Guess who’s here?

We have a visitor in our house! Guess who it is?

It’s Simon!

My parents are taking off for a week or so, and we get to take care of their precious baby until they get back.
Unfortunately for him, Simon arrived at out place in the middle of our big end-of-summer barbecue. With 11 small children, 4 teenagers, 13 adults around. Simon is a little shy, so it took him until around 20 minutes ago to come out from under the couch. Now he’s ON the couch, all snuggled up to Rob.

Then she added the little Tweety Bird patch, just so he’d feel stylish.

Oh, cats. They are cryptic.

[...] Simon had to be put to sleep yesterday.

My mother called to let me know, and she was crying, but the vet couldn’t do much for him. He was only 3 years old. This is a very sad thing. « Whatta mess [...]
