Hello, dear reader, if you have stopped by a few times over the last couple of weeks then you know that we've had a little excitement, of a medical nature, around here.
Daddy had a seizure, and I've been playing nurse as he's begun taking meds, and seeing doctors, and begun to take tests, in an effort to understand what happened, and what to do about it.
Lots of Kitties, and Humans, have sent purrs, and purrayers, encouragement, and support, since the beginning, as the comments show, and we are so very grateful.
One group of Kitties and their Human went beyond the call of duty, and did something that touched us very deeply, and has cheered us up immensely.
In addition to telling you about what they did, I want to show my appreciation to them as well.
If you have been around Cat Blogging long enough then you know KC, of The Cat Blogosphere Website, and her wonderful contributions, and hard work, that contribute towards making the place the successful, supportive of Cat Blogging, Community Resource that it is today.
But how many of you know of the Blog she shares with Missy Blue Eyes, and the other Sherwood Kitties?
Among the many things the CB Blog does is encourage purrs, and purrayers for all those in need, within the Community, and condolences for those who have travelled on to Rainbow Bridge.
A week after Daddy had his seizure KC, & Human Mom ML, advised me that they were going to send a "Care Package" with some things for me, and Daddy, as a way to lift our spirits.
I was touched by this (You don't mess with Texas, or, like the other card says, she might get crabby, hee, hee!), and promised to keep it a secret from Daddy for as long as I could. ;-D
I eventually had to tell him, though, since he picks up the mail. ;-D
What I want to do is share what happened next, in pictures, as mere words can't do it justice, and along the way share with you links to some of my favorite posts on the Missy Blue Eyes Blog, over the last 4 years, and encourage you to explore the place on your own. ;-D

This does not surprise me one litttle bit.
KC and the CB are the best!

KC (and her right Hand Mommy ML) truly are the very heart of the Cat Blogosphere.
This is a beautiful tribute to the Sherwood Bunch, and to ML who is a Saint, in Our Humble Royal Opinion!
Well done!
Your blog is a very comfortable place to visit - meaning, warm hearts reside here, also!

Oh, my goodness!
I didn't know that anything had happened until now.
Kiril, I hope you feel better soon, and that your recovery will be swift, and complete!
Please, Nikita, take good care of Kiril!
