MISTY MAY & ANGEL MAU’S 16TH BIRTHDAY

Party Time

Please join us as we celebrate the two oldest members of the Kitties Blue family. Though Mau is no longer with us in the furs, we could never leave him out of our celebration. He was the heart of our home and will be in our hearts always.

For their card, we are sharing a photo of the tuxies as babies. Mau was lying on top of Mom and Misty May was atop him. As they grew older, they grew apart. Mau loved all the other Kitties Blue past and current more than he loved his sisfur. Typical siblings!

 

Thankfully Mau grew into those gigantic “bat” ears!

 

It wouldn’t be a birthday without a party.

For the first time Cooper Murphy is baking for Mau (and Misty May), and he made them a special cake.

 

 

Of course, we have lots of noms, champagne and nip. Help yourselves and stay as long as you like. Due to rain, the catio is closed for the day, but we have beds and cat trees spread throughout the house and oodles of toys to entertain you.

 

Thankful Thursday

In addition to celebrating Misty May and Angel Mau’s birthday, we are joining the Thankful Thursday blog hop at Brian’s Home. We are thankful for having Mau with us for almost 16 years and having so many wonderful memories of him. We are thankful for all of you who loved him as well. And we are thankful that you have joined us today to celebrate Misty May and Mau.

To join the blog hop, post on your blog for what you are thankful and then click on Brian’s badge to go to his site and enter the link to your post.

Thoroughly Poetic Thursday

We apologize for not participating in Thoroughly Poetic Thursday today with Two Spoiled Cats. Mom has promised to post her poem tomorrow along with Friendly Fill-Ins.

Thanks for joining us today.

Purrs and paw-pats, Kitties Blue

    We’re pretty sure we heard Angel Allie squee over that photo of baby Mau and Misty May. We heard there’s a huge party at the Bridge for him. Your party is pawsome here too. Happy Birthday Misty May and Angel Mau.

    Happy Birthday Angel Mau and Misty May…….I love the cake Cooper made for them and wow what great noms – you all know how to party at the KB Crew HQ !! We all miss Mau so very much and while Misty May and Mau weren’t exactly CLOSE, I’m sure she and all the other kitties miss him. He was one special guy.

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.
