I AM BACK HOME (ALMOST)

Whew -- am I glad to be back with mum. Marley asked me to say goodbye from him, and mum says good riddance -- bol. She got tired of cleaning up after him (and her aide, Cathy) quit working for her because of Marley!!!!! Mum also got tired of him grabbing all her shoes, etc. Mum came and picked me up on Friday, and as soon as I walked in, I reclaimed my "territory". Mum was not very happy about it, but understood.

Right now mum, myself and my kitty sistahs are staying in a motel!!!!! We are in the process of moving to our new apt and an infestation of bedbugs showed up!!!! Mum has lived there for NINE years and this is the first time this has EVER happened. She now has to throw out her mattress and probably has to throw out her couch, too!!! The bed is a hospital bed that she got from Walgreens, but Walgreens no longer handles them so there is ANOTHER hassle. She rented a minivan which is really nice!!!! She has left me and the kitties here when she has gone out!!!!! She has to go over to the new apt when the movers go there!!! Things have been kinda crazy but we wanted to let you know we were all well!!

Will write more soon.

I HAD A RUMBLY IN MY TUMBLY TODAY

Marley here: (actually foster mum is writing this as I a still too young to use the puter -- bol) Anyway, I had a bit of a rumbly in my tumbly-- I threw up during the night then again early this morning, and did not feel like eating or doing anything. My mum and foster mum discussed it. Foster mum (or fm) (Mum here: Blogger just ate almost a whole paragraph and I don't know how to retrieve it -- grrrrrrrrrrrrrrr) Back to Marley: Long story short (cos FM doesn't want to retype it all) Anyway, it was decided to wait on me to see how I did. FM was unable to take me to an emergency vet -- Plus it is waaaaay to expensive. Anyway, she found some chicken in the freezer and nuked it. A friend was supposed to bring over some white rice -- but we are still waiting 6 hours later. About an hour ago -- after sleeping all day, I decided to eat some of the kibble in my bowl. FM cut up a small amount of chicken and added it. It was DELISH. I wolfed it down. FM said that so long as I don't throw up again, she will not have to take me to the dogtor!! Otherwise things here have been pretty good. The kitties are starting to be a bit friendly and do not hide from me all the time. A friend loaned FM a carry case for me and so on Wednesday FM packed me up in it and we went to her "new" apartment complex. Everything was fine going there, and we went to Walmart afterwards. I fell asleep while we were in Walmart and FM bought me a new collar -- it is really cute and is blue so it looks really great on me. FM said that people kept coming over saying how cute I was and could they pet me!!!! The only problem was that by the time we left to go home, it was REALLY HOT. I was uncomfortable in the carrier and kept trying to get out so FM had to zip it up completely. We finally got home and FM was suffering from the heat, too!!!! She says that he heat never used to bother her as much as this year, but says that she prefer the dry heat here than the humidity up north!!!! We have pretty much stayed in since then because it is waaaay to hot. She filed the lease application for the new apt on line, and everything seems to be ok with it. Now she just has to figure out how to pay for the move. Her friends Dave and Terry have offered to pack/move/unpack for her, but they want a bit more than she get in cash. If she uses a moving company she can put it on plastic. She is also trying to get a loan!!! If she gets the loan, she will use them otherwise she will have to use a moving company.

FM says that with everything that is going on, she is REALLY stressed out. She just got more stuff from the lawyer for the wheelchair manufacturer and she has the pre-trial hearing about Cookie on the 23rd!!!! I am now going to hand this over to Cookie.

Hi: Cookie here by way of telephone conversations with mum and Joy. I am really enjoying my "vacay" here. I am getting along really well with Joy's two dogs and even get along with all the cats.

Joy figured out a way to give me my pills in pill pockets and so I have been having my meds on a regular basis. On of Joy's dogs (Rain) is also a service dog so we have been swapping stories.

I have also been following the Blogville Pawlympics (much more interesting that the peeps Olympics). I would like to go to the wrap up party, but mum has been too busy with Marley and moving stuff to really try to get me a date. If anyone would like to be my date, just let me know before the dead lion if possible.

Well, I need to go back to my playmates here, and mum says that Marley is getting back to being a brat. Mum was upset that Marley was not feeling well, but enjoyed that he was not getting into so much mischief!!!!! She says that when she took him with her to get the mail today, he would not walk on the leash, so he carried him most of the time on her lap!!!! Apparently he is peeing and pooping on the pee pads more often -- but still pees on her bed!!!

Oh well, if any of you are still reading -- we really appreciate all the donations to our GoFundMe campaign. Every little bit helps.

Will chat with you again soon.

HI MY NAME IS MARLEY

Cookie's mum here:

Cookie went to her temporary "home" this morning. When we were there talking to the temp "mom" she peed several times!!! Anyway, she seemed to be ok. Joy told me to take Marley until Cookie could come back to me. I tried to download a photo of Marley, but it would not download, so I guess it's back to Best Buy to see why not.

Anyway, Marley is only a few months old; she is a yellow lab and really cute. He will be posting here in Cookie's place for the next couple of months. When I figure out how to get the photos on here we will post more.

WISH ME LUCK

Mum put a request for a temporary home for me on CraigsList and a very nice sounding lady offered to take me. She has 2 full grown dogs and 2 puppies plus several cats. Mum has a ride for us over there tomorrow. I just hope everything goes well. I will have to be there till some time in September because mum will not have the paperwok in place till then. Mum says that she will probably be going to an apartment in the comples where Uncle Vic used to live. We are not speaking to him right now because he was mean and refused to let me stay with him!!!!!!! Anyway, wish me luck there -- dont know how I will get along with the other puppers!!!!

Incidentally, people here are saying that I have "attacked" their dogs when all that happened was we barked at each other!!!! WTF

Anyway, I will try to have mum keep up with my bloggie and please please please continue to contribute to my GoFundMe account -- it REALLY does help.

MORE HELP NEEDED --- BOL

Cookie's mum here:

Once again I am coming to the citizens of Blogville for more help!!! My friend Vic who was supposed to take care of Cookie from this Friday until the end of the month has bailed out. Is there anyone in the Tucson area -- or beyond because if necessary I will rent a car to drive her wherever necessary -- where she can stay for that time. The reason for the temporary "vacay" for Cookie is that (as I mentioned the other day) I was served with a 10 day notice last Wednesday and Cookie has to be out of the apartment by the end of this week!!! I cannot afford to board her, and I have put a notice on Craigslist and am waiting for a response.

Please e-mail me at jskhackney23@hotmail.com if you can help or know anyone who could possibly help me!!!
