Mama, you can hold my paw today but not like YESTERDAY! Well, if you have ever had your back and front paws held while a doc sticks a needle in your…who knows where…to get a urine sample for a culture, then you know what my day was like yesterday. But I have to get a little culture somewhere, haha….just kidding. I’m back on my med...

Our long time friend, Jane Louise Curry, who writes books for young adults, sent us this photo yesterday of her Christmas doll house tableau/creche (?) from the 1930s that she has set up every year for the holidays wherever she is living. Mama was charmed by the tea cart and the tree and so many other parts, and all of us thought that it’s wonderful...

(View his soldiers online, if you wish.) Well, these holidays are bringing memories of other, calmer times. So our spark today is to remember loved ones who are not here, one of whom is mama’s brother who from the age of 14 began making lead soldiers and tableaux of things like Hannibal Crossing The Alps and so much more, and each Christmas mama puts...

Well, for the holidays, we decided to post my selfie with fairy lights! Or glitter, or whatever that stuff is. I’m with Dolly Parten on this one: sequins is good taste. Or any kind of sparkling thingy during these holidays. Hope your Sunday is a sun-day indeed. It’s a bit grey around here but we are almost at the beginning of longer days. YAY...

Dream FX from Lunapic, but mama has no idea what FX stands for. We just like the colors! But I love, especially, the delineation of my hairs on my little bod and the sparkling jelly bean paws. The whole shebang just gave us a tickle, and right about now in December, we’ll take all the tickles we can get, haha....

I have my Christmas eyes on…maybe one should be red! Maybe more nip… 1. A Christmas pet peeve I have is ___well, I don’t really have many except the overkill commercially, WAY out of hand each year and so much hype that Christmas disappears into it…hey, maybe this meant a “pet” peeve! Don’t have any of those except...

You don’t have to comment on this repeat. Just wanted to have all see Ms Adamus’s talents! Well, let’s just start with thanks to our talented card-creator, Ann Adamus, for our Paws For Peace Christmas card. And thanks to all of you who are so thoughtful about my condition and its progress, which is very good as of yesterday when the nice...

Well, it was, too. In the garden and pretty dusky. I had no words to describe it, haha. (PS Mama tarted me up a bit, but you can hardly FIND me now!) Confession: we couldn’t find my nighttime pics, haha so mama “improvised”…whatever that means. But it was silent, at...

(Ann Adamus has done it again – the perfect card for these restless times. Merci, Ann, as always for your taste and talent.) Well, mama is making soup to ward off this weather and she says that everything but the kitchen sink is going into it…I think for example, a soupçon of Yuku zest! Hmm…wonder if that sink will FIT in her pot? Not...

Mama, I need a ladder. I can’t reach those lemons to help your racolte (picking)! Donc, about this “if life gives you lemons” thingy. Almost all the quotes about lemons have to do with lemons being a burden or a bad hand in a card game, and almost all of them say, “Make lemonade”, which, of course, is a good response if you...

Well, it’s sweet because I was bathing mama’s finger, which, to me, had been somewhere really nice as she was making chocolate truffles for holiday gifts. Hey, I know my fingers when they need licking! And mama, I’m happy to clean you up anytime, anywhere after truffle-making. What amazed mama was that she had washed her hands before she...

Have yourself a merry little Christmas…la la la Well, just getting in the mood here, dear readers. And mama used Lunapic’s wonderful site where one can choose so many images. We used snowfall animation on this one. Merci, Ms Weatherwoman, that we do NOT have snow. It has only happened here once in 15 years and we would rather just tough out the...

An earlier Christmas photo with g-kids fawning over me… MAMA SPEAKING: 1. Some of my favorite Christmas songs are ___Oh, Come, Oh, Come, Emmanuel__ and __Good King Wincesles. 2. I like to watch __choruses of carol singers on TV or soon-to-be live in our little village_ every year at Christmastime. 3. I would call this the most __melancholy but...

Today we thank our sweet village for decorating itself with small green trees everywhere, every 20 feet approximately, and for brightened our sometimes deflated spirits (after reading the news, haha). And we thank our lovely vet, who examined my tummy yesterday with something called ultrasound and found that I had a urinary infection, for the first time in...

Well, I am still getting over my little tummy trauma today…not serious as it turned out but I was having a bit of trouble and meowing and meowing and mama and papa didn’t know what I was saying and mama even turned on her Meow Talk (which, believe me, does not work 100 % but sometimes it is accurate) and that didn’t help me at all. I even...

Holy tamale!!! Is this huge creature coming after me? Well, I was minding my own business in the garden today and I was about to turn into scaredy cat when I saw these HUGE shadows creeping up on me but after confronting the creature, I found that it was only MAMA, taking a picture and GETTING IN THE WAY, as usual and so I shouldn’t have been scared...

Well, today (tomorrow’s blog, I jumped the gun) I have selfies (sort of, at a distance) of two of our village feral kitties, one of whom I believe is related to me, the one you see with a bit of white front/tummy showing. And little white paws! Definitely from my family… And here, too, is the little Anne Tree, as it is named now, which was...

Well, this is Loonypic’s Collage, but mama laughed at it because she love the yellow balloon coming out of my little body in the second pic and wishes she knew how to put in text! She says it would say, “Mama, my tummy has the blues!” Okay, okay, not hilarious, but still…my white tummy was pretty shocked at its change! Who wants to...
