Happy Birthday, Popokilani (heavensent kitties)

the birthday Kids Makoa and KaNani as mature five year olds

In the scramble of our lives and with my writing for 9-11, then my Mother's passing I almost forgot the most important post of the year...

The Kitty's Birthday Post!!!

Our Babies are now robust adults that are growing and changing as they adapt to our new enviroment. As we are making friends and having them in our home Mak and Nani are more and more curious of outsiders comming out to smell them, and accept pets from them, spreading their own "aloha"...

We have seen a clear change in that they are loving towords me but bonded at the hip to Woody these days. He has clearly spent more time with them since our arrival and is the go to guy for eats treats and litter box cleaning. I just brush their lovely fur out and say "I love you dear sweet little night time pests!"... Seriously When I was recovering from eye surgery this spring, or even when I am at home for a day off they are right there with me the dearest little friends we could have.

I remarked in my last post how vivdly I remember meeting them for the first time eight weeks old, orange ribbons around their necks. We were there at the Hilo Farmer's Market to see Nani, as we were wanting just a girl cat, but Makoa was not to be ignored and protested loudly that he needed a home and loving too. I am so glad we took them both. Clearly two cats are better than one.

So Happy happy my Hawaiian kitties, your aloha touches me every day and makes me smile...


Share the love!
