marmalade boy has attitude
he knows he is beautiful
and knows we adore him
he likes fresh prawns salmon
and pilchards
being groomed with a soft brush
purrs like an engine
is extremely affectionate
is bilingual
loves books (lying on them)
is very protective
alerted us to a burglar
breaking in
and a python in the roof
a brave little puss indeed
he can never be replaced
he gave our life a dimension
that could never have been attained
without him
it was a pleasure to spoil him rotten
he gave so much in return
God given he was
always remembered
never forgotten

WHAT"S GOIN ON.....RAINING CATS and DOGS
it's still raining
cats and dogs here in sydney
been going on
for the whole year
still i suppose it's better
than raining men
(i think:) ? ? ?


What a lovely marmalade boy. I can see his personality in his face. I love the poem - and the poster of house rules! Smiles.

Lovely pictures and words.
