Wordless Wednesday

Monday Morning

Well, it's the start of another work week (for Mama, not me).  I had a good weekend.  I helped with making the bed, got a little tuna (Mama was using it to bribe Simba to take his medicine), got lots of pets, soaked up the sun on my patio, played with my dragonfly and took lots of naps. 

Simba has been having lots of trouble with the antibiotics he's been taking for his infection.  The first batch made him have yucky poopies.  The second batch made him have yucky poopies and not want to eat.  Now, he will probably have to go the vet for an injection that may or may not work.  All these antibiotics are costing hundreds of dollars.

I am perkier than I was.  Mama is still working on my diet (darn it anyway). 

I hope you all had a wonderful weekend too!  Did you do anything fun?

Sun Patches

No matter how small or big a sun patch is, you can always count on me to find it.

Oh, yeah, this is the life.

Happy weekend, friends! I hope you get lots of sunbeams where you are!

Stuff

Hi friends.  I haven't posted since last week because I haven't been up to much at all.  What you see above is the extent of what I've been doing lately. 

Remember when I posted that Simba and I went to the vet and they ran blood tests on us?  That was a few weeks ago.  Well, my tests came back perfect, but Simba's came back with elevated kidney numbers.  He also has a urine infection.  Mama is pretty unhappy about this.  Of course, she's worried about Simba, but also it brings back sad memories of Bucky.  Interestingly, however, is that Simba seems to feel fine.  I, on the other hand, have been lethargic.  Mama is afraid I'm gaining weight.  Simba has to be on a prescription kidney diet and I've been eating lots of it.  She said she's putting her foot down and is going to do what she can to make sure I eat way more canned than dry and limit the amount of the kidney diet I steal from Simba.

Simba has to have an antibiotic every day and fluids every other day.  He is not cooperative like Bucky was.

Well, that's what's been going on around here.  Plus, Mama has been working more than usual.

My Dragonfly

I got a dragonfly toy a few months ago, and it's still my favorite toy.  I play with it (with a little help from Mama) every night.

Times have changed. I used to run up and down stairs chasing the cap off the milk jug. I would run all over chasing other toys.  I loved to jump on the bed frame, balancing on it and walking back and forth showing off.  I chased the other two male cats that used to live with us.  Now, I just lie on my side and bat at the toy (usually purring the whole time).  I never jump up on anything but the bed.  I'm an older gal. I turn 14 some time this year (I'll celebrate my 14th Gotcha later this year).

 I still have fun playing with my toy, sitting out on my patio in the sun and getting lots of pets from Mama.  Life is good; it's just not as energetic.

Have a happy weekend, friends!

Watching Wednesday

I always feel like someone's watching me..

Sweet Dreams

I've always liked to go to bed kind of late, between 11:00 and 12:00.  Lately, I've been surprising Mama by being ready for bed even before she is.  Here I am all curled up and ready for sleep.  She's still reading and hasn't turned out the light yet.  Do you have a certain time you like to go to bed or certain things you do to get ready for sleep at night?
