WHEN GOD CREATED KITTY CATS

When God created kitty cats,
He had no recipe;
He knew He wanted something sweet,
As sweet as sweet could be.

He started out with sugar,
Adding just a trace of spice;
Then stirred in drops of morning dew,
To keep them fresh and nice.

He thought cats should be soft to pet,
Thus He gave them coats of fur;
So they could show they were content,
He taught them how to purr.

He made for them long tails to wave,
While strutting down the walk;
Then trained them in meow-ology,
So they could do cat-talk.

He made them into acrobats,
And gave them grace and poise;
Their wide-eyed curiosity,
He took from little boys.

He put whiskers on their faces,
Gave them tiny ears for caps;
Then shaped their little bodies,
To snugly fit on laps.

He gave them eyes as big as saucers,
To look into man’s soul;
Then set a tolerance for mankind,
As their purpose and their goal.

Benevolent … and … generous,
He made so many of them;
Then charged, with Fatherly Concern,
The human race to love them.

When one jumped up upon His lap,
God gently stroked its head;
The cat gave Him a kitty kiss,
“What wondrous love,” God said.

God smiled at His accomplishment,
So pleased with His creation;
And said, with pride, as He sat back,
“At last. . .I’ve reached purr-fection!”

Feline Friday and Sunday Selfies

Here we have Midge (age 17) on top and Inky below.  We had to take Midge to another vet on Thursday. She’s been limping on her rear left “ankle.”  We originally took her to an alternative vet who provided some Chinese herb liquid. It seemed to be helping initially, then her limp became worse. So we went to another vet since the first vet was out of town. We were supposed to get the radiologist report back Friday but they never called. The vet is hoping it’s just arthritis (best case) but is afraid the mass might be cancer (worst case).  Please pray for this little baby.  She’s the first kitty I’ve ever had in my life. I’m praying it’s arthritis because we can treat that. Thanks.

Obviously, Midge is better at selfies than Inky is! 😉

Sunday Selfies

Mom was trying so hard to capture my long white whiskers. She thinks they’re so pretty. I refused to look at her. HA! All she managed to do was frustrate herself with her efforts. Why, she even cut off my ears. Me? I just got up and walked away. I mean, enough is enough! And, yet, she’s going to post the picture anyway. Hmph!
