Such a nice ode to the old crazy cat. She was always very tempting to cuddle with, but you certainly couldn't try and force her into it...if you did you got one of those warning growls that pretty much put the fear of God into any man. I think she may have been the craziest cat I ever met, but like any good bi-polar being, she was as sweet some times as she was mean at others. Take care Boo.
Boo had big heart and sharp claws. She used those claws numerous times to attack me. Numerous times I deserved it. The first time I heard her quietly purring in the night it frightened me terribly. Really really terribly. I like to believe she was just checking to make sure I was okay.
Sorry to hear about Boo. She was to me, the crazy cat lady on the Simpsons and we were the cats. For all the annoyances, most of which I laughed at, Boo was a great hunter and I respect that. Her little surprises and her presence will be missed.
Very sorry to hear about Boo, I know what it is like to loose a family cat as we lost both of ours in the last year. Although I did not know Boo in her later years, she sure was a cute interesting cat back in the day. RIP boo!
