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.

Looks like someone needs to plant some more marmot food!
Jean from Welcome to the Menagerie
You have definitely had some visitors! Those must have been some yummy vines. 🙂 I’m not sure we have marmots here. Those must be fun for the kitties to watch.
Looks like somebody had a little nibble.
Have a wonderful Wednesday…
Noodle and crew
We have rabbits that destroyed some of my wife’s new plants.
OH NOES!!!!
Looks like they enjoyed it!
It looks like our plants when the vishus deer come to visit.
That plant looks, well… a little bit naked ! Purrs
Dang, it wasn’t me!
That plant still looks better than it would if it were in my yard!
MeOW Now dat’s a lime colored plant fur sure. But it’s very purretty. Hope ya’ll have a great day.
Luv ya’

Whoa!!!! They can wreck havoc in the garden, who knew?
Wow, they really went to town on that poor plant. 🙁
How kind of you to set up a buffet for them…
I guess they were tasty.
UHOH……..the critters for some reason don’t eat our sweet potato vines…..we see the little guys up on our deck all the time where the potted plants are but they haven’t had a nibble of those vines (yet). Guess we’re lucky???????????
Hugs, Sammy
Is there anything left of the plant?
That sweet potato plant really took a beating…well, we mean a chewing. Sheesh:(
Wow, they really did a number on that poor plant, didn’t they?
Uh oh. They ARE cute though!
