Perfect Thursday!

Posted on July 16, 2015 by onespoiledcat

It’s a perfectly perfect day……. !

The weather lady has been teasing us since last week that we’d have two perfect days this week……..today and tomorrow. So far so good with her prediction (although she’s often wrong!)……this is going to be a beautiful day and I think Mom and I will have some good “outside/frontporch/yard” time together. Dad is going flying – he likes flying on PERFECT days.

I’m hoping for a PERFECT report from my vet on the blood work he did Tuesday too. I had my 4 months checkup for my hyperthyroidism. Mom’s hoping that my pills are doing the trick. Since I’m so DIFFICULT about taking my pill, if I’m still in good range then it’s OK if I’m a pain in the tushie sometimes about taking it!

Sam enjoying the front porch on a pretty fall day

How could she call such a PRECIOUS ginger kitty a “pain in the tushie” ??

My PERFECT Thursday is even starting out PERFECTLY. Mom promised me bacon this morning – WHAT?????? Bacon on a Thursday? Sure! Why not! I deserve a special treat once in a while…..after all I’m Mom’s PERFECT little darling!

Hugs and hope you have a PERFECT day too!

Love, Sammy the PURRRFECT!

Will the REAL purrrfect ginger kitty please raise your paw!

I hope for good news from the vet, Sammy and I hope after you got the results there is another big piece of bacon for you. I will watch the sky now, maybe I can wave at your dad… can he wave with a wing when he is over my back yard? we currently have a lot of flying machines on the sky, maybe today we have a worldwide fly day?

  Dad does wave with his wings when he’s over our house and if we know ABOUT when we might see him, we try to be in the yard to wave back! Is the weather perfect there? Might be why you have a lot of planes over your house – in perfect weather we have a lot here too. There are two small airports nearby.

Hi Sammy,
I hope your tests come all out positive. But it might still be the medication after all, mightn’t it? I hope you’ll find some way to more easily take it.
Thanks for your concern and good wishes for our little Chiquita. Gladly she seems to be fine again. Her medication [she takes it easily with KITTY! pill pockets or grilled chicken] seems to have helped. She’s eating regularly again, though she has developed a liking for barbequed chicken! That gourmet doggie! 😉 Well, so far we’ve indulged her, as she is recovering still. We’ll see how it’ll go, though, with some different kind of food.
Have a great day, and hopefully more gorgeous weather,
Pit

  Hi Mr. Pit. Well, my doc called to say my thyroid level is slightly high but he said he wasn’t worried for now. He said my heart murmer wasn’t any worse but if I’d shown any signs of stress he would have suggested we try transdermal meds. He just wants Mom to continue finding things that I’ll take my pill in REGULARLY. I won’t eat pill pockets or pill paste but I do love baby food so Mom has tried several kinds and I’ve been BETTER about taking my pill. We’ll just keep on “keepin’ on” ! I’m glad Chiquita is better – maybe both of us can keep taking our pills and hang in there for a long time to come – someone needs to keep an eye on you humans!

    Hi Sammy,
    Glad to hear you’re doing (fairly) well. So you’re into baby food where Chiquita is into barbecued chicken. Exquisite taste you two have! 😉 But if it helps to get the medicine down, it’s fine.
    I sure hope that both you and Chiquita will be around for a long time to come to have an eye on us. Who else would be keeping us humans out of mischief?! 😉
    Take best of care,
    Pit

  Well blood work showed my thyroid level to be a bit high but my doc says that’s probably because I’m so stubborn about taking the pill every day. He told Mom to try harder (as if she could try any harder than she does) to get me to take it. He said that I looked “great” when he’d seen me and if I’d looked sick he would be concerned but he isn’t for now. Recheck in 4 months and Mom has to try to get me to take the pill more than I do now. Mom really tries her BEST – but maybe I should be a little more COOPERATIVE!
