Everybody Happy

Pretty kitty wandered in one day.
      “Mustn’t feed her or she’ll stay!”
               I did, and so did she….





For the cat contest...

Hi Barbara, So true, once a kitty adopts you, you've got a friend for life. Once you feed them their puuurrrr is imbedded in your heart. Love this Kimo! Ought to do very well in the contest! Love Light Patty

Oh....I love this!! yep....if you feed them, they will stay!! Wise Kitty Cat!! (ps....by the way, Barbara..yes...we are distant neighbors. We often pass through Vacaville, on the way to visit our son who recently moved to Petaluma. And many times over the years, we always made our stop at the Nut Tree, for a lunch or dinner break. Is it still in operation?)

Oh yes, all we need do is feed them and they adopt us for life. Very nice Kimo! Love, Carolyn (Got more gifts in the mail today -- a bigger slinky and a yo-yo. What's up with this?)
