Dec.22 was the 5th anniversary of the loss of "Fission". She was the best cat anyone could ever hope to live with. Smart, well behaved, affectionate, and sexy as a cat could ever be (I often looked at her waving that beautiful tail at me and thought "Damn, I wish I could be a cat for a day"). Strange...it seems like we lost her just yesterday, and yet it also seems like a lifetime ago. Even stranger....That evening something spooked the hell out of "TK". He suddenly got all hunched up and bushed out like he saw something in the den with my wife and me. Just staring wide eyed at something that we couldn't see but was certainly upsetting him. We've never seen him act like that, before. I looked at my wife and asked "what the hell's got him so spooked". "Maybe Fission's visiting us.....Hi Fiz", my wife said. Then I found myself looking at the spot TK was staring at and saying "We miss you, Sweetheart". Whatever TK saw seemed to move to my feet....to my wife's feet.....and then towards TK who was hunched up in the hallway where he nervously backed up, still hunched up and wide eyed. His eyes followed something into the livingroom (Left turn from the hallway) where he stared for a couple more minutes. Then he nervously walked into the den to join us and settled in on his favorite chair. I've never believed in that supernatural, ghost, sh.t before....but now....I'm not so sure. I feel a little silly posting this, but I can't explain what happened.

Purrs for Fission, you and your wife.
Hugs,

I remember other posts you made about Fission, and I remember thinking that you conveyed quite well the flirty charms of what I call girlycats. :) They flirt with men, they really do. My girlycats give the men in my life a totally different look than they give me, and their body language is different too. It says, "ooo, he smells like a BOY I *like* boys, come here big fella."
P.S.--this is the place you come to when you might feel silly elsewhere talking about your cats. We are all of us stupid over these wonderful creatures.
PPSS--Once love is created it never goes away, not even when the flesh does. Bet you knew that.

It says, "ooo, he smells > like a BOY I *like* boys, come here big fella." Our Odessa, normally a shy and elusive girl, is brazen around men, the little hussy. Fission reminds me of her, from the description. Around my husband or any of our guy friends, she does that little sex-kitten strut with her tail high up in the air, and I swear she swings her little butt like a teenager in tight designer jeans. I'm reminded of a Tom & Jerry cartoon where Tom's trying to get on an ocean liner to score some Jerry for lunch, and is sidetracked by this delectable fluffy white Persian with a come-hither look in her eyes, who walks the same way, that Mae West strut. Our Stosh, on the other hand, is a ladies' man and is all over anyone in a skirt. I'm convinced that they can tell the genders apart somehow. Maybe they smell hormones?

> PPSS--Once love is created it never goes away, not > even when the flesh does. Bet you knew that. When we put our Fritzie to sleep two years ago, my husband said he saw the animals of my childhood who were long gone, and he had never seen them. Yet he described them in such detail you'd have thought we'd been neighbors from the cradle. We've never experienced visits from Fritzie, but we think he tells things to our four feline masters. "Stosh, I used to swing on Mama's hair when I was a kid. Try it; it's loads of fun." "Odessa, they miss seeing a black cat by my old heater. Go ahead, you can use it. You'll be nice and cozy and Mama and Daddy will feel better about me being gone with another black cat there." "Brandy, if you wan't Mama's attention rustle some plastic shopping bags. It drives her BATS!" "Be assertive, Roxie; don't let Mama put away the clothing, so you can sleep in it like I used to." And they listen. I think that, when Fritzie "retired," he got bored so the Big Boss gave him the job of Foreman to our four. We will always love and miss him, but I've learned that the best way to honor him is to give our love to his kindred.
Blessed be Baha

That's a great analogy! Fission's flirting was just like that except she would only do it for me. I was her guy. And any girl, except my wife, that looked like she was getting too friendly with me would get a cautionary growl from Fiz. I really miss that cat.

Don't feel silly. I swear my cat Dash, who had gone on to the Bridge several months before, was with me when I was coming out of anesthesia. I know I was in a hazy state, but she was laying on me, purring like she would do when I wasn't feeling well. It was so real.
