Homage to my CRAZY cat Toby! (Pls read description)

I "Don't" adore you because.... of your obsessive need to reenact every World War on my arms and legs, without warning or provocation. Thus always causing scarred tissue and much loss of blood!

 

NOR because of.... The continual turf wars between you and the local Cat-Gang members, who walk by the house. Which activates your internal security alarms. Causing you to wake up the family (and neighbors) with your Death Calls Warnings at 3am in the morning.

 

Not even because of.... Your obsessive compulsive dissorder and pure hatred of all things on shelves, tables and walls! Thus explaining the mysteries on how things inexplicably leap to their doom and imminent destruction!

 

And FINALLY I don't adore you because of.... Your senseless warmongering and hateful rage against so many innocent victims!

Let's now take a moment to remember all those we've lost this last year... RIP my Cargo pants (riped by Toby), My favorite cardigan and 2 sweaters (also mauld by Toby), My FLICKR hardcover photobook (gift to mom...bitten to death), A livingroom cushion, 3 long sleeves shirts (victims of world war reenactments), 2 hand painted paintings of mine (damaged from fatal leaps off walls caused my Toby), A bag of spaghetti and 1 frozen streak!

 

I "DO" adore you because... Every morning I wake up and find a different toy, teddy or new found treasure found from the night before. Nicely placed at the foot of my bedroom door as a gift from you.

 

I ADORE you because... When I ask you if you were a Good-Boy. You look-up at me and softly assure me with a gentil meow. And proceed to affectionally head-bump my legs to reassure me.

 

And because.... Everytime I leave you, you run to the window and watch and wait for me to come home. And when I do... Your the first to greet me at the door, with a cuddle and a frantic scratching on my feet, as to say... "You will always be mine"!

 

And finally... I LOVE you because at night without a whisper of a wind. Or an once of a sound... You slither under the blankets and snuggle up to my body for warmth. And lovingly purr yourself to sleep in complete contentment!

 

Your my little buddy Toby and I love and adore you!! (even when your a pain in my back-side!! Silly cat :-)

Thank-you to anyone who managed to read all this, I realise it's a little long. I wrote this simply because tomorrow's his birthday and I was feeling sentimental. I'll post his official b-day picture tomorrow...till then)
