Miss Josie

“Miss Josie” Miracle Man 2/25/2022 Our neighbor Josie don’t like the snow, she comes to visit and then won’t go. Josie always eats three squares a day, she seems to think that we’re her Cafe. Sometimes she decides to stay at night, bringing to my wife great delight. Josie has become somewhat heavy with age, so Ern always gives Miss Josie the stage. In her younger days she was a real dish, but to see less of her is my every day wish. Josie had three children and wanted more, but for health reasons that wasn’t in store. Always well groomed, without shoes on her feet, Josie is a cat that belongs up the street. When first she came my wife was smitten, a skinny little thing no more than a kitten.

Deb, When Josie first came she was a starving little kitten. we started feeding her and she gained weight. then one day she appeared and was skinny and i said oh no! days later she started bringing 3 kittens. she always ate and left but the kittens stopped following her and stayed. They are now grown, stayed, and fixed. Tom
