Happy Cat Family

Hi, Hope here!
You guys are not going to believe this! Remember how I got the runs about two weeks ago or so, because meowmy fed me some dry food? Anyways, since then I have been having the runs on and off... I have been mostly fine... Meowmy picked up some yummy yummy stuff from the vet called Fortiflora, and that made me feel good for a while... But a couple of days ago I felt really bad at night, and didn't want to have my dinner... Then the next day I didn't feel like eating either, and all of the sudden I had the runs again... Not only that, but guess WHO took 2 baths again? TWO baths! Ok... Ok... I was pooped all over... Meowmy even tried to cut my fur, but there was no way... 
So yesterday morning I ate just a little bit... like half of what I eat... that is when I heard meowmy talking to somebody on the phone, and next thing I know... I am INSIDE OF A BAG!

I was being abducted and taken to the V-E-T! NO fair folks! 
Luckily my vet is super nice (he is Santa Claus), but he poked me, stuck things in places he should NEVER dare to stick, and then shoved two huge pills down my throat! 
Did you ever dream Santa Claus did that??? See with you own eyes - HE IS SANTA!

Hello folks!
I am not sure if you all watched the Ice skating dance last night... If you didn't, no worries,  meowmy recorded our appearance to post here for you guys. It was a performance of a lifetime! It was not enough for a medal, but we are proud regardless! Oh, the emotion to be in the Olympics, wow, wow, WOW! 
We will double our efforts now to practice much more for the next Olympics... We are also training for the Summer Olympics, and for the World cup, of course! Busy busy busy! 
So, what do you guys think about our appearance? 

After our presentation we all went sledding down the mountains with meowmy... It was soooo much fun! It's kind of hard to stay on the Sled thingy though - see the guy on the back who flew away? Poor guy! We all made it down - You know, kitties have way more balance than humans, and if we fall, we sure are way more gracious at it too! 

Whose couch is it anyways? That is a question meowmy often asks herself when sitting on the floor to use her computer. Well, as you can see, our cute faces and adorable poses always wins... she just can't get herself to wake us up! Poor humans, so predictable and easily trained! 

Today is Paw-turday! And what is Pawturday? A Saturday to celebrate the cuteness of the paw! We are not sure why, but meowmy loves our paws... She doesn't even seem to care too much that we step on the litterbox and all... Oh well, we let her adore our paws; whatever rocks meowmy's boat, and keep her coming back with lots of love...... and food!

Lucky here!
There is something about Fridays... It is cozier... Maybe it is the weekend coming... I don't know... It just feels so right to cuddle and cuddle and cuddle some more with meowmy! TGI Friday!
Happy Friday everybody!

Meowmy betrayed me so badly, I am having a very hard time soulseaching for forgiveness!
First she served me a last meal and locked me at the room at night with no food and no water for a looooooooong time you guys!
Then in the morning, when I was SO hungry, she overdid herself in the betrayal department:
She shook a bag of treats, and instead of giving some, locked me up in the carried and took me to the VET!
And this was not the regular vet.... They put me in the gas thing, gave me injections, put a tube in my throat...
I am telling you... this is the ultimate betrayal... Be aware of the bag of treats you guys - they are not always what they seem to be!

Hi, Mom, here!
I am so sorry, sweetheart!
Mommy loves you so much, and yes, I feel very very bad for doing this to you, but you HAD to go to the doctor... It is the only way to get better... You got to trust mommy, ok?

Alright folks- here is the update:

I had the BEST of news today!!!!!!
Bugsy responded amazingly well to his treatment, AND DOES not need extractions (at the moment, anyways!)

His gums went from a horrible Stomatitis level, to a border line Stomatitis/bad Gingivitis!!! Don't take me wrong, he DOES have stomatitis, and will have it for the rest of his life, but the inflammation is WAY, WAY down.... The goal of this treatment is to put him in remission - there is no cure for stomatitis as of yet... But this is a revolutionary and unique treatment that seeks to put him in remission for life, or while in treatment... It has great success.

There are no lesions around his throat, no lesions on the roof of his mouth, and the outside of one side of his mouth is already PINK!

He just needs to take his meds once a day as we have been doing, and we will be going for a follow up visit in three months!
I am IN SHOCK! This is THE BEST thing EVER!!!!!!! No surgery for him... No pain killers... He is already eating.... His Resorptive lesions do not have nerves exposed, so he does not needs to have extractions right now It is ALL fantastic news!!!!!

Here are the pictures of his way better mouth!

I am a 1000% believer in this treatment!
I got there blind, with my heart on my throat, expecting the worst... Then They handed me the camera, and the doctor came down to tell me all the good news... I could not believe it! He went from a Stomatitis level 2.3, to a level 1! Level ONE!!!!!!
So today he didn't even need the steroid shots they first gave him (local, inside the lesions) the healing was so good, they could forgo that! , or desensitizing treatments for his resorptive lesions, as the nerves are not exposed (finally could take a good look at that)- All they had to do was some extra cleaning, as they were able to do it deeper this time due to less inflammation !!!
And he is as good as new!!! I could not believe when I saw the pictures...
I was assured by his dentist today that his level of pain is minimal now
While before it was awful!
I can not tell you how happy I am today... Just a BIG HUGE relief! HUGE!

Today we kitties are helping to find Joe, from Phoenix, AZ a nice furrever home... He is so nice, and handsome, and sweet... Luckily he is in a foster home, but he desperately needs a furrever home... Meowmy says too bad she lives in Dallas, not in Phoenix, I don't think she has enough greens for another kitty either, but if you live around that area, or if you can post something in you internets to help him, he would appreciate! Watch the video, read the story... we fell in love with this little guy... We wish we could help him some more...

Hi, Lucky Here!
We wanted to wish a Happy Valentine's Day to all our friends and loved ones... Fur and skin alike! And we love a LOT of peoples ALL over the place! Happy Valentines day to you too, who is reading this note over the internets! xoxo

Alright folks, put the volume up up up! It is Carnaval, THE carnaval! Brasil officially stops (for business, that is :-) ) today, and the Party continues until Tuesday! NON-STOP party!! Wednesday is "recovery" or "hang-over" day, lol...
The video below is meowmy's favorite Samba School in Rio, called Mangueira...
Meowmy's mom is there, in Rio, she participates in the parades almost every year!
Enjoy the video, I know you guys can not understand Portuguese, but we hope you can appreciate the beat all the same! Meowmy was here, listening to it, in an embarrassing mix of Samba dancing and crying!

Hi, Lucky here!
There was this weird white, cold (brrrr) stuff falling from the skies non stop yesterday, and for some reason meowmy thought we would love to play in it... (I know, humans, right?)
Well, Hope, since her traumatizing feral days, never went out again, so once the door open, she hid.
Brother Bugsy did venture out after a loooooonnnnngggg time standing on the door with meowmy calling... and calling and calling... Once I saw that the white stuff didn't do any harm to him, I went there to check it out... But really... it is pretty, but not thanks!
Here are some pictures, and the videos...
One of the videos is too long, sorry about that :)
