Pepper's home!
With the snow, ice, and below freezing temps for over a week, my 8 year old cat, Pepper, has been gone. I, of course, feared the worst since he hasn't come home. But, today, thankfully, he came home. Just to eat, but at least I know he is OK. He is an outdoor cat, almost feral, but he allows me to pick him up and stroke him briefly. He doesn't like my "granddog" Punk, a dachshund, and a year old sickly cat I have named "Freddy von KittyCat"-aka Fred. So, he avoids them. After all, he is the "alpha male" in the animal kingdom here!

My cat is 22 years old, and is one of the small variety...so still looks like a kitten. Her name is Patches. Every once in a while she goes out and doesn't come home for a day or two. It always upsets me and I pray for angels to guide her home. She has never really meowed so she just sits and stares at the door like it will open if she stares hard enough. :) Gamamwinkie is a very unique name. I am sorry you are so ill with pain. I have 'arthur' and fibromyalgin (sp?) and about 6 other things mainly due to heart. Isn't life fun! :) But God is good and I praise Him through all of it! :) Oh, and I have 3 married children and 7 grandchildren. Oh...LOL...and I love to quilt and embroidery.
ReplyDeleteCathy, thanks for the nice note! It is snowing like crazy here in Tennessee today- we already have about 4" here...I let Fred in for a while to warm up. He usually sleeps on the porch in a carrier with towels inside and outside to block the wind. Pepper is hiding somewhere...
ReplyDeleteSorry about the aches you are having as well.
Aren't grandchildren the best?
