I have been away too long! I had a birfday last week - my fourth one! - and Mama made me a special meat-treat dinner that was sooooo yummy. I didn't even hafta share with my sistercat, Isabella!
Speaking of Isa, we have been very worried about her, because she losed so many pounds. We didn't notice because her furs are so fluffy. But, Mom took her to the vet office where I go and they weighed her and she had to take tests, too! They said her thyroid is hyper and her kidneys are tired. She hasta take medicines, but I'm not so sure... My medicines taste ICKY. But, Isa gets tuna juices and meats with her medicines in it and she doesn't seem to mind one bit! It didn't seem fair to me, so, I snuck behind Mama and I ate her tuna treats right up! TWICE! Mama was soooooo mad. But, I felt better. I think it evened the score! A little.
Mama called the EMERGENCY Vet place and asked them if I would be ok since I eated Isa's medicines along with the tuna (I guess Mom wasn't bluffing!) and they said it was OK. One time wouldn't hurt. WHEW! I was glad. I didn't wanna hafta go to the vet office.
I hafta go to the vet office this week, tho. Mama said they are going to give me something to make me really sleepy and then, when I wake up, I will have clean teeth and little bumpies in my mouf will be gone. I didn't like the way I felt last time after I woke up. But, Mama said that she would be right there to get me and we would go home and snuggle. I guess that's OK.
This weekend was really fun. My Grama came to visit and she wore her silky softy nightgown and let me sit on her lap and have the softness on my belly while she rubbed me on top. It felt soooo good. I love how my Grama talks to me. She uses her funny, squeaky voice that has lots of loves in it that I can feel and they feel sooo good. I am always sad when she leaves. Sometimes, I sit and look out the window, thinking that maybe she just went to the store for brown cookies or more of that red juice that she and Mama like to drink. But, I usually know that she won't be back the same day because Mama is sad. Mama said that we will see her again soon, tho. Next time, at Grandma's house! I love going there. She has a pond... with FROGS in it!
*yaaaaaaaawn*
Well, I'm kinda tired after writing all of this. I'm going to get back to my nap.
I love you, my friends and family. I'm sorry that I was away for so long!
Love,

A Very Special Day...
Today is my two-year anniversary of being with my Mama. She says it's a pretty special day and she gave me a special Himalayan Dog Chew to try! Ohhhh YUM! It's yak cheese! There's nothing I love more than cheese! Well, that's not true... I love my Mama more than cheese.
Mama says it's strange to think that I've only been with her for 2 of my 4 years, she says that it seems that I've always been a part of her life - she can't imagine her life without me. I feel that same way. I can't imagine being away from my Mama, although I do love it when we travel about to friend's houses!
We have had a lovely few days of sunshine, here and there. Oh, how I love soaking up sunbeams. They make my everything feel good!
Mama says the Weatherpeople are talking about SNOW this week. Goodness! If it does snow, I hope it doesn't hurt all of the tender little green plants coming up outside. I've been keeping an eye on them every day and they seem to be ready for warm weather, not freezy snows! Maybe Mama will cover some things up, just like she does me when I'm chilly?
It's been a quiet past few weeks around our house. Mama hurt her back (slipping in the garden on that icky, slimy mud that gets stuck on my paws - I tell you, it's NO GOOD!) and it's taking a long time for her to heal. She's spending a lot more time than usual laying down and while I sure do like her being home with me, I don't like it when she isn't feeling well. I worry.
Then, yesterday, my "forefinger claw" got stuck in the metal grate on the back door when I was alerting Mama that I was ready to come inside and that nasty metal tore some of my claw right off! Ohhh how it hurt. I licked and licked and licked to try and lick the ouch away, but, it didn't work. Mama soaked my paw in something a little stinky and it did feel a little better after that, but it was still bleeding a bit.
One time, I ripped something Mama called a "dew claw" clean off my paw, when I was playing with friends. man, that really HURT! But, before I knew it, I was all better and I didn't have to wear my special shoe anymore. I'm sure that this ouch will heal even faster.
I hope all of the ouches of all of the peoples and pets in the world heal quickly and that we can all get back to enjoying many sunbeam naps and snuggleloves with our friends and loved ones...
Love,
Melvino

I Can Smell It!
Can you?
It's Springtime! I can smell that it's on the way VERY soon.
Mom bought a hyacinth at her favorite grocery store the other day and it stunk up the whole house with it's pretty purple blossoms! She loves the smell, but it's too strong for me. It makes my eyes water! So, she took it to her office. Thanks, Mom.
Last weekend, I helped Mom rake the yard of all of the fall leaves that have been out there so long. Personally, I think they were nice. I prefer walking on leaves rather than the mud underneath! Man, my paws got SO muddy! She made me take a BATH when we got inside. I didn't much like that. But, I LOVE the special massage that Mom gives me at bathtime, so, I guess it's ok.
We were soooo tired after working in the yard all day. It was nice to snuggle up and have a rest that evening.
Do any of you have little green shoots coming out of the ground in your yards? We do! Mom says the Day Lilies are starting to show! They are so beautiful and orange in the summertime. It will be a while before we see flowers, but, it's nice to know that they are on their way!
Personally, I can't wait for warmer, drier days. I love having my pick of warm sunbeams to lay under.
I hope that all of you, my friends, are well and hopeful, looking forward to fun in the warmer days ahead and grateful for the signs of spring greeting us already.
Love,
Melvino
