PO'Monday

Paddy O'Malley was comfortable inside.

He napped casually, and sat in my lap just as he did when outside.
On my lap
Comfy in that old rocking chair.
The weekends seem to hit me the hardest, because that's when I'd spend hours in the gardens with Paddy following me around, or sitting on the deck reading as he slept, in my lap.

Knowing he felt secure while inside, makes my heart happy.

If only he'd stayed for awhile longer...
 
Farewell, Angel Ruby!
A dear blogging friend ran off over The Rainbow Bridge, and she will be missed here on Earth.

Please consider leaving a note at Ruby The Airdale

  6. He made the best of every single day, outdoors and indoors. If he was developing the conditions that would take him and chose to come inside, it was because he felt safe with you, and safety is more than anything to a cat, and the biggest honor he could give you.

  7. It is sad that just as he was learning to live on the inside, he left. :(
