, our fun weekend had to come to an end. The car brought us back home. But the chatter on the ride home amongst Prince and Sunflower and I was so much fun. We relived our whole trip. Prince just kept on talking about how lovely Cleo was in her pink sundress. What a purrfect weekend was had by all! I will be dreaming of it all week! Tux sent me tulips and said "You are the light of my life!"

Boots who recently suffered from a big scare with kidney failure as the result of accidently ingesting some liquid from an Advil gel capsule, you will be furry pleased to know that his visit to the doc doc gave furry good news. He will be okay with care and special food. Well, Boots and his brofur Fluff have a new kitty brofur named Simba. Simba is really not new to us as my meowmy and Boots' dad were there when Simba was rescued from the pound when he was about 6 weeks of age. My meowmy's furiend adopted Simba originally. Unfortunately, his meowmy got furry sick and had to go to a nursing home as the result of too many seizures causing health and mental issues. Her husband is much older than she is and has recently cracked his back and is not in good health and is trying to find good homes for all of Simba's other siblings. They are older cats, for the most part, and this will be a tough job. My meowmy is trying to help him find them good homes. She is furry happy that Simba will have a good home. My meowmy has always had a love for Simba. She was there when he was adopted and went when he was neutered, too. She feels like he is a part of our furmily. Today, I got a blue ribbon rosette saying, "In my eyes you are BEST IN SHOW! Find a few kitties you think deserve this honor and forward the fun. Don't forget to post in the Plus Fun Forum!" Oh, thank you! This is so pawsome. I am so excited to get it.

Tux has a sick doggie brofur Boogie and their pawrents needed some time away from the stress. Of course, I wanted to write Tux immediately to thank him and to tell him how much fun I am having with my butterfly. Could my typist help me? NO! She told me she had to paint the trim in our house that day. What? Not help? How dare she tell me no. She painted until it was nighttime and then she and my dad had a late dinner. Did she bother to help me then? NO. So yesterday morning (the 2nd), I heard her get up at 5 am and I thought she would help me type to my sweet Tux. NO, it did not happen. She and my dad left and were gone most of the day. She gave me some excuse about having to take her cousin to the hospital for an outpatient procedure and it took the greater part of the day. Again, I did not get to write Tux. What is with that? I did hear her talk on the phone after they got home that evening. So, here's my thinking... if she can talk on the phone, why can't she help me type? She gave me some poor excuse about she can talk and use her hands for other things but when she types for me, she can't get anything else done. I can't believe she had the nerve to tell me that! I am so happy that Tux has his pawrents are back home! I hope they had a good time on their trip. Today Wanda, Norman, Tess, Rupert, Mitchell, Beckie, Fay, Princess, Harvey, Bess, Lewis, Einstein, Mama Kitty, Lilly, Blackie, Patti, Nikki, Frankie, Marie, Sunni, Roxanne, Rosie, Bob, Jesse and Freddie sent me a flag to help me celebrate the 4th of July!

Sometime bet ... Boots was playing at his home on Sunday. Sometime between 10:30 am and 8:30 pm, he found a little colorful ball that he found on the floor and he decided to play with it. What he did not know is that it was a gel Advil capsule full of what is poison to us cats. He bit into the capsule during his playful attempts with the little ball. After his pawrents got in that night, they found where some cat had thrown up in the kitchen and also upstairs in the bedroom. Since they have two cats (Boots and Fluff) they had no idea of which cat had thrown up. But his pawrents did find the partially deflated Advil gel capsule, however, so they knew what had probably caused the sickness. His pawrents called the vet the next day. The doctor said that he was probably okay if he kept his breakfast and dinner down which he did. Now, remember that his pawrents still did not know which cat had gotten sick at this point. The vet told his pawrents to keep Boots and Fluff in different rooms for 48 hours so they both went to their appointed bathrooms. During the next 48 hours, both Boots and Fluff acted alright. On Wednesday morning, it was discovered that it was Boots who was the sick one. He was not feeling well and was not interested in his food and had thrown up fluid. So, now they knew which cat had gotten into the Advil. His pawrents called the vet and she told them to bring him right in, which they did. After doing his blood panels, the vet found Boots was in severe kidney failure and they were given no guarantee as to whether he would pull through this illness. They started an IV and put a collar on poor Boots and were about to put the catheter and pump on him when my meowmy rushed over to see him because my pawrents had a trip they had to take. The vet let my meowmy hold Boots for a while until his pawrents could come back. While Meowmy was holding Boots, the vet said they needed to give him a shot for nausea. Boy, did he scream according to Meowmy. The vet told her it burned and was not pleasant for him. His pawrents arrived and held him for a while and then they put him in his cube so urgent treatment could begin. When his pawrents took him in on Wednesday, his levels were my levels were at 98 but were supposed to be between 16 and 32. This was not good. Sometime during his first night at the hospital, Boots somehow managed to get his IV out... that big plastic collar did not stop him. On Thursday morning, despite Boots efforts to get the tubes out, his levels dropped almost twenty points to 74. The vet said that was furry encouraging but would not committ as to whether he would or could make it or not. She said it would depend on his next levels which would be taken on Friday morning. They had to put the tubes back in but because his veins kept blowing out, they had to use his rear leg. So, now Boots has three shaved legs and a shaved neck. We did not know what to expect this morning (Friday) but we knew it was critical. Imagine our surprise that Boots' levels had come down from 74 the day before to 18 (normal is between 16 and 32). His pawrents were furry nervous because the little rascal had again pulled out his IV. He IS a determined little fellow. When the vet came out and told them to "Take him home!" they could not believe their ears. His pawrents had to go to work so they called my meowmy to see if she could pick him up and take him to his home. She did and she said he was so happy to be at his home. He and Fluff played and played and Boots was begging for food. We are all so happy he is doing well. He will always have damaged kidneys and will be on K/D food for the rest of his life but the vet expects it to be a normal life. Boots has to go back in several weeks for another blood panel to see where his levels are then... IF he has not problems before that time. We all feel furry blessed to have Boots back with us.]]> http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/469930 Thu, 12 Jun 2008 09:59:37 PDT Clawdette ~ writing at catster.com http://www.catster.com/cats/707896/diary/Clawdettes_ramblings/469930 I am a furry naughty girl.
