The cats' birthdays

Fiona (17) explores the chicken that
was behind her cake.  No
she doesn't eat cake, and the cake
crumbled before we could photograph it.

Monet (3) says give me that chicken.
No she did not eat any cake!
But she does feel very happy to be
part of a family that loves to celebrate.

Two of the great pleasures in our lives are our cats --Fiona and
Monet.  They are both female Tortie Point Siamese cats. Fiona just turned
17, and Monet is 3.  Their birthdays are both on October 4th as far
as we can determine, and every year we sing to them (and so does
our dog Sally), and give them some kind of special treat (roast chicken
is their favourite and take their photos in front of little cakes --pretending
that they will eat birthday cake, which of course they won't! (Cats can't
eat cake.)

So today we tried to do the cake thing.  We knew it was two days late, but it was
the first time we had the time. We may have another try at it, because the cake
crumbled, and one candle went out prematurely. But we sang, and they got
their roast chicken treat, and seemed very happy.

Have a loving your life day.
