I've played that game Trina! It is fun!

I've been to my Lori's new place a few more times. Meomwy still won't let me off the leash, darn it. My nose sure got a workout though, new clothes hanging up to air out and they had such interesting smells. (they came from the church-fif) I could see more stuff put where it belonged and a few boxes were gone. I just hope she saves a couple for me to play in. I explored the bathroom but no litterpan yet though she did promise I'd have one in there soon for when I visit.
I get lots of kisses, hugs, and snuggles every time I see my Lori!

Glad you like your Tia's new place. It sounds nice. Hopefully she will be able to keep cool in the summer and warm in the winter.

Keeping warm won't be a problem....they provide lots of heat here for free (sometimes too much!). She's on the morning sun side of the place so it won't get as hot in the summer as meomwy's gets. She has the AC on already. My Lori has fans but I don't think she's had to use them yet (I did last night--too humid so needed to cool off). I could smell paint on her last night but it wasn't strong so didn't stop me from kissing her hello or snuggling. My meowmy has been sniffling and sneezing a lot lately. My Lori is on meds for it so not so bad but meowmy sneezed me right off her last night! And I was almost asleep too. I'm all nice and cozy, drifting off, and suddenly I'm launched into the air. Thankfully I wasn't hurt...gave Mom "the Look" and went to snuggle with my Lori instead. She gave me hugs, kisses, and after a long while went and got me a nice big dinner. I was so hungry I gulped, she burped me (boy that made me feel better), then ate some more. But I was tired so only gave her a cursory thank you snuggle after that trip to finish off my dinner and went back to bed in the bedroom window. Meowmy left without a word but my Lori came in to kiss me nitenite. I kissed her back.

I understand mi amigo. Meowmy went on a coughing spell that interrupted my attempts to snuggle with her last night. Tonio

My caddy does that. AAACCCHHHHOOOOO! and up I go. I think it's funny when I'm awake. When I'm asleep, it's scary.

I know, mi amigo. Nothing delicate about people sneezes. Tonio

My meowmy is still sneezing. Now she's battling high blood pressure...the pharmacy screwed up and filled the wrong prescription. She's been so upset trying to get it straightened out and the doctors office too...so short tempered I try to stay out of her way. She doesn't want me to help her explain to them on the phone....
My Lori has been so sweet to me, it helps make up for meowmys' bad temper lately. Nice big dinners, lots of hugs, kisses, rocking...and telling me I'm her one and only little sweetheart. But she came in yesterday smelling of the new dog down the hall, Daisy. I can tell she petted her more than once. Still, I forgave her. She has a big soft spot for all furkids but her heart is mine!

That's scary about the medicine. Do the best you can. Tonio

Gives purrs when you can. It helps to lower blood pressure. I know because my cardiologist told me so.

I try but meomwy pushes me away half the time. I purr really loud so maybe that helps even though I'm not lying on her?
My Lori has been showing up kinda late in the evening, hurting all over and tired. This unpacking must be very hard work....I'm glad I don't have to do any of that. I make sure to greet her at the door, purr for her, kiss her, give her a few cuddles, and remind her I'm the boss and no matter how late she is chores still need to be done. When I want dinner I want it now, the pan scooped, the water clean and refilled. I do reward her with at least a short thank you cuddle and a couple wetfood scented kisses. I was too tired last night to escort her home. In fact, I slept right through her leaving!

The warmer weather is making us sleepy too.

I didn't get to see my Lori at all yesterday! And she took meowmy away for a long time too. Meowmy came back with several packages and smelled of wonderful food but I didn't see her bring any home for me. She was really tired too when she came back. My Lori better show up today to see me or she will have to answer for it to me.

In my defense, yesterday was moms' birthday and I took her out for dinner, then shopping until nearly bedtime. Had just enough time to take my meds and get in bed at the regular time. And I did give Bij fresh catnip and a big dinner Monday night, and lots of cuddles.

So his tale of woe is not to be taken seriously.

Sounds like you are having a tough time, Bij. Did your Lori promise to come spend more time tomorrow?

She did, and she showed up too. I got fresh litter, toys, a big dinner, crunchies, water, and loads of hugs, cuddles and kisses too.

I nearly got bowled over at the door by an excited Bij yesterday. I think he was watching through the window, seeing me help build the raised veggie beds for our community garden (the dirt shows up today). Mom was gone a lot, visiting with neighbors, so I got Bij all to myself mostly. Lots of cuddles, purrs, kisses, and kitty attention. No nitenite kisses though since Bij was sleeping like a rock when I left.

Maggie was supposed to have eye surgery today, but the vet decided to move it up a day after he saw her in his office for the pre-op check. She's home now, recuperating. Hope those corneal ulcers heal now.....and her sight isn't damaged. We'll see next week after her post-op checkup.

Fingers crossed!

Fingers crossed. Let us know how the garden grows.

So far it's only dirt. No planting until sometime next week. Meanwhile my lil pottery garden is doing good.

Bij was ready and waiting for some lovin' when I got there yesterday. Tired but clean from a nice hot shower, I got the Eau de Bij hairdressing treatment. Kisses, cuddles, purrs, and a request for food immediately afterwards. Seems he's been extra hungry lately, asking at least every two hours. You'd swear he was a baby from all the feedings he wants lately. It was hit n miss for cuddles until after he got his dinner, then off to the couch with no so much as a burp in passing. Didn't even notice I was leaving either.

I'm beginning to feel taken for granted.

Silly kitty. Mine are eating more often, but less overall. I wonder if it's the hot/cold cycles we seem to be having.

Could be....he seems to have a one track mind lately: food, food, food.

Got ignored yesterday so had to insist on kitty attention. NO amount of begging worked so went after him several times to make him give me some snuggles. Seemed happy enough to give them to me once I had him in my arms. Guess I have to work for my lovin' huh? Gave a nice big dinner....and no thankyou. Not even a burp in passing. Disappeared into the bedroom, sleeping like a rock when I left so no nitenite kisses either.

Mom reports that Bij was watching the hummies quite a bit yesterday. They'd go to her feeder, then Brads, then back again to hers. LOL

Antonio and Trina are trying to get through the backdoor at the jays. They come and eat the cat food.

Mouski camps in the kitchen sink to watch the hummy feeder outside the kitchen window.

LOL Reminds me of the MUTTS strip from two weeks ago. May 17th....

Bij greeted me warmly enough yesterday at the door but I had to go after him for snuggles. But after mom had me go out to refill bird feeders the Feed Me Revue had already begun. No kitty attention after that except to ask for food. When I got his dinner for him I got no trills, no purrs, no thankyou, no snuggles, not even a burp in passing. Went to the bedroom to nap in the window. Didn't even acknowledge me when I tried to get a kiss from him.

I must need to bathe in catnip.....or find another kitty to cuddle with.

If you're in building that allows pets foster.
