The Thank You Train Chugs On

I think everyone here knows that I love Tuxies.  One Tuxie in particular!

As the Thank You Train choo-choos down down the track I'd like the next stop to be at...

Samantha and Mom's joint, Life from a Cat's Perspective!  LFCP is home to Samantha, a lovely tuxedo cat with a penchant for comfy, tummy-up naps!  She also displays the typical cat love for boxes.  Samantha has managed one trick that Ivy, due to advancing age and excessive wisdom, never pulled off...the trip to the top of the kitchen cabinets!  Quite accomplished is Samantha, as all tuxies are.

I'm delighted to have found John Bellen, who proudly proclaims "I Have Three Cats"!  I'd say there are far more than three, reading through the blog and counting fosters.  I am grateful to have found this blog.  Not only for the beautiful cats, but for the way he writes about his recently lost companion Tungsten.  Tungsten must have been a marvel and his memorial is touching.  His efforts during the end of Tungsten's life remind me of what LadyRanger and I did and felt as Ivy's life drew to it's close.  His writing about what was, and how now is without Tungsten is very, very close to what I wish I could write now that Maddie is gone.  I was moved to tears several times reading his blog, and quite heartened by the love he has for his other cats (of whom Renn is my fave, big, regal and floofy!)(well, regal if he's not napping tummy-up in a chair).

John, would you mind if I just sorta mad-libbed your work, y'know...copying it wholesale and swapping in  Maddie's name and habits?  I'd feel a lot smarter and more articulate if I sounded like you.   SO!  Go pay John, Cammie, Josie, Renn and Tucker, too a visit.  And read about Tungsten.  You'll be glad you did.

Thanks to Smokey8, who left a comment but no URL.  Your wishes for us are deeply appreciated.

Annabelle from Manx Mnews sent us deep purrs and prayers upon Maddie's passing.  Lots of deep purrs!  There are a lot of cats (4)(four) hanging out over there, as well as someone with a nice camera and the knowledge to use it!  Just wonderful pictures!  I think that Miss Boo really, really loves sun.  If she wants to come over here, we've sunpuddles missing their kitties.  And have I mentioned that I love tuxedos?

Yes.  Yes you did.

Well then, I'll carry on...  I'll just mention that *someone* at Manx Mnews has a serious toy obsession.  If that's not enough to make you go visit, well, you need more coffee.

That's it for this week.  We hope your week is quick and smooth.  Thanks for coming by.
