Award, Lucy's Thoughts & Bucky

I want to thank Iris at Boo-Bah’s Little Sunshines for this nice award (This Blog is a Dream). She has such a sweet blog of her cute doggies and kitties and her pretty home. I’m supposed to give it to 10 people, but I would like to make it available to all of you because I think you all deserve it! I also want to give a shout-out to my bud Peanut over at Boo-Bah’s. We both love our foodies and are therefore well-rounded kitties.

Bucky has been released from the laundry room. I’m going to let Mama gab about him, but I just want to say a few things. When he was first released, one of the first things he did was go in MY bed on MY blankie and curled up. Well, Mama took care of that before I could slap some fur off of him. He knows to keep his space from me, but I let him sleep on my beans’ bed last night for a short time. Also, I’m enjoying eating all his yummy canned food.



I’m done. Here’s my mama…


Hi. Bucky’s integration into our home has gone amazingly well. I think it’s because he’s been here for two weeks, and Lucy and Simba knew there was a kitty here and had even seen him on a few occasions. There are a few hisses from Lucy and Simba, but that’s about it. His absolute favorite spot is on our heating pad on the couch.


James and I are giving him his fluids daily, and for the most part, that has gone really well. James noticed that he’s missing a few teeth, not just one. That definitely doesn’t inhibit his ability to eat like hog though. He’ll go back to the vet in a few weeks to have his kidney values rechecked. He otherwise seems to feel pretty good. He lounges and sleeps a lot, but who doesn’t in this house (kitties, that is)?


I hope you all, kitties, doggies and humans, have a wonderful weekend!

    Hi Lucy,
    Congratulations on your award.
    It's nice to see that you and Simba are sorta getting along with Bucky; I know from watching my 'sisters' that soon you'll be good buddies.
    Have a nice weekend.
    Luv, Lucy (Woof!)
    P.S. My Mom said that Bucky is looking good and he's very handsome :)

    How nice of you to "let" Bucky try out your blankie for a bit...and to let Bucky sleep with your beans. I knew you had it in you to be gracious and welcome your new brother to the family! My mom is very happy all is going well for Bucky too. Handsome fella for sure.

    I just realized you too are in PA. Maybe we need to set up a sick kitty network? LOL seriously though, glad things are starting to improve and I hope that continues. Thanks for the visit over my way and I hope you enjoy your weekend!

    Glogirly says she's really happy to hear that Bucky is doing well and is out of the laundry closet.

    Lucy, you better keep an eye on your bed. Even if the fur must fly, you've got rights!!!

    Keep the faith,
    Katie

    Lucky Bucky! Glad to hear he is improving though still a lot of effort being put into his health. Lovely to see him sleeping so comfortably. I bet no one appreciates it as much as he does!
