Super Duper Secret Paws!!!!!!!!!

Oh, oh, oh!!!!! Tiki & Riley are the bestest Secret Paws ever!!!!!!!!!!!! I gots so much cool stuff!

When mommy put the box on the floor I was a bit confused because usually I don't gets to inspect the mail at my leasure. Then she showed me that the box had MY name on it!! It wasn't just a package with stuff in it for me, it was a package that was TO me and FOR me. Wow. That has never happened before!


Inside there was a cool postcard with a great picture of Ohio Stadium where THE Ohio State Buckeyes play football and a nice letter just for me. Now, my daddy is a Purdue Boilermaker thru and thru (stop laughing! it has been a tough couple of seasons at our house...) BUT we can keep the postcard on the fridge because they are a Big Ten team


Then, I smelled it. Oh yeah. You know what I'm talkin' about. The Nip baby!!! The Nip! mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm good stuff!!!!!!

Now, you're going to look at this photo and say, "are those fev-ver butt mousies I see there???" and I'd have to say....YES!!! I gots all kindsa fabulous mousies. Fev-ver mousies, nip mousies, sparkle mousies with tails.....



Oh! And this is fun. It is a magnet that has a recipe for Ohio Buckeye Candy, and I live in Ohio! Mommy said she is going to make the candy. I wonder if I can share?????
I am sooooooooooooooooooo happy!!! Thanks so much Riley & Tiki! You are the best!!!

Formerly Feral Friday & Vishus Deer

Now, we formerly ferals know that ofer time, and with patience on the part of our beans, it is nice to eventually relax. We begin to enjoy the sound of people voices, chin scritchies and snuggling. I myself haf been enjoying the domestic life with mommy and daddy for ofer 2 years now. See how well I settled in...












But, let me tell you this, you vishus deer, I remember being a great hunter, and if you come in my house to try to get me, this is what will happen....



PS My mommy had her stints removed yesterday and eferything went well. She is sore and a little swollen today, but should feel loads better in a couple of days. She is taking it easy, per doctor's (and Hendrix's)orders, so I'm making sure she gets back on the sofa when she is done posting.

Sweetheart Saturday & Sunday

Mommy has had a purty bad day. The swelling made her get a big headache and sick to her tummy. I almost missed Sweetheart Saturday, but mommy said no way, she was going to post today no matter what.

Now it will be a Sweetheart Saturday and Sunday. After all, my Brandi deserves 2 lovey days right? I wrote a song to the tune of “Mandy” by Barry Manilow for my Sugar Pie

Oh Brandi
You are my sweet, sweet girlfuriend, my darling
But you live so far away

Oh Brandi
You haf such silvery silk fur, so purty
I teleport so far away to see
Brandi

I likes to snuggle with my girlfuriend
My sweetheart, my dearest golden eyed girl
My Brandi



We also did some fun Photoshop stuff. I wanted to show how important my Brandi is. See, she is more important than catnip. You read right, more important than catnip.

Lotsa Stuff to Post (and Stuffed Noses!)

First, thanks to efuryone who sent nice thoughts to my mommy. She said she could feel them (or maybe it was the any-sthetic) when she was waiting to go into surgery. The surgery went well, but of course she is in more pain than they said she would be in. Now they say that is "normal" amounts of pain. She gets the stints out (these are getting pury uncomfy in her nose) on Thurs. the 21st and then it is all healing from there! She gets a lovely 750mg of Vik-Kodin (I think it is something Vikings made up, Jack what do you think??) and that makes her feel muuuuuuuuuuuuuuch better.

There are other things that are making her happy too.

First, I am actually jumping up on the couch, laying on her lap AND encouraging pets. I have done this for the past 3 days. I was on her lap for an astonishing 4 hours today while we watched Ellen and Patriot Games (she can't move much so it is OK). In the little over 2 years I've been here, I have never, not once, ever come close to being a "lap cat." Hey I was a feral for around 2 years at the start of my life. Mommy and daddy neverr pressed the issue even though mommy wished sometimes I'd snuggle more. Now I am!!!!! Mommy said even if the lap time doesn't continue once she is better, this is the best medicine, happiness, she could haf right now.

Another thing making her feel better is how much good news is on the cat blogosphere now. Smudge is fighting hard and has met a new furiend, Merlin and Jack haf new furry siblings and the RI kitties are finding good homes (she'll read more about that tomorrow, this post will probably wear her out purty good). We all need to keep sending good vibes out because they appear to be working!

The other thing is....as promised...my daddy is 30 today! See, my mommy is 31 (we come from a long line of older women, younger men starting with my mommy's great grandparents, this is why I wasn't worried about me and Brandi's age difference)so this is a big day for both of them.

Since mommy can't go out and couldn't bake a cake, her dad (who is retired) was nice enough to pick up mini-chocolate donuts mommy could stack into a cake (she had to haf someone with her the last 48 hours so her dad came ofur during the day while daddy was at work). Daddy loved it and enjoyed it with some tasty Bud.

Well, we'd love to show you a picture, but blogger is being a pain in the *&%^$ and mommy is to tired to fight with it. We'll be sure to post it tomorrow.

Don't forget it is Sweetheart Saturday!

Also, Happy Hannukah to all of our Jewish furiends!!! Take care.

Tummy Tuesday and Remembering Furiends in Need

Hi! Except what my daddy will post after my mommy's surgery tomorrow, I'm going to be taking a break until Friday. Mommy and I are trying to visit all our furiends today. Blogger won't let us post comments on a couple of sites (I tried hard Dragonheart and Mu Shue and efuryone, but efen "other" wouldn't work) so just because I didn't leave a message, doesn't mean I didn't visit.

Mommy says she wishes I was more of a "tummy slut" likes Jack because she can't get many pictures of my belly and if anyone tries to pet it, I pull a "Grr" on them (don't worry Grr, I don't like being picked up either!). She is glad I'm being such a good snuggle nurse, because I always wind up belly up pressed against her leg. She's taking advantage by taking lotsa picture for future Tuesdays.


I'm very sorry to hear how many of my furiends and their beans aren't well. Luna's mom is going to be in the hospital for a week, Oreo's mom is hafing more tests, Smudge is hafing surgery today, dear Ana is on medicine for renal failure and we are hoping she gets good news when she gets her tests done, and we lost sweet Libby (although we'll all see her on the Rainbow Bridge someday).

I'm lighting many virtual candles for all my dear furiends and their beans and sending virtual love vibes through the air to you all.

Sweet Saturdays and Sundays

Hello all! Sorry my posting has been ear-atick lately, but mommy feels really poorly. She has to go in for surgery on Wednesday the 13th. They are going to open up her Linuses. Mommy isn't worried to much. She says her bean VET is a good surgeon who told her she'll be all better by Christmas!

I am a little worried though. I don't likes when mommy is sick. She has been pury nice and makes sure we still haf our special string toy play time. I hopes she can still do that after her surgery.

Please send purayers for my mommy and nice healing thoughts.

As you can see I'm taking pury good care of her and making sure she gets plenty of nappies.




Daddy helping me take care of mommy



I am also getting ready for two special posts this week. My daddy turns 30 on the 15th and since I haf such a sweet Sugar Pie (did you see the lovey message she made for me???), I'm going to haf a special Sweetheart Saturday post. Daddy is going to help me. Also, Saturday is the start of Hanukkah celebrated by our Jewish furrends.

On a serious note, I am sending comfort thoughts to Libby Marie's family during this awfully difficult time. We are also keeping all of our sweet furries and their caring beans that are sick in our thoughts and purayers.
