C.A.T.S.

Was very fortunate to have a VIP Tour of CATS Cat Advocates Teaching & Saving Society, in Comox, BC.

So much to see, only managed a few pics of kittens:

CATS is a volunteer-only cat rescue that works hard to find lost and relocated cats, to reduce the burden  of pet food and supply costs for the community, and educate cat owners to make the world a better place for themselves and their furry family members.

Have huge respect for CATS, and am happy to donate what I can, since I live over 4,000 kilometers away, and am unable to volunteer much.
And another gratuitous pic of Sweet Pea, who is a lovely kitty who falls asleep in my lap because she's doing her part to prevent my homesickness for Da Boyz and Henry.

The Hubby...well, I'm sure he's doing just fine without me...

Limerick

World Limerick Day is celebrated on May 12th, as it marks the birthday of Edward Lear, born on May 12, 1812. 

Lear is widely considered the father of the modern limerick, thanks to his enormously popular Book of Nonsense, published in 1846.

Tried to write my own limerick but failed miserably, so here are a few I found online:

My dear little tabby named Tippy,

Found a box that was just itty bitty,

She knew she could fit

And determined to sit,

Her success was exceedingly iffy.

Am visiting my dear friend Erica in Courtenay, on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.

Ocean views, mountains, scenic vistas at every turn, and a special little lady:

Sweet Pea!

The Hubby is taking excellent care of Da Boyz and Henry.

Meowmy's Day

The 2nd Sunday in May is Mother's Day in the US.
Happy Meowmy's Day!

❤️❤️❤️

FYI, I'm traveling this week; my posts and comments to your blogs will be hit or miss.

Hope to have some great adventures to yammer on about when I'm back.

And yes...there will be CATS! 😹
