Twelve years ago I saw a mother cat and her kittens passing through our front yard. There were a lot of feral cats in our neighborhood back then. I called out, “Here kitties, kitties!” The momcat and two kittens disappeared into the woods and were never seen again. The third kitten came to me. We named him Tommie and we lived happily ever after.

They look like they are saying, “We are very nice kittens. Can we go home with you now?”

Catnip is one of the first plants leafing out in the garden each Spring… and my cat Tommie knows exactly where to find it. Happy Easter!

Meanwhile, back at my house, Gracie ( formerly the PAWS kitten ‘Windy’) and Tommie were busy working on sudoku puzzles.

Our polydactyl cat Tommie will shake paws if he is in the mood. It’s obvious from his reluctance that I forgot to say “Please”.

Benjamin, at the shelter, has lovely white paws. But at home, my boy Tommie has champion polydactyl paws.
