Three new lives

We finally got three new kittens, rescues from the local SPCA. They are so full of life. Am I betraying my old friends by replacing them? I could never replace them. I miss them each day so terribly. Meekah, Louie, Shakey, and Whitney. Gone but never forgotten. I hope I will see them again some day along with other dogs and cats and horses I knew.

He used to carry a little stuffed bear around with him and when he was a kitten he would tilt over on his front legs with his hind legs in the air it was so much heavier than him. 2. He enjoyed a drip in our bathtub faucet at our other home and years after the drip had been fixed he would sit underneath the faucet expectantly. Even in our new home after 2006 when he got into the bathroom he would sit under the faucet and wait for the drip that never came showing cats have a long-term memory. 3. He meowed with, as I said, a gravel voice that sounded more like Bill the Cat of Bloomsbury fame than a typical house cat
