Naughty Cat


Yesterday was Bear's 10th birthday. He'll be here tomorrow to tell you all about it. What I'm here to tell you about is our cat.

Naughty, naughty cat.

Last night some friends came over to help us celebrate Bear's 10th year. As they were coming in the door, Millicent Pearl ran out.

Into the dark.

Into the dark wooded lot.

Into the dark, cold, wooded lot.

We spent some time looking for her with flashlights and we left the garage door open as long as we could.

I hoped for her safe return. Her previous owner had her as an indoor/outdoor cat so she was familiar with the outside. But we had her declawed one week after getting her and she has been indoors since. Plus, this is all new area and it was gonna be below freezing during the night.

Luckily, at 3:30 am Brenda heard meowing outside her bedroom window. After waking up enought to realize what it was, she opened the window and let Milli in. She also carried Milli (to help warm her up) out to the food and litter and made sure there was food and water.

When I woke this morning I was told that we only get one 3:30 am rescue. :) Next time, it's on us.

After loving on Milli for a bit (she was camped out on the couch) we went on about our business. Until Husband noticed her limping. And as I watched her I saw it too. An obvious limp on her back right leg.

Thinking she might have a splinter or thorn in her foot I picked her up to check things out. What I found instead was a gash about an inch and a half long.


We have doctored her up best we can and now are just waiting. She seems to be resting well enough. Hopefully nothing will get infected and she will be ok without having to involve the vet.

I keep telling her, "This is why we don't let you outside. I hope you've learned your lesson."

I'm sure she understands. The annoyed look on her face tells me so.

It's In His Blood

On Saturday, Husband and I went for a little date. We ate Panera (yay Frontega Chicken Sandwich and Broccoli Cheddar Soup!) and then went to see The Tourist. I must tell ya, The Tourist was great. Hubs and I highly recommend it!

But it was what happened when we got home that was even better.

Upon returning home, I went straight into the kids bedrooms to say hello and check on them. Bear immediately pulled out a piece of notebook paper that he had drawn on to show me his picture.

On the left side of the paper was an alligator with the caption "Go Gators!" written above it. It's only been three months and he is already converted.

But he quickly pointed to the other side of the paper where he had drawn Pistol Pete and written "Go Cowboys" above it.

His explanation...

"I have to love the Cowboys. It's in my blood."

Yes, Bear, it is. ;-)

*My father graduated from Oklahoma State. I grew up going to OSU football games. My parents still have season tickets and attend every bowl game they can. Just got back from San Antonio, actually. One sister has graduated from OSU and my other sister will graduate from OSU this year. We love our Cowboys! And luckily, Husband has always preferred OSU to OU too!
Here's Bobo's birthday in 2009.
