Toesday

I like to sleep on the couch on dreary days - that way if a bird happens to stop by the feeder I won't miss it.


Mom gave me a pawdicure - see my pretty pink nails. I don't like it much - it's so hard to get my claws into things now.

Of course we can't have a toesday without mentioning Percy. Percy's lump has begun to grow back, we had the surgery scheduled for October 24 but have since had to take the surgery off the books. Percy has acne that has gotten infected and they don't want to do the surgery until his infection clears up. At this point mom is hoping to get the surgery in right before Thanksgiving so she can stay home and keep an eye on him. Grandma made more blankets to try to help close the gap between what my mom and dad have saved and what we earned. They haven't been able to save much more as mom has been diagnosed with Hashimoto's disease and has had to go to the doctor a lot lately and get lots of new medicines. Hopefully we'll have a raffle up this weekend or next. We really want to thank everyone for their purrs for Percy - please keep your paws crossed that we're able to clear up his infection and get him that surgery before his paw gets any bigger.

Purrs,
Abbie No (that's apparently my middle name - mom and dad call me that all the time)

Until We Meet Again Sweet Pixie

It is with a heavy heart that we say goodbye to our friend, and Daisy's beloved sisfur, Pixie.


Daisy, our thoughts and purrs are with your family and we're all going to share a bananer just as soon as we find one.

Purrs,

Fluffy Friday

I love my brofur - he's fun to lay next to, give and get baths from and most of all he's fun to wrestle. We're two of a kind - being that we're both fluffy and adorable.

We have thought long and hard and debated over it, and these are our decisions in who to give our award to only four cats, since there's only four of us (sorry for breaking the rules). We just wanted to be fair and give everyone their say...

1. Eliot selected The Cats P
2. I selected Grr, Midnight and Cocoa (and Riley, and Max, and Rascal)
3. Percy selected Skeezix
4. Emily selected Shamy and the gang at Katnippia

Purrs,
Abbie

Wordless Wednesday

Goodbye Roscoe

We are so sad to learn about Roscoe going to the bridge. We were purring so hard for him and his family. We still have his family in our thoughts and purrs as they deal with their sudden loss.

Vet

Hi effurrybody,

Percy here. We are still sending out thank yous to everybody who donated/bought a raffle ticket, but if you haven’t gotten one from us yet, THANK YOU!! We are so grateful for everybody who has helped us, whether it was by buying a ticket, advertising the raffle or anything else you did. Winners, we received all the addresses and will be shipping out the blankets this weekend.

We raised A WHOLE LOT of green papers! Which is over half of what our vet quoted for the surgery. Way to go! We are thinking about a date next month for the appointment.

Speaking of that, I had to go to the V-E-T today anyway. We tried a new place near our new apartment and it’s so much closer than our old vet, which is really good because I HATE the car. Anyway, we are going to get a quote for the surgery from her too, since she is really nice (for a vet). Maybe it will be less green papers! As you can see, I'm napping with my brofur Eliot to help me get over the trauma. He's such a good brofur sometimes.

That’s all I have today. Purrs,

Percy
