Cat Kisses

Sandpaper kisses
On a cheek or a chin
That is the way
for a day to begin!

Sandpaper kisses
A cuddle and a purr.
I have an alarm clock
That's covered in fur!

Albert Schweitzer - "There are two means of refuge from the miseries of life: music and cats."

We are often asked what or who started our love for cats. In walks Polo... In 1990 an air conditioner repairman found this little kitten under our home. He knocked on our door and asked if he was ours. Well I had never seen him before, although I did wonder why our dogs were barking so much! I brought him in the house to clean him up and give him some food. We had 4 dogs at the time and I did not think that a little bundle of fur would fit in, but I had no idea what we could do with him. Well, when Tom got home from work and walked in the house, there sat Polo on the sofa as if to say "hello, what are you doing here and who are you anyway?" The rest is history! Above you see Polo as a little kitten and today as a rather big boy! Below are 2 pictures that show how he moved in and took over. He definitely thinks he is the Cat King in our house (although others disagree!)

 

 

Paul Gray - "One must love a cat on its own terms."

Next are 2 pictures of Frankie. The first one was when he was 8 weeks old and he just had his first bath-not his favorite activity! The last picture is a healthy, happy Frankie taken in 1997.

 
 

 

Mark Twain - "If man could be crossed with the cat it would improve the man,
but it would deteriorate the cat."

This is Boots. Do you think he lives the good life? He was named after Tom's kitten when he was a little boy. And this is truly Tom's cat-just ask him! You will find Boots in this position quite often. It is either time to eat or time to sleep.

I had many requests to see the rest of the family, MC, his borther crossed the bridge but here is the rest of the gang-the kittens were born on Mother's Day in 1991.

 

     

 Baby (the mother)

 KC

 Yoda (known as Dodie)

This is Bob. He is definitely Linda's cat. He likes to play fetch with his toys in the middle of the night or pick on the other kitties then thus causing a ruckus and waking us up! The first one is Bob today the 2nd one is Bob at 5 weeks of age.


Jean Cocteau - I love cats because I enjoy my home; and little by little, they become its visible soul.
