We are having a rainy weekend, but that doesn’t matter to Mauricio as his favorite daytime snoozing spot is on the double rocker on the front porch.
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.

We kitties are snoozing now the house trashing is over! Thanks for all the help, we won’t let your mom know why you are so tired. Let her think it is just a Sunday Easy.

You sure were comfy! We hope your Monday was as easy too!
Great snoozing photo! We’re having all rainy days after today so we’ll be joining you soon! Purrs…
It looks like you had a pawsome Sunday!
Thank you so much for your kind words about Auntie El’s passing. We’re sorry it’s taken so long to reply but Mom is having a hard time. It’s comforting to have the support of the Cat Blogosphere at this sad time.

So adorable!
Mauricio, Your picture should be in the dictionary next to the word “easy,” Buddy, cause nobody does it better.
I bet that rain just lulled you to sleep, Mauricio!
WOW!! You’re elebenty-seven stripes long!
That sure looks comfy!
Mum says ‘That looks just like YOU Dash!!” MOL!! Nothing like a good nap mate!
We kitties are nappin’ too…after a very busy and fun 4 days at BlogPaws!
That looks like a good spot to relax when the weather is not so good.
I like it
That looks so comfortable! Love the way you are all stretched out.
Enjoy the nap!
any weather is napping weather
What a nice photo. I always look forward to your posts.
Aww…looks comfy…I love rainy days!
Rainy? Us too! We hope mom lands okay with all the thunder *sigh*
But until then, we’ll be doing the same – power napping!
He has a very good spot chosen, doesn’t he?
And very relaxed and comfy he looks too! 🙂 xx
That looks very comfy.
Purrs
That’s right Mauricio – rain or shine – makes no difference when you’re napping! ENJOY!
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
If each of the wide strips in the fabric of your rocker, you are one long kitty cat, Mauricio! Have a wonderful day.
Looks like a primo nappin spot! Enjoy your snooze. Happy Sunday!
