For Our Crockett

Today woulda been Crockett's 5th Gotcha Day. It are kinda a sad day 'round here cuz he ain't here to celebrate it.... and he should be. Life are so unfair sumtimes it hurts. We is all doin' as gud as we can wiffout our lil ray of sunshine. He were just the sweetest lil feller.

Momma knew dat dis day wud hit her hard so she got together wiff Travis' & Kinley's momma to set up a blog hop to honor our little Razzberry Kitten, Crockett, by wearing orange. All of us wore orange today... my Momma,  Kinley's & Travis' Momma, Angelique's Momma,  my Dad and all us critters.

And wow, to see all da folks and critter pawticipatin' in dis memorial to our lil buddy makes me feel a  lil bit better... which is all a pup or person could ask for at such a sad time.... to know dat he touched so many lives and gave so many people a reazun to smile duz dis ole pup's heart gud. Thanks to all who have joined in da Blog Hop, worn orange, and sent and left nice messages for us all. We sure duz appreciamatates it.

Momma wouldn't let me put up her foto... says dat 5 days of crying don't do nuthin' fur a 60 year old dat anyone would want to see.

So you'll have to just make do wiff pics of me and Brinley, courtesy of Travis' & Kinley's momma... I know ya all is all tore up about dat, snort, chuckle, chuckle....

I's almost 13 years old (yep, my birthday is coming up on Wednesday) and I tells ya, dis saying good-bye stuff to yer buddy don't get no easier wiff time. I's lost too many furiends.... Hank, Charlie, Jezabel, Maurice, and Whitley.... 

And now, totally unexpectedly, Momma's lil ray of sunshine, Crockett aka Crockett da Rocket, Crockett Man, da Razzberry Kitten,  and Crockie. I knows y'all is surprised I ain't her ray of sunshine, but I is a terrier, ya know.... not all of us can be set to Happy all da time like Kinley is.  I swears, sumtimes I think her switch is stuck on just dat one setting... she can git told "bad pup" and she just smiles about it. 

Crockett did seem to glow when he wuz in da sunbeams... kinda like he was corralling all da warmth and glowiness of da sun so he could spread it evfurrywhere and cheer ya up... he wuz like dat. Momma sez he wuz a ticked tabby-- solid color on da body, not stripey, and it made him glow.

So I's posting photos of him in da sunlight, so's ya can see whut I mean... an Ode to my Momma's Sunshine Kitten....

Thanks to evfurryone fur all da luv ya has shown us...  and our lil orange guy.

Bark ya later, gators...
