BIRD WHISPERER
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.

What a brave little finch!
No way! Now THAT’s cool! Tell us more!!
Sampy sends Astrid a kiss for every bird in the world and we all send love!
HA! He must have sent out a tweet!
Oh wow! That’s impressive! The mom has tried to get the chickadees to eat out of her hand. But no luck yet. She has a friend who feeds the chickadees from her hand.
Great capture!
Wow! Can we borrow him?
What a super sweet photo!
Impressive
Sarah and Shadow
Wow! How’d your dad DO that?!
Awww!
Whaaaat? How’d he do that?
We don’t know what to think about it… We suppose that “sweet” is more accurate than “tasty”, right ? Purrs
This is a great capture! Hugs!
Wow, how sweet!
That’s so cool! Didn’t your cats try to catch the bird?
Awww….that is sweet.
Wow! How cool is that! What a special treat! 😀
Awww…can I have it… 😀 Double Pawkiss for the bird…whisperer 🙂 <3
Did the bird land there on his own? Or has Mr. turned into a really great bird catcher??
Nice picture of the bird on the shoulder – our Mum would have run a mile as she hates to pick up birds as she hates the feel of feathers.
Brilliant – what a picture!!
Whoa! Did he try to bite it? That’s what I would have done!
How sweet!!!
Well, now I’m curious what the cats think of this 🙂
