This
was our lovely "Kitty". Kitty passed away in April at the age of
eighteen. She was our buddy and my husband and I miss her very much.
She was really our youngest son's cat. Some friends said they had some
kittens and when we went out to their barn to look at them, all but one
scattered. Just because she stayed doesn't mean it was easy catching her.
When our son was finally able to grab her there was a lot of hissing and
scratching but she settled right down once we got to her new home. She was
very much a one family cat and hid whenever company came. And she seemed to
know when that last person went out the door and would show up almost
immediately to see what was going on now that company was gone.
In her younger days she loved to play with her toys and loved catnip. She
loved to sit in the windows and "get the birdies". Every morning my husband
and Kitty would have a fight. All you had to do was point your finger at her
and she got the "evil look" which you can see in the one picture. Kitty
would then jump up on the bed where she knew he was going to sit down to put
his socks on and when he would move her, the fight was on. She loved to sit
on the mouse or our arm when we would be at the computer. She also loved
potato chips and Doritos and would beg for them if someone was eating them.
And we learned not to leave a drink sitting around and walk away from it
because her paw was going in it for a taste!
When our son moved out to be married we couldn't give her up and she stayed
with us. She had attitude! She sat on our lap when she wanted to, she let us
pet her when she wanted us to, and she slept on our bed when she wanted to!
She was a beautiful cat and she knew it. Yet even with that attitude, she
would let us know she loved us too!
