More on Cinnamon

The human companion of Chet’s Friend of the Month is always invited to tell us a little more about that friend. Here’s Marjie P (thanks, Marjie!) on Cinnamon:

“I’m always happy to talk about my boy. We adopted him and his sister, Whispurr, when they were kittens from a small rescue group here in West Virginia. His sister was a tuxedo, with a black “mustache and beard”, so for the first couple days we thought she was the boy and Cimmie had to be the girl because of his beautiful blue eyes and his squeak instead of a real meow (and the fact that he was such a wimpy, scaredy cat he pooped all over my daughter in the car on the way home).

14 years later he got really sick and the vet told us he had lymphoma and wouldn’t make it longer than a month because his intestines weren’t able to absorb nutrients. The vet researched possible cures, and found a new protocol we could try that involved a small surgery, a chemo pill every 2 weeks, and prednisone twice a day, as well as a special diet that involves Cimmie and me sautéing and grinding up real chicken. Yes, he helps. Not only is he still alive, but he’s thriving. His 16th birthday is April 15th.

I’m sure, by now you’re sorry you asked me to tell you about him! I’m thrilled to see his picture on your FB feed, though! As a retired 2nd grade teacher, I truly appreciate having the time, to not only take of Cimmie, and brag about him, but also to read, a lot! Thank you so much for continuing the Chet and Bernie stories. I’ve loved them from the start! And, I’m looking forward to meeting Queenie and Arthur in a couple of weeks, as well!”

Meet Cinnamon!

The random number generator speaks: Cinnamon! That makes Cinnamon Chet’s April friend of the month, quite possibly our first cat – appropriate since this month’s prize is RUFF VS. FLUFF, first in the Queenie and Arthur middle-grade series (Queenie being a cat). Check out the FB page!

Friend of the Month Reminder

Last day of the month already! But there’s still time to post a pic for April’s Friend of the Month. This month the winner’s human  companion gets a signed copy of RUFF VS. FLUFF, the brand new mystery for the youngish and youngish at heart. Check out the FB page for details.

More On Toby

Toby is Chet’s March Friend of the Month. Elaine, his human companion, kindly tells us a little about him:

“Toby is a rescue dog. He is almost 10 years old. He loves to be up high like a cat. He hangs out on top of our radiator looking out the window. Loves people, tolerates our other rescue Bailey. He is not a fan of other dogs and a fierce protector of his home.”
