For Louise



Muscled, black with steel-green eye
swishing through the rye grass
with thoughts of mouse-and-apple pie.
Tail balancing at half-mast.
...And the mouse police never sleeps ---
lying in the cherry tree.
Savage bed foot-warmer of purest feline ancestry.
Look out, little furry folk!
He's the all-night working cat.
Eats but one in every ten ---
leaves the others on the mat.
...And the mouse police never sleeps ---
waiting by the cellar door.
Window-box town crier;
birth and death registrar.
With claws that rake a furrow red ---
licensed to multilate.
From warm milk on a lazy day
to dawn patrol on hungry hate.
...No, the mouse police never sleeps ---
climbing on the ivy.
Windy roof-top weathercock.
Warm-blooded night on a cold tile.

Here's a little joke to lighten things up... angelic.gif


A cat dies and goes to Heaven. God meets him at the gate and says, 'You've been a good cat all of these years. Anything you desire is yours, all you have to do is ask.'

The cats says, 'Well, I lived all my life with a poor family on a farm and had to sleep on hardwood floors.' God says, 'Say no more.' And instantly, a fluffy pillow appears. A few days later, 6 mice are killed in a tragic accident and they go to Heaven. God meets them at the gate with the same offer that He made the cat.

The mice said, 'All our lives we've had to run. We've been chased by cats, dogs and even women with brooms. If we could only have a pair of roller skates, we wouldn't have to run anymore.' God says, 'Say no more.' And instantly, each mouse is fitted with a beautiful pair of tiny roller skates.

About a week later, God decides to check and see how the cat is doing. The cat is sound asleep on his new pillow. God gently wakes him and asks,

'How are you doing? Are you happy here?'

The cat yawns and stretches and says, 'Oh, I've never been happier in my life. And those Meals on Wheels you've been sending over are the best!'

I know who I am. No one else knows who I am. If I was a giraffe, and someone said I was a snake, I'd think, no, actually I'm a giraffe.

and then one day youd be drinking from a lake with your giraffy self until you go to walk away and since youre a giraffe you cant wipe your face so youd got to lick the excess water off of your face and make a serpentine ssssssss sound. youd stop and think wait AM i a snake?! ha ha jk

I saved the pic SK.
Brings tears to my eyes.
Thank you very much.

I am very sorry for your loss.

Now per Morandir's original post...
I live in Florida about 40 mins South of Tampa. I live in a State Park because my hubby is a park manager.
I have a yellow lab named Hookah. 2 Kitties.. a grey tabby named Kit Kat and a tuxedo colored Manx named Meep Boop. We also have 2 bunnies fluffy and buttons.

I own a true crime forum and I started vaping when a member of my forum told me about e-cigs. She also told about this forum.
Then another member sent me some of her vapor4life batteries and carts. She is Jenjen here. So now I am a loyal v4l shopper.
My desk looks like an advertisement for v4l! LOLOL

I too, am sorry for your loss. I have had dogs and cats probably my entire life (49 years) and
it never gets any easier to lose one.
Hi all - I was born in Ohio, raised in Indiana, lived in southern Colorado and northern
New Mexico, and ten years ago moved to southern Missouri. I miss the mountains and
hope to move back eventually. Need to get our 16 year old through with schooling first
though. Do go to Nevada area usually once a year and see mountains. Love Lake Tahoe
and have been there several times. Don't want to move there cuz they gets lots of s-s-s-...white stuff.
