My Kitties

Recently, one of my three cats, Gracie, passed away. It was a hard time for my siblings and I, and we miss her a lot. She was ten when she died, so I'm thankful that at least she lived a pretty long life. She was such a sweetheart and very loving. If she got used to a person, she would rub against their legs until you reached down to pet her. But I also have two other beautiful cats...Lulu and Maxie. Lulu definitely has a fun personality. She loves being the center of attention, and although she can be quite demading at times, she is sweet and very curious! Maxie is more quiet, but she is gentle and kind. She was always very protective of Gracie.

I want to share some pictures with you so you can meet them. =) Some of these photos are fuzzy because they weren't orginally digital photos, so I'm sorry about the quality.

Yep, that's me with the big glasses! I was about 9 here, and this was taken the very first day my family got the cats. I'm holding Lulu. I still can't believe how tiny she was here. In recent years all the cats grew....um...a bit large. =D
























This picture of Lulu makes me laugh.
Gracie when she was around 4 or 5.

Gracie and Lulu all snuggled up.

Hmm, do I detect a fight starting?



These two were always really close, despite their little catfights. =)





Lulu likes to make herself comfy.


Yep, VERY comfy.



Maxie. Doesn't she have pretty eyes?



Lulu is probably thinking "If you take just ONE more picture of me, no more Miss Nice Kitty!"



Trying to make the all-important decision of whether she should jump up on the bed or stay where she is.






















I love and miss you Gracie. <3
