Mancat + Miles Monday

Pierro
Hello there kittie friends.
I hope all of you are well and happy and that your week-end was bonkperfect.

It is boiling hot outside and the beans make the house cold
I like to lay in the sun.

feels good

ahhhh relaxing


Miles
Hi kitties. I have been very busy

this house is full of wonderment
a circus of intriguing and sometimes horrifying things

Sometimes it is just good to be calm and ruminative
don't tell anycat, but moms walking shoes scare the heck out of me!

when you are on the road to success;
it's uphill all the way"

Frooootbat Friday

Pierro:
Happy Friday kitties. I hope you are happy and well

Here at my house everything is going just great.
Blizzie has been sitting in this chair and I like to sit on it too

look at me, I have no legs!

bonkbonk stretching my ears feels really good!

Miles:
I have been a good boy.... really I have!

well sometimes I steal Blizzie's socks.
She gets mad because she cannot catch me yet.
She still walks with the sticks
I also dig in the plants and ... the sugar bowl - oops.
Okay that is all I have to say about that.

Now I need to take a tiny nap.
Pierro and I are going to play later
I hope you have a bonkbronk day

Pierro:

Two cool things!
•Tomorrow is Caesar and Princess' Gotcha Day way back in 1991!

Happy Gotcha Day at the bridge to the two wonderful kitties that came before

They lived a long happy life and got really rickety, olde, sweet and cute.

•Sunday, Miles is 5 months old!
yes yes, I am being gentle with him
I let him win sometimes


Dreams are free,
so free your dreams.

Mancat Monday

Pierro:
Sorry no movie Monday today. this was a busy week-end.
I am sleeping on the dryer today. Do you like that fancy Q I did with my tail?
The laundry room is a great mancat place to get away. It has a nice window too.
bonkers!



Miles:

Well, I am not a mancat yet, Pierro says I am a canmat in braining.

Blizzie got her pink leg cast off and now she is taking physical therapy.
She is still walking with her big silver sticks though.
I really have to watch out for those sticks
I can sleep here on the bloo chair and my daddy comes to me and shakes my legs
bronkbronkies

I hope you had a very happy week-end.
Write it on your heart
that every day
is the best day in the year.

Friday Frootbats - in the laundry room!

Pierro:
first I was enjoying some peace and quiet on top of the dryer, looking out at the gardens... checking on the birdie bath, and the growth of the sunny flowers
Then, my little shadow, Miles showed up...
click to biggify this one...

Miles! please restrain your tail!

Miles: I like being here with you. You are soooo smart, calm and cool, and big.

Moovie Monday

Pierro:
I hope you can see this movie
Miles and I are playing a lot now.
We are good friends and partners in jollification!
I was sleeping in my fluffy cave of blankies in my favorite sunny window
Miles showed up but he did not know it was me under these blankies
I am pretty sure he thought I was a ghost


Miles:
yeah, I was very scared at first.
Me and Pierro are good buddies. We do not cuddle together yet but we do like to play a lot
and mom makes us eat our foods during the day together.

bronkbronks for a happy Monday!!

Learn to... be what you are,
and learn to resign with a good grace
all that you are not.

Frootbat Friday


Pierro
Happy Frootbat Friday
mom makes lots of videos but they are too long so she can't put them on my blog .... she is now working on making many short videos -- stay tuned. Video moments seem to happen when the camera is at the other end of the house. Suffice to say, Miles is hilariously entertaining and frequently doing things I have never seen before, some of which I thought were impossible. - like rolling down the hall in my play cubes, tipping them on end, and running out of one tunnel - and then doing everything again.


I hope your week-end is bonkie sunny and ....

Miles: BRONKIE FRIDAY!!!!!!!
Are you wondering why we are sitting up here when there is blowing cold air
coming out of this vent??? becaaause we can!

Pierro: mom is not very techno-savvy but she noticed that one could choose a hipster new snazzy "design" for your blog page. I hope you like this one. Let me know if something is too tiny or annoying, missing, or absolutely intolerable and I will ask her politely to amend it forthright.


Attitudes are contagious.
Is yours worth catching?

Silly kitten Wednesday

Pierro:
Miles is a silly kitten
here is a funny movie
I hope you like it.
I am having a lot of fun with my baby brother
He likes playing with all of my toys


Miles:
guess what? mom still puts me in my room and forces me to take a nap.
I don't need to rest!
Bronks and purrrrs for a happy Wednesday


Pierro:
I have to watch Miles every minute. He really gets into things
and he makes some very bad decisions.
I never knew kittens were so tiring...

Mancat Monday~Pierro/Miles likes Monday

Pierro:
Lookie, Miles likes corn

Miles:
I like corn. It is very yummy
I like to eat it on the floor the best

yumyum yum bronk yum

Pierro:
Miles also likes my window bed.

I am a mancat, and if he wants to rest there that is okay.
He does not know about my secret hiding place
up high in mommy's closet

These days man knows the price of everything,
but the value of nothing.

Mancat Memorial Day Monday

Pierro:
Happy Mancat Monday kitties!
look! I got salmon last night! people salmon, yum yum yummm

I hope you have had a lovely week-end.
My medicine has not arrived yet. It will not be here until Thursday!!
Because of the holiday, they have to mail it on Tuesday... I believe it is coming by donkey from Mew Jersee.
At first mom had a melt down about that. Then she just got over it.
The vetman Dr Hish called and said he was going to give me a two week... 2 weeeeek
supply of the metronidazol, which tastes terrible by the way. I think it tastes like gasoline.
DrHish said it would make my tummy feel better (riiight) and keep it from getting angry.

here is the good news.
Miles and I have been bonking noses and tapping paws and sniffing and walking around in the hall way, and galloping around the house, and jumping and playing like two happy tigers!. Miles is a kitten and he really needs some mancatly guidance. That will come with time. I am very gentle with him. We like each other very much and have had a lot of fun playtimes!

We are best pals. When mom or dad goes upstairs to his room, I go too!
When they close the door I push on the door and meow in a gentle manner... beg!
then we get to play a little together. MissieCurlieSwirlie Teri said that as long as we don't share litterboxes or groom each other we should be okay.
Mom is keeping my paws really clean and the carpet very clean too.

Miles:
I like brother. He likes to play with me.
When I can come out to play, I am learning how the house goes.

Pierro and I play in the hallway upstairs,

then we race downstairs

mom likes to wash me too.
Sometimes I get mad when she cleans my butt and paws!

Pierro:
We hope you have a very nice Memorial Day today.
It is sunny and hot here

Frootbat Friday

Pierro:
yep there are two frootbats in this house now
I like Miles! I have not met him formally... but when mom opens his door to go inside, he tries to run out of there like his room is on fire!

I like to watch him under the door and listen to him.
We eat our foods together on either side of the door sometimes.
****Mom is going to take a big bag of my poops in to the vet and let them play with my poops, just to see if I have any giardia in them, if that comes back perfect, then the next step is trading blankies. Then -- perhaps Miles can come downstairs in the prison box.

Miles:
Get me out of here!!!!

Happy Friday and Happy Week-end bronkbronks

****Poop update :-(
This is Rosemary speaking: yes, it is that disappointing that I have to barge in on Pierro's bloggie to explain such news.
Pierro still has a little bit of giardia (they found only two cysts! this is far less cysts than past examinations). I feel so absolutely terrible for him. He is the most adorable and sweet kitty ever EVER. So, my vet, at my urging, called CurlieSwirlie Teri's vet/employer, Dr. Janice Ellison and got some good information, and they decided together on a plan. As you might know, Dr. Ellison is very familiar with Miles. Miles has been thoroughly examined by this vet since birth and also treated Miles when he and his brothers, Bosco Zeuss and Carlos got that tummy bug last week which delayed the homecoming of three kittens...
here is the latest: Wedgewood Pharmacy is making medicine for Pierro. A new medicine. It is called Ponazuril. He will have to take it for three days, while he is taking this, I will do exactly what I have done over the past few months (my house is taking on a faded look in every nook and crevice, perhaps I should weather and distress my furnishings as well, haha) scrub and scrub and scrub everything everyday over and over.

This makes me sad. We love Pierro. He came from a very bad breeder. There, I said it. I never thought it, I never wanted to believe it because I believe everyone is good and honest.
I was wrong. Still, I never ever regret falling in love with Pierro, finding him (Caesar found him for me) and bringing him into our home. Pierro is a gentle and sweet kitty. When we brought him home to Princess two years ago, he was just such a gentle and mild natured boy. He has never changed even going thorough all of these struggles. He is so lovable!

I am sorry we have not visited blogs. We will try to come and see your lovely blogs I love them, all of you, every one of your blogs. I am so busy. Blizzie is getting better she is in a cast now and using crutches, we have been blessed with purrs and prayers for her surgery and recovery and we are thankful to all of you. taking care of her was a lot of work and I am an olde nurse from dino-days. Funny thing we have been using hubby's deluxe office chair (he works at home) for a wheel chair to whizz her over to the bathroom and also three times I washed her hair at the kitchen sink with her in that office chair, tilted back sitting on two more pillows, trash bags everywhere to catch the splashes... hilarious
I could type up a novel here... but I will let you know that we are going to beat this mean bug and get it out of Pierro and it is going to take time. Sadly, Miles will be confined and I will probably have to bathe him (this actually sounds fun, and I am beginning to think he needs a bath anyway) and Pierro three days straight.
If my hands do not crumble and fall off I will come and visit with Pierro. He misses all of you because every one of you are just the greatest friends and the nicest playmates ever!
Friendship is unnecessary,
like philosophy, like art....
It has no survival value;
rather it is one of those things
that give value to survival.
