Watchin' the Game Havin' a Bud

So this is an extremely random post.. I say that like my other posts aren't. Anyway, I took a picture of Lillian while she was yawning and it was seriously hilarious! There was a Budweiser commercial that erred in the mid- 2000's and it was the commercial when everybody would say "Wassup". Well the picture that I took of Lilly Belle looks like she is doing that commercial!

So this is the candid picture I snapped of Lillian. I seriously crack up every time I look at this picture though. Oh my gosh.. but like I said, totally random. Isn't it just like that commercial!?

Sweet Summertime

Lillian and I have some pretty fun plans for this summer. Even though I will be taking classes at Heartland and I will be working quite a bit... I am going to make sure that Lilly Belle has the best first summer ever!

One of my plans is to go on bike rides with her! My mom has this really cute bicycle that has a little basket on the front of it where Lillian would fit perfectly! I can just see us now, going on nice little bike rides around town.



This is the beaut of a bike I was talking about with the adorable little white basket in the front where Lillian can just hang out. How cool would it be to take a ride with my cat in this baby!? I think it would be sweet, and a great story to tell. Although, I am not too sure how Lilly Belle will feel about riding in it. Guess we will just have to find out.

Another plan I have in mind is to dress Lillian up in adorable summer outfits! I already bought a cute summer dress for her... I also may have made her try it on already. It is too cute. Who knows, maybe I will get her a swim suit too.

This is the super cute summer dress that I just could not wait to put on her! Is it not the cutest thing ever?! The thing is... it is actually a dog dress. As I have mentioned before, I get small size dog clothes for her. They are still adorable though. This is where I got the dress, right here.

Lilly Belle is probably not too excited about all the sweet summer plans I have. That's okay, I just hope she has fun. I know I cannot wait for summer to get here, and it is just around the corner. It will be the best summer ever!

Just a Few Ideas

So I have a few ideas in mind for an annotated bibliography. It would be so awesome if you guys could let me know if these are actually good ideas for the sources I will use.

For one of my sources I plan on using the Walmart website. I want to use this website and set up a direct link to where I got one of Lillian's outfits... which was really meant for a small dog. This is a credible website because it is exactly where I bought the outfit. I would be able to use this source by going back to one of my posts when I mentioned the shirt Lilly Belle was wearing. This is a source that I plan on using for my blog.
Walmart Pet Supplies. http://www.walmart.com, N.D. Web. 4 April 2013.

Another source I plan on using will be the Petco website. I will use this in order to talk about where I get Lillian's collars from as well as her toys. I feel this is a credible source because once again, it is exactly where I get these supplies from. A way I could use this source in my blog would be to go back and put it in the post about Meeting the Boyfriend. I would put it in that post because I talked about how my boyfriend gets Lillian toys and bought her a collar... those were all bought from Petco.
Petco Cat Supplies. http://www.petco.com/, N.D. Web. 3 April 2013. 

The last source I plan to use will be an informal interview with my vet about declawing. I feel this is a very credible source to use because this vet obviously knows what he is talking about and he went through many years of schooling to become a vet. I plan on using this source in a post I will be doing soon. I will talk about how declawing is very controversial and then I will talk about how the vet did say it will be okay. I will go into more detail about everything in the actual post.
Sean, Dr. Personal Interview. N.D. 

Well, those are the ideas I have. Please let me know what you all think! Thank You. :)

"Clunk Clunk Clunk"

One of Lillian's favorite toys is her wand. All it is, is a black plastic tube with pink and purple feathers along with tinsel on the end. This was one of Lilly Belle's first toys... it has been through a lot. I think it is almost time to get her a new wand.

But she seriously drags this thing around everywhere she can! Sometimes I will wake up in the middle of the night with a slight pain under my back, so I roll and feel.. sure enough it is Lillian's wand. She was playing with it and I ended up rolling over top of it!

These are snapshots of Lillian dragging her wand down the stairs so the family can play with her. Everybody knows when she is bringing it downstairs because all of a sudden you hear the "clunk clunk clunk" of the plastic hitting the wooden stairs. It is hilarious to watch this long wand getting drug by this tiny cat.

    

 

You can tell by Lillian's stance and just looking into her eyes that it is game on with the wand. As soon as somebody picks up the wand and waves it ever so slightly, she attacks it! When she attacks it, she sometimes even stands up all the way and paws at it. 

 

 

 

Ms. Lilly Belle is such a cold blooded huntress. At least I know I am protected by a little cat. She is my guard cat so you better watch out... she is obviously ferocious.

Vet Visit

When Lillian turned five months old I took her to get spayed. That was probably one of the hardest things I have had to do so far. Oh my gosh, when I dropped her off at the vet I felt so bad because I knew what was going to happen. Maybe it was harder on me then Lilly Belle. Anyway, she had to stay over night to make sure everything was okay. It was so weird not having her there with me that night.

I felt super bad for taking her to the vet and having her girl parts basically just ripped out of her, so I bought her two new toys to play with once she recovered. These are the two little toys I got, a cute mouse and butterfly.

 

This is a picture that I took as soon as I brought Lilly Belle back home. She ran right to her new toys and started playing with them. She was such a trooper! It was like she didn't even have surgery, I was so proud of her.

 

This was her little belly where the vet had to shave it in order to do the surgery. Thankfully it has grown back and it is almost to its original length. The two days after she had her surgery, she was running around like normal and playing with her toys. Which the vet said would probably happen. Then the third day... there was a crash.

Poor Lillian. This was obviously her crash. The vet said this would also be normal so I was not too worried. Although I did feel terribly bad for her. These pictures do make me giggle slightly just because her nose is mushed to the bed and she is all stretched out.

The good news is, it has been a little over a month since her surgery and she is all better! Her surgery incision is healed and she is not in any pain. Even better news, she still loves me even though I left her at the vet to get her lady parts removed. All is great with Lilly Belle!

Homework Helper

For some strange reason Lillian always likes to try and help me with homework. Well she thinks she is helping. Really she is not, she is only making it impossible to actually do my homework. Don't get me wrong, it is extremely cute but at the same time I can't work on assignments with her on top of them.

 

This picture was taken when I was trying to study for my Sociology test and Lilly Belle decided she would drop her toy mouse on my paper and sprawl out on my study guide... thanks Lillian. It did make me laugh to see how laid back she was and how she did not care at all that I was trying to read that paper and study.

 

 

If you cannot tell, Lillian is sitting on my laptop. This time I was trying to type my response paper for an English class. She just decided to jump up and make herself a little seat out of my computer. You also probably notice her cute little shirt. I am going to be honest with you right now, that is really an extra small dog shirt from Walmart! I could not pass it up.

Whatever I am working on, Lilly Belle finds a way to "help" me out with it. In fact as I was typing the beginning of this post, she tried to climb on the laptop again and her paw hit "33333333333333". Maybe she was trying to write a little piece herself? Who knows with her.

One Cool Cat

Lillian is not only a goofball, and a mama's girl, but she is also a pretty cool cat. She enjoys lounging around the house and dressing up in awesome clothes, handmade I might add! I think her fellow house mate, who is a pug named Booda, may even get a tad jealous of just how cool Lillian is.

 

I found Lilly Belle on top of the computer cabinet while my mom and I were cleaning and baking. This cabinet is pretty tall too, she had to jump from the top of the table to get up there. When I looked behind me this is obviously what I saw. She was just hanging out and enjoying the view.



I know I am biased, but she is so so so cute! This is a tutu that Lillian is modeling. I do not know many cats that will wear clothes and not care. Ms. Lilly Belle on the other hand is perfectly fine with strutting around in her beautiful tutu. I actually found how to make this tutu from a tutorial that was so super easy! If you would like to check it out, click on this.

This is her house mate, Booda. They get along.. to an extent. He does slightly get envious of how cool Lillian is though. I can totally understand why Booda tends to be a little jealous at times. Lillian is trying to show Booda the ins and outs of coolness nowadays.
