The Kitty's Corner

All my life, I have always had a cat living with me. They are my favorite pet to own, and of all the pets I have owned in my lifetime, it was a cat that completely stole my heart. When my beloved cat Caspian died, I was heartbroken. But then my husband and I spent an evening recalling all of the good times with him and all of the times he made us laugh with his antics. It was surprisingly cathartic. That's when the idea for this blog began to form in my mind. This is a place to post stories of ours (and your) cats. What heartwarming or funny story do you have of your cat, living or passed on? What about your cat makes you smile when you think of it?
