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.

Chris is mostly in control around here but everyday is a power struggle.
Do you have any tips on getting the remote from Dad? That guy has a firm grip and I dont have claws. Great job. Cats need control and you have it
Timmy and Family
MOL! Yeah, that’s YOUR remote, for sure!
That’s how you do it.
You are too funny. XO
I am totally in control at my house. To the smallest detail.
We’ve discussed this question, and sadly have come to the conclusion that Rabbit is in control at our house. Mom says control is overrated and Dad never really had control. We like to just lie around and have our hoomons wait on us, so we never wanted control. I guess we just didn’t think this through since now… Now. AssRabbit is in control.
The cats own EVERYTHING, I just pay the bills – MOL!
The cats determine when we get up, they determine how we decorate the house, and even my employment ’cause I’ve got to have enough $$ to feed ourselves AND them! LOL!
We all know that the kitties are always in control. We allow it too. That’s because you are all so precious.
Thank you for joining the Wordless Wednesday Blog Hop.
Have a fabulous Wordless Wednesday, my friend. Scritches to all the kitties. ♥
OMC thank COD I was in Mom’s lap when I saw this. Please thank Mom Janet for the warning. My hubby is sooooooo handsome!!!
Love and Smoochies,
Allie
ps – Noelle sends paw pats to Sawyer
I think all pet owners know the answer to that one! LOL! Why, it was three years before we took a vacation because we didn’t have a pet sitter! 😉
That looks remotely familiar!
Mau I am SURE you cats are in control there – after all, there are a LOT MORE OF YOU ALL than humans!
Hugs, Teddy
Animal Planet should be the ONLY channel!
Oh Mau! We are so out of TV Control at our house! Mom routinely turns the Remote Control TV turn On Device, Upside Down. Then its not so easily found!
At least you can find the Remote Controller for TV at your House! Mom cannot find ours its been missing all day!! Mom is looking still and its almost Midnight now! No TV all day Tuesday! Mom is abouts to get up and turn it on by hand!! Our House is Out Of Control!!
