Hey, I’m getting pretty good at this…don’t you think? I guess all the practicing is starting to show. Now, I know this is not the clearest selfie, but I definitely posed quite nicely.
I’ve shown you mine. Now it is your turn to show me as well as all your friends and admirers your selfie. I know pretty much all of you can do a better job than I did. So just link up below.
Purrs and paw-pats, Calista Jo
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.

You made a wonderful selfie, CJ!
This selfie is what we call purrfection, Calista Jo!
Hi and bye, Kitties Blue! I am headed home with my mama tomorrow, and since she works full time and also goes to school, I dunno if I will be able to persuade her to write a blog for me! Still, the Hostess might come through for me once in awhile 🙂 It’s been really fun participating in the Sunday Selfies, and I am sure the Hostess will be carrying on with posting very soon 😉 Calista Jo, that’s a great selfie! And Sawyer (who dares call you Stinky?!?!?) I hope you are feeling loads better now. XOXOXO to all

Such a pretty selfie, Calista Jo!
You have definitely nailed this selfie business, CJ.
Well done Calista Jo! Let’s just say I was a lot more uncooperative than you were for your selfie…..I was too busy asking to go outside to turn around and let Mom take a photo of my FACE instead of my BUTT. Oh well….mission accomplished – I got to go outside! Happy Sunday.
Hugs, Teddy
