Memorial Day Weekend

We started off the long weekend by donating blood. Here I am with Linda who is super beautiful and was super nice and also very funny.
We went for a hike at Kamiak Butte Park! After donating blood mom was supposed to take it easy and not do anything strenuous but we both wanted to go hiking!! We did not make it to the summit though, mom was really huffing and puffing and said the pack felt like it had 100 pounds of bricks in it.
Then we went to the Dahmen Barn in Uniontown! It used to be a barn with animals in it and now it is an art gallery! There is a totally cool fence made of old wheels and mom said let’s pick out our favorite wheel! It was hard to decide and then fence goes all the way around the property and it was taking me a long time and then mom said this one like a sun is nice. Here is the photo.

OMG the funniest thing happened! When we went to Kamiak to hike we parked next to Hartmut and Emily, and then when we were at the Dahmen Barn they pulled up and parked next to us !!! Emily is super gorgeous and Hartmut is very handsome but not quite as handsome as me. We discussed where to go next to meet up again but we were going back to Spokane and they were going to Pullman.

a New Foster Kitten !!! Yayyy!

OMG we picked up a new foster kitten and she is so ridiculously cute! She is a single orphan and was very scared and hissy and needs to learn that people are Okay.

After just a few days she is coming out of her hiding place all by herself and loves to have mom play with her! She is eating good and gaining weight. A creamsicle kitten!

Here I am with Katrina who works at a lab and took blood from mom to do some tests. Katrina is soooo beautiful and is super nice and even with a mask on you can tell she has a great smile!
You may have read in the news about a Tiger that was loose in Texas that belonged to someone and lived in a house. That is totally Not Cool. Tigers are wild animals and do not belong in a house or apartment! That’s crazy!

OMG !!!!! The WeinerMobile!!!

OMG we saw in the local news that the WEINERMOBILE would be in Spokane and I told mom we HAVE to go see it PLEASE PLEASE!! I will be good all weekend and won’t ask for anything else ever again!
Here it is from the other side with the door open and you can look around inside it!
Here it is from the front and notice the license plate and also the little boy to my left had a small toy WeinerMobile!!!! His Dad said they got it at Target. Hint hint mom.
OMG this is me with Nina!!! She is so beautiful and so nice! Her job is to drive all over the country in the WEINERMOBILE and meet people!! I told mom she should get a job like that and she said I would get bored riding around in it but that is not true. It is huge and has all kinds of cool seating and cabinets and fun things for Tigers to do. Better yet I could ride in the WeinerMobile with Nina.
Look what Nina gave me!!! What a great business card! It was a super day!

Covid Vaccine!

Here I am at the vaccine clinic!! This time mom remembered to take me with her! That night mom did not feel very good. She had a headache and muscle aches and was very crabby. It is best to Play Quietly when mom does not feel good.
By today mom felt a zillion times better so we went for a walk at a park where there are lots of Arrowleaf Balsamroot plants blooming. Native Americans use this plant medicinally for all kinds of things like body aches and headaches. We could have used some yesterday!!!
OMG the BEST THING happened !!!!! We adopted the hospice kitty we have been fostering for more than a year!!!! Her new name is Talia which means gentle rain. Because she likes to drink out of the faucet!! Ha ha she keeps mom really busy running water and filling bowls with fresh water.
She is such a fun cat!! Mom took her to our veterinarian to get her mats shaved off and they love her!

A Sunny Spring Weekend!

While doing errands we parked near these awesome sports cars! Mom we should totally get one of these!
The library we go to is so wonderful; since people can only visit briefly they have great ideas about how people can pick up books quickly. I LOVE the library!
We went to the John Finch Arboretum! No dogs are allowed but Tigers can visit.
Mom is trying to figure out how to take good photos with the new camera phone. She is having a hard time getting both me and the landscape in focus. I guess the previous phone was not as fancy.
It was a fantastic sunny weekend – the best weather we have had so far this year!

Vaccine!

Mom got her first covid vaccine shot but she FORGOT to take me with her! She got the shot at Multicare and they were super organized and super nice and it was very impressive. Boy was her arm sore the next day. Ha ha!
We went for a walk at Medical Lake. It is named that because the Native Americans used the lake for medicinal reasons. Notice I am wearing my Gonzaga bandana! Go Zags!
Here is a photo of sweet Jasper from better days. Jasper crossed the rainbow bridge last week and mom was very sad. Jasper was mom’s personal assistant and was always wanting to help in the kitchen or when she did computer work, We miss him a lot.

Phoebe Photo!

Here is a picture of Phoebe our new 20-year-old cat! Isn’t she pretty!

Someone brought us this amazing Little Red Wagon full of dinosaur eggs! They left a note that they love our dinos! We are going to have a lot of fun with this wagon!!!

We got a tax refund! Mom’s rule is that if we get unexpected money we have to give at least half of it to charity and mom said I could help decide where to donate it! Mom picked the local food bank which is a great idea. I wanted to pick a organization that helps Tigers so we spent a lot of time on the internet reviewing Tiger charities and we picked the Wildcat Ridge Sanctuary in Oregon. It is a beautiful location and the enclosures are awesome and full of grasses and plants and the Tigers and other wild cats look so happy!

Ping Pong!!!!

OMG the best thing happened! We had a ping pong party at David’s house!! From left to right it is Emily, Warren, Jaime (sitting down) Mack, and David. It was soooo fun! Emily is super gorgeous and the men are all so handsome. Lacey who is super beautiful was inside the house with the kids.
Another awesome thing happened this weekend!! We had an appointment to go inside the library to pick out books. The librarians have done an amazing job getting us books to read but we were so happy to be able to browse for ourselves. They only let a few people in at a time so it looks very empty.
I got a movie AND a book about PENGUINS!! These are called Macaroni Penguins! Ha ha ha!
OMG!!! We adopted a new cat today!!! Her name is Phoebe and she is 20 years old! Doesn’t she look great? She part Siamese and part Tabby Cat. Gosh it was a great weekend!

Downtown Walk!

It snows, we shovel; it snows, we shovel. Winter in Spokane!
The dinosaurs have a snowplow truck they cruise around in and one day it tipped over! Big T-Rex is getting it right side up again with some help from the bigger dinos.
This weekend while the car got its oil changed and a new battery we walked around Downtown. It was a super sunny day! It felt so good to sit in the sun and see the blue sky!
Here are some interesting buildings we saw.
In one building we passed someone filled the windows with hearts!

More Winter Weather!

It snowed a LOT! Here we are walking from the parking lot to the office last week during a Blizzard! Everyone has been shoveling snow and griping about the weather.

At home wild animals have been visiting! Here are some animal tracks in our back yard!

Some smaller animal walked all the way along the edges of a retaining wall! Mom says maybe it was a racoon or even a neighbors cat but I’m pretty sure it was a Tiger Cub!

Mom had to go to the dentists office to get her teeth impressed. Here is Amanda who is so nice and so beautiful! She did the teeth impressions and did a great job!

This weekend in the grocery store parking lot we ran into Cody!! We have not seen him in about a year! It was awesome to share news and chat. Cody is super nice and super handsome but not quite as handsome as me.
