HI Judith — Thanks for your comment. It’s so interesting how our cats will tell us their names. And if we choose the wrong one, they will persuade us to change it to a more suitable nickname. All part of the mystery I suppose.

I, too, have always been a cat person. Loved my aunt’s cat until I got “Junior”, my first. Since then have had “Kookie” (named after a TV character, “Kasey” (for Kansas City, I think-my sister’s cat), “Twinkie” who had a litter-“Coconut”, “Tabby”, “Pirate”, & “”Twinkie”. Now have “Zoey” who had a brother we called “Ollie” named after cartoon characters and “Phoebe” named after the character on Friends. Cat names can be so interesting don’t you think?

Thanks Sandra! I see that you found me on twitter. 🙂 I did have two cats. Sheena & Gizmo when I was a kid. At least I have memories, right?

Cats recognize our willingness to share, and recognize a good home when they see one. Thanks for sharing Misu/Chloe’s story. I once had a cat who would wander into our neighbor’s house, watch TV with them for half an hour and then come home. They thought he was a stray until they saw him on our front lanai.

We have never considered ourselves to be ‘cat people’, but cats tend to gravitate to us. We even had a beautiful one show up unexpectedly and adopt us for her own. We named her “MisuMisu” called Misu for short…several years later while we were on the front lanai and Misu was sitting on a bench with us, a neighbor from up the street walked by, spotted her and cried “Chloe! Where have you been all this time?”…it turns out that Misu had been living just a few houses up from our Inn and when a second female kitty was introduced to the household her feelings were hurt and she looked around for another family to adopt…She lived with us until she crossed over the rainbow a couple of years later…

Aloha Jennette — thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. What’s your handle on Twitter? Frustrating when family members are allergic. Miss Muffett advises you pet every cat you can — even if they cannot live in you house.

Miss Muffett replies that the ruth that cats are adorable is a not strange at all. It is the world as it should be.

Miss Muffett confides that Priscilla is a miracle of kitty bliss. But wonders why she has not yet been served in a teacup.

People who share their life with a cat(s) are blessed. I have been blessed my entire life by cats. Presently I live with a “clowder” of cats. Several years ago there was a very special calico cat with amber colored eyes. She chose to live with me an soon became Princess Amberina. She would take her meals in a porcelain bowl & her water from a teacup with saucer to match. The water had to be cold from the refrigerator.
I have had the privilege of “waiting on” Miss Muffet’s when her household staff is away. She is truly royalty.
Leonardo da Vinci said “The smallest feline is a masterpiece.” If you’ve ever met Miss Muffet you’d think he was referring to her.

Beautiful color! Sadly, I do not have a cat, and I don’t think my hubby will change his mind on it with both him and my son allergic. But I can admire them from a distance I suppose. It’s funny to have stumbled across your blog post on twitter this evening as I just blogged about authors and pets, and wondering if I was missing out not having one. ha! Thanks for sharing!
