Wordless Wednesday
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.

Smoochies and love, Allie
ps – Noelle sends paw pats and headbonks to Sawyer. She hopes Stinky had a good time at Mardi Gras yesterday.
You are super cute, Mau.
Mau, I love how you look!
Love your fun blog and also the tribute to your kitties past. I had a Devon Rex (Noelle) who lived to almost 19 years. It was so very hard to give her up. She had been there for me me through good times and bad times…always ready to snuggle and make my heart smile 🥰
Mau you truly look like you are enjoying every minute of Cat Dad’s lap! It’s heavenly when you’re feeling secure and loved isn’t it?!
Hugs, Teddy
Mau, you look like one satisfied kitty!
You are looking rather smug, Mau!
Oh, but just check out the bliss he is in!
