Whoa Nelly!

 Kitties!! Mom has been busier than hen's teeth!  She finished shutting down our main bank accounts as she has changed banks now. A mom has to change auto debits, wait for incoming  checks to clear, stop this and stop that---wait several months watching carefully.  Finally finished, so she took a cashier's check to the new bank...we're off and running!  I don't understand this stuff but she said the interest rate was head and shoulders over the one she has been using for a long time.  She and I go look at the accounts on the phone sometimes while we're sitting in my chair and she's scratching my chin, back, head, beans...and just smile all over seeing the gain from interest.  

Mom posted to her own bloggie a few hours ago about me and bed time along withValentine's Day.  You wouldn't believe the insult I got regarding myself!!!  Something about an ancient old Latin musician!  How dare she! You should have seen what she wore for our Valentine's date!  I was  pristine, elegant, the picture of purrfection and grace! Her!?  HA! She wore blue and white flannel!  I even buffed my pink and black beans with my tongue.  SHE had bare ghastly pale beans!  Frankly I was embarrassed but, I love her so we got through it.  She was dressed for the night alright.  Read my beautiful charcoal lips.  She was in her nighty! 

Kitties!  I just started some beef pate.  I wasn't doing well with my Fancy Feast Medley Tuna with a savory broth.  LOVED it a few days ago.  Turned my nose up today.

Mom said she is finished helping so I will hit the sack over there in my biggest beddy. 

In Loving Memory of my best furriend Dai$y.

Me polished up for Mom's and my date.

These are exquisite, Mom said.

You are pristine! (High yield savings accounts are the best!)

Katie, of COURSE you were pristine for you and Mom's date.

Yay for Mom switching banks for that higher savings rate!

Leah said...

Katie, your pawsies are most elegant! Good for your Mom, getting everything done! We are meowing here for you to dig in and chow down on some tasty food!

Banking, like everything else, is much more complicated than it used to be, which is strange, because most people don't have much money... Your feets look a little pink in the last picture, Katie; very cute.

Oh noes, Katie...The Hubby is talking about changing banks, but you know who is gonna have to do the legwork, and it's not The Hubby.
*sigh*

It was a chore and now it is done and I hope all is well.

Hey, better interest rates ROCK! So glad you found a better bank, and those paws are exquisite!

Your mom has been very busy Katie. I have also been thinking about changing bank accounts but haven't got the patience right now.
You always look beautiful, Katie.

Katie it's a good thing mom has you to help her decide what bank to choose. The more interest she makes the more cat food she can buy. Then that can be more flavors that you taste and throw away, m o l.

Katie Isabella said...

Rightaroonie, Precious! Hey, wanna come over and have some tasty pate?

Pradeep Nair said...

Sounds like a busy time. Getting stuff done in banks can be quite a tedious affair sometimes.

I can't imagine changing my bank which isn't a bank but a building society I have banked with the same company since I was 14

Mom's phone is an Android (Galaxy S23 Ultra). She thinks it's Mr. Google doing the artwork

Ms. ~K said...

Oh Sweetheart, I want to lick 👅 & nibble your lovely paws! ❤️ Kat Your Lover Boy

Kitties Blue said...

Katie, it is not what was worn or who was polished up and who wasn't for Valentine's Day. The important fact is that you were together. We remember Dai$y well and loved her blog. That bag is a pretty remembrance. XOCK, angels Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid & Sawyer, Lisbeth, Calista Jo, Cooper Murphy, Kizmet, Audrey, Raleigh, Gibbs & Tali

Big beds, little beds, we like them all! Medleys sometimes we like, other times not so much.
