Grandpawrents

I got to meet my Grandpawrents last week.  I don't recall having these in my life before I came here.  It was purrty wonderful!  They brought me a big airy bed to sleep on atnight, but even better than that was the fact that they were in it at night with me!  AND, even better than that was the fact that the stinky mancats stayed mostly with my Meowm so I had my Grandpawrents to myself!  I laid on my Grandpaw at night and I even crawled up on my Grandmeowms chest one afternoon for some snuggles and scritches!

The badd part is that they have left!  They deflated my airy bed, but I didn't get off of it!  They rolled up my airy bed, but I didn't get off of it!  Finally my Meowm had to come over and give my royal tushy a push to get me to move.  I was not pleased!  I would have gone to their home with them, except I heard my Meowm say they already have 3 cats!  I can not tell you how disappointed I was with this revelation.  Meowm says I will have to get used to the mancats here since I am staying here till I die.  Well, I will stay here till I die, but nothing is forcing me to get used to these mancats!  Only I will decide if I like them or not!  As a matter of fact, I will make that a royal decree! 

"I, Her Royal Highness Emily, will be the only animal, vegetable or mineral to decide if I like the mancats here or not." 

Now where is my royal paw stamp so I can sign this?  **paws thru a pile of stuff over here**  **paws thru a pile of stuff over there**  Oh, there is that crinkly ball!  **paws thru one more pile of stuff**  Damn!  It is not to be found!  Well, it is still a legitimate royal decree, you are all my witnesses!!!

Oh, by the way, I do miss my Grandpawrents.  I am not brave enough yet to get on the big bed with Meowm because the mancats are there ALL THE TIME with her.  What does a royal have to do around here to get some alone time with her Meowm?

I still have all my teeths in this picture.  Meowm hasn't taken any new ones of me yet.  I am doing well and Meowm says I need to go back for a check up within the next few days.  Right now Grandmeowm and Grandpaw are visiting, so we are being busy getting extra pets from them.  Even Emily has come out of her shell quite a bit. 

Anywhoozles......just wanted to let you know all is going okay so far.  Thank you for all your purrs and helpful suggestions for Meowm and me.

Purrs for Sammy

UPDATE 2:  Sammy ended up having 13 teeth pulled.  Time will tell if he needs more pulled or not.  H was given shots of antibiotic, anti-inflammatory and pain medicine so I don't have to try to get any down him.  He has been home for just over 3 hours and just ate a little bit of wet food.   He is still feeling the affects of anesthesia.  He will go back in about 10 days to double check how his mouth is doing.  If I think he needs more pain meds the vet will get some for me to give to him.


UPDATE:  Sammys FIV+ status has caused stomatits to develop.  He had no major issues with his dental in February, but now it is bad enough that he will have teeth pulled and will be getting a steroid shot to help with the inflammation in the back of his mouth.  In a few weeks he may get another steroid shot, dependingon how his mouth is doing.

Thank you for the purrs and prayers.

Meowm here:

I don't remember exactly when it was, but Sammy started having trouble when he yawned.  I know he was having trouble before his dental in February.

Anyway, sometimes when he yawns he will let out a little scream and run away from where ever he is.  So something is hurting him when he yawns and he thinks it is in that place, hence his running.  And he stays spooked for a bit once he gets away.  The vet didn't notice anything unusual when she did his dental in February, so I let it go and watched him.  It kept happening when he would yawn, although not every time he yawned.  Then last night it happened while he was eating some wet food.

I can't let this go on anymore not knowing what is wrong.  So he went to the vet last night, and she will need to put him under anesthesia to get good x-rays of his mouth and jaws.  He wouldn't even open his mouth for her last night, and he tried to bite several times.  She wanted me to bring him back Friday, when she was in again, but I didn't want to try to put him in the carrier again so soon, because he hates it, so I left him there last night and he is getting looked at today.

Oh, he has also lost 11 ounces since his dental in February.

Needless to say I am concerned and stressed, hence the requests on the Blogosphere for purrs and prayers.

Thank you all for your support.

Sun Worshiper

This is my sexy sun worshiping pose!   Do you like it?

I have been surprising my lady with the things that I can do.  I have been opening the closet for her, even though she thinks I do it for me.

I opened the screen door on the big sliding door, I did that for me!  I wanted out there so badly.  It didn't last long.  My lady came and swooped me up and brought me back in.

Then I dashed out the front door!   I could tell she was panicked at that one.....but I made her work to get me back inside.  

My lady brought some stuff home tonite and fiddled with it at the screen door, but she didn't attach anything.  All I heard was mumbling and then "that won't work", and "that won't work either".   I guess she is looking fro something to lock that screen with so I can have window whiffies, but not get out.  I heard her say she is afraid I, or the boys, would jump, even from the third floor.  I hope she finds something that works soon!

I think you can click on my picture above and biggify it.  And when you do taht you can see my patch of black furs on my under carriage.  It is the only patch of black on my under carriage.  The lady thinks it is very cute.

I miss mine brofur.

Sammy and I still have our heads, and we aren't in the stockade or dungeon, but neither have we been knighted.  If Sammy doesn't quit staring at our sisfur, he may end up with a nice scar though.

Meowm has started the process of moving Miss Emilys litterbox and food dishes out of the bedroom.  She thinks that might help with the hissiness.  Sammy loves the bedroom, and Emily has to go in there to use her things.  She will be in the bedroom, and Sammy will sit outside the door and watch her.  She doesn't want to go past him, and she doesn't want him going past her.  Never mind that there is a second door that either one of them could use.  Sillies!  So after having read Cat Daddy, Meowm will be moving things slowly, with the hopes of having them in their permanent places by the time our Grandpawrents come visit in May.

Wish us luck!!!
