Scavenger Hunt

Our friend Raenabelle from DezizWorld is celebrating her birthday with a scavenger hunt party. Make a note of your answer to the below question and attend her party at DezizWorld.com on June 5. You'll need to collect seven answers from seven different blogs. The links to these blogs can be found at DezizWorld. Leave your answers in the comment section of their party post on June 5. There's a prize for the winner and it will be a lot of fun.

Q: What cartoon cat was named after a skunk?

Just don't answer "Annie." Actually, I would answer "Pierrot" but skunks smell better.

Howdy!

Hello, friends! We are well and happy. We very much hope the same for you.

In the U. S., today is Memorial Day.

You don't need to comment. We're just happy you visited.

Cows

Hello! We’ve been enjoying this new crop of grass. We ask to go out on the balcony about a hundred times a day to graze. The lady says we’re cows. Lady, I don’t think there’s such a thing as an orange, striped cow or an all-white cow with truncated ears, but whatever.

In other news, I was back at the vet a couple weeks ago. My potassium and red blood cell count were high last time. They’re back to normal as well all my other senior blood test results. The lady is elated. We’re hoping I don’t need to return for at least a year. I still have problems with the bathroom, which is a result of my back, but a ladycat doesn’t discuss such things.

We look forward to Easter!
He is not here; He has risen, just as He said. Come and see the place where He lay. Matthew 28:6

Thankful Thursday

I'm thankful for sun puddles. What, lady? I've already been thankful for sun puddles in a Thankful Thursday post? I'm thankful that I'm lazy and nobody judges me.

I'm also thankful for Brian's Home, host of the Thankful Thursday blog hop.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

You don't want to press your luck!

Friday Update

Earlier this month, I had to be boarded. The lady sent Dawn, the lady that is in charge of the boarded kitties, emails checking on me. Dawn said to me, “Annie, your mom is asking about you. I’m going tell her how much you love to eat!” “Great,” I said to myself. “Now the lady is going to give me even less treats.” When the lady went to pick me up, Dawn reiterated how much I love to eat. Darn her! Really, she is the kindest, gentlest, loveliest person, but she’s too honest. On top of that, the lady insisted Dawn weigh me to compare my weight to when I arrived. I gained six ounces while there. Darn again!

We haven’t written an update on my back. For the last several months, I haven't taken any pain medication. I show no symptoms of being in pain. My back legs still give out but that isn’t painful. I also still have the litter box issues that are connected with my back, but we accept that. My not being in pain outshines everything else.

Annie

You are beautiful.
You chirp when I come into the room.
You purr a lot.
I miss you when I'm away.
I will always take care of you.
