We are finally done moving, and Miss Sillies and I did our first outdoor walk at our new place today! I couldn't get a decent photo of her against the National Forest behind us to save my life, she just wanted to be in the thick grass or on top of wood piles. 😂 The cats were freaking out until we let them out to explore the new place, and they settled in immediately and were SO HAPPY!!! Kinda great news for Fiona too, she was in the bedroom with everyone wandering around after the drive here, and zero issues at all. In fact, day 3 and so far so separating, although she's been staying in her cave either in the bedroom or under the vanity in the bathroom. I think Zooëy was trying to bother her overnight because I heard her growling, but otherwise she's been sleeping with us and practically touching Benny and Angie! I really hope this trend continues. 🤞 I'm so happy they love the new house. Nobody liked our old one, not even us! I think Dee made this place happen for us. I tried so hard for us last year but things didn't work out. Now here we are, surrounded by National Forest and QUIET.

Remembering Dee Wednesday... yesterday was moving day, and it was so hard to pack up her large memorial. It was also the last place we were together. 💔💔💔 I carried her pendant with me all day, helping me have the strength to push through a long stressful day. She really would have loved the new house. I thought of a lot of fun hidey holes i would have had for her, and she would have had such easy access to go outside with me. And she would have really loved the yard! 😭 I unpacked a few of her memorial pieces and sat them on the upper kitchen counter until I figure out the right shelf space. I feel so awful it hasn't been my focus just yet, i need some inspiration. I am also thinking in time it may be right to spread her ashes in the Hills behind our house. She wants to be totally set free, and I will honor her wish. Oh sweet baby doll, missing you SOOOO much right now. 💔💔💔

Miss Fiona... 💔 I still cannot believe yesterday's news, and the parallel this runs to Dee Dee. Grey & white female, dental issues (Dee's was never confirmed as her breath never stunk like Fi's), now stage 3 kidney disease (Dee was 4 when we found out), on top of HCM with a tiny trace of CHF (also not confirmed but I now believe Dee had undiagnosed heart disease). I'm also seeing Dee's last couple of months in Fiona (after the fact, as I had no idea Dee was in trouble then), and that scares me. We knew when we adopted her she was very sickly with no guarantee of a long life with us. This doesn't change my love for her. She will absolutely remain with our family, and we will do everything we can to make sure she is always happy & comfortable! I want that chance to stabilize her health and even improve it for awhile longer. We never got that with Dee, which is so hard to accept when i loved her so much! I need all of the information I can get to balance HCM with CKD, because it's a very precarious balance to help one condition while not exacerbating the other. Please let me know if you have any ideas or recommendations! I have some dietary guidelines for HCM from the company that analyzed the Echo results, and we have low phosphorus Weruva wet food that we're trying to get her to eat (she's gotten quite fussy). C'mon Fiona, you've got this. 🙏🙏🙏

I don't know how to write this one... 😞 No dental for Fiona today. Upon checking her bloodwork, they found her kidney value is at 4.7 and her BUN 52. This is in addition to her HCM heart disease. In other words.... we are in a very similar spot as we were with Dee in December (that I had no clue about). We are at a very delicate spot where it is too risky today to do surgery. After talking out all the options, we've decided to start her on Benazopril to lower blood pressure, and will help protect her heart & kidneys. We will work on getting her kidney level down/stabilized, and then recheck her bloodwork in 45 days, to see if we are safe to do the dental then. Dental disease can cause or exacerbate kidney & heart issues, or is a standalone issue. The problem we have right now is being able to give her fluids during surgery will be harder on the heart & kidneys. We are hoping to get her stabilized with medications now for a later dental, or we will work on her quality of life and what we can do. She's only 8 years old. I don't know if we are fighting genetics or what? I feel some of this may be her broken heart from her owner's passing, and stress living with the Tornadoes. 😞 We knew when we adopted her that Fiona may or may not have a long life with us, but we'd do the best we could to give her a loving family vs the shelter. I need to be strong for Fiona. This year just doesn't stop kicking me hard in many ways... Oh sweetie Fiona, we've got this...

Dropped Fiona off for her dental this morning! It always makes me so incredibly anxious, as there is always a small chance of something happening. She's really in the best hands possible for the procedure. We did the echo so they know which anesthesia drugs to use, and they run bloodwork just before. I know Dee is watching out for her. There were sun rays by the clinic as we drove there, and a bunny greeted us as we pulled onto the street. I just want Fi to feel better, I know her bad teeth are bothering her eventually when she's eating. We are praying for a quick & easy procedure, and she's back home with us again shortly! 🙏🙏🙏 🐾

Its Rainbow Bridge Remembrance Day... I never wanted to be able to post on these days 💔💔💔 Oh my precious Dee Dee, there are no words for how much I miss you 💔💔💔 Last night when I was looking up at the stars saying goodnight to her, suddenly there was a white streak across the sky! I wear a small shooting star charm in memory of her on my Amazonite necklace. So I know it was Dee, reassuring me everything is ok and I am on the right path (something I question a lot lately), to keep going! I asked her for a sign tonight for a question I had, and as soon as I said it, a black bird flew across the sky right above me! And this was like 9:30p when birds are normally at rest. That answer should make me feel better... she really deserved so much better than what she got. My life, my love, my forever soulmate... 💔💔💔💔💔💔

Remembering Dee Wednesday... I miss these moments so incredibly much, cuddling on the couch with Dee and Angie. Its been another really hard week without her. I was going to sell off this couch for a different one, and I found myself unable to. Dee loved it especially because it has electric footstools, which i used to help her up and down off the couch with her mobility issues. This couch served as a gathering place for our happy family. This is the first move without Dee since 2014. I also need to find a new spot for her memorial. Keeping that couch... she doesn't need it anymore and its silly to hang onto it for the memories. Does it ever get any easier without our soul cats? Looking at her face in these photos feels like I can still reach out and pet her. I really wish i could. I loved her so incredibly much, but that love didn't save her. Oh my little Mosquito, you deserved so much better than you were given. I miss you horribly... til we meet again... 💔💔💔

Cutie pie Fiona says hello!! She goes in this coming Friday for her dental work. I am SO scared for her surgery, not only because it can be risky, but especially with her HCM. I think her teeth are really bothering her though, we think its why she gets so twitchy at times. I've had tooth issues before, and I can only imagine how she feels. Our vet is confident, and I do trust him. I just know with any procedure there's always a risk... and that is Fiona's choice... she really misses her mama so much despite all of the love we give her. I understand that broken heart all too well when our loved ones pass... 😞

And I am SO sorry I've been so quiet! We are in crunch time trying to pack & move this coming weekend. I have a really cool surprise for the cats in the new space, i picked up a changing table I'm converting to bunk beds for them! 🙀 Stay tuned, I'll post pics of the transformation in the coming weeks!

Remembering Dee Wednesday... we really were two peas in a pod! I've never felt such synchronization with an animal before. We could just look at each other, I'd widen my eyes at her, and she'd squint and squeak back at me. We had our own thing going on. I wish we took alot more time to ham it up in front of the camera together like this, for these are the moments that really live on in your memory after they're no longer here (physically). Hugging you so tightly tonight in my memory, my sweet little lady kitten. Til we meet again 💔💔💔

Its the Angies blur! 😹 I gave Angie Cosequin last evening with her dinner, and a few hours later when I was getting ready for bed, she was bouncing all over her catnip toys like a kitten! I was so relieved to see that! She also was more animated today and joined me on the couch for a brief cuddle (too warm for a full cuddle!). I'll make sure to add in regular cosequin and vitamin supplements to her diet, and see if that helps her feel better. She is such a precious little cutie pie. 💖

My sweet little Angel girl. 💖 I'm so worried about her right now. She's 18 and she's been having more issues lately. I'm not sure if the Tornadoes are stalking her in places I don't see, but I've caught her growling and screaming on the floor like they're going after her, but I don't see them around. This only happens in the middle of the night. And yesterday for the second time lately, she fell out of the bed at the window. I found her standing dazed on the floor all poofy, food and bed scattered around her. She was limping a bit last night. She's not purring as much, sometimes she seems just a little out of it, and some days she's a bit bouncy, both feeling feisty and sometimes looking restless. Her appetite hasn't been great over the last year years especially but she still seems happy. I know they all go through this as they age. I'm keeping her comfortable as I can, giving her lots of extra love. I just worry our time together is coming to an end. What are your experiences in this situation? Any tips for me to help her better? Any supplements or special food? Benny too, I know his HCM is progressing. I'm having a hard time with all the changes, going from one big happy feline family to losing members now. I wish we had more time for new happy memories. There really haven't been any since we moved to this house in '23... with Benny's stroke last year and then losing Dee 6 months later... and I worry Angie will make the move with us now... 💔

The Tornadoes are really doing a good job of helping me pack up the house! Well, they call it "helping", I call it, "get off that box, it need it, you silly little buttseed!" 😂 We are officially moving at the end of the month, and are expecting to be closing on the new home tomorrow. Its been quite the journey (and heartburn!) trying to find a new home after having to back out of the original home due to some crazy circumstances. We found a really cool home out of state that was absolutely purrfect for the cats... but ended up having to go with the one that's 1/2 hour west of here... right next to the National Forest! The cats will get at least one fun catio, if not two. Its not a dream home by any means and we have to downsize a little. The market is so horrible and our timeline was too short to wait it out any longer. The National Forest is so gorgeous though, and there will be lots of wildlife for them to watch! I hope between that and carefully setting up the space, that they're all really happy. We'll also try adding onto the house as we can for extra space. As for the cat business... this will be my last week doing Etsy orders until further notice! I'm not sure how long I'll be taking off for the move, and then revamping the shop. I plan on cutting some things way down, removing others, fabric rotation, and streamlining what remains. The move puts me in best position for my art, BUT I also like seeing our kitty customers happy. We will make it work! 😉
