Trying to forget the bad and the ugly and see the good.

 "another trip out of my comfurt zone."

"Lynn dragged me off to git my blood sucked agin.

And now I'm dry as straw. I sang the song of my peeple

all the way there.  Cars pulled off'n the side of the road,

like they heard a siren comin'."

"I am 'membering my Valentines Day 

adventures to git over the nightmare."

"I'm dinin' with Rocky the ginger kitty.

And Katie is with Kat.

I had such fun on our ski trip."

"Katie and Kat and I had hot cocoa while

Rocky was skiing down the slopes."

"And lookie at my photo in a fancy frame furom

my BFF Jo Jo in Canada."

"And last of all,  I teleported to BC, Canada to a burfday 

pawty fur Nutmeg, the Nutty dog who lives with Jo Jo."

"The vet tech furom Dr. Feelbad's called and said my T4

was down a skoosh more.  2.5.  Says I don't have to come

back 'til October ifen I keep my nose clean and my paws

and claws outa trouble.  I said I'd come back when

H-E-double L freezes over.  But then I 'membered

this winter has been just like that!"

Warm Up "Cool Hand Luke"

 "Lynn,  ya shoulda shared this secret with hoomans months ago.  Before we turned into Antarctica."

"Maybe some peeples don't know about Hot Hands, and

how they make yer hands hot on a cold day."

Precious you are probably right.  These things work wonders

and I use them all winter long every time I leave home to

go to the store.  If you've not seen them, they are available

in Walmart in the sporting goods section.  Most hardware

stores too.  So inexpensive.  But be warned they do actually

get HOT so you need to keep a layer or 2 of cloth between

it and your skin.  And they do last 6 hours or more.

"Lynn,  I'll just keep my paws indoors 'til catio time."

Photo taken on Valentine's Day.  Still a frozen ice field.

"And luv yerself peeple. Keep warm and don't be fooled by 

March 20th date."

Reading on Friday the 13th

 "Lynn and I thought the 13th was a good day to read together."

"She found this magazine about kitties and how we 

operate. At least hoomans think they know enough to

write stuff about us."

"I know Mudpie and Valkyrie and Millie, Tinslee will like

this one."

"This is about me!  A Maltese! In my grey Onesie!

"And here is about Chili Bruce  and Manny of 

Eastside Cats; Smol Oona; Trouble too.

And we can't furgit Maxwell, Benny and Sable."

"Lynn says she's not sure how they conducted research.

You know hoomans can not speak Meow to learn

the true facts."

Precious,  it is a fun magazine and there were so many other

color of cats mentioned.  I agree,  I can not begin to 

imagine what goes through your mind!

Interactive cat toy fur hoomans

 "Ok peeples,  go out and buy an interactive cat toy.  Guaranteed to make any cat play."

"NOT"

"At furst I thought it had some kitty pawtential."

"But it was a bit much fur me."

"Lynn,  I like watching you watching the rolling ball.

You seem fascinated by the color lights and the

rolling around like a drunk sailor.  Me, I think

I'll just toddle off to bed now."

 

I recently put in an order to Chewy after Precious

had her treatment and was home.  I thought she'd

like the rolling ball with the wagging rope and

the silly noise it makes.  Well,  I do enjoy it

in the dark mornings,  what can I say.

The thyroid blood test showed Precious's T4 is down to 2.9.

Since she's sleeping now and won't read this, 

she is to have another blood test in a couple weeks!

I guess to make sure all is stabile. 

Thank you all for your words of encouragement.

Pawsitive Me, Blood test

 "Now hoomans, don't git the idea that I am willing to wear clothes 'cause I'm not.  But Lynn received this bandana and thought it was more appropriate fur me than her."

"I can purr to you that it did not stay on long."

"I am a pawsitive thinkin' kitty.  But you can see this is slip sliding

away.  I really just wanted the drawer open and better yet

if Lynn would have removed it fur me so I could crawl

in the dresser."

"Lynn took me to Dr. Feelbad's office and he sucked out my

bloods.  Lynn says I'm lucky he used a needle,  acause when

she was young with the dinosaurs,  they used leeches!"

It was only 7 degrees (-14 C) and the roads were not that

clean from the storm.  We had 20 inches or more. 

But we safely got her out and back home.

Precious had her back shaved between her shoulder blades

for the injections of I-131.  Both sites created bad scabs

and peeled a few times.  These are radiation burns. I can

imagine what happened inside. She now has just a bald area that

we hope will grow back fur.  The area was obviously very

sore and she wants no part of getting petted or brushed

there.  She tries to lick, but her head won't swivel that far.

We didn't get the test results yet.

Books to snooze by

 "Lynn thought we'd like to read this together.  It's about Japanese

cats that hoomans rent fur 3 days ata time!"

"These are make believe stories that seem believable. You'd

nevfur evfur git me to be rented out.  I work year 'round fur Lynn."

Precious,  you sleep more than you work.  But I love you for it.

Precious will have a blood test Jan. 27. Barring the after effects

of the upcoming blizzard.  We've already been warned

Tuesday's real feel temp will be negative 15 F (-26 C).

Hope everyone is safe during this storm.

"Not if I can help it!"

Burd Invasion!

 "What's happenin' to my catio!  I need to git out there and chase them off!"

"My fence is down fur the winter and Lynn puts out

food and water.  This batch of burdies keep me

busy lookin' sometimes."

"Sometimes they make my eyes swim in circles and I

go to bed.  I'm not allowed out in the snow and ice.

But I keep hoping fur the time I can.

Lynn says this passel of burds are Pine Siskins.

They flew TWA to my catio furom all the

way furom Canada.  I guess they have passports."

"And Woody Woodpecker is right outside my purrivate

window in the loo!  I almost coulda took a claw swipe 

at that red head."

"This is what I'm dreamin' about."
