Take time to smell the flowers...

Taking time to smell the flowers.....

                                              The bees are loving the flowers
                                             They climb right inside..
                                         It has been very rainy and lots of thunder storms but when the sun comes out the flowers are really lovely.. Mum is on nights at the moment so its either work or bed but days off coming soon.. Hope you are all ok.. Love and hugs GJ xx

Something was here for sure.......

            Hello everyone. Thank you for all the helpful comments about the old reader. It seems to be back now. I used to use a blog roll and then it sent my blog all funny with virus's and a blog friend took it off for me and sorted my blog out. I started using the google reader and was used to that and then it went away. I didn't know what to chose so went for the old reader which I am trying to get used to. Not sure what to use for the best really. Hannah and Lucy and some other friends said they have it set up with url's is that the blog roll please or something else.

 The photo is at the back of my yard and I just know there was an introoder there because I could smell it..
              Have a great Sunday everyone.. Love and hugs GJ xx

Feeling a little better.....

Hi everyone.. Well mum wanted to post today to tell you that the antibiotics seem to be helping me. I have been a little more lively in that I have felt well enough to get up on the wall and inspect the flowers. I haven't felt up to it for a while. I am back using the box and we hope that stays that way. Mum and dad are busy trying to get rid of the smells. A big bonus too is that I have eaten for the last two days too. So I think a good update.. In fact given how I have been for the last few weeks a very good update..






                                                I checked them all out and looking good..


                                                  Dad and I inspected all the flowers..
                                                 I know the antibiotics are helping me but all my friends purrs and prayers are just the best and the best help. Mum is going to try and get to visit my friends now.
                                                      Love and hugs to all  GJ xx

A box is a box........

Hi everyone... Mum got a small box in a delivery and I of course have claimed it. Mum says its far too small.. I say its just right.. After all a box is a box....






                          I am staying put...

      Now for me. Mum and dad are still trying to get the wet and smells out of the carpet and are spraying away at it. I seem thankfully to be at the moment staying away from that bit. I obviously have something going on still but hopefully slightly less with the antibiotics. I have been a little sick but it is very hot here and I am finding shady places to be.
   Mum has been on the early shift the last four days and has found it a real struggle with the heat and just not sleeping. It takes it's toll and mum has not been on the pc much at all.
  Mum did another book of part of my blog and when looking back became quite teary seeing all that we have done. Made many fabulous friends and joined in so many events. Shared joy and shared sadness. We are so glad we joined the blogging world and although struggle to get round and even post every day at  the moment we do so love you all.
                                           Thank you for being my friends.
                                                      Love and hugs to all

What am I doing....

Hello everyone.. Well mum and dad just cant understand what is happening. I told you earlier that I had been weeing out of the box. This is just so not me because no matter ill I was I always went in the box. Dad said a few days ago that he though he could smell something but didn't know where from. Well mum caught me the other day doing it near the stairs door in the living room. Mum washed all the carpet and we asked the vet who said it could be cystitis and gave me a injection. Well mum could also smell that smell and strong  so they went to the pet shop and got some spray that is supposed to rid the smell and help. When they lifted the carpet it was really saturated so it was not a one off thing. The spray was used and the carpet is lifted in the corner to dry out. Today it was done again. Last night mum caught me doing it near the back door. Both mum and dad are upset as I seem to be doing it everywhere but why now. They didn't get angry with me as they know this is not normally me but mum has sprayed the stuff everywhere and hope that helps. We are at a loss as to why and what is making me do this but hope it stops soon as just not nice at all.

                                                I went and sat on mum's knee and she talked to me and said she was not angry but please could I stop..

                                           Hope you are all ok.. Love and hugs to all.. GJ xx

A little update.....

Hello everyone. Mum is just giving you a little update after my vet visit. A few things have been worrying mum and dad apart from the eating. A strange one is that I have always been really clean and have never gone anywhere else apart from my two litter trays. Not even when I was tiny. The last few days mum was worried that I hadn't passed a lot in my tray. Today she spotted me doing something in the corner of the room and also on the bathroom rug. Mum knew this was just not like me and something must be wrong. The last three days I have been curled up behind the sofa and that was a worry but they hoped it was the heat that was doing it. I have been meowing a lot too which again is unusual. I am very thin again too which is to be expected with the eating problem.
    The vet was lovely with me as always and examined me well. He also said he thought the heat could have made me lethargic. I have lost a little more weight since my last visit. He also said he would give me a antibiotic injection in case I had a sort of cystitis which could have been causing the out of the box problem. Hopefully the injection will help.
 Both mum and dad know that I am declining but hope the meds keep me going for as long as possible. While ever I am enjoying a quality of life and not in pain then that is the main thing. So paws and fingers crossed again..
        Much love to all.. GJ xxx

Flipping Eck.....

Dad had given me my medication and decided to push his luck and give me a quick going over with the dreaded ferminator. I hate getting brushed and always have. I know a lot of friends like it but not me.I have to bear it though as I do get knotty. Dad was gentle and didn't do too much but my face says it all.




                                          All done. Thank goodness..
                        A little update now. I am not as good as I could be and am causing worry to mum and dad. I am eating a little on and off. Some days not bad and some days not much. The worrying thing is that I am really slowed down and the last couple of days have been behind the sofa a lot. They are hoping it is because it has been very hot and maybe cooler there. Tonight I have come out and am sat with mum while she types this for me. I have my next appointment with my vet at tea time tomorrow so hope I pick up a little. Mum says I don't look well in my face if you understand that. Fingers crossed because I keep bouncing back.
  Mum has been really bad at commenting and for that we are sorry. We will try to get back into it properly very soon. Its been a mixture of worry and illness and a couple other things so we are sorry and we really do appreciate all my friends very much. Please bear with us.
                         Much love and hugs to all   GJ xxx

No peace from the flashy box......

I was sitting in my planter wheelbarrow minding my own business when along came mum with the dreaded flashy box.                      I see you mum ...
                                                 I will pretend not to look....
                                                    Has  she gone...
                                                      Not looking...
                                                  Still not looking...

                                             She got sneaky and took these from underneath the  chair..


 

                                                      Sheesh the length's she goes to for pictures..

                                             Sneeky....  Mum and dad have been taking advantage of unexpected lovely weather and have been out and about. A 40's event and a seaside day. This means no blogtime for me. Mum is having her ears syringed tomorrow but is feeling a lot better thankfully. Another thing is that now that google reader has gone, mum is trying to get back all my friends. Sheesh complications.. We will be visiting you all soon but in the meantime love and hugs.. GJ xx

Checking in....


                                 Hello everyone.. Sorry for not being around. Mum has not been tip top and not on the computer a lot. I am holding my own and still managing to eat small amounts. Dad got the new meds in me and they seem to have helped a little. Mum says I am as light as a feather when I sit on her.
    Another sad day because Thunder my woofie friend ran off to the bridge today. Far too young to go. We know how much his mum and dad will be hurting today and send them love and hugs. If you haven't been to visit you can : Here    Thunder's mum said today on her blog Hug your pets.. She is so right because life is so short and time is precious. Love and hugs to all.. GJ xx
