A Very Special #TuxieTuesday - Kitten to Cat

Today's just a regular Tuesday. Gloman gave me my early morning crack snack. Glogirly and I shared our mid-morning breakfast time while Waffles looked over my shoulder hoping for a quick grab-n-go. A nap here, a sun puddle there. 

So there's nothing really remarkable about today specifically. But all of these Tuesdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays... and everything in between are filled with something really special. They're filled with seemingly ordinary moments that make life extraordinary.


Ten years ago I was just a kitten in a shelter when a nice man with a deep voice picked me up, looked into my eyes and said, "You're the one, kitty cat." I didn't know what he meant. My name wasn't Kitty Cat and I certainly wasn't the only one there. 

Looking back, that was one of those moments. 



Sometimes it's just a look.



Sometimes just a touch.



"Thankful"
I wouldn't trade my string of moments for anything. 


xo,
Katie

  9. I think you even touched Faraday's flinty little hea--- no, no, that was just heartburn (one too many bonito flakes, I'm sure).

    Seriously, that was beautiful. And very true.

  11. Ah Katie, that is so true. It is from just a look and from a touch from all beautiful furbabies we fall in love with. You had such a cute look for Gloman that he could not resist giving you a good home and that he did. Look at you today! You are loved! Have a great #TuxieTuesday beautiful Katie girl. Xo

  15. Lovely post. And I don't think I've ever seen a photo of Katie as a kitten before - no wonder Gloman picked her!

  16. Katie, we agree! We cherish our ordinary moments. Together they weave a comfortable blanket that wraps us in love. You sure we're a beautiful little kitten. I hope that many cats and dogs find themselves adopted today, and tomorrow, and so on. With lots of love and purrs, Z-girl and the Squeedunk Cats...

  22. Today’s not your Gotcha Day, is it? I thought it was the Glo-peeps anniversary. If I’m wrong, Happy Gotcha Day. Those photos are gorgeous and so are you. Pop is gonna love this post waiting for him when he gets home from work. Just like me, he thinks you’re a special little girl cat.
