HOW TO MAKE FRIENDS WITH CATS
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.

I do believe that works quite well! MOL! She stole your hearts and pws to the nip and treats:)

Works for us!

Treats work every time.

Nip & treats?! Nom nom! It is a pawrty! Cue the music, balloons & the wind up mousies! Purrs!
Nip time ! Purrs
Whoa, par-tay!
cute!!
This probably wouldn’t work if I tried to befriend some cats. Actually…my urge to chase them would be stronger so I think this would greatly backfire! BOL!
Is this the Kitties’ Blue friend Chris? She sure is a cat whisperer!
We are delighted to see you all just sniffing about!
You have awesome parties!!! It’s fun for us to see all of you together. You are all looking great……and a little spaced out on nip! MOL!!!

Dad’s had cat friends all his life, he says. He’s even been told more than once that cats he’s visited and patted who don’t ordinarily let people pat them seem to know a cat lover when they encounter one.
Well that looks like one FUN place! Piles of nip – toys – do we have to register to belong to the Kitties Blue Klub?????
Hugs, Teddy
I’m scared of cats. I do not know how to become their friend. really did not dare to come near it.
A nip party! Are your blogging pals invited?
