My First Post as Clinic Kitty!

Wow it's been a long time since Lil' Joe has been gone. I've been so busy setting up house and getting my scent on everyone! Hopefully I will have more time on my paws now to write on my blog.

So many new things to talk about.

I went through the horrible process of Neutering. Lil' Joe told me all about it but I thought he was exagerating! He was telling the truth. My mommy's and daddy were really good about everything but I'm a little upset that they did that to me. Not that I need those things because I'm only a little boy.

I have a new sister named Krusty. Some of the people call her Dolly. She has been living with me for 5 months. She okay but she's a bratty little sister and she doesn't leave me alone. I have to hide behind my mommy's computer to get away from her. She even finds me there sometimes.

I have grown into a big boy! Some of my mommy's think I'm too big and want me to eat healthy food. I say give me more cookies!! I have a little room left to fill.

Well, I'm tired so I'm going to sleep on the reception desk. You never know what will happen to it if I'm not there! Stop by to see me some time!

Byeeeeee

My Last Post

Hello Everyone,

I know I have been a bad cat for not writing you in a while, but I have been very busy with my life in my new forever home.

I have been lucky to have lived in three homes in my short existence.

My first home was with Don, a wonderful gentleman who took me in after my furr mom left and who gave me love and my first warm meal.

My second home was with the Bridlewood Animal Hospital. There I learned how to be a kitten; how to play, how to purr, how to cuddle up for affection and how to be a brat. I owe everything to my staff at the Bridlewood Animal Hospital. They gave me life, love and taught me how to be me. If it wasn't for them, I would never have found my forever home. There, at my hospital, I met my forever mom.

I met Mom. Mom is the type of mom that every kitten or cat dreams of. She's the type of mom that won't get mad at you for jumping on the counters and stealing treats, for waking up everyone in the house at three in the morning because your brother is taunting you. She's the type of mom that gives you unconditional love. Sure, I've had alot of mom's over the year; mom's that will cuddle you and give you kisses and treats. However, these moms go away at night. Mom doesn't. She gives me a warm comforter to cuddle on, a warm lap to sleep on. I thank every one of my staff for taking care of me but I thank them most of all for giving me Mom.

I know all my fans will miss me and I'll miss them too but I have trained my replacement well. His name is Jacob and he will be the forever cat at Bridlewood Animal Hospital. Be gentle with him and give him treats and cuddles. He's a friendly cat and he loves people. He isn't too fond of big dogs but he won't tell you that. He's ashamed. I know you'll all warm up to him eventually but please don't feel sorry for me. I'm having the time of my life with Mom.

Licks and purrs,

Lil' Joe.

In and Out!

When I see a kennel, it usually mean that I'm going somewhere. When I go somewhere, it's usually to Timothy's house or Kitty's house. Sometimes, cats that come to stay at my clinic have kennels of their own. I like to play in those ones. It's fun going in and out and in and out...I can spend minutes playing with kennels! Jacob, my roommate, likes kennels too. Here are some pictures of us playing with them. In and out and in and out and in .......

I don't even care if the kennels are occupied. Sometimes I climb right into them if their owners are still in them. And the minute a cat comes out of it's kennel, I'm right in their. The cats yell at me sometimes, especially the old ones, but I don't care. It's fun playing in them and smelling them. And some of these kennels have treats in them!!

Flop!

Many of you who have met me know that I'm a flopper. I just find a spot and flop down on my side and get comfortable. It could be a counter, a kennel or the carpet in my reception area. However, finding a nice soft spot to curl up beats flopping any day.

August

My dear public, I am sorry for not writing in a while. I have been so busy with my weekend getaways and my kitten classes and my disappearing acts. It has been a blur here. There are changes going on and I am caught in the middle of it!

My weekends are always full now. I either go to Timothy's house or I go home with my assistant Donna to Kitty's house. I am never by myself on the weekends. It's fun because I get to play with my friends and sleep on their beds and eat their food. Mmmmm, I love their food.

I have a roommate right now. His name is Jacob and he's a little kitten. He is from the same place that I'm from. I think he's by mother's sister's son's son twice removed. I'm teaching him all sorts of things, like how to scratch on the benches in my waiting room, how to scratch on the carpet and how to wait by the doors until someone opens them. He doesn't know how to do many things that a kitten should know. I just taught him how to groom himself and how to bury his "you know what" in the sandbox. He's a fun guy to have around but he's too young for me sometimes. He's still a baby and sometimes all he wants to do is play when I want to watch or sleep. He'll learn though. He owns our receptionist Shannon. I'll miss him when he goes to his new house.

My newest interest is the "outside". I see it when I go to Timothy's house or Kitty's house but I never get to walk in it or explore it. I've learned how to sneak out the front door when no one is watching or when my clients are bringing their owners in. My staff always run after me when I sneak out. I don't think they want me to go out by myself. It is a little scary for a guy like me but I'm just so curious - I can't help it! My staff will ask you to please make sure that I don't sneak out. I think it's best to listen to them even though I will give you the kitty cat eyes and beg with all my might.

My friends!

These are some random pictures of my friends.

My weekend getaways!!

My best friends name is Timothy. He lives in a house with a family. I don't exactly know what a family is but I think it involves some humans living together in a building. I think my staff are a family but they don't live in my clinic. They must all live together in another building.

I met Timothy along time ago when he came in to have surgery. He was neutered like me. We played a little bit before his surgery. He told me about his great family and about the food he gets to eat. He's a lucky guy. He invited me over for a sleep over and I said yes. Can't pass up the chance to explore new places and eat new food. His person came and picked me up the next weekend.

I go over to Timothy's house almost every weekend. I have lots of fun and Timothy and I play lots of games. His people are really nice and treat me really good - almost as good as my people do! When I come home on Monday I'm always tired and sleep all day. I can't wait until I can see Timothy next weekend.
