Our Current Mewd:  Okay ... we guess.
What We're Currently Forced to Listen to:  Seqkat listening to Audio Visions on DirecTv.

Meowlo,

This is Dusty Rose.  They chose me to make the sad announcement.  First, we'll apologize, that's it's been nearly a year since we last posted.  You'll have to take that issue up with Seqkat - who hogs the computer MOST of the time.  If she's not working on it, keying on it, then she's playing games on it.  We hardly get a meow in edge wise.

Okay, back to our sad announcement.  One of us is absent from the rest of us in our physical plane here.  Sequoyah crossed over in October last year as a result of cancer.  She is on the other side with many of Seqkat's other animals, waiting for Seqkat's return.  We do see her spirit as she visits.  Her absence, really pricked Seqkat's heart.  She really had a hard time with it, and grieved heavily.  She doesn't know it, but I catch her at times, still softly crying.  It is a sad thing to witness, your owner being sad.  Especially for us cats.  We like to play and pick on our humans, all in good fun, but when your owner's spirit is down, it kind of forces us into angelic purring spirits.

So, that is our Goodbye for now to Sequoyah.  We do miss you, don't tell the other cats I said that.  I can't admit to my own mushiness.  I hope they don't read this!

And now to our Hello.  Seqkat didn't last a week, and prayerfully, and she even asked for Sequoyah's guidance, and everything must have pointed to yes, for she brought us back to five cats in the house.  She got a new kitten.  Her name is Nvnehi.  Well, actually Sequoyah's Nvnehi.  Now, I dare you to pronounce her name!   I'll help you out here.  Say it with me now, C-r-a-z-y Cat!  Yeah, that's it!  Well, okay, she is a kitten - they all go through that crazy stage.  Sequoyah, could tell you I sure went through it.  Okay, here's the REAL pronunciation.  Nuh-nay-hee.  It's Cherokee, like Sequoyah's name is.  It means Sequoyah's Path - which was Seqkat's aim, but it also means Faerie.  Sequoyah's Faerie.  That fits really well, we cats love to play with the Faeries.  Laugh if you must, but that's where we Cats are so much smarter than you - they are too - REAL!

Well, we hope you all had a Mewey Christmas, and got lots of toy mice, catnip, and had as much fun playing with the boxes, wrapping paper, and bows as we did.  In fact, we still have a few bows about the house that we still bat at!

We will TRY - all depending on getting Seqkat AWAY from the computer to blog more frequently!

Now, if you'd politely get OUT of MY chair.  I need to take a nap.  Thank mew.

Cat Naps to All,
Dusty Rose

Meowlo,

This is Jaspurr, the kitten.  Something weird happened yesterday.  This white stuff was falling out of the sky.  I sat in front of the French Doors and watched it for a good while.  I got a little nervous of what it could be, while Tigre was trying to catch it through the glass.  Needless to say, she failed with her endeavor.

The older kitties explained to me, that that strange phenomenon was called snow, and that it seems to be a natural outdoor thing.  I then remembered, I saw this stuff in December, and was lightly thrown into it on the deck!  Ooh, cold!  I quickly moved from the French Door.  The other kitties laughed and told me to relax.  The HUMANS only inaugurate the cats into the their first snow - ONCE - thank God!

TODAY.  The sun came back out.  And that caused us a mew problem.  The sun reflects off the snow, casting all this light into the house.  I'm ready to go steal Seqkat's sunglasses so I can see, as I roam around the house!  I swear none of us Cats have pupils any more.  We just have slits in our eyes!

Seqkat is happy about one thing.  Twice the French door has been left open, but Bri-Bri, (Sabria's nickname) did not sneak out.  Usually, if a HUMAN opens the door for one second, before they can say swoosh, she's out the door.  Which is kind of amazing how fast she is, considering, she's a bit on the heavy side.

HEY!  Are you calling me fat?

Uh-oh!  That was Bri-Bri.  Gotta run - she's starting to stalk me!

Kisses-N-Purrs, (I'm a kissy kitty - Seqkat loves that!)
Don Juan de Jaspurr
