Happy August!
If you were to visit the FIV+ Suite this month, you would be in for a surprise. There is a new girl in town called Adelaide. She made a strong impression on several cats including Buddy, Newman, Lester and Pyewacket. Each of them received a few whacks from Adelaide. Though she is a petite calico, she is quite the force to be reckoned with.
Fortunately, things have settled down since that startling introduction. Hocus and I have given her all the space she needs. I have a good feeling that someday Addy and I will be friends and have a lot to talk about. I think that she is going to like it here at Tabby’s Place. She is already spending lots of time in the sunny solarium.
And, speaking of friends, Buddy and Sonny are spending most of their time together, enjoying each other’s company. I think that they may be in love!
I am grateful to report that my health continues to be fine. In addition to a picture of Buddy and Sonny snuggling together, I have included a picture of myself, in a deep and restful slumber. I love these lazy days!
I appreciate all that you do to make it possible. Thanks for your generous and loving support.
I leave you for now with a beautiful poem about this special month.

Mona
August rushes by like desert rainfall,
A flood of frenzied upheaval,
Expected,
But still catching me unprepared.
Like a matchflame
Bursting on the scene,
Heat and haze of crimson sunsets.
Like a dream
Of moon and dark barely recalled,
A moment,
Shadows caught in a blink.
Like a quick kiss;
One wishes for more
But it suddenly turns to leave,
Dragging summer away.
– Elizabeth Maua Taylor
