Counting paw whacks!

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I have a really fun game for you today. I have three castle guests who I am providing temporary shelter for while  their foster mom is on vacation. Rufus, the boy kitten, challenged his sister from another mother, Christina, to a paw whacking contest. They both go wild paw whacking  their favorite feather duster toy.

So here is my challenge to all my readers of this post:

Who gets the most paw whacks on the feather duster toy in 9 seconds: Rufus or Christina 

RUFUS

CHRISTINA

Were you able to count their paw whacks?? Let me know how many you think they each his that feather duster toy with in comments! Answer on my Friday post!

Monday musings from my castle

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

So how are things going with all of you? Give me a shout out in comments about what you’ve been doin’ in all this hot, hot, hot weather around the world!  I wanted to share a bit about what’s up here at my castle. Nothing new, just some looks at our daily lives!

I spend my time napping most days. And of course wherever I happen to be at meal time, I always get served where I am napping. You can see me eating from my lovely pink Classy Cat pottery pedestal dish on my couch steps. I sit here often on the couch watching TV with Mom L and I get my dinner served there.

Once I started to get my brekkies served upstairs in our master bedroom, why then of course—all the others had to have theirs upstairs too!! Poor Dad P has to lug all there Classy Cat dishes upstairs and he lines them up next to his side of the bed. They all come to nibble while Mom L and Dad P and I watch the morning news. The gold dish is Sage, the blue dish is Domino and Katie has the green one.

And no! We are not spoiled!!

 

Domino is such a clown cat. When he sleeps, he stretches out from the tip of his front toesies to the back toesies and then he stretches out that long plush tail of his! And he still cannot stop wanting to get a paw or two on my royal furs!

Sage never tires of keeping an eye on Dad P’s dinner plate when he brings it to the living room to watch TV. And she can always be found in her favorite Miss Andrea’s plush bed in the sun streaming in through our patio slider in the dining room.

Our darling little Katie aka KK loves to watch all the traffic pass by when she sits quietly in her cardboard scratcher bed in the master bedroom. And she can often be found in between Dad P’s legs when he takes his occasional nap

Hope you enjoyed getting a peek into our predictable days of life in my castle.

My trip to my doc

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

So here’s what happened last week. I had’ta go to my doc ‘cuz I keep having these painful urinary tract infections. UGH! I absolutely do not enjoy riding in that car with those road bumps and curves  to deal with.

My doc is a good man. I trust him and he is very kind with me. He is helping Mom L and Dad P keep me comfortable in my senior years. I have chronic kidney disease (CKD) and Mom L and Dad P give me fluids every other day. That helps lots! I also have irritable bowel disease (IBD), and have had this for about eight years now. I get prednisolone gel in my ear every other day. Over the last four years, I have lost most of my ear furs but my gut track is doing OK. I have had a probiotic in my wet food for years now and even Sage is getting that along with me as she has developed IBD. We both get weekly vitamin B12 injections from Mom L too and I get a once a month Solensia injection from Mom L for my severe arty-right-us.

So you can see I am being well taken care of. I get so stressed going to the vet that Mom L now rides in the back seat with me and she opens the front door of my carrier so’s she can give me chin scritches to keep me from stressing. I always try to peek out and catch a glimpse of the passing scenery.

You can see that even as a senior gal at eighteen years old, I still have my bright green eye color! I hope that all my senior blogging pals are doing good and that you are comfortable as you age. Do any of you have challenges like mine? What do your humans do to keep you comfy?

PAW PATS, SAVANNAH
