Missing large

Cat staff since 12 when a teacher gave me one of litter. Once married a cat that resembled the first, came up to the porch to join a party and stayed for 12 years. Of the 11 who have allowed us to serve, 10 have been rescues, and 6 Siamese(3 chocolate point, 2 chocolate Applehead, and 1 lilac). The first of the chocolate points was named by a rescuer - Cafe au Lait, and the Cafe name has continued in Cafe Latte, and Cafe Mocha. The rescues have not been sought but either given to us or came on their own. They seem to know when there is a vacancy and show up to fill it. While we mourn those that are gone, they are only physically gone. We still giggle over a roast dragged halfway across the floor, or pathetically meowing strained on a neighbor's roof only to be at the food dish minutes later. Same strained pathetic cat the next day. After a discussion with her about the neighbor cutting down the dogwood she used to get on the roof(he hated cats), she never climbed upon a roof again.

    Oh, dear! Only two days until Christmas Eve. So much for Christmas cards. Friends and family will get New Year’s Day cards. Much nicer to get the later when the craziness of the season is over.

    1) will the husband ever see the strip? 2) will the husband write a thank you note, 3) will the wife be embarrassed? and 4) who really cares?

    Could be worse, it could be ‘that filthy dog’.

    I hope that the ‘dream come true’ implies all of the great cartoon animals get out of the cage, but then what happens. Be careful for what you wish, you might get it. Beware of unintended consequencies.

    Love their expressions. Santa really is all knowing and he knows what Rose will receive.

    Sirius, do what the networks are doing – re-run your dreams. They are much more interesting, and worthyof seeing again than what is on television these days.

    Cats are stealth animals, if they are animals.
