LITTLE BIT TOOTHY

Me
I thought I would let you into a secret place where none of you have ever seen before.  Our mouths.  It's a little undignified as we are thrust on Momma's lap and mouths held ajar, whilst ManSlave focused in our sharps.  So, why has this come about?  Well, our Vet Simon is writing a section on 'dental care' for this years RexPress Magazine that Momma edits and the discussion started about the state of my mouth.  I mean, it's OK, my breath is fresh and clean. The Parentals know this because I constantly lick their arms and rasp off a layer of skin, just to let them know I love them and it doesn't stink afterwards. Also, when I kiss up close and rub my inner lip on Momma's nose, that doesn't smell either! 

But it's my teeth that have raised eyebrows over the years as the staining is quite severe. This was from a drug called Oxytetracycline that was administered in an emergency after my booster injections, which basically gave me a dose of cat flu. So this was their remedy, a dose of this awful stuff.  Momma tried to ask what it was they were giving me, but the injection went in with out a word and Momma's heart fell as she knew exactly what it was going to do, make me look like a life long smoker.  But I have to say that my prehension and mastication has not been affected, so that's good when I am chomping my Noms!

Lillibet, being only a babe of 19 months, has beautiful teeth and has always enjoyed good kibble since she was big enough to eat kibble.  Her teeth are sparkly and her Mother Faith at a 3yr old still has good teeth too, but she has always had a little upper dental scaling as she much prefers to munch her kibble on the left side only and she has a sweet tooth. When her and Lillibet meow, they blind you with their flashing mouths and especially Lillibet, she seems to have a huge mouth, full of bright sharps, for such a dainty cat.  

We are all very lucky to still have our incisors and all our mouths are level and straight. I am proud of my tiny little teeth because some in my family have lost theirs, opting for the cuteness of a peeping tongue. The only thing that urks me about our teeth, is that we have these four big ones and they are called canines....canines I tell you. It's wrong - we are ALL CAT - why are they not called FELINES????

A Little Bit Of Me

Firstly, I would like to wish all my followers a very Happy Easter Sunday and that means ROAST something.  Today was a chook of non heritage, a white meat breeder instead of our usual black leg, but non the less a free range one.  Of course, I Yawped and Yawped until Momma gave in and trimmed fresh juicy bits off for all three of us and fed us all together in a little trio. 

I felt good today on my new meds and thought I could steal a little bit from Lillibet, but she was having none of that and promptly Thwakked me on my head and told me to back off. Faith wondered what all the fuss was about and looked up from her chicken, that's when my paw came out and swiped a piece right from under her sniffer.  Momma poked me in my belly and I did a little hiss at her.  That ensued in a mad chase around the house with me in the lead and then I fell on the bed upstairs and showed my vulnerable undersides for copious amounts of kissing.  When I was suitably recharge with kisses, I raced about the house Yawping and rounding up the CatWomen and making them chase me, the I turned and Thwakked them, Yawped and ran away... as usual, they follow me to the ends of the earth.

I can honestly say that after feeling as sick as a cat on Monday and had me a quickie visit with Simon and he used the FURMOMETER, I decide that I had better feel 100% better or THAT was going to be a regular occurrence!  I was too shocked even to complain that he had done that when Momma said he wouldn't - but sick is sick and FURMOMETERS are needed in such cases.  However, it was concluded that it is a transient side effect of the Atopica medication and I am to revisit in a few weeks to see about reducing the dose and my sickness.

I do feel more like my old self. The naughty, boisterous one! The one who gets into all sorts of trouble and Thwakking competitions and chasing and yawping as well as long purr fests and snuggles with Momma.  I have even been sitting on ManSlave and showing him some love - he is so taken aback that he thinks it's because I love him. He is useful and Momma has been away a few days with Grand Mew Mew and I needed a lap to sit on!

Caught Red Pawed

Caught in broad daylight, the cereal stealer. This little beast really thinks she takes the biscuit when it comes to not getting caught (usually) however, there are thins that give away who the culprits are in the theft of items from the kitchen and today it was Lillibet that managed to dislodge the box from the worktop - which I have to add, was behind a series of plastic boxes and a very heavy pestle and morta. Yep, she is the queen of fury when she wants something to snack on in the night.  See, i am not the only one who steals around here, and at least mine is usually a quick swipe and go. Hers are calculated missions that benefit everyone... IF you like cereal!

Now, it's Lillibet that releases the the boxes and rips them apart, but just there, so that you don't miss the signs are tell tale Faith nibbles.  The frayed edges of the boxes and the tiny pieces of paper are all Faith's doing. She would rather this that the contents, unless the contents are sweet. The shrede wheat wasn't really that interesting a meal as it contains no added sugar and it's full of vitamins - far too healthy for us!

Mini Cats

The Mini Cats were visiting the UK on their way to Arcachon from Cork. It's quite a journey for them but they are both as bold as brass and they have amazing family who love them so much.  Jamie is just huge now and weighs in at a tremendous 5.5K and let me tell you, he makes me look tiny!  He is solid muscle and all ripples and soft fur, he has paws like a panther and such a sweet nature and Eva calls him 'boy' with such love and devotion.  Jaz is just beautiful, earning her name of 'tiny beauty' and rides around on Davids shoulders and is such a determined young lady and so in love with her ManSlave!  

Faith & Lillibet wanted to travel out and pay a visit to their family, but Momma put her foot down as she only had the two seater to drive and it was too small and noisy for the few hours it would take to meet up. But I am sure in time the 'Madhatters' will meet the other half of the family again.  We are so grateful that Eva & David take time out to contact Momma and meet up with her so she can cuddle the babies and give Faith updates.  Eva brought us lovely little blankies which are very useful for keeping the cream bedding clean. She is so thoughtful.  When the parentals went out to Arcachon last Summer to visit the Mini Cats, Eva said she wanted a painting of Jaz and Jamie.  Momma painted them on the biggest sand dune in Europe and it was the very one that David had driven them all out to see. Such lovely memories and a perfect setting with Arcachon bay just behind them.

Jaz and Jamie are the luckiest kittens in the whole world. They get to travel all over Europe and love every second of it. Such well behaved and well trained children Faith has - she is very very proud of her eldest Daughter and Son.  Lillibet is a little envious that her Big Sister & Brother have all the fun, but she does send them toys occasionally and she wears her Royal Purple collar to match her siblings and closes her eyes and imagines she is traveling along with them.

Going Bald

10/4/2014

I love a good smooch, especially with Momma.  She completes my World as I do hers. We are a team and a good partnership, it's just ashame sometimes that ManSlave is the head of the Pride, because I could quite easily take his place in a flash.

Well, as you can see, I am feeling a bit more sprightly and had me a little bath in my special anti-dandruff shampoo, the only down side is, is it's pink! Eeeek, I hate pink, that's for girls.  But none the less, it has made me feel good again and quite kissable it seems. Just the other day my skin hurt so much I couldn't bear to be touched and even to to the extent of hissing at everyone. I never hiss unless it's for a very very good reason, like a FURMOMETER! But, you see, it has been embarrassing to say the least. The little fur I already had, that covered my man selection, has dropped out. This has left me totally naked and feeling vulnerable around the nether regions. Who would guess that I could lose even more fur than I already don't have?

Momma said it makes me even more kissable, but I am not so sure. I like my furry boots and tail and fluffy face and my peach appeal.  If I was meant to be a Sphynx I wouldn't mind, but I am a very unique Devon Rex thank you very much and would like to add, that WHEN my fur grows back, it will be with a vengeance. I might have to resort to using caffine shampoo and boot polish to give me the desired effect and comb over everything I have to make it look like I am 'back in town'. Although, some of the ladies say that bald is beautiful - Momma just says I am beautiful, so I guess that's good enough for me!

LilliLongLegs Branding

7/4/2014

Today, Momma took some of the LilliLongLegs Branded Bugs & Beans to a local show where she met up with Roy & Nicola Lovell from Crystal Clear Pet Products who have very kindly taken on the brand for their huge mobile stall.

This hardworking couple are big supporters of new businesses and like the unique and the different and get just as excited about Lillibet's product as she does.  We are very happy that the Crystal Clear team will be the sole providers of LilliLongLegs products in the arena of cat shows as this year, Maystar Design is growing in other directions and we can't be in two places at once and with these guys behind us we are feeling a good buzz.

Lillibet would also like to announce that there will be some new products winging their way from Rita's organic Catnip Farm in Kentucky and they are at final design stages now. Always with a play on words, the new toys should fill the gap that the bugs and beans don't fill and some will come with crinkle paper inside and some will have a bell.  It's exciting times at Maystar Design and the LilliLongLegs brand is in the process of being Trade Marked because we don't want any copycats, do we!

Woe is Me

2/4/2014

1 Comment

 
I hate being off coulour and I have had my fair share of it lately.  It's just not good.  Last week my immune system decided that it didn't like me very much and gave me a gigantic sniffer to contend with and now this is the aftermath - a crusty, sore, weeping head, face and neck. My paws have taken a beating too with tender pads and crusty bits inbetween. I don't feel like washing anywhere, I hurt. Where Momma usually plants her kisser on my head, I hurt and duck a little in expected pain. The black bit on the top of my head is lumpy and raised and is no good for kissing.

I am to accompany Faith to see Simon the Vet. Faith has been under the weather - she has never ha a sick day in her life, but seems to just not be herself at all. It's all quite worrying really because on one paw the vets say I am not shedding any virus type things and on another paw Faith is peeky. Oh the shame this crustiness is bringing on the family. Faith isn't helping matters as everytime she goes to the vets, she is 'faking' a temperature - I mean, seriously, as if there isn't enough going on already and she has to up her body heat to stupid amounts making everyone think she is going to pop her clogs. She has had more FURMOMETERES this week than I have had in a life time!  ManSlave purchase a new one and Momma tested her at home - normal. What is going on?  Me thinks she is so stressed with me being out of sorts and hissing and thwakking everyone because I feel so hurty, that she has wound herself up. On top of this, the Parentals are decorating in the house and that is exacerbating everyones conditions.

Well, at least with this sort of thing - I don't need a FURMOMETER and anyone that thinks I do will have another thing coming!
