Feline Friday Flashback: Please Send Sun

Meows from Mudpie! 

This photo flashback is from 2018. What I'd give to have the sun in my eyes right now! It's been terribly rainy and icky here this week. Then by next week temps are supposed to be in the high 80s so we'll be complaining about the heat! I do need my sun though. I'm a sun goddess.

On another note, please send me some purrs and prayers. I have a V-E-T appointment this afternoon. It's been 4 months since my last checkup and bloodwork, and given my kidney issues and diabetes Mommy says we have to stay on top of things.

Whatever, Mommy...wake me when it's over.

Feline Friday is simple to join. All you have to do is:

Post a picture, drawing, cartoon or video of a cat (They may be silly or cute). 

Unboxing April's CatLadyBox

 The theme of April's CatLadyBox was the Orange Cats Box...here's what was inside!

Featured Cat Lady Artist:

Gabriela Avila

Less People, More Cats Tee:

This just might be the most purrfect quote I've ever seen on a shirt!

Reusable Cats Paperless Towels:

5 adorable designs, countless uses.

Kitty Paper Clips:

I have other kitty paper clips, but these are extra special because they're orange.

Scratcher Insert:

Mudpie loves this kind of scratcher, and it fits right inside a CatLadyBox which we all know kitties love to hang out in.

Squishy Kitty and Sushi Sweethearts Catnip Toys:

The sushi is just too cute with cat faces in the middle, and I've kept the orange kitty toy for my Mo memorial. I told Mudpie we each get a toy from this box :)

Mother's Day #CaturdayArt #SundaySelfie

Meows from Mudpie!

Since I'd like to have a little extra quality time with Mommy for Mother's Day, I asked her if we could do just one blog post this weekend, combining our Caturday Art project with my Mother's Day message/Sunday Selfie.

Happy Mother's Day to all the pawsome cat moms out there!!!

And now our weekly answers for the Friendly Fill-Ins challenge, hosted by 15andmeowing and Four-Legged Furballs!

1. I know I am having a good day when Mudpie is happy and healthy.

2. I sleep more when I am overly stressed. I guess it's an escape mechanism.

3. A sick cat makes me feel helpless.

4. I have a lot of confidence in my ability to always expect the worst possible outcome in any situation. I'm the Queen of Doom Spiraling. 

Thankful Thursday ~ DIY Cat Shelves

Meows from Mudpie!

Last week I told you about the kitty cupboard Mommy put together for me thanks to our local Buy Nothing group. 

She also picked up a cube organizer for herself even though she didn't have any specific plans for it at the time. After several days she finally decided where to put it (in front of a hallway closet we seldom open), and on Tuesday she went to Walmart to get some canvas storage bins to use as drawers. Unfortunately they didn't have the color she wanted so she came home empty handed and disappointed.

Then she started thinking - she didn't need to buy new storage bins, she already had some ~ cat-themed storage bins from CatLadyBox and Triple T Studios! And two of the three bins she was already using so that freed up more space elsewhere.

 

We couldn't be happier with how it turned out. Mommy says she doesn't have a decorating bone in her body so she's pretty proud of herself for thinking of fun ways to use both pieces of furniture!

This makes me feel really old, but we first posted this little funny TEN years ago! It still makes us chuckle, and hope it has the same effect on you!

Made You Look! #SundaySelfie

Meows from Mudpie!

The other night I stared towards the window like this for about 10 minutes. Really freaked Mommy out wondering what I was looking at! It was fun MOL :) 

Maybe I shouldn't mess with her head like that...

We're joining our friends at The Cat on My Head for the Sunday Selfies blog hop!  

Derby Day #CaturdayArt

Meows from Mudpie, and Happy Derby Day!

Do you plan to watch the Kentucky Derby today? We will be even though Mommy watches horse races with one eye closed. She says NASCAR is her sport of choice because when the drivers crash they aren't destroyed like the poor horses are when they fall. She loves the Triple Crown races though - they're really all she watches - and she's so thankful she's now gotten to see two Triple Crowns in her lifetime. We hope it happens again, but more than anything we just pray for a safe race each year. The horses' lives are more important than any trophy.

And now our weekly answers for the Friendly Fill-Ins challenge, hosted by 15andmeowing and Four-Legged Furballs!

1. When I need to make a tough decision, I procrastinate.

2. If I were a dance, I would be a country two-step.

3. I'm a stay at home cat mom is my current life motto.

4. Living on your own terms is the best part of being an adult, and knowing there are more days behind you than ahead is the worst part.
