Tuxie Tuesday with Cousin Trooper

Mom had this post scheduled for Cousin Trooper before Auntie El left for the human Bridge.  We hope you don't mind us still posting it.  Cousin Trooper really appreciated all of the purrs and prayers the Cat Blogosphere sent to him and to Auntie El.

Hi furriends, Cousin Trooper here.

I'm just hanging out doing some window wiffin'

.

The Furkids mom did a good job at my Mom's funeral yesterday.  We will post the video later this week.  Thanks to all who purred and prayed for her yesterday.  She said my Mom was the Angel on her shoulder.

Tuxie Toes Tuesday with Cousin Trooper

I'm trying to snooze here.....sheesh....what's the fixation with my toes?  Oh yeah....they are super cute!!

I wanted to update you on my Mom.  She's not doing very well at all.  There is a hospital bed here now and she's sleeping most of the time.  I try to stay as close to her as I can.  I'm afraid she's going to be leaving me soon and that makes me sad.  Please keep purring and praying for her.

This post was pre-done over the weekend.  My heart is hurting because my Mom went to the human Bridge yesterday at 2:05.  I will miss her very much.  The Furkids Mom let me see her and told me that everything would be okay.  Thank you all for your purrs and prayers over these last months.  My Mom would always smile when the Furkids Mom would show her your comments.  The Furkids Mom is hurting a lot now too, she was friends with my Mom for over 20 years.

Isn't this a beautiful graphic that Ann from Zoolatry made?  My Mom was so happy when she got to meet Ann and Maggy and Zoey.

I'll be okay.....I actually have a new, very wonderful home with a good friend of my Mom's and will be an only cat.  I was going to go with the Furkids but this is even better.

The Furkids wanted to let you know that their Mom knew things were happening fast and pre-planned lots of blog posts.  They may not visit a lot in the next few days, but they thank you all for your support.

Hi everyone, Cousin Trooper here.  I'm practicing my Catga poses....how am I doing?

Thanks for the purrs and prayers for my Mom.  She had a really rough week which included catching the stomach flu!  We hope that nasty bug is gone now and that the adjustments in her pain meds will help her feel better.

Thanks for the purrs and prayers for my Mom....they really are helping!!!

Hi furriends, Cousin Trooper here.....have you missed me???  With so much going on lately, I haven't been able to visit with you.  Wasn't the big wedding bash great?  I'm so happy for Sniffie and Nimbus!

I thought you might like an update on my Mom.  She's had a really rough time of it lately.  Her blood count went super low and she had to have another transfusion.  She's really down and I do my best to keep her spirits up and make her smile.  Please keep her in your purrs and prayers.  I know I ask for this a lot, but I love my Mom and want to see her better.

Thanks!

Hi everyone, Cousin Trooper here.  I know you've missed my handsome ManCatlyness the last few weeks and thought I would share this pic of me in my cat tree.

Happy Birthday Auntie El

Today is Auntie El's Birthday!  It's a "special" birthday but we're not saying which one!

Cousin Trooper wants to wish his Mom (our Auntie El) a VERY Happy Birthday! He even poured her a nice glass of espresso vodka to celebrate!

We're wishing Auntie El a super birthday too....

Happy Birthday Auntie El! We Love you!!  We hope this year brings you good health and happiness!!
Tonight Mom is making Auntie El's special birthday dinner...Osso Buco.  Tomorrow there is a big party at Auntie El's house!  

Let the Party Begin!!!

ManCat Monday with Cousin Trooper

Well it's ManCat Monday again and I'm here to ask for purrs and prayers for my Mom. She'll be getting her port today and then will be having chemo again on Wednesday.  

If you biggify and look closely, you can see two of me in this picture.  Two of me...two requests...yep...that works!!

Thanks,

Cousin Trooper

Hi everyone, Cousin Trooper here.  I thought I would give you an update on my Mom.  She's having a port put in this week to make her chemo and blood draws easier.  We hope she only has a couple more chemos but we know the weekly blood draws will go on for a while.  She still has a lot of fatigue but I do my best to help her.  We play chase the bug and fetch the teaser wand.  It's a lot of fun!  Sometimes we just nap together.  I make sure she gets exercise by begging for my treats promptly (or a bit earlier!) at 5pm.

I'm a handsome ManCat!

Thanks for all of your purrs and prayers!  I appreciate them and so does my Mom!!

Mini ManCat Monday with Raz

It sure is nice having friends!  Mom says this guy is a snowman?  Huh?  What's snow????? 

Cousin Trooper says thanks for all the purrs and prayers for his Mom.  She has bloodwork again today and we hope the transfusion helped bring up her levels (even though the chemo tears them back down).

ManCat Monday with Cousin Trooper

Oh gee...is it Monday again?  I feel like I should go back to bed.  Before I do, please remember my Mom in your prayers and purrs today.  She is having chemo #5 today.   

Thanks!  We know your purrs and prayers are working!

Please stop by the Tabby Cat Club today.  Raz is hosting a great event...What's Your Favorite Toy?  It's also his one month Gotchaversary!!

Hi furriends, Cousin Trooper here.

Mom did okay with her chemo last week!  She's very, very tired but she wanted me to tell you all how much she appreciates your purrs and prayers.  She has Labs again today (hey....aren't labs woofies????) and plans on resting up for Turkey Day.

I'm not so sure....this guy looks a little tough!!

ManCat Monday with Cousin Trooper

UPDATE.....My Mom's blood wasn't up to where they would like it, but it didn't go down any either so NO TRANSFUSION!  Thanks for the purrs and prayers.  We hope it goes up enough for chemo next week.  

I sure hope I'm not asking for too many purrs and prayers but it's Monday again and we really need a good blood report for my Mom today.  We don't want her to need a transfusion.  Please send her purrs and prayers for a good blood count.  I'm going to wait at the door until I see her!

ManCat Monday with Cousin Trooper

UPDATE FROM COUSIN TROOPER:  Well, this week my Mom's blood count wasn't too good.  Her red count is 8.2 down from 9.7 last week.  If it drops below 8 by next week, she'll need a transfusion. Please send out your best blood building purrs and prayers for her.  Thanks, Cousin Trooper

Hi there....Cousin Trooper here.  Guess what today is?  Yep....ManCat Monday but it's also Lab/blood work day for my Mom again.   Please keep her in your purrs and prayers....I'll share my sunpuddle with you!!!

We will pay all expenses to bring the cat and you here to Baltimore.  With a very generous bonus for your time and discomfort. Call Dee @ 443-527-9226.

Our little girl is running out of options.
Thank you!

Hi effuryone...Cousin Trooper here.

I'm giving you one of my super cute looks because I have a favor to ask.  My Mom goes for her labwork/doctor visit today.  She's had a really hard week since the chemo treatment last Monday and I'm asking for purrs and prayers for  a good blood count and for the bad pains to go away.

Am I cute enough??

Moms are special and a request for purrs and prayers

Mom saw this video of FB and it made her all leaky eyed.  We agree - That's What Moms Do!!  Cousin Trooper agrees!!

  

Cousin Trooper would like to ask you to send some purrs and healing prayers for his Mom.  She is starting chemo again today.  We're purring that this time it is easier and the nasty "c" goes away for good.

ManCat Monday and the O-Lympics

Cousin Trooper says chin scritches from his Mom and checking out the O-Lympics both make Monday a better day!
