Inanna
Loki
Truly she has the
soul of a lioness,
our marmalade tabby.
Full grown,
she's a tiny cat,
yet I've watched her
defy a hawk.

'Innana'
named after
The Sumerian Goddess
of Love & War
A most loving cat,
she fostered Inanna,
even though she'd
never had kittens
of her own.
She stands guard
when we're ill, &
purrs us to sleep
when we're tired.
'Isis'
named after
The Egyptian Goddess
of Love & Fertility
Not every cat
has a name that fits:
we should have named him
Bacchus.
He lives large,
from a booming purr
to his love of
all life's pleasures:
good food,
a comfy place to sleep, and
humans to pet him.
'Loki'
named after
The Norse God
of Mischief

My Cats
I never thought I would live with more than one cat at a time, yet
here I am with 4 feisty felines.  I'm learning how different each cat is
from another, how they learn to live together, and most important, how
loving they can be.

But my favorite times are when they make me laugh.  I laugh for
sheer joy at seeing them play.  I laugh because they are curious about
everything.  I laugh at the strange places and positions they sleep in.  
And I laugh because I see my foibles reflected in their behavior.
Watching the birds hide under the eaves
It's raining harder.
More birds will hide above us.
How does the latch work?
New rule:
Don't look too closely at the
rescued cats up for adoption.

But how could I resist
a kitten who reached out to
me, purred, and 'kneaded
dough' in ecstasy when I
petted him?
'Brand'
named after
Brandobaris Foxtail
The Halfling
God of Stealth
