Cats of the Past

Many Cats have past through my life, and this page is a tribute to them

My very first cat was a tabby, who was appropriately named Tabby.
Unfortunately I never got any pictures of her, and after getting pregnant
my parents sent her and her kittens to a farm to live.

But I wouldn't be happy unless I had a cat, so my mom let me pick out
a new kitten, fluffy. He was the king of the neighbor hood weighing approximately 20lbs.
While I was away in the Navy, Fluffy past on, he was one of a kind and greatly missed.
And some nights, when all is quiet you can still hear fluffy playing upstairs, or climbing on the bed to sleep.
It's a little freaky to those that arn't used to it. But it's a comfort to me.
Of course the picture below was when he was a kitten and don't nearly show his true size!

When I moved to California, I got Monty. He was my pal,
and toughed out the trip back to Nebraska with me.
About a year after we moved back Monty was stolen by some neighbor when they moved.

The guy I was dating at the time felt bad, and went and got me two more cat's.
Princess and Lil One, he looked just like Monty, and was a momma's boy,
but once again he was stolen by a neighbor when they moved.
I couldn't believe it had happened again!!! That's when I decided from now on, only indoor cats!!!

This is Princess, Bowie (the rabbit), and Lil One

Well, Princess got herself Knocked up, and NOT by Lil One!, And had a whole slew of kittens.
Princess and her kittens were all given to good homes.

Then came George, but we'll get to him later.
A friend of mine going through a divorce had a cat that had been left at their old house,
The poor thing, I told him I would take her, her name was Smooches.
When I got her she was in bad shape.
She was a Persian and her hair was all matted,
I had to have her shaved and she had a bladder infection.
After some time of nursing my little baby back to health and showing her love
she ended up with a terminal liver disease, and had to be put to sleep.

She was a beauty, this page is dedicated to her.
