Premium Member My Callie Cat
Two pets I’ve had who broke my heart, and one - a naughty little dog was he; for that I think when everything is said and done, he may not wear a halo! But my cat for sure is sitting by God’s throne, and she has on a halo, for while in our home, she was the best of any cat...

Callie
Callie Rocking in a chintz platform rocker, Wearing a patio dress, Day after day she hums a song, “With someone like you.” Through the window she watches, He left her far too soon, Dust and cobwebs around her gather, She hums and rocks “With someone like you. I’d like to leave it all behind.”...

My Calico was chocolate-caramel swirled, The inside of our house was all her world! Her whole concern was just in getting stroked or fed. She'd summon me each morning, jumping on my bed; then reaching out with one white paw, she'd tap my head! An oldie! (This is around the time several years ago that Callie had to be put to sleep...

(more about my cat Callie and her two "replacements") Since Callie died, new felines as precious as can be now rule my house most freely and sometimes hide from me. And neither one of them, while sitting on my bed would ever (like sweet Callie) curl up purring by my head. Nor would the pair of them (unless I set a trap!) come willingly and...
