In Our Little Corner Of The World...

Goober, with his new forever family!
Hi everyone! I thought I would give you a little update between my naps. As you can see, Goober, the dog who showed up on our front porch (poofy tails!!!) and almost became a member of our family, was adopted last week. Mommy said he's going to a great family who will love him AND he has a dog-sibling. I just hope that they change his name...
As for me, naps are my favorite thing. I am so tired all of the time - well, except when it's time to eat. Yup, I still have my famous appetite and I get treats like you wouldn't believe kitties. I am doing my very best to make sure that I get to see Santa Claws come down our chimney and fill my stocking. That's my 'rents Christmas wish as well. I think your prayers and sweet good wishes are helping me hang on for a while. Thanks kitties and beans.
Our Christmas tree has been up and we take turns napping underneath. It smells wonderful. I don't see very well any longer so my nose has been helping me identify things - like roast chicken and Temptations! I'll say see you later for now, I need to take a little nap. Mommy has not taken a very good photo of me lately, so I leave you with my tried and true profile photo and a smoochie.
Peace kitties, I love you all.

Parker, circa 2007

Hi Parker!
We are so glad you felt like writing and letting us know how you are doing. Naps and treats sound good.
We saw the picture of Goober and his new family, they all look happy. Your rents did great with him.
Take care and enjoy your Christmas tree!

Parker, that's great news re: Goober. The mom recalls someone telling her that in the southern US "goober" means peanut, but we're not sure that's the case.

We're purring and purraying that you stick around for Christmas, too. Your updates make our hearts hurt, but we know you will be okay, even when it's time for you to cross.

Much love and universal Light to you all...peace and blessings.

We're also glad to hear that you are still eating. We're purring and praying for a great Christmas for you and the 'rents.

napping and snacks - the recipe for a perfect day! We are continuing to send you purrs....

As for dogs showing up - glad it was your house and not ours. We will accept the foster kittens but we have a strict no dog policy!!

We are glad you are getting some good health naps throughout the day. That's very important. Purrs to you Parker Pie!

Napping and snacking seems the purrfect way to while away the time until Santa Paws comes to visit Parker.
We hope that you and your family will have a lovely Christmas together.
Lots of Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx

Our Dearest Sweet Parker Pie,
We were so very happy Goober found a great forever home. As to you sweet one, just nap as need be, enjoy your stinky goodness treats and wait for Santa. We love your signature picture. Mommy has been following your blog since 2007. It is too bad about your eye. Our Mommy is almost blind in her left eye. So we understand. Mommy's nose isn't as sharp as yours though.
Oh, sweetie Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you Parker and to your family.
God Bless. Take care. We love you so much.
Angel Normie, Mika, Sasha & Grady
P.S. Mika was officially 13 on Sunday. A teenage Burmese.

That is good news on the doggie. I bet the Rents are breathing a sigh of relief that they found a good home for him. I'm still purring for you sweetie. Just so you are comfortable, and not in pain. M wants to give your booitiful face a smooch, but I wouldn't let her if I were you. She's slobbery. I'll give you one tho - SMOOCH!

Having you there for Christmas would be a wonderful gift for your rents, Parker, but we do understand you are tired. We hope you continue with quality of life right through the New Year. We love you.
