Savannah’s Choices

HIYA!! SAVANNAH HERE!!!

I guess efurryone knows all about the big Valentine Ball that Mollie and Ranger are hosting…and I am so excited and nervous because I’M GOING!! Spitty, my best San Francisco Bay Area furriend is going to take me…how totally cool is that??

So here is my dilemmapaw_15px.jpg… what to wear???

You see, Mom and Dad are only letting me go ‘cuz they know Spitty will treat me really nice and they trust him.  And Mom and Dad both think my best choice is to go to the ball wearing my REAL, OWN furrs!!  They think my furrs are spectacular…very shiny, soft…and I have to say…I agree…sigh…what to do, what to wear….I know lots of the other girls will have on really fancy ball gowns…

I guess you have to come to the ball to find out what I am wearing…

Monday Meowsie News…

HIYA!!   SAVANNAH HERE!!!

My first, really, really BIG news…has no photo proof…you are all gonna have to trust me on this one…because it is BIG…no, no…seriously…I am TALKIN’ BIG!!!

Last Wednesday, I was in our office meowing some instructions to Mom, and when I started to leave her to her work, she walked over to me and…

…scooped me up into her arms!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

…AND I LET HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I got kind’a tense, but did not struggle, Mom held me close to her and softly scratched my neck and talked softly and encouraged me…then she sat down in the chair we have in the office…and kept me close to her shoulder a bit more, then she let me rest a bit on her lap…at that time I started to get a bit more anxious…so Mom, still with her hands around my middle, let me slide easily off her lap onto the floor!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

…NEXT…

I did not run away, I just went about 2 feet away, then looked back at her and she followed me…I meowed to her, stopped, she pet me, then I walked toward the patio door in the living room, all the time with Mom right next to me and petting me as I walked and meowed along…at the patio door, I just sort of threw myself down on the floor, Mom got down with me…and was petting me…

I figured, what the heck…and I LET HER STROKE MY TUMMY AGAIN!!!  Then Mom gave me some treats and I gobbled them right up! As most of you know, I don’t care much for treats, but these are Friskies Party Mix, chic-hen, turkey and liver…yummm.  She did like she learned from Mom Janey at The Real Maple Syrup Mob when I interviewed Heathcliff (click HERE if you missed his interview)…so see, we are using what we learn from my Real Rescue Cats and Dogs Are Talking interviews.

So sorry no photos…but hope you are as purrleased with me as I am of myself…Mom was of course, ECSTATIC!! paw (peeEss…Mom just picked me up again today, Sunday…and I got some more treats for letting her…heh…heh..)

But I do have photos of my NEW TENT SPACE!!…hey Sammy, hear that??? Another TENT! All thanks to your great ideas Sam my man!!

Check this out…Mom used one of my two ham-miks…I like to keep one in our master bath…remember…it has the radiant heated tile floors and that keeps it nice a warm…

…here’s a better one photo…Mom made the tent, and I just sniffed it a bit and climbed right into it…even stayed there long enough for her to grab her iPad to get some” proof of tent use” photos…

…the other thing going on is Mom and Dad are starting to pack up for their next get away. They will be gone a whole week again. Now, don’t fret, Auntie Shannon will be here with me…she even does sleep overs so I always have a nice peep body to snuggle with at night.  Mom and Dad are leaving this coming Friday.

I can tell they are gonna go…so I am making good use of the time I have with Mom in the mornings…we had a very special snuggle on Sunday morning…this is after I had a really long brushing time with her…

…see how tight I am against her leg there on my right??…and the sun was starting to come into our bedroom…

IMG_0107

…I stayed in bed a while after she got up to make breakfast for her and Dad…she came back in and grabbed Dad’s iPhone for the next couple of shots…

IMG_0299

…even got a close up…

IMG_0298

That’s what’s happening around here…Mom can’t help me visit much this week because I am dictating all my posts for when she is gone.  She will schedule them and I will just use my iPad to hit publish with my paw, I can do that much at least.

Don’t forget the Valentine Ball being hosted by Mollie and Ranger…I am going to be with my good furriend Spitty…wonder if he will bring the FURRari??? Naw, probably not…nice thought though….

Have a great start to your week
