Monday Meowsie News…Leo Is Looking

HIYA!!    SAVANNAH HERE!!

ummm…shuffling paws…well, this is really hard to say…but Leo needs to find his own furrever castle.  I am just to afraid to let him in the same room.  And Leo, well, he is such a great mancat about all this…but he deserves a better quality of life than having to stay in his hotel suite most of the time.

The only time he can have the run of the house is when I take naps in my master bedroom tent…and truth to tell…I figured out that when I do that…I get shut in the room…and now I won’t go there anymore to take my daily naps.  I am now staying downstairs…so Leo can’t be let out of his room.

This is not the quality of life Leo deserves and I want to get my routine back so I don’t have to keep going UTB if I am shut in our bedroom.

We all have very leaky eyes…but we are launching today a search for Leo to find his furrever castle.

I have created a Page at the Top of My Blog…”Leo’s Castle Search”… click HERE…I had Mom and Dad put up information that is impawtant to help Leo find his furrever castle…like I found mine.

Here are  a few impawtant specifics he needs in his furrever castle…more are noted on his PAGE at the top of my blog:

  • Must be an indoor cat ONLY…he has NEVER been outside…he is about 4-6 years old; he is micro-chipped; all shots etc. current
  • It must be within a car drive from the San Francisco Bay Area…it can be in Southern Oregon, Nevada, or Arizona perhaps; but Northern California is our target search
  • No little children under age of 12
  • Preferably, calm home with one stay at home human: works from home/retired/etc.

Leo is FULLY RECOVERED from his episode with hepatic lipidosis (fatty liver syndrome).  He loves his food…is an excellent player and has never ever had any issues with litter box, etc.

However…his Vet prefers that he not be subjected to any excessive stress right now…as it can be a trigger for this syndrome.  Because  of  this, we do not want him to be transported a long distance.

We have had help from some good furriends in getting this started…and all of us working to find Leo his Furrever Castle are from all over the globe…this is the brilliance of social media…we believe that Leo is only 6 furriends away from making his contact with his Furrever Castle.

Even if you are in South Africa, New Zealand, Nova Scotia, Ontario CN, Sweden, UK, or East, South, North, Midwest, etc USA…you may know someone…who knows someone…who knows someone else…who can help Leo find his furrever castle…we are purraying for the ” Six Degrees of Separation” theory…

“Six degrees of separation is the theory that everyone and everything is six or fewer steps away, by way of introduction, from any other person in the world, so that a chain of  “a friend of a friend” statements can be made to connect any two cats in a maximum of six steps.”

…and we ask you to feel free to take any of the information, photos, videos from Leo’s page to include in a blog post, tweet about it, post it on your Face Book page…we need your help and are grateful we have so many of you to ask…thank you for sticking with me during the past two months.

It has been difficult to manage Leo’s care when he had a feeding tube in and also all the other stuff Mom and Dad are involved in for community volunteering and what not. So, Mom hasn’t been able to help me get ’round to visit lots. I am sorry.  Once Leo has his furrever castle, I hope we can be back to normal soon.

…here are the photos we picked to help Leo’s search…they are on his Page too…

I guess that is enough Monday Meowsie News…it has us all wiping leaky eyes…but we hope we will soon have tears of joy when Leo gets that call from someone who wants to give him his furrever castle…and he does come with his “hope chest”…you can see what is in it on his page “Leo’s Castle Search

Paw Pats, Savannah

So I never thought I would say this…but I am so thankful for my Foster Brofur Leo…finally…Mom and Dad now are learning what a wonderful, priceless and purrfect ladycat I am…what a RELIEF!!.  No misbehavin’ on my part…no sireeee…

…on the other paw…FB Leo is a different story…

Do ya see that???…right there…Mom’s fave buffet she makes look all nice…and “SOME CAT” must have jumped up there, smooshed up that pretty table runner thingy…and practically knocked off that bowl from Peru and that heavy candle thing-a-ma-bob…pawful, just pawful…

And…I, Savannah, was closed off in my master bedroom having my morning siesta when this happened…hmmmm….wonder who could have done it…heh…heh..yup, FB Leo is makin’ me look really good!

Of course, FB Leo gets out and about…but the other thing that makes me feel appreciative is that he hasn’t damaged any of my fave toys…well, at least not yet.  And Mom and Dad always make sure they pick up Mr Scruffy, my very, very first ever toy they bought just special for me when I first came to be fostered by them.

DSC_1615

He is my most favorite, special toy of all…I play with him by myself every day…he sleeps on my scratch post when I am not playing with him…you can see I have loved him to pieces…so no Leo germs allowed on Mr. Scruffy.

I always have to check out my stuff after Leo has been out…ya never know what he might do…(remember you can click on a photo to bigify)

I decided I would let FB Leo tell you about his special thankfulness for this week..just to give him something to do…he needs to learn how to blog in case his next castle lets him have one of his own…go on FB Leo…you can meow with my readers now, go on….

Ahhh…yeah, well Ok Savannah…(feels like I should salute her or something)…I do have something to be very very thankful about this week.  Do you guys out there remember the raffle Mollie and Alfie put on to help with my medical costs???

Anywho…the grand raffle prize was won by da’ Tabbie O’ Trout Towne…a gift voucher for $75USD…and they generously gave that prize to ME…LEO…an adult shelter rescue cat…fighting for my life because I had fatty liver syndrome

Ok, moving along…I finally decided how to spend my prize money…I now have my very own…

CAT TOWER!!  TA–DA!!!

Yeah, yeah…Savannah back again…so now he has his own cat tower…thank COD!! So like stay off mine, na’mean???

Lastly, for my good gurl furriend Jonesie…I have a little garden report…I think the dudes that take care of our garden must have dumped some noms on the roses…cuz’ they are putting out flowers again…WOO HOO..

Jonesie, this is my garden report for this week…hope it meets your approval…
