Kizmet is using my head as a pillow. He lives for these happy moments and so do I.<\/p><\/div>\n

Kizmet is an “I’m happy if I can be sleeping on my beloved human’s head,” kind of cat. Politics is not his thing to pontificate, nor as his human, is it mine. However, with today the 4th of July, 248 years since the adoption of the Declaration of Independence in 1776, it’s hard not to think of politics as America ponders its future.\u00a0 Today is also Kizmet’s 12th birthday and the only wish he has, is the same one I have: regardless of where you stand, or what your beliefs are, we hope we can come together as a race, with compassion, empathy, tolerance, and fairness.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>

Happy 12th Birthday, Kizmet!<\/p><\/div>\n

Take care everyone, and be safe. And don’t forget,\u00a0 the 4th of July can be a rough, scary, and dangerous time for our feline friends. Please visit here<\/a> for my previous post on how to keep our cats safe and secure during the 4th of July festivities and the hot, summer days.<\/p>\n

Kizmet from November, 2012. This was a few days after we adopted him from Pet Supermarket (he had been found, abandoned on the side of the road as a kitten).<\/p><\/div>\n
