Sum of All Purrs
1996-2002

ODE TO PURRS I knew the day she came to stay, That she was quite unique. You see, Vans come with warnings -- They're a challenge, so to speak. They'll try your patience -- They'll jump too high; they abound with energy. They'll keep you on your tippee toes, And do just what they please! Broken vases, broken plaques --Nothing is off limits. The higher is the better,And the pinnacle a pittance. Stair rails, plate rails --All there for them to climb. Anything you wish preserved Becomes the brunt of kitty crime. Luxuriant tail swishing in and out, Tip curling back and forth. Volcanic eyes flash electric gaze, Invisible foes to thwart. But! All is forgiven, for, oh! What sweetness -- Inherent within one form....Only God above could wrap such love, In resplendent fur so soft, so warm.   Crissie Foltz   08/31/02

Kitty was a stray and adopted me in 1989. He was the most wonderful companion and protector. Kitty was equally happy playing in the house with a catnip toy, hunting lizards in the backyard, snuggling on the couch or just basking in the Florida sunshine. He asked for very little and gave a lot in return. We communicated without words and I am grateful he chose me as an owner. -Barbara
