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.

At least everyone survived the big abandonment! In the Beginning we had to figure out how we wanted to be known, too. We do have a hard time clicking through to your site because we are not on Google+ and there is no link (unless that has changed recently), we came today from someone else’s blog. We were on Google+ but there were a couple serious problems we didn’t like so we cancelled it.
Watch out–that stuff does weird things to your head! 🙂
We want some live nip!
Kitties! If you get hungry…don’t eat the plants!!! Heeheehee 🙂
the critters in the cottage xo
that is just fabulous!
Whoa! is that all nip?? Looks like an orgy! I don’t care for fresh nip. TW has to dry it for me otherwise it would be too easy for her.

C’mon now, kittehs. There’s enough nip for everybody! (wait … or is it, “there’s not enough nip for everybody?”). Oh well. Carry on, and enjoy! 🙂
There’s nothing like fresh nip…mmmmmmmm….
Nip is oh so good but can make us oh so bad sometimes!
NONE of my seven like my fresh nip plant.. they don’t like it growing out of the pot, they don’t like the leaves snipped and placed by their side. they don’t like it when I crush up fresh leaves either.. I thought I might have had a dud of a plant until some of it dried (for way longer then it should, because they didn’t much like it freshly dried either) and then they went NUTS for it.. 🙂
I’m thinking I’m kind of glad because it means my plant is unmolested 😉
Hey, I must have misplaced my invite to your NipFest!
They do love being outside, I go out with Digger and he just discovered the tree and has been to almost all the branches. Hope you have a purrrrrfect day!

Look at you guys having all that fun out in the garden!
A couple of times my human has caught NEIGHBOR kitties dipping into MY nip garden! That is one of the downsides of being an indoor-only kitty.
Hee hee. Looks like somekitty isn’t quite willing to share the nip!
Ooh yummy fun in the garden!
This is your brain on nip. MOL! (Mommy says it makes her think of that old commercial!)
