Tuxie Tuesday

Wow! We are approaching Thanksgiving. And mommy is going to a community dinner this afternoon.  But she does have a turkey to cook for Thanksgiving for us, so that's okay.  She's going with one of our neighbors (oh, kitties, she loves me, that neighbor. Such nice scritchies and pretty compliments).
BUT first, today is Tuxie Tuesday

and don't you forget it!

Tuxies rule!

Thankful Thursday

Today I am grateful for all the good kitties and their mommies and daddies who are healing. And the lost ones who have returned home. And blankies...

cause it's cold outside. I wish all who are cold could have one! 

Thank you Mommy for this one! 

(Yes that's me under there)

Thankful Thursday

Today I am thankful for my new box.  And the donation to our PayPal account.  We don't get that many, and every bit helps. I do need foodies and kitty litter once in a while (!), and a v-e-t visit (eek) once in a while. Not so "once" as foodies and kitty litter, though. So thank you, thank you!
I am thankful for the awesome scritchies this morning, too.
Did I mention somecat had their mommy make a donation to our PayPal account?
Have a truly awesome awesome day!

Now let me enjoy my wonderful box!

After Party, Anyone?

Thank you for coming to the celebration of me being here one whole year. Hope you had fun. I did. And my sister brandi enjoyed herself, too. She says they have lots of parties and stuff OTB and she is so happy that she and other of her old friends there can run and play and have more energy than they ever had here.  No creaky bones, no disease, no hurt. And they are waiting patiently for their loved ones to cross over. And of course, they spend lots of time watching over us, and whispering in our ears. Pay attention!
Oh, and thank you  angels and friends for the nice present today.  SUNPUDDLES! I am loving it.  If you want to come over and share, I would love to share, too.
I am two!

This is definitely an Easy Sunday. 
I am so happy that some of our newly crossed friends popped in to say hello. brandi said Ginger Jasper is settling in nicely, and Pip... well, he's being lovely sweet and crazy Pip.

My Gotcha Day Anniversary is TODAY!

Okay. Leave it to Mommy to get a late start.  I think that means we can party past midnight, all. It's

MY FIRST GOTCHA DAY ANNIVERSARY!

And of course, here to start the celebration is my sweet sister, Angel brandi:

Hello old friends! Yes, it's me. brandi! I thought It was time for me to meow a few words here! 

When I left mama I kept pawing her heart and nudging her to visit Petfinders. And when she did, I knew she would find Quinn. Quinn needed a home like I did once. And I nudged and nudged until mama made plans to visit Quinn. And I pawed her heart and I whispered to Quinn, and that was how their story began. I do still come and talk to Quinn once in a while, and I watch over her and mama, and I told her that mama would like it if Quinn would sometimes put her paw on mama's arm and do head bumps and purr for her and like tempies and other stuff.  I told her about hamm pizzas and stuff.  And I have told her she needs her own special things with my mama.

She doesn't eat from mama's fingers. She doesn't like tempies. Hamm pizza doesn't really interest her (that is truly weird, right?), and she likes mashed sweet potatoes!

Well, I told her she needs her own special things. But no tempies or hamm pizza? 

Anyway, I will certainly be around today if you would like to come celebrate with us. Mama doesn't have much, but we do have this stuff called Chicken Soup for the Catlover's Soul. And some Purina One Step. And maybe mama can scrounge up some Fancy Feast (another thing that Quinnie doesn't care for!). Maybe you can bring your own??

I'm hoping that some of you can help my mama with green papers, but I have heard how hard that is to do these days. She went to the human v-e-t yesterday and she needs new glasses.  There is always something. That social security is sure not helping a lot!

Quinnie is a good girl. She needs stuff, too.

Anyway, come help us celebrate! Still lots of blankies around! And lots of meowing to do!

love to you all, 

and a special kiss (of course) for my Sugar Pie, Mr. Hendrix! 

brandi

ps. Lots of kitties say hello from Over the Bridge. Some of them are planning to stop by today, I think. Anything for a party, ya know! And we watch over all of you, too, so don't be lonely for us, even if you don't see us here! Oh, and the woofies might drop in, too!

 So come on over if you have time, today. We'll be here! Bring sunpuddles if you can. We have feavers and the evil red dot!

Thank you all for helping us celebrate today!

Sunday Stuff

Sorry I haven’t blogged for a while.  Mommy has been having severe problems with depression and green papers. Lots of stuff has come up and she is on a limited budget and it’s hard to deal with things that we can’t pay for. So, she is having to figure out how to pay for medical stuff that insurance doesn’t pay for at all, besides the expensive “co-pays”, her foods, my foodies, my special kitty litter and the v-e-t and stuff around here that needs to be replaced, the list goes on and on. She tried to get food support but the county awarded her less than, than, well, less than a bag of kibble. For real! And she can’t live on kibble like I can! She thought it would be more, and when she found out about how much her food support was I think she cried for three days.  

Many people are in the same place as we are. Not on the streets, but definitely dismal. No one seems to be able to help. We just want so badly to write happy news. To write about Mommy’s sweetie (that would be me). But while she lets me keep reading some of my favorite blogs and writing stuff in some of the comment sections, and while she plays with me and feeds me, and pets me and grooms me and basically waits on me hand and foot takes  care of me, she also cries on me.  Mommies should be happy! I kinda thought maybe she would take me back to my rescue place. Thankfully, she’s told me she couldn’t give me back, cause she loves me too much, and losing me would MAKE her more sad. Mommy, I love you too.

So that’s it. Depression is very very hard. And Mommy knows there are a lot of you having similar problems so we can’t ask for help, can we?  If you can, please use the PayPal donate button on the right side of my blog. You will be very appreciated. If you can’t, prayers and good thoughts help too.

Mommy wishes very hard that she had green papers for the special items for sale and auctions to support other catbloggers, but she doesn’t. She wishes she had some talent that she could make money with, but she doesn’t. She wishes someone could help us, but…. Sigh. So many need help.

We know that not many read our blog.  I’m not Angel brandi. She was probably a lot sweeter than me to read about, anyway.  Well, maybe it’s just that I’ve only been around almost a year and she had many more years’ blogging and made lots of friends. But we read lots and lots of you when Mommy is doing okay. And loving all of you, we always wish you well.

Mommy and I are doing our best to say our prayers for others and leave encouraging and upbeat messages and stuff like that.  That is about all we can do.

So I will try to blog more. And love my Mommy. But having to give up necessities is, well, we don’t really want to talk sometimes, ya know?

We pray for you and appreciate your prayers for us.

And here’s something good:  My one year gotcha celebration is coming up! And, oh yes, Mommy visited the kitties at Pet Smart the other day, and met three tiny tiny orinch sleepy baby kitty brothers, and a sweet little older calico that wanted to play with everyone who came to see her.  I’m not jealous, just hopeful for them to all find their furever homes. And they all need love while they are waiting. And, yes, the three orinch brothers are going to the same furever home, definitely! They will NOT be separated!!
