Wait, what?

Oh man, mom informs me I am to have my dental tomorrow. I thought Mondays sucked, now Wednesday becomes 'torture the kitty' and 'rip out her toofs' day. The only good thing about it is that stoopid Sadie won't get to eat after midnight either. Or Speedy, but I feel kinda bad about that one. He's a sweet brofur. Mommy has already been spoiling me tho. She's all "c'mere sweety, want some cream?" and "oh, sweet Zipzip, did you want my chair? Here you go." because, well, frankly, I'm old. I'm 14 and even tho Dr G and Dr J both say I'm very healthy (except for a little bit of arth-ur-itis in my hips) so there should be no problems....but you know how moms are. Guess it won't hurt if our blogging and Facebook friends said a little purr fur me.

Hi, it's me, Speedy, wif an update on my sisfur. She's home, mommy went at 4:30 and gotted her, dey hadda cut out one of her toofs! She seems fine, just kinda tired. I'll be snuggling her da rest of da night...I sure did miss her all day. Oh man, mom bawt her baby food, I gotta try to get in on dat one. Baby foods is really tasty! Well, off to go give my sisfur lots of snuggles and kisses. Thank you fur all da purrs and purrayers!

Sadie has a special request...

Dis is Daisy Mae Maus, she's my frend and a fellow Rocky da Gutter Cat Vixen. She's not doing so well, she's furry sick, I'm gonna ask alla yoo to purr and purray fur her, please. It seems like effury year, around dis time, way to many of our frends gets sick or go over da bridge (sob)...we don't like dis. We want it to stop and we know dat purrayer works. So please, purr and purray, send healing light, anything you can or want to do to help DMM and alla our frends who is sick, hurting, haf beans dat is haffing finanshul troubles or any kinda prollems. Gramma useta say dat God always answers purrayers, even if da answer is no.

Where were we!

Well, daddy is doing better but still takes up a lot of mom's time. We just thawt we would let you all know dat we is still alive and well... mommy says she's surviving dis stuff, just not very well. Zippy needs to haf a tooth pulled and mom is gonna get dat done as soon as she finds some extra money, we said she should check da bottom of da laundry hamper and unner da cushins on da recliner but she says dat wouldn't be enuff. She is gonna work in da kitchen at an assisted living center a couple days a week and dat should give us enuff to haf it done by da end of November. Maybe Zippy will hafta eat turkey baby food fur Thanksgiving...it's weerd but dat tooth don't seem to bother her at all. She still eats her crunchies and asks fur stinky goodness and always, always, haf her sour cream treat effury morning.

Arrr, it be my purrthday

We gots da grog, da shrimp, da ham, more ham, some chick-hen, roasted beast, and all manner of vittals and libashuns. Drop anchor and peg-leg it up to da boofay or walk da plank ya scurvy dawg...or cat, or bunny, lizzard, bird, turtle...all are invited.

DADDY'S HOME!

We'z all happy and haf been giving him leg rubs, except on da one wif dat stinky bandage on it. Dat thing smells like vet office! We'll talk about it more later, fur now we hafta go and purr on him and rub our stink all over him so he doesn't get losted again.

Good news?

Well, daddy did it. He's coming home on Saturday...mom has to do dressing changes twice a day and give him the IV anti-biotiks two times a day for three days after he gets home. He will also need a walker, a shower chair, a raised potty seat wif rails and a grabby bar fur da bathtub...mom haf looked dat stuff up and hasta haf dad tell her which ones he wants den she can order dem. She went dis morning and had da nice lady watch her do dad's dressing (which is actually his bandages) and she signed da paper saying mom can do it. Tomorrow she goes fur a lesson on giving him da IV stuff, den Sunday a home health nurse hasta come and watch her do it to make sure she does it right, she might hafta come twice just to be sure. Mom sez she's purrty sure she can take care of daddy just as well as dey did der, maybe effun better, 'cuz he will be her only patient. She also sez she might even get more rest now 'cuz she won't hafta drive to da hopspittal and be der all day and haf da night. Da nice nurse dat signed off on her bandageing skills told her to take da rest of today off, but daddy was furry mad dat mom left and wasn't coming back...he even hung up on her. Den his other nurse told him dat mom needs to prepare fur him to come home BEFORE he goes home and when is she apposeta do dat when she's der alla time. He called mom back, but he still wasn't happy. He thinks his stuff is not in da way...he forgotted what a mess dis place was afore he left. He also thinks it should only take mom an hour or so to clean effurything up. Really, he's healing up in da leg and loseing his mind. She hasta move stuff around in da garage so she can put back da compressor and da medium toolbox he left in da hall, den she hasta flatten alla da empty boxes in da bedroom, kitchen and living room and put dem out der, den she hasta sort thru alla da boxes in da office and see if she can re-arrange stuff so der is not so many. She wishes she could just call fur a big dumpster and throw alla it out. After all dat she wants to vacuum all da carpets. An hour? Really dad, you've lost yoor marbles. But, crazy or not, we'll be happy to see him. We really did miss him.

Dad is working on getting home

He's doing re-hab now. He got to the rehab floor Friday night and right away on Saturday dey started him working. Mom was laffing 'cuz yesserday dey had him stand and put clothespins on a pole so mom said, "well, if nothing else you can always hang wash on the line for me". Yeah, daddy laffed at her too. Oh, and mom hasta fix da router so she can use her laptop again. She says it looks like a long, tedious process so she's waiting until she haf more time to do it and can concentrate on dat. We sure wish our niece still lived in state, den she could come help mom clean up dad's mess. It's taking furever to move all his junk just to clean da carpet. Oh, and da weather went from hot and humid to cool and breezy in one day. So, we haf open windows to lay in...it's lovely.

We are furry late wif dis, we'z blaming mommy...Thank you ML, without you we wouldn't know what was going on wif our friends or find potential new friends! So, THANK YOU ML!

Now, if we could just get mommy to work as hard as ML does...
