Happy Father's Day!





my father loved cats
he had many stories of the cats
he had growing up
 
stories of the neighborhood cats
 
he loved their independence
their intelligence
their companionship
 
 
just one of the many wonderful things about my Dad
 
oh lucky me
to have a wonderful man as my father
 
Mom and I smile
when we speak of Dad and their last cat
Tigger...
he was Dad's great buddy
 
once in a while now
she will say
"I'm going to tell your father we should get a cat"

Don't you think there is something special about a man that loves cats? I do...my husband loves cats....and he is a wonderful man as I'm sure your father was too, Kelley. Dave always tells tales about his cat Frisky he had when he was a little boy. He feeds the feral cats that hang around the neighborhood....mostly in our backyard. But, he has taken them to the PAWS clinic and has had each one of them neutered or spade(?)...so now they just kind of lay around...but they are great at keeping the mouse population down!

I love the picture you have chosen for Father's day Kelley. So precious.
