A Big Part of Our Lives

Feathers of Hope was neglected for a long while but we’re both glad to be back to our alternating daily posting practice. One of the things we never did here was introduce the no-longer new cats. Charlie and Diego both died before we moved into town; we had been living here for a few months and decided we needed cats back in our lives.

The SAWgust prompt today was “Companions,” a pet tax asking about our pets. Here’s my entry from today, along with the photo at left:

Two gray cats that were rescued as kittens from under a pallet behind Walmart when it was blisteringly hot. Very different personalities… Winston is big and muscular, with a meow that is much higher and pitiful than his ballbuster persona would imply, and Esmerelda aka Esme aka Missy who always always looks scruffy even after you’ve brushed her.

ETA this was taken in winter; there is no way they’d be this close today even in the coolish pre-dawn hours….
