1. God

2. Tibbs, a favorite cat, who passed this weekend.

3. He was a stray brought to us through Black Cat Rescue

4. The way we could tell him apart from the other cats was his clipped here, probably done when he was caught and neutered in the wild

5. Sometimes called 1/2 ear or triangle head

6. He was Cassie’s favorite, I was quite fond of him too (Ella wasn’t, he terrorized her)

7. Tony, one of our builders, liked him, called him a street fighter.  He chased birds and defended his turf.

7. He would come and greet either of us when we pulled into the driveway, yowling, or come visit us in the garden

8. And he liked cars, just getting into them, riding in them, didn’t need to put him in a carrier

9. He liked to lie on top of a car, in fact any table or flat, elevated surface

10. Cassie made me a cat calendar for Christmas and his pictures are on it this month

11. My mother said it’s hard to give your heart away but wouldn’t you rather have than not

12. Easily the most sociable of our cats, he would not hide when company came

13. And a fascination with bathrooms and running water

14. Good taste in reading material

15. Whenever he stepped on my computer he launched iTunes

16. Ave atque vale, Senor Tibbies
