Rue is the Cutest Thing on Earth!

-- Hooman Momma


If this post isn't the cutest, I don't know what is! (Please bear with me, proud momma mode :p)

Not everyone who reads this blog knows that I do Brazilian Jiujitsu (BJJ), and Rue's favorite thing to sleep on is my BJJ uniform, called a gi. It's thick, tough and quite rough, and made of 100% cotton. That's probably why she loves it. It's normal to see her gloriously stretched across my gi, or perfectly curled up inside it. But now she found a new use for the sleeves, and I can't help but melt from all the cuteness!

Spot the Cat moment

Spot the NOT!

Just the cutest!

Cutest ever!

Sorry for gushing like a teenage girl, but really, ain't Rue the cutest? :)

So I was changing the sheets, then something flicked!

Have a great weekend everyone!

iPad We Want!

We want an iPad. Srsly. Because we want this game!

Weekend at the Park

-- Rue

Because momma has been travelling (her travel blog HERE), she didn't have the time to take me to the park in the past weeks. What a bummer! I've always loved watching the birds and enjoying my own sunbeam at the park. So I had to remind her of her momma duties last weekend! Good thing she obliged. I had a grand time in Ayala Triangle Park and Greenbelt 5. Oh, and we went shopping again in Bow & Wow! Yee-meow!

Here's how I pleaded to momma. Who can resist such a face?

Oh, and here's our latest loot:

Kitty Kaviar Bonito Treat, ORKAkat Catnip Stuffers, and Cat Silver Vine Powder

Kitty Kaviar from Bow & Wow - We loooooooooove our bonito treat! Qish didn't like it at first, but I knew I'll love it on my first sniff! I couldn't get enough of it!

ORKAkat Catnip Stuffers from Bow & Wow - Ok, we were amused for about 15 minutes, then we forgot about it. I think momma was quite upset that we didn't play with it that much, teehee.

Cat Silver Vine Powder from Saizen - I had the ultimate "high" with this! Waaaaaay better than catnip! They say it's Japanese catnip because it's popular in Japan and the plant grows there, too. We loooooove it! Momma sprinkles it over Qish's food when he loses his appetite, and it works for him well.

RUE in Monochrome

-- Rue

I am not scared of the camera. In fact, I love it! Momma says I project like a pro model when I see the camera. So we thought we should start a monochrome series, because it looks nice! :)

I has BIG FEETS. Be scared. Be very scared!

I am the real Puss in Boots!

Today I am 1-year-old Again!

-- RUE

Not all of you know that same day last year, I almost lost my wonderful kitty life.

My grandma was sewing my momma's pants, and I wanted to play with the strings. So I sneaked into her stash, and stole a long string. I played with it with so much gusto, and I thought it was good food, so I started swallowing it. Little did I know that it had a sharp needle at the end!

Grandma was horrified when she saw a glimpse of a shiny thing on my tongue. But like magic, it was gone when she forced open my mouth! Momma rushed me to the vet's clinic, and she cried when she saw this:

Dr. Riza didn't let me go home anymore and scheduled me for an emergency surgery. And while everyone was contemplating on who they'll vote for (it was on the same day as the May 2010 presidential elections), momma was so worried about what will happen to me!

That afternoon, Dr. Nielsen opened my stomach and took out the needle, string and other things I chewed on. (WARNING: graphic images!)

Eeeew! That's my gut!

Here's what they got: needle, string, and part of momma's shawl

And this was me right after the surgery. I was so weak and I wasn't really happy with what they did to me! They didn't let me eat for three days. I had an IV drip, and they only allowed me to go home after staying for six days at the hospital. SIX DAYS! Momma must have missed me, because she was there twice a day to visit me -- morning and evening.

I looked ugly! :(

I am really thankful that momma, grandma, Dr. Riza, Dr. Nielsen and everyone at Vets In Practice Animal Hospital love me so much they took great care of me. But I wasn't too happy that I had five stitches on my stomach, and it hurt so much when they took them out. But I'm glad I've lived through that. I won't be blogging if I didn't, imagine that!

Momma Betrayed Us!

-- Qish & Rue

Momma was away last weekend, off to a beautiful unspoiled beach (check out momma's travel blog here). We've never been to a beach, but we think this place is really beautiful when we saw these photos.

 

 

 

 

 

However, look at momma's betrayal! Can you see who she was touching? A dog! Uh, and she took a lot of photos of the different dogs there. She said they were all nice and even went with her for a morning walk. Bah. While we were left in her house, waiting for our catsitter to come, she was out on a beach playing with dogs! Not fair! 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 But we gotta admit, this puppy is totally cute and cuddly :)
