Wordless Wednesday
ATTACK OF ASTRID THE ANNIHILATOR
Social Media
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.

Now that’s Tortitude!
OOH! Looking fierce (and beautiful), Astrid! 🙂
You get it, Astrid!
We don’t think there’s a toy around who could outplay you, Astrid!
Looks like you’re getting all of your feet into that action! Good for you. Sometimes, you have to work extra hard to really kill those toys. At least, that’s what Fergus thinks.
Jean from Welcome to the Menagerie
Amarula would use Astrid in her army of world domination anytime!
She is so fierce! And such a cutie.
You are in my thoughts and on my heart. I am here for you. Know that. Hugs.
UhOh You’re lookin’ mighty feisty. Have fun. Big hugs.
Luv ya’
Dezi and Raena
I hope you deadded it Astrid!
What a cutie pie.
Great catch ! You look so fierce ! Purrs
Great catch, Astrid! You really showed that toy who is boss. In true kitty fashion, you did it all while looking super cute. 🙂
Tortilicious!
Sending purrs for Fiona’s check up.
That toy doesn’t stand a chance.
You make one fine Ninja Kitty, Astrid! 😀
I thought you had a white belly until I realized it was a toy 🙂
Is that a patch of fluffy white we see on your belly, Astrid? We never knew!
Now there’s a purrfect and fierce action shot if I’ve ever seen one! Go, Astrid, go!
WOW – talk about fierce!
Love, Sammy
Get it Astrid!
So I guess that toy bit the big one, right? 😉
