Happy (belated) Father's Day!

"I may not be a dad, but I'll wear a tie if it gets me treats!"

It isn't easy being green

Someday, my prince will come. . .

(And no doubt, he'll be a cat.)

I watched "The Muppets" movie and was utterly charmed. I didn't expect to be.  I hoped I'd like it.  Kudos to Jason Segal for knowing what tone to set and what buttons to push. Music was fun, too.  Yea, Kermie!

In Loving Memory

Mom & Rupert

My mother loved cats for as long as she could remember, but at that time and place cats weren't considered house pets.  Mom said she vowed that when she was grown, she would have cats in her house.  I'm not sure she envisioned the ten we had at one time. . . .

Mom & Melon

That's a skinny young Melon on her lap.  Note her beloved Freddie watching at the door. I think that may be one reason Fred doesn't care for Melon.

Mom died June 3, 2007.  Rupert died May 16, 2008.
