Thankful Thursday

 

Tama-Chan: Hello everyone. Queen Tama here. Today, I am thankful that my appetite has improved and I have been enjoying my food more. #1 says I am not out of the woods here, but I ate a lot better yesterday than over the previous days. I am still getting the Nutribound, which I hate and fight with her over taking it. She says it's probably what sustained me through those few days when I ate so little. She has gone and gotten herself a part-time job at our local pharmacy, so who knows what else she is going to come up with...

Anyway, I am continuing to give her work support at her desk and getting some good brushies in return, for which I am also thankful.

Wednesday Whinnies - Violette's Sweet Sixteen!

 

#1 here. My beautiful Violette celebrated her 16th Birthday last Sunday. I have known her since she was about 4 months old and was gambolling in the field near my house with her Mama, Hotesse. She became mine when she was a little shy of her third birthday. She has brought me nothing but joy over the years, and I hope we will share many more adventures in the years to come. Here is a photo retrospective of the past 16 years.

Tama-Chan Tuesday

 

Tama-Chan: Hello everyone and thank you so much for all the kind thoughts and purrs you sent my way. I did give #1 a bit of a scare over the weekend, when my eating slowed down and then almost stopped on Sunday afternoon and evening. Crafty #1 always has tricks up her sleeve, though. She always has in stock something called Nutribound (made by Virbac), which is a complementary liquid with all the essential nutrients for cats plus an appetite stimulant. She started giving it to me on Sunday evening and has continued. She also spoke with Dr. C who said it was hopefully just an upset tummy, and that she'd been seeing a lot of that lately as the weather chops and changes. So, #1 persevered in giving me tiny meals and I started eating better yesterday. Now to continue! She says I'll still get the Nutribound for a number of days.

I have also resumed my supervisory duties by #1's side!



It was a rough couple of days, though, and I need to rest and recover now!

Momo's Monday Memo

 

Momo-Chan. Hello, everyone. Fluf-Puff here. Just a quickie to let you know that #1 is busy looking after Queen Tama and trying to encourage her to resume her great eating habits. So we'll be concentrating on that for a while. The Queen herself will post an update tomorrow.

Snuggles on Sunday

 

Tama-Chan: Welcome, Dear Friends, to our Sunday post where we share the love. I have to confess that I have not been feeling my best the past couple of days. My appetite has always been excellent but I have not been eating as much. #1 is taking really good care of me, finding stuff I like and giving me lots and lots of small meals. We took this selfie when she was serving me one such meal:


Benny and Momo have been snuggling up a storm this week, mostly with Ollie:






And Miss Philomena is on her way to becoming a serious snuggler! Here she is with #1:



To close, we have a really cute pic of Ms. C and the dogs snuggling with her:
