MIGHTY MAX

This is Mr Mighty Max.  He was my neighbor's outside kitty.  He's gone now, but he lived a very full and content (and spoiled!) life ... between my neighbor and I, we kept him fat and happy.  We had noticed he had a bit of a cold... so I told her that I would be more than happy to run him to my wonderful vet's office and get him checked out.  

Now, in the 8 years that I have lived where I live, he has never ... NOT ONCE... been on my roof.  He's always down by the food bowls ready to munch out!  He never even left our yards! 

Well, the morning of the vet visit, I went outside and looked everywhere for him.  My neighbor came out and helped me call for him.  I happened to look up - and this is where he was!  I had my camera in the car and I snatched this picture of him. 

Needless to say, we had to reschedule his appointment!  It's as if he just KNEW what we had planned for him! 

God bless him, he passed a couple of years later - he had cancer - he was a wonderful and dear friend to us both.  Even though he wasn't technically 'my' cat, he was a huge part of my life.  And this picture will forever remind me of his wonderful spirit!
