Outside Part II

Mum took us outside again today!

I got a lot braver and I came out onto the grass with the other kitties. There was lots of nice grass to eat too! It was very sunny and rather hot because of my black fur. I laid in the shady parts mostly, but I did sit at the top of the stairs lounging for awhile too. I went back inside when the lady from upstairs came out with her little baby because I'm not really sure about all that noise it was making.

Mum is very proud of me for being such a brave Mancat today. She gave us extra stinky goodness for dinner as a special treat. Also, Pandora and Zowie are done their medication too. 2 good reasons for a special treat!

And also I wanted to point out the cool new header that mum made for the blog! It has that nice photo of me sitting all gentlemancatly on it!

The Outside

It's really nice out today, so mum took Pandora and Zowie outside. I cried at the front door, so she came back and put my harness and leash on. She knew I was a bit scared of the outside, so she left the door open and let me come out when I wanted to.

I can proudly say that I made it to the top of the stairs! And mum even has a photo to prove it. There were lots of great smells, and there were birds chirping in the trees that I was able to get a better look at.

Pandora and Zowie love the outside. They ate some of the grass, and wandered around sniffing stuff.

Maybe next time I will get even further than just the stairs.

Friday!

Mum has her laptop back, so we can post! Hurrah!

Pandora and Zowie get to take pills for 5 days - they are not very happy about that, and mum says that Pandora is not very good at taking pills because she likes to spit them out. I don't know if I've ever had to take pills, but I'm sure I probably wouldn't like it either.

The other day Pandora and I touched noses, and I licked her nose! Boy was she surprised! But I think she is starting to like me a bit more. :)

Toes Tuesday

You can see my toes in this picture that mum took yesterday. I am sitting very gentlemanly on the chair in the living room. (It has a quilt on it to keep the furs from getting too much.)

Mum's computer is going into the shop tonight, so probably no posting till she gets it back. Hope everyone has a good week!

Purrs to our friends

I wanted to send out special purrs to my pal Rusty because he's not been feeling well. His mum has taken him to the vet, and they're trying to figure out what's wrong. Get well soon, Rusty!

I also am sending out purrs to my two sisters, especially Pandora, because they're still having tummy upsets. Mum says she's waiting for test results from the v-e-t, and then they'll know more.

Also, it's Mancat Monday, and I am feeling very much like a snuggly Mancat today. I am laying next to Mum while she types on her laptop, and it is very nice and warm. I'm going to try not to snore, but sometimes I do.

The vet, litter boxes, and honeysuckle!

Here's another picture of me with the new fountain.

Pandora (and also Zowie) are back from the v-e-t. Mum says that the v-e-t is going to send some samples for testing, and that we should know very early next week if Pandora and Zowie have any parasites or anything. In the meantime, they both got de-worming medicine just in case.

Mum has been busy today! After the v-e-t, she went and bought me a nice new big litter box! My other one was fine, but it was a bit on the snug side because I'm so big. I also tended to kick litter out the door and onto the floor, so mum figured that a big, jumbo box would be good for me. The new box is very nice - it is green and grey, and it is much bigger than my old one.

And you know the best part?? Mum bought me a BIG stick of honeysuckle! It's such a big stick that I can grip it between all my paws! Mum also wants me to tell everyone that the shop she gets her honeysuckle at is called The Cat House. She says that they have a website - thecathouseinc.com, and that they apparently do mail order. So maybe some of you other kitties can ask your mums and daddies to buy you some. The small pieces are $1, and bigger pieces (up to really big logs) are more. Mum saw a really big log for $15, but she didn't get it for me this time.

Friday Present!

Mum bought us kitties a cat fountain today!

I quite like it already, but Zowie and Pandora aren't quite sure of it just yet. Mum even managed to get a couple photos of me with it. She said it was hard because I wouldn't sit still, but I like to try and play with the loop on the side of the camera.

Mum is also wondering if more than one of us kitties has tummy upsets, because she says it is hard to tell sometimes. I have this feeling that whatever treatment Pandora gets prescribed at the v-e-t tomorrow will be given to me and Zowie as well.

Not nip

Just being relaxed. I squint when mum takes pictures with the flashy box. I also way prefer honeysuckle to nip.

I heard from mum that Pandora gets to go to the v-e-t on Saturday, as her upset digestion hasn't seemed to improve. (Don't worry though, she's still eating and drinking just fine.)

Wordless Wednesday

Toes Tuesday

Zowie helpfully posed her toes for today's picture. (She's sleeping on the cushion again.) It's hard to see, but one of her toes is without its claw, because she got it caught on something and pulled it out when she was a younger kitty.

Holiday Mancat Monday

Today is a holiday in Canada - it's Victoria Day. It's also very wet and rainy out again, so us cats and mum are hanging out inside where it's warm. Here I am this morning, snoopervising the doings of the living room. Zowie is sleeping on the cushion and Pandora is snuggled up with mum because she's not feeling well. Mum said she's had an upset tummy. Hopefully she'll feel better soon.

Yesterday was a fun day because I got to see my friend Lori, who used to take care of me at the shelter. She came for a visit and gave me lots of cheek rubs and scritches. :)

Posting again after all

Mum still has her computer because the shop needed to order in parts. So we can post some more this weekend! Mum tells me that she met her friend Nina's cat named Mason, who is a big beautiful cat that looks almost like a tiger. He is as big as me, but he is also older and wiser than me. Mum says he is 18. I got to smell his furs when she came home, but I didn't get to meet him. Instead I got to enjoy the sun! It has finally stopped raining!
