Wow! Great news! The Boots man got his kone off!!! Yippiee!!! Whew, glad to hear everything's going good again after that little scare. Keep up the good work, Boots. Tubby and Peanut are still prayin' for you too. They don't like to hear one of their buddies isn't feeln' good.

You're such a character when you're feeln' good, but you gotta stop scarin' your dad. Thank goodness the dogz gave you away when you made it outside.

Oh, and Sophie's silver nails are divine, they kinda go with her crown.

[Logan]

I'm always a day late and a dollar short, but I couldn't be happier than to hear this news!!! Yeah, Boots!!! Hope you wet those paper real good, so Dad will keep that cone off your neck, and quit his worrying!!!! Be well, my friend!!!

[Cinder & Smoke]

HI, Ebberbuddie! I'z back atta shop wiffa Gang tuday...

Kinda *tweek'd* I dint get ta make da trip yesturday - I'z startin to like kar ridez long as it'z NOt to da White Coat'z Places.

I dun sum lil papur peez whilst I wuz home yesturday, so Dad lemmie out till BigBed tyme last nite. He locked me up kuz I dint make no damp papurs affore litez out.

Made up fur it this mornin - HuMUNgus pile a damp papurs! Gave Hed Bumpiez an a lotta door pawin when Dad kame in - so he sed I kuld ride ober to da Shop. Sellabrated wiff anudder big pee dump jest while he wuz loadin up all my gear ta go. THAT got da papur box warshed out an fresh papurz fur da trip!

Got here an Dad unloads the Dawgs an all my stuff an returnz fur me. I'z peepin out his winnow inna kar till he getz klose - then I krowchez down when he pops er open an *kaZOOooom!* - Off I goez like a Streak-a-Litnin --- fur about 2 feet. Left my durn Tail flyin out behind an he *GRABBz* it (wiffa Left handpaw, no less!)
**EEE-Yowchie!**
Left 50 footz a gud Klaw Nailz onna sidewalk affore I quit runnin. Dang it! He hadda good gripy onna Tail! Sheeze, Dad - I wuz jest tryin ta beet ya to da door! Whud a worrie-wart he iz!

Dad set up my spot - chair holdin the leashy string (so's I kant go 'splorin all ober the Shop place lookin fur the Kumpanie Rat {Smoke's lil mousie bud that hangz out here makin Dad }), boff my pee boxez, krunch bowl, an the durn wadder kup. I settel'd down to a long sessun inna krunch bowl - ate a BIG brekfust. Then I noticed! Durn chikun krunchie jumped inna wadder kup. NUTz! Aint supposed to be in there... Better get him out...

Started lappin up wadder - I'z gonna sink him onna bottum an *grab* him! Kept swimmin round an hidin unner that dang sqwirt gun Dad plopped inna kup wiffa wadder. Eben tried dippin a paw ta snag the lil floatur - Kunnit get it!! Lapp'd up an Drunk a hole *heck-uva-LOTTA* wadder affore I gib'd up wiffa lil *uRRRRpp* an lay down fur a nappy...

Feelz like I gotz a half gallun wurth a *Good Kat* wadder inna tank - But I'z gonna keep Dad gessin just WHEN?? I'z gonna du a pee job... Kan't wate too much longer - I kinda *Sloss-shez* when I movez around...

Dad'z Happie Azza Klam kuz I'z not jumpin inna boxez an strainin nor lickin the plummin. He tinks mabee I'z tryin to get back onna skedule of jest two Big Peez a day. It'z a Pain Inna Butt ta havta keep klimin inna box ebery lil while ta dumpa a lil outta da tank. Mebbie I'z gonna wate till we kar-ride back to da Ranch - I likez the *challenge* of hittin the papurs standin sidewayz inna muvin kar!

Kace yer wunderin - the poopy part iz werkin OK, too. Dad tinkz it'z a lil soggie - kuz I'z up to bout a 50-50 mix a New Chikun Krunch an old stuff.
A gud stinkie *plop* getz flushed a lot quicker than a dry wun - saves me frum havin to move a lotta sand.

Dad sez time ta get offa the bodily funkshunz topik!

I'z jest kinda hangin round - moved muself into Cinner'z spot onna unner-puter hide-a-way ruggy. She wanderz ober ebery now-an-agin an gibz Dad a sad-eyez look about loozin her place asside SmudgePot; but she spendz her tyme onna ruggy in frunta the door watchin the karz go bye. Smoke duzint seem to mind my kumpanie - but I hate it when he *S-t-r-e-t-c-h-e-z* Waaaay out an skrunchez me inna korner unner the puter.

An Hoo-Boy! Ya gotta watch out fur Dad'z B-I-G PawFootz when he furgetz we'z unner the puter an he triez to stretch hiz long leggz!!
Eeeee-Yipes! Duz it get *krowded* down here when THAT happenz!

OH Yeah! Hey Miz Sophie ~

YAY!!! BOOTS!!!
Sounds like you are feeling much better. Is your tail any longer after it being pulled like that? Ouch!!! Try not to be nawtee and scare your Dad and he won't grab your handle like that. I agree that Miz Sophie's nail polish looks very nice on her. Keep the water works flowing, Boots!

[Tubby & Peanut's Mom]

All right Boots! Tubby says a regular schedule of two good peez a day is a good thing. He has to go down to the basement for it, so twice a day saves all that climbing up and down the stairs - 'specially when he's up in the loft when he gets the urge, then it's a real long trip down the stairs.

It's great that you're feelin' better, and enjoying the trips to the shop, but you gotta stop scarin' your dad! He's been so worried about you so keep up with the head bumpiez, but stop with the scarin' - kay? Hope your tail isn't too sore.

And who needs apples when reading a Boots, Cinder or Smoke post a day is enough to keep the doctor away.

[Cinder & Smoke]

WAY TO GO BOOTS!! So glad your plumbing is working fine. Those railroad tracks will shake it out of you all right. At least the ones in Kansas would. They also will shake out your liver, spleen and anything else shakable. You got to watch them all the time. Thank you for taking the time to paw us an update.

[Miss Meow]

Yay for Boots! Keep pee-ing!

[zippy-kat]

"HEY DAD!"
"What Boots?"
"I wanna go on a car ride!"
"Not today."
"Yes today."
"No."
"Yes."
"No."
"If you don't take me on a car ride--I ain't gonna pee!"
"I'll get the keys...."

Is that kitty spoiled or what?

[lizbud]

Hey Bootsey,

Glad you doing better sweetheart. I think your dad
otta let you paw out messages all the time now. When
you're back 100%, why don't you just keep on letting us
in on the goings on at the ranch, from a Kitty perspective ?
Hang in there Boots boy and keep on getting better and
better.
