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.

Oh, LOOK AT THAT HUG! Purrs….
Oh what a beautiful hug x
That is just so very nice.
Astrid sure does love her Dad
What a nice photo session with Astrid all snugly on her daddy’s chest! I remember how our kitty loved sleeping on my shoulders while watching TV. Sadly, my allergies got the better of me and we no longer have a kitty. That’s been almost 26 years now. Maybe one day I can get some outdoor kitties to love. They don’t seem to bother me so much. Thanks for visiting!
Awwww… you’re melting our hearts!!!

Ah, what a sweet hug – makes your day better I bet.
Wow.. she is so cute, i want to hug her :*

OMC! That is soooo cute. I guess somebody loves their daddy 🙂
We knew right off it was Sister Astrid!! She is such a darling.
Sending prayers & love for you to feel better soon!
