The Merry Month of May

Hi Everyone!!!
Sorry that I haven't posted anything in a while but me mom has been tooo busy working long hours to help me type out a new post.  But, she finally took some time off from work to do somethings including extra cuddling time with me and the other pups.  It has been so nice the past 4 mornings having her spend more time cuddling with us.  Yesterday we even let her sleep until 5:30am, boy was she happy!!!!  But, today we got her up at 4:30am we didn't want to spoil her tooo much.  LOL  She didn't mind, she just drank lots of coffee.
It is hard to believe that it is the end of May.  I turned 6 years old this month on May 11th.  We had a quiet celebration and it was nice.  Considering what has happened to me this year, I am just happy to be alive.  I still have no feelings in me back legs and the vets are not sure if I ever will.  Only time will tell if I will ever walk again.  But, I love my cart and being with my brother and sisters.  I am getting stronger and almost beat me human brother Chris to the kitchen one day for treats.  It made me mom and Chris laugh!!!  Me mom also setup a small pad for me so that I can be with her when she is on the computer.  We both like that.  I usually have one of my sisters with me also.  Well me paws are getting tired so it is time for some pictures.  I hope you like them.

For me birthday, me mom had to embarrass me by finding puppy pictures of me.  Thanks MOM!!!!!  Here they are:

                       This picture was taken on the first day when I came to my forever home!!!

                                 Learning to walk on a wooden floor was really hard!!!  LOL

                                Me and Freckles taking our first nap with our toys in our forever home.

                                                              I love sleeping on me back!!

                                         Thanks mom for waking me up with the flash going off in me face!!!  LOL


One day a really special surprise came for me in the mail.  A birthday gift from Addie, Lucie and Hailey.
 It made me really really happy!!!!  They are great friends.   The treats were great also.   Yum, Yum, Yum

                                           So nicely gift wrapped I almost didn't open them up!!!

                                                   Yum pretzel treats and they are mine all mine!!

                                           Opening up the bag all by me self.  But,  I saved the tag.

                                          Dipstick and I wanting to open up another gift.  Yes, I did share them with me brothers and sisters. Me mom made me, and I didn't mind because they are me brothers and sisters and I love them lots.  Thanks again Addie, Lucie and Hailey for the great gifts.  :-)
                                       
Since Dipstick couldn't have more of me treats he decided to find his own... Mom caught him in the act:

                                                    I know there is food in here someplace!!

                                                             This picture says it all!!!!

                Here's a picture of me and Midget laying next to me mom when she is on the computer.  I love being next to me mom no matter where she is.

                                                                   Life is good!!!

                                                                  I love you all!!!!!

          

I hope everyone has a nice Memorial Day on Monday!  Please take a moment to remember our soldiers for the sacrifices they have made to keep us free.  Especially the soldiers who gave their lives.  God Bless them and the United States of America!
     

                         

HAPPY EASTER!!!!!

Hi,
I just want to wish all my furry and human family and friends a very Happy Easter!!  I also want to thank you for all the support and prayers that you have been sending me while I try to regain the use of me legs.  Your messages of support and the power of the paw makes me keep going.  Me and me mom and Chris hope someday that I will walk again, but the most important thing that me mom says is that I am still alive.  Life is great especially when you have a family and friends that love you and support you no matter what.

Thank you again and I hope you all have a beautiful Easter Day.  God Bless You all!!

                
                                                                  Love,  Blu

A Tribute To Blackie

A Post From Blu's Mom
As some of you might already know on January 31, 2012 we lost a very special member of our pet family.  Her name was Blackie. Otherwise know to us as Queen Blackie, or Wacky Blackie, or our One Grand Cat.  But really she was a Queen and she held that title with grace until the day she went to the Rainbow Bridge.

                                                                    Queen Blackie


 Blackie was 14 1/2 years old when she suddenly feel ill and died.  I guess in a way it was God's way of not allowing a very special cat suffer for too long.  Because you see after she became ill we found out that she had cancerous tumors in her abdomen and stomach.   We never knew that she had them because she never let on that she was that sick.  We thought we would have to make the decision for when to say goodbye to Blackie, but again God in his own way did it for us.   The vets allowed us to take Blackie home, and she died peacefully in Chris' arms about an hour after she came home.  It was a fitting ending because Blackie was Chris' cat, and  they always had a special bond.  We all miss her a lot, but we have 14 years of very special memories of her that we will keep in our hearts forever.  Today as a tribute to our special Blackie I would like to share some of this memories and pictures with you all.

Blackie was born in July of 1997 to my niece's cat named Lucky.   What is amazing is that we had found a little kitten in June and named him Lucky.  Some of you might know our beloved cat Lucky from Facebook.
When we first saw Blackie, Chris fell in love with her and she came into our lives in October of 1997.

                                                       Blackie with her favorite toy.

                                       Yes folks she really was watching a movie!  It was Muppet Treasure Island


Her and Lucky became best buddies and you would always find them together someplace in the house.  Here are some pictures of the Blackie and Lucky together.

 Oh just in case you are wondering the bird wasn't eaten just in another cage.

Blackie and Lucky always shared a window

At one point in time we had 3 cats and here is a picture of three very special Dudley cats who are now at the Rainbow bridge together.

                                        
                                                 Lucky, Blackie and my precious cat Tuffy.

One of the reasons why we called her Wacky Blackie was because of the silly things she did. Here are some pictures of our silly Blackie.

                                                               Playing with her toy. 

                                                           Using a fan stand as a pillow?

                                                  Blackie loved to go into a bag.

         Blackie went into Chris' backpack, so he was going to try to take her to school that day.  Sorry Blackie, but mom had to say no because of some silly rule of no pets at school.

                                                       She loved to help me wrap gifts.

                                                        Or lay down on top of them

Blackie was my son Chris first pet, and they held a very special bond.  Chris was 7 years old when we got her and it was a joy watching them both grow up together.  Here are some pictures of  the 2 of them.

                                         
                                                         Chris loved to read to Blackie

                                                                  Chris and his Blackie                                                      

There is no real easy way to end this tribute except to say, thank you Blackie for 14 special years together.  It was an honor to have you as a member of our family.    We miss you so much and we will never forget you.   Love you always.  Mom

The other great event that happened in February was that we pups all got coats to wear outside.  Now all I need are boots and a license and I am ready to wheel around town!!!!  Just kiddin about the license, but the boots I need to protect me feet.  I just want a license with me name on it. Me mom says she is going to get that for me soon!!!   I want to thank me special friends Addie, Lucie and Hailey for getting me my coat!!!  I love it and it looks great on me!  It was so kind of you to buy me this so that I could go outside and get more exercise and help me get better!  Thank you also to Sam for letting me know where to get me license and me boots.  Sam has been giving me and me mom lots of advice and we appreciate it a lot.  We appreciate all the support you all have been giving me.  The power of the paw will get me better, I just know it!!!

Here are some pictures of us with our new coats!!!

Next week I am going to let me mom do me Blog because of a very sad event that happen to our family the end of January.  On January 31st, our Queen of the Dudley pets, Blackie went to the Rainbow Bridge.  It was very very sudden that she became ill and died.  She was 14 1/2 years old and we all miss her a lot. We are still trying to get over her passing away.
 Me mom wants to do a special tribute to her next week and I said it was okay.   But to honor her today here is a picture of Blackie.  God Bless you Blackie and I hope your are running and playing with Lucky at the Rainbow Bridge.  Love always, Blu
