Fur kids in wheelchairs 2009/03/01

I told you about my friend, Mister and that he’s paralyzed? Yeah, so, I want you to know, if your furkid has to have a wheelchair or cart, don’t be sad. Mister isn’t sad or anything! He loves playing with the rest of us kids who aren’t paralyzed. He doesn’t even have to have his cart to get around. He hops all over the place. …and he’s fast, too! He uses his cart when he’s going to go outside and play and stuff.

This is him when we’re getting ready to go out when we were in Maine. He got a new t-shirt when we were in Bar Harbor, ME. I think he wanted to show it off.

Yeah, so, we went to the Orono Farmers’ Market. He got to get out of the car and tool around. I had to stay in the car. Not fair. But he had fun! He was quite popular.

So, Mister wants you to know it’ll be ok if your furkid needs wheels. He said he’s just as happy as before and you can still play with other kids and go places and stuff. …even without a cart. He says you can learn to hop really, really fast. Just in case you wanted to know, Mister got his cart from Eddie’s Wheels.

 

Mister goes to the Cape. 2009/02/28

Mister went with us on vacation to Cape Cod, last fall. We have a special booster seat and Puppia harness for him, so he can ride in our car. Anyway, what I wanted to tell you was, he was always sleepin’. He loved basking in the sun, then he would get all squinty and blinky-eyed and *POOF*. asleeeeeeeeep. SHEESH. I think he slept away half the vacation. But, he said he had fun and I love to play with him, so I’m glad his Momma let him come with.

Lipsmacking good. 2009/02/22

Mister came to visit. Mister is my paralyzed Maltipoo friend. He often comes to stay with us on weekends. I love him. I love my Sam’s Yams. I don’t love him enough to share my Sam’s Yam.

This is my Mister.
