Arrival Story: Riley came to live with us after he wandered up at a job site. He was 5 miles from anywhere in the middle of a bull pasture, and had ant bites all over his face and was suffering from dehydration and heat . We were't sure he would make it, but he was a tough little guy. When I picked him up, he hugged my neck and purred. My mother-in-law wonders how we end up with so many cats. I wonder...
Bio: After Riley recovered, we noticed that he routinely missed jumps and fell, even from short distances. Our Vet determined that he has a rare condition of his back legs, causing them not to lock when he lands. While he may still face surgery in the future, Riley has learned to compensate by landing with the weight (and great it is!) on his front legs. Whenever a new addition comes into the household, Riley is the "babysitter". You can hand him a kitten and he will hug it like a child holding her doll. It's adorable. At bedtime he buries his head against you , cooing and purring. His newest thing is "holding hands" at night. I sleep with one arm under my pillow, Riley sleeps above my head, and reaches his paw out and cups his paw into my hand, and goes to sleep that way. Riley is the kind of cat, that if you could teach him to write, he'd spend his days writing love letters to Mom and Dad. My sweetheart.

I'm a diary pick today, YAY!
Thank you, darling Muppet, lovely Nakita, and family, for the Pumpkin rosette, and for letting me know!
I have a Halloween story to tell you. I hope none of my brothers or sisters have already told this one.
Many years ago, my mom worked as a manager for a 24 hour convenience store.
On Halloween, the employees all wore costumes to work. Mom dressed up as a big mouse.
As she walked around the house getting ready that morning, her mouse tail kept getting caught on the doors, cabinets, etc. (Funny, my tail never gets caught anywhere) Anyway, she got to work, and as she started in the door, she was pulled up short because her tail was caught again. She turned around to see what it had gotten stuck under this time, and there was a big orange tabby, clamped down on it, and not letting go! He caught the BIGGEST mouse he had ever seen, MOL! All the customers were laughing, and it made the day more fun.
So I hope you all have a fun Halloween too! Stay indoors, kitties, and especially you black cats!
I bet you thought mom was saying that, and I was sleeping on her head again, pulling her hair out. NOPE. It's me saying that.
The reason, is because I STILL haven't even started sending out my thank you's to the nice friends who sent me birthday presents. But I pawmouse, I WILL!
We've been really busy here, and that's no excuse 'cuz everycat and their families are busy these days. Please bear with me, and the rest of my family who is even later than I am, s-h-e-e-s-h! How embarrassing.
If I don't write again, have a Spooky Halloween, and stay safe indoors!
Hey, this birthday just keeps on getting better! COOL!
Daddy bought me a new bed. It's thick and soft, and fits between their pillows.
Mom hopes this will keep me off her head at night. hehehe...we'll see.
(there's a picture)
I got more presents from my friends too! wooohoo!
Teebo & Callie, and Tate & Tonka sent me cupcakes with blue icing! See? *sticks blue tongue out* Those are delicious! Tony, and his very beautiful sister *heavy sigh* Anna, sent me a football and a very nice note.
And I got to wear a Crown from darling 'Lil Muppet. How nice that you came by on my birthday!
Also my pals Touky, Sacha, and Minette sent a cupcake with pink icing to our Birthday Page. I'm saving that one for after dinner. Purrrs.
My birthday wish is that each and everyone of you have a healthy, happy year, and come back here on my next birthday so we can do this again!!!
