Wordless Wednesday
COLD DAY ON THE CATIO
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.

Burr..rr! I hope that rug is keeping the breezes off your furrs! Maybe when you are ready to go inside you can curl up in a nice warm lap. Hugs!
You look so comfy and cozy!
Have a wonderful Thanksgiving…
Noodle and crew
Don’t get stepped on cutie.
That’s a great hiding spot, Cooper Murphy! I hope you got to see some pawsome Cat Tv even though it was cold outside. It has been cold here too (in the 30’s). You are such a cutie pie!
Looks like you found a good way to stay warm, Cooper Murphy.
Stay warm, Cooper!
Memories of Eric and Flynn.
It is very cold here in my part of Massachusetts. I’m happy and sad for Turkey day . As my daughter and family went to her husbands relatives for the week. So tommorrow it’s just my son and I and 2 friends. But I miss my grandchildren the most. And my 2 kitties who cheer me up when I am sad. So Happy Thanksgiving to everyone! And hug your kitties!
It is just 22 degrees F this morning. A bit on the chilly side. It’s all good. WARM HUGS!
Cozy and warm always is a great thing!

OH sweetheart, Admiral loved that too.
You look awfully cute and cozy there, Cooper! 😀
Peek-a-boo, Cooper Murphy! Did you make a nice, warm fort on your catio? What a smart boy you are!
Hi Cooper! You’re smart to hide in a bit of a “rug-tent” to keep from getting too frosty out on your catio….that way you get that fresh air BUT can keep the wind from blowing your furs off! Enjoy!
Hugs, Teddy
That looks like a cozy spot, Cooper Murphy!
I see ya Cooper!
Cooper Murphy, you and Ellie would have so much fun … and probably tucker each other out – which your siblings would probably appreciate 🙂
