Lucky Cats

WAFFLES:  Hey Boss! What are you looking at?



KATIE:  I'm not really looking. I'm just thinking.

WAFFLES:  What are you thinking about? Chicken?

KATIE:  No, Waffles. There's more to life than just chicken, you know.

WAFFLES:  Turkey? Tuna? 

KATIE:  NO, Waffles. We're just very lucky. 

WAFFLES:  You've GOT to be talking about chicken!

KATIE:  We're the lucky cats, Waffles. Somehow, we were chosen. With me it was Gloman. And with you it was Glogirly. They chose us. They didn't even know us, but they loved us from the very first moment they saw us. We're the lucky cats, Waffles. We have a safe home where there's always breakfast and dinner and treats and toys. We have a family. 



WAFFLES:  Doesn't everycat have that?

KATIE:  No Waffles. Not even close.

WAFFLES:  What can we do? We're just a couple of cats. Pretty small cats. How can we ever do anything big enough to help all those cats?

KATIE:  Well, small is ok. Because lots of smalls can make something BIG.



A Commentathon in Memory of Sparkle
Please visit Sparklecat.com today to honor our friend and

  1. True words Miss Katie. We're very lucky to have the family we have. It breaks my heart that so many go without having a loving family.

  11. Boy don't we know how lucky we are. At least with Junior, he was in a rescue, but me and Sammy were turned out and left in the cold and heat till Meowm saved us. Emmy had a home, then ended up in a shelter and was saved just in time.

    Off we go to comment. If Meowm wasn't shelling out green papers to do a kitty transport this weekend, she would donate to a rescue. But she is doing her part getting a kitty to his forever home.

  12. Every week when I get home from my cleaning shift at PAWS and see my own dear formerly feral Tommie and Mickey Mouser, I know just how lucky they are. And how amazingly lucky that we found each other.
    I love that phrase, "Because lots of smalls can make something BIG."

  13. Although I think Waffles doesn't know how lucky he is because he is lacking fried chicken. Silly boy! He has the life, right Katie?

  24. Pop fell in love with me when he first saw me on Petfinder. Yep, from small things, big things sometimes come, as The Boss would sing.

  28. I remind my kitties all the time of how lucky they are compared to lots of kitties out there..a comfy little
    home..food..treats..toys..and most of all LOVE..We don't have a lot but we always share with any kitty or puppy that needs us..Sparkles passing has reminded us humans how much our pets mean to us..how fragile their little lives can be..and how much they give back to us every day..we visited her memorial yesterday and donated to Tabbys Place in her memory..We..as humans and kitties must make sure that the love and caring that she started never ends..pass it on..and on..and on..it is the least that we can do to repay all that she gave to us..Lots of smalls can make something BIG..So right Katie..you and Waffles are so lucky to have the loving family that you have..Hugs to everyone..
