Pawdicure– also posted in Sookie

Will admit, one of the first things I thought on our drive home with Sookie was that I couldn’t wait to paint her nails. Not being a stranger to giving pawdicures.

She looks good in OPI Absolutely Alice..no?

Crazy cat lady

I’m not ashamed to admit it, tho sometimes I think maybe I should be selective with how much I admit LOL

We only have 3 cats at the moment, people seem to think that is a lot and are a little surprised when I say ONLY 3. I tend to think it isn’t enough..well not right at this moment as we a dealing with the crazy that is a new puppeh. Kitteh are SOOO much easier. But, I tend to think about 4-5 is a nice number…1 cat per person. I think the most we have ever had is 9 (4 adults and a litter of meezers) back when we had a brief thought being a reg breeder would be a great idea.

In the office yesterday and co-worker was browsing Catch of the Day, and loling at the pet prams they have..telling everyone in the office to come check it out…OMG who would buy that.

Umm…I knew all too well who would buy that….

yup…me! There goes trying to act like some semblance of a normal, balanced person. In my defence, I haven’t actually taken them out for a walk in it …..yet, just made the kids do it. But we have plans to once Sookie is allowed out and about when her vaccinations are up to date.

Sookie doesn’t mind the pram, and the children don’t seem to get why we can’t take her to the shops in it. “Why not, she’s a baby..like all the other babies in prams at the shops?”. Oh my poor children, I am so sorry..I will start saving for your therapy now. It’s too late for me.

Noiceities-Kitteh Snuggles and twat rugs– also posted in Alex, Blogging, Calais, Gemini

For ease of use, Noice-ities is now freestyle. So each week I am going to share something noice, and something not noice from my week.

Noice…
Working from home today and feeling a bit flat, nothing beats kitteh snuggles. Kittehs must be cold, and I bet they aren’t really enjoying being home a lone a lot these days. So have had both the chocolate babies fighting over who gets to sit right in my face. Alex is happier to ride in the back seat.

And now for the Not Noice…and well, just plain creepy!

We were out rug shopping on the weekend and spotted this, and all I could think of was THESE cupcakes.

The whispering eye rug…who in their right mind would buy that?? (click to bigify)

No..we didn’t

We did get a bargain tho, the rug we got was originally $899 and we got it for $220..woo!

Happy Caturday!– also posted in Alex, Calais, Gemini

Guess there will be no washing going on here today. Yes, my bath is actually the dirty clothes basket at the end of a busy week. If your bath was that colour, would would want to cover it too!

Long weekends, perfect for napping.

Oscar the paddle boarding meezer

Of course, I already knew meezers were awesome, but check out Oscar, the paddle boarding meezer!

Every morning for the last month, 14-year-old Oscar wakes at 6am and follows his dad, Rob Van Wegan, down to the edge of the Noosa Waters canal and makes himself comfortable on the paddle board. Check out the full story and more pics…
How cute is he, and he looks like he is absolutely loving it, check out the possum tail LOL

All ears– also posted in Gemini

Gemini went in for desexing last Friday.

(excuse the crappy iPhone pics)

We had planned to breed with her (registered of course) but with losing Stasia, and me starting a new job we decided now wasn’t the best time. I had also been putting it off a little, Alex does NOT cope well with anyone going to the vet and coming home smelling weird. So had to wait till I had a few days at home to keep an eye on her, and to calm him down.
She wasn’t keen on the car trip, my ears were ringing for the rest of the day after the screaming the whole trip.

Dropped her off, signed the forms…made sure to tell them DO NOT TATTOO her. And went home to await the call that she was OK to pick up.

Manpet picked her up on his way home from work. She was quite alert, so we let her straight out of the bag.

And then I saw it..and my heart sank. They had tattooed her.

Yes, it is just an ear…but of course I am superficial and shallow..why else would I spend $450+ on bloody cats.

(I’m not sure what the regulations are with ear tattooing, I tried searching but didn’t find anything. Does anyone know?)

After having my little flip out tantrum, which was not at all helped by manpet saying “there’s not much you can do about it now” I thought maybe I can try and wipe some of the ink out…and it won’t be so dark. So armed with some makeup wipes I went and gently cleaned out her ear.

I was a little surprised with the result, didn’t take much and 99% of the ink had come out. Either the person doing the tattooing sucked, or they realised last minute that they shouldn’t be. What ever..I don’t care. I am just SO relieved I don’t have to look at a dirty great big ugly tattoo in her ear.

She has bounced back fine, and decided to remove her stitches the first say she was left alone on Monday. Thankfully the incision had already fully closed. Amazing how quick they heal, a woman takes a good 6 weeks to heal from a desexing LOL
