Dear kitty doesn’t often play
But today he did.
Leaping, prancing, dancing
Chancing a paw
Biting the green felt
He’s happily chasing
The toy flying, whirling
Exciting
Happy cat…
He’s playing

She purrs
Lose one cat and another one gets more friendly, wants more attention. The trouble is this one comes and sleeps on my thighs or on my bladder in the morning! It’s very difficult as I wake up…. It makes for uncomfortable feelings. Cramp and aches and well… Desperation!
But I’m so glad to have her here, she and her brother are still here to have them. My memories of all of them are a great comfort.
Paw print
When I got up this morning there was a letter on the mat. I opened it and it was a sympathy card from the vets who had treated my poorly cat a couple of weeks ago, and eventually had to put him to sleep.
It was so kind, they said they could see we had a close bond and that I cared very much for my cat. I am so sad but proud that they felt this and had taken the time to write to me. I will treasure his pawprint forever.
Friendship
He would sit by my side
Keeping me company
My heart is heavy now…
He’s gone
How do I know he loved me?
His purring voice
His kneading paws
He was my two toned friend
Walking away, a single look back
Goodbye, I’ll see you later…
(for my cat)
Farewell
Farewell Woody cat
A huge chunk of my life has just passed over the rainbow bridge and it’s such a shock. He’s been quiet and sleepy for a few days so I took him to the vets. Unfortunately he was diagnosed with end stage kidney failure and they couldn’t do anything for him.
I’m in bits. He was a quirky cat who slept on the middle steps of the stairs and endangered me every time I tried to get past him. He was a big soft giant of a cat and would put his paw out when he was lying down to say hi. I will miss him very much.
How do cats brains work?
This is a cat igloo, to keep my cat warm at night, it has become more of a hammock as the cat insists on sleeping on top of it! My cats all sleep in odd places, on the side of the bath, like a gymnast on the beam. Or halfway up the stairs. This is my biggest cats’ habit and since he almost fills a whole step it’s a good job he has some white fur so I can see him when I’m climbing up, or coming down stairs! He’s a real trip hazard!
Random cat
A website I used to use to create abstract images on has now changed so radically that I’ve lost my understanding of how it works. Instead of an art site it’s become much more of a portrait filtering site.
To say I’m disappointed is an understatement, it used to be far more interesting. Now it limits the options I can use and a lot of the tools are behind pay walls.
Anyway I will keep trying to get used to it again.
Any type of cat
What is your favorite animal?
Old cat
But still lithe
Handsome
His tuxedo is shabby
But he makes me feel happy
Big snuggles
And his purr
Is to die for.
Cat window
I don’t notice this everyday, but this is a ginger cat window that I designed soon after we moved into our house. My friend, who was actually a carpenter, made this leaded glass window for us. It’s a really unique piece of art and I love it on a sunny day when it really sparkles. It’s about 30 years old now.
If I could I would design another window to sit in the window at the top of the stairs. I like the idea of a really gothic idea with vine leaves and a black and white cat stari6out of the window. Perhaps I will draw or paint the idea.
Cat on the stairs
One problem with a large cat on the stairs is trying to get past him. He’s almost big enough to to fit across the whole width, so if he’s there in the morning I have to tread very gingerly. He’s one of those cats who are so self important they plonk themselves down, or stretch in the most inconvenient places, in a doorway, or by the armchairs so I have to sidle past him.
It’s a nuisance because I’m not very steady on my feet, life is like that, I wish we had nine lives like cats.
