When I was in Topeka this weekend and reading books with Kinley, she would say "Papa" every time we saw a kitten in a book. Same goes for tractors. What fun!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03030884632849692028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-746965660860204993.post-6137460609812542072013-09-16T08:07:53.990-05:002013-09-16T08:07:53.990-05:00They look nothing alike, though two of them look l...They look nothing alike, though two of them look like their parents. It's a mystery. The header was a photo I took in September of 2009. I just got two beautiful rainbow photos last night. Check 'em out! (The evening of September 15.)

Randy says that these are staying here, so any "trophy cat" for a wonderful poem will have to be a different one!Kimhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03030884632849692028noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-746965660860204993.post-60316797667714801922013-09-15T08:20:59.354-05:002013-09-15T08:20:59.354-05:00B&W, Siamese and Calico cats are my favorite! ...B&W, Siamese and Calico cats are my favorite! <br /><br />We had several B&W house cats growing up. In High School Sister acquired a Siamese from the neighbor. It was an outside cat, except when Dad was not home. She did not like Dad and made sure we all knew it.

In private Dad snickered and told me the kitten didn't just show up. The kitten wondered into the grain elevator when he was in town drinking coffee one day and he brought it home.

We see occasional flashes of Mama but she won't tolerate us. <br />Love your header.
