A Father's Day Tribute



"Any man can be a Father but it takes someone special to be a dad." -- Anne Geddes


Not a lot of guys like cats like women do but Pop does. We would like to thank our Pop for all the loving, care and snuggles he has given all of us over the years. He does so much for us.....he shares his food with us, has driven in snowstorms to feed feral cats, shoveling the snow to make paths for them to get around, has taken injured strays to the vet, built shelters for us when we lived outside, dug graves to bury the cats who went to the Bridge and every night before he goes to bed goes around and says good night to each and every one of us.


He helps Mom take care of us in so many ways and even though he kept saying "No more cats!" he accepted and loved each one of us that was added to the growing group!

He has his favorites...whether they pick him or he picks them...Yoko has always been his kitty and can do no wrong in his yes. She will lay on his chest with one paw on his face all stretched out like a furry tie!



Sweetpea loves to snuggle on his lap and seeks him out over Mom.



And Al is Pop's boy..he gets extra scritches and lap time from Pop. Al knows he is
special with Pop. You can see the love in Al's eyes.





Thanks Pop and Happy Father's Day from all us cats! Happy Father's Day to all the great dads out there!

  15. What a terrific dad you have. Happy Father's Day to him.

    Of course your tribute to him can be your entry. We'll put your name in the drawing.

    Oh, we went by to read about the attempted bear break-ins. Looks like your dad is also good at screening a porch and keeping out the bear.
