Star Kitty

June 2009-Sept 2010

Our little kitty princess has been taken from us;

Taken from us in the prime of life

At church (of all places!)

She only had semi-raggedy fur,

And there was no more stuffing in her tail

Because some little girl liked to have her

Swing and Twirl.

Star Kitty occupied an honored position

In the Adams' household;

That of best friend, companion, and comforter

Playmate, snuggler, and projectile.

The paint from the star on her paw was quite faded

from being rubbed on tired eyes and lips.

She is survived by her best friend Evelyn,

and her co-kitty Tabby.

"Both of us are sad!"

Remarks little Evelyn.

Michael has been shopping all day for a replacement Star Kitty. Of course all the stores just sold their last one. I knew we should have bought a backup long ago! But we are determined to replace her, because there is only so much of Evelyn moping around and discarding all her other toys in disgust that I can take.

Our last experience with Star Kitty, recorded right before church on that fateful day:

Star Kitty Opera

Starring Michael Adams as the Prince

Star Kitty as the Princess

Jane Evelyn Adams as the Dragon

This was a game Daddy and Evelyn were playing all morning before church. It was so cute I finally had to record it. Evelyn was camera shy though, screaming "MINE!" instead of singing back to Daddy like she did before. ("You cannot have my Star Kitty, She is mine! No!" "Yes!" "no!" "Yeeeesssss!" "Noooooooooo!: etc.) Michael even had to kiss the sleeping princess kitty to wake her up and find the right princess that fit the ring ("Does the ring fit on the puppy? no...Does it fit on the doornob? Nope, can't marry the doorknob. Does it fit on daddy's toe? No...". Then Evelyn would turn Daddy into a monster by spanking him and he'd sing "I'm going to eat the Star Kitty! And grind her bones!" Then Evelyn or Mommy would kiss Daddy and turn him into a prince again.
