The Rudy Report

Hello there kitties! It's ME! - RUDY! with your Rudy Report! It's fun to have a nap with Daddy - he has a cool sense of humor. He was trying to give me bunny ears. I was trying to sleep. Silly Daddy! We are happy to see that Parker is now grooming herself and has gained some more weight. She sends her love and thanks to all of you who have sent good wishes and purrs. Soon she will be well enough to pose for some photos and be back on her own blog.
My furs are growing back and it feels wonderful. They are soft and smooth and I am glad I have more of them now that it's cooler. Mommy and Daddy have spotted a feral kitty outside that they are now feeding and trying to catch. He's orange like me and we have named him Rogue since he is a wanderer. When we catch him, he'll go to the shelter for a wellness check and a neuter. If they can socialize him, he'll go up for adoption, if not he'll come back here to his territory and we'll set up a little shelter for him. As of now he won't come anywhere near Mommy or Daddy.
Mommy is getting ready for our little shelter's "Strut Your Mutt" that is on October 15th. Diamond gets to go but us kitties are going to take a pass on all of the canine fun.
I also hear a rumor that the 'rents are leaving us in a few weeks for some "alone time". Our awesome sitter will come, so I guess I am OK with that.
Keep those tails high kitties!

The Rudy Report With Another Parker Update

Hay ya' kitties, it's ME - RUDY! with your Rudy Report! Autumn on the deck rocks and I had a weekend full of fresh air, 'nip and treats. I love this time of year! I know we've been MIA lately, but all of our focus has been on Parker. On Friday she had to go back to Dr. Joe's because her wanted to do Xrays of her body. That was a tense day. She got dropped off and we had to wait a squillion years (3 hours in human time) for Dr. Joe to call Mommy. Well I am happy to report that she had no masses and she had gained about a half a pound! Dr. Joe just thinks that since she is prone to UTI's and she has a hard time shaking them that it made her feel miserable. She's become a lousy groomer (like me!) and she's still too skinny. I had a hard time convincing her to pose for some photos...

No! Get that away from me!

C'mon Mommy, I'm not ready for a photo!

Now everyone will see my matts...

 

And how skinny I am!

Parker is actually much better, but we have a ways to go until she is plumped up and matt free. She fights Mommy about getting brushed. But as you kitties know, Mommy always wins. Parker still has a heck of an appetite and she's enjoying all of the extra stinky goodness. We'll keep you posted as often as we can. It's a very busy time here in O Hi O!

Keep those tails high kitties!

A Perfectly Parker Update

The mom here - first of all I am sorry for not updating. Parker Pie is still struggling to recover from whatever it is that has her in less than "perfect" form. She's a little lethargic and still a little on the thin side. Her appetite is great and she's getting all the stinky goodness she wants. Her ver vist last Friday showed lingering traces of a UTI so she had to endure another shot from Dr. Joe. He wants to see her in a few weeks and if she's still not improving we move on to x-rays and a thyroid test. It isn't Hemobart like Rudy had - but we are still worried for our little gal.
I have my plate full with our little shelter, and, oh, that fulltime + job I have. So this little blog has suffered 'cause I need to spend all of the extra time hovering over Parker Pie.
I'll try to do better at updates, and any good vibes you can send for our precious Parker are greatly appreciated.
She sends much better smoochies that I do, but here's one from me  - Smooch!
