My little Birthday Girl

As I was going through some paperwork today, I came across Miss Peno's adoption papers .......and discovered that today is her birthday! And not only is it her birthday... ...today she's officially a Senior Cat - seven years old!
You'd never really know it... ...except maybe for the fact that she's suddenly grown two white whiskers (all the rest are black)She loves to chase her mice, and even plays fetch......but only if the boys aren't around...
and you throw it into the kitchen.While she still won't come out for company... ... in the last few weeks she's developed a fondness for being a lap cat..... especially when I'm knitting the crackghan.She's still very skittish, but has an absolute silly streak!And loves nothing more than relaxing in a toasty sunbeam.
She's the first one in the kitchen to beg for scraps...
...but prefers her meat raw - and loves fish above all!Of the three cats, she is definitely the "good" one...
...but you still can't trust herOf course, being the only girl-cat isn't easy.So today she got to spend the day however she wanted (not that it's different from any other day)
And how did she decide to spend her momentous seventh birthday?Snuggled up with friends of course!
Happy Birthday Pretty Princess Peno!

Funny --- I have grown some white "whiskers" too. LOL And I do love to sleep in the sunbeam. I think Miss Pena and I would get along just fine.

Tell Peno seven is the new five! My cat Fern is skittish too, but she lo-o-oves my SO - keeps trying to lure him over to the couch whenever he comes to visit. She runs from me, just in case I plan to take her to the vet or clean her ears.

I love the line about how she's the "good" one but you still can't trust her.

Happy Birthday Peno!
