Monster Loves You

In addition to being our Cat of the Month for May, Big Boy was also our very first Lovable Monster.

These are cats whose adoption fees we are sponsoring in memory of our own adorable beastie, Mike Wazowski. As with our Boo Buddies in November, our May monsters are chosen because they somehow embody the spirit of the kitty we lost.

Only child

For the first time in her life, Cali is an only cat.

And she loves it.

Saying Goodbye

We knew when we took PeeWee in that we wouldn't have him for long. There's that whole 'hospice' part of hospice fostering, yano?

But we were lucky enough to have him in our lives for a little over a year. And we'll have him in our hearts forever.


Some mornings I would wake up with PeeWee purring against my back and Starbuck curled up behind my legs as the wind chimes gentled tinkled outside and, for a few moments, everything was right with the world.


I'm going to miss this sweet boy more than words can say. He deserved a long life with healthy sinuses and robust kidneys. We tried to give him the best life possible with the chronic sinusitis and CKD he was handed instead.

Rest in peace, dear boy.
