thankful for Theo

On days like this, I find myself so utterly thankful to have Theo in my life. His personality is so delightful and his presence brings me great joy. He has a wonderful sense of humor and loves to make me laugh. He also loves a good snuggle.


I'm not all that mobile at the moment, some sort of pinched nerve in my leg. So, I'm spending a lot of time on the couch with ice and pain killers. Meanwhile, Theo is providing me with comic relief, therapeutic snuggles and endless purrs.

It seemed crazy at the time, but rescuing Theo from the freezing cold of an Indiana winter was one of the best decisions I have ever made. Life would be very dull and boring without him.

  2. All the cats make good companions in one way or another; they all have their own distinct personalities.

  5. Who could resist that charming face? The Horde sends purrs for your quick recovery! In the meanwhile, a nap with Theo seems in order.

  6. Ooooh! Do you live in Indiana? I grew up there and the winters are so harsh!! I'm really glad you rescued Theo from the cold. He sounds like my Carmine - like a nurse cat. :) I hope your leg gets to feeling better soon. I can relate to being laid up. I re-injured my ankle (which I previously had surgery on) and see my foot surgeon again tomorrow.
