This post goes out to my brother Hemingway – Hemi for short. He is a lot of things here at the Hotel Thompson.
He is my brother.
He is my friend.
He is the master cat.
He is mom/dads oldest.
I talk about him a lot here on my blog. Mostly about him using his ginormous paw to slap me on the rump – snorts. But really, today is his birthday. Today he turns the big 8 years old. Happy birthday Hemi.
And just remember Hemi, with your age – snorts –
you might want to cut back on spanking this oinker.
Just sayin’

Oh friends, did you know that mommy/daddy adopted Hemi and his brother Tybee when they were three weeks old? They barely had their eyes open and had just started walking – I guess you could say that was walking. Their little tails were like a piece of yarn – 🙂 They had gotten picked up by Animal Control and taken to the shelter. Mom and dad saved them both and brought them home. They are such softies when it comes to us four legged animals, you know 🙂

He is going to have a special dinner tonight of tuna – isn’t he spoiled? I’m hoping he will share a little bit with me and Mouse Girl. XOXO – Bacon

Happy Birthday Hemi! But watch those claws on Bacon’s bottom. Cat claws can be nasty – I know.

Thanks Easy – I’ll make sure the little booger sees this in a few. He’s taking one of his gazillion naps right now – rolls piggy eyes. I swear that cat sleeps more than I do – snorts. We had a little party for him last night. He actually got a treat of something that smelled really fishy. XOXO – Bacon

Ha! Now before this post, I always assumed Hemi had gotten his name because he had a loud purring motor! Happy birthday to Mr. Hemingway!
