Sometime on Friday night, somekitty puked all over Dixie dog's bed. We don't know who exactly, but smart money is on Cal. The lady took one look at the bed and said there was no way she was cleaning that mess up and decided Dixie needed a new bed anyway. Dixie has been using our blue fishy bed every since. Yeah, it's waaaay too small for Dixie.

So, on Monday, the lady took the money from the pool table sale and hit the Internet. Petco was having a good sale and free shipping! She bought Dixie a very nice new bed that is off the ground, like a cot. We're sure Maizy Grace will enjoy the new bed as well. For us kitties she bought a water fountain!! Cal's prednisilone really makes him thirsty and pee a massive flood. For the first time in his 10 years of life, he has started drinking out of the kitchen faucet. The lady is hoping the new fountain will satisfy his need for flowing water.We can't wait for our cool new stuff to arrive!

***Update on Pop***
Pop had a pretty good appointment yesterday. The dr. believes he is improving. There is still infection in the foot bone, which causes his whole foot to swell and turn purple every time he puts it on the floor. The dr. has decided to cut back on the least potent antibiotic and remain the same on the strongest one. He will need another 3-4 weeks of IV antibiotics and then probably another 1-2 weeks of oral antibiotics.Thanks for all the purrs, you are all so very wonderful! Now we need to add our Nana to the purr list (she is the lady's mom and was Caddy Caddy's mom.) She learned yesterday at the human vet that she has Hashimoto's disease and high blood pressure. She will be going to see an internist soon to hopefully get both conditions under control.

We are pleased your Pop is feeling better and are sending purrs for your Nana.
We fink the picture of Dixie in your blue fish bed is hilarious. Boy does he need a new bed.
We are pleased you are getting a water fountain. It's on our wish list but wiv VET bills for Alfie, Mom said we gotta wait. She said money doesn't grow on trees!
We vote for the attic space being made into a "very cool kitty playground!"
We can hardly wait to see a picture of Dixie on her new bed...but seeing her with her in the little one made us laugh! I think a kitty gym where the pool table used to be would be a ton of fun!
We'll continue our purrs for Pop and Nana.
We haz a loft too... and our servants let visitors sleep there when they come to stay fur a couple days... One of us always SLEEPS with that person to keep them company! Usually Tommy- the blue Maine Coon boy... plops on top of them to be sure they stay in bed.
In our loft we haz- giant litterpan- really a concrete mixing pan with LOTS of litter in it. We are VERY big kitties and don't fit so good in a regular large pan... We have a cat house and tower... A day bed with a cat quilt... a regular bed... lots of cat decorations.. so the servant calls it the KITTY BEDROOM! It's the whole top floor in our cape-cod style house...
We are LOTS of FLOOF as you said...
Mom-servant says... suPURRfluous FLOOF!!! Of the 8 of us... Puffy is medium haired... Furby, Candy, Tommy, Joy & Pride- are LONG haired- shaggy... Sunny & Moony are domestic shorthaired kitties... so 6 FLOOF... 2 sleek!
We vote for a kitty play room!
That is so cool that you get a new water fountain and Dixie gets a new bed!
We will continue to purr for Pop and add Nana to the list!
Hooray for exciting new pet stuff. I say, turn the empty room into the best cat playground ever!

We are very excited about your new purchases. Dixie really needs a new bed -- that little one is way too small but funny to see. We'll keep purring for your family.

That picture of Dixie laying in the cat bed is too funny! Does she think she's a kitty? We are happy to hear the doctor thinks Pop's foot is getting betters but now we are sad to hear your Nana is not well. We will keep her in our thoughts and purrayers also.
Wow! You guys are lucky that your lady decided to use the money from the pool table sale to buy you stuff! Dixie does need a new bed!! Hahaha!
Hope Pop continues to improve and we'll start purring for Nana now...we hope she is okay...
wow, that sure is one small bed that big doggie has his butt in! I will await more pics of the Cot-like bed. Glad Pop is doing okay too XO
We're glad dat you're going to get a fountain. Annie cat says that she deserves one but the biped thinks she can just drink from da drippy faucet. We guess the biped is a bit miffed cuz we bought the generic cookies and coke.

Can't wait to see your new stuff!! Dixie does look silly on that teeny bed,heehee
Good news for Pop but sad news for Nana :(
We will send her big purrs, and continue with Pop's!!!!
Purrs Mickey,Georgia & Tillie
Ah, look at Dixie in the little bed! I'm glad you are getting a new bed and a water fountain! We loved our water fountain, but we're not using it for now in case part of Harley's problem was the plastic. I'll bet you can find something great to do with that nice space. Maybe a little photo studio!
I am purring still for your Pop and for Nana.
I vote for a kitty playground!
I am purraying for your Pop and for Nana.
That kitty playground sounds like a *great idea!
Sending get well wishes to your Pop and to Nana ...
I vote for the cat playground. Purrs to Pop and Nana, they thought Mommy had Hashimoto's too but she didn't.
Sending purrs to your pop and nana, lots of them.
How cool that you get new stuff. Your humans did not need that pool table anyway and now you will get much more useful stuff!

oh poor Dixie looks uncomfortable in your little bed. we hopes that she likes the new one! we is purring for Pop and Nana!
That dog looks silly! But the pool table looks like a nice place to play and maybe scratch a bit? Won't you miss it?
We've got a water fountain and it's great, but we still get the humans to turn on the faucet from time to time. We don't want them to get too lazy!
Your humans have a lot of worrying to do at present. Our purrs are coming your way for sure. It is great that you are getting such cool new things! Hopefully the drinking fountain will help Cal!
Purrrrrrrrrs, Siena & Chilli
P.S.: Thank you for the video tips, we have to send our mom to a training center now...
That's good news the doctor feels your Pop is improving! I'm so sorry to hear Cal is vomiting again :( I hope today he's not vomiting anymore. We'll add your Nana to the purr list, too. I hope soon those conditions will be better for her.
We are sending purrs for your Pop and your Nana. We laughed at Dixie in your kitty bed. We came to see the photo of Ferris and you are right, he does look like me. We even sit the same way.
