MEME TIME & FRIDAY HOPS

Feline/Friendship Friday

 

MEME TIME

 

Astrid hovers above Sawyer as he eats his breakfast. The quality of the photo isn’t great, but it made for a somewhat amusing meme. Sawyer and Astrid will be hopping by Comedy Plus for Feline Friday and Create With Joy for Friendship Friday. If you’d like to join them, click on the appropriate badge.

Friendly Fill-Ins: Week #245

Time for those fill-ins hosted each week by Ellen (15 And Meowing) and Lorianne (Four-Legged Furballs). I used teal italics for my fill-ins. Explanatory info is in parentheses.

Friendly Fill-Ins is a blog hop. You can find the sentences to be filled in on both blogs on Thursdays. And you can join the hop by clicking on the badge at left.

1. February is the perfect month to curl up with a cat or two or more and a good book.

2. I have a subscription to Consumer Reports On Health newsletter.

3. Anything that makes me laugh is my kind of humor.

4. I shouldn’t eat dairy products, but I do anyway. (I am lactose intolerant but love cheese and ice cream.)

We’ll be back tomorrow for Caturday Art. Hope to see you then.

    We really like that Meme and photo. Some of the best are a bit out of focus or leave a part out MOL
    Great fill ins Dad is a bit with the lactose too so has cut out dairy in his coffee but does still eat his favorite American Cheese by the slice.
    Keep Warm and Safe

    You two sure are cute! Those were good answers. Our Dad doesn’t do good with lactose either.

    Leaving food will be an invitation to Astrid to jump into it……well, it would be to me!! I love food. Feels so good in my tummy. You know these two are well behaved kitties. When the food runs out in my bowl I knock it all over the kitchen. Sawyer’s bowl would be in several pieces.

    Whisker smooches to Snap!

    What a great shot of your babies and I’m guessing Sawyer shared that tail with Astrid. He’s that kind of kitty.

    Love your fill-ins and I had to chuckle. We always want what we’re not supposed to eat.

    Thank you for joining the Feline Friday Blog Hop.

    Have a purrfect Feline Friday and weekend. Scritches to all the kitties and a hug to mom. ♥

    Astrid has the best seat in the house to see if Sawyer just might leave a few tidbits behind from his breakfast – then she can just hop down and make sure his plate is CLEAN! Great MEME and fill-ins.

    Hugs, Teddy

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.

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.
