Laugh. Learn. Love cats.
Newton: Someone got me a box for International Box Day. How thoughtful!
Newton: The roof is a little low, but it’s a very nice box.
Ashton: Nice box, Newton. But it really doesn’t look like you’re going to fit in there.
Newton: Are you calling me too fat for my box? Of course I’ll fit.
Newton: See?
Ashton: I see the box moving across the floor.
Newton: Just give me a minute. I may have to wiggle a little bit.
Ashton: * sigh * Okay, I’m waiting.
Ashton: How long do you think this will take him?
Newton: Ashton left her chicken leg here, and now it’s all mine!
Newton: It’s not even all soggy with drool. She must not appreciate it.
Newton: It’s more fun to play with when it doesn’t have someone else’s drool.
Newton: Now I have drooled on it and everyone will be able to tell that it’s mine.
Ashton: Hey, Newt, have you seen my chicken leg? I left it around here somewhere.
Newton: Umm…. no. I haven’t. What did it look like?
Ashton: You know, like a chicken leg.
Newton: Oh, okay. I’ll watch for it.
Ashton: Will you let me know if you see my chicken leg toy?
Miss Ellen at 15andMeowing15andMeowing kindly sent Ashton some handmade toys after her dentalwork. Big thanks for the thoughtful gift! It took Ashton a while to feel up to playing with them, but now that she is, she has to share them with Newton. Newton thinks all the toys in the house — and maybe all of the toys in the world — belong to him.
Hey, do you recognize the cat on that book cover? It’s Ashton!
Ashton’s story of what happened to a lost kitten afraid of humans is now featured in the anthology, Rescued, Volume 2: The Healing Stories of 12 Cats, Through Their Eyes.
All of the stories in the anthology are told from the cat’s point of view, and each one has its unique take on the way that cats help humans heal.

Ashton: I did this all last week, waiting for the head peep to get home. Waiting. All. Week. The manpeep fed me and scritched me, but it’s not the same.
Ashton: But she’s back! And she smells like OTHER CATS!
Ashton: She says she will have stories from her trip to see friends and those other cats, too, later this week once she has rested from the long drive. Do you think I should forgive her about the other cats thing?
