KC Kitty went home to Bast at 9:57 on 28 July, 2010.
Farewell KC
Cotton soft, a puff of fluff,
gentle soul, in love with all,
nightly sleeping on my feet,
Skitter’s kitten, Sphinx like, sitting
in the sun’s hot glare,
You’ve been our dear for fifteen years.
How will we smile without you?
Egyptian eyes, timid yet wise,
old soul, what have you seen?
How many lives has your love blessed?
How many yet to come
before your spirit journey’s done?
How sad we are to lose you.
And yet we know you must move on
to rest a while in Bastet’s arms,
to play with Skitter in the grass
where butterflies abound.
I’ll hold you tenderly in dreams
And once my tears have dried,
I’ll see you in my memory,
greet you with arms spread wide.
Be well! Be free! Explore and see
the goodness you have wrought.
Know always that you live in me
In love and prayer and thought.

Cadeau gets the top berth THIS time! Next time Puck will be first!
|
Gees I wish KC could learn to relax!
|
Does this look like a Callie with a guilty conscience?
|
This picture is a tad blurry, but so is Freckles. I disturbed his nap.
|
Her Miminess napping on the porch in 100 degree weather! I tried to bring her in but she would have NONE of that. This cat LIVES for the heat!
|
Cadeau and Mimi share a chair
|
Callie has discovered the door to the GREAT OUTDOORS…
|
And has decided to stay inside
|
Puck in a contemplative mood
|
And Freckles pretending to be asleep (Hey, buddy! Your eyes are open!)
|
KC communing with the night
|
KC and Cadeau. So, what’s for dinner?
|
Callie enjoying the spring time sunshine
|
Callie at the back door watching Kitty “TV”
|
Freckles taking a break from the sun under a porch chair
|
Cadeau posing on a porch chair.
|
Oh yeah Cadeau is KING of the porch!
|
Puck pretending that he doesn’t want his picture taken
|
It’s SUCH hard work being a Puck!
|
From back to front, KC, Cadeau, and Freckles
|
KC trying to nap in spite of my RUDE camera!
|
Mimi. Yes she gets thinner by the day. She’s 20 years old and showing her age. But she’s a strong old crone! She still has her TUDE!
|
Did I mention Mimi’s TUDE?
|
Wouldn’t you know, she moved just as I clicked. But here’s Her Miminess again
|
Callie looking for some trouble
|
And she may have found it.
|
KC to the world: STAY AWAY FROM MY BOX!
|
KC back on the porch. It’s so good to see the kitties on the porch again!
|
Yup! Cadeau’s on the porch too!
|
YUP! Freckles too! I LOVE this!
|
KC and Puck. Boy who would have thought they’d ever get to be so cuddly together
|
Callie on top of the refrigerator. Well, everyone’s gotta be some place, I guess.
|
Yes Freckles is getting used to his perch on the cat condo.
|
Puck soaking up all that lovely heat
|
KC keeping up appearances
|
And Cadeau must have his beauty rest!
|
Cadeau (left) and KC on my bed. AWWW!
|
Freckles also looking adorable
|
Her Miminess napping on “my” corner of the sofa.
|
KC cuddling with Puck, which is why the bed isn’t made
|
Cadeau supervising Daddy’s game
|
Clearly Freckles sees something that disturbs him. Probably a Callie
|
Callie acting as paperweight.
|
Callie doing her gargoyle imitation.
|
Cadeau likes to be sure that all things digital are working properly.
|
Mimi, who is very interested in a spider at the moment.
|
KC pretending to be Freckles. That’s usually Where Freckles hangs out
|
And so Freckles is reduced to joining Cadeau on the cat condo. Oh, the shame of it all! What will the neighborhood kitties say!
|
Freckles has decided my desk chair is HIS!
|
Callie checking out a closet
|
Cadeau having a snooze on my bed.
|
Cadeau having a bite. (We have to keep our strength up donchaknow)
|
KC and Puck. Don't get used to this. Puck doesn't cuddle with other kitties all that often!
|
Meet Callie. She came to us on 5 October, declawed, hungry, and homeless. We worked very hard to find her family and couldn’t. So she’s becoming part of our family now. She’s very healthy and active and curious and sweet. So now we’re back to six cats. The others find her intimidating, even though she’s half their size. So she’s queen of the house, a position that pleases her.
|
Callie grabbing a snack. Boy is she ever an oinker!
|
Cadeau lying in the pass through between the kitchen and the laundry room.
|
Cadeau. I like his dark against the pale floor.
|
Puck likes to make sure my printer is always working in top form.
|
Puck’s worried because he can’t figure out what mischief to get into next.
|
Finally, having worn himself out, Puck settles in for a nap.
|
Freckles posing prettily!
|
And, speaking of pretty, here’s KC!
|
Mimi feels it’s her job to make sure I can’t make my bed, and she takes that responsibility very seriously.
|
KC is just SO TENSE! What to DO! LOL!
|
Puck likes to make sure I’m aware that he’s ignoring me.
|
Cadeau has claimed Skitter’s chair
|
Freckles admiring the view
|
Cadeau helping Daddy play solitaire
|
Puck on Daddy’s desk chair
|
Her Miminess on her throne
|
KC doing what he does best
|
Skitter on his special chair. I still look for him there.
|
KC had been giving Skitter a bath, but he stopped the moment I got the camera!
|
Cadeau on the chair; KC on the footstool
|
Cadeau LOVES the backs of chairs!
|
Freckles and Skitter. Skitter’s death has been hard on Freckles!
|
KC (left) and Her Miminess (right) getting ready for an afternoon snooze
|
If Mimi knew she was sharing the window with Puck she’d have a royal hissy fit!
|
Freckles wanted a glamour shot.
|
Cadeau. I think there’s a squirrel in the tree.
