    Goodbye Mr. Smiley

    Well, I believe it's about time for Mr. Smiley to hit the recycle bin. He's pretty deflated and even when it warms up in here he doesn't move anymore. He'd be flat on the floor except we have him propped against a table leg. I won't take a pic because it's just too sad.

    But I do have these two pics and two videos from last week (just been too busy to get them posted yet). So without further ado, here are the last pics of Mr. Smiley 2004.
    He just liked Peanut so much and always hung out by her house.




    This pic is right by the walkway that goes from the kitchen to the bedroom, so it's a busy place in the morning.

    Peanut was in her house and Terry must have walked by and Mr. Smiley wafted over to knock on Peanut's door. She came out to greet him and then left - she's such a good hostess.

    And here she is on the runner. She actually walked right up next to him, looked at him, then proceeded to totally ignore him and leave. I get the feeling she could really care less about him. Poor Mr. Smiley, he tried so hard!

    These pics and videos were taken last week when he was still floating around the house. Like I said, he's pretty deflated now, and I think it's time.....Goodby Mr. Smiley. It's been fun.

    I think it would be worth it for you to have him reinflated, Debbie! I think you can do that with mylar balloons. Your kitties would be so happy!!!

    Aww! Goodbye Mr. Smiley .... I LOVE Peanut! I can tell she has some catitude. She reminds me a little bit of my Mitzi - same small-build and something about her face, paws and mannerism that's very similar. I can tell she's a real sweetheart, but on HER terms! Gotta love the gal!

    Even though Mr. Smiley will be put to rest, your cats always bring a smile to my face! As usual I cannot view the video
    Trap-Neuter-Return (TNR) is a full management plan in which stray and feral cats already living outdoors in cities, towns, and rural areas are humanely trapped, then evaluated, vaccinated, and sterilized by veterinarians. Kittens and tame cats are adopted into good homes. Healthy adult cats too wild to be adopted are returned to their familiar habitat under the lifelong care of volunteers

    Logan's right, you can hjave them re-inflated. I'm sure if you explain that your cat's sad at his demise, they'll refill the hellium for free

    Tuesday was my daughter's birthday and I wanted to get a mylar balloon for her (really the cats) but the weather was so bad that I couldn't... I would have loved having Mr. Smilie's cousin bopping around here for a while.

    Peanut, you are just ro cute. Look how sweetly you stand on your porch while you have a visitor.

    AWWWWW Poor Mr. Smiley! RIP dear one and safe trip to the RB.

    Pssst - I think this should go in Pet Memorial
    Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, champagne in one hand and strawberries in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and screaming WOO HOO - What a Ride!

    Awww, Gini, that is so cute! Thanks!

    I didn't know you could reinflate them! I may just have to look into that!!! Even if they just put a little bit in otherwise he'll be stuck to the ceiling for the next 3 weeks because we took all his "weights" off.

    Of course, he wasn't that expensive, and it might just be easier to buy a new one. Oh no, am I promoting disposable smilies?!

    Catnapper, you can get one no matter what the weather. If it's cold outside, they will deflate a little when you bring them out, but they will immediately re-inflate as soon as they get in the warm house again.

    Thanks everybody! Redhedd, the being a sweetheart, but on HER terms is what we call being a snot. That's why she's out snotty little girl. And I can see how she and Mitzi would be alike. They're both torties and they're both girls - such a combination such screams attitude!

    And Kim, yes, she stands and swishes her tail like that all the time. I call her our little puppy dog kitty cat just because of her tail swishing.
