Sunday’s Are Getting Easier!

Hiya!  Savannah Here!!

My Sunday Morning was PAWSOME!…watching the morning ABC This Week show snuggled next to Mom…lots of massaging, scritches and face rubs…a WHOLE HOUR!…

…scored again when Mom and Dad came to our bedroom last night just so they could watch TV with ME!…Dad sits in the chair by the bed and Mom get in bed so I can snuggle with her…puuurrrrrrrr…

Hope your weekend was as EASY as mine!

Friendly Friday Frolic…And Feeling a Loss

Hiya! Savannah here!

First about Feeling Loss.  My Champion, big guy Jetty, has lost his feline brother, Fluffy.  Fluffy went OTRB yesterday, August 16.  He lived a long life but a companion passing is always tough.  I  know Jetty’s mom, Miss Lori, is missing Fluffy too, as well as Fluffy’s human sister, Rachel.  You see, Rachel named Fluffy when she was a little girl. So if you haven’t already, please drop by Jetty, at Hey, It’ s Jet Here, to give them some healing purrrs and soft doggie nuzzles.

I borrowed this cute photo from Jet’s blog post, I hope he doesn’t mind. I never met Fluffy, but wish I had.

Now I will share my Friendly Friday Frolic with you…

I have some new stuff to tell you about…but mostly I’ll keep that for my “Monday Meowsie News”.

But I really wanted you to see something I did that was silly and fun yesterday..You know I have started to play some with Mom in our office…well who knew that Mr Apple created something just for us cats!!  It is an Apply iPlay cat toy…

Using it for chasing does require a staff member…or…you can just let it lay on the floor and pounce on it…I tried both ways…and prefer the interactive version myself.

…Mom started by waving it at me…I couldn’t tell what it was, so I had to go into the office to check it out…

…OH CAT!!…there are two of them!!!…Now What!!!…

.

…OK…this one is moving…I better keep my eyes on it…

…I pounced on it…then had to take a good sniff…Mom didn’t get a good photo of me jumping all over this thing…

…when she tried all she got was a FOTO BOMB!!!…(behind paws…snicker, snork)…

And that’s my new Apple iPlay Cat Toy…I bet some of you have this very same toy…so I encourage you to get your staff to share it…they can just leave it lying on the floor for you to practice your attack moves, or they can make it interactive and wiggle it around so you can practice your pouncing moves…

Have a great weekend, Paw pats, Savannah

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!
