FOUR ON THE FLOOR
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.

That’s such a fun picture!
That is a great picture but I find myself distracted by the kibble bowl. Is that sitting in a bowl of water?
Wow, a picture with 4 cats! Our Mom is already proud when she gets the two of us on one photo!
Looks like feeding time around here too 🙂
Let me guess, there’s kibble in the bowl no one wants and the cats are eating canned food? Love Dolly
That must be some good noms.
Looks like something tasty on the menu.
Aaaaaaw How cute.
Luv ya’
Dezi and Lexi
that is too cute!
It looks like you have room for one more — is that bowl to the left for one of us? 🙂
Hugs to you all, dear pals. Happy Wednesday!
I am MOMs to the Girl Cat Scouts Aspen, Mango, Tigger and Willow who run HKL Lovers and the Elf Haus.
I am very curious…which Cat with his Head in the Bowl is Mauricio the Baker?
I see there’s a bowl for me!
Today’s menu looks yummy!
MOL! When we saw “Four on the Floor” in your title we thought your post was going to be CH related! The “Four on the Floor Rule” is what CH kitty parents use when picking up and putting back down CH kitties – all four feet must be on the floor before you let go. Otherwise they may fall over. This picture is very cute — love them all eating together. That could never happen in our house — everyone has to eat in a separate room or they will steal each other’s food. Sampson is one of the worst! MOL! Anyway, Sampy sends a kiss and head butt to Astrid for every eating kitting in the world. We all send lots of love!
Some of you guys eating out tonight? Mol
It seems like rush hour at the kitty kitchen 🙂
Looks like you are getting jummy food 🙂
XOXO
Whatever was on the cafeteria line was obviously a big HIT! YUM!
Hugs, Sammy
I didn’t realize how many of you were black and white kitties before! Probably because I think more in personality traits than fur color.
Where’s everybody else?
