Parker Update

Hi everykitty and 'rent - I wanted to stop in and say hello. I'm taking lots of naps and eating lots of leftover turkey. I found a sunspot too - it felt good.
We had company over for Thanksgiving and I was able to visit with them. I still feel pretty OK, but I am very tired. The 'rents don't hover over me too much, but they sure do stick close. That's OK 'cause I'm always up for a cuddle or two anymore. No pain, good appetite and very tired. That about sums it up.
I hope your Thansgiving was full of turkey and love.
Smoochies!

The Rudy Report

Hello kitties! It's ME - RUDY! with your Rudy Report. As you can see, my furs are still very short, but are growing out. My fur feels like velvet and as a result, I get a lot of pets and strokes from the 'rents and anyone else who happens my way. So there's another reason that this shave-down was a good idea!

Mommy spent her birthday at the little shelter. They had a big garage sale and an open house. They raised a lot of much needed green papers, but the best thing about the day was, are you ready for this? - - - they adopted 12 kitties that day -  12 KITTIES!!! Mommy said that it was the best part of her birthday. One of the kitties had lived there for 3 years. She found a home with a great Mom and Dad and a big sister who just loved her! And the very last adoption of the day was Heather, who was Mommy's special, most favorite kitty at the shelter. And unlike the tears Mommy cried when the Bony Boys were dumped  at the shelter on Wednesday night, her tears this time were tears of joy.

Heather, about a week before she found her forever home.





So it was a pretty good week. There's lots more to share. Tomorrow Parker is going to tell you about her annual check up with Dr. Joe last Friday. She got a little more than she bargined for...
AND we will update on the Bony Boys, lots of good news there!
Keep those tails high kitties!

The Rudy Report

Hello, Hello, hello kitties! It's me - RUDY! with your Rudy Report! I have to tell ya' the 'rents had a great idea when they decided to get me a shave-down! I am matt-free, cool and handsome. The sun feels great on my coat, I don't have to deal with getting overheated and clean-up is a breeze. I also want to note that I have maintained my extreme handsomeness. I really don't see a downside to the entire ordeal - well maybe that whole PTU/grooming experience thing...but what's done is done...

Keep those tails high kitties - and stay cool, the hots are not over.



The Rudy Report

My little friend makes a great sun-shield!

Kunjhani kitties! It's me! RUDY! with your Rudy Report! Well today is the day I go and see Tiffany. I wonder how much fur I'll have left after it's all over. While I am at the groomers, Puff and Powder are going to be getting their geezer check-ups with Dr. Joe on the other side of town. AND Mommy has some tests she has to take. The PTU's were lined up side by side yesterday and we were eyeing them with great suspicion. Diamond started shaking his ears yesterday, so there is a pretty good chance that he'll be taking a trip to see Dr. Kathy today. He gets a yeast infection in his ears sometimes and that's what the 'rents thinks he has going on. If that does happen, he'll get a nail trim in the bargin. You know what? That only leaves Parker with no where to go...

Just the way I like it - so Ha-Ha Rudy!

The Rudy Report

Greetings from O Hi O kitties! It's Me - RUDY! with your Rudy Report! Oh sun, lovely sun, you were so nice to come and visit me. Everywhere I looked there were great sun puddles for me to soak up. I took full advantage, even when I was snoopervising Mommy cooking in the kitchen. I snoozed in a big sun puddle next to Mommy while she was computer-hunting on our molasses computer, I snoozed in another sun-puddle next to Daddy while he read the newspaper. I hope this means that Spring has moved in and all of the cold and gray weather is going to leave us alone.
There are flowers popping up and Mommy started to plan her herb garden. Daddy planted some catnip seeds in a big pot. We hope to enjoy some fresh 'nip on the deck this summer. There are signs of new life everywhere I look. That's the best part about this time of year. New life, hope and sunshine. A kitty like me could not ask for more. Well, maybe a little more. How about some of that chicken in the fridge Mommy?

February Feeze

The sun is in my eyes, but that's OK with me. We don't get to see the sun very often this time of year. I need to soak it up while I can because a big 'ol snowstorm is heading to O Hi O.
Did you know that in a few weeks it's Valentine's Day? I hope I hear from my main mancat. I need him to come over and keep me warm. Love is in the air, and so is snow. Sigh...

Decisions, Decisions...

There's a spot of sun where I am sitting now, and there is food cooking in the kitchen. Do I stay here and enjoy the sunspot or do I go in the kitchen and use my pathetic kitty look and score a snack?
Decisions, decisions...

The Rudy Report

Namaskar kitties! It's me - Rudy! - With your Rudy Report! Well the 'rents weren't kidding about taking me back to Dr. Joe for a check-up last Thursday. I was once again stuffed into the PTU and taken to the opposite of the most wonderful place on earth. They examined my ::whispers:: pee and I still have some bacteria. Sooooo....for 14 days I have this liquid gunk (Orbax) shot down my throat. Let me tell you kitties, I give the 'rents a run for their money. Mommy said she never knew that I could be such a squirmy-worm! Four days down and ten to go and then I have to go and see Dr. Joe again!!! Cripes kitties, this is getting old! Stupid bladder infection...
I do feel pretty good. I have learned a new place to get the best water. Right before Mommy brushes her toofies every morning, I jump up for a good lonnnnng drink. This really torks Powder off because that was her "thing", now she has to wait for me to finish before she gets a turn. What can I say, I'm just not a gentlecat like that. After Powder gets a shot, Mommy can finally get down to the business of getting ready for her day. She can wait, we're worth it.
All weekend the 'rents cooked and all weekend we got nothin' - they are sticking to this "no tastes for the kitties" thing. Which sux mightily because you know what holiday is right around the bend. Let it be known - I will not be denied my turkey!!!

The Sun Will Come Out...

Here's Puff readying herself for the 80 degree weather that's coming on Friday!

That girl sure knows how to stretch!

W00T!

The Rudy Report

Hi there! Rudy here with the Rudy Report! While those silly siblings of mine got Furminated and enjoyed the process, I partook of the 'nip. They might all be a lot lighter, but I'm higher!!!

It was a wonderful weather weekend in O Hi O, the hots went away and we got mucho time on the deck. I have to say that Monday really has come too soon. Now Mommy has to go back to her crazy busy hunting place. Next week I heard the 'rents talking about her leaving us for another country! I know some of you kitties live in Canada, so you are going to need to keep an eye on her when she is there, OK?
