We just wanted to wish all of our human and kitty friends a Happy New Year! We start our 3 day drive back to Los Angeles from Nashville, Tennessee tomorrow! Mom has the car packed and ready to go! We might not be able to visit your blogs until we get back on DSaturday! But we wanted all of our friends to know that we wish them a safe an happy New Year!

Tuesday Lounging in Nashville

We are having a fantastic kitty time visiting granny and grandpa in Nashville! We have lots of kitty TV opportunities! a bird inside and birds and squirrels outside! We like coming to visit! We have two cousins, Hamish and Muffie, who don't really pay attention to us! We don't know if they really like us coming to visit! They just stay in their room! Muffie is 19 so she sleeps alot and Hamish loves to curl up on out Granny's pillow!

We stay in mom's room and also hang out in the laundry room/sunroom! That's where the best kitty TV opportunities exist! There are alot of birds and squirrels in the nashville yard! We will miss all of this when we get piled back into the car for our 3 day drive back to California!

Road trip to Tennessee......

Those two were caught sleeping with the enemy. Blossom was caught snuggling up to "the dog" on day #1 and 3 Perf was caught snuggling up to "the dog" on day #2. I will not be caught snuggling with the dog-just mom gets snuggles!

Purrs,

Happy Holidays!

Make a Smilebox greeting

Happy Holidays from all of us!!

A Christmas gift from a doggie!

Our doggie, Velcro, has a bloggie as well. She has lots of doggie friends! Well, today, one of her doggie friends, Norwood, sent her a Christmas gift! But Norwood didn't forget US!! He sent us yummy Temptations! We LOVE Temptations! We've even been caught eating the package to get to them! We've never met Norwood-but we think he's a pretty special doggie for including us in the Christmas pressie! Thanks Norwood!

The tests of our stolen blood are back

Both Perfy and I had our blood stolen this week! Our vet called tonight. Mom's stoopid phone didn't ring so all Mom got was a message but she'll talk to our vet on Monday. Our stolen blood told our vet many things.

My (Kodak) insulin has been increased to 3 units 2x a day! I had a Fructosamine test yesterday and obviously the numbers weren't what our vet was hoping for so she upped my insulin from 2 units 2x a day to 3 units 2x a day!

Perf's stolen blood results are mostly back. Our vet is still waiting for a T4 and another test. But she said that the results look good but that there are subtle changes. She said if the T4 comes back Perfy could have Hyperthyroidism. that might explain his weightloss(he's lost 4 lbs since march) and why he's sleeping under the covers with Mom!

Our vet will be in the office on Monday and mom is supposed to call her then...but I've already started getting my 3units of insulin!

Thursday Lounging

Hi friends. I just got out from the vet. I had blood stolen so my fructosamine level could be checked for my diabetes! Mom let's me lounge afterwards!

My brudder, 3 Perf, was at the vet yesterday. Mom said he wade horrible noises when they stole his blood! I just let them take it but Perf has to have a muzzle put on and has to be held down by 2 vet techs! I'm the good kitty at the vet-they all LOVE me! But Perf has "CAUTION!!!" On his chart! It's amazing how different brudders can be!

Tuesday Toes....

Mom signed up to run the Carlsbad Half Marathon for some doggy charity

Mom has signed up and will be running the Carlsbad Half Marathon again this year for one of their official charities, Labrador Rescuers. It's a doggie charity-they don't seem to have cat charities at these running events so I guess we'll have to support a doggy charity! She's set up her donation page and if you'd like to donate to help these Labradors find forever homes here is the link:

http://www.active.com/donate/labrescuers2010/PSpragu3

We can't run it with her...why would we want to run? But mom saved us all-so we support her wanting to help doggies that don't have a home.

Please help if you can. Any amount will help mom reach her goal and help these doggies find a forever home and help them if they are sick!

Remember, you donation is tax deductible-whatever that means!

Meow,

Kodak, 3 Perf and Blossom

An orange morning

Mom says it's always an orange morning, every morning! I always sleep at mom's head. When her alarm goes off, I'm right there, with the dog, to help her wake up!

Vet time for Blossom

Today, mom took me out all by myself in the car! We went to the v-e-t.....mom said I was due a yearly exam and a booster vaccine. I wasn't too happy about being there but I had mom with me so I felt safe!

The vet said I looked really good! Clean ears, healthy coat and I'm a perfect weight!!

Sink time...

Kodak's body temp must be warm for he was found lounging in mom's bathroom sink! His back legs run warm-and he pulls the fur off his legs because of this. Mom will be making another call to the vet. Maybe he can start accupuncture again!

9/11 and Happy Birthday Mom

Today we remember and honor the 2755 people who lost their lives 8 years ago...and my mom. It's her birthday to day!

Lazy Lounging Labor Day

Kodak has been feeling warm! Mom doesn't know if it's diabetes or something else but he LOVES to lie on the cool bathroom floor!

His insulin has been increase to 2 units twice a day and mom thinks he's beginning to act more like himself!! And his tummy and legs haven't been as hot as they had! We hope he starts to cool down a bit! But the floor is always there if he needs it!

Kodak and his Blood Work Numbers

Mom just wanted to update all our furry friends on Kodak's diabetes. He was taken to the vet on Saturday because mom thought he wasn't "quite right." He's been acting a bit lethargic, he's been chewing the fur off his leg again, he's been radiating heat from his lower legs and abdomen and drinking more water. Our vet checked him out and stole his blood!!

Mom got the results of Kodak's stolen blood today. Our vet said Kodak's red and white blood cells all look good. His Kidney numbers are good as is his liver numbers and thyroid numbers. But as mom and the vet thought, his blood glucose levels are elevated.

His blood was stolen in April as well for these tests and mom wanted to share the differences:

April 2009 Aug 29 2009

Fructosamine 350 552
Blood Glucose 178 311
Glucose in Urine 0 2+



So Kodak will be getting more insulin. Our vet has increased his insulin to 2 units twice a day....mom hopes this makes Kodak feel better!

Sunday Slumber

It's been super hot here in Southern California this week! Mom says we've been breaking heat records! The other day it was 103 F...way too hot! But wonderful mom hooked up the cooling box in her bedroom! So now we have a cool room to escape to when the house gets to hot! Mom says it's going to start cooling off! We sure do hope so! We don't like all this HOT and all the SMOKE from the fires that are burning north of us! Actually, mom says we've been sur lucky that the wind is blowing the smoke away from us!!

So, we'll just sleep! And when we get too hot we'll go into mom's bedroom where the cooling box is and sleep on mom's bed!!

Meow!

Happy 4th of July

Happy 4th to all our kitty and doggie friends! Mom has been home for 2 days! She had a 3 day weekend and we've loved it! We've been snuggling with her as much as possible!

Mom doesn't have a lot of time during the week! We want her to help us visit our friends-but she doesn't even turn on her hooman computer! So we're super sorry if we haven't come by to visit! Mom's work really occupies way too much of her time!
