Sad, Sad Saturday

Look, I'm just a cat. I live a life of luxury. I don't work. I am well taken care of. I am loved. I write this blog for my own amusement. But I'm not stupid. I know I'm damn lucky to be alive, because I almost died, and somebody saved me.

A person that can only be described as the worst kind of evil shot and killed twenty little kids yesterday, and six adults who tried to protect them, in Connecticut, the state where I was born.

To pretend to be frivolous on a day like this is just wrong.

I'm purring for all the hearts that are broken today.  Will you join me?

Positive Vibes Needed

Mom's an expert at lots of stuff, and there are very few people on the planet she would do ANYTHING for, but one of those people who is not related is having a "procedure" today and we would like to ask you to keep this wonderful lady in your thoughts and prayers.

This lady is going to a special hospital to have some radioactive pellets inserted in a tumor behind one of her eyes. That this lady is an artist who is very generous with her time, knowledge and creativity makes the "procedure" all the more terrifying.

Please send your thoughts to "W" today for Mom and me. I've got my purr-er on overdrive for "W."

Thank you,
your friend,
Millie

Purring for Daisy Mae Maus

My friend Daisy Mae Maus is very sick, so I am purring for her. She is one of my oldest and dearest friends. I've got my purr-er in overdrive for her.

Purring for Rudy

I've got my purr-er purring on overdrive for my friend Rudy. He's Parker's brother, and he's really sick. He has to take nasty medicine and go to the v-e-t about every other day! So, I'm sending all my purrs to O-hi-o so Rudy gets better real fast.

Wishful Wednesday

Look, we blogging cats are a fairly frivolous bunch, and we're damned lucky. It's easy to brag about how we run our houses, and call our People our servants and stuff...

But today my thoughts are with those 33 miners in Chile who are hoping their rescue goes smoothly and safely, so you'll forgive me if I'm less "flip" today.

Today, I'm sending purrs to Chile, and I'm gonna keep sending them until all the miners are free. Hope you can join me.

Purr-ayers Please!

Millie's Mom, Lynne here. This is my mother. She's been tired a lot lately and went to her doctor yesterday for some tests. Turns out she has a pulmonary embolism and was admitted to the hospital last night, where she will likely stay a few days. It's good she's in the best place possible. It sucks she'll be in the hospital. We had planned to have our birthday cakes together on Saturday, which will be her 77th birthday.

Can you please send her some purrs, purr-ayers and positive vibes so she gets well soon?

Thanks. And thank you all for the lovely birthday wishes yesterday.

Tough Week

Mom came home from her day hunting gig on Monday shaking all over. I had to make her sit down so I could get next to her and purr. You will be happy to know I got her back to normal after an hour or so.

Tuesday night wasn't a lot better, although she didn't need so much purring time.

Wednesday she was a little bit better, but she still seemed a bit freaked out to me. I think she said some beans at her day hunting gig were laying down.

She isn't, but I don't understand why laying down is a bad thing. This is one of those times that I am really glad I am a cat.

And it's one time I think Mom would rather be a cat, too.
