Nature and Feline Friday

Hosted by my Niece Rosy, and her 2 brudders Arty and Jakey HERE


This jewel has really put on a show this spring.

We took a short road trip to Wilson, NC on April 30.
As we entered the city limits we were welcomed by the beautiful 
canopy of hardwoods.




Dearest Aunty HiC
I’m thrilled the peeps didn’t run errands, and decided to stay home with me today! 
Mom and I walked before it got too hot outside. I always enjoy my outside time.  Hope you’ve had a great day, too. 
❤️ Kat Your Feline Nephew






Dearest Nephew
OMCs that photo of you on the deck gently touching the bunny's ear is just too precious.  MOL MOL I love your swagger when you are out and about.
I'm so glad you and Mom had a nice walkie
Lovingly your Aunty HiC

Thoroughly Thankful and Poetic Thursday

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

Here is our photo challenge


Under the Giant Sequoia TREE
by Cecilia
If that were me, standing under this tree,
in AWE of it's grandeur I would be.
Quietly I'd listen as the gentle breezes 
whispered to me thru the leaves.
Inviting me to hear what 
My Mind's Eye sees this
Giant Sequoia standing silent and strong.
Biding me to love and care for it
Just as others have done for millions of years.
If that were me, standing under this tree....

*******************************
I am also joining Brian and family for

My nephew Kat sent an email to me that he would like for me to share on
Thankful Thursday.

Dearest Aunty HiC
I was just sitting here with my favorite catnip toy, thinking about all the sweet comments from your blogger furiends. It makes me happy to know so many peeps, kitties, and pups like me. We are both very
 THANKFUL
 and send virtual nose taps and head rubs to all. 
❤️Kat Your Feline Nephew

and crazy
Pup photo bombed my picture with a very odd request

I replied, yes Kat there are somethings in life we don't share like
Catnip. I know you are thankful Pup did not SHARE
the aromatic coyote poo he rolled in last week!!

Forest Pansy Redbud's leaves are red after it blooms, gradually turning green 



Friday April 26 Sassy came home with an entirely
NEW 'tude.  She spent some time at Bernina's  Spa and Rehab facility.
She hopes you like her new image.

and as you can see from the bottom photo she learned some fancy stitches too.
This story will be continued.....reminder quilt top is red and white prints
sewn together


While she was away, I purchased fabric for my quilt border red fabric and backing (kitty cat fabric)
and the binding
I also purchased a Mini Quilt kit that is supposed to be
super easy, so much fun and includes quilt top, quilt backing, quilt binding and
easy-to-follow instructions.   Had I known about the kit I might have started with it first
You know what they say about hind sight?!

Sunday Selfies and Thank you


Email: Saturday April 20, 2019
It was chilly in Dixie


Chilly enough for a fire here on The Hill today. Pup thinks he’s got the best seat in the house, but I know better. I pre-fur staying close to Mom.

😺❤️😻 Kat Your Feline Nephew







Dearest Kat
I agree with you...staying close to your sweet Mom is the second best decision you have made....first being trusting your new family.

Lovingly your Aunty HiC

Thank you all for your birthday wishes for Dad of Madi yesterday.
He had a very nice bday.  FYI: The week of our birthdays
all food is calorie free and HEALTHY. LOL
Five days a week we walk 45 minutes to an hour and ride the 
recumbent bike at least 20 minutes
Saturday and Sunday we just ride the bike.

Now for a little Drabble humor
Having been owned by Toto, the might mini Dachshund, we always enjoy
Wally. However, I wish they would use bolder ink and the font
is often hard to read.
Maybe you can biggfy it on your end too




Toto had a PhD in door bells.  In our first home, 
the front and back door bells had different tones.

KNEW exactly which one needed his attention and he ran at Mach Dach speed. 
He sounded like a Great Dane when he barked especially at the back door which opened into our laundry room and he echoed!!
Gospel truth: There was about a 6" gap between the washer and the dryer.   With each thunderous bark his mini body would move backwards. I lost track of the number of times his tush got wedged in the gap. If I wasn't there to pull him out, his front feet would 
start the famous Dachshund Dig.

1: Toto on the move he never realized he was vertically challenged
2: Waiting by the bathroom door for his Sissy to finish her shower.
3: napping in Sissy's room
