Last Night:
500 PMPS
506 +3.5

J.D. has eaten well today.

I actually stayed up until midnight last night, for once, and so had a long btb this morning and so didn't test until +6.5.

J.D. is still going around looking for food and it's almost +10 now, so he can't just be fed. I gave him some freeze dried shrimp at +9.25, and then he went around checking out the empty food bowls.
He has now climbed up his cat tree looking for more cat treats. It is +9.75, so he just got some more shrimp.
I guess he feels himself dropping and it's hard to go against his natural urges to eat, when it's so late in the cycle.
I have some chicken breast thawed out, so I will boil that, and give him some in a bit.

Last night after work, I went to WalMart as that was the only store open after 6:00pm. I had to buy half and half for my morning coffee as that is a necessity. I bought two medium sized doggy jackets and we went for a walk with the doggy jackets on, late in the evening. I wasn't sure if we would keep the jackets as doggy clothes often don't fit cats that great.
Ginger's fit her pretty good. And it's pink with leopard colored collar and accents. She gets very cold outside, even though she has long hair, it's all silky top coat and not much under coat. Her jacket goes right up to her tail but not over it.
J.D.'s navy blue jacket with fleece collar and fake pockets at the hips, left about 2 and 1/2 inches forward of his tail uncovered. He doesn't have much meat back there in his hind end, and so I will probably return his. But, they have sizes XXS, XS, S, M (and I didn't see any L). If I can find a size L for J.D. that just seems so weird as he is a cat, not a German Shepherd.

Anyway, it's been a nice sleep in morning, and a relaxing day today. Tonight we are supposed to start getting snow, and all through until Friday. On Friday they predict it will get to -1 :shock:
I put a bunch of bird food out and the birds are coming to eat. I also put a bunch of peanuts out and I have not seen even one squirrel this morning. I wish they would hibernate during these really cold cold spells as I always feel so sorry for them being so cold. Maybe they hibernate for short periods and that is why they are not coming to get the peanuts.

I guess I should get the cats out for a walk before the sun sets. And then boil some chicken.

I am wishing all of my friends and family on FDMB a wonderful 2014.

Happy New Year, Dyana, J.D. and Ginger!!!

I am so happy to hear that J.D. is eating well today!
That's the best of all the things our kitties can do to make us happy. :-D

That's too funny J.D. needs a size L doggy jacket. :lol:
I hope you can find a jacket that fits him.

J.D. is on the move today!!! The jackets sound SO cute. I hope you find one that fits J.D.

I have mixed emotions about the upcoming snow...I hate snow. But, I'm still in staycation mode, and kinda want a snow day from work, even though it means we lose a day of sales. But the -1...that I could totally leave behind.

Have a great evening with the kitties, and Happy New Year, Dyana!

Love the doggy jackets!!! I hope you had a peaceful evening and a great day. A btb is always a treat. You deserve it and more for all you do.

Keep on coming down JD.
 
Re: 01/01 J.D. PMPS 231

The kitties had a short walk, without jackets, and shared a plate of boiled chicken breast when we got home at about +10.5.
At PMPS, I took a bowl of left over food from this afternoon, and added a bunch of water and made it soupy. J.D. ate what I thought was his fill of that while sitting on the couch and then got up to go lay in the linen closet. I took some steak slices and picked it into little bitty pieces and added it to the FF soup and he is going to town on it now.

I just got up to check on him and it appears he drank all the water and maybe ate all the steak from the bowl, but there is still a lot of food left. He is washing his face now, so that usually means it was a good meal.

Happy New Year Dyana!

Your kitties continue to amaze me - not only do J.D. and Ginger go for walks on a leash with you, J.D. goes to work with you and travels the country, now you can put clothing on them and they just chill with it and go about their usual walk - Wow :lol: I would love to see a picture of their new outfits :-D And I am excited because I was able to get Cleo into her new soft carrier without her peeing all over! :lol: :lol:
Sounds like you had a relaxing day, hope your night is wonderful too~

:lol: Coffee just isn't coffee without half-and-half. I was up in New Jersey several years back in April. We were fine once the sun came up later in te day, but wow was that crisp morning breeze something to behold. We are all down here thinking end times because it was in the twenties in November. We rarely see twenty in December! I think -1 would surely kill us.

Happy New Year!

Yea on J.D.'s appetite. The cats probably look so cute in their jackets.
 
Re: 01/01 J.D. PMPS 231

Happy New Year!! I hope 2014 is great. The jackets sound like a great idea. I had to giggle that JD needs a L. Have a wonderful night Dyana!
 
Re: 01/01 J.D. PMPS 231

YAY! on J.D. eating! New coats?! :cool: You'll have to post pictures. I wish there was an accurate sizing chart for our fur-kids. I've bought a harness (or two) and costume (or two) but can never get the fit I'm looking for. I'm tempted to take them to Pet Smart and try them on; I'm sure my guys would l-o-v-e that. :roll: :roll:

How fortunate J.D. is have a mom that cooks! :-D Sure hope he doesn't tell Hershey such people exist!!! :lol:

Have a wonderful 2014 -

Libby (& Hershey, too!)
 
Re: 01/01 J.D. PMPS 231

I second Libby - coat pictures sound cute. Sounds like you had a great day today - and so did JD. :-D :-D

Best wishes for 2014 to the early morning crew!

I took J.D. in to a Pet Valu once to try him on for a harness. It was embarassing. He had to go to the dog department.
Trying to find him a harness that fit him, but was dainty and cat like at the same time and not 1 inch wide like most of the dogs use. And, he got loose :? between harness fittings, but luckily he didn't run, and we were able to catch him quickly before he went into their back stockroom area.

Off to bed for us. It's late, and I have to work tomorrow. The travel alone will be exhausting tomorrow.
