HAPPY EASTER EVE, EVERYONE!!!

My goodness...what a busy month Lantus Land has had!!

Kitties going off the juice... kitties hitting breakthrough doses...beans having surgery...Curry doin' time again...
new kitties joining the family....Sid and BigMac's epic battles to regain their health...WOWZA!
We're also saddened by losing so many friends recently. :sad:

Binks and I had a long (well...short, actually) discussion about celebrations, and decided we'll just ignore him falling off the wagon last year-
and claim his OTJ Anniversary today. :mrgreen: So, Happy Anniversary, Wheatie Buns- you know mama loves you!!
(my decision was also influenced by the serendipity of capturing a couple of funny Binks pics this week ;-) ).

Mr. Mister continues to do splendidly during our infrequent test times...throwing green numbers, although he did get a blue recently-
He and Annie must be getting up to antics while I'm not looking, as she was sporting a chin rash that she passed to him :shock: ...
and the blue number (a 103) turned up when his lil chinny-chin-chin was at its worst.
Not sure what the rash was- but since we couldn't see the vetty, we tried vigorous chin scrubbies and Neosporin, and it worked.
Annie's got all her hair back, and Binks is without sores- though still a bit bald. :?

The big news from Idaho is that Miss Annie finally took the plunge and had a short but sweet play session with Binks!!! \M/
We were having a great time playing with his Tiger Tail Toy in and around the Kitty Tunnel...
and when Binksy's turn took a little too long, Annie just couldn't contain her excitement- stole the toy from me-
and initiated a rousing game of kitty chase through the house! They played for a good 4 minutes-which thrilled Binks and I,
and thoroughly pist Ol' Smudgie off. Of course, Annie was then embarrassed by her weakness, and ignored Binks for the next 2 days :lol: :lol:

All three furkids are looking healthy and happy, so life is good. They're not altogether pleased with my "service schedule"-
job interviews, temp assignments, day trips with my sis, and yard work put a serious cramp in my ability
to cater to their every whim as quickly as they'd like...but the upside is that all 3 cuddle with me at night. :-D
The last three days have been particularly busy...but what could be better than coming home worn out
and being pinned to the couch by furries that genuinely miss you when you're away?? :-D :-D

Things are looking positive on the employment front...but rather than jinx it, we're just crossing fingers and paws.

Sending wishes for love, laughter, and health this Easter to all our Lantus Family. :YMHUG:

And I got a huge belly laugh over the following pics...I had paused the DVR- and came back to find Binks "ready for his close-up, Mr. DeMille".
Thank goodness I snagged the camera- you've gotta admit the words on the screen couldn't be more appropriate for my lil miscreant!!!

well...bugger....can't get his pics to post :sad:

Thanks for the posting tip, Ann...Here's a link to the pics! :-D :-D :-D

Whaaaaaaaaa!!! I wanna see Binksy pics! angry(2)_cat

Seriously, what a great report! Paws crossed and won't even speak of possibilities! :lol: :lol: How's Tam?
 
Maybe they're too big? This often the problem. Or you can upload them to Google Docs or Facebook and put in a link.
 
waaaahhhhhh i wanna see bink's pics too! a google doc is a great idea - i have some of punkin in his profile.

congratulations on the 1 year anniversary! we're ignoring his bout of "indiscretion" - sometimes we all need people to turn a blind eye to our slip-ups! :lol:

i'll be back to check for pics! :mrgreen:
 
Hey Celi and Binksy, my very favority Manxy, next to Mags, of course! Happy one year OTJ. I love the pics. I can't believe it's been a year. Congratulations Binksy and save a place for Mags! Love ya lots!
 
YAY BINKSIE!!!!

We won't tell nobody you fell off the OTJ paddy wagon for a short time! Hope nobody called 'em to come for you! (Love the pictures Celi!)
 
Congratulations Binks and Celi, on your One Year Anniversary!
We won't mention the short fall off the wagon Celi, 'cause it wasn't his or your fault.
Besides, we can't talk; we fell off the wagon after only 3 months and can't seem to climb back on again. :roll:
 
I think Binks wants someone to call the cops on you for his bald chin :lol: :lol: :lol:

CONGRATULATIONS ON ONE YEAR!!!

So cute that Annie forgot herself and played with him - and then ignored him for two days :lol: :lol: :lol:

Thanks for hanging around and providing us with so much laughter - you rock Celi, hope you have a great easter!
 
Hey Binksy, we're proud of you! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
And you've never fallen "off da wagon" (have you? maybe it was Dorothy.)

Good show, Celi. Fingers and paws crossed for whatever it is you want them crossed for.
The pictures are great!

Hugs,

Ella & Rusty

No one saw Binks fall off the wagon. Did they? Binks didn't fall off the wagon. Cats never fall off of anything, right?
Uh, Zener falls off and over all the time. Good thing he has such a good sense of humor. :-D :-D Almost as good as Celi's. Congratulations, Binks! We are glad you like to hang out in LL, even after moving to the falls.

Happy Anniversary! I remember when your trial accidentally started last year...we were so new to the board, so everything from that time really sticks with me! If I may reminisce without elaborating, I remember that he threw up on your foot, and that triggered the chain of events that led to is trial :lol: ...one of my favorite stories.

Enjoy your celebration!

:lol: :lol: :lol: Julie- "forgiven indiscretions" are the story of my life!

Thanks for all the cheer, guys :-D

How's Tam?
Ann- your question pretty much pegged it...I must be more transparent than I thought. ;-)
I haven't shared much about Tam lately, because I just haven't been able to find anything funny or be very positive about her situation.
But two things this last week have really given me some optimism about Sis, so I'm gonna share.
One of the forum kitties Tam is really taken with is BigMac. I don't share the scary or sad LL events at the nursing home- but I did tell
her about BigMac's surgery cuz she was an RN, and I ask her medical questions all the time (she has no short-term memory,
but has scary almost perfect recall of everything that happened prior to her "brain event").

Got a call the next day from the nursing home saying that Tamara had taken BigMac's picture off her wall, took it down to breakfast-
and asked all the residents to pray for BigMac's recovery! I was so shocked that I sent a pm to Carolyn right away-
BigMac has so touched her heart that this woman (who cannot recall a conversation one hour after having it) woke up thinking about him the next morning!! :shock:

Then this evening I took the laptop up when I went to visit...was looking at some posts, and mentioned Muffin's OTJ condo-
and Tam mumbled something. When I said "What?"- she said "Muffin throws her food dish." I WAS ABSOLUTELY FLOORED!!
I showed her that video WAY BACK when Anne first posted it, and she remembered!!!
So while she has suffered quite a setback, I finally am hopeful that she will overcome this yet again. :RAHCAT

I'm telling you guys...the power of LL reaches beyond just the forum...not only do LL stories bring joy to some folks who dearly need it-
there are pictures of your furbabies hanging in many, many residents' rooms- they know "their" kitties names, and many of them tell kitty stories
to each other over and over. Y'all have shared warmth and laughter in a truly compassionate way- and Binks and I are just stunned at your kindness
and the response it has brought about.

What a heartwarming and wonderful story about Tam. She never ceases to amaze me.

Lots of luv on this special day!!
 
ROFLMAO!! I went back and read the condo. Poor Binks. I laughed at Sienne's "reciprocal yakking" comment too. I wonder if she ever tried it.

No wonder BigMac is doing so well if he's got Tam cheering for him. :-D

Happy One Year OTJ Annifursary Binks and Celi!​

OMG Celi! This is great news about Tam, and Muffin is truly honored to be remembered! :lol: And I agree with Anne - no wonder BigMac is doing so well. What a great report on the gang - love that Annie played with the Binkster!
 
What great news on Tam! :YMHUG: :YMHUG: :YMHUG: Sending Lots of Easter vines to keep the progress growing.

Oh, it was good to read those condos again! :lol: :lol: :lol: THOSE ARE WHY YOU CAN NEVER LEAVE LL!
 
Celi, it made my Easter morning to read about Tam and her ability to remember some of the LL stories. Truly amazing and miraculous. Thanks for sharing.
