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.

The squirrel is so close to the door – it seems like he wanted to enter the house! We don’t have squirrels where I live, so I don’t know how my cat would react if he ever saw one
Brazen squirrel! LOL! 😀
Those squirrels are so quick!
Purrs xx

Oh My Catness!

Squirrels are entertaining…then they are food!

I guess squirrels are the same everywhere…cats are, too. ❤
That squirrel may regret tempting you so much.
Those are some silly squirrels.
Those squirrels sure do like to tease the kitties! I don’t know if they realize how close to danger they are. I see a fierce hunter sitting at that door!

Giulietta — that is some seriously glorious floof you are showing off today. AND we think you need to show that squirrel who’s boss!

I think that squirrel is TEASING you!!!!! HAHAHAHA
Hugs, Sammy
Intense fascination! Get that squirrel!
OMC, that squirrel was RIGHT THERE on the other side of the glass. Newton would have banged his head on the glass trying to get to it.
Exciting times. 🙂

The upside down squirrel looks so funny.
Luv Hannah and Lucy xx xx
That squirrel is really teasing you, Giulietta!
