Spirit "Angel" Whispurrs: Hi furrends, I have been so busy here on Heaven Side of The Bridge learning and immersing in ALL the holiday traditions that are part of the whole wide world this time of year. Like My Queen Mommy, Ms. Lady, Sista, The Brudders, and Sis Priss I missed Whispurring on Thursday have a great Thanksgiving. Of course days, in a good way, are irrelevant here.
However I did remember and want to mention yesterday in 2019 our dear furrend here....Sharon Balta, sent me a supurr dupurr package of great toys. I was so excited at the time I insisted My Queen Mommy hurry up getting it all out fur me to play by eating the nearest inedible object which you see was a lampshade. My siblings still enjoy those items. Receiving Miss Sharon's luvely note and thoughtful gift was one of the highlights of my life and I felt such thankfulness in my Queen Mommy's heart (couldn't see it in her eyes because remember my eyes stopped working, yet everything else picked up double time plus).
Have a beautiful day furrends I luvs you and will be helping send miracles your way; keep eyes and hearts open fur them.
11/25/2023
Thaddeus: I Earl Thaddeus, sometimes referred to as Thadz or The Thad Man or even Toothless (remembers I only got furront teeth), have luscious blue eyes ya know. Mom, and well every body luvs to gaze into them when they are bright and well; not my Squint Eye Ailments Flaring.
11/25/2023
Daughter: Mom I'd really dig some dry morsels fur treats after my pate. You will oblige if I take a Paparazzi selfie with you wishing furrends a blessed Thanksgiving Weekend? Uh ok sure, let's make it quick ok? Oh and be sure my luvely green eyes show up nice. I said quick... 4 pics is enough let's go now.....treats!
11/25/2023
Ezra: We've been kind of slow about a lot of things at The Castle recently fur diffurrent reasons so here we are into Thanksgiving weekend befur wishing all our U.S. furrends a great Thanksgiving holiday time and all furrends the blessings of Thanksgiving and thankfurrlness to everybody.
I had some yummy lunches yesterday and today and am relaxing fur a nap now.
10/29/2023
Solomon: Guess what I am being today fur Halloween weekend? Guess come on furrends! Mom? Brudders?
Trinity: Are you a Menace to Society? Maybe a Hooman Toddler? The Court Jester? You are getting on my nerves during my Dream Time.
Solomon: No Silly Brudder Trinity I am an Alarm Clock!!! That is why I am up in Mom and your faces waking you guys lol, aren't I a great Alarm Clock?
Trinity: Well I will give you (befur I Slap you with my Razors) Mom purrobably luvs your Alarm Clock purrrfurrmance more than the mechanical one.
10/29/2023
Ezra: I am going to be an Adventurer fur Halloween and pose in my Yurt. The Yurts aren't half bad by the way. I usually purrfurr the Lounges, but this is cozy.
10/29/2023
Lady: Boo! This is my Halloween pose you like it furrends? Am I scary and spooky looking? Do I look like our Halloween Bat furrends?
10/22/2023
Lady: Sissy "Angel" Whispurrs mentioned in her Whispurrs to Furrends earlier that Mom painted a picture Saturday that had a lot of 'symbolism' in it (I think that is the best Hoomans' Earth Word that fits; Hoomans have so many Instinct Language Limitations versus we furs, anyway I digress) that spoke to her heart as she especially honored and loved you yesterday, your Bridge Journey Anniversary Day. She is going to share some pictures of it. It does demonstrate a lot of our furramily "Earth Faith" beliefs and we realize, value and respect that is not the same fur all furrends.
Caleb: Hey Ms. Lady she also read that very eye opening book on your kinfolk the wolves, 'The Hidden Life Of Wolves', finishing it last night. Sissy Spirit "Angel" Whispurrs suggested we mention to furrends the book is good and the authors have films and advocacy effurrts all about your great fur ancestors and kinfolk the wolves.
10/22/2023
Spirit "Angel" Whispurrs: Brobro told about my Bridge journey from earth so eloquently befur he received his 'Guardian Angel' wings. Brobro luvs me so much he joined me within the year. Right Brobro?
Dante 'Guardian Angel' (Brobro): You are a wise Monarch Sissy and I do luvs you to the moon, sun and back and through Heaven, earth and all time; and Always Was and Will be your purrotector (though you don't need my purrotection this Side Of The Bridge). However I was Momma's too and as much as I luvs you I'd only leave Mom and Journey the Bridge when The Creator Scoops me up and Holds and Comfurrts me on His Lap.
10/22/2023
Spirit "Angel" Whispurrs: Hello and luvs my luvely furrends. Time is diffurrent here Over The Bridge in Heaven yet I know fur my Queen Mommy and whole Royal Furramily it seems unreal that today is 2 years since I Journeyed The Bridge.
I reminded Mom do some special things today thinking of me; I mean yes I realize she does so everyday yet extra special on point today. She painted a picture today that had a lot of symbolism in our hearts (hers and mine) about what life means and meant fur me and the most impurrtant entity ever my namesake, The Holy Spirit. Queen Mommy might share it later she said yet right now she's been having some Waterfall Eyes and is a lil bit weary. I have advised her go Cuddlez up with the Brudders, Sista Mercy, Sis Priss Daughter (I feel you Sis Priss though I did not get to meet you in the fur) and Ms. Lady too.
Speaking of Ms. Lady, Queen Mommy also finished a great book on wolves today too. That was another in honor of my memory action. You may wonder why I did not Whispurr to her to read about tigers, or leopards or lions or cheetahs huh? Well I am Over The Bridge and it's all good here my furrends the wolf furs have been dealt a bad hand in purrceptions and I am purrleased Queen Mommy was reading about how wonderfurrl they are to be able to keep them, in prayer, thought, awareness and advocacy. Like my hooman grandpa "T" used to say, "The Creator don't make no junk"; wolves are impurrtant in Nature's plan.
My furramily is gonna rest a while now and soak in luv's together and with we On This Side of The Bridge as well. Miracles and luvs to you all my furrends. I do miss you though I get to also always be with you; see that's the kind of Miracle Treats here. From Heaven's side the missing is full of joy not heart ache. XXOO

Caleb: I have gotz to give a Royal Apology Decree on my comments purrior here. Brudder Trinity has blasted me up one side and down the other because he did not make an In Purrson In The Fur Blessing Session this season either (he has gone In The Fur in years past). So I got extra blessings coverage fur Brudder Trinity and Sista Mercy. Whewwww are you ok now Trin-Trin? I did not mean to furrget mentioning you.
Caleb: Over the course of three diffurrent Blessings Of The Animals events on three diffurrent dates at three diffurrent houses of worship near our Castle we all got a chance to get Blessed in the fur (in purrson); well except fur Sista Mercy. Sista Mercy just absolutely did not want to go anywhere by Stagecoach and Mom Decreed since blessings is a peace, grace and serenity filled action we sure don't wanna make it Chaotic. So at the third blessing event, I kind of got double blessed fur her and everybody, Ms. Lady kind of did too.
So the Sunday befur St. Francis' Feast Day, myself, Brudders Solomon and Thaddeus and Sis Priss Daughter all got to go to a blessing event.
Then on St. Francis' actual Feast Day, Wednesday 10/4, Brudder Ezra and Ms. Lady went fur a blessing. That day because there were so many Dog Furrends milling about, Ms. Lady was more at ease staying in her Stagecoach in the Uber. She was purresent parked near the activities though.
So yesterday there was another blessing happening nearby and Mom told us we can never gets too much good mojo and karma. So I, as Royal Prince and youngest at becoming Royalty in The Kingdom and Ms. Lady as eldest repurrsented the whole Royal Court. I tell you what was exciting, as Ms. Lady again chose to stay in her Stagecoach in the Uber, this fur furrendly Spiritual Leader attentive to Ms. Lady's needs said she'd go directly over to the Uber to bless Ms. Lady. I am sooooooo glad she did because that gal can use all the blessings she can get, and whew don't I know it.
Also guess who was the ONLY Feline REPRESENTING? That would be me!!! No other felines getting blessed this day, so I share my grace with all Purr Furs Ok?
10/05/2023
Caleb: So me and Brudder Thaddeus were putting a hurting on Slinky here yet that is what Slinky needs realize he/she must expect being in the Down Under here at The Castle in the Laundering Corridors.
Thaddeus: Seems like there's a tuft of kitty fur in Slinky's clenched jaws. Hard to tell hope none of we furs took a bite even if a wee one. Mom is purrty sure this is a non-poisonious Slinky.
Caleb: Yeah I was so intense popping, bouncing, jabbing with my Rocky Balboa Moves while Mom tried to Referee us, that I slammed hard into her right hand pinky finger really jamming her knuckle joints....I Caleb hurts Mom's finger.....but it was an excited accident! I know Mom is not purrleased with a joint sprained, yet purrlease don't be upset with me Mom.
Mercy: What is with the Serpent???? There best not be any Serpent Slinkies in my Quarters!!
10/02/2023
Trinity: Six years ago, 9/29/17 exactly I was Gotcha'd. The Magnificent Event came up in Mom's Memories on Furriday.
After a week of Mom visiting with me in the Furrields at the Feline Immigration Center or what Sissy Spirit "Angel" Whispurrs used to call her Favorite Aunties and Uncle's neighborhood. I finally came furrever home to The Castle.
It was my Most Favorite Uncle that got me into my furrst Stagecoach after I Sung to everybody 'All Night Long' laying on that Blankie Mom left fur me outside that we'd been visiting on fur a solid week. And into that Stagecoach going.....it was not easy.
I was gonna Bust Out, but Our Most Favorite Uncle was smart and put zip ties on its doors til Momma got me to The Castle. That's them having a conversation with me early that morn.
That blanket that I bonded with Mom on was a favorite of a hooman relative of Mom's and it got disposed after he Crossed The Hooman Bridge (This was befur I became Mom's fur son). Mom retrieved it at the time because it was still useful (This Royal Court has strong Decrees in place regarding disposal of usable things) and was used many times yet none so precious as helping me Trust that Momma Luved ME and would Luv ME furrever.
That Blankie did furrinally go Bye-Bye fur good as it happens this past week. We Fumed It Purrsonally like various things we want to Make It Known Is Ours. Mom is great yet she is hooman and doesn't feel as wonderfurl about things we Mark as Ours as we do, she can't help but Smellz like a hooman and Our Purrsonal Fumes aren't Purrleasing to them most of the time. Mom was just too tired of dealing that day and decided not to work at making it Fumes more to her liking this time.
When she let it go she wasn't thinking about the Role it played fur us or if I'd miss it. This picture made her remember. I told Momma yeah the Blankie was special because it supported the belief that ALL things are from Our Creator and we never know when they are meant to be part of Miracles have 'Creation Respect' fur all things. However even more special is how it 'helped us' Fall in Luvs yet the most Special-est is we are furramily and we Cuddlez and Plays and Zzzzz's on all kinds of Blankies FURREVER now!
Hmmm Mom has some Waterfall Eyes again. She needs me help her out with some Sandpaper Licks Kisses, which I am very accomplished with and offurr purrlentifurrly.
09/30/2023
Solomon: I am so lucky to be your Brudder Thaddeus!
Thaddeus: No Solomon, I'm lucky to be your Brudder.
Ezra: We are all lucky however I'd like to relax with my luck in that bed. Wouldn't you guys feel sooooo much more bonded here in the 'Yurt That Converts' Bed?
09/26/2023
Lady: Mom came to call me in from the rear of my Castle Propurr Furrields and she saw looking back at her a rather large wide eyed doe, right at The Steps WITHIN THE PURRIMETER WALL of The Castle Grounds and another couple Deer Furrends just outside it!!. No Mouthy Alert from me I was feeling purrty chill or else a lil stunned about their assumptive purresence; I am not sure???
Daughter: Oh goodness Ms. Lady tell me more about this. I was in The Enclosed Carport Territories yet could not see it all go down?
Lady: Mom did not get Paprazzi underway because in a panic she thought a Drawbridge Gate was open for the deer to have come in and that I had maybe run off. She started out to get me. That deer fur furrend turned took a run and jumped the Walls toward the downhill slope; an agile beauty if I do say so myself. I was just Twisty Tail Trotting around like I do. No mouthiness from me about the Deer Furrend Shenanigans in my furrield no less....wonders upon wonders.
Trinity: Ms. Lady were you considering trying to go under the Purrimeter Wall somehow to run with your new Deer Furrends?
Lady: I had not really decided Brudder Trinity. Mom was very purrleased to see me, lots of pets, luvs talk, kisses etc befur we even got back inside The Castle, like I was the Prodigal Daughter or something? I think she was Supurr thrilled that I was not Playing Chase into the Enchanted Furrest with my new Deer Furrends.
Thaddeus: Have NEVER seen a deer within the Purrimeter Walls before. Mom said a Decree needs go forth, Rudolph, Bambi and Crew need to know there is no Stable or Barn attached to this Castle Keep they can enjoy the Enchanted Woods and Furrields all day and night but we gots no shelter guys.
09/06/2023
Daughter: Goodness mercy me sakes alive.....Ms. Lady you just ran past that Scaled Furrend Slinky's Skin like no biggie when you went to Water The Furrields. Me no way and I am inside The Castle, yet I am staying right here with Mom all Day and Night on the Lap Lounge and in The Neck Niche.
08/25/2023
Lady: I like my new bed. My feline siblings are jealous. However they have all those baskets and yurts and beds too. I got my nice bone out right now so I purrolitely tell you stay outta my bed. If you do not listen I will display my naughty bone along with my teeth and tell you NO TRESPASSING BEWARE OF THE DOG!!! Got me?
08/24/2023
Ezra: Lunch time Momma?
Caleb: I wonder what it'd be like to have a martini lunch? I hear hoomans mention such on tv now and again. And there's this travel collection over the years (befur our time Brudder Ezra) shot glasses I glance at sometimes when enjoying my sun puddles; do these ever get used? I mean there's enough of them fur us to toast at lunch at least filled with some half-and-half or heavy cream......yummy!
Ezra: Yummy but not good fur our tummies. And speaking of which you have either taken in a LOT lately in your tummy or this is one of those Paparazzi Illusions or something cause you look like a 30 lb+ Panther or Lynx or such in this image; not your Squatty Short To The Ground 8.5 lb self.
08/22/2023
Daughter: Morning Momsie! Me thinks it's time fur you to Wakey Up-up.
Lady: I think Mom has been having bad dreams.
Daughter: Is it because you painted that Big Foot picture recently? Did you see Sasquatch, Mom?
Lady: Thankfurlly she hung that furreaky thing not near Pillows and Blankets Land.
Daughter: We are here to purrotect you Momsie, ain't no Yeti, Big Foot, Woodboogar whatever they call it coming around this Castle not with Ms. Lady's Furrocious Barker Well Energized.
Lady: Well I am just glad to get out on Adventures away from that Weird Fur Art.
Daughter: hmmmm you may have a point. Mom there have been other furrends you Artsied Up I like better too.
08/08/2023
Thaddeus: Hey furrends, I was feeling quite Camera Cute so I told Mom Paparazzi a few of my Whiskers and Smiles. Hope your day is A-OK.
07/28/2023
Trinity: Mom's been doing some of those painting event thingys. Looks like there's Furreathered, Scaled, and Shelled Furrends in some recent ones.
Caleb: All have to do with water lol lol. What you think about that Brudder Ezra?
Ezra: I think Mom needs to do more Fur Painting and less Fur Bathing...that is what I think.
07/28/2023
Lady: Ohhhh this fluffy, beautiful blue, soft, memory foam bed made from ALL RECYCLED materials is like floating on the sea. Did Mom buy this fur me or she? I think she is readying to attempt to curl up with me right here. My feline siblings best keep clear.
Caleb: Now Ms. Lady you know if we want to we'll dive in when you aren't looking lol.
07/28/2023
Caleb: Mom it appears Ezra has given your pinky there a touch of Cat Scratch Fever.
Thaddeus: Well ya know Brudder Prince Caleb that is what she gets when she forces Brudder Ezra to take a dip in The River and Waterfalls and Scrub-A-Dub-Dubs on top of that.
Caleb: Where is Brudder Ezra?
Thaddeus: Although he accepted Mom's Apologies he feels he still looks like a Wet Rat and is refusing Paparazzi Effurts at this time.
Caleb: Still? The Soaking and Scratch Marathon was yesterday morning? Cause I saw the Scratch Side of this Entanglement and it wasn't festuring then. I heard Mom remark last night it was hurting kind of unexpected strong as the night wore on.
Thaddeus: Hope Mom's Antibodies Kick that Fester to the Curb soon. Brudder Ezra your Razors must be a bit Funky. Lots of scratches happen here and don't give that Kind Of Attitude especially when Mom's Paws were in Sudz and Water.
Caleb: Mom should've poured that alcohol on it sooner, doused that digit in it.
07/21/2023
Ezra: Mom walks in finds 4 of 5 Brudders all cozied in various beds, so stink'in cute we are, she cannot help Paparazzi Mode.
Trinity: Yeah I have commandeered the Princess Crown Pillow that I know Ms. Lady actually likes that was originally bought for Sissy Spirit "Angel Whispurrs" The Queen and Princess though she really did not get to use it (I will remind Mom she needs get Ms. Lady another pillow of her very own for that rare time she purrfurrs floor to Pillows and Blankets Land, Recliner Ridges and Chair and Couch Crevices).
Thaddeus: Clearly Brudder Trinity is confident in his masculinity lol to grab the hot pink princess crown pillow.
Solomon: You know it's great to have Cozy Zzzzz's Camp Sites all over the Castle. Thanks Mom fur purroviding these, I think the least we can do is use them sometimes right?
Thaddeus: Is Brudder Caleb gonna take a nap?
Solomon: Nope he's doing his Kitty Olympic Training... Climbs, Zoomies, Obstacle Routes and Following His Hooman at Appurropurriately Calculated Purroximities. He'll Zzzzz's later.
07/17/2023
Dante "Guardian Angels" (Brobro): Hey furramily, Mom, wanted to remind you to mention to our furrends who may not know that the 10th of July was Dr. Lila Miller Shelter Medicine Day. We have wonderfurl furramilies in our circle of furrends so I bet many came through shelters bettered and impurroved medically because of her trailblazing veterinarian insights and guidelines fur shelters.
Daughter: Yes Mom learned about this smart vet herself from our local SPCA site a few days after Dr. Miller's recognized celebration day.
Solomon: We'd luvs to see any of our furrends who came to join their furramilies through shelters because you likely benefitted from the great work supporting medical advancing of care in shelters.
Lady: Mom said no one had responded with pictures on the local shelter site when asked fur so she shared pictures of we four that Lodged at Shelters at some point during our Journeys even though it was past the 10th when she saw it because she is always thankfurl fur those that helped us become furramily and of course because she likes to brag and show us off any oppurrtunity that comes along because she luvs us sooooo much....and I know I am good with Furront and Center as I try so hard to remind everybody The Universe Revolves Around Me.
Dante "Guardian Angel" (Brobro): Ms. Lady you sure do ha ha ha and I actually miss that about you though I'm not so sure you miss me. I am helping you out from The Heaven Side Of The Bridge even when you don't listen; not a whole lot diffurrent from when we were in The Castle together.
Lady: I miss you Brobro a lot; I am all alone with these felines to manage and I am not able to take care of Mom as well as you. I need her to do more fur me. I am not as self reliant as you were Brobro, might be my gene pool. Shhhhh don't tell anyone I admitted this to you.
07/17/2023
Ezra: Thank you so much Mom fur taking time when you got up near 5:30 am to visit The Water World Region to Treat us with Early Breakfast and to refurresh three of our Watering and Surpurrise Pans (litter pans). I already left a Surpurrise in one and Watered another. I feel so Pampurred just gonna Curl up close here on your left (Ms. Lady is as usual Guarding your Right Flank) while you rest befur changing more of our pans. I know it's hard work yet it keeps us safer to use pans at The Castle vs. Wandering The Furrields and Furrest .
07/04/2023
Mercy: I was doing some Yoga, a bit of Cat-listhenics to celebrate the big day here in the U.S.A. 4th of July!! Mom does not usually care fur her voice too much on our page videos and mutes the sound yet I told her today my voice is supurr purrecious as I cheer about being proud of my country so let it roll I say.
Independence Day is a reason to celebrate!
07/04/2023
Daughter: It's The United States Birthday today! Happy 4th of July to all our U.S.A. furrends. Hey purrlease keep your furs safe during all the day's, and gosh anymore it's a week's worth, of firecrackers and loud party noises.
07/04/2023
Daughter: I am giving Sista Mercy the 'Stink Eye'....and a low growl.
Mercy: Excuse Me lil W***h while I speak with your Mother.
Daughter: What you just call me? I am not W***h Daughter I am Empress Daughter!
Mercy: Listen W***h might I remind you I have my Daggers (claws) ready in a seconds notice if necessary and you have Cushions Ms. Empress (i.e. no claws).
Daughter: Mom Sista Mercy is threatening me! Make her stop!
Mercy: I see you have Purrched there on Mom's lap yet do not think that gives you Court Authority in this room of The Castle. THIS is MY DOMAIN and I allow the gals of The Royal Court (yourself, W***h,Empress whatever; Ms. Lady; Mom) Safe Haven, Rest and Free Roaming herein however do not sport Attitude with me young'un. I think I'm twice your age and I joined The Royal Court and came to Dwell at The Castle two years befur you. Thus enjoy my Duchess 'deeming you no threat' heart and maintain Civility becoming of Royal Court females. Plus you have your own room in The Castle too since we chicks like our Private Retreat Rooms unlike the Brudders who seem to want to always move in a Pack.
Daughter: Yeah I noticed that about The Brudders they kind of congregate like the canines do, hmmm. Maybe that's why Ms. Lady asserts as Alpha Dog with everybody and thinks it's her job to break up Kitty Wrestling Matches.
Mercy: Maybe; you just remember what I have told you. Mom keep her in her place , purrlease.
Daughter: I dunno about her Mom she seems awfully bossy.
06/25/2023
Spirit "Angel" Whispurrs: Hey furrends checking in with some chat this evening. I always am here with you yet gotta take time more often to share Whispurrs too. I noticed when Brudder Solomon talked about his Stagecoach ride and vet visit the other day he was in the smaller light blue Stagecoach that I purrty much was the only one to ride in fur most all the time, especially 2021. It fit me real purrfect and once I was not too ambulatory fur those last months I rode in it Tourist Style like an Open Top Touring Bus. I am glad Solomon was comfurtable in it and is using that Stagecoach. It hasn't been with any fur on an Adventure since I Crossed The Bridge, not just Adventure it hasn't been used at all. I am so purrleased my kind peacemaking Brudder Solomon felt good about his ride in it.
We got reminded today 4 years ago (6/24/19) My Queen Mommy and I took a major Adventure visiting a university vet in a neighboring state about my purrtentials fur radiation at the time fur my Demon Lymph Blob if it should make more trouble that radiation could help. An update footnote is that now the university vets near my home where I got my chemo treatments in '19 do radiation when needed right in my home city.
That was a long day and a long Adventure but I liked it and you know radiation did not end up being anything I needed yet it was reassuring to learn about it in case at the time. Not sure what Mom felt about the cost of that reassurance yet she did say I was worth it, all of it.
I remember My Queen Mommy sang to me on our ride. I told everybody she cannot sing good, that was not very nice of me. I luvs that she sang to me because she enjoyed it and thus so did I because I knew it was all fur me. The tone, harmony, that stuff doesn't matter, she was using the voice Our Creator gave her fur me. She always has, and still does try to use her voice in various ways all fur me and The Royal Court my siblings. I'd like to return to this conversation at a later time yet fur now I may rest on these Whispurrs. I see My Queen Mommy's eyes have Waterfalls.
I luvs you all my furrends, purrlease share luvs always.
06/25/2023
Solomon: Soooo it was that time of year again Myself Duke Solomon, Sista Dutchess Mercy and Brudder Lord Ezra Boarded Stagecoaches and went on an Adventure to the vets.
Mercy: What do you mean Adventure Fool it's more like a Trail Of Tears!!
Solomon: Sista Mercy I the Castle Peacemaker and Diplomat urge you to not be so dramatic. This Adventure in no way compares to history's story of The Trail of Tears, it was an awful event. Our event at the vet was not awful we were all healthy just got checked with our vaccines you and I. And Brudder Ezra got a dental exam, a bright cleaning and some hurtful teeths taken out. And you and I went on more Adventures out to breakfast after with Mom.
Mercy: WHATEVER SOLOMON! I DID NOT LIKE IT AT ALL. THAT IS THAT!!! I SHALL NOT DISRUPT MY SERENITY SPEAKING ON THIS TRAUMA TRAVEL ANY MORE!!!
Solomon: Uhhh ok Sista. Brudder Ezra how about you?
Ezra: What about me? I have been Loopedy Loo High As a Kite on a Cargo of Catnip purr the pain meds fur the teeths that got pulled. So I been feeling fine, more than fine, feeling might fine, I am supurr dupurr fine, I am a FINE Feline specimen if I say so myself..can't seem to sit still. What was it you asked me? Hey Mom I luvs you! My pics look fuzzy wuzzy; is that cause I am not sitting still to Paparazzi Pose or are my eyeballs still stoned? By the way more snacks purrlease don't think these missing teeth are gonna stop me.
06/25/2023
Lady: Mom sure spent a LOT of time last night while power was out and after looking for a set of keys. Where oh where did she set them down in the dark, she thought and thought? She even checked the freezer where she put away gelato (I'd like a taste of that purrlease, by the way), on the power line worker's guarantee the power would be back on very soon.
Trinity: You know how it goes Ms. Lady never on an expected timeline. Well today that Patron Saint of The Lost, St. Anthony leads Mom right to them. She set them down to respond to the furrst pet's demand once in the door. That would actually NOT be you Ms. Lady clamoring to Water The Furront Furrields (though we all know you like to remind the Whole Globe, You Deem Yourself The Center Of The Universe), but I Sir Knight Trinity's insistence to turn on a Live Screening of My Favorite Windows Network Episode (i.e. Open the window for any non-kitty language capable in the back) in My Very Favorite Live Screen Theatre, The Region of Waterfalls, Rivers, Ponds and Lakes. I had to INSIST on watching the power line Hoomans and more impurrtantly all their Flashing Lights.
Lady: An aside....those who parent felines and canines jointly will be highly capable of understanding how a kitty's impatience surmounts a doggie's expurression of needs on most all furronts. I purrsonally remain Confounded by this Reality, however I have sadly found it to be true.
Trinity; Back to the keys. So there they were resting purrty as you purrlease in the basket on the back of the tank that holds the Purrimary Equipment in one of the Olympic Events, Paper Unrolling, in which we Felines are Gold Winning Champions Many Years and Counting (toilet tissue rolls... also for those in the back not familiar with all the kitty Olympic Events).
Good ole St. Anthony comes through on his own schedule yet as always comes through.

Trinity: Mom noticed I not only look so cute catching some Zzzz's, I sounds cute too. She likes the rhythm of my kitty snores, cool.
Lady: Ohhh sooo Luvs It when Mom get a turkey sub cause there is purrlenty fur me too!
Caleb: Brudder Thaddeus let me help you out here you're looking a lil disheveled.
Thaddeus: I am your elder wiser Brudder Prince Caleb, its all about getting the Earl Thaddeus' Extra Spa Massage on. Thank you fur such relaxing grooms effurts.
Walker: Oh this is so fun! We are playing Chase The Toys fur hours!
Lady: Mom put my munchies in a bowl Brobro was eating out of fur the last few months from our hooman Grandpa T's (now historic) hooman restaurant business. She had washed it many times and of course since Brobro Crossed The Bridge, yet I absolutely would not eat out of it! I felt disresptfurl to Brobro.
Now this bowl was originally Brobro's too, yet he had let me have it fur munchies long befur he went to the Bridge. This is better!
I know I know Mom tells me I Sparred with Brobro over the other bowl and any bowl he ate out of if I was close; ok ok that was Sibling Rivalry ok, this is Sibling Respect.
Lady: Mom and I out having an Adventure! Been to an appointment together where I was welcome inside (smart business people) then we're having some lunch outside and reading a cool book about a kitty like my Brudders and Sista, by an author from our home state. Its a youth book and that is A-ok cause Mom is young at heart.
Ezra: I am kind of excited yet a lil fretted too. I am upstairs in The Castle and I am really enjoying Mom time yet these siblings popping in, here and there are making me nervous though I really held my purrsition as a neutral dude most all day in Mom's absence. Actually I should be proud I guess.
I See You..Psyche No I Don’t BUT You’d Never Know!!
Meeeoowww all, thank you for coming to visit my page and hear my story. Actually Mom is making me say the thank you thing cause you know I am the Queen and everybody wants to be me so I know you’re here to worship....oh what? Mom says I gotta stop being so Diva for a few minutes and tell you my story.
Well the first ‘miracle’ I’d like to share with all my furrrends and their families is be a survivor and your miracles will come. Doubt if you must for a moment then go for the next moment! Never ever surrender! I am a survivor. I found a Mom and now siblings who all share my survivor attitude. I understand my late grandparents instilled this same determination in my Mom, woohoo glad to be with a family that gets me and my plans! I lived with a family of hoomans and other feline siblings in a neighborhood near my Mom’s cousin. An afternoon in March 2015 a hooman youngster brother in my former family brought me to Momma’s cousin and said “My family said we have too many cats and cannot keep ‘Cookie’ anymore (btw as you note coming to my page my name’s not Cookie anymore. Don’t get me wrong I love cookies and so does Mom and everybody else here at the Ponderosa but I felt better {and I am so glad Mom was on the same page} having a new name with a new life. One with more Oomph and Oompa!) my parents are going to take her to the pound do you want her?” Mom’s cousin, my special most favorite Auntie took me in. I cozied up to her really fast. I knew God had me and was taking me on a path that would keep me safe. Auntie took me to the clinic vets to get me checked out and also to see about some care for my eyes because they weren’t doing well, they were obviously irritated and painful. The clinic vets told Auntie I was FELV+ , Auntie began to realize how difficult it might be for her to make a home for me as she had literally just lost her Mom, she was moving in with my other Auntie and Uncle and cousins Sweet Pea and Smokey who would be older kind of set in their ways step siblings who were FELV- thankfully. Auntie was also having troubles getting my eye meds applied; she loves me so much, still does see, but she was feeling overwhelmed at realizing the care I might need. So with a heavy heart Auntie asked my former ‘hooman’ family to take me back, that she could not keep me but they would not (thank goodness really I guess because they clearly didn’t care what happened to me) so she started to seek a home for me, even putting an ad out on Craigslist.
As this was happening my soon to be furrrever Mom and Daddy (well Mom’s boyfriend and he’s not anymore right now but I do still love him a lot because he was very good to me and his Mom Grandmom “D” saved me from getting away one time in a park on HHI in SC; Mom still thinks very highly of him too though its not working out for them as a couple, but I still call him Dad until further notice cause I am a cat and I do as I please; back to my story) were coming over and meeting me. As soon to be Mom and Dad were helping give me my eye medications, Daddy was mentioning how much he loved cats and would love to have one around. Mom thought she didn’t like cats as a pet hehehe, oh I am LMAO at that one. Boy was she fooling herself. Here come a ton of miracles. Somehow Mom with no experience giving medication and treating conditions in fur babies, except with eghads those classless canines, and at that had never had one needing regular care, found herself pretty skilled at getting my eye ointments applied. I remember her telling Auntie ‘ya just gotta keep at it til its done, we gotta be the boss and treat her as needed’. Well Mom’s not the boss I am, but I love her so much for doing for me and taking care of me, I’ll let her think she’s in charge cause I sure do want to keep her; Mom needs that I think for her ego. Miracle highway ahead...out of nowhere with no plan and no original inclination to having a pet kitty Mom tells Auntie “let me try to take her.” Mom has impressed me ya know. She stepped up for me taking me in not even knowing about what my health would need time and $$ wise. Just 6 months before Dad had moved in and then 5 months before they had brought Brobro (Dante) to his furrrever home because Grandmom “D” could not keep him. Mom did not know if I’d live long and how that’d be on her heart strings. She did not know if she had cat allergies (fyi Mom’ got real bad allergies of all kinds and gets shots every week for bunches of stuff since 2008 when she started with an allergist); ouch it turns out she does and is being treated to be healthy allergy wise with me and all my siblings. No one knew if I and Brobro (Dante the big ferocious {ok not really ferocious at all he’s had a tough life before Dad’s family took him in; then Mom became his furrrever Mommy; I love him a ton but don’t tell him} the doggie could get along. All these amid many other issues she thought would be stopping her from being my furrrever Mom.
She calls these all miracles. She’s right they are. I and Mom know that a path of miracles saved me from going to the pound where I would have likely lost my life as a FELV+ cat with sick eyes. The God of my and Momma’s understanding was not ready for me yet. He lets me know daily I have life yet to live; lives yet to touch. I have heard Mommy say she never imagined the joy her life would have with me in it; the lessons she would be learning everyday from me. Mom is always saying how she’s felt the Hand of my namesake, The Holy Spirit with she, I and all our family from our day one of meeting. Yep my name just came to her, as she says a Godwink, Spirit. Mom mentions she recognizes the Holy Spirit’s touch for many reasons. First and foremost I am named after The Holy Spirit because that is who brought us to one another, opened our hearts mine and Mom’s to the miracles to be. We get to share the joy and presence of The Holy Spirit every time we say my name and explain it. Plus my attitude and energy for life and toward life is gonna be found under the very definition of Spirit. And no you don’t have to think or believe like I do to enjoy being my friend and knowing me; I just hope you can feel the joy I have (and Mom too I guess and the rest of the familia) in what I share that carries my faith and ‘spirituality’ with it.
When I first came to my furrrever home by way of my most special favorite Auntie, I was battling a lot of chronic eye issues, as its turned out some of my FELV+ issues manifesting in my eyes. From March 2015 - July 2015 I dealt with multiple eye illnesses including, uveitis, herpes, toxoplasmosis, allergies to components in the eyes ointments being given and glaucoma though I still had my vision. However the glaucoma we would surmise took my vision late July 2015. This is a tough subject for Momma in a lot of ways because she has trouble forgiving my former family for not taking better care of me and treating my eyes sooner which may have helped the chronic nature of what was happening but then maybe not either. Momma sometimes feels even my FELV+ is their fault because if I was at risk from siblings in that house or being indoor/outdoor they should have had me vaccinated. I don’t judge or regret; I am trying to help Mommy be better about these defects. I am totally indoor nowadays with Mom although I try to sneak out more than anybody; Mom calls me Ms. Bust-A-Move sometimes.
Also Mom has trouble forgiving one of my vets for being lacking in clarity as well as forgiving herself for not being smarter. As the glaucoma onset happened Mom and I were traveling on an extended trip out of town and we saw a local vet just before leaving to try to know we had a good regimen treating what was happening with my eyes. Mom kind of blames herself and also the vet because she thought it was explained that the vets did something with meds to my eyes before leaving on the trip that treated the glaucoma. It was not explained well and it was not clear to Mom that the glaucoma might need ongoing treatment. Almost a week into our trip the vet called to alert Mom to the appt with the ophthalmologist specialists at a nearby veterinary university that they were referring me to and asked how my eyes looked. Well frankly they looked sh*tty they always had to that point and almost in passing said to Mom maybe she ought to get my pressures checked. Mom still (even as she writes this for me I know her she’s getting upset; I hear her crying) gets so emotional because she knows you can’t see ‘pressures’ or know just visually if glaucoma is presenting a problem or not? Mom herself has a potential for narrow angle glaucoma and had YAGG Peripheral Iridotomies done on both eyes December 2014 so she aches in her heart with upset that the vet wasn’t better and clearer, that she wasn’t clearer in mind and understanding of the needs glaucoma presented. Mom took me immediately the next day to an emergency vet in a nearby city about an hour away and my pressures were skyrocketed, she got glaucoma drops from the hooman pharmacy at a dire price being out of town etc too. Then within a day or two Mom noticed I was acting funny like I couldn’t see and she took me in to a local vet in the city we were visiting as the ER vet had suggested to check my pressures and that vet told us she thought I was already blind in one eye and we should try to insist that the closest ophthalmologist specialist who was about an hour and a half away see me to try to help me. You know my Momma went out into the parking lot with the number for the eye vet specialist from the local vet called that office told them we were on vacation that she had an emergency happening with me and we were coming now work us in. I was super impressed with Mom’s determination to try to get me help yet she doesn’t feel very good about any of it. The specialist saw me and was super kind and smart too and ethical. He told Mom I did have herpes flares in my eyes too and gave me meds for that oral and drops and since I was headed to the appt closer to home within a week at the veterinary university back home and there really wasn’t anything he could do to help the vision loss that was happening or had happened in any immediate manner other than treat the symptoms that extended work ups should be left to the the vet university near my home. No sense him doing tests they’d probably require all over again. He said I had already lost my vision in the one eye and it seemed on my way to losing the other eye. And on top of it all we learned about a year later that I had an allergy to a component in the very ointments and drops the one vet was giving me for my eyes that caused the uveitis possibly or at least worsened it which led to more complications so Mom has more fodder for her ‘not like medical peeps or medical peeps miss a lot mess up a lot’ folder. My loss of vision happened fast and Mom gets super heartsick every time she revisits the experience.
She’s more upset about my loss of vision still than I ever was. I just kind like was boom not seeing too well then not at all. I just adjusted you know used my other senses. I still enjoyed our trip and all the ones we’ve had since. Mom had to have my Aunties (and Dad at the time) help her ‘emotionally’ process what was happening to me when I lost my vision on that trip. It’s cool that she mentions need and gets help when she needs it. I need her help and my vets too though as a cat I prefer to pretend I do not need anyone’s help for anything, you know its a cat thing. Being blind hasn’t slowed me down. Every once in a while I miss a mark with my movement cause I am rushing or I run into things. Mom over frets a lot of times, sometimes she helps me out though and I know she tries her best to keep me safe. I followed my Mom everywhere when I could see and I do no different now. I am laying on the modem well napping on the modem while she types this bio for me. My late grandmom “T” (Mom’s Momma) had really limited vision for the last couple of three decades of her life really at least that’s what Mommy says and I think my loss of vision reminds my Mom a lot of her Mother touching her heart with memories of both her Mom’s strength and her challenges in vision loss. And if she thinks on it too long my vision loss reminds Mom of the precarious balance my immune system can waiver in with my FELV+ status. Mom should not go there I tell her because we are living well, we are loving strong and we will enjoy our bond every moment we shall have it. I never complain and really have nothing to complain about.
Mom gets me great care so my health doesn’t ‘hurt’ me so to speak, I have lots of adventures, lots of love, lots of great snacks (love it when Mom eats fried chicken). Mom gets real wow’d by how resilient I am. Even like when I jump real fast for the the tall chair by the island and miss because I have been running around with Brobro (Dante) all excited and slam my head into the side of the counter or slam into the counter on the one of our trips because one of Mom’s visiting friends moves the bar stool I use for access too close to the counter and my aim is off. I am pretty sure some of these experiences exist for a reason to help Mom know and feel the miracles around us. I know there’s lots around me. I hope my sharing my life with you guys helps you furrrrends know some miracles your way!! I am pretty sure its meant to be part of my path of purpose. My relationship with my siblings other than Brobro (Dante) is a little different well let’s be honest and say strained or non-existent because of my blindness but that’s ok I don’t need to cuddle with the huddled masses yearning to breath free. See I have a warm fuzzy name for Dante = Brobro notice I do not for my other five brothers. Mom calls them all ‘street warriors’ puuhhleasse they are homeless strays....yes I know remember Spirit “but for the grace of God there go I”...I really shouldn’t judge I wasn’t a stray so to speak not at that moment anyways but I was headed for the ole dirt nap if I had not been put in Mom’s path.
The amazing miracle path footnote here is I am the ‘miracle’ that brought us all (and I think we might still be growing) together as a family even though I truly could do without all of the street urchins (Geez Mom telling me again to set an example for my brothers uggh).Because of me and my life with Mom she opened her heart and home to all my tomcat siblings yeah that’s right I am calling you out boys. Dante of course does not count he is not a tomcat, he is my canine Brobro and he was actually here first, is the elder of us all and has his own miracle story too but I as a cat I cannot publicly give him credit for anything (I love you though Brobro thank you for protecting me from day one and loving me too and oh yeah for not eating me). Yeah for now Mom and I are the only ‘chicas’ in the house. Each of my brothers including Dante has their own special needs, health challenges, are animals that were written off by some by some peeps but not goodhearted hoomans like you who are interested in my life and my page and my Mom and the circles around her that help her make a home for us. All my brothers are miracles with so much to give that my family is thankful to have the experience of creating a home with. Their stories will come later as my page unfolds and I or Mom or they themselves introduce their stories to you. Miracles in how swiftly we have grown as a family and how things keep working out against expectations and odds to some extent. I am Let me just do a brief introduction now for ya’ll.
Dante came to be with Momma August 2014 when Dad and his family couldn’t really take care of Dante the way needed fully. He is kind of a big guy at least in my book.
Caleb’s gotcha day is in January 2017, alias OG Straight Outta Cherry Hill
Next came Trinity end of September 2017 alias UFC Street Fighter
Solomon’s gotcha day is the Wednesday before Thanksgiving 2017 alias The Southern Gentleman.
Next we have Thaddeus who’s Gotcha Day is January 2018
Our most recent addition Judas and yes there is room at the table even for Judas. He came to our home 2/15/18 by way of challenges to later be explored but his name correlates to the concept of ‘biting the hand that feeds’ literally. Momma is trying real hard to save his life and he’s not helping a lot but so far so good. We don’t have any real good pics of him even though he’s a really handsome guy. This one was Sunday 10/7/18 at a local church where a blessings of the animals was done. Judas went with 4 others of his siblings to the wonderful event.
I hope as my page unfolds and grows you’ll all share some of your miracles too!!! Thank you for all you do for fur babies in your worlds. We are fuuurrrever grateful!! XXOO and some catnip fun your way.
