Purraying for Moki

We are purraying for a miracle for Moki. Please get better little Moki!!

Easy Like Sunday?

Well....the weekend is almost over & Mama has to go back to work tomorrow. Time flies............

We were all in bed snuggling with Mama this morning, it was all toasty warm with the warming blanket on. Fes was loving on Mama as usual, licking her neck and face, all of a sudden Mama yelled loud!! It seems that Festus decided to put the bitey on Mama's cheek! She's such a big baby, it was just a little love bite..........

The Work Week is over...............

Mama is home & we have the whole weekend with her!!! Why can't work weeks be 2 days & weekends 5 days?? That would work out so much better for us! She almost had to do the 12 days in a row thing again, but the Mombean & Dadbean got "coverage" so they didn't have to work.

Mama is still hacking & coughing, but she is feeling better. We are planning on getting lots of extra snuggles & treats this weekend! It's the least she should do since we spent all that time taking care of her. Ooh, she found us the Pounce Catnip treats & yummmmmm are they are tasty!! We see a lot of them in our weekend plans!

Busy, busy, busy.........

Sorry we haven't been around much, but we've been busy taking care of Mama. Don't know what she would do without us........

She'd been sicky for the last couple weeks, but she wouldn't call the bean v-e-t. Well....Tuesday, she had to call him! So she was home Tues., Wed. & Thursday....lucky for us that was also the 3 coldest days we've had this season.

As we all know, a cat's work is never done! We had to sleep on her (& the warming blanket) for those 3 days cause she was too sick to get out of bed much. Emma slept between Mama's feet, Sammy slept across her legs & I, Festus, had the toughest job of all. I slept up by her head & snuggled into her neck. When she was feeling really bad, I had to put my "arm" around her. A couple times I had to put my "arm" over her eyes so the light wouldn't bother her. Mama was surprised by that but I don't know why. She knows I take my job very seriously, silly woman!

She's got a nasty sinus infection on top of her other illness, so if you guys would send a few healing purrs her way, we'd appreciate it. We're tired!!

BREATHE...................

This is Mama Rhonda taking over the blog today. I've thinking & thinking just how I wanted to word everything. I was going to say that since I haven't been on the CB very long, maybe I didn't have the right to say anything. But I guess I have just as much right as anyone to say what I think.

I am NOT trying to keep the feud going........I just wish everyone could remember that we are adults here & not still in JR. High. I understand that not everyone will agree with the way others do things. That's fine, I don't have a problem with that, it's the name-calling & totally rude behavior that I DO have a problem with.

I hope & pray that Tesla & Hansel's Mommy will return to blogging. She will be missed.

I guess that's all I should say on the matter. I promise the next post will be all about the kitties!!

Vacation is over.....SOB!!

The last 12 days have flown by & Mama has to go back to work tomorrow. She has to work 12 days straight before she gets another day off......we are NOT looking forward to that! We did get in alot of snuggling with her though.

Mama is feeling better, thanks to everyone that asked. She still has an
achey head, but she says it's just mostly annoying. It just doesn't seem to want to go away.

We forgot to tell you that Mama got us a magic warming blanket the day after Christmas!! She says she got it for her, but since we all share the bed, we say it is "ours". Boy do we love it!! It's just too bad we can't have it on all day......we'd probably never leave the bed! As it is, she had to bring Sammy his bedtime treats to him in bed last night. He was all comfy & he wasn't getting up for nothin`!! We might be a little spoiled, but not much.....it's the least she should do for us, don't ya think??

Well, not sure when we'll be able to get Mama to blog for us again, but we'll still be reading up on efurryone to see how things are going. Take care efuryybuddy & we'll blog as soon as we can!! Love to you all!!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!

Mama didn't feel well so she ended up staying home with us, YAY!!! Not "yay" that Mama didn't feel well, but that she spent New Year's Eve with us! We all napped on the couch during the afternoon & Mama had a "Movie Night" until just a bit ago. She never does stuff like that, so we enjoyed it while we could.

Maybe this means that 2009 will be a better year than 2008.......we sure hope so anyway! So again, we want to wish you all a very Happy New Year & thanks for hanging out with us as we learn this blogging business. We love you all!!

Lazy Mama

We finally got her to sit at the `puter so she could blog for us. She's had the last 7 days off, so there is no excuse except her laziness. We'd fire her, but she's all we got.

Seems like efurryone had a good Christmas. We want to thank efurryone that sent us cards!! Mama was so jealous cause we got way more cards than she did! We had a furry quiet day, snuggling on our snuggly snuggles......Mama said that was hard to type, hee hee.

Guess our New Year's Eve will be fairly quiet too. Mama is supposed to go to Auntie Lori's......she'll have to spend the night since she can't see good enough to drive home in the dark. That sucks.... Luckily for her that her jobbie is only a few blocks from here & she has street lights to see by so she can drive home after work. She's also lucky that she doesn't have to go back to work until Jan. 5th, although she'll have to work 12 days in a row again. Oh well, more treats for us!!

Since it's hard to tell when we'll get our lazy mama to post for us again, we want to wish the entire Cat Blogosphere a very Happy New Year!!!

Secret Paws.....FINALLY!!

Emma checking out the packages after Mama opened the box.

Festus says, "Mmmmm, something smells good in here!"

Emma & Sammy are looking, Fes is opening a gift!

Emma thinks the bag smells good too. Sammy's helping Festus.

Aha!! A nice mousie, nom, nom, nom........

Loving the "Pawsbreakers" still in the package!!

Beautiful snuggles, fun mousies & nummy Pawsbreakers!!

We do love us some Pawsbreakers!! We've never seen them around here, but we are gonna make Mama look for them......they are Nom-tastic!!!

Thank you so much to Peggy & the Cats, we love our Secret Paws gifts!!

Merry Christmas!!

We want to wish efurryone in the Cat Blogosphere a very Merry Christmas!! We hope it's your happiest efur!!

Mama is MAD!!

Mama took pictures of us & our Secret Paws goodies & she's been working forever to try to put them on the computer, but it's not working!! Our ears are burning from all the BAD words she's been saying. We hate to say it, but our Mama has a litter box mouth on her sometimes......we need to wash her mouth out with soap!!

Mama isn't very smar.....umm......computer savvy, but she's never had trouble putting pictures on before. The darn computer tells her that she doesn't have the device plugged in, but she really does. She says she's gonna throw the whole #@%**&% bunch of crap out the door!! We think what really makes her mad is that she's gonna have to ask our "Daddy" for help.......she hasn't talked to him in 2 months & hates to have to ask him for help with stuff. He's really smart about computers, he works on them efurry day, but Mama doesn't like asking him for anything.

We might have mislead some of our friends on our last post........the beans that got in trouble for leaving their work early are the beans that Mama works for. Mama does childcare for their stickybean & little blurpybean at their house. Mama says they are wonderful beans & they are very good to her.

Now that we've wasted our post complaining about the computer & our "Daddy", we do want to say that we LOVE our Secret Paws gifts!! Festus even tried to bite Mama when she tried to take away the gift he was opening! She wanted to set things up to take pictures before they were opened, but Fes had other ideas! Maybe she can get things worked out on the `puter & post pictures tomorrow........we're gonna stuff cotton in our ears while she works on it........

Slippy, Slidey Thursday Night

We're getting freezing rain & Mama says it is very slippery outside. The Mombean & Dadbean left their work early tonight (which they got in trouble for) because the roads were so bad. The Dadbean drove Mama home & she left our car at their house for tonight. Hopefully Friday will be better.

When Mama got home, there was a box on our step........no foolin` she had to use an ice scraper on the box before she could open it!! It was our Secret Paws gifts from Babe, Bob, Summer, Isis & Romeo from Peggy's Place!! The box had lots of presents all wrapped in Christmas paper & Mama wouldn't let us open them yet.....she's so mean sometimes!! Maybe she'll let us open them this weekend while she's off work. Thanks efurryone!!

I hope our Secret Paws don't think we've forgotten them......Mama's been working so much she hasn't had time to get the package sent out yet. it will be a New Year's present instead of a Christmas present......just extending the holidays!!

Snowy Tuesday

Mama is not happy at all. She says she hates winter & it's not even "officially" here yet. It's snowing on top of the ice we got the other night, that's why Mama isn't happy. That & she noticed that the snow shovel is under the carport, so she has to walk through the snow to get the shovel to scoop the sidewalk. Boo hoo, poor Mama.

What we don't like is that it's 10 degrees outside, which makes it furry cold inside too. See, we live in a very old house with 2 wall furnaces. One of which doesn't work & the other one has a tendency to go crazy sometimes & not shut off. Which wouldn't bother us, we like 90 degrees in the kitchen! But Mama worries that it might start a fire when she's not here, so she shuts it off when she goes to work. We have an electric heater that she turns on, but it only keeps it about 60 degrees. We like it warmer than that but have to suffer through the cold until Mama drags her sorry butt home between midnight & 2:30 am. Oh, she only works until around 11:45, then she sits there in a nice warm house chatting with the Mombean & Dadbean furever!!!

See what we have to put up with?? What a bad Mama we have......of course when she does get home, she cranks that furnace up, gives us lots of treats & snuggles. Then we all get to sleep on her when we go to bed.....maybe she's not sooo bad. But for goodness sake woman, just come home when the beans get there!!

Blowy Sunday

The wind here has been horrible, but it did keep Mama home with us as she didn't want to drive in it.

It has been a weird weather day here in west-central Illinois. It got up to the 60's this afternoon, but it's now 25 degrees w/freezing rain & sleet going on like crazy!! It's supposed to change over to snow sometime, but we want the warm temperatures back!! We don't like cold & icy snow!

Between the strong winds & us sitting on Mama, she stayed home all weekend. We think it was good for all of us....we've missed Mama like crazy & she's missed us. She told us that she would have to work 12 days in a row again next month, but hopefully not until sometime in the summer would she have to do it again. She gets a week & a half off for Christmas & we are really looking forward to that!!

We have been purring, purraying & praying for all the sick furbabies & beans in the CB. Hopefully efurryone is on the mend. You probably won't hear much from us until next weekend (unless we can get Mama up at a decent hour in the mornings), but we will be reading up on efurryone's bloggies to see how you're all doing. We love you guys!!

Finally Friday

Sorry we haven't been around much.......Mama has had to work the last 12 days (including today). She is tired & we miss her very much. The good thing is she gets the weekend off & we're gonna make her stay home with us!!

We are so sorry to hear of the losses of our friends this week & all the sick kitties out there. We've been reading our friends bloggies, but Mama's been too tired to comment for the most part. We are purring & purraying for all our friends in the blogosphere.
