Living the Dream in Retirement
Happy Adoption Anniversary to Reo who joined our family one year ago! Her sweet disposition, boundless energy and silly antics have brought us laughter, happiness and pure love. I’m forever grateful to the family who fostered her as a feral rescue and let me become her mom.
Biscotti has been amazing about sharing things with his little sister Reo who we adopted 5 months ago. She’s taken over ownership of the cat tree, sleeps on top of the mini fridge on the porch both of which were previously Biscotti’s domain.
The one spot he still called his own is my desk chair. Often during the day and always at night, it’s where he sleeps and chills out when he needs a bit of “me-time”.
Until this weekend…..
Time will tell if Biscotti will stage a coup to reclaim his ownership, time-share or simply wedge himself in next to Reo for a snuggle. For now, he’s tolerant.
My name is Reo and my mom helped me with this blog post, she’s best kitten mom ever.
For a few hours on sunny afternoons, my dining room window showers rainbows across the floor and walls. Today I took my new kitten Reo into the dining room to show her. She proceeded to strike a few poses with the rainbows on her fur…
On Saturday I adopted a kitten named Reo from Feral Kitty Trappers. Biscotti and I had been struggling with the loss of our sweet Tipper and when I came across her profile on petfinder.com I knew I had to meet her. Just five months old, she’s a little love bug and a welcome addition to our family. While she and Biscotti are a bit wary of each other, I know in time they’ll be inseparable.
One week ago Tipper crossed the Rainbow Bridge. This post is a way to memorialize my sweet boy who was so greatly loved. His passing has left Biscotti and I with heartbreak yet so many happy memories. RIP my angel kitty.
My fancy zip-up, ultra suede puzzle mat seems to be irresistible to Biscotti. He struck so many cute poses that I abandoned the puzzle to take these photos. I mean, how do you resist this sweet boy?
Recently my veterinarian recommended Chewy.com. They have everything you need including vet-prescribed food, competitive prices, discounted monthly subscription deliveries and free/fast shipping. In every interaction with customer support, (phone or email), they’re not only responsive but fun to deal with and they clearly love animals. It’s a company where enthusiastic employees make customers feel truly appreciated. Early on I’d built “profiles” on their site for my cats, Biscotti and Tipper including the option of uploading photos of each.
This morning FedEx delivered a package which was puzzling as I hadn’t ordered anything. What was inside surprised and delighted me and I had to share this!
How can you not love a company that would send you such a sweet surprise?
Taken from two angles as I laid on the floor to get these shots.
Too cute!
