Did you know that coloring is a good way to relieve stress?
While looking at all the Grumpy Cat merchandise and giggling at how funny she is, it reminded me of Jewel.
Before Jewel came to live with us, she was quite a grumpy kitty herself. She really did not like affection, and if you tried to give her a kiss on the head, she'd give you a whap with her claws!
Jewel was also very vocal at the vet. So much so, that one of the vet techs nicknamed her "Miss Crankypants."
Once, when she was getting her blood pressure checked, she was talking so much that she riled up all the little kittens who had just been spayed or neutered.
Jewel sure had a lot of personality and made her feelings and demands known! I loved that about her very much.
Jewel was obviously a jewel. So glad you have such memories of her.
ReplyDeleteWe agree with Jan, a Jewel that made us smile too.
ReplyDeleteMy human misses Sparkle's rather grouchy personality sometimes, because I am quite the opposite!
ReplyDeleteWe sure did love learning about her nickname! Heee!
ReplyDeleteShe sounds amazin'. Mommy calls me chatty caffy. And sis Lexi keeps hers ears covered a lot. MOL
ReplyDeleteLuv ya'
Dezi and Lexi

ReplyDeleteThat is so funny that she riled up the little kittens. Angel Tara was the same way at the vet whenever she had to be taken to another room or left there. As long as I was with her she was a perfect angel. I love reading your memories of your special angel {{{hugs}}}
ReplyDeleteOh taht made me smile. What a character she was!
ReplyDeleteMiss Crankypants! That's funny. Thanks for sharing more about Jewel.
ReplyDeleteAnd we didn't know that about coloring. The mom may go buy a coloring book or two. :)
Jewel sure had a lot of purrsonality! All her own!
ReplyDeleteOur mom doesn't get to do it too often, but she loves to color. She has a Kliban Cat coloring book that her aunt gave her. It is her favorite. We have read in a later post that you got your coloring book from a kind reader. Enjoy and think of Jewel as you color.
