Squillion Angels

When mom was 16 her fambly gots a kitten...dey stopped at a drive in restaurant call JoDee's effury time dey went to da lake and one day der was a sign dat sed "kittens available, $15.00". Dem beans was smart, dey maded beans pay fur da kittens cuz if yoo buy it yoor more likely to take care of it den if yoo gots it fur free. Dey was also selectif of who could get da kittens. Anyway, dis kitty was named Whiskers, but mostly dey called him Kibear (pernouncded "key bare") cuz mom's little brother (our uncle Gilbert) was calling him a kitty bear, like a teddy bear, but would say "key" instead of kitty. He was all black wif a few white hairs on his chest and white whiskers. He lived to be 22 years old. Which is, like, very, very, very old in dem days. Heck, it's old fur a kitty in deze days. Mom sez he still visits in her dreams sometimes and she still misses his headbutts cuz he gave dem really hard and all da time. She sez she is gonna scan in some old pikshers of him one of deze days.

Mom says she remembers those drive in food places. We enjoyed the story on getting Whiskers. Mom is hoping I live as long as Whiskers. It's so nice to adopt the VSquillions in memory of Whiskers and Punkin. Maybe we should have done that for Gizmo. We did adopt Missy You in honor of my sweetheart Missy Blue Eyes. Hope you had a great St Patty's Day.
