WHO is THIS?!?

When my Mommeh came home from her vacation in Wyoming, she brought home a few old photos.  And LOOK what I found...
Besides the crazy 80s hairdo and cat sweatshirt, what do you see? Another CAT! This kitty was a chocolate point Siamese cat named Haiku that she loved with all her heart.  Sadly, Haiku had to go to the Bridge when she was only 4 years old on account of a problem with her kidneys. 
Mommeh, I hardly recognize you!

    It´s fun to watch old photos and laugh about hairdo and clothes your human used to wear :)

    That photo made my human sad because she does not have any photos of herself with the Cat Before Me. She has photos of her, and photos of herself, but none together.

    Daisy, don't worry about that kitty.
    Your Mom needed a kitty to hold way before you were born :)
    Even our Mom had some silly pictures from the 80's including what she calls "big hair" :o Sounds scary to us :/

    Aww it is funny that your mommy looks younger now than she did then. What a sweet kitty, and we are glad that they got four precious years together.

    Daisy, it is a wonderful thing that our humans love many of us during their long lives. We come and go so quickly, Haiku far too young, and they are always ready to open their hearts again and love just as strong. That is a beautiful thing!

    Purrs,

    Ha!!! Daisy, are you a wee bit jealous, perhaps?
    I heard on FB you weren't feeling well - I'm hoping this morning finds you healthy and well.

    (Sorry about Haiku - what a beauty.)

    Daisy, my Mom says your Mom's hairstyle was totally mild for the 80s and she looks very purity. What a sad thing Haiku had to go to the Bridge so young.

    It is sad that Haiku had to go to the Bridge so young. She looked like a sweet kitty.
    We have seen some old photos of our mum too and nearly didn't recognise her either.

    WE are with you Daisy, we hardly recognized Mommeh. It is so hard to lose a kitty when they are that young. Our Mommeh lost a doggie when she was only four from kidney failure.

    That's a nice memory for your mommeh, Daisy. Thanks for showing us Haiku. It's too bad she went to the Bridge at such a young age.

    Hey, that 80's hair is nuthin' in comparison to some! We laugh, but 80's music is cool now! And so are the fashions. We knew what we were doing back then!

    I'm glad we have photos to remember our old friends. It's bittersweet though.

    Your mom's hair is a LOT smaller than SOME hair my MomKatt remembers from the '80s! She looks great!

    And little Haiku is adorable ... I'm very sorry that your meowmy lost her so young. We have 2 Meezers in our family, too ...

    Purrs!

    Awww, we'd reconize that sweet smile anywhere! Before her first kitty went to the bridge, she had a friend take some photos of them together and she treasures those. We have to thank TWCB for making our catmom's cat lovers in the first place, right!

    I had a chocolate point. Sheba lived to be 19 before her kidney problems. I still miss her every day. Not many of the old "apple head" chocolate points available anymore
