Most of the snow is melted out there, and new snow falling is pretty but not amounting to much. Browsing photos I often encounter Cookie, including these from March 2010, as the snow slowly melted after a series of heavy storms in February and on our first excursion outdoors in

Mimi was not so lucky today—we stepped out to feed the birds and she only too the time to sniff a few things then run back inside! We’ve been going outside every day all winter long, but Cookie found the snow and ice just weren’t fun anymore on her 19-year-old

Cookie and Mimi spend some cozy hours on the pile of pillows on my bed while the day fills with rain and fog outside the window. I often think rescued kitties take a little time on bad weather days remembering the days before their rescue. I know Mimi does because

Mimi and Mr. Sunshine keep an eye on the activities at the bird feeders as the snow swirls around outside their window. Is it birdwatching, or meditation, both, or do the mesmerizing movements of the birds and snow lead to a meditative state? They do for me, but perhaps I’m

As the winter passes and spring slowly unfolds in the back yard I’m remembering the years Cookie and I spent out there. Browsing photos I often encounter photos of her, including these from March 8, 2010, as the snow slowly melted after a series of heavy storms in February. Even
