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.

Where is the rest?
What? No spoon?
That must be some yummy stuff for you to reach that far for it! I hope you enjoyed it 🙂
Lily O!! Honestly, what is wrong with the servants at your place? You should NOT have to stretch and inconvenience yourself like this just to have your snack. Why, it’s an OUTRAGE, that’s what it is!
Lily Olivia is bellied up to the bar, I see. I like a window seat myself.
What a great stretch! Is that how you eat dinner every meal?
CUTEST EVER!! You even kept your elbows off of the table! xoxo
You are such a tiny and dainty little dove Lily Olivia. Why don’t you come over and I will cook something even tastier for you? I am told I am quite a good cook! You can tell me what your favourite dish is and I will whip it up , no problem!
kisses,
Leo

Nice to see you have a place at the table, Lily Olivia!

The REAL Maple Syrup Mob xxxxx
Lily Olivia, how nice that you have a place at the table! Maybe they can move that chair in for you just a tad. 🙂
Lily Olivia I see you also get to eat the dining room table. Mom figures no one else uses it in our house I might as well. ☺
well now that is the way to have dinner!
hellowww, I love your cat poem, purrrrr 🙂
Enjoy that yummy pretty girl!
You are eating at the table just like your mom and dad! Nice job, Lily Olivia!! Very cute.
Sampson sends kisses and snuggles to Astrid, and we all send our love.
You have the purrfect position to show your human how to do push-ups ! Purrs
You need a booster chair.
Getting in a little stretching while you eat? Multi-tasking?
Great pic! If our human parents eat at the table why can’t we?
Purrs xx

You darling! Look at you. You feel so good and so happy and so HUNGRY!
Whatever it WAS in that bowl, it was a big hit as it appears you licked that bowl nice and clean!!! Enjoy!!!
Hugs, Sammy
I agree with the Whisppy´s that it sure looks like you are doing bench push up´s while eating 🙂
