Furry Fighter Day 2012

Well, it's been a year since we posted anything,...shocking!  Thanks for popping by and seeing us on such an emotional day...it means a lot.  We still miss Stormie loads, but we cherish the time we had with her as a result, she was one awesome Meezer!

Not much has changed really.  I had a little scare last year when I went to the vet cos I was being sick every now and then...obviously cos of what Storm died from any regular sicking-up is a cause for instant concern, however scans didn't reveal anything to worry about too much.  There was a spot near my kidney on the scan, but the only way to find out what it is was to cut me open..and being a grand old gent of 16 years old that seemed a little pointless and unfair on me really, so we did nothing...and so far everything is OK.  My annual tests did show some very early stage renal issues (totally normal for an old boy like me) so I now eat Renal foods as these are better for me.

Tigger remains well, he is now 17 years and a bit old...! We are very close, always sharing beds and we really do compliment each other.  Tigger isn't as boisterous as the lovely Timmy was, so our play-fights are rather half-hearted and soon end when one of us just walks away! Tigger, as you may recall, was incredibly shy and nervous when he came to live with us, but he is like a different cat now - he talks all the time (his voice is hilarious, he sounds like a sheep - see video below) and likes strokes and follows Meowmie about, he is still not a lap-cat though, he will sleep next to Meowmie on the bed however.

Well, I will try and update a bit more regularly than once a year...but for now I hope you enjoy the video below and the piccies of me and Tigger!

He is a lucky cat to have you to bring him out of his shell. We think of you all often--more than on Furry fighter day.

Hello, Castle and Tigger - it's nice to meet you guys. We were just over at Storm's blog before this.
We are glad to hear you two are doing well; you are very beautiful kitties.

Motor Home Cats said...

Castle and Timmy, how wonderful to see you again. We loved the video of you both calling. It makes us miss our brothers (Tiki and Tavi) so much. It is good that you both have each other. We still miss Stormie too.

Castle and Tigger, glad you boys snuggle together and are doing well. We remember Storm and Timmy (soft purrs) as we know you do. Purrs.

Tiger Lily said...

We miss Storm too, beautiful Castle.

We are glad you are not having problems other than getting ... ahem ... more mature. Zeke is 16 now too. Our VET said he is very healthy. The only problems he has are a little difficulty seeing, a little arthritis and selective hearing loss. He still walks around the block with Mom and loves to go camping.

{{{HUGS}}} to you and your Meowmie and Tigger

prrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrs and tail wags,
Zeke, Sushi and Tiger Lily

Happy Gotcha Day to Tigger.

So glad you updated and that you are doing OK for your age. We are sending healing purrs for the renal issues and hope your new foods keep you healthy for a long time to come.

Storm will always live in our memories. Purrs of comfort over Storm's going to the Bridge, Storm will always be missed.

Mostly just checking in. The CB listed today as the Gotcha Day for Stormie & Timmy. Thought it couldn't hurt to say 'HI' to Castle Pants and Tigger whiles I was at it. Purrrrrring that you two and your Meowmie's are all still hanging in there.
