LISBETH’S NEAR PURRFECT SELFIE

Sunday Selfies: Week #322

 

purrfect

 

What do you think? Am I getting a bit better at this selfie thing? It did take me three tries, but I think this is near purrfect. I didn’t even turn my face away.

I am unusually “nekkid” in my photo, as I have taken my collar off. Mom continues to ask me where I have hidden it, but I’m not talking. Sometimes a girl just wants to feel free and comfy!

So, now that I have shown you mine, it’s time for you to share your selfie with all your friends and admirers. And we are huge admirers of each of you who join us on our hop. In case you are new here, we welcome you and hope you will join us often.

Purrs and paw-pats, Lisbeth (with kisses for my sweet mancat, Charles)

    Adorable! My childhood cat Patch used to always take his flea collars off down in the basement. I have a feeling there are still some down there!

    Lisbeth you look beautiful and seductive in a shy way. I like being free and nekked too but mom says I must wear a collar or I can’t go to the Lane. She’s so picky sometimes!! I have hid my collar many times and gee I can’t remember where. mol My new collar I’ve worn for 2 days in the Lane so mom is hoping there are many more days left in its future.

    Don’t tell them where you hid the collar – they might try to put it right back on you! I’m a big fan of the sport, COLLAR-HIDING. It takes my human MONTHS to find things I have hidden! Hah! — Paprika the cat

    It’s a beautiful selfie, Lizbeth. And maybe just a tiny bit x-rated since you’re nekkid without your collar. 😉

    It’s a very pretty selfie Lisbeth ! Rosie doesn’t wear her collar either because she said that now that she is an inside cat she doesn’t need it anymore. In fact she is right.

    Lisbeth that is a picture perfect selfie if ever there was one. I bet it feels nice not to have that collar on too – nekkid is NATURAL…..tee hee………..I actually posted a selfie of Angel Sammy’s pet frog today for our selfie. Old Freddy was a good friend and we thought it would be fun to show him off!

    Hugs, Teddy

    You look lovely but I WISH you had your collar on. Toulouse s SO good at losing his right now so we dare not let him in the garden.

    Love to your Mum and Dad.

    Lisbeth I remember when I hid my collar for the third time and Dad said “OK no more collar.” You’re getting there. You really did do a fine Selfie. Excellent in fact

YOU
For Fiona

It seems like only yesterday…
You were just a kitten.
When I saw your pleading look,
I was completely smitten.

Now at only six years old,
You are getting ready to leave,
Soon you will have your wings.
I’ve already started to grieve.

You’ve fought hard for the past year,
And I’m not ready to say good-bye.
I can’t imagine you not in my life
I am so sad…today I had to cry.

I am grateful and blessed
For my six years with you.
You’ll live in my heart forever.
You’re one of the best ever Kitties Blue.

YESTERDAY

Many yesterdays have passed since
You gained your angel wings. Today
Is six months since you left us behind
To remember and mourn. Our hearts
Continue to hurt, and we miss
You as much as the day you left.
Giulietta whined from the catio
Yesterday as I worked in the yard.
I know you put her up to it. That
Was your way of getting me to,
Allow you to join me as I
Gardened. You were there with me
In spirit. With every meow
I thought of you and how much I miss
Your sweet face and disposition.
In these past few months, many friends
Have traveled your same path in your
paw-steps. I am certain you were
Waiting to greet them with purrs and hugs.
I pray you and your friends are laughing,
Frolicking and having fun together.
Picturing that makes me smile, but
Does not lessen my sadness at your
No longer being here to snuggle
And receive our love, care and kisses.
Fiona, please do not ever forget
You are still and always will be loved.

ONE YEAR MISSING YOU

One year has passed since you flew away,
And I still think of you everyday.
I see your sweet face in my mind’s eye
And wish we’d never had to say good-bye.
It’s nice you’ve sent us kitties needing a family,
But my dearest love, we are now at capacity.
You thought it would take more than one cat
To take your place in our habitat.
We love Cooper Murphy and baby Sawyer dearly
But thinking either could replace you makes me teary.
You were one-of-a-kind and will stay in my heart
Until the day I join you and we’re no longer apart.
When once again I can hold you in my arms
And revel in all your love and feline charms.
Together with you and all who have passed.
I will spend eternity contemplating how blessed
I was to share my life with my furry children,
Each and every one of you one-in-a billion.

UNTIL

I miss you each day.
Until we meet in heaven,
The pain will remain.

© Giulietta Blue 11/01/17

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.
