My Friends - Friends Friday and Award

This is our first participation in Kiddo's Friends Friday!

This week we spotlight new friends over at Noir's Nook. They have a big fur family like us! Cat bloggers Noir, Earl Gray, Perry, Mommy, Peyton, and Uncle Maxx live in Texas with their girl, Tommy. They have been blogging since December 28, 2008.

~Noir~
I'm handsome. I will sit and stare at you, until you either play fetch, pet me, or give me pizza. Like a comfy lap, plus a window to watch birds and the world go by.

We think everyone should stop by Noir's Nook and and say hi!

The very lovely and sweet, Siena and Chilli , passed this friendly award on to us, Thanks gals! We are blessed to have you as friends!

We would like to pass this award on to some new friends we've met on the blogosphere:

Noir's Nook, Elin, Emmy and Family, and Mr. Tuck's Neighborhood.

***Thanks to all for the purrs for our Pop***

Earth Angel - Purrs Needed

This was supposed to be wordless wednesday, but we have an update on Pop!

***Update on Pop***

We're afraid more purrs are need for Pop. He has started having severe muscle spasms in his foot which cause lots of pain. He is still unable to apply any pressure or walk on the infected foot. Today was supposed to be his last day of the IV antibiotics. However, since there was no improvement and it actually seems worse, they have put him on Rifampin which is used to treat tuberculosis and meningitis. They also added Bactrim, which is just another antibiotic. They are hoping to get a referral to a specialist very soon.

Keep those purrs coming!

Why's Everybody Always Picking On Me?

Dixie, Dixie, Dixie.........our sweet, clueless woofie!
You sure are special......... in more ways than one!

Dixie never did warm up to her new bed from last week, but we sure did! The servants decided to get her a different bed over the weekend -- to keep her off of ours.

When we're done breaking it in, we'll let her have it!

***A note from CC***

Just wanted to give ya'll an update. I'm adjusting very well and have found the kid's pet fishies! The fishies have a cave to hide in, so I can't get to them! I absolutely love the laser light ya'll sent and will pant so hard from running around trying to catch it. I'm such a good cat. Trust that I'm in a good home and my new family will take good care of me! Oh and the kids are still in love with me.

XOXO,

CC

Don't Come Around Here No More - Movie Monday

The introoder kitty, Spunky, paid us a visit on Saturday night. You know Spunky with permanent crazy tail! He hasn't been around much lately, which is good! We guess since its been so cold, his servants have probably been keeping him in the house. Well it seems, now that it will start warming up, he will probably be back more often. We don't like that!

And who put the food out on the porch for him!!! Looks like the lady servant is gonna need a stern talking to, we'll give her a warming this time........

Love Reign O'er Me - Awards

We were given this very loving award by Junior and Orion and The Monkeys, Samson and Delilah and The Misdaventures of Me!Thanks guys, we feel so loved!

"LOVE YA" award winner... These blogs are exceedingly charming. These kind bloggers aim to find and be friends. They are not interested in self-aggrandizement. Our hope is that when the ribbons of these prizes are cut, even more friendships are propagated. Please give more attention to these writers. Deliver this award to eight bloggers who must choose eight more and include this cleverly-written text into the body of their award.

We are going to pass the love on to.........

Cory, Siena and Chilli, Little Cat Feet, Cliff and Olivia, Laila and Minchie, Mommy's Little Fat Boy, 8GR8CATS, and Noir.

Junior and Orion and Cliff and Olivia gave us the great Proximade Award. Since we already received that one, we won't pass it on again. Thanks again Junior and Orion!!!

Just Got Paid

Just got paid today, got me a pocket full of..........mice!

We are all so happy the weekend is here! It is supposed to warm up and the forecast for Sunday is 70 degrees! We are hoping to hang out on the back porch and catch some rays.

We think the fresh air will be good for Cal. At his weigh-in on Monday he had lost a few ounces. He had some bloods stolen and the results showed a slightly elevated wbc count and slight anemia, his thyroid, kidneys, etc. were normal. He continues to be on prednisilone daily is eating very well (about 4 times a day) and acting normal. His stools go from normal one day to mushy "cal pies" the next. We may go forward with another test next week which will show if he has malabsorption syndrome which sometimes coincides with IBD. Please continue to purr for Cal!

Our Pop is on the road to recovery, although driving our Nana crazy :) She can't quite understand how a man (who is supposed to be layed up all day and off his foot!) can get a house so messy while she is at work. A few more weeks of antibiotics and he should be good to go! Our Nana has her appointment with the internist next week to see about effectively treating her Hashimotos.

Have a fabulous weekend!

Drink The Water - Movie Monday

This movie is all about water!


Our new water fountain arrived on Friday. This is the second one we've had, the first one was about 6 years ago, so most of us never used one before. Maya has spent many a hour behind the fountain trying to find out the inner workings. He spilled so much water on the floor, by the end of the night the lady had to put a towel down. Maggie May is one of the few who actually drank from the fountain, but then she tried to cover it with the towel. Maizy Grace stuck her paws in and that's about it. Then there's Cal.........Cal is old school, he still insists on drinking from the kitchen sink. Go figure!
We hope you enjoy our feature presentation!
