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. 

In Honor of Mother's Day...

"Where are you going, my little one?

Where are you going, my baby, my own?

Turn around, and you're two, turn around and you're four--

Turn around, and you're a big cat, going out of the door."
