Blanket Surfing

During the night, my oldest
cat climbs in bed and sleeps
on my feet.  She stays there
all night.  As I move in my
sleep, my cat gracefully
blanket surfs.

Follow Me

Little paw pads scamper down the
hall, across the room and up into
the window sill.   Now they
thunder back up the hall and
across my feet.  One cat chasing the
other?  Stop it you two.  "No momma,"
her eyes say.  "I'm not chasing her,
she's my jogging partner."

Not Today

It was like a dance, trying to coax
and finally capture Quest.  She yowled
all the way to, and into, the carrier.   As I
went to close the carrier door  Quest
burst free, down the hall she  dashed and
under the bed she went.  Afterward, all
of the cats, and myself included, were
all fairly traumatized.  That was my
one chance for today.

Pet Carrier

The pet carrier has been brought
out and placed in the
living room.  Tomorrow I shall
try to capture my oldest cat, a 14 year old,
stuff her in the pet carrier and
take her to the vet.  She doesn't seem
well and we're worried about her.  In
prep I need to go find my Kevlar jacket, or
chain mail.  I wonder who will
win the wrestling match.

Shoes

In the past few days,
our sweet old cat, Quest,
has taken up the same
unusual manner of
hanging out in the closet
and laying on my shoes.
So reminiscent of
her sister, Shy, who
took great comfort in
my shoes during
her final days just
before she went away.

Happy birthday

to another.
I told you
I'm the crazy
cat lady.

Beckoning

My cat waits
patiently.
Beckoning me
from the sofa
to join her
in a nap.
What can I do?
But go.
