Wordless Wednesday
HEY YOU, GET OFF MY MAT
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.

Oh-oh! We suspect a tiff in the making. Did you gather an audience?? MOL!
Minko is always trying to usurp Pipo from any place he might be…and being a bully type he almost always wins without much hissing…
Pawsome mat! I can see why both of you want it. 🙂 My kitties would enjoy that too. Both of you are really cute! Maybe you could share?There is plenty of room and it would be cute to see you snuggle. 🙂
Now now, Mau. Giulietta was there first…
Bwa! haa!! Haaa!!! Yous guys makes mes laughs!!!
Many Kisses
Nellie
Uh oh! No snuggling going on there that’s for sure!
Uh oh!
Oooh, a showdown!
Ohhhh that is a standoff!
That mat is awesome…. and for sitting on too!
I LOVE your mat! XO
Amarula would never share her fav mat either!! Especially with boy cats!
Uh oh, stare down!
Yikes!
So what happened next? Did you share the it?
WE have seen that face before in our house!
Now now, let’s not fight. MOL Ya’ll look adorable. Big hugs
Luv ya’
Dezi and Raena
Giulietta, you are looking fierce! Mau better back off!!!
Sampy sends a zillion million kisses to Astrid, and we all send lots of love!
That looks like a great mat! We can see what you want to protect it!
Oops comes to mind!
It looks like Giulietta isn’t going without a fight.
Uhoh…….I see one of those “I DARE YA MAU!” looks in Giulietta’s eye! So how did this end?? AMICABLY or with a whap?
Hugs, Angel Sammy
rut roh!
What a purrfect shot you’ve captured here! Mau, I have to admit that Giulietta looks determined to stay right where she’s at. Even so, I can already tell what a handsome mat you’ve got there. I can’t wait to see the whole thing (if Giulietta allows it)!
Looks like trouble is brewing.
Mau…..a good Cat Scout know what battles he can’t win. Even when it’s with their sisfur. I’ve found patience works best. Good luck.
Purrs, hugs to all and loads of love and kisses to my lsweetheart Ms Lisbeth,
Charles
OOH! Did you get a new mat for Christmas? It’s very nice!! We have issues with the girls sharing here in our home too!
Happy New Year!
Mau, that mat looks big enough for both of you. What’s even better than having your face on a mat? Sharing that mat with a friend 🙂
I don’t think Giulietta intends to move anytime soon!
you don’t want to share?
I thought you were going to say “cloud”. *wink*
Cute capture! Hugs. Love you!
MOL, good luck wif dat!
