Wordless Wednesday
NO KISSING ALLOWED
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.

But…but…well petcretary just has to at least give a snuggle…then she can sneak in a wee kiss??!
Where are my comments…this is the most times I have had to try and get them to post…sigh…
Sorry for that rant…it just was not coming up…but now its there, hooray!
But you look oh so very kissable!
Pretty hard to resist!
The Florida Furkids with tons of love and smoochies to Mau from Allie
Those are some adorable jelly beans! It takes a lot of self-control not to kiss them. You drive a hard bargain, Lily Olivia. 🙂
Lily Olivia, you are a beauty. XO
Lily Olivia! You look like you are dreaming about me!
Look at that smile!

Our mom would totally ignore that rule!!
Really ? Those are such cute paw pads ! Purrs
A special cat nap calls for plenty of paw kisses! 😀
I’ll just sneak up real quiet like…you won’t even know I’m here, smooching your toesies!
That post not only want to kiss it but hug too. Those paw pads are inviting me. What a cute post.
Very cute photo. I’m having a hard time resisting tickling the photo toes.

You’re gonna get kissed anyway, Lily Olivia. *smooch*
That is a very cute photo.
PAWPADS are a come hither that my mom finds it hard to resist. She’s just havta!
That’s kind of a lot to ask – you look pretty kissable.
Awwww…no kissing? That’s a toughie…..Lily Olivia looks absolutely COMFY TO THE MAX in that photo. Actually I suppose kissing would just disturb her so I think no kissing allowed is probably best.
Hugs, Teddy
What a sweet photo, Lily Olivia!
That’s not fair. What about hugs? Love you guys. ❤
I have a lot of weaknesses when it comes to felines … but I simply can’t resist multi-colored paw pads!
