Siamese Cat Day with Queen Nellie Bellie!


Another name for Siamese cats is Mezzers. 
The term is often used by Siamese cat enthusiasts and is derived from the breed’s distinctively vocal nature, which includes a range of meows or “mees” that can be quite expressive. These cats are known to have a very distinctive vocalization, which can be both endearing and, at times, demanding.
Our Peep was once owned by a small meezer (who had the biggest purrsonality) named Queen Nellie! We asked our Peep if she could tell us WHY Mezzers are the way they are and she said there are 6 things Peeps MUST know when they are owned by a Mezzer! She asked Queen Nellie of she would help tell yous all and Nellie Bellie said YES!
 
1. Your Mezzer has more toys than you did as a child

 
You ALWAYS celebrate their Birthday!


3. You LIKE spending more time with your Mezzer than people.

 4. Your Mezzer MUST give you their "permission" before you pet them.
 
5. You stop whatever you are doing to pet your Mezzer.

5. Everything belongs to the Mezzer! They insist on being pampered!


6. Mezzers always make sure they are there to help you!

I, Marvelous am so THANKFUL that Queen Nellie came to help Mom and Me with this Mezzers Post! AND
We are so glad that YOU came too!

Welcome to APRIL!

Wow! A Whole NEW month! It's April and its going to be FUN!! As always, April's badges are available at a smaller size (300x300)

First up is the April Calendar

There are LOADS of things happening:

APRIL IS CANINE FITNESS MONTH

April is Canine Fitness Month and it is to remind us how prevalent obesity is and for us to keep our dog active and fit. Nutmeg is young (she is now 14 months old) and furry energetic. When our human bro is working out of town, Mom has trouble getting her exercised as much as she would like. She LOVES to chase Alex on his one wheel, she loves to go to work with Alex at the mill and play chase with Ruger. 
 
Ruger sure looks like Cinnamon, doesn't he? He is Cinnamon's Brother's Grandson. 
 
 
APRIL IS PET FIRST AID AWARENESS MONTH
 
During this season, many families and pet parents are able to enjoy the outdoors with their pets with activities, such as hiking, camping, and outdoor picnics! National Pet First Aid Awareness Month highlights the importance of first aid. With all the physical activity and outdoor adventure packed in the season of spring, there will always be the risk of accidents and unwanted injuries—so it’s always good to be prepared.
So now that you know about National Pet First Aid Awareness Month, Do You have a First Aid Kit?
Some tools to keep in your pet first aid kit include:
  • Absorbent gauze pads and rolls
  • Adhesive tapes
  • Cotton balls
  • First aid scissors (with blunt end)
  • Tweezers
  • Disposable gloves
  • Antiseptic solution or wipes
  • OTC antibiotic ointment
  • Alcohol
  • Syringe or eye dropper
  • Digital thermometer
  • Emergency contact information
 
This site https://pangovet.com/pet-lifestyle/general/national-pet-first-aid-awareness-month/ is one that has some comprehensive information.
 
 
APRIL IS PREVENTION OF CRUELTY TO ANIMALS MONTH
 
Even though ASPCA works to prevent cruelty to animals all year long, April is special at the ASPCA because it is officially Prevention of Cruelty to Animals Month!

Mom is super busy this month, so for your entertainment, we are showing you a video of Nutcase er Nutmeg getting some swimming in to celebrate Canine Fitness! (Purrsonally, I, Marvelous think anyone who goes swimming in March is crazy!).
 
 
Happy April Fools Day!
