FELIZ CINCO DE MEOW

Mix up those meowgaritas, nipjitos and some guacamole. It’s time to celebrate Cinco De Meow.

Astrid and Mauricio will be your hosts for Kitties Blue Cinco De Meow party. They are hosting as they have gotten dressed up for a party at Cat Scouts. Astrid’s Cat Scout boyfriend Sampy‘s Patrol, Powerful Paws, is hosting the party so he’s asked her to attend as his date. Mau NEVER misses a Cat Scout activity. (If you are not a member, he suggests you check out the Cat Scout site here.)

A sombrero decorating contest will be one of the activities, and we are giving you a sneak peek at Astrid and Mau’s entries. Astrid chose a flora and fauna theme for her sombrero, which includes a miniature Sampy. Mau’s theme is evident.

 

MEOWMEOW

 

Help yourself to some drinks and noms.

This is our Cinco De Meow graphic from last year. We like it so much, we want to share it again.

Enjoy the noms and libations and have a meowvolous day.

Purrs and paw-pats, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo

    We are MOLing at Mau’s sombrero. It suits him! Sampy can’t wait to escort Astrid to the party tonight. It’s going to be so much fun! Until then, we are all going to grab a little snack and drink at your party!
    By the way, when Mom was searching the internet for photos for the Cinco de Mayo part at Scouts, your Cinco de Mayo group photo came up in the searches!
    See you all later tonight!
    Sampy sends Astrid as many kisses as there are tacos in the world, and we all send lots of love!!

YOU
For Fiona

It seems like only yesterday…
You were just a kitten.
When I saw your pleading look,
I was completely smitten.

Now at only six years old,
You are getting ready to leave,
Soon you will have your wings.
I’ve already started to grieve.

You’ve fought hard for the past year,
And I’m not ready to say good-bye.
I can’t imagine you not in my life
I am so sad…today I had to cry.

I am grateful and blessed
For my six years with you.
You’ll live in my heart forever.
You’re one of the best ever Kitties Blue.

YESTERDAY

Many yesterdays have passed since
You gained your angel wings. Today
Is six months since you left us behind
To remember and mourn. Our hearts
Continue to hurt, and we miss
You as much as the day you left.
Giulietta whined from the catio
Yesterday as I worked in the yard.
I know you put her up to it. That
Was your way of getting me to,
Allow you to join me as I
Gardened. You were there with me
In spirit. With every meow
I thought of you and how much I miss
Your sweet face and disposition.
In these past few months, many friends
Have traveled your same path in your
paw-steps. I am certain you were
Waiting to greet them with purrs and hugs.
I pray you and your friends are laughing,
Frolicking and having fun together.
Picturing that makes me smile, but
Does not lessen my sadness at your
No longer being here to snuggle
And receive our love, care and kisses.
Fiona, please do not ever forget
You are still and always will be loved.

ONE YEAR MISSING YOU

One year has passed since you flew away,
And I still think of you everyday.
I see your sweet face in my mind’s eye
And wish we’d never had to say good-bye.
It’s nice you’ve sent us kitties needing a family,
But my dearest love, we are now at capacity.
You thought it would take more than one cat
To take your place in our habitat.
We love Cooper Murphy and baby Sawyer dearly
But thinking either could replace you makes me teary.
You were one-of-a-kind and will stay in my heart
Until the day I join you and we’re no longer apart.
When once again I can hold you in my arms
And revel in all your love and feline charms.
Together with you and all who have passed.
I will spend eternity contemplating how blessed
I was to share my life with my furry children,
Each and every one of you one-in-a billion.

UNTIL

I miss you each day.
Until we meet in heaven,
The pain will remain.

© Giulietta Blue 11/01/17

ONE OF A KIND

I don’t know how to say good-bye.
I thought you were invincible; though,
You used up many of your nine lives.
You ruled us all with an iron paw;
Never took “no” for an answer
And always got your way.
If not, you’d bark to signal your
Displeasure and sometimes raise a paw.
I always joked that you were bi-polar.
When I told people you were a calico
They immediately understood what I meant.
Today was unnaturally quiet in the house.
Can a home seem empty with eight cats?
I will miss waking up at night to find you
Sitting next to me and staring at me.
I will miss you yelling at us as you did
When you wanted breakfast and dinner.
I will miss watching you lounging and snoozing
On the porch settee on a warm afternoon.
But most of all I will miss your kisses!
When kitten Sawyer befriended you,
We suspect you were imparting your
Wisdom and secrets for controlling us.
Time will tell if he was a good listener.
But whatever he may have learned,
Neither Sawyer nor any other cat
Can or will replace you in our hearts.
Lily Olivia, you were one-of-a-kind.
