“What greater gift than the love of a cat.” Charles Dickens
This is Blossom.
I’m checking in on her while her owners are away. She is a sweet, smallish, very soft kitty.
She usually greets me as I get out of my car. We go inside and fill her food and water. Then we spend time together sitting on the front porch listening to the birds.
Blossom lives a good life. She can come inside or go outside as she pleases through a cat door. Outside are lovely gardens, patios, a pond, woods and a large barn. Could a cat ask for more?
When I leave, she sits and watches me from the path with her one paw raised, just like Lassie did at the end of the show. Did you watch Lassie? Remember the end when the credits rolled? Is that sweet or what.
I love when you visit. Please leave a comment and tell me about a favorite pet of yours!





I loved this post. Your description and drawing of the kitty and her life are precious. Almost written as if by a cat telling about her life. I wish my kitties could go outdoors but it’s not safe for them around here so they spend the day going from window seat to window seat (in between sleeping in the closet as one of them does most days).
Oh and yes! I did used to watch lassie. I always wanted a collie.
Nice to hear about your kitties Jana. Sleeping in the closet…interesting. Our cats seem to get by with whatever we give them but, they always look at me with that “what else can you do for me” expression!
