How Meep Got Down ....

Meep LOVES to climb trees .... shes a lil Monkey - however if you are near when she wants down she will MEEP for you to come save her ....

Meep High in the tree

Meep Wanting out if the tree

Dady Helping Meep outta the tree

Meep Safe!

Meepy Sleepy from Tree climbing

Meep only goes out when Momy and Dady are home because she is really little - she is 9 months old but only weighs 5 pounds - WaterMelon plays with her and watches after her

A little late but .... Balanced

Saturdays Photo hunter was Balanced

Meep is very balanced

Momy says BIG thank yous to EVERYONE for all of their kind thoughts and purrs. We had a pretty good weekend hanging out with her and loving on her. She was quite needy this weekend and wouldnet leave us alone. It was VERY rainey here yesterday and last night - Granmaw and Pawpaw came over last night for chicken wings and football. Thats was fun!

Sad Day

Momy had a hard week this week with being sick and Scotchy's paw .... then today GrandMaw called her at work to say one of the barn kitties was sick .... Momy left work early and took Gracie to the vet she was well at all. Her kidneys were failing.
There are several kitties that Momy takes care of, she has cought them and had then spayed or neutered and let them live their lives catching mousies and doing cat things. Gracie has been around GrandMaw and PawPaws house since Momy was in high school. Gracie was just a wee lil baby when Momy found her.
Gracie was at least 12 - she weighed only 5 pounds. This was only the second or 3rd time Momy had ever touched her, but she was so sick - Gracie went over the bridge just before 5 this afternoon.
While she was not a loving and friendly kitty she was VERY pretty - Momy whishes she had some pictures of her.

About 6 weeks ago the same thing happed to Marlea - she was 16 years old as far as Momy can remember. However, Marlea died on her own while in the vets care - there was nothing they could do for her.

A word from Momy:
Its hard to have a pet put to sleep - even a barn kitty that you never really touched. Its hard to be strong and say thoes words and sign the paper that the state requires. But sometimes you have to do it. And when you do you have to remember that you love them that much that you wont make them suffer.
I am fortunate that I live in an area and have the land to have many animals - but with that fortune come heartbreak that you loose some - I am greatful that I do know what happened to these 2 special kitties, lots of times outside cats just go off an die and you never know. I perfer to have a box to bury.
With this said - hug your kitty or your doggie tonight and tell them they are special because you can loose them so fast.

Purrs to you all!

ButterBean promises a Happy Post Tomorrow

Big Big Thank Yous!

Big Big Thank You to the Kewl Kitty Krew for featuring us on their blog the other day! There have been many new people visiting us and we LOVE you all!

Scotchy says thank you for all the purrs ... his lil paw is getting better but he still has 5 more days of antibotics to take.

We are getting ICE here in Virginia - we are ready for sunny and warm

Purrs to you all ...

The Bitey

We think Scotchy was playing or smacking or wacking at another kitty in the house one night last week and got the bitey ... not sure which one is responsible for it but .. he got got pretty good - he has been half way limping around for about a week. Every time Momy said she was calling the VET he would walk ok on it ... so she would wait then he would limp again ... and this went on for a few days until it looked like a knot the size of Momys thumb under his furs ....
This is what it looks like now  .....

Scotchy is doing good taking his medication

Its getting cold here in VA again and its raining so ... hes mostly okay staying inside

He is putting weight on his leg and he played this morning

Momy stayed home with us today she has been feeling sick and didnt sleep good last night but it seems that she slept really good today - we took good care of her and I think she feels better - Im glad!

Great Scotch

This is ButterScotch

The Man Cat

So ... somehow someway ... he got the bitey on his lil paw ... and Momy was sooo glad that she had yesterday off from work for MLK Day ... she took the Great Scotch to the Dr .... he had to stay for a while to have his paw shaved ... and opened and drained ... now he has to take medications and have it cleaned with peroxide and hes all not happy about not being able to go outside.

Momy is gonna take some pictures of him and his paw this evening and will put them up for all to see ... poor Scotchy

Feelin Frisky Friday ... eerrr not

All the friskie-ness wore us out!

Bean

WaterMelon

Lucky

Meep

Deer Friends

These are some of our friends .....

We watch them out the windows ....

MEEP

Meep is named Meep because she says MEEP .... shes a cutie

Shes very playful and the Dr called her a CALICO ... buts shes not a calico like we have seen before. She is very sweet :) she sleeps in bed with Momy and on the weekend when Momy is home she is allowed to go out and play. She loves the snows.

Meep was borned April 24, 2009 that makes her 9 Months old and she weighs right around 5 pounds. She is VERY petite, small, little.

So Dady was driving home that night and he saw the glowing eyes of something - he got out of the truck and he said here kitty kitty and she went running to him. He put her in the truck and just to make sure there wasnt another he went looking again and again he heard a meow ... but it was the same kitty - she jumped out the back window of the tuck and went running back to him, he said Ive already rescued you - your safe! Then he took her home to Momy!

Dady says there are too many of us at the house but Momy does not agree. Momy always tries to find good homes for the kitties she finds but after a few weeks she gives up because she loves them all. She tells dady that as long as she can afford them they are OK!

Good for them that we all get along ... mostly ... we growl at Scotchy when hes in the house ... but thats because he smells funny. hee hee :)

Oh we also want to send BIG BIG PURRRS to our buddy Kismet! and his LadyPerson! We are purring BIG for you dude and I vote we all take a nap in honor of Kismet and send him visions of Mousies to help him get betters! Visit Kismet here : Kismet We want him to get betters soon.

Late one Night

My dady is a volunteer fire fighter. My momy volunteers too but she dosnt fight fires she does other stuff for thoes fire dudes.
So Dady was at a fire meeting on night - momy was home with us ... actually momy was gettin ready for bed which is very exciting cause most of us get in the bed too ... oh by the way this was about last July (2009) so momy had taken out her eye balls when dady came home and he had something in his hand - he opened the bathroom door and momy said what the hecck is THAT ...

That was a Kitten!

See how skinnies she is ...

Momy felt her all over and discover a bump on her belly ... they made her a bed and a box and put her in the bathroom. Momy tried to find her a home ...

She LOVES to climb in trees

So Momy named her Monkey

Monkey went to see Dr D to be checked out - she still had a bump on her belly. Dr D said she was 12 weeks old and she weighed 2.5 pounds and the bump was a hernia -

So in October she had to have surgery to fix it and while they were in there they went ahead an spayed her. She weighed 3.8 pounds and was 6 months old. Oh and her name CHANGED from Monkey to Sugar to Honey to MEEP and that is who she is. She is MEEP.

Meep is just a BABY but she loves to climb thoes trees.

Much more on Meep tomorrow.
