Bloggers 5 years of MEOWY CATMAS SHOWS from the past! 2015-2020


MEOWY CATMAS ALL!
 We decided a good thing to do  Catmas morning was to repost catmas blogger videos we did in the past.  We did 6 shows in all, from 2015 to 2020.  We are going to post links to all! (if possible) Click on the   link below for 2016! (Hope it works...)

Here is 2015


Here is 2017


Here is 2018

Here is 2019

Here is 2020

In the years following 2021 we switched to MEW YEARS Shows...and will show some next week!

We know it is a bittersweet experience to watch videos when some of our best furriends are over the bridge, but most feel it brings them and their presence to us in a healing and loving way.  Hoping you feel the same if you wish to watch...

with love,

Peaches, Paprika and Mom Carol

Peaches Post-Anesthesia Report - by Paprika the Cat


 Paprika the cat here.  Who better to tell this story than I!

So Peaches had her dental surgery yesterday...and unlike ME, she didn't even have to have any teeth pulled.


Now when I, Paprika had this done, I not only had to have 2 teeth pulled I acted like a little lady afterwards.  I laid down quietly .... and bothered NO one.  


But that's me.



Now Peaches on the other hand ACTED LIKE A DIFFERENT CAT.  For one thing, she didn't even act like herself..  She looked CRAZED!



Then she began to run about the house looking for food. But our human was told not to give her food so soon after the anasthesia.





Peaches went to great lengths to disobey instructions.


She tried to jump on things.



She tried to climb things she wasn't supposed to.


Our human had to chase her all over the house.


THEN...she sat by her food bowl...for THREE HOURS.



Naturally no one paid any attention to ME during this time.  I mean, I live here too!


At last, following vet instructions, our human gave her 1/2 a meal and she appeared to settle down.  And then our human took her to the den (where she spends most of her time), gave her more food, water, a hug, and she was near her litter pan.  She closed the door so Peaches would stop roaming the house restlessly and getting into trouble.


But here's the rub...I heard her meowing at 1:30AM!  She would not stop. Our human slept blissfully through all this but I couldn't.  I had no choice but to WAKE OUR HUMAN UP AT 1:30AM. If you think she wasn't happy about that, you are right!

Having no choice, she got out of bed and followed me and I led her to the den where Peaches was making a racquet.  Of course she had to let Peaches out.  


But THEN Peaches demanded breakfast...at 1:30AM.  Well here's what I did. I joined her.  After all, there's such a thing as solidarity.  So we BOTH SAT By OUR PLATES AND MEOWED FOR BREAKFAST AT 1:30AM.


Poor Mom Carol. She HAD to feed us if she wanted to get any sleep.  And I had an early 1:30AM breakfast right along with Peaches.  


So Mom Carol got finally to go back to sleep.


The next morning it was like nothing happened.  Maybe I dreamed this whole thing.  Peaches was her old self, back at her post in the den in the sun and I... well I feel like a hero, helping out my sister.  After all, it might be my turn next!

Respectfully submitted,


Paprika the cat
