Cats Are Predictably Unpredictable
None of the Kitties Blue came rushing forward when I asked who wanted to do the selfie this week. So I volunteered the first of the gang I came upon—Calista Jo. As you can see she was more interested in snoozing than smiling.
Though C.J. is showing no enthusiasm for today’s hop, I know all our friends are looking forward to seeing everyones’ selfies.
No hopping tips this week. We think you all know the drill. Simply link up below so we can admire you.

Next post: SPARK OF FRIENDSHIP
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.

It’s rather cloudy and gloomy here today compared to yesterday which was very bright and sunny, so the weather definitely makes me feel like snoozing a bit myself.
Very cute lazy Sunday photo 🙂

CJ you look very comfy sleeping there. Too bad someone had to point the flashy beast at you. We hope it didn’t disturb your nap for too long.
