Thankful Thursday…A Nice Day

Hiya! Savannah Here!

I hope your Thursday is a thankfilled one…yup…I know spell check hates that word “thankfilled”…but I like it so I’m gonna use it!…so there, spell check!!

Of course I am thankful that today my house is getting cleaned…but that also means it is HOOVER DAY!!!  UGH!!  But, Mom is home…so I can hang in our office with her until Auntie Shannon comes upstairs…then Mom and I will go down to  our bedroom…Mom can grab her peep shower (she doesn’t use her tongue though…just some weird cloth thingy???..what’s with that???) and I can grab some zzzzz’s in my closet bed…not bad…so I am thankful for it.

And I am really thankful for yesterday…I had this really Nice Day visit with Mom on our stairs…

First…I was just hanging at the front door, catching up on stuff with Nanuk…he has seen some pretty interesting dogs go by the front yard…

…then I was sitting on the stairs, catching some sun puddles…and Mom comes over…”What??…can’t ya see I am sunning here???…

…OH MY CAT!!!…that feels so good…ummmmmm…so sorry I was so abrupt Mom…

…I had no idea this was gonna be a good luvin’ from Mom….WAIT!! DID YOU HEAR THAT???…

…oh…guess Nanuk has it covered…where were we Mom?…..

…awww…now she starts to sing to me…and I just go all crazy like…and I pull myself across the stair using the stair above as my sort of “pull up bar”…a very good workout, by the way…for my upper body strength…you know we ladycats aren’t always as strong as the mancats in upper body strength so we need to keep fit…

…uuummmpppffff…puff, puff…now the one paw pull…oooohhhh….ufffff….

…that was sooooo hard…now get the other paw hooked into the carpet…puff, puff…ummmppffff….

…alllmoooostt…there…ufff…pull, pull….

…whew…that was a great workout…thanks for the iMom music to help me out!!!…I think I’ll just stay here in the sun puddle and wait a bit before I do another rep…Ok Mom??

Yeah, yeah…I know you already saw this photo yesterday…but it really was the end of my upper body workout routine!!

Hope all of you are having a Thankfilled Thursday!

 

Paw pats, Savannah

peeEss…Next Tuesday…another Savannah Interview…”Rescue Dogs Are Talking…”…visit me on Tuesday, August 20, and you will be the first to hear it straight from this dog’s own mouth…he is telling all…

  3. You´re a diva Savannah!

  4. Hey Savannah………I do a similar stair workout myself – I think it’s kept my abs firm (Dad says it’s my six pack whatever that means) and my arms nice and strong. Looks like getting a head pat is a special part of your routine though – I’ll have to try that myself!

    Kitty Hugs, Sammy

  5. Nice moves there little make! Have a great weekend and tell Nanuk hawoo!

    RA

  6. Savvy you look like you have come so far since your very first blog :-). Well done girl xx

  7. We need some carpet! Daddy refuses to have any carpet coz he says it’ll collect fur (duh!) or Whisky will pee on it (hahaha!) or somekitty will yak on it. What’s his problem?

    Savannah! OMC OMC!! I just saw the comment from the guy who wrote the book!!! How did he even FIND me do you think?? That’s crazypants, huh? His blogger profile didn’t have any way to answer him so we googled him and found his website and sent him a reply. Wow! Do you know if he commented on the other kitties who winned a book? Boy, with this and the Big Fire this has been QUITE a day!! XOXOXOX

    • Just learning about the fire is it near you?? Is the house with 2 men dead?? And the author found you because I have been sending .miss Tammy links to all my furriends who post about the book. Don’t know if he will comment on everyone?.aw hugs Savvy

        Oh no, not that fire, thankfully! This was a fire just down our block–a wooden deck caught fire. No Humans or kitties or woofies got hurt here; we just had just lots of trucks and firemen and hubbub (and fire and smoke!) It was put out fast, but some firefighters and a couple of trucks hung around for hours just in case some of the smoldering parts re-ignited, but nothing more happened so eventually they went home!!

        Thanks for solving the mystery! 😉

        Also, thanks to your Mom for the park info. Eventually they *did* find the main entrance (with the little rnager station & all, but by then they’d run out of steam — that’s where they will START next time! 😉

  9. So cute – want to reach out and play with S on the stairs!

  10. Great workout. We think the chin scritches was the best part.

    Good evening Darling! You looks so adorables on those stairs — I wish I were there to get in on some of that snuggling! I even kind like the sweet talking–as long as the Human doesn’t get all grabby hands and decide to PickMeUp ::shudder::

  12. We are starting a campaign to have carpeted stairs installed, Savvy! Us Lady Cats must keep up our furlish giggers…we mean girlish figures!

  13. Great shots Savvie! Peeps say I’m the most muscular cat they ever had and I’m proud of it. I can beat up any man cat! But you already knew that since we think alike.

    Sweet Savannah that was a superiffic workout. It sounds like you have had a great Thursday. Hugs and nose kisses

  15. Maxwell: wow we’re impressed. I prefer to watch when momma does her workout. Looks like too much effort to me. I’d rather she sat down and read (and made me a lap). By the way, YES! We got your book – thank you SO much! Must go *make* Momma sit and read! I needs my LAP time!

  16. Fenris likes stairs. We don’t have any at our house so he only knows about them from going walking with the Mom. For some reason us cats never get invited. Can you believe she took Fenris to a restaurant this morning for breakfast?

    • oh Nellie..but I bet your peeps are way happier without those stairs…and you have that river…Mom wants to teleport there right now!!! paw pats, Savannah…peeEss..Mom is gonna got through photos tomorrow for my portrait…

  18. Savvy, we think your mom probably gives the very bestests neck scritches ever.
    Can we borrow her from time to time??

  19. Our Cousin Trooper pulls himself on the carpet like that. We only have tile….darn…we miss all the fun.

  20. You are one great StairMaster sweet Savannah! I’m tired just watching that workout!

    That does look like a great work out. We just have stairs outside and no carpet on them so we can’t exactly do that workout but it looks like a good one. We bet you are such a strong kitty cat. Hope you have a great evening.

  22. Our stairs don’t have carpet…William has furry feet…and no brakes….LOOK OUT!!!!
    The Maple Syrup Mob

    • MOL!!! that would be me too if it wasn’t for the carpet! I race up and down and then all around the bottom floor (it has a nice race car circle formation) which are all wood floors and then back up again and slide across our upstairs office floor which is wood…what fun!!

  23. Don’t over-do, Savvy-do! That looks like QUITE the workout!
    Play bows,
    Zim

  24. Wow savvy, you are going to be super strong doing those work-outs 🙂

  25. Those stairs are a great place to play, er, I mean work out!

  26. Those stair moves get better and better Miss Savvy!

    • Thank you! I am definitely getting braver to be on the stairs a lot, and I even let Dad walk around me and over me when he goes up and down…I used to run as soon as I saw him start to use the stairs…pretty good, huh? paw pats, Savannah

  27. Another hard days work I see.

  28. Savannah, you always make us smile. But we worry a bit that you might roll over the wrong way there and go tumbling down the stairs. Be careful.
