Wordless Wednesday with Blog Hog Mauricio
If you’d like to know what Mom is reading, join us Friday for a review and giveaway of a copy of The True Tails of Baker and Taylor, by Jan Louch with Lisa Rogak.
THE FURRY BOOKMARK
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.

The perfect bookmark! Adorable! 🙂
You’re the very best kind of bookmark! We loved that book 🙂
Good . read Quietly and tell the story. Nice Pictures. great work. Check Out My Online Store for Cat Lovers.
You sure are a handsome mancat, Mau.
Mauricio, you’re a handsome bookmark.
A book makes a great pillow sometimes, Mauricio! We look forward to hearing more about that book on Friday. Sampy sends Astrid a kiss for every book in the world, and we all send lots of love!
Best book mark ever 🙂
We love that shot of you!! And – hey – We’ll be reviewing the same book very soon. If you haven’t finished it yet – it’s really good!!!
You got it pal, reading is fundamental!
I wish I had a bookmark like that!
Mauricio makes the cutest bookmark! He is a lot cuter than the traditional bookmark. That is quite the yawn too! 🙂
MOL!!!! We laugh because we do the same and mama does not appreciate it sometimes.
Good job holding Mom’s place in that book, Mau. It must be tiring work, judging from your big yawn in that last picture. 🙂
Hugs to you all, dear pals!
Mauricio, looks like you are ready to use that book for a pillow for a nice nap. Hope the Mom is enjoying the book.
Mau, it looks as though all that reading plum tuckered you out! You’ll need a nice, long nap now:)
Sending your Mama lots of love!
the critters in the cottage xo
Oh you are so so so cute!!!!! SQUEE!!!
So cute! Books make us yawn too Mau!
The best kind!
What a cute bookmark ! Purrs
Hey, where do we get one of those bookmarks? Furry cute!
Where can I get a bookmark like that for myself? It’s just too cute!
Well, you must be one of the ones who reading puts to sleep…not that there’s anything wrong with that. *wink* I am sure if Mom is reading it, it is a good book! Cute series of photos. How did you do that, put them together like that?? This is the stuff I need to learn to do!
P.S. Chloe Jo is feeling a little better, but still very uncomfortable. George is trying to understand but wants her to play.
Is that book boring, Mau?
So cute.
Mau a book makes a nice pillow and a cat makes a nice bookmark…you’ve got both bases covered!
Hugs, Sammy
We hope you enjoyed reading your book Mauricio.
MOL! Trying to be the center of attention!!
A furry book mark, and that book is a good pillow, it seems….
You are not such a blog hog, Mauricio – I’ve been seeing lots of your family members lately!
Never was there a cuter bookmark!
