Thoroughly Poetic Thursday
It’s Thursday again, and time to write some poetry. I have another silly cat-centric poem!
Capricious Cat Capers
This is fun. We can scamper from boat to boat,
Just as long as the owner doesn’t decide to float
Down the canal and away from shore,
As the prospect of falling in the water we abhor.
And if we stray too far from our abode,
We will miss our litter box commode,
As well as regular meals and chin scritches
And the fresh fishes Mom puts in our dishes.
So, if we hear a boat motor begin to roar,
We know that it is time for us to scurry ashore.

As evidenced from our poem, a few of the Kitties Blue can be found in the photo. I challenge those of you who visit today to let us know how many of the Kitties Blue gang are included and which ones.

Thankful Thursday
As you know, we like to share our thankfuls on Thursdays as well.
I got lucky this week and earned three badges on the Two Spoiled Cats’ Tuesday Teaser. What makes that even cooler than usual is that I earned two last week for providing the Teaser photo and stumping all the Teaser guessers. This week I was one of three First Commenters as well as the first Right Guesser. Wow…I’m sure on a roll. Here are my cool badges. I think they are totally adorable.
I am thankful that I have finally completed the marker for Giulietta’s burial site. It just needs to have the bottle, that I use to put it on the stake, added to the back. Once it is in place, I will share a photo.
A few days ago I noticed Sawyer was having some symptoms that are precursors to a seizure. I was able to wrap him up in a towel and keep him as calm as possible, preventing a full-blown seizure. Sawyer is delighted with eating kitten food, so continues to get his meds more regularly.
Those are this week’s thankfuls. Kitties Blue and I hope you had a week filled with things for which you are grateful.

Thanks for visiting us today.
Hey there! I could have sworn I’ve been to this website before but after reading through some of the post I realized it’s new to me. Anyhow, I’m definitely delighted I found it and I’ll be bookmarking and checking back frequently!
Sweet blog! I found it while surfing around on Yahoo News. Do you have any suggestions on how to get listed in Yahoo News? I’ve been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Appreciate it
I too am glad you were able to make a bad moment for Sawyer go better. Clever idea!
I counted 5 kitties…i think!
I loved your poem! Very original!!
Love that poem and the kitties on the boats, my eyes aren’t that good anymore to figure out who is there. Those were really good thankfuls too. Thanks for joining our Thankful Thursday Blog Hop!
That was a fun poem. Congrats on all the badges. XO

I spy with my little eye 5 kitties on the boats!
Great work averting the seizure! Fun poetry and additions to the picture too! All the cats I’ve known would totally check out those boats if they were anywhere within paw-reach.
YAY for keeping Sawyer from having a big seizure….and also YAY for him eating kitten food with meds in it…..this is fabulous. Your poem today is really AMAZING and putting so many of the Blues Cats on those canal boats was super duper clever. Can’t QUITE make out enough details to identify them but I bet they like being on the water and looking for any available fish swimming by!!!
Hugs, Pam and Teddy
Oh, any news of Sawyer havig a good moment is good news for us. How smart to wrap him up and prevent the seizure. So wise. What a good mama you are.
