YAY for 'NAE again!

So, dispite having a pretty relaxing weekend, there was concern for Monday's vet appointment. When we went on Friday for Nae's (now monthly) vitamin B shot, she weighed in a pound less than in May. Very concerned by this we booked an appointment for Monday and went to get tests started again to see why she had lost weight. No one at home had noticed any changes in her so we were even more concerned by that. Weighing only 7.5 pounds to start, you think we would have noticed such a large amount of 'Nae missing. Anyway, we showed up at the vet and dropped 'Nae off to begin her day of medical testing and blood draws. I was not even back in the driveway yet when I get a call from the vet tech. "Good news! Come get her!" What? I was confused. 'Nae was weighed on all 3 scales and 7.5 pounds was the verdict each time. I asked how it was possible that she gained back her unnoticable lost pound in only 3 days. It seems 'Nae had her foot off the back side of the scale boosting herself up a bit and being weighed only once on Friday - it went unnoticed by me or the tech. On the way back to get 'Nae I stopped and got a fruit tray to celebrate that I was picking up a healthy baby girl & to say thank you for their concern about her (not to mention I saved $200+ on lab tests that weren't needed). I love our vet staff! We are so blessed to have them.

Lighter than 'Nae today - the mommy!

Sunny with a chance of naps!

It's been so beautiful in MN! It's about 65-70* and sunny. Mommy bought a new orthopedic foam fuzzy liner mat for in the carrier for 'Nae for when she has to go to the vet so we've been laying on it in the sunny spot. We've got to make sure it smells like home and is up to our high standards of comfyness!!! It's wonderful! Now - we just have to get one for when we go outside and lay around in the yard. Grass is comfy, but this mat is way soft! YAWN ~ headed back to the spot by the window and waiting for the sun to come up and warm our fuzzy mat.

We've been gone forever!!!

OMCeiling Cat! We just realized how long we've been gone from bloggin'. Life has been busy and everyday is a new adventure! We've been exploring and inspiring and doing all the things kitties do every day! We're back and hopefully better bloggers! We're great - how are all of you and your families?

Our Christmas Carol to you.

(in the tune of Hark the Harrold Angels Sing)

hark the hairy kitteh sings - glory to the burger king.

Merry Christmas!
C.C. & 'Nae!

a new reason for a chase!

Lately grandma has been working very hard at knitting socks for Christmas. We've been chasing yarn balls all over still. The last couple days has been filled with Tag- you're it by C.C. and 'Nae. Today C.C. and mommy played tag acuz C.C. got a rice crispy stuck up her nose. She was licking mommy's bowl and somehow 1/2 a crispy got lodged in her nostral. She wouldn't let mommy get it out of there and was sneezing but it wouldn't budge. Grandpa caught me and mommy picked my nose. Oddly - no one thinks I have learned a lesson from this. The funny thing is that when we were born, Mommy wanted 3 kitties to name Snap, Crackle, and Pop. When C.C. came out we needed a 4th name and Count Chocula was the winner. As we grew personallities, I was the only one that got to keep a cereal name.

HI to the other kitties!!!

Hi everybody!!! We've been busy. Mommy broke out the good kitty crack and C.C. found a ball of grandma's yarn. It's not a ball anymore. =:: giggles::= While we were napping from all the fun, mommy rolled it back up for us to do it again! Again and again. All 4 of us run after it and it's in no less than 3 rooms of the house. We're good like that! So, that's what we've been up to. That and sleeping on the chair with the the winter coats in it. Yep, it's a good life. Hope you're all happy and healthy and well fed too!!!

Another great weigh in for 'Nae!

We went for our monthly check up and 'Nae is 6.9 pounds!!! That's a whole nother 'Nae from when we started. WOW!!! She's doing well! Speaking of doing well, C.C.'s kitty diaper rash is all cleared up! We're still using diaper wipes on her to maintain a clean tushy but everything looks to be on the up and up @ our house. Izzy got to go out and have an "Indian Summer" day in the leaves with grandma and all is peachy keen!
Hope all is well with the other kitties in the blogworld!

C.C. & 'Nae!!
