Thankfuls from Cali, Kat and Rocky and Poetic Thursday #202

  Thankful Thursday hosted by 


Dearest Auntie HiC

Today we are THANKFUL FOR EACH OTHER AND THE TLC FROM

OUR Mom, Kit and Dad, David, 

below is the REST OF THE STORY

******************

We had “an incident” (as we’re calling it) a couple weeks ago.
It was during Kat’s pancreatitis flare- up.  We certainly didn’t need anymore excitement, but nonetheless…

As you know I’m an extremely mild-mannered little fellow, who rarely causes trouble.  ðŸ˜‡
I knew Kat was not feeling well, and I offered to give him a gentle bath.
Notice his intact ear…

As is often the case, licks gradually transformed into gentle nibbles, which progressed into bites, escalating into wrestling, and eventually culminating in a brawl! ðŸ™€
We usually break it up quickly, & go our separate ways. However, Cali was nearby & jumped in attempting to restore peace.
Mom had to get involved, but unfortunately, the wounds had already occurred.
Cali received a small scratch under her right eye & poor Kat’s right ear was “gently” pierced. Mom cared for the wounds, and everyone has healed.



When Kat arrived on the hill (2018) he already had a split left ear. 

So now, he’s sporting two notches!


We each had to spend some time in “time out” .  ðŸ™€
I, purrsonally, sustained no injuries, which proves either I can take care of myself when necessary, or I’m a bully! 😹



💓 Rocky

PS. Kat wants to assure Katie Isabella he’s a lover, not a fighter! 😻



Dearest Nephew Rocky/Bully(winkle)

Whew OMCs OMCs...too much of a good thing can cause overstimulation.  Angel Madi was easily overstimulated and Auntie HiC would get a lickin' and I kept on tickin'. MOL MOL Auntie Cracks herself up sometimes.!!!  Tell KAT his ears are still gawgeous! I hear girls think scars are a sign of bravery!! MOL Cali very thankful your eye is ok and that your Mom had to use her Kindergarten Teacher tactics 'time out'!! I bet she suggested everyone shake paws instead of kiss and make up since that was the cause of the brawl.  

    Most thankful peace and tranquility have been restored

Lovingly Auntie HiC

Office Parties...
They are rarely fun
We all have attended them!!
All the snacks served by the tons
do not make up for party hats
or strained chit chat.
If you don't attend, you will
surely some grief.
All will tell you of the fun and gaiety they had 
and mischief played on the Chief.

  2. You are still handsome, Kat. Scars give a mancat character. That party looks like a laugh a minute, not!

  4. Cali now has her very own Beauty mark. Some people pay a lot of money to get a black mold put on her face. She now has a built in mark. And Rocky, I Precious would never think that you are a bully. It just seems that that bath went a little sideways.

  5. oh my! I had no idea the three of you could/would have a cat fight. I have always had dogs, and I do know that when we had 2 there was no fight but when we had 3 dog fights happened. glad you are all ok and your ears are ok, and no real harm was done.

  6. Fights happen sometimes and battle scars are inevitable.

  7. I am thinking it was a little dustup and they happen. Lot of kitty energy going on with three of you. We had three kitties at one time and there seemed to be a few dustups but they all would settle down. Good your Mom stepped in and made it all better. I had no idea Kat had a small split in his ear. I like Auntie HiC's thinking... thankful peace and tranquility have been restored!
    I have never had to attend or be at an office party and for that I am thankful :)
    Good Morning!

  8. Ouch. So sorry your ears are hurt Kat. Those people look bored at that party.

  9. Sorry to hear you all had a bit of a squabble, but we're glad to hear everyone is doing okay. Now you have matching notched ears Kat. We're keeping our paws crossed that you never fight like that again. We love the poem and feel the same way about office parties.

  11. Whew...we are glad none of the kitties were hurt bad. Sunny and I still get into scuffles too, but they are usually all talk and no blood.
    xoxo,
    Rosy & Sunny
    PeeEss...Great poem, C....and so very true!!

  12. I love it! You captured it perfectly......you kind of plaster a smile on your face and try to fade into the background so you can escape asap. BUT you have to make sure the boss sees that you're there first - or else you'll hear about it the next day! LOL

    Hugs, Pam

  13. Thank goodness no one was seriously injured and now you have matching notches, Kat. I am so happy that office parties are a thing of my past☺

  15. KAT! Never do I doubt you! You are the single most gentlemanly mancat I have ever had the fortune to know and date. Those two ears match beautifully and they show what a brave boy you are! Rocky, I know for a fact that you meant well. Sometimes, grooming just gets away with us and take us into another realm...where we wind up rassling. However, one must not nip or lay a bitey on one's brofur. Ya know? I am certain that was all an accident. Um, Cali...haver you examined your conscience lately? Oh. you have? Anyway, you are still pretty, yes. Rocky, Wait till Kat is all better before you offer to groom. Bell's ringing...class dismissed.

  16. Kat, did Kit or Cali put a hole in your ear, it wasn't real clear to us. You 3 need to chill! Chia gets put in her kennel (or sometimes just goes in it herself cause she knows) when she causes trouble with Lucy. XOX Xena

  17. My goodness, y'all need to be good and chill out instead of rumbling. Hey Kat, Two Notch sounds like a cool nickname though. Thanks for joining Angel Brian's Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!

  18. Poor Kat. Great job on the poem. XO

  19. Small "wrasslin' matches" can sometimes get out of control, but I'm sure you won't let it happen again.

    I like the poem!
