hello everyone! my morning, yes...morning, is going fine. I'm just waiting for one of my friends to get here so we can go walking together. She and her son should have been here already , i hope they are alright. I called her on her cell earlier but she didn't pick-up, so i had to leave a message. Anyway, Tony heard one of those stray cats meowing outside of our house and boy was he mad! All the hair on him stood up making him look bigger than normal. When it finally came in the backyard and Tony saw it he was growling and hissing at it like he did last time. I know what you are thinking....'just keep the blinds closed'. Let me tell you....its not that easy, the house we had back home had a bay window and Tony loved it! He really misses his window, so we try to compensate by leaving the blinds open so he can look outside. You should see Tony when the blinds are closed.....he's pathetic....he will sit there and meow really softly, like he's crying or something, so then i feel like a bad "mom" and so I'll open the blinds. i can't say no to that cat, he is too stinkin' cute! We have had him since he was 6 weeks old, he is about 4 1/2 years now. and because we do not have children yet, Tony is like our child.....he is just so cute and his paws are all white so it looks like he has socks on! =) ok, enough ranting on how cute our cat is.....the picture speaks for itself! =) *lisa*
