Boots – Ancient One-Eyed Wonder Cat.
Catcher of chipmunks.
Stands up while he drinks.
Murderer of TV sets.
Steals meat from dogs.
Dances for cheese.
Stinks like feet.
He bites if you don’t pet him.
He bites if you do pet him.
He yells for his dinner.
Likes his nails long.
He drools.
Rubs his head in cat food.
Feared by mice for miles around.
Cuddles only if you sit in his chair.
Loves fresh laundry.
Spent a weekend with a family of groundhogs.
Envied by canines.
Trips the most nimble humans.
Dislikes New Jersey.
Pees on your clothes if you’re messy.
Keeps his chin wet.
Once you get to know him he’s a sweetheart.
Legend.

As someone who has two less cats, than a few years ago, so sorry to hear Boots the Cat died. Also, clearly Boots had a cute little face and lots of personality. I have no doubt he shall be missed, and has been loving welcomed by Bastet, Mother of All Cats, where he is receiving lots of cat cuddles, treats and naps on freshly laundered clothes and linens.
