My Mother's Day Surprises from the Fur-Balls! :O ...




Ah, "Mother's Day"!...

The day we all pay tribute to our Mommies! And, have tribute paid to US, if we are mommies as well. :)

Sooo...*I* am Mommy to a plethora of doggies and kitties...and this is just a little snippet of how MY Mother's Day unfolded... ;)

Hmmm...well, MY "babies" gave me several different tokens of THEIR love!...

1) It rained so hard all weekend, that Skittle would not go outside, and had to "potty" INSIDE! However, it was on her little "doggie-pad", so it was not too drastic of an ordeal.
...
2) Beuford DID go outside, but managed to scoot his little hiney on that retarded white carpeting we have. So...one nice landing-strip 4' across the living room!...Boom was NOT pleased.
...
3) Maya went out and traipsed all the hell over the mud-puddles...and then when Boomer let her back inside, she managed to zip past him, before he could wipe her paws off... (with the towel we keep by the backdoor, for just such purposes.)

She proceeded to then track muddy-ass dog prints all the hell over the white ceramic tiles...and THEN all over that retarded white carpeting! Again, Boom not happy. ;(
...
4) Truffle...totally perfect in every way...yet a humongous scaredy-cat baby...cannot stand the rain or thunderstorms...(Skittle cannot either)...and they stayed plastered to me the entire weekend while we suffered the deluge!

The doggie-Valium helped a bit...but also gave them...ah...er..."gastro-intestinal issues"--ICK...and I was constantly wiping and cleaning asses all weekend.

-----Hmmm...seems to be my theme lately...asses, puke, butts, and poop! Ughhh...-----
...
5) Changed and hosed-out 5 litter boxes...brushed almost an entire cat's-worth of fur off of 3 of the fur-balls...and I am STILL picking fur out of my nose!
...
6) Sam...Boomer's retarded cat...(no, really...the cat is totally cool...but just so damned ODD..like, NOTHING ever bothers him...he just LAYS there. There could be a pack of wolves in the room, hungrily leering at him, or we could be having a big-ass party, and that cat will just sleep thru it all.)

BTW...he is NOT deaf or anything, either. Just seems perpetually-STONED! Annndddd...as Boom's cat...hmmm...not surprised!

...Well, Sam has his OWN little digestive issues at times...he always eats his can of food up on the counter when Boom feeds him and Maya at 5pm everyday...while Maya eats on the floor...

Well, Sam sometimes has a problem of eating his food, and then freaking projectile vomiting it all the hell over the place!

(There is no rhyme nor reason to when and if he gets sick...Boomer makes sure that he only buys the certain flavors of food which do not make Sam sick, and I have taken him to the vet and had him checked-out...he appears to be pretty healthy...he just barfs occasionally.)

Now, this is totally Boom's deal...that cat pukes, then he cleans it up. He is usually standing there by him when he eats anyway.

However...unfortunately, he also keeps his lap-top on the counter next to where Sam eats. Sooo...when Sam barfs, his lap-top is directly in the line-of-fire...and yesterday it sooo was! :O

Annndddd... Boom had left his lap-top open...even thought he was not even using it...sooo...when Sam spewed his entire can of Ocean Whitefish all over hell, it splatted directly all over Boom's keyboard :O

RESULT: Boomer is sooo SCREWED! AND PISSED!!! He cannot make his keyboard work AT ALL...he has even taken all of the keys off and cleaned it out...still nothing.

(Actually, that poor cat puked his guts up all over the house yesterday...sooo gross...I could not believe all that came out of that small cat... Yikes.) Bleeeccchhh..... ;(


And then there were my OWN "kitty-issues" on Mother's Day, as well ... (Oy-Vey!)...

You know those big, plastic lids which you put on the storage tote-bins? Well, I have to put those under all the litter boxes, because one of my Persians, "Shasta", has decided that her little paws are much too delicate to actually deign to step foot IN the litter box, itself (even when it is totally spick-and-span-clean!)

Nooo...she derives much more enjoyment from kinda squatting by the edge of the box, and kinda hanging her little furry butt over the edge, and onto the tote-lid! OMG...it is such a mess!

However, I gotta' keep those lids under the litter boxes (all FIVE of them!)...because if I do not, she will just pee on the floor NEXT TO the litter boxes. :O

When I change the litter boxes, I have to completely hose out and wash down everything with "Clorox bathroom cleaner"...it is NOT an easy task...messy, messy, messy! The UNDERSIDES of the boxes are all plastered to the lids underneath with tons of cat pee...sooo gross!

And then, that night I was changing the trash can liner in the master bathroom...the trash can is this cutesy little decorative number all lined in mirrors. Well, it sits up on the step which leads up into our big garden tub with the jacuzzi jets...

...When I pulled the old liner up and out of the trash can, it was a soggy mess, and there were about 4 inches of cat pee in the bottom of the trash can, that had seeped out of the liner!!! Eeeeewwwwwwwwww!!!!!!!!

I could not BELIEVE IT! That little shit had been squatting up on the edge of the tub and peeing right into the trash can! UNBELIEVABLE! She was incredibly accurate, too! Not one drop on the outside of the can, or on the retarded white carpeting, either! (Yes, there are MILES of that white carpeting in our house....it is RIDICULOUS!!!)
...
So, THAT was the culmination of My Mother's Day festivities. ;) And, I would not trade any of my precious babies for the world! :)

(And YES...I DID go over to my Mommy's house to see her on this such joyous occasion...bearing an abundance of gifts... blooming plants of every type imaginable. Mommy just LOVES to dig in the dirt!...

...Hmmm...she must have been a CAT in a former life! Probably from whence we have acquired our feline-affinity! ;)
