Since Zoey gave birth to her four kittens on February 12, 2009 (apart from Zeuss, who went on to his forever home with a family friend in Boston), they have been bonded to her like glue. There is rarely a time she is not surrounded by one, two, or all of them.

Happy 15th birthday to Mia, Peanut, Rolz, and Zeuss!

It’s the “kittens” 15th birthday! That’s a biggie! I’m happy and excited for them, but it’s also a bittersweet happiness, as this darn clock of life keeps moving ahead, seemingly at a quicker pace the older I get. I want it to slow down so I can spend more time with them, not less! Fifteen years ago, but it almost seems like yesterday… I will never forget the day they were born. Before that, Dan and I were on pins and needles, waiting for their birth. We could hardly wait to “meet” our newest feline house members and we doted (some might say, obsessively so) on Mama Zoey day and night in anticipation of their arrival. Read more

Meowy Cat-Mas from the whole Zee/Zoey gang!

From all of us at Zee & Zoey’s Cat Chronicles, we wish you the happiest of holidays and wishes for a beautiful, safe, and kind New Year. We also want to take the time to remember all the precious angels who are not with us for the holidays but are forever in our hearts. We miss every one of them every day, but the holidays can be especially difficult without them. For anyone who has lost a pet, our hearts go out to you with love and compassion.

Miss my precious angels so very much.

Take care, everyone.

Love from Deb, Dan, Zoey, Mia, Peanut, Rolz, Kizmet, Jazmine, Shadow, and angels Zee, Mr. Jazz and Harley.

Jazmine and her slice of sunshine.

The other day, Jazmine scratched at the floor and did her circle-around thing before she quietly settled. She had found the last sliver of sunlight before the day would soon set to nightfall and basked in its delicious warmth. I love her attitude. Finding joy in the smallest moments of life. A cup is half full, not half empty, kind of cat. We can learn lessons from our cats – they teach us every day, and this is one lesson I try my best to live by as well.

Happy Sunday and warm purrs to you all.

Our lovely model, Jazmine.

Things have been a bit hectic and stressful here at Zee & Zoey’s Cat Chronicles. My mom fell a couple of weeks ago and was admitted to the hospital for hip replacement surgery (the surgery went well, thank God). While there, she contracted Covid and was completely isolated from her friends and family, so as you can imagine, with her being 80 years old, I’ve been preoccupied. Thankfully, we got the best gift ever – she finally tested negative and is home for Christmas. I will be spending time with her and my precious family during the day, counting my blessings.

I had wanted to do a post featuring all the feline gang – Zoey, Mia, Peanut, Rolz, Kizmet, Jazmine, and Shadow, but I just didn’t have time this year. But suffice it to say, we love you all and thank you for your support and friendship throughout the year.

It’s a Blog Hop!
