Beautiful voice!
Thanks for the link, Caren. It helps a lot : )
By the way, I give Eva normal biscuits but I usually break it into very tiny pieces as I've to watch her diet too.

Mariodacat said...

That was a great video. Just read where you will have 90! Wow, I thought it was going to be hot here with 82 and high humidity.

Gods Little People said...

We think we need a MUCH shorter national anthem!

Avalon Cat Cartoons said...

Hi Caren! As a cat expert, you might be able to help me... My little Avalon has been diagnosed with hyperthyroidism this weekend and I really can use all the advice I can get concerning alternative treatments, food to avoid etc.

Happy Memorial Day... And thank you for the funny video and upcoming advice...

Kitty kisses xxxxx

Cat Chat With Caren And Cody said...

@Priscilla THANK YOU! Also I am glad you liked the link :) I was thinking of you this morning. I was just making a broccoli salad to bring to a BBQ this afternoon and I was stirring dressing. Dakota doesn't like when I stir and he barks. I said "Nice boy!!" and he stopped (that is what I do at night before he gets a treat before bed, he barks if Cody gets a treat first so I say "Be a nice boy" and it works) lol. Thanks for the tip!

@Katnip awwwww I like it!!! :)

@Brian I loved it too! Glad you liked it!

@Gods Little People, for sure!!

@Mario yep 90. Trust me , I am NOT amused lol. I don't do well in this kind of heat due to my chronic kidney stones (medullary sponge kidneys)....we have to go to a BBQ. I told my husband we may only stay no more than an hour or hour and a half if the entire thing is outside. I will never make it in that kind of heat. I don't like summer anymore, (or I should say super hot temps), because of my kidneys. We will eat and run! MOL!!!

I will try and get to the blogs this evening (I am hoping that I can but I am not sure)...if not...I will be reading them tomorrow night! I haven't been deliberately not coming around!

Have a great day all!

Spitty-the-Kitty said...

Ha ha ha -- that kitty's Human has a good voice! You would NOT want to hear mine attempt to sing that (or anything else, MOL)

Thanks to all who serve our country, from this WWII vet's daughter.

Art and Sew Forth said...

That is PURRty amazing!! I wonder how long it took to train him??

Cat Chat With Caren And Cody said...

@Spitty same with me!! I can't sing worth a darn but I love to sing!

@Art and Sew Forth I don't know but he/she sure is good!

Cat Chat With Caren And Cody said...

@Vanessa & Avalon...whoa!! Noooo I'm not a "cat expert" I am a "cat lover" like YOU! I defer to the "experts" when I have them guest blog about various things. I am soooo sorry to hear about Avalon's diagnosis. What does the vet say? My advice is DO NOT GOOGLE IT. My vet advised that I NEVER Google medical conditions because they will scare the daylights out of you. I have some readers whose cats also have hyperthyroidism and they may have advice for you. Neither of my cats had it so I am not knowledgeable at all about it. There are a couple people you may want to contact on Facebook if you haven't already, Darlene Arden (who wrote "The Complete Cat's Meow" and Ingrid King who wrote "Buckley Story"...both of them are quite well-versed in various feline health issues. If you contact them, tell them I sent you. Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Tamago said...

Cat Chat With Caren And Cody said...

@Benny and Lily MOL!

The Island Cats said...

Happy Memorial Day!

Au and Target said...

Happy Memorial Day doesn't' sound right, nor does Sad Memorial Day. So we'll say have a nice day with the kitties.

Sharon Wagner said...

Love it!

Julia Williams said...

Oh my gosh, that is so cute and hilarious. I laughed every time the cat meowed. Not a bad way to start the day, on a Tuesday when you're all discombobulated and thinking it is Monday. MOL.

Amy and The House of Cats said...

Wow what a great video! We never sing along with our mom like that!

We hope you had a good Memorial Day!
