No Comments on Cats Watching Workers In Your Home

Curiosity And Your Cats

Mt cat Winchester followed the workers around the house, and they paid attention to him. He got under one of the worker’s feet, and his tail got stepped on. He let out a loud wail, and I came to see what had happened to him, and he acted like he could not walk. I did not buy that routine, and then he took off running. Winchester delighted in watching the workers and trying to escape when they opened the door. He never was able to escape under their watchful eyes. Some of my cats hid most of the day, and the others decided it was time for a long catnap.

Winchester And His Attic Adventure

Winchester ran up the step ladder to the attic and then leaped into the attic. He started meowing loudly as if to say help me get down. I called out to him and told him to jump on the ladder, and he did and made it down safely. He did not like stepping on the insolation, so the attic adventure was short.

Sherlock And His Cupboard

Sherlock slept deep in his cat bed in the kitchen cupboard next door. I could hardly see him in there, and that is what he wanted. The workers passed him by, and he was very contented nesting in his cat bed.

My Other Cats Watching And Observing Workers

Peter will quickly look around the corner to see what is happening and then return to his heated cat building. Faith will not run, but she watches from a heated windowsill cat bed. Tammy and Tigress mostly slept except to eat or use the litter box. Hilford and Mr. Gray gave all of their tools a once over. Lizzie tried to sleep in her cat bed, but her bed was right next to the attic, so she could hear the tools and see what they were doing at all times. Nicole stayed in her cat building until the coast was clear. Addi slept on top of a table in the house next door. She could see them coming and going constantly.

My House Cats Observing Repairs In My House

All of my three housecats are shy except around me. Cali will watch and meow in her Siamese voice. Conrad is afraid of everyone but me, so he listens to their conversations. Garfunkel likes to rub on their legs, but he does not want to be touched. When I had Sebastian, he followed repairers everywhere and acted like a supervisor. He was a beautiful people-person cat and got along well with everyone as he had a pleasant and kind personality. He was a very easygoing cat with an even temperament. I once had a purebred Siamese cat named Sugar, and she was too curious for her good sometimes. She got under a new bathtub, and luckily, it was supported well, or it could have shifted and landed on her and killed her. The worker told me, and I ran frantically and got her out of harm’s way. Watch your cats when you must repair things in your home so they do not get injured or harmed.

Greed

No Comments on Greed

Greedy People

A greedy person wants more than he needs or will ever be able to use in life. People should take what they need and leave what they don’t need for someone less fortunate. I have seen some people drive up to a church for free food that are very wealthy people. I would be ashamed to do such a terrible thing, but they have no ethics. They should feel blessed that they don’t need help and let those that need food desperately get what they need. Greedy people are generally better off than they think they are, and they will take advantage of those less fortunate than they are. I have no time for greedy people; they should only take what they need and not be like greedy pigs.

God Does Not Like Greedy People

God wants you to share the fruits of your labor with those less fortunate than you are. One farmer in the Bible stored up his grain to get more money, and the weevils got in and ate up most of his grain. Being too greedy will cost you much when it is all said and done. God wants us to give one of our extra coats to one without any coat at all. Do not take every piece of candy for yourself because it is free. Take only two pieces of candy at the very most. Be generous with your time and make time for others. If you only want to do your own thing when you are with someone else, that is greedy. Jesus laid down his life to save us from our sins. Jesus was not mean in any shape or form as he laid down his life to save humankind from death for our sins.

Greed Is Uncalled For

We live in a land of plenty, so everyone should take only what he needs to survive, as that is all we need. Most people that go to a salad bar have their plates overflowing with food. They soon realize their eyes are larger than their stomachs when they reach their table. Most of the food they take gets thrown away and is wasted. They should have considered how many people could have eaten the food because they could not. I have seen people sneak in the back door of a rummage sale to scope out the bargains before they have even opened. That is being greedy as they should wait in line like everyone else. People have fought over items on Black Friday. Women have about pulled each other’s hair out over some object that no one will even want the following year. They are greedy when they act like animals to get what they want. Be humble and kind and try to help others.

Be Giving And Grateful That You Have Been Blessed In So Many Ways

Give to charities that you can trust to help others. There are a lot of people that need supplies and food desperately for daily survival. Think of those in need, and never let greed take over.

What Kind of Personalty does Your Cat Have

What Kind of Personality does Your Cat Have

No Comments on What Kind of Personality does Your Cat Have

Kohl

Kohl takes after his Mother. Kohl’s Mother was an easygoing cat with a pleasant personality. Kohl’s Mother loved to be around people and was not shy. Kohl looks identical to his Father. Kohl is a large, well, muscled, neutered male cat. Kohl loves to sit on my lap and purr away.

Conrad and Family

Conrad takes after his Mother. Conrad’s Mother is very shy and does not want any human being to pick her up or hold her. She hides from people and will only come out to eat the food put in bowls for her to eat. Conrad’s Father was also on the shy side. Conrad only lets me hold him. He will not come out for other people as he is too scared for the company of most humans. His brother and sister are much worse than he is. His brother Peter hides behind a board next door when anybody comes over. His sister Nicole will look at me from around the corner. Conrad is genuinely a one-person cat. I love him dearly, and he returns the favor.

Garfunkel and Simon

Garfunkel is shy but will still come out and look at any visitors I may have. His brother Simon was a little bit more outgoing with people. Garfunkel’s Mother was dumped on a lady’s doorstep in Wisconsin. She took pity on the pregnant Mother cat-to-be. She helped raise her four kittens by giving them extra food and care. She had put a sign up in a restaurant that she was looking for a good home for the four kittens. Luckily I saw her character in the restaurant and adopted Simon and Garfunkel from her.

Cali

Cali feels that she must rule the roost. She bosses other cats around, and they get fed up with her Siamese ways, which she cannot help. She gives out a frightening meow, and any other cat on my lap runs for the hills. She is very friendly with humans and some cats that seem to understand her Siamese temperament.

Winchester

He is the top cat next door and sleeps way up high on a cat hammock by the window to prove it. As my other cats walk past him and they rub against him. He seems to get along with my other cats now that he is head of the household.

Addi and Family

Addi is very friendly, but her children are shy and very cautious of people. There Grandfather, Onyx, did not trust people. Onyx was an outdoor cat who lived to be 18 or older. He was part Siamese and domestic shorthair. Peter is the Father of Addi’s kittens, and Onyx is his Father.

Faith

She is an amiable short, and portly cat. She gets along fine with all of my cats now. She decided to get in a fight one day with Winchester. She and Winchester are now friends.

Cats definitively take on the personality of their Mother or their Father. You will have an outgoing cat, a shy cat, or a cat between the two characters.

Unattended

Gardens And Trees

A weedy garden does not produce much, and the weeds flourish, robbing the vegetables of the necessary nutrients. The weeds will shade the plants, making your garden look 100% uncared for. Trees need constant pruning, or the suckers will grow, and the tree will get sickly looking. A tree needs a lot of light to the main branches, or the leaves may wilt up, or the fruit may drop off a fruit tree. A fruit tree will not produce much, and its fruit will be tiny and not tasteful. Dead branches left on a tree will swing back and forth in the wind, and they could fall on someone and kill them. Dead branches get bugs and insects in them, and they can fly in healthy areas of the tree and multiply and destroy the whole tree. Gardens and trees need a caretaker to be valuable and productive. If left unattended, you have no trees to put oxygen back into the air and no fresh produce to eat from your garden or fruit trees.

People

If people are left unattended, they get sick or ill. If a child is left alone, they could feel unloved or die if left in a car by someone with too much else on their mind. Never go to someone in charge of children with no experience caring for children. If a particular parent takes a child to school every morning, do not change off, or they may forget their child is in a car seat in the back seat. A person who feels well cared for heals much quicker than one that is not. Everyone needs love, compassion, and empathy in their life.

I Will Do It Tomorrow

The procrastinator keeps putting things off for another day. If you keep doing that, nothing gets done, and a mountain of things needs to get done all at once. If your sink is dripping, call the plumber today and do not put it off, or you may have a flood of water running through your house if a pipe bursts. You cannot leave things unattended. Bills must get paid promptly, or collection agencies will be calling you demanding money, or they may put a lean on your home or garnish your wages. Things have to get done to live in this World to survive and flourish.

Your Soul

If you do not make time for God in your week, you will decline in your performance. Read a daily devotion and reflect on it as someone you know is going through it. Call people who live alone, older adults, and just let them know that you love them and genuinely care about what happens to them. The people that you have in your life can help your soul stay healthy. God enables you to keep a healthy soul by leading you on the path he wants you to go. Read the Bible and follow the Ten Commandments. Never leave your soul unattended, or the Devil will love to take over your soul. If you start to go down a dark winding road and you do not get off, ask God for help and forgiveness.

Cats Love Warm Places

Warm Areas Inside Of Your Home

I often find Cali sleeping in her bed next to the heat register after I am up and about in the morning. Garfunkel loves to take a cat nap on my lap, along with Conrad and Cali. Garfunkel sleeps in his cozy Pat Baw Bed, and Cali sleeps in hers also at night. Pat Baw Beds are pet beds that your cat will use forever. My cat’s next door have a heated house, heated cat beds, and boxes with towels. They are nice and cozy in whatever bed they choose to sleep in. I have one heated cat bed in my house that Conrad occasionally uses. My cats also like to sleep on high sleeves to get a bird’s eye view of everything happening. I have cat towers next to windows next door so my cats can watch any animals that might walk along and birds. My house cats like to nap next to the picture window to watch the birds eating out of the bird feeders.

Outdoor Cats

My outdoor cats used to sleep in our barn in the hay. They also had a big trunk with a hole in one end full of hay, and most would exit that trunk in the morning. I also had an old chicken nest stuffed with new straw. My cats had a cat building later that had an outdoor heated cat building and heated mats to sleep on, along with a heated water dish. I also had a heat lamp dangling from a string above the chicken nest filled with straw. I had one outdoor cat that slept with our dog at night along with her kittens. They would go on hunting adventures together, and they were the best of friends. Make sure your cat has a draft-free area to sleep in.

My Cats Next Door

I have a Mother and daughter that share a heated cat bed. I found Lizzie and Tammy sleeping in a heated cat bed side by side last night. Sherlock sleeps in a cat bed I have inside a kitchen cupboard next door. Faith loves her heated windowsill cat beds the best. I find my three cat brothers sharing a bed or curled up with their father, aunt, or mother. My 11 cats next door have sleeping arrangements down pat with no disagreements.

Cats In Your Bed

Cats will sleep under your covers at night if it is a bone-shilling night. After they are under your sheets for a while, their head will pop out, and they will sleep above your head to lie up tight against you. Cats love to share a bed with another warm mammal. On one frigid night, I had a three-cat night instead of a three-dog night. One cat was at my side, one above my head, and one at my feet. If your cat fidgets at night, you may not want to share your bed with your cat as you will be robbed of valuable sleep. Sharing your bed with your cat is not a good idea if you have allergies. I hope you and your cat our nice and cozy on frigid nights.

Security

Where Do You Feel The Most Secure

You feel the most secure with your parents when you are a child. As you start to build friendships, you feel confident with your friends. You feel safe with cousins, aunts, uncles, and extended family members. God is our security, for the Lord is my refuge and my fortress in whom I trust.

Security Blanket

Some children have a security blanket that makes them feel secure as very young children. As adults, we have safe places to put our valuables, such as lockboxes. We put our money in a bank as we feel it will be safe there. Some banks are called Security Bank & Trust, so we know their bank is secure. We all want to have a security blanket. We all want to feel confident as we grow older, so we buy rest home insurance, annuities, health insurance, and funeral home insurance and build a nest egg for emergencies.

Security System

Security systems are put in our homes and businesses to protect them while we are away. We have a defense department to help warn us of a possible nuclear attack. We put up smoke alarms and carbon monoxide detectors to warn us of a danger that could kill us. We lock up our homes, cars, and other valuables so they will not be stolen. We may have a standby generator or sump pump to be secure if a storm occurs. We have a tornado. Ambulances, police, and fire sirens warn us of upcoming dangers. We do everything humanly possible to help us feel more secure.

Checkups and Yearly Shots

We go to the Doctor to keep our bodies as secure as possible as we want to know of any upcoming illness that may harm or kill us if we do not treat it promptly. We have our teeth cleaned to prevent cavities down the road. We get our yearly flu shot, so we don’t get the flu and many other necessary pictures. We feel a little more secure when our Doctor gives us a clean bill of health.

God Is Our Best Security

God knows everything and has the power to do anything; he is perfect. God wants us to enjoy security as he has good plans for all of us that follow him. Money cannot make you feel more secure. God can make you think fast every day and into eternity.

Scriptures:

Psalms 20:1

The Lord hear thee in the day of trouble; the name of the God of Jacob defend thee.

Proverbs 3:26

For the Lord shall be thy confidence and keep my foot from being taken.

Spiritual Renewal

Renew Your Connection To God

After Easter gives you something to think about with your connection to God. Have you been lucky and do not think about what God has done for you in the past? It is easy to keep sliding along when things are going your way and not give enough thought to what God does for you every single day of your life. When young and healthy, we feel invincible and do not put much thought into spiritual renewing with God. When a significant health issue disrupts our life and daily routine, we pray to God to help heal us and strengthen us again. Sometimes it takes a considerable problem of some type to renew our spiritual connection to God and get us back on the right path in life.

A Near-Death Experience

A near-death experience will make you see life with a whole different outlook. The person used to be shy and reserved, and after a near-death experience, they were very talkative and could communicate easily with anyone. While this person was between life and death, they asked God if they could return and be a lay minister. They came back, and they did become a lay minister, and there is not one single day that goes by that they do not thank God for the gift of life. Life is to be lived and loved and to help spread God’s good works to everyone you meet. Hi -Ways.

If You Do Not Like How You Act Change How You Act

Are you quick to anger and burst into a rage over almost anything? If you are that person, people will try to avoid you with the negative energy you put out there for people to see. I you act like a turtle with your head stuck in a shell, people will wonder about you and likely avoid you. Do you have a crusty old shell like a beetle? If you shed that shell, treat people with kindness, respect, and compassion, and present yourself as God would want you to? A person that puts out positive vibes draws positive people their way, and a person who does not get rid of negativity draws negativity toward them.

Reevaluate Your Life

Easter is a time of renewal and a time to reevaluate your life. It is never too late to make yourself into a better person. If you think your soul is drifting away, do not let that happen, for the Devil is waiting for souls not connected to God. Do God’s will while on Earth and help as many people as possible with your time. Pray to God every night when things and hard for you, and God will answer you if you listen, for he is your Lord and Savior. Pray for forgiveness when you sin and truly repent of the sin. Carry on in a way that will help God and everyone. Keep your soul ready when our Lord and Savior return for judgment day.

Wild Animals That Have Attacked My Cats

No Comments on Wild Animals That Have Attacked My Cats

Bats

My cat Ginger, at age 16, managed to corner a bat that had gotten in my bedroom upstairs when we put a new roof on our house. The bat had landed on my head, and I was freaking out when Ginger came to the rescue. She got the bat on the floor, and she and the bat were exhausted. I caught the bat with tongs, and out he went. Poor Ginger lay at the foot of my bed panting until she was finely her old self again. God bless Ginger for saving me that day.

Rats

I had an older gray tabby female cat that had her face bitten by a rat. Her face looked very swollen. I put a salve on her face that I already had on hand. She had a piece of skin missing from her face, about one inch in diameter. She still had a good appetite. Her face was completely healed in about three months.

Skunks

I had a gray and white female cat that was quite the avid huntress. She would always come home with mice or moles that she had caught. One day our neighbor told my Father that he had seen our cat in a fight with a large skunk. She came home that evening with a bite on her face. I treated her face with wound powder that I always keep on hand. Luckily she had her rabies shot up to date. She healed up quite quickly from her fight with the skunk.

Cyst Full Of Hair

My tom cat Milford had a large swollen area on his face. The location on his face kept getting more significant. He was a very gentle cat. I took a surgical knife and cut the site open. The area on his face that I cut open had a lot of hair. I cleaned out the room with three percent hydrogen peroxide. He healed up very quickly. Do not try to use a surgical knife on any of your cats. You may be badly injured.

Raccoons

My Russian Blue cat Catrenia had her foot bitten by a raccoon. Her foot kept swelling. She was having trouble walking on her foot. I had put salve on her foot, but it did not help. I took her to my vet, who gave her an antibiotic shot. She made a full recovery.

Bats And Other Animals Carry Rabies

Remember always to have all of your cat’s shots up to date. A rabid animal could bite them at any time. You do not have to worry about them or you are getting rabies when all their shots are up to date.

Mean Tom cats

I have had mean Tom cats beat up my cats. They scared their face or bit them in the front. I once had three Toms related to each other, and stray Toms did not stand a chance against 3 Tom cats United.

I hope your cat never gets bitten by a wild animal. Make sure all of your cat’s shots are up to date.

Maintenance Of All Kinds

Maintaining Your Body

Our annual physical ensures our body is in peak operating order. Our Doctor may say we have to take blood pressure pills to maintain our blood pressure or that we should lose some weight to prevent people with diabetes down the road. We must exercise our body as a body at rest stays at rest and goes downhill quickly. We should be very social as it has been proven that people that socialize live much longer than those that do not. We should have our teeth cleaned twice a year to prevent tooth decay and having to wear dentures in our old age. We need our annual exams to prevent cancer or catch it early before it spreads and is not treatable. We should keep our minds as active as possible by reading, working on crossword puzzles, putting puzzles together, and having a hobby. I like to use a treadmill in the winter months with music playing in the background. In the warmer months, I weed whack, garden, mow my lawn, trim trees, and ride my e-bike. We maintain our pets’ bodies by feeding them top-quality food and annual Vet visits for their checkups and necessary shots.

Maintaining Your Soul

Maintaining your soul is very important. If you do not keep your soul, you do not maintain your body; without your soul, you have no body. God put breath in your body and gave you a mind to survive and function. If you lose your soul to the Devil, you have lost your connection to everlasting life. Have kind, caring, loving, joyful, peaceful, hopeful, and loyal thoughts. Do not go to bed angry at someone; be slow to anger. Put God above all others and strive to do God’s will on Earth. If you see your soul drifting in the wrong direction, ask God to help you get back on track again and stay on the right path, as that is the only path that leads to redemption and everlasting life. Glory be to God our heavenly Father.

Maintaining What You Own

If you do not maintain your home soon, you will not have one to live in. Maintaining a home takes a lot of time and energy. You may have to replace your windows, put on a new roof, install a new furnace put on new siding, have your home rewired, and much more. Maintaining a home is very expensive. Maintaining your vehicle involves oil changes, batteries, new tires, and sometimes something significant. Lawnmowers need oil changes, blades sharpened, and sometimes a complete overhaul. Outdoor buildings must be repainted, and rotten boards must be replaced. I stain my deck boards yearly with an oil stain since oil paints or stains last much longer. Water and other filters need to be replaced as they get dirty and cause damage to the device they are used on. Write a list of the top 10 things you want to fix at the beginning of the year and stick to the list so you do not have many repairs to complete all at once.
