MEOW LIKE A PIRATE WITH FIONA AND LISBETH
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.

Now see here, Kitties: King Spitty has given out NO Viceroy Badges (well, except for the virtual icon available to ALL his Viceroys on Monday September 16). He refuses to he held responsible for squabbling girlcats who just want additional bling in their lives. Methinks Viceroy Savannah is out to start trouble and create jealousy amongst his other Viceroys who will feel, as you do, that they have somehow been wronged. Nothing could be further from the truth!
Frankly, King Spitty I is beginning to consider the suggestion that was made about His Royal Self collecting taxes from his Viceroys (who would of course be free to put the squeeze on their District Residents to raise the funds).
Now be good Viceroys and LadyCats and go catch some mice or something. You could wear their little heads as trophies if you wished.
