Misty 1968-1981
My childhood cat,
A black and white beauty
Who loved a dangling string,
The last of my Dad's ice cream,
And clawing the green chair.
Your purr will last forever
In my heart.
Missy 1979-1986,
Adopted, WI Humane Society 1982
A sweet and shy
White with black kitty girl.
She adored Meow Mix, curly ribbon
And exploring the porch of our upper flat.
We will always see your bright green eyes
Sparkling at us.
CoCo 1986-1993
Adopted, WI Humane Society 1986
Our playful, affectionate tortiseshell
Who cried at night to her
Toy spider on a cord
And plucked stitches like a guitar string.
Our brief moments together,
cherished forever.
For all cats who are abused, neglected, and suffering, especially those unknown ones at the side of the road...
O Lord, have your angels take them gently...

King Marmalade 1993-2004
Adopted 1993 from friends
Our orange tabby with white
who was the orangiest in the land.
Absolutely in charge,
we cherished his awesome presence
every moment.
He will rule us forever from heaven,
where he sits at the right hand of God.
