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.

I’m so glad you like your fevver ball, Astrid. I was just playing with mine last night. One of my favorite games that I like to play with it is Monkey in the Middle. Mom and Dad throw it back and forth to each other, and I leap in the air to try to intercept it. It’s so much fun!!! Those are some really great photos your mom got of you. I especially like that last one. You are looking beautiful, as always. Sending as many kisses as there are treats in the world, plus some extra snuggles too. Love, Sampy
P.S. Mom and the rest of the kitties send love and hugs.
Awww…..what a super sweet pressie from Sampson!!!
Hugs, Sammy
