Widebody Wednesday

The camera adds 10lbs.

Hey mommy, watch it with that "widebody" stuff. I've seen your "winter weight" after the shower and that bag of Cheetos in the cabinet....

My friend Monty Q gave me the Caring Cat Award! I am very proud to get it. I am puuuuuurrrrring with happiness.

It is very very hard to decide who to give this to. We have such a great community here!

I'd like to give it to the Cat Blogosphere for always keeping us informed about anyone who needs help.

My sweet Brandi who, even when she was havin troubles, send purrs and prayers to anyone who needed it. Her mommy also makes sure to give her bloods (*shudder*) to help other beans who need it.

And the gang at Jan's Funny Farm for always keeping us informed about animals and beans who need help or to be found and brought home.

Thank you all for your nice comments on my pretty furs. Since I have FIV & IBS I am on Prescription Hill foods. They are high in fat and vitamins and that makes my coat look shiny. Also, I refuse to be brushed...ever. Bendrix and I think it helps us look natural.

Toes on Tuesday, or is it Monday???

Yes, yes, we're posting early. I guess it is OK cause my toesies are the same every day (unless I have to wear stoopid soft paws when Bendrix is in "scratching mode...")
Anyway, I have great House Panther toes and paw pads. I only have a handful of white on me, 2 white whiskers that come and go and like 3 on my chest. My paws are jet black.


The pretty snuggle was made by Timothy Dickens Grammie! Isn't she sweet? I lay on it, I lay under it and if there is a sunbeam on the tile floor, I sit and stare at mommy until she puts my snuggle on the floor so I can lay on it. I love my snuggle!


Uh oh, I see clippers coming out! Run Bendrix Run!!!!

Across the Universe

Happy 45th Anniversary Beatles' Across The Universe!!! I did play the song, but mommy didn't want to get in trouble cause the music played so we deleted that link.

Super Sunday!

Even tho my beloved Bengals didn't make it, well, anywhere this season, I am still excited about Super Bowl Sunday. I'll pop over to Momo's for fun and of course the M-cat club for some mancat time.

Mommy is also DVRing the "Puppy Bowl IV" presentation on Animal Planet. Man, those mini woofies crack me up. The "Bissel Kitty Halftime Show" with a dozen cute kittens is also lots of fun.

Daddy and I are practicing for an exciting game by playing "kill the mousie toy"

the paw of death awaits the unsuspecting mousie toy.





We want to thank you all again for your purrs and prayers for Sonny & his family. They, and we, are very sad, but knowing so many are thinking of us helps.
Thanks also for the nice comments about Sophia. My beans met her in person Friday and said she is even prettier in person!

Thankful Thursday-Sad and Welcoming New Life

During such a time of sadness, we have found two big things to be thanful for.

We are so very thankful to all our friends for their kinds words of comfort over the loss of Sonny. His family is really wrecked and they are comforted that so many of you are sending good thoughts their way. Sonny was such a good woofie and we will miss him so much. Mommy still gets leaky thinking of him.

We are also very thankful this morning that my blurpy cousin (my daddy's brother) was born safe and sound last night. Sophia Grace entered the world at 5:08pm at 7lbs 14oz happy and healthy.

Update!Awful awful news

I just deleted the update from Sonny's mommy from before because obviously it was wrong.
Our little Sonny is eaten up with cancer. We just can't believe it.
The vet just called my uncle and they are keeping Sonny sedated until his family gets there. He will be going to the Bridge soon. We are just so upset.

Thank you for all your prayers and purrs. They've meant a lot.

Terrible Tuesday

We wanted to get this post up even tho it is technically Monday night. Sonny isn't doing well at all. His liver and kidneys are screwed up and his blood pressure is extremely high and so is his cholesterol. Basically, all his counts are terrible.
He is now vomiting a lot.
We don't have a lot of info because our Uncle had to go take care of Sonny cause he was vomiting again.

We are all very upset and Sonny's family loves him so much they can't bear the thought of losing him.
Please hold paws and send big huge healing purrs his way. He really needs them.

Snuggling Sunday & Sonny

First, sorry we couldn't update on Sonny. Our internet was down until just now. There is no new news on him. The VET hasn't even gotten back with his family! They called all day yesterday. Isn't that awful?
Sonny was sent home Friday with steriods and anty-biotiks. They also gave my Uncle some premeasured shots of Valium to give him when/if he has another seizure. We wish they'd figure out what was wrong with him!

Mommy did what she always does when upset or stressed. She cleaned. She even got this out along with 3 big fans to dry it all.

She did 3 rooms of carpets and couches! You read that right, I couldn't even snuggle on my sofas.
This morning we slept in.


Wake us when it is Spring.

Purrs and Prayers Needed

My woofie cousin Sonny has had three seizures this week. We just saw him Sunday for his third birthday celebration and he seemed OK. Then Monday he had 2 seizures and went to the VET. The tests were inconclusive. Then he had another seizure last night and the VET said that one of his kidneys doesn't look right.

Sonny is a lab mix who was rescued from a local kill shelter (we was one of 9 siblings all adopted!) by my Uncle, Aunt and bean cousin 3 years ago. He just turned three on the 19th.

Please purr and pray for him to be all OK soon. We'll let you know as soon as we hear anything. Mommy is very upset cause Sonny is her "doggie fix" and she loves him lots.

Thursday - Assume the Position

Last Friday my daddy got home from being gone for NINE DAYS. I was very happy to see him. I ran to the hallway to greet him as soon as he came in. Then I "assumed the position."


I was even more happy to discover that distance and time did not make him forget what happens when he gets home.



Treats!!! Please note how he didn't even remove his coat before giving me my treat.




PS Mommy is busy with work and stuff (there is a big Fundraiser for the shelter she volunteers at coming up too) that we are slacking off on posting and visiting friends. Mommy's big project - she is the Marketing Manager at a store and they are launching their website for the first time - should be done next week. She has to get all the info to the web builder and then she'll have a break to catch up on other stuff.

Please don't forget us or feel bad if we don't stop by often. Sometimes we can read your bloggies, but not comment!
