I like chicks!

Hello furiends

Pawesome day, we have lots of snow in Switzerland. Snow is some white stuff called flakes that comes from heaven and it covers the grass and the streets. I can see it from the window. It's also very cold. When one of the flakes lands on your nose you can lick it off, it's only wet and not very tasty. Maybe next winter I am allowed to go outside. I still stay inside but my human furiend says in spring I am allowed to go out. I don't care actually, I don't want to go. I like the cozyness of the flat, it's always warm and I don't have to fear for my life like I had to in Italy.

My human furiend has a challenge blog where you can win prizes. It is called Inky Chicks and I want to catch the chicks but I don't know where to find them. If you do, let me know and I'll eat them all! I like chicken (my human furiends only likes them alive when she can pet them and see they are happy and safe).

She made a card for this first challenge of the year. And when she is not here I might check the butterflies on the card to see if I can eat them!

Meow-meow!

I am a craft helper!

Hello furiends

Sorry I have been absent a while. I was sick and wasn't in a mood to blog. On the first of this year I was very apathetic and I had fever and my human furiends were scared and brought me to the emergency. I got antibiotics and soon felt better. 

How did you start into the new year? I hope you are all doing pawesome! 

My human furiend says I am like a little child. She lit some candles and I wanted to sniff on them and then I nearly burnt my whiskers. She says the easy life is now over she has to put away anything that can break, anything that is poisonous/toxic and anything that is eatable. She does not trust me tee hee! 

I also love to play with her craft stuff and she doesn't want me to do this. But hey, I just ignore her! 

She made a paper bag Christmas card for 2017 (I already learned she is very organised!) and I tried to help her choosing the right embellishments. She didn't use some of the pearls I tried to show her! It's her loss!

My eye still looks a bit funny but the vet says this is because of the operation and it might take another couple of months until it is back to normal. I like that my human furiend makes a fuss about it all the time and she kisses it and pets me and is nice to me.

How gorgeous are these Gorjuss Girls?

Hello furiends

Have you all eaten too much? My human furiend says she cannot hear anymore when people moan they ate too much. How can anyone eat too much anyway?! She did not eat too much. She just skipped some meals to eat more at dinner time.

I have to eat some pain killers that she mixes under my food. She says it's good for me because I had another operation last Friday. The vet took another polyp out. Now I finally can breathe normally and don't have to breathe through my mouth, yaaaay. And it's easier to chase my other furiends, tee-hee! My human furiend though is still worried a bit and she watches me very carefully and as soon as I snore her heart skips a beat. I think she is afraid I am still in danger.

My human furiend even had the time to create a card this weekend. She ooooh-ed and aaaaaah-ed all the time, I think it's because of the bunny. I like bunnies too - in my bowl! She says I am mean, she would never eat a bunny!

Have a pawesome day, furiends!

Christmas is in the air

Hello furiends

It's me again. How are you, furiends? I am doing great. I have to go to the vet again next Friday because he wants to see me again. It's the doc that did the operation in my throat and I love him, he saved my life I think. I think my human furiend is very happy that he said he wants to see me again because she was not very satisfied with my last visit (you have to know it's not the same vet).

Hey, the other cats don't wanna play with me, I think they are very mean. Sunny Sunshine is very fat and my human furiend wants her to play with me so that I can chase her through the house and she might loose some weight. But she always hisses at me when I try to play with her. George is never home and Freddy leaves the flat when I want to play with him. They are spoilsports and I am pretty bored. At least my human furiend plays with me sometimes! And she bought me tons of soft balls and cat toys.

She also played with her toys, look:

And she also made another Christmas card:

 

 

Gotta go, furiends, I think she is filling my bowl. 

Talk to you laters-taters!

You're arrested! Meeooooowie!

Hello furiends

How are you doing today? It's a purrfect Caturday and I love to relax. I checked the weather in my home country and it's 10°C and sunny. Here in Switzerland it is only 7°C today but sunny too. But it gets really cold sometimes; recently it was below zero, brrrr. I have no winter fur and it would be really paweful to live in the streets. Luckily I have a warm and cosy place to live now!

I keep helping my human furiend on her craft desk. Keeping it tidy for her and also help her to chose the right tools and crafts supplies. She keeps saying I am more a nuisance than a help but I think she misunderstands nuisance. I'm sure she means cuteness, not nuisance!

Her co-worker who was her apprentice and now still works in her office is a very funny and nice young lad she says. She often tells me stories about him. I think he must be a pawesome human although she says he eats animals ^.^ (how can someone eat us?!).

He turned 21 recently and his dream is to become a police officer. So my human furiend was very much inspired by a card from artist Lisa, a wonderful blogger furiend from her and she said she would copy the card. The original can be found here and of course Lisa's card is much more impressive! My human furiend is very disappointed that only 25 crafty furiends follow her blog. Please go to Lisa's blog and follow her too, she is pawesome!

Okay, I gotta go and check if all my toy balls are still under the couch and then I have my human furiend get them out for me and play with me.

Do reindeer have red noses?

Hello furiends

I hope you are doing fine! I am quite fine too. My human furiend dragged me to the nasty vet and he tried to look into my mouth to check if he can see if some parts of the polyp is still there. I wanted to bite off his fingers. Actually I scratched them all, I was a bit angry. I mean, they cut my claws a bit so that I don't get stuck all the time. But I think it's because my human furiend has scratches from my sharp nails when I sit on her chest and knead, if you know what I mean. 

The vet did not see anything and he said I should get a general anaesthesia if he wants to be sure and he didn't want to risk this since I had one two within two month. My human furiend agreed and now she has to watch me very carefully and tell the vet as soon as my breathing gets badder. I do forgive her tough that she brought me to the vet, I think it's because she is so worried about me. If only I could tell her that I am fine!

Yesterday I was allowed to help her in her craft room and I love making her smile. Don't I look cute?

She made another Christmas card with some super cool reindeer dudes. I have never met a reindeer, but I think I would love to see one when I finally am allowed to go outside. My human furiend says I have to stay inside until Spring because I have no winter fur and I would be cold if I accidentally get lost. I don't mind, I love the warmth in the house and also the safety.

But when it is time I will prove her that reindeers indeed do have red noses. I mean, I heard it in a song and I think reindeers even live here in Switzerland. But she says no, it's not true. She has no clue, silly human furiend!

But here is the card:

Okay, I will see if I can get her to play fetch the ball with me. I love when she has to get the ball from under the couch for me!

Christmas card

Hello furiends

 

What a cosy home the universe has given me! It’s just pawesome. I especially like the food and that my new human furiend always is nice to me. She pets me and she doesn’t care that I drool on her neck and wipe my wet mouth in her face. She does not scold me, even when I accidentally broke her glass lamp on the living room floor. And guess what? She makes such a fuss when she sees that I find the cat loo. She probably was scared I would poop on the floor, silly human furiend. As is if I would do that!

 

But she is a bit worried too because I still breathe so heavily. Now I hear her say she will bring me to the vet on Caturday to check if it’s only my cold or if there is anything wrong and what she can do about it. Sometimes she takes away my play-balls because I pant so much when I run through the flat.

 

Have you seen the card she made? I can show you a piccie of it. I think it’s pawesome. Everytime when she plays in her craft room she drops some ribbon and I love catching it and speed away with it.

 

Meow-meow

Elly

It's pawesome!

Hello furiends

How are you today? I think I already settled in here. The human furiends are nice, they pamper me all the time! I get lots of yummie things to eat and they even provided me a toilet in the living room (I think the human furiend was scared I would not use a toilet at all and she rather places it very centered so I can not miss it, ha ha).

I have been to a room in the flat which she loves. I can tell from the look on her face when she goes and caresses the boxes in the shelves. Look, she often sits here and makes some funny joyful noises:

 

She even gave me a bit of a ribbon to play with! I think I will roam the room when she is at work tomorrow. Maybe I will find some more ribbons to play with.

She then explained me that she makes cards (I am not sure what it is, but I think this is something she writes nice things in it and sends it to someone... why can't she make a phone call?!). 

I can give you an example of what the cards look like:

I am glad I already got my name or she would have given me a funny name too. She still giggles about the chick names (Mary Poopins, Feather Locklear, Sofia Laurhen, Henifer Aniston, Audrey Henburn, Grace Shell-y, Elizachick Taylor). I don't wanna think of what paweful names she would give to a cat.

Okay, I think I will go and have a rest, I still have a cold and my throat is a bit sore too. 

Have a lovely rest of the Sunday!

Meow-meow

Hello furiends, I am in my new furever home!

Hi furiends!

Wow, I already got 5 followers! Thank you! 

You know what? This Ally I told you about in my last post, she picked me up today with a very tall human furiend. They came to the clinic and I was very happy to see them. He even had long arms and could pet me on my head. I think he is very nice. I can tell from his touch that he is very gentle to animals. I admit, I fell in love with him <3

Look, this is me in the kennel at the vets clinic:

They told my new human furiend a bit about me. It's funny to listen to that. I know everything about me but shush, I will not tell them. They said they don't know my age because I don't have my baby teeth anymore. So I could be 1 or even 10. It's unpolite to tell a lady's age where I come from! 

They were talking about my tiny tail too. They think I was born with it but they have no idea! I'm not telling them that the life on the streets was rough and I broke my tail and I also lost a piece. Now it looks like a pig's tail.  

Anyway, they took me home and my new human furiends were surprised how relaxed I was in the car. I was excited though. And still feeling unwell too, I have a bad nose, it's blocked from the cold I caught, but the vet says it will soon be ok.

In my new home I met the other cats. They were not so pleased to see me. I like the big old grumpy tom cat the most. He is very relaxed and didn't mind when I was sniffing at his fur. He just opened an eye, looked at me and went back to sleep. He even let me eat next to him, look:

I liiiiike him very much, such a cool dude! And how big he is! And he looks just like me, don't you think?

There is another girl too, she is called Sunny Sunshine. Wow, she is soooo fat, but of course I don't tell her. I wanna be furiends with her! She followed me all afternoon and then she got used to my sight I think. She said my mouth stinks tough. But I am not mad at her because I really think I stink because of all the meds I got and the wound in my throat. My human furiends saw the polyp in a plastic bag at te vet and they were shocked, it was very huge.

This is me on the table watching Sunny:

I then got very tired of all the excitement and I went to the couch to have a nap. I fell asleep and my human furiend took some pics of me and she laughed because I was snoring. Silly human furiend, this is because my nose is blocked and I can't breathe very well.

I think I will take some pics of her too tonight to show her how she snores and how her mouth is open, what do you think?!

I also told her how to take selfies and this is what came out:

1) "Hey, human, get your camera!"

2) "Human, nooooo, you have to hold it in front of us!"

3) "Yeah, that is purrfect, I look cute! Now take a pic!"

I think I will have a pawesome life here! 

I also seen a room where she hides lots of ribbons. Not sure if they are all for me though. She murmered something like it's for her cards. Hm, whatever she means. I think I will soon find out and show you!

But for now I will enjoy the rest of this Caturday!

So long, furiends!

Hi, my name is Elly

Hello furiends

My name is Elly and I was a street cat. Some lovely furiends from Switzerland found me when they were on a neutering action (this is when they do something inside you to make sure you won’t have any babies that will land on the street like me). You have to know that an elderly lady called me hers but she never let me in the house, I had to live outside all my life. This was very hard. Living outside means be aware of all the danger and never know of how much food you get. Many of my furiends were ill and had bad injuries and some even died. Some I never saw again.

I was ill too. I hardly was able to breathe because of the polyp in my throat. The lady who was in charge of the neutering action saw me and she knew something was wrong and that I needed help or I would not survive. I don’t want to go into details, it’s embarrassing that they were able to catch me (they bait me with food!) and then I suddenly woke up again feeling unwell, dizzy and very tired. People were there and my tummy hurt. I heard someone say I will never be able to have babies now. They also cut me a little peace off my ear. Apparently this is a sign for animal furiends to recognise and they would not catch me again. Well, anyway. The nice lady hold me often in her arms, she was very nice to me. She said she will take care of my bad breathing and that she will find me a forever home where I get lots of yummie food and love and will be pampered. She brought me to a foster home where I stayed a few weeks. Then someone picked me up and drove me Switzerland. I didn’t like the journey. It was very exhausting and I was scared because I didn’t really know what would happen to me.

In Switzerland I came to an animal hospital. They all were very nice to me. I am not used to furiends making a fuss. It was kinda nice though.

 I had the operation yesterday. Now my throat is sore. They took the huge polyp out and it has to heal now. Someone said I lost a lot of blood and the operation was very difficult. Also they said that I probably would have died withing a couple of months if I did not have had the OPs. I know soon someone called Ally will pick me up. She will be my new human furiend and she must be a nice person, so I heard. She will take care of me and love me. I already love her. I hope she will like me. I don’t wanna go back to the place I come from. I hope she will love me as much as she loves the other cats that already live in her home.

I hope I will have a very long and happy life with Ally <3

Can't wait until Caturday to meet her for the first time!
