Catnip Pizza

Have you ever had a catnip pizza?  This picture is of me and my brother, Simba, about three years ago.  We were still living in California, and we got a catnip pizza for Christmas.

A catnip pizza has lots catnip on it with crunchy treats and dried fish flakes on top.  It comes in a big pizza box.  Yum!

Added note from Lucy's mama again: I'll post another update on Bucky again soon. He has to go back to the vet tomorrow to be retested for a few things.  His blood work results came back yesterday, and there are quite a few concerns.  Hopefully, the second test will tell a better story. I'll let you all know soon!

Intruder Update

Lucy’s mama, Vicki, here…

I wanted to give you an update on the new kitty Lucy posted about yesterday. Let’s face it, Lucy doesn’t give a flying fig about him, so I thought I would do the post today.

His official new name is Bucky. My husband, James, named him this due to several factors: He was found in Buckingham, PA at an abandoned train depot, Buckingham Valley Train, right next to Buckingham Lumber Yard in Bucks County. I apologize if Lucy gave the impression that his name was Money Pit. She was being sarcastic because she overheard me grumbling to James how much money the little guy cost us at the vet.

Tuesday morning he peed all over his bed, towel and the floor. It was almost like a gigantic water puddle but it definitely had that ammonia smell to it. When James bought his bed, he didn’t check the washing instructions. Unfortunately, it’s hand wash only. I therefore washed his bed and the floor. (James washed the bed again. It's not easy getting that urine smell out.) I can’t figure it out because he used his litter box on Sunday. I’m writing this Tuesday evening and he hasn’t pooped (sorry for the bluntness) at all. Also, he drinks water like crazy. To sum it up, since he came here Sunday early evening, he’s gone to the bathroom three times (number one only). The vet is supposed to call tomorrow with the results of his full-panel blood test, and I’ll mention it to her.

The good news is that his nose didn’t run at all today. It’s still a little wet and crusty, but Sunday and Monday, he was sneezing and had mucus hanging out of his nose.

I wanted to thank you all for your nice comments on both my and James’ blog. We both appreciate the kindness and support a lot. It’s amazing the sweet friends we’ve made in the blogging world.

I’m still unhappy because he has to be in our windowless, tiny laundry room for at least a few weeks. I feel so bad. We visit him from time to time throughout the day, but I just feel like he must be lonely and bored in there.

Thanks for listening!

Intruder Alert

Something new is happening at our house.  Sunday, Daddy was in a rural field looking for things to take pictures of.  He found something unexpected.  He took a wrong turn and found an abandoned orange kitty next to an abandoned train.

You can't tell in the picture, but one of his ears are torn and he has a very runny nose. Also, his lip hangs on one side. This is because he's missing a tooth.  The beans took him to the vet this morning.  He got an exam, full blood work, flea treatment, deworming treatment, claw clipping and an antibiotic shot.  I overheard the beans say we should name him Money Pit.

The vet thinks he's 7 to 10 years old based on his teeth.  Also, he's neutered.

He has to be seperated from Simba and me for at least two weeks because he could get us sick with his respiratory infection.  Since we live in an apartment, this means he has to live in the laundry room.  Mama worries that he won't be happy in there.  He did get a new bed and toy though.

 

Mama says he's very sweet.  He doesn't really meow much unless he's lonely.  Then he cries loudly.  Mama doesn't know if there's much hope in placing him in a good home, and Daddy is already attached to him.  Mama is worried about introducing us to him.  She's afraid the fur is going to fly.

I can't believe I'm going to have to live with two boy cats!

Ramblings

Hi,

This was a good weekend.  I had lots of good naps and sweet dreams. A few other items that were on my agenda are below.

I hung out and surveyed my domain.  (Notice how I have destroyed the beans' couch. They put a sheet on it, but that doesn't stop me.)

I kept the orange cat in line.

I also had some fun.

...who's the fairest kitty and ratsy of them all?

Ratsy and I are joining daddy's meme, Weekend Reflections.

Laundry Day

I love when my mama washes the sheets.  After the sheets are washed and dried, she throws them in a heap on the bed.  I love to sleep in an unmade bed.

As mama gets ready to make the bed, I like to first show her that it's my bed.

Then, I play. I loves to play in an unmade bed!

Lastly, I hide. Do you know where I am?
