Flower Friday
Today Friday the 13th and we are celebrating it on
We had lots of fog earlier this week. It always reminds mom of this poem.
Fog
The fog comes
on little cat feet.
It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.

Below you will find an assortment of technicolor as seen
at Logan's Trading Post last weekend.
These paintings was in Seaboard Cafe
TOGM likes hot air balloons from the ground
Mums everywhere in every color
Pansies are the happiest flowers!!
Always smiling
Pumpkins in every color
and gourds galore

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday
Angel Sammy and brudder Teddy
Is you a rabbit: a true story
When my sis was a wee girl of about two
there was a ritual all must keep.
After her teeth were brush and feets
were in her jammies way down deep,
She would run to her bed
Prop her head on her pillow
Prop her head on her pillow
I'm ready she said.
I've selected a special book that must be read.
Neither rain nor wind would ruin reading time.
As mom read sis's eyes got heavy, the sandman
was close. For a few extra minutes, mom sat trying to be still.
Mom felt a sneeze about escape against her will
Oh no she thought this surely wake sleepyhead.
Mom *wiggled her nose trying to ward off the explosion.
Sis was a tease often playing 'possum with mom.
She gently touched mom on the arm and said
Mommy is you a *rabbit?
Laughter erupted throughout the room.
UPDATES on Pilling and eating and such
I WON BIG TIME.
Monday night MOM mad a special trip to the grocery story to buy a package of lean hamburglar (that is what my sis called hamburger when she was a wee girl). She divided it into 4 parts and froze it individually. She browned a portion, drained it and cooled it. About the time my nose got a whiff of the meat cooking, Mom bellowed Madi come quickly .I ran so fast my whiskers were blowing.
It was my very first tasted of hamburglar in my life and I love it.
I get it as a treat one time a day. Mom thinks it might stimulate my appetite.
Pilling is no easier. Yesterday Mom literally took matters into her own paws.
First she hid my pepcid in some Purina soft chicken treats. I ate them w/o even noticing
Then she put my my daily dose of cerenia pill (1/2 tablet) in the soft treats. All we can say is that must be one smelly pill 'cause one sniff of them and I tucked my tail and ran like the wind.
I heard Dad says well what are you gonna do? Mom say, I will get the pill in her one way or the other. I just haven't decided how. She went into her bag of tricks, pulled out a tube of
LaxaNip(for hairballs) which I love. She buried the pill in big glob in a teaspoon .I heard her coming too late. She had a most determined look on her face. She picked me up, sat me on the vanity in the master bath, shut the door (that is never a good sign). She got my mouth open and in one swift move she got the glob of LaxNip off the spoon with her finger and on the back of my tongue before I could
say Meow!
Moral to this story is when a Mom is on a mission nothing will stop her.
Ruby and Summer mom has joined the ranks of the moms who poke their fingers down our throats.
She says to thank you moms for being the trendsetters!

Tuesday Tales
Now that the sun has moved in the sky this chair is my favorite spot most afternoons
On October 2nd mom was present along with the flashy beast to snap this series of shots.

Monday's Vet visit update
Kidney levels are up a tad but not horrid. It has been a gradual increase since January but never a lot. Dr. S says values matter but he treats the patient not the values and how the patient acts and looks. I got another cerenia injection, a convenia(antibiotic) and blood work. I will continue my daily SubQs. Dr. S checked with our local compounding pharmacy about the cerenia. It is $250.00 for a month's supply. It is compounded with almond oil for adding to feline food. Unfortunately they do not compounded for rubbing on ears. If you cat has a sensitive sniffer and tucks tail and runs, due to the smell and taste of almond, you are up the creek with a boat load of almond oil. They tried other flavors but the cerenia clumped in those. Supposedly cat's like the flavor... LOL That pharmacy has not meet Madi's discriminating palette.
Brian and crew thanks for the suggestion though!
