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.

Holy floofiness! I can’t tell whether the robin is just really cold or really … err … robust. What a show of gorgeous color!

I like The Swiss Cats answer 🙂
Absolutely not ! They rather make you look tasty ! Purrs
I saw a robin in my yard nomming raccoon kibble. I tapped on the window to tell him the bird feeder was in the front yard, but he flew again. The End.

Hmm… I would never turn away a plumb birdie or two. Why don’t you fly on over and land on my paw and I will smooth over your insecurities. Tee hee hee.
So cute! Great pictures 🙂

One of my favorite birds! I just love the simple beauty of robins. So do the kitties. Those robins sure do make for fun Bird TV!
Those are the roundest robins we’ve ever seen!

Birds have the original “puffy coats”!
I think the robins are as confused about this weather as the rest of us are! Puffing up might give them some insulation from the COLD – purrrrhaps I’ll try that…..although I’d be afraid I’d float away like a big ginger balloon!!!!
Hugs, Teddy
