Wordless Wednesday

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.

Whose a clever boy?? Why Sawyer of course!
Love Sherri-Ellen
You know what they say about curiosity and cats, right?
We have 3 nosy kitties, and the photo of our newest addition can be found at this week’s post. I hope you’ll come and share with us at the weekly wordless Wednesday photo party:

Must be something yummy in that cabinet!
Did you find the treats? 🙂
You found the mother lode!

You might think those treats are safe but I’m not so sure! 😹😻
If our cabinets were glass, Lexy would never leave the counter! MOL
What a wonderpurr idea! Have clear window cupboards so the tweats are easily spied. Love this! Dori
I wonder what he’s detected in that cupboard. I think he’s going to sit there until the door is opened!
On the counter, sniffing for treats, AND caught on camera!
Someone’s sneaky cat skills are rusty….
Is that where your Mom keeps the treats?
The Florida Furkids with bazillion smoochies and tons of love to Mau from Allie
Kitties have great noses and they always know where the treats are.
Have a purrfect Wordless Wednesday filled with treats. My best to your peeps. ♥
You found the treat cupboard, Sawyer!
Sawyer you know where the GOOD STUFF is in those cabinets don’t you! I bet you can figure out how to open them if you try hard enough!
Hugs, Teddy
What are you doing there, Sawyer?
Anything good up there?
I have one of those too … only he favors the pantry to nose around!
