Feline Slumber Beside the running waters "I sit" the calm of the stream sooths my mind the cares of the day drift upward and relaxation comes with time, The birds sing there sweet songs the wind makes the grass sigh the trees bend with age, with my old limbs, so do I, My mind drifts with the sounds of nature I relax and go with the tide this is the path i am taking the tall grass makes it easy to hide Refreshed from my slumber I try and catch a fledgling or two to take them home to my mistress Because that is what tom cats do...

Oh, Annie, this is precious! What is your darling, sweetie-pie, kitty-cuddle's name? Please stroke, kiss and cuddle him from a South African owl. If I were there, I would be only too delighted to be caught by him. - Owl |

Thank you for this Annie. I am sorry (for you, but happy for him) that Gypsy is in Heaven now. So you won't be able to stroke him and kiss and cuddle him for me, but Flicka (I know you will remember my telling you about my wonderful horse in Heaven) will - even the stroking, he will be able to do with his muzzle. As I think I told you, Flicka adored/adores all animals, especially dogs and cats. I know that they know and love each other. Is Kerry in Heaven too? If so, Flicka will know and love her equally. If not, please give Kerry the strokes and kisses and cuddles. Owl |
