Poked and Prodded

Hi Kitties,
Well, this morning I had to go to the kitty doctor's office. It was time for my annual checkup and I went to a new vet this time who my mommy really liked but I have to say I am not so sure. I had to get all my shots and I had to have a thermometer to measure my temperature. It was so embarrassing! I also got some heartguard medicine for worm prevention. The only good news is I did a good, good job and did not scratch or bite anyone. Also, because I am a therapy cat I got $5 off my visit fees.
Also this weekend was the library reading program! I have a BIG accomplishment. Usually, I have a room all to myself but this time they made a mistake with scheduling so I had to be in the same room with the therapy dogs. A lot of dogs were there, and I was not scared at all! I did my usual purrs and high fives for everyone! Because it is so close to the holidays, I did not have many visitors since everyone is busy getting ready for Santa Paws.
I got ready for Santa Paws too by decorating our room with a lot of bright lights and hanging up our stocking. We also set up a menorah for good measure, and we will put shoes out our window for the elves, and expect the Father Frost to come for New Years. I hope I get a lot of good gifts to eat - since we celebrate so many of the holidays it is bound to happen! This year for the holidays we adopted a goat.
Happy Hannukah!
Love,
Figaro

Mr. Figaro's appearance requested

Hi Kitties,

I have been very busy lately. Recently I got a phone call requesting my therapy cat service at another Nursing Home. The specialist thinks I will be very important. I am very hesitant to take more work though since I will be moving soon, but I am going to think about it! Also, one of my current Nursing Homes organizers called today and told my Mommie that some of my visitors ONLY come to see me and they do not like to do any other activities. She said that the families of my visitors are very surprised that they love me so much! I am very glad to bring so much happies to everyone! I can't wait to go hand out my Holiday cards to everyone next week. :)


Yesterday, it snowed. I like to watch the snow, but G-nesha has gone to hibernation (our vole). We will have to wait for G-nesha until the spring when he comes back out. I have not gone outside because it is very cold. I like to watch outside though!


Love,


Figaro

Our Pet

3 comments Posted by Figaro the Therapy Cat at 4:02 PM


Hi Kitties,

I want to introduce you all to G-nesha. G-nesha is our new vole who lives in our windowsill. He is very cute and we like to watch him. You will notice that G-nesha is very fat, also. I think he eats bugs and also pieces of plants that we planted last year. In the spring G-nesha ate the entire screen of the window so that had to be removed. Our cousin Missy briefly considered catching and eating G-nesha but we would not let her. The neighbor cat also tried to get G-nesha but we made a lot of hisses and we did not let him get G-nesha.

Yesterday I had a great time at the Nursing Home. I rubbed on everyone's legs and wished them Happy, Happy Thanksgiving. My favorite friend R.A. was there and she was so happy to see me. Also, my friend H. was there who can't see, she likes to reach out her arms for me and I get petted. I like all my friends very much.


Love,


Figgie

Happy Thanksgiving!

4 comments Posted by Figaro the Therapy Cat at 7:21 PM

Hello My Darling Turkeys,

I wish you a happy, happy Thanksgiving! My sister and I celebrated Thanksgiving with our whole family, and on Monday I am going to my Nursing Home to spread Thanksgiving wishes over there. We got to eat a lot of Turkey, and then my mom also fed us some Tofurkey, which everyone says tastes like real Turkey but blechh we did not like it! Instead we ate real turkey with lots of gravy, and there are leftovers for the entire week. :) 

Here are some things I am very, very thankful for this year:

1. Being with our family our apaa for this holiday
2. Being able to visit people and help them feel happier through my purrs and cuddles
3. Having a wonderful mommie who loves us
4. Having so many friends who follow my bloggy and leave such nice comments!
5. Having a lot of delicious foods and having a warm bed where we can sleep and purr
6. Our new pet who we named G'nesha. He is a really awesome vole who lives in our windowsill. 

Love and giblets,
Figgie

Visiting the Library

4 comments Posted by Figaro the Therapy Cat at 1:13 PM

Hi Kitties,


This weekend I had an excellent visit to the library! My mommie made a scrapbook of my photos since I was a baby, with interesting things written about my life, and the kids at the library got to read it. They liked that very much.
Also, some funny news. My mommie has to go get s-h-o-t-s because it is a new requirement that both me and her get shots for me to visit the Nursing Home! She hates shots but she is going to have to do it, because visiting the Nursing Home is one of my favorite things.
I plan to have a lot of TURKEY this week (how about you??) !!!
Love,
Figgie Pudding

Another Fun Time at the Nursing Home

3 comments Posted by Figaro the Therapy Cat at 3:00 PM


Hi Kitties,

This afternoon I had a delightful visit to the Nursing Home. Only a few of my friends were there because it was snack-time. I got to be petted by a lot of my friends who were very happy to see me. I also gave a few high-fives. But I did not stay long, because the rain outside made me get a little bit anxious. My furs got a little bit wet! After I got back I did some relaxing on the floor of my pink room. I feel very relaxed!

But I have been getting better in the car. When my mommie goes to her new job, we will have to do a lot more car-travelling so I am getting used to it. I hope my sister gets her own car-seat because I do NOT want to share!


Love,


Figlet

Fluffy and Sweet

Hi Kitties,

Here is a beautiful photo of me. I think I look like a mancat model. I am very fluffy and sweet.

Last week-end my mommie was visiting our friend who has a cat named Fish. Fish is like me only dark orange and he enjoys eating as much as I do!

This week we have a lineup of nursing home visits and library visits, I will keep you up to date as they come up.

Love,

Crunchy times

4 comments Posted by Figaro the Therapy Cat at 3:30 PM

Haaalooo, kitties!
We spent the weekend raking the crunchy leaves in the backyard, although my sister was scared and stayed out of the way of my mischiefs.
Some news on the home front. My cousin Dasha (our parakeet) got a boyfriend. His name is Sasha and they sit around tweeting and preening each other all day. They are so cuddly it makes me want to throw up a hairball ;) (because I am a Mancat and I do not do this love kind of stuff)
Peace, Figaro

Halloween Adventures

6 comments Posted by Figaro the Therapy Cat at 10:04 AM


Hi Kitties,
I dressed as a ladybug for Halloween. Do you like my outfit? I think it is very cute. I went to the Nursing Home for trick-or-treating and I got a lot of treats, before my official therapy visit. I got a lot of compliments for my costume, everyone said I am very cute.

At my therapy visit, I took off my costume and got petted. I had a lot of visitors. I also had a few people with oxygen tanks. At first the oxygen tank noises were scary for me so I had to take a break and sit on my mom's lap without being petted. But then I ate some treats and felt better, so I let everyone pet me and now I am happy to say I am not afraid of oxygen tanks! They took me by surprise, that's all.
The only sad part was that my best friend R.A. did not want to pet me because she was having a bad day. She did not remember how much she loves me! I meowed and asked her to pet me, but she pet me a little bit and then went back to her room. I hope she is feeling better next time I come and she can pet me because I am her favorite.
Love,
Figaro

Nursing Home over the Weekend

4 comments Posted by Figaro the Therapy Cat at 6:08 PM


Hi Kitties,
This weekend I went to my Nursing Home on Saturday. It was very relaxing and I had about 15 visitors, as always there were old friends and new friends. I spent most of my time getting petted, and then ate some treats. Do you see my big treat container? I have had this treat container full of treats for a very long time. But today my treats are ALL GONE! I will ask my Mommie to buy new treats.
The weather is getting colder here, which means Halloween is coming up soon, and a lot of parties. I am going to dress up as a bumble bee again and my sister is going to be a lady bug. Do you have a costume yet?
Love,
Figaro
