Friday memes for your Friday smiles

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

My gal pal from England, Erin the Cat Princess, provides the first meme to make your Friday a thoughtful one.

Do you dare to dream? What dreams do you have? Let me know in comments.

In fact the colony cats’ tails don’t even let you know which way that California Delta wind is blowing! MOL!!

Sometimes TKS dives into a box with complete abandon. Other times, she stops and clearly ponders whether that box has a current resident or not.

What do YOU do if you dive into a new box and find that some other critter is still using it???

Late blog post you won’t wanna miss!

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

Sorry about being late to post today my pals, but Mom L discovered last night that she couldn’t see her puter screen well enough to edit my photos. She needed somethin’ she calls “cheater reader glasses”?? So off she dashed to the store this morning to buy some cheap “readers” so’s she could type my post. What a mom, right??

So I have shared before that The Kid Sage aka TKS enjoys a walk on the wild side now and then. This means going through the upstairs railings and walking on a very narrow ledge to get a better view of downstairs.

Well then I tried it and Mom L almost feinted! Yeah, I know I have a gimpy left hind leg from arty-right-us. But heck if TKS can do it why not me. So of course Mom L had to post about my little adventure and make a big deal outta it.

I just luvluvluv the quilt from this angle

Notice my hind toesie kind’a hanging there off the ledge? Sheesh! You’d have thought I was gonna fall or something.

As you know we have Kit Katie aka KK as a new family member. She delights in sitting on the top of the stairs thinking she can block me from being able to go down. HAH!! I know a short cut!

Guess where that short cut is???

I’ll just slip around KK

Yep! You got it right! That short cut takes me back out on that ledge that causes Mom L to have anxiety attacks!!

I can hop through the railing to that second step and beat KK down

Mom L did not appreciate my quick thinking about how to get past KK and avoid a lotta hissing and whatnot. She was turning kind’a bright pink from holding her breath by the time I got down to the couch.

It isn’t that far up there Mom L

I hate to see Mom L upset. What do you do when you have done something that’s pretty easy for you but seems to cause your human to get all bothered??

Let me know in comments what you do that causes your human to turn pink

In order to calm Mom L down, I decided to do something that would make her happy. So I let KK come up on my couch for a little nap session.

Mom L needs to take a cup of nip tea to relax her.

Remember Sam? I have an update!!

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I posted on July 29th the ~~tail~~ tale of Sam aka Samantha aka Sammy’s capture to be able to treat a severe injury. We thought Sammy was a girl, then a boy, then a girl and finally once we got “him” to our county animal services, they confirmed “IT’S A BOY”!!!

Well Sam was released from Contra Costa County Animal Services (CCAS) to Miss Jane’s care in early August. CCAS staff and medical docs treated him like the elegant young mancat he is. We are proud that CCAS is one of our key partners for my latest Paw It Forward Project, Project Delta View Cats (PDVC).

We also have the great good fortune to have a wonderful working relation with Furry Friends Pet Relief as they are the rescue that found a very reasonably priced veterinarian, Central Boulevard Vet Hospital, who knows how to manage feral kitties, to do Sam’s much needed dental. Sam was boarding on stomatitis so we weren’t sure what would happen and how many toofies he might need extracted.

Good news!! Sam had NO extractions!! And one of our wonderful volunteers, Miss Kandi, donated the cost of his dental. So after that, Sam went to have a very nice relaxing recovery at Miss Jane’s home.

Check out the amazing set up Sam had thanks to Miss Jane and her hubby Mr Bob. Sam was catered to and cared for and we believe he is ready to be released back to our park colony this next week.

I know that Sam will always remember Miss Jane, his protector and care giver. He will be looking for her to serve up his meals once released at PDVC’s park colony.

So tell me all about any successful recovery stories you have when you helped out an injured or ill community cat?
