Our dad has not enjoyed being sick with Mono for the last six weeks, but we haven’t minded having him spend lots of time in the prone position. He makes a great cat bed.
Wherever you plan to spend your Easy today, we hope you are as comfy as we are.
Purrs and paw-pats, Misty May and Mauricio
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.

I am really sorry dad has Mono. Not nice! We call it something else here, but the Staff had it when she was a teenager and knocked her back for a good long while! Sending purrs for him xox
We’re sorry your dad is sick but we’re glad he has such good nurses making sure he stays put until he’s well! We’re sending him get well purrs!
We are sorry to hear that your dad is sick. We will send lots of get well purrs to him. Misty May and Mauricio look like they are taking very good care of him Cat snuggles are really good get well medicine. Love, Cali, Andy, Tater and Shelly (C.A.T.S)
ohhhh noooooooo…. that was the most miserable time, Mommy recalls. She had to go to Hawaii (wheee!) for work (eww!) and found she had mono 3 days before (whaa-a-a-at?).
She was doing a LOT of holding up walls and stuff while she was over there. Here she was stuck in paradise, and sick as a dog with THE WORST sore throat in the History of Mankind! (but we digress.)
How is your dad feeling? How is HIS throat?? Be kind to him cuz that is MISERABLY AWFUL VERY BAD NO GOOD SCHTUFF! Word.
They certainly look cosy 🙂
Great photo’s!!
Purrs to your Dad, and get well soon wishes from all of us!!
XOX Basil & the KC XOX
What a fun cuddle pile! Hope your dad is feeling better soon.
Oh man, mono is the pits. Your poor Dad! We hope he gets better soon, and we bet all your awesome snuggles will help. 🙂
Who’s your Dad been kissing? MOL! I’m sending healing purrz his way.
Hope your dad appreciated all the kitty loves he got yesterday. That much love is hopefully making him feel better.
We pin the Dad down as often as we can. Purrs that your Dad is better soon
MOL we loved that last photo!!!

ps – Allie sends smoochies
We feel sorry for your dad, but we kind of wish our humans would stay home with us!
Poor Dad. He does look like he makes an excellent beddie, though perhaps that weight on his chest might be the eensiest bit…..oppressive? Ah well, no–nothing the Humans like better than some kitty heating pads, right? Hope he is feeling better soon!
aiiee! so so sorry to hear that Dad has the sickies…bummer for sure…but with all of you to help keep him comfy…bet he is up and about in no time; paw pats, Savannah
Your poor Daddy! Thank Cod he has such good Feline Nursies. Mommy had mono (eons ago) and she well remembers being just SO worn out. Purrs!
We know mono isn’t fun but we are jealous we don’t get to spend 6 weeks with kitties. We’re sure he would rather be up and about, so we are hoping he will get better soon, and purring kitties are the best medicine, so he is good paws. We’re purring for him too.
Oh your poor Dad! Hoping he feels better soon! Hmmm…Mono is the “kissing” disease, did he kiss your Mom too much? Love, Cody
I hope your dad soon feels better but it looks like you are taking good care of him.
Such sweet pictures of you two…big purrs to your Dad.
You two are taking great care of your dad. Make sure he doesn’t get up. 🙂
Aw, your poor dad! We hope he gets better soon! But that’s great news for you! You get to have him with you all the time now!
I hope your male human has not tried kissing you kitties – that is how it can spread! Seriously, I hope he is better soon.
OMC, I’m sure glad you are taking such good care of your Dad. That’s not a fun disease…
I do hope that your dad feels much better, very soon but… I can also see how you’re gonna miss all that excellent snuggle time when he’s up and at ’em.
Purrs,
Nissy
Oh, we hope your dad feels better! The humans, they get cranky when they’re sick for that long. At least that’s how Gloman is. But on the flip side, it makes for lots of extra lap time!
Happy Sunday, friends!!!
Thanks so much for visiting today.
xo,
Glogirly, Katie & Waffles
We aren’t sure what a mono is but we’re purring your Dad feels better soon. Meanwhile, enjoy your warm, cuddle water bottle!
We sure hope your Dad feels better but boy you sure do look comfy!!!!
xoxxo
Hope the Dad-person feels better soon. We know from personal experience it is no fun!
PURRS! Spell correct, I HATE you.
My human brother had that last year and it lasts WEEKS with a fever and all. He was so weak he could hardly move some of the time. Puss and best hopes to your dad. xoxox
Purrs to your Dad from all of us. We hope your Easy is a fun as it looks.
That mono stuff is not fun – our typist had that one time. Yuck!
