In my dreams I soar!

This is Benji and I am not what you call a big cat.  From the beginning they called me the runt of the litter. (No thank you for that.) Sue even still doubts my birthday. Much too small to be that old she said… Continue Reading “In my dreams I soar!”

I asked for the rain to go away ….

Seems like only yesterday I asked please no more rain and today I woke up to this. It’s soft and pretty and wet and I want to play in it but it’s deeper than me.  But Tiger wasn’t afraid at all. I didn’t know he was so brave…… Continue Reading “I asked for the rain to go away ….”
