this font is kinda small, bubble reads
Madi here with a wee bit of advice.  When your mom says
look at the camera, DO IT. Otherwise there are consequences.

JUST SAYIN'


Friends, It is I, Madison D. Cat, with a grand announcement....

I would like to invite you to pawticipate in a ROAD TRIP hop to 
celebrate my 16 birthday.   I will be 16, on Sunday, March 11th.  

Please feel free to snag this photo to use you can make it smaller or larger.

here is a slightly smaller  photo

We thought it would be fun to have all our****** friends (2 and 4 leggers) tell about learning to drive: if your parents taught you, if you went to driver's ed and the fun or not so fun things that might have happened.  Another idea would be to 
tell about a road trip that stands out in your mind as memorable, good or bad or funny.
  Doesn't have to be long.
We would love to have you all join us to celebrate my 16th.
Mama of Mayor Arty, Jakey and Rosy SassyPants will set up a blog hop for us.
The hop will be set up and ready for you to pre-post TODAY March 1, 2018.  You may reach it by

Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss


My name is Madi
but I am not catty!
When my din din is not ready,
sometimes I get 'maddie'
I never wear booties
but sometime I wear hatties!
We have reached the end of this
madi-ness.

Dr. Seuss thanks for all the gazillion hours your work has delighted, taught and nurtured 
children.




Here is another ditty in honor of Dr. Seuss' day.

Socks on the floor for me to explore
Socks  in a drawer from the store,
Socks  in my nose 
that should be on her toes
Socks here and there.
A hoarder she is furever more!!!!


Respectfully submitted 
by Madi and Mom just two Senior
ladies who are never bored.

Thoroughly Poetic Pictorial Thursday


First of all thank you all for you kind POTP and comments regarding my 
health update yesterday.  
We are thrilled to say that my appetite is back and I am
taking my meds in my food like a big girl.
::::::::

Now for the regularly scheduled program
::::::::


Today we join Two  SPOILED CAT 
Angel Sammy and Teddy for their poetic pictorial poem.

This was a very challenging but beautiful picture!!



Try
Madison D. Cat and Mom


When the Mom saw this beautiful photo, she said oh my
a poem with this I might not try.
 Mom, I said, don't be remiss,you can do this.
She looked at me and said oh yes
I think I can if I bump my head.
Maybe that would shake up all the gray matter like a snow globe ball.
Never one to be defeated she stood tall 
Ready the challenge meet. 
Try she did for nearly a week. 
Standing on her feet, sitting on her tush.
Finally her brain all shook 'til it turned to mush.
 Madi, she said, the purrty purple skies
with a hint of sun rise 
Make my mushy brain happy I
gave it a TRY.

Wordy Wednesday: Health Update

G'day friends!!
You know we seniors are all about keeping things real and true here....so
I just wanted to tell you last week on  February 23 and 24 were ROUGH days for
this itty bitty senior kitty. Mom thought I wasn't feeling the best on Thursday
but you know we all have rough days. I won't go into all the gory (what I ate came back) details just say I had to go to the Vet Friday 2/23 and Monday 2/26.   
For the record, I'm not a hissy kitty at the vet but Friday's visit started off on the wrong paw!!  
When I arrived, there was another kitty singing the song her people in 1 soprano, ....so I hissed joined her. Then the Vet Tech got way too purrsonal with my tush...YIKES...so I hissed.
Finally my bud Dr. Szabo came in, good news was that over all Dr. Szabo thought I 
looked good. MY weight was finally up to 7 lbs. WooHoo.
My kidney values were very good...thanks to the meds. 
Problem is my meds are administered in my food so I HAVE TO EAT!!
He took me to the back to give my Cerenia shot via my SUBQs (Cerenia shots sting that is why they do them in SUBQs) and he gave me an antibiotic shot.  OMCS was mom embarrassed when Dr. Szabo returned with me wrapped in a thick towel like a taco.  NEVER EVER IN in all my years have they ever had to do this.  Evidently I got a wee bit testy back there...I had to show them my concealed weapons!!  As I said, the visit started off on the wrong paw and steadily got worse.  I might not have felt good but my gumption was in tact!!
I slept for the rest of the Friday. Being testy is tiring.  
Saturday Dr. Szabo called to see how I was doing.  He is my Bud!!
Mom said still not eating the best.  He said to give the antibiotic time to kick in...
I normally eat an entire can of stinky goodness in one day.  I barely at 1/2 can all day Saturday.
The peeps went to bed worrying; however, I surprised them by meeting them in the foyer at 6 am Sunday.  Mom gave me a small breakfast, I napped a bit, watched them eat then decided to finish my breakfast.  When Mom went out for the news paper she told Dad there was a nice breeze and the birds were singing.
THEN SHE OPENED THE WINDOW AT THE SINK...MY EARS PERKED UP WHEN I HEARD THE SERENADE BUT I COULD NOT FIND IT  
(we rarely open windows).
Mom plopped me up by the window.....now I'll let these two collages and video at the end finish my story.






I  you can't see this video click here to see it on YouTube


Early Monday 2/26, Mom called Dr. Szabo due to worsening issues a lady does not discuss.
He suggested mom try to give me some plain or vanilla yogurt or pumpkin to see
if that helped settled my tummy. NOPE I wasn't having either of those.  Showed mom my back
of 200% itty bitty kitty DISRESPECT.  So off to the vet at 10:00 am
Dr. S felt my tummy and said my intestines felt swollen and inflamed.
Same thing I had in June 2017 so he treated it the same way with another Cerenia shot and an anti inflammatory.  Paws, eyes, legs and arms crossed this treatment gives me 8 months of feeling good and I'm back to eating like Miss Piggy again.

As you found out in yesterday's post, I'm just 2 weeks shy of my 16th bday.
We think things have taken a turn for the BETTER  and we three seniors are continuing our 
Motto
THANKFULLY
LIVIN' AND LOVIN' ONE DAY AT A TIME

OH MY FRIENDS....

On Friday morning Google Fiber arrived in our neighborhood with a vengeance.
No warnings, no notes on the homes NUTTIN...they just arrived on Friday morning
and started to tear up our yards and our streets.

And it is noisy they have this big sucky monster that comes along after the break up the
streets to suck up the debris

They are all around our house.  This is our side yard.
They are digging holes deep enough to bury a tractor!!

Crazy thing is AT&T Uverse came thru about 2 years ago.
AND Google fiber is laying their cable in the exact same places BUT
they are tearing up our YARDS again.  WHY didn't they coordinate their 
digging? NO CLUE.. Spring in NC is not the time to put down new grass seed
it gets too hot too quickly.  So now everyBUDDY is gonna have ugly brown spots in their yards.
DADDDDDDDDDDDD walked around shouting HBO words.  He works very hard to keep our yard nice and green.  We are so sorry DADDDDDDDDD.
Mom is in our blog office.   I retreated to the only room w/o windows on the back of the house where it is pretty quiet.


AND the worst thing is we don't even want GOOOOOOOGLE FIBER!!!
Bah humbug
