Dona Nobis Pacem: Blog For Peace

Hey y'all. Furst I've got a quick health update - some more test results came in. Da bacteria I had are gone (GOOD!), but da vet suspects IBD and hepatitis (not good). I'm now off the prednisolone, and still eating good with no nasty symptoms (GOOD!) So, we're just taking a wait and see approach for now, since if I have IBD, it's chronic and not curable - there's no need to rush me to a vet if I'm doing ok at home since it's stressful for me. We'll keep ya updated on my health. And fanks so much for caring - this lil buff tabby boy are so happy he are loved.

Ok, for da main point of today's post. We's joining annual blog blast for peace. A piece of what ya ask? Well, a piece of our minds on dis year's theme, which are "change your climate." It could mean a lotta things, your purrsonal climate, the environment, the air conditioner (just kidding on that one). We's choosing to talk about the climate. Ok, ya now us kitties like it hot (there's nuffin like a sunpuddle), but climate change are not a good thing (even if momma would LUV endless summer). I mean, what if the ocean's flooded the nip-growing farms?? What if it led to bacon shortages?? Y'all may have seen the fires in southern California this month - well, 2 of those fires happened VERY close to where momma used to live (she went to UCLA which had to cancel classes becuz of the Getty Fire and she lived right next to a mandatory evacuation zone for the Easy Fire in Simi Valley when she wuz 10). And we've all seen the news about the massive flooding hurricanes have caused - so much of this seems to be getting worse.

So what can we do? Well, we're cats. We aren't the problem. People are the problem. So make your humans recycle - I always make momma rinse out the Fancy Feast cans and recycle them. Tell them to watch their fossil fuel consumption - hey momma, that means LESS driving me back and forth to da vet. And most importantly, they can change their climate by VOTING. In the US, there's gonna be a big eleckshun in almost one year exactly. So make shure your humans know the positions the candidates have on environmental issues and VOTE accordingly. Your nip and bacon supply might depend on it.

Ok, we's not ALL serious here. Since it are also Mewsic Monday, we's sharing some peace-related/anti-war tunes for ya. Kinley Westie will have some more.
