Happy Birthday to Me & Damn I Love Our Cat

Roll-your-own sushi for my birthday. Thank you to my lovely wife Yumi for the delectable feast!

And yes, Choco the Cat has officially attained the age of batshit-crazy grandma who doesn’t give a #$%* anymore about proper behaviour. : -)

We don’t have it in us to discipline the old gal in the twilight of her years.  Choco has been a wonderful addition to the family ever since we got her from the Burnaby SPCA many years ago.

She just looks hurt and confused if admonished these days, a noticeable contrast to her youth when she learned quickly.

You have to make adjustments as a beloved companion ages.

We’ve been rearranging furniture, and adding “steps” here and there so she can still get to her favorite places.

Damn I love my kitty, even when she wakes us at 5 am…
