GRASSHOPPER!!

I recognized that tuxie-face immediately!! A whole 16yrs old? You've gotta be kidding me...you don't look a day over 2!

I'm very impressed and delighted by your life-long profession--purrhaps you could be my mentor, as I've always wanted to learn how to purr. Purr Therapist. Wouldn't that be impressive on a resume? I wonder which category that would fit under... "education," "foreign language," "special skills," or maybe "awards received." Hmm, I shall have to consult my friend and purrsonal career counselor on this one.

Grasshopper, if I were there--and with your purrmission--I would adorn those kitty toes and ears with kisses.

Headbumpies, belly-rubs, and leather shoes to you!

Congrats on your day in the sun!

I know I've seen this beautiful cat on the pages of pettalk before. It is so nice to see a lovely tux cat that has been with her family for so long (she doesn't look 16!). Our cat Sam who we have had for 14 years meowed her approval at your photo and my daughter insisted I print it out for her. May you enjoy many more years of happiness with your beautiful grasshopper and may she get whatever she wishes today!

[ganime]

Good Morning Grasshopper to a fellow San Diegan, I know your birthplace well, Camperland on the Bay, my we have been camping there many years ago. It seems that you are well known here on the Cat board, so I'm not to familiar with you since I am mostly on the Dog Board.
I must say you are quite the beauty, and what a wonderful family that you have, who love you so much, and I can see why.
Congratulations dear, handsome, Grasshopper Our Very Best Cat of the Day. I'm sure your family will be giving you some very special treats on your very special day.
Jackie, Miss Daisy and Perry

Will sneak in a quickie -
Thanks, all! I had to leave the two of them home on their B'day and come to work, but I know they're having fun together!! Will post again (I've missed a lot of special furkids lately) as soon as my 'puters fixed!! (Hard drive crashed!- new one tomorrow, I hope) OK - back to work.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY AND CONGRATULATIONS, ALL IN ONE DAY.

Beautiful Grasshopper, yes, our very own. What a delight to see your beautiful face this morning. I too loved your story. How smart you were to tell them that you just had to live with them. After all, you have a huge job to do as an in-home therapist.

We honor you today and it is always special for us when a cat that we know and love is chosen to be our Cat of the Day!
