Champ Meets His Family

I was awoken from my first nap by something wet on my face, not sure what it was but it felt good. All of a sudden the darkness went away and I was able to see the things around me for the first time. It  was my Mom's big pink tongue licking me from head to toe, mystery solved. She had a big smile on her face and love in her eyes, I knew I would be safe with her around! She certainly had her paws full because I spotted a bunch of brothers & sisters piled up all around me, I was told later that there were eleven of us all told most were black like myself with a few chocolate ones thrown in for good measure. Mom spent most of her time tending to us making sure we were clean and warm, her tongue never stopped licking. I was glad to have a big family with plenty of playmates to hang out with, and I look forward to getting to know each one of them but I could see a problem brewing, with a limited number of dishes available at meal time! I am sure things will work out. Well I wasn't the only one thinking about dinner since a line was beginning to form and making its way to the buffet table. I put it in top gear and started to throw some elbows to stake me out a good spot, you'd better be quick with this bunch or you would have to wait for the 2'nd serving. I'm glad it was all you eat because I was real hungry and I ate till my belly was about to pop. I no sooner backed away from the buffet than my place was taken by one of my siblings. He was really hungry so I let him have at it. There were a couple of guys already laid out taking a nap my thoughts exactly, so I crawled over and joined them for some much needed ZZZZ's!! We'll play and get to know each other later. woof, woof....

Champ's First Memories - The Beginning!

I've been thinking lately about my very early days in the pet world and trying to recall my very first thoughts. I can remember being in a totally dark hot and wet place very wet. It was so dark I was unable to make out what or who was around me or their numbers. The room was filled to capacity with body's   pressed tight against me. I had to keep kicking my legs to hold claim to my spot, not knowing then that marking your spot was going to be an everyday thing. From what I could tell there had to be a bunch of either friends or foes around me considering the number of time I've been poked and prodded. All of a sudden I felt a cool breeze and had the feeling I was falling, followed by an abrupt stop. Not to sure what just happened and  I  was in no pain so nothing had been broken throughout the short ordeal. I now had plenty of room to wiggle around but I still couldn't tell what was around me since it was still pitch black, at least the kicks and pokes had almost stopped. I figured a meal would be served directly so a nap was the game plan till it arrived. Just as I found a suitable spot something huge and wet started to push me all around rolling me over and over from my head to my tail giving me a long over due cleaning,  it sure felt good to get my first bath,squeaky clean from  head to toe!  After what seemed like an eternity one final flip and on my belly I landed. I was ready for chow but to my surprise there was no dish service available here it was buffet  style only. I thought this will have  to be changed  to strictly dish service because I' am a big tipper and who tips a buffet line anyway. Planning on going with the flow for now I attempted to stand  and  make my way to the buffet? This was not to be since I discovered my tiny legs were like rubber and I couldn't stand, what to do? No problem I'll  just crawl on my belly to the chow line. Apparently I wasn't the only one with that plan since I once again had to mark and fight for a spot at the buffet table. I latched on and held on as tight as I could, hang on or starve I thought.. I was determined  to fill my little belly for the first time. When done I will  roll over and take that well needed nap,  plus my brain is tired of thinking I'll reflect again tomorrow. So far life is good! woof

Champ Has a 3 Woof Day

I was afraid to wake up today,  the creepy guy scared off Honey Bear yesterday and she wasn't home when I got into bed next to Ed last night. He told me not to worry that Honey Bear had never spent a whole night away from home, heck she likes the good Life's Abundance food Ed gives her to even miss just one meal. That made me feel a little better since I've seen her smack Sassy or Pooh Bear if either one gets to close to her dish before she's done filling her belly. It seems as though the morning came sooner than usual, something was different it was still dark outside when Ed got up, that was not at all like him to get up early and in the dark. Just then I heard the sweet purring of my best friend Honey Bear, she had been at the foot of the bed all night long. I gave her face a good licking as a good morning hello so glad to see you! She likes me to lick her face, cleans up the sleepers. She said that she fell asleep in the shed and came to bed sometime after midnight and  that I was sleeping so well she didn't want to wake me. It's going to be a beautiful day to spend with buddy in the yard taking in some rays. Honey Bear explained why it was still dark this morning, something called day light savings time,I'll be damned if I know how Ed's going to save any day light, what would he put it in, how long before it goes bad. I can't figure people out some times, saving something that shows up most every day. Oh Oh I hear the Treat jar rattling, time for a snack before breakfast than a nap afterwards, truly a 3 Woof day!! WOOF, WOOF WOOF. Later....

Oh Where is Our Honey Bear

I Love Honey Bear Close

Well today started off great, slept in, had a big bowl of food waiting for me in the laundry room so I can eat in peace without Sassy showing herself. It was strange to see Ed getting yard tools, saws and a ladder out of the building this early or even at all since he always tries to beg out of any kind of physical work. Then I heard a scooter come up the drive with a creepy looking guy on it, he must be lost I thought, no problem since Ed will handle him. I'm not often wrong if ever but Ed went out and greeted the guy and started showing him things he wanted done in the yard. Things went down hill from there, right off when Honey Bear took a look at the guy she took off as if her tail was on fire. Out the pet door over the fence onto the woods, fast as lighting, with pure fear in her eyes. She spooks easily and I didn't think much more about it at the time. Well Ed said he had things to do in the office and that he would check back with the guy in a couple of hours to see how things were going and he should just holler if he needed " anything". You can guess how that went, " not to good". This guy bothered Ed a half a dozen time in the first hour causing Ed's blood pressure to boil over. The guy couldn't even open a 9'' pruning saw, if I had thumbs I'd have shown the creep how to open it. Ed was ready to tell the guy to get lost but then Ed's cell rang, a message from creepy guys girl friend to come home at once to handle a family problem. Ed was pleased and he turned to enter the house when creepy guy said he needed to get some gas for his Scooter which gets 100+  MPG to make the 10 mile trip home. Ed turned quickly, thought he was going to squash the guy but reached into his pocket and threw the guy a 20 dollar bill and said see'ya. Just then a smile came across Ed's face as he checked the time on his cell, " the Liquor store" just opened creepy guy was thirsty . Honey Bear come home!  I miss you!  Woof Woof.

Neko gets a Make Over

Neko Is a rescue Ed got when His Dad died in 2010. Dad lived in NJ and rescued Neko with the help of a pet friendly shelter called  11th Hour Rescue Rockaway NJ. Well Ed put Neko in the back seat of the Ford truck and to NC they came. About 11hours later Neko arrived and walked in my house as if he owned it, just looked around drank out of my water dish and demanded a treat. Upon close inspection he was an unkempt creature with the breath that could put a Water Buffalo to his knees. After a few trips to our vet Michael ,at Graham Animal Hospital for a full set of tests, shots and the much needed dental work. He next went to the groomer for a bath and blow dry and when he returned he was a new man looking pretty handsome. That was about a year ago and once he knew I was the top male in the house things went along smoothly. Ed found a new Groomer close to the house called Puppy Love -n- Style owned by Daphne Younger, she seems to really care for her customers and works hard to meet their needs. She also let Ed put a small display of his Life's Abundance Dog food in the shop. Neko is going to get the full treatment from Daphne this week.
Ed & Jean have been giving Neko some extra supplements, Skin & Coat and Agility pills every day. It's amazing how much his coat has improved and in fact a bare spot on his tail has healed and hair has filled the spot over. His dandruff is gone and his coat shines "almost" as much as my coat.The Agility Supplement has helped his arthritis a whole lot he even tries getting t in  the bed with me, I let him know right away that was not going to happen!
I wish I could ride along when Ed takes him to Daphne's but Ed said his truck has a One Dog Rule! They will leave soon so I'll beg some treats from Jean then take a nap. Woof for now!

Under The Weather

It seems as though Ed picked up a flue bug this weekend, all he does is cough. It was so bad I had go and sleep in Jean's bed.  It's pretty crowded since Star & Coco think they own the best spots but I pushed my weight around and made me a comfortable spot. Things were running smoothly until you guested it, Sassy showed up and went straight for my tail. That wasn't going to work so back to Ed's bed I went. It seems while I was gone Ed drank a bunch of Robitussin and his coughing was a lot less. I assumed my position, I like to spoon and keep Ed warm. Things worked out fine and I convinced Ed to call his doctor which he did, his appointment is 9:15 tomorrow, hope he lets me ride Shotgun!  Good Night & Woof for now!

Can you trust Female Cat's?

I was on the couch chewing my favorite bone, just waiting for Ed to return home from Wal-mart. Knowing all to well that Sassy was going to get the sassy attitude shaken right out of  her when Ed saw her website. Well  he came in looked at the laptop screen but didn't say a word, I thought he was too mad to speak so I just sat back with a huge smile on my face waiting for the top of Ed's head to explode.  Sassy was hunched  over with terror in her eyes under the living room coffee table. Well  you won't believe what happened next, Ed went over to Jean and thanked her for setting up Sassy's website because he wasn't sure when he could 've gotten to it since my "junk" as he called it was taking up so much of his time. Jean just played dumb and just said your welcome dear and turned to smile at Sassy. Than Sassy jumped on my tail and ran under the bed. That was their plan all along, you just can't trust females. I 've suddenly got a head ache and need a nap so Woof  for now!

Sassy Opens a Life's Abundance Business

I just can't believe the nerve of this little Lady, opening up a website without Ed's OK! I'm going to sit back and watch it hit the fan when Ed finds out, it's not going to be pretty. Sassy doesn't have a clue about running a business, all I've ever seen her do is sleep-poop-chase me and the Bear Sisters then sleep-poop, you can sorta get the idea. Ed has more than enough to do dealing with my Pet Food Stuff  than to be dealing with stinking CAT food. Click on this link to go to her site. www.sassyscatdish.com/.  Look it over and order some healthy food for your cat. Then come back here and let me know what you think?  I'll keep updated, right now I hear a Nap calling! So Woof for now!!
