Traveling Cats for Tuesday

Hi! We have turned into traveling cats! Mom has taken us down to her sister's beach house for a few days. We have never been to the beach before and Mom says that we probably won't get to play in the big sandbox while we are here. Mom's sister has her THREE dogs here and her kitties had to stay home.

Here I am by one of the windows in our bedroom. We have a view of the lake out back and there is a hammock on this deck. The ocean is a short walk away.

Oh, this cord MUST be adjusted! What fun!




Thank you, everyone, for the concern you showed to me when I was sick. Man, I felt BAD, but I am MUCH better now. I'm eating better and I like to play again. I had to take medicine and the stuff that Mom gave me with a syringe actually tasted YUMMY. I would chew on the syringe as she pulled it from my mouth. Mom said that the doctor put chicken flavoring in it. I wish my thyroid medicine came in a yummy flavor rather than a bitter pill. Because I don't like "stinky goodness" anymore and am back to my crunchies, Mom cannot hide them in my food and has to force the pill down my throat. I try to be cooperative because I know I need it. (Note from Mom: Jake has been amazing about taking his pills. If it were Bathsheba who needed twice daily meds, I don't know what I would do.) Mom says that I have a follow up appointment with the doctor on July 3. I hope they don't take my blood again.

Everywhere I go, I must check out the water from the bathroom sink. Mmm, pretty good.

That's the report from Avon, NC, our dear friends!

It's great to see you kitties again! I'm glad you are doing so much better, Jake. Do you think you and Bathsheba might be able to sneak out and see the giant sandbox for a bit? All that traveling sounds exciting!

You are very brave to travel around like that! I would hide under the bed. Any bed!

Jake, I am glad you are feeling better. Maybe you would enjoy taking your pills inside Pill Pockets?

Jake ... Tell your momma to get you some Pill Pockets from PetCo or PetSmart ... They are yummy. In fact, visit Skeezy's blog an' look at the 7/16 posting about Greenies samples. They'll give you a pill pockets sample, too!

Love you! Smooches!
