Notes from a parish cat and his author Julie Mackenzie

My photo
I am Father Tom Fish, esteemed member of the religious team at Temptation of Christ Parish in the novels by author Julie Mackenzie. As to my background, I was invited into the rectory as a stray, laid on the charm, and was invited to stay, even honorarily ordained and no less spiritual than my sidekick Father Will. He dotes on me to high heaven and forgives all of my street cat proclivities, whatever the hell that means.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING


On this special day, we are thankful for all of the things we have. This is a day we count our blessings and are very grateful for the people who have come into our lives.

To our friends, we hope this day begins a season of gladness and treasuring the memories of those who gave us smiles in times we shared.

Speaking of happy happies, lookee here! ( ::very puffed up and proud:: )





We see Mitty!! Isn't this something?  Gracie, you did Mittens and the rest of the tabby crew proud! We know how hard it is to get everyone together, keep us all still in such close quarters, but you did it! hehe

Although Julie can be very forgetful at times, we didn't want the weeks to get away from us before we thanked Katie Isabella (Seven Things About Me) for our award. I would share stuff, but there really is nothing new to add regarding me or any of my kitty family members since we just did a Gotcha post a short while ago.

Oh, wait a minute--as a parish priest in my other life, I want to make sure you all know that I now have a confessional schedule (see sidebar). There's nothing I haven't heard. Remember, I am a former street cat.

Have a wonderful THANKSGIVING! To all of you and our furriends in Canada, UK and other countries, we thank you for your friendship, good will and supportive purrs and woofs in our times of need.

We're heading straight for lights and angel season which we love!




Hugs,

Tom, Julie, Mitty, Tinker and Anastasia
