I turned 7 yesterday

I want to thank all my friends for their wonderful Happy Birthday wishes. It made my birthday special and a little more joyful than expected.

We are still in shock about learning of the passing of our dear friend, Michelle Brunner, Catster mommy to Toulouse McNoNo. Since Tosca and I have everything a kitty could want (except a floor to ceiling cat tree), I told mommy I didn't want any birthday pressents this year. Instead, I want her to make a donation to the Siamese Cat Rescue in Michelle's name. Michelle would have loved that.

Mommy couldn't let me go completely without a birthday treat. As my happy birthday pressie from her, she cleaned off the coffee table (usually a catch-all surface of items she'll deal with later), and cleaned it with lemon furniture polish. I love to roll around on a freshly cleaned lemon surface. It's like catnip for me.

Thanks, Mommy, for the lemon pledge and thanks for donating to Siamese Cat Rescue in Michelle's name.
