Monday Meowsie News…It’s Gonna Be Good!

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I told Mom and Dad I wanna make catgone sure efurryone remembers that THIS BLOGGY…well…it’s MY BLOGGY…so let’s start with some news about me.

Even though foster brofur Leo (FB Leo) has been playing with my very special, and sensitive technical teleport tunnels…I think you all should know…I am not a ‘sissy ladycat’…I can still play and be flirty and all that stuff even if FB Leo has rubbed his icky mancat smells all over my tunnels…

…WHAT??!!…I KNOW “HE” has been here…

…and “lalala..hahaha…I don’t care…heh…heh…

…yup, I can flip and twirl and flirt…

…ooopps!!…Oh My Cat!!…his smell…right next to my special 3 way Teleport Tunnel…

…pppffttt!…WHO CARES!!!…THIS IS MY CASTLE!!!…

…Oh Cat!…I got some of his smells on my toesies…YUK!!

..Woo Hoo…who cares??!!…sometimes I make myself laugh!…bwahahahaha!!

Ok, ok…so…moving on to other Monday Meowsie News…yeah, yeah…about FB Leo…and his Vet Check on Friday…

APAWS!!! FB Leo GAINED WEIGHT!!…He broke the 12 pound barrier. When FB Leo was first owner surrendered at the county kill shelter, he was noted as “obese” at take in…he weighed a bit over 15 pounds. When it was discovered he was not well…he weighed in at about 11 pounds…

He has never gone over 11.9 pounds until last Friday…and he weighed in at 12.2 pounds!!! Dr Ellis, Civic Feline Clinic, was over joyed!! FB Leo has turned a very impawtant corner…and he will have some news to share next Monday…July 1rst…so be sure to come on back…

Leo was so kindly embraced by all of blogville…and when Mollie and Alfie sponsored an auction and raffle to help pay for his medical care…the winner of the Grand Prize Raffle was kind enough to give Leo this special win…it was donated by My Three Moggies…it was a gift voucher for 75 USD. Da Tabbies O’ Trout Towne won the raffle Grand Prize and turned around and gave it to FB Leo to spend as his heart desired…

And that he did!!…Leo so wanted a Cat Tower like mine…you all know…mine is pretty nice…but Mom and Dad thought he should try something a bit different…so they ordered this one online…

Well, you can see the problem…Leo is bigger than the top platform…so…back that Cat Tower went…

So, Mom and Dad felt so badly he had to give up his first ever very own tower…they allowed him to come into OUR MASTER BEDROOM!!…My last sanctuary…haruummppfff..(click on a photo to bigify and/or switch to slide show mode)

NOES!! My Special tent!

the tail tells all…

MOUSES!! My litter box!!

My bathtub!!

No, no…not MY scratcher!!

My special chair (which I never sleep on now)

Yeah dude! That’s you!!

And my window…noes!!!!!

Well, as you can see…we are still living two different lives…but FB Leo is doing so well…he can now find his very own Castle…more about that next Monday Meowsie News…it will take a whole blogville village…but Leo will have his special Castle where he can have all the human attention he so desires…just wait and see…

Foolish Bird Friday…

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

First let me apologize to my very special furriends…da’ Tabbies O’ Trout Towne…I am gonna be talkin’ “burd” today…so guys…ya might wanna like, ya know…skip reading this post…(wink, wink)

So, I was hanging out in my comfy playroom…not sure why Mom and Dad call it a “living room”…cuz it’s just chuck full of my play stuff…humans are weird…gotta luvluvluv ’em just the same.

…and then I hear this chirp…chirpity…chirpity…chirp…chirp…(and I swear it was ended with a little ‘heh…heh)

So OK…I am drawn to my large screen HD Bird TV station…

…and Oh Cat!…there is this bird…

…Mom says it is a dark eyed black capped Junk bird…and yeah…I’d like him in a junk pile after all the teasing he put me through…

This cheeky little bird spent about 15 minutes hopping from potted shrub to potted shrub…right outside my Bird HD TV Station…constantly taunting me with his fluttering and chirping and stuff…

…can you see him in that middle potted shrub???

…at times he got even closer…look really careful and you can see him in the plant on the right…that is very close to my Bird HD TV Station…

…and them he hopped back and forth, back and forth between that shrub and the first one…always screaming and taunting me with his stoopid chatter…

Now Mom thought this was all “hardy har har” funny…not to me…and he sure did look plump to me…and crunchy too…too bad that screen didn’t have a hole in it…just sayin’…

peeEss…for those of you who seem to luvluvluv having your ‘squeee’ look at foster brofur Leo…I told Mom it was OK to post just one photo of him…this is MY BLOG after all…harummppffff…

…Leo looking at some bird TV from MY MASTER BEDROOM WINDOW…another invasion of my castle!!

…shhh…looks over shoulder…Leo here…thanks for caring about me…I’ll try to come back later next week…hope my vet check goes great tomorrow so’s I can find my own castle…sigh

Monday Meowsie News…Update The Royals

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I know that all of my readers remember the cry to “Save The Royals”…click HERE for Part One: The Rescue…click HERE for Part Two: The Back Story and click HERE for Part Three…Social Media Rocks!

As many of you remember…I had “Writer’s Block” at the last of the posts…

…it was a tough road…but the toughest road was for the pawsome two adopters…Mom Rhonda, who adopted Emily…

Emily with the pretty eyes

and Mom Laura who adopted both Brutus and Marigold (brofur and sisfur)…

That rescue has had its share of trials and tribulations…both of the adopter furramilies had so much to deal with…from how to integrate the new Royals into the other cats in the home…and then…all of the Royals required dental work which we all know is HUGE costs.

Then Emily in Utah became very ill…and her new Mom Rhonda faced that challenge of how to cover the cost of her medical care…but Miss Rhonda never gave up.

…Emily flirting for her GrandPawrents…heh..heh…

Next, Miss Laura who adopted the brofur and sisfur Marigold and Brutus…she learned a day before receiving them that her landlord would not allow for two more cats…so Miss Laura had to go through the expense of moving her hufamily to a new home in a short week…but she did all of that to be able to joyfully receive Brutus and Marigold…Angel Mom Rose’s kitties.

Now for the very very sad Monday Meowsie News…sweet, precious Marigold developed “wet” FIP…

….From June 3rd, when Marigold is still feeling sort of “OK” to June 11, when she was sliding fast toward the Bridge…Mom Laura was ever at her side.

Purrlease visit Mom Laura’s post to memorialize precious Marigold…click HERE…again, Purrlease leave words of encouragement for Marigold’s huFamily, furrAmily and especially for her Mom Laura.

Nellie’s Mom Barb created this lovely graphic and badge…purrlease feel free to add it on your blogs to let Marigold and Miss Rose know that you remember them…

…the badge graphic…

I am proud that Mom Linda and I had some part in Saving The Royals…and we are all…including Dad Peter…shedding leaky eyes over Marigold’s run to the Bridge. Mom Laura did just what Marigold needed…Mom Laura gave her release from pain, and suffering and sent her to join her Mom Rose whom she greatly missed and Mom Rose is waiting for Marigold with Beau…it is a joyful reunion…just ask Pepi Smart Dog…

Precious Marigold…you will not be forgotten in our home…nor in your Mama Graces’ home…nor in many homes around the world…Fly sweet Marigold to a joyous reunion with Mom Rose…and wait for Mom Laura…she will join you in her own time too…she luvluvluv’d you so well…

Paw Pats, Savannah

peeEss…The Cat Blogosphere is holding an auction to help Mom Laura…she is over $4000USD in the final care of Precious Marigold…I have donated some more @tinypearlcat woofie and kitty hand painted stones…purrlease visit Marg to add your donated items if you can…and email Marg at margaretmsan at gmail dot com with any items you are willing to donate.
