Slacker!

Today Mamma took me back to the vet to recheck my shoulder from 2 weeks ago. They didn't have to take Xrays or poke me with more needles, but I have a feeling that next month, I get the business!
I'm a Mamma's Boy, I follow Mamma around the house, I want to be where she is. I sleep with her in bed and curl up under her arm. Mamma is showing me off again:



XOXO,

They're on to me!



I LOVE the bathroom! I LOVE the bathroom more than any other part of our house. I love to chew on the shower curtain and I love to watch the water dripping down the vinyl curtain!
Twice this week, I've been sneaky and I get back in the bathroom when no one is watching and I hide in the shower so the humans won't find me so I can gaze at that lovely shower curtain and the magic water drips!

I am a good boy!

About 3 months ago, I was very sick and Mama took me to see the vet. It was later found that I was in kidney failure (CRF- Chronic Renal Failure). (I am a Persian and its common for this to happen to my breed, that and I am 18 years old!) Later we found that we caught it pretty early and that a diet change, some supplements and Sub-Q treatments of LRS would keep me feeling good! Oh boy does it ever! I don't run when Mama comes out with the IV bag, because I know how good I'm going to feel afterward!



Mama took a picture of me getting a treatment yesterday, it was awkward! That tube you see going into my body has Lactated Ringers Solution from an IV bag hanging from the pots and pan rack. I only get about 150mL 2 times a week. I napped on and off yesterday after my treatment. I love my treatment time because I get 1:1 time with Mama. I get showered with hugs and kisses and under the neck rubs. I do try to sit still and be a good boy!

1 box, 2 uses!

We love when Mama brings home boxes for us to "relax" in. As you can see, my big brother Smokie, he likes to sleep in it a lot and when I find that he has spent too much time in "my" box, I boot him out by stomping in my box and take over! I like to roll around in my box and play and show off to Mama, who is usually standing over me with that damn camera! Someone please take that damn thing away from her! That flashy bulb on top hurts my eyes and makes me go wonky! Now, off to nap!





Love,
Abigail

Hi Friends!

Welcome to our blog! Just moving in here and hoping to make this a fun place to visit! We'll get settled in this weekend and be up and running soon!

A big shout out to our friend Gracie for her muse about her "humans." Her stories gave us motivation to have our own cat box in which to share fun stories, human interactions and whatever else tickles out fancies. You have been warned!

Catnip & Sleep,
Abigail and Smokie
