Tag: three cats now in carport

October 22nd. was the one-year anniversary of our final tearful goodbye to the calico cat Pretty and I called Carport Kitty, the urban neighborhood legend whose physical heart could no longer support her brave spiritual one. We were desolate with grief for months whenever we drove up our driveway toward the carport that seemed bare without her.

in January, 2023 this Dynamic Duo dropped by occasionally

I recognized the pair as Carport Kitty’s friends but told Pretty we couldn’t encourage them.

Sigh. So to honor the memory of Carport Kitty we fed her two friends.

then along came a mysterious stranger in the spring of 2023

Sigh. Sigh again. So to honor the memory of Carport Kitty we fed a young neutered male who had never laid eyes on her. In order to avoid becoming attached to this young whippersnapper, Pretty and I decided to call him Cat.

our friend Nekki fussed at us about a cat named Cat

and suggested we name him Moses

Moses is my new assistant in the laundry room adjacent to the carport.

Lest anyone forgets Carport Kitty’s “Frenemy” the OG Bully Cat, I can report he also returns regularly to patrol her former kingdom and snack on leftovers.

This evening when Pretty gets home from her antique empire duties she will see not one, but three cats who reside in our carport in one fashion or another – all sharing the legacy of the little calico cat who chose to call us her family for a time we will never forget.
