C is for … what else but CAT! Did you seriously think I would come up with a better C word? (I did … once. You can see the CAVES here.)
Sassy Lou is my only kitty furbaby that I have left. She’s definitely my little sweetie!
Most of my cat herd went to new homes this past summer / fall. It was starting to get too expensive paying for food, shots, flea prevention, and vet visits for 6 cats!!!
Winks and Sylvester, my two boys that I had for about 7 years, disappeared during 2009. Both went outside and never came home. Thankfully it wasn’t at the same time but about 9 months apart. Part of me wonders if they found new homes or exactly what happened.
Buttercup went to a new home not too far away along with two rescue kitties that were found along the road. (Yep, at one point, there were 8 cats/kittens in the house.) The lady that adopted them said all three were the best cats she ever had in her life!
Buttons moved in with a three-year-old girl and I’m positive that they are the best of friends and spend hours and hours playing together.
Penelope ventured to the next door neighbor’s farm where she has a barn full of mice all to herself. Why share a barn with other cats when you can have your very own? I still see her every couple of days on my way out of the hollow.
So while all of my furbabies have found new homes, I’m glad Sassy Lou is still around. She’s a great companion, prefers getting in my face when I type, and has the quietest meow of any cat. (Who wouldn’t love a quiet kitty?)
One day soon I’ll introduce you to the two kitties that I cat-sit during the week…

She is beautiful! So beautiful! My favorite cat ever was a calico. Sam. I miss her. We had a cat fiasco last year. Did I tell you? I hope we can get another one soon. I miss having one around!

What a precious face. I miss having cats. When our last one died, we decided not to get any more so our allergic human relatives could come visit.

I’ve never been fond of cats but it’s probably because I didn’t have one like Sassy Lou! She looks terrific.
