Saturday Symmetry

I am a huge fan of lighthouses and red.
So of course I had to snap this photo.  
Not on the coast at all.  It is a storage facility.

Nature Friday from Cali, Kat and Rocky

  Nature Friday host LLB Gang   Click here Hostess Miss Mimi 

Thank you for hosting!

 


The peeps have never found a squirrel baffle that was effective! Dad put on his thinking cap and designed one that actually works. 


The squirrels have finally been outsmarted! They’re quite frustrated & perplexed! 😹


Mom puts plenty of seed on deck for squirrels, so they’re not doing without.

YES OUR DAD made this he is a genius 





Happy Feline Friday

Thankfuls from Kat and Thoroughly Poetic Thursday #185

Thankful Thursday hosted by 

 


Dearest Auntie HiC

Mom, Dad and I, Kat, would like to thank all our friends who offered so many kind words of encouragement about my recent diabetes diagnosis.

I’ve started on insulin for diabetes.
The peeps received a thorough tutorial from vet tech Rebekah, and then Dad practiced by giving me an injection of saline.
Its worth noting, Dad has an intense aversion to needles, & can’t even watch people receiving shots on TV without feeling queasy.
As you’ll see in the video, he was quite nervous first time, & Mom thought he might pass out, but he did great. I didn’t feel a thing! 😹
We both needed to rest a few minutes before starting home. When I got home, I stretched out & fell asleep.
Dr. Renee said I’ll feel much better in a few days❣️

Your Tabby Friend

KAT

HERE is an update post and video


Kat
bless your Dad’s great big heart, that is full of love for Mom, you, Rocky  and Cali…he steps up and does what is needed for each of you to live your best lives.  He gets 4 hearts and  4 stars and many virtual hugs from auntie 😘
❤️❤️❤️❤️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I'll bring them snacks.

Breaking NEWS

The Cat Blogosphere has within recent days set up a BLOGGER NEWS UPDATES ticker-tape which runs continuously atop the main page.

It came about primarily as a way for all of us to provide up to the minute "news" of our many pet
friends who were being impacted by Hurricane Helene but may have lost their normal communication
channels (social media, blogs, etc.)  And now many of those same good friends are in the
path of equally dangerous Hurricane Milton.

We are encouraging all in our pet community to share news you may have of our friends who may not be able to post on regular media.  The ticker-tape is and will be updated frequently as information is received.

Words on Wednesday: Critique of lunch NOT at Seaboard

  

Thank you to our Hostess

Sandee at Comedy Plus   


 The views are of a parking lot. 

Top left of collage is the outside of Village Deli
bonus an Ace hardware is now opened next door win win. 
Top right is the outside dining area that has been enhanced with permanent brick wall and sliding windows.  It is fairly long too.
 Not surrounded by flowers and garden art like it was at Seaboard.
Inside dining room has a very cozy decor lots of art.
We used to visit the Ace Hardware near Seaboard Cafe so this is a plus



Bryan ordered BLT said is was perfect
I ordered a tuna and pasta cold plate both were as good as I remembered. FOR some reason, they served them in two to go containers.  I would have preferred a plate.  
The chairs are too low for the table. As you can see from the top right photo, the top of the chair is barely visible. The top of the table came to our chest. All chairs are that height.  
 We'll adjust and will return. 
Bryan summed it up best:  There are many good cafes all over Raleigh...but Seaboard was a Destination with excellent food and surroundings.

The area has many dining possibilities
Duck Donut on the left end, Butcher's Market and Chicken Salad Chick.

Happy Tuesday

Thank you to our

 We thank our Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus

The next two photos were played out in front on me while I was on my morning walk.

I am not fluent in K9-ese, but this was my interpretation,


FYI: These two dogs were breaking the sound barrier with their barking

 Now for the rest of the story.  I finally caught  up with Chewy and his Mom.
I told Chewy what a good boy he was not to bark like a mad dog at 7:30 am.
His Mom said, 'Oh trust me, he would love to bark.  I think he is a wee bit upset they started barking first.

Awww Monday with Cali, Kat and Rocky.

 

 We thank our Hostess Sandee at Comedy Plus


Mom is a huge college football fan. Her love for the sport is rooted in her relationship with her dad.  As an only child, Mom cherishes the memories of Saturdays watching games with “Daddy”.  Daddy passed away at age 52, and Mom continues to watch college football in his honor. 

This is how we watch football games.










Do you have a favorite college football team?

❤️ Kat, Rocky, & Cali

PS. Our thoughts & prayers are with everyone affected by Hurricane Helene. 😞

Dearest Precious Niece and Nephews....
Auntie HiC must confess she has a very favorite team the North Carolina State Wolfpack.....but I guess you could say as for watching she is much like Kat...she just doesn't sit down to watch. 

Love Auntie HiC

Easy Sunday Selfie
