The Cats Behind Whisker Acres

First in a series highlighting the cats behind Whisker Acres.


Name: Jefferson
DOB: May 1, 2001
Weight: 20+ lbs.
Eyes: Green
Diet: 'See' Food diet. He eats all he sees included but not limited to...
milk left at the bottom of the cereal bowl,
100-calorie pack of Oreos and
Cheerios.
Hobbies: Taking short walks to the litter box, food dish and the bed,
sitting on tall furniture and looking down on his lowly subjects
(mainly the dog but at times the whole family),
watching birds out the windows and living dangerously by
venturing into the dog's domain.
Relationship status: Currently in a platonic relationship with his eye candy, Pug.
She is the girl of his dreams and sometimes nightmares!

Greetings from the short side. Boy, you really do blink and time zooms on by. Saw this video on you tube called Original Elephant Painting. How can anyone see this and think that animals are dumb or lack feeling.We live on an amazing earth. Thank you, God.

Also, on you tube is a totally awesome video called African Thunderstorm (unsure of exact name but is a music group from Slovenia). I like the first part especially but it is all good.

Well, the kids are back from camp. They have a good but slightly exhausting time. Thank you to the staff and everyone that helps make summer church camp a possibility. If we plant the seed early, then the roots have a chance to grow strong.

In Christ.

Farewell to thee my fine feathered friend

Farewell to thee my fine feathered friend

Our relationship has come to an end

Bird seed left uneaten

How short was our meetin'

Where you've gone, we do not know

Perhaps you've met your true love named Flo

And she whisked you off to Greece

We wish you love, joy and peace.

(Okay, Okay. I hear you...Please stop with the poems. They are horrible. The are even deplorable...:)

Ode to a peacock

Lo and behold! What my wondering eyes do see

but a peacock sitting by my house in a tree.

All elegant, poised and in control...

Why don't we call gas petrol?

Looking here, there and everywhere,

His feathers flutter in the air.

With a cry of help, he struts around,

calmly pacing on the ground.

An exotic name we wanted for him,

not very foriegn was the name Jim.

His name we shall call Salim.

He shall be captain of our team.

With 30 cats to wait upon him,

hopefully he will stay on that limb.

And if ever his guard he let down,

we will have the prettiest feather arrangement in town.
