Every Cat is Unique
Of that there is No Doubt
Each with their own Personality
To say what they're about!
After I lost my beloved Sweetums having shared Purrs and Love for 19 years ~ My Heart Shattered and part of me Died as She left me ~
I heard her last Purrs and final Heartbeats as my own heart was breaking. That was on Halloween 2007.
I considered having NO more Cats! Just me and my Pomeranian & Arabian horse. But as Friends said to me... 'Cat, Can you imagine a home with no Meows?' I knew they were right but the idea of another Cat in my arms was an idea that hurt too much ...
December 13th: Phone call from Persian Breeder (#13 = My Fave Number!)
She said she had a litter of 3 Black Male, Black Female (sold) and......
A BLACK SMOKE FEMALE (I did NOT want a Male!)
Black Smoke has been my favorite but I never was lucky enough to breed one or buy one...
When she told me how high up in the mountains she lived, far from me... My heart sank because I did not want to drive that far and that high up....
She then said:
'I have NO problem bringing her to Boulder!'
December 16th...
AshAvAri Arrived!
AshAvAri is a STAR Name
(My own & a REAL STAR in our Galaxy, Named for me when a friend bought a star from the Cheon org...)
Her full name is: AshAvAri Ashanti of Atlantis. A lot to live up to! And....she has! At 4 months old she WON an online Cat Beauty Contest over hundreds of entries! I was shocked!
She is a pure Extrovert - Brave - Bold! NO fear resides in her at all! She meets & greets all Visitors!
She adored the Pomeranian and would jump all over Cowboy, but he wanted NO part of that! Only has Paws for Me
I soon noticed her ‘Oddity!' SHE HAS A PHONE FETISH!
As soon as I take the Phone from the Cradle and place it on the bed as I watch TV she immediately jumps up and pulls it to her, covets it, and goes to sleep ON it!
At times I can hear her Stomach Ringing and I have to gently pull it out from under her.....
IF she cannot have the phone her next object of love is THE REMOTE. I call this a Plastica--Mania!
She has another odd habit that NO other Cat in my life has ever had - SHE IS A LICKER!
She will Lick (Groom?) on my hand up to the shoulder IF I do not stop her! Non Stop!
She will lick my nose if I lower my head near her face....
I know that Dogs lick on their person
But... a CAT?
Would enjoy hearing from anyone who relates to any part of this story.

"Cats make one of the most satisfying sounds in the world: they purr ...
A purring cat is a form of high praise, like a gold star on a test paper. It is reinforcement of something we would all like to believe about ourselves - that we are nice."
