 🍀 Enjoy the day! 🍀

P.S. March 17, 2020 was the date that we brought Celestial Sweetie inside.

She'd been an outside cat since we'd TNR'd her in 2009, and she really enjoyed her inside retirement with a heated bed, soft blankets, and no other cats to bother her in Sweetie's Apartment (now Henryville).


Miss you, Celestial Miss Growly-pants!

❤️

Let's Hop!

    Makes the perfect anniversary date for remembering when the sweetie came in the house. And just like Henry is finding out, living inside is pretty darn nice. Happy Saint Patrick's day.

    Happy St. Patrick’s Day! St. Gertrude is also the patroness of cats, I believe.

    Celestial Sweetie was precious, even if she was a growly-pants.

    It is Evacuation Day where we celebrate Henry Knox’s men dragging cannons to the Dorchester Heights to fool the British to think they were outnumbered and they evacuated Boston never to return. I heard the Irish have some claim on the day too
