Description
On the way out..as are we all. But not today. We hope for several more years.
This is Casey, an old adopted Maine Coon who has slept next to my chest for almost 15 years. Now, she comes to the chair next to the computer desk and holds up her front legs..so I reach down and help her jump up.
The pics I took tonight on spur of the moment show her on the wooden pullout of this 60 year old desk, in front of the pc. She posed and yawned. She will sleep with me again tonight. I suppose we all get older.
I did this for me, not for gallery quality of image..for me and for Casey. She has watched me edit most all images in this gallery.

Beautiful, it makes me sad to think of losing a kitty. I have one that I am particularly attached to and can't stand the thought of her not being here. I hope your kitty stays healthy for you.

What a nice thing to do... a way to remember the good times...Maine Coon cats are really nice cats as I have one named Cessna and she is my companion now that I lost my husband going on 9 months now....Funny how they become part of the family....I had one live to be 17 1/2 yrs old and one 15 and I miss them dearly...Memories are all I have now that my husband has passed also...I love all cat pictures....Thanks for sharing Casey
