Update: Noon

I just talked to Deb, she's home and waiting for the pain meds to kick in. She said she really hurts.She found out that this surgery is two-part, so she is scheduled to do the other side next Tuesday. Sigh. Hopefully she is sleeping now. She did see a few of the blogs and her graphic and said it made her feel so happy that everyone was so caring.

Auntie Deb is haffing some serious surjery today.
She be in so much pain right now, an tha doktor told her this surjery would be "very painful". Ouchie, makes me cring jus ta fink about it.

Please send your strongest purrayers an purrs fur Auntie Deb

Tanti Baci, Opus

Sassy Cat had a grrreat idee to celebrate Opus' Birthday today with a "Card Shower"....

Friday, September 26, if you would like to join in, a bunch of us are having a surprise card shower for Opus. We are celebrating his birthday a little late. We know he is lonely since his brother Roscoe went to the bridge a couple of weeks ago. Opus gave a beautiful celebration of life for Roscoe on their shared birthday therefore his birthday was a little forgotten. Let's surprise Opus and cheer him up! If you would like to email him a card his address is: catnapsinitaly AT yahoo.com or you could stop over at his place and wish him a surprise Happy Belated Birthday.

We are posting this beautiful card by Zoolatry and dedicating our bloggie to Opus today.

Too-Much-To-Do Toosday

We're back!
While the humans deal with paperwork, clean up and FEMA,
the kitties have something much more interesting to do!
Look what wandered up on the window.
(Such a pretty little lizard, I'm glad the window was closed!)

Missy Blue Eyes is resting from all the excitement...
no, not the hurricane, but the post Sam I Am left for her yesterday!
She only fainted two times!!!!

Thanks to everyone for the purrs and purrayers.
Ike wasn't quite as bad as Alicia, but it was an experience.
7 days without electricity and 9 days without water was not fun,
but so many others had it much, much worse.
We are grateful no one around us was hurt or injured.

And all six kitties were such great little troopers.
When the winds threatened to break the lock and blow the front door open, Sol, Smokey and BJ stood in front of it and growled.
