CONTINUING ADVENTURES OF ASTRID
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.

Omg!!! Where did the squirrel go?
Ya’ll better stay there on the lookout, cause squirrel dude may decide to return! What a great shot to get it in motion…and you didn’t see it?? OMC!!
MOL!
Whoa Astrid! You got photobombed by a squirrel.
It looks like you’re preparing to whap Lisbeth right off that cat tree! Sampy says to go for it!!! The squirrel too! MOL! He says he’s just kidding. He is really just a big lover boy and would never encourage fighting of any kind.
He sends you a kiss for every squirrel, beautiful Astrid. We all send lots of love!
Pretty pictures and cats.
You were photo bombed by a squirrel Astrid 🙂
Whoa!!!!

Looks exactly like what we’re looking for! 😀 How fun for everyone.
Looks like a great way to spend an afternoon.
Toby is sooooo jealous of your screened in porch!
OMC! Did you see that crazy squirrel? He was gonna jump on your head, Astrid!
OMC that squirrel!!!
MOL! Some squirrel was spying on you!
That’s quite the set up! Did someone say squirrel?! Love Dolly Pees: Mom says she has a pawsome selfie of Rhette for Sunday! Love Dolly
You should submit that to a photobomb contest! You’d totally win.
Jean from Welcome to the Menagerie
Pierre would have come through the screen to get that squirrel! BOL!
OMC! That squirrel was about to make Cat TV become 3D! I hope you got to see it before it got away.
