Hi everyone! I want to thank Mary in Ohio for solving the mystery yesterday of why they only use a certain part of the mole.
Apparently that is the only part that is left when they get done playing whack-a-mole. Poor things.
Now I have another mystery. Mom said she was going to church last night with her niece and the baby ( you know the one Grammie likes better than me) . Well, she came home with ashes on her forehead- do you think she snuck out to start smoking? I know she gave up chocolate for Lent,but I hope she isn’t going to smoke instead.
I got to see my Grammie on Monday which was nice, I love her so very much. I wish she would visit more often though, but she has a cold ( she didn’t catch it from me- can you guess who she got it from?)
I discovered something very nice this week. Daddy hurt his hip and was using a heating pad so I shared it with him. 
Then when he got up, I took it over. 
Penny got a package from Toby today: 
Mom says I have to let her show you what she got on Sunday. And I will show you the beautiful card my purrince sent me.
I am thankful for my purrince and my Grammie and my Mom and Dad and all my brothers and sisters too. That is why I am joining Pepi Smart Dog’s Thankful Thursday blog hop.
See you Sunday and be sure to stop by Saturday when Mom is starting a big giveaway worth $100.
TW used one of those heating pads when her back was bad but I stayed away from it. I think you need to reclaim your Grammie from that sticky little kid.
Why did you stay away from it? Heating pads are great. I do need to get my Grammie back- any suggestions.
Oh those human heating pad things are the best! I love to curl up with my mom when she is using one on her back.
They sure are 🙂
Hoping Daddy’s hip feels better soon, but at least you benefited!! catchatwithcarenandcody
It is better, I hope you are feeling better too.
Your Grammie got that cold from the new baby?? Sheesh. Hope your Daddy’s hip heals up and feels better soon.
Ashes?? Maybe she went out and was cleaning a chimney…
Smoking leaves ashes evfurry where, so I wouldn’t worry about that:)
Yes, the baby had her first cold and Grammie got it from her and so did Mom. My Dad feels better. Mom claims she got the ashes from church, but that doesn’t sound right.
Your friend Mary in Ohio is pretty clever. I love sharing the heating pad with mom but she hasn’t used it all winter.
Yes, she is. I wish your Mom would let you use the heating pad.
Well phooey – apparently Feedly hasn’t been giving me your blog posts since the beginning of February. Then I got a whole bunch of them today! So I think I am caught up with what is going on with you now!
That Feedly is a pain. I am sorry about that, I wish we knew how to fix it.
We hope your Dad is feeling better soon! 🙁 But you’re doing a great job nursing him!
He is feeling better -thank you.
Heating pads are da best!
They are, only took me 13 years to discover that.
I’m glad Penny’s package arrived safely!!! Here’s a hint as to what’s inside: don’t put it next to the heater!!! I hope dad is feeling better soon, but I would sneak that heating pad sway from him as often as you can! And I’m sure your Grammie loves you just as much as the baby!!! Pawkisses!! Toby
Mom was very happy to get chocolate and she will save it for Easter because she gave up chocolate for Lent. Penny couldn’t wait any longer so she opened her gift and loves it- and the card with her handsome Toby on it. She says Yes, she will be your Valentine. XO
I hope your daddy’s hip is soon better. You look very comfy sharing his heating pad.
Feedly has decided to give me all the notifications for your posts today. I will still keep getting them by email as well though because it will probably happen again.
Well thanks for sharing the answer to the question about moles! I was curious about that too! As for discovering the wonderfulness of a heating pad – I KNOW!!!! Aren’t they fabulous? I see it’s snowing on your blog – I hope it stays THERE and doesn’t come HERE!
Love and Hugs, Sammy
We are sick of snow, Mom should turn this one off. That is interesting about the moles- I have never tried any moleasses-have you? Mom needs it for her bread recipe. XO
I’m sorry your dad’s hip isn’t feeling great. But, at least you got to enjoy the warm comforts of the heating pad, Phoebe! This is a lovely Thankful Thursday post. Purrs!
My Dad feels better, must be my healing purrs. XO
Oh we bet that heating pad was NICE! And we’re sure your Grammie luffs you very, very much too.
Thank you, she loves me, but not as much as her great grandchild.
Glad I have a warming pad (like your..er…your dad’s heating pad, only for outside only) for Sweetie and Patty in The Cat Hotel during this very cold weather, but then the temps go way up again after…yippee!
I am glad your temps are up again, ours are going to be bitter cold for a few days and we worry about all the ferals and strays.
Oh bast! Those heating pads are the best. Hope your Daddy’s hip is better soon. Grammie needs to spend more time with you away from that sticky bean.

His hip is better, my healing purrs must have worked. 🙂

♥♥♥
Grammie just got her hair done today, she will never do that. And I don’t think Dad will either, but he did have haddock for dinner.
Oh colds are the worst and there are a lot of our friends suffering with them.
WE hope grammie feels better and Dad’s hip is soon well.
Hugs madi your bfff
Dad is better, Grammie is still sick and now Mom is. Humans are pathetic.
You are sure sweet to share the heating pad with your Daddy. That will help him feel better much quicker!
Yes, it did help.

Heating pads are the best. Our mom uses one sometimes, and we always try to take it over. Phoebe, did you know that some humans provide heating pads just for their cats? We wonder how to convince our humans to do that. That sounds like a pawsome giveaway. We’ll be certain to check it out. XOCK, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo p.s. Hope your Grammie is well soon so she can come and see you.
We like heating pads too! We even have one set up in one of our baskets. Our humans are very well trained here. We hope your Dad’s hip feels better after all that nice heat and kitty love 🙂
the critters in the cottage xo
My Dad’s hip is better -thank you. Penny and mIllie have a heating pad in the kitchen and we have 2 heated blankets, but I like Dad’s best. Mom can’t wait to find out what breed of puppy you have.
We need to have the mom get the heating pad out for us. It’s gonna be so cold this weekend.
Pee ess…we just realized we haven’t been getting your blog in our reader anymore for some reason…until today…when we got like a week’s worth of posts all at once…very strange.
I guess Feedly is acting up. I am sorry, I wish I knew how to fix it. I hope your Mom gets the heating pad out for you.
Oh your Mom has ashes on her head for Ash Wednesday!
WE hope your Dad is better but we are so glad you discovered the heating pad.
That is what she said, but I wasn’t sure. My Dad is better- thank you 🙂
Giving up chocolate for smoking??? Now that’s crazy talk 😉 That heating pad sounds yummy…
It is, I guess she really got them at church. I love the heating pad.
Phoebe, that’s a lovely post! You’re so cute on the heating pad! We hope your daddy’s hip is feeling better. Penny looks cute too.
Pierrot was so happy to receive his Valentine’s package from Snowball. Thank you! We will also post on Sunday.
He is feeling better, thank you. Penny says thank you. Snowball sends Pierrot a kiss.
Oh no on your daddy’s hip. I have a heated blanket here (it’s SO cold where we live) and the herd baby loves to sleep on and under it too. A heating pad would be just as awesome.
His hip is better. Heated blankets are even better than heating pads 🙂
