HAPPY 9TH BIRTHDAY TO MADI

HAPPY 9TH BIRTHDAY TO OUR PRECIOUS 
MADI
In honor of my birthday, Mom donated a scarf she crocheted to Paws for Peace Auction.
Thanks Mom!!!

THIS IS ONE OF MY FAVORITE PICTURES OF MADI IN 2011

 I found this poem in Chicken Soup for the Soul: Lovin' Our cats.  It describes Madi purrfectly.
It was written for a male cat. I changed it to fit the Diva.

Under her Spell
by
Tami Sandlin

I can feel her watching me

Through golden eyes, unblinking

And I can't help but wonder

Just what it is she is thinking.

I know her habits, I know her ways

But her moods are hard to tell

The only thing I know for sure is

She knows I'm under her spell

For eating she has claimed my nicest dish

To nap, my favorite chair

And anytime I want to sit,

She is comfortably resting there.

For play, she's got expensive toys

To chase and romp and caper

But still she is only happy with

A balled-up piece of paper!

She is always begging for attention

To be scratched beneath her chin

And when my writing takes me away from her

She steals my writing pen!

Despite our unique relationship

People ask "Just who owns who?"

It's really nice to have someone

To look forward to come home to.

And so, I stay enchanted with

This crazy pet of mine

For nothing keeps you spellbound

Like a furry finicky feline.

Madi thank you for making the last 9 years an adventure

We love you Mom and Dad
