Goodbye Good Cats
By Michael


Over the years, Mit never lost her cool

Georgia's not fierce,
just yawning

About the only non-positive thing that's happened lately is having to resettle the cats this past weekend. These two have been with us for nearly the 10 years we've lived in this house. We got Mit and Georgia before we had kids.
I'm comforted knowing they are going to our neighbors and good friends (they took our chickens late last year), that neither would enjoy boat life or the car trip that precedes it, and that the little hard drives in their brains will be wiped clean after about 10 days and they will be happy in their new home. But it's been strange without Georgia cozied up at the foot of our bed these past few nights, without Mit's little mew as the girls lug their playmate from one part of the house to another, and without a grateful little feline face at the back door waiting to be let in. Gonna miss these two.

  1. Not being a cat person I can't say I would miss a cat if I had one, but I will definitely miss the purr of my motorcycle:)

  2. How I wish you could have FEDEXED Mit to us. We are in need of fine cat and Mit is the finest. We love Georgia too but I suspect she wouldn't tolerate the 3-year old's antics in the way Mit would.

  3. It was great to get a final dose of Mit-love yesterday. Glad they're both settled into their new home.
