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.

That’s one royal looking beast.
That’s a mighty yawn, indeed, Fiona! We hope you had a nice nap afterwards. 🙂
That’s some yawn, Fiona!
You got shar fangs and I hope you’re not afraid to use them. I bet you’re signing a great song.
Aw! Hi Fiona. What’s so funny?
Oh what business-like fangs. Care for a match up one day? Friendly match up?
My, such a sharp fang you have there!
I bet you and your kitty siblings would have fun watching & chasing all the bugs and critters in my yard!

That is a great looking fang. Love the picture. HOpe all of you have a super day.
Looks relaxing!
Fiona you look like you are enjoying a good laugh!
Thanks for visiting us! I too am a crazy cat lady and love your posts.
was it something I said? 🙂
Looks darn sharp to me!
*sighs* For want of a fang…. *sighs again*
I simply adore cats. Your poem is wonderful. I love your page. 🙂
What a fangtastic picture
One fang is better than no fang, we say!
“Fangs for the memories” Fiona! (with apologies to Bob Hope) 😀
Kitty Hugs, Sammy
Fangtastic! Have a wonderful wordless Wednesday.
Best wishes Molly
Are you missing a fang?
LOL @ Fiona showing off her fang
Have a fangtastic week 😉
Is this a yawn or a laugh? We like to be sure. MOL!
Wow, you know, you could totally be on True Blood, Fiona. Seriously. You could be the Bar Cat at Fangtasia.
Mommy likes opening our mouths to get a good look at our fangs. Something about getting us used to having our mouths opened.
I keep showing my fangs to Waffles…but he doesn’t seem to get the message.
; ) Katie
Fangs for the memories! (I couldn’t resist.)
Our mommy thinks kitty fangs are cute. Yep, she’s weird.
So does our mommy, as long as they are not stuck in some part of her anatomy. MOL! Purrs and hugs, Lily Olivia, Mauricio, Misty May, Giulietta, Fiona, Astrid, Lisbeth and Calista Jo
We thought we heard someone singing! Carl would love to join you in a sweet aria.
Where’s the other one?
Sophie only has one fang, too. Tooth decay!
