Wordless Wednesday

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.

You are very thoughtful to offer your help, Cooper Murphy.
We would gladly help too ! Purrs
Oh, WOW!! Treat heaven in plain sight!!
Yes, that is very KIND of you Sawyer! I try and offer my assistance to Ma when the treaties come into the house, butts she always says no. Let me know if you have better luck….
Kisses,
Ruby ♥
Sawyer, are you claiming those all for yourself???
Party at The Kitties Blue’s house!! 🙂 XO
You are very smart to volunteer for that task!
Are you trying to hold down those treats or are you begging mom for some of those treats. I think you are begging.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a purrfect Wordless Wednesday. My best to your peeps. ♥
Umm, the treats go in the other end…just sayin’!
Do you need us to teleport over to help you open them?

Are you going to divvy them up fairly, Sawyer, or are you guarding them? 😉
Sawyer, of COURSE Mommy wants you to help. There is no doubt that your expertise is always needed to assist with these things. And who can resist your kind offer?
Sawyer are you being HELPFUL or are you giving THE BIG HINT?
Hugs, Teddy
What a bounty!
“Help” – we all know what that means 😉
