ACOYA BEAR
as we call him...
Mister grumpy...
He will be 16 years old this year!
He's never been a people person type cat...nope
he only ever liked other animals...
It took over ten years before
i could cuddle him and he would purr...
That's because when the dog died
he went into extreme mourning.
He begged to be held
and he would howl all day throughout the house
looking for our dog...
It was very sad..
He howled so much he lost his voice for a long time.
We had two other cats as well that he got on
just fine with...
Acoya is the funniest cat ever...
his antics are hilarious
they should be in a children's book
yes ..he is that funny!
It makes up for his nasty mood swings..
Then Pilot girl came along...
He hated her...
It was a fight everyday with those two..
We moved when Pilot was three years old.
This move entailed us having to stay in
hotel rooms every night of the six day journey.
Imagine a dog with two cats that
hate her...
I was dreading the journey.
But something happened after being
on the road
for six long days...
The second night of living in our
new home I heard this LOUD thumping
noise at 3am!
I asked my husband what the heck is that
noise
...He replied it' Pilot thumping her
tail because Acoya is nuzzling her head!
I couldn't believe it!
So this is where you will find
Acoya
every
morning....
Acoya you never cease to amaze me!

Pamela,
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet story! They can be moody, hard to get along with and standoffish, but we love them all the same! Your 1st pic reminded me of our other cat, Jinx, she's also black and likes to sleep under my son's bed on top of a black suitcase and when you look under there, all you can see are her eyes. Funny but a little spooky!
Thanks for visiting me!
Rebecca
This was so moving! Loved it and I loved how you told it!
ReplyDeleteSweet pictures and captivating post Pamela!!

What a sweet story. Maybe you should become a children's writer. Poor Acoya going into mourning like that. Animals are strange and interesting creatures aren't they?
ReplyDeletePamela, such a sweet story. Aren't they cute together.
ReplyDeleteTHAT is hysterical!!! We once had a cat that hated everyone including himself! xxoo Diana
ReplyDeleteSo sweet and touching story !
ReplyDeleteI love that you did a post about your kitty. Pets are such a part of my family. We actually have a dog named Lucy that's a German Shepherd. I noticed your dog and just thought I'd let you know. They are so sweet aren't they? Love your blog. I'll be back to visit.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sweet story! In the end love conquers all! Have a happy day. x Sharon
ReplyDeleteSee? Theres never something bad that wont turn out good! You have wonderful animals, endearing story! :)
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Such a sweet post Pamela! Isn't it wonderful when our furry friends enjoy each other's company!!

What a cute story. Animals definately have their own personalities.
ReplyDeleteSuch a sweet story, Pamela. Many years ago, we adopted an adult male Golden Retriever that was mourning the loss of his back yard buddie. Bringing him to a home with a 5 & 6 year old snapped him right out of it! :) Have a good day today!

So sweet! I love the picture of Acoya in the box...all you see is his eyes! Awesome pet story. :-)
ReplyDeleteand THIS is why I love animals often more than humans.... great story!!
ReplyDeleteso sweet! We will be staying in our RV for 3 wks with our cat, dog and 2 guinea pigs...should be interesting! Luckily they all love eachother!
ReplyDeleteWhat a story, so sweet! PETS...they are so complex, simple and perplexing all at the same time! LOVE them so much and yours are adorable!
ReplyDeletethat was a really cute story Pam. So funny that your kitty loves pets best, and how sad that Acoya howled when the dog died. The poor cat!
ReplyDeleteThanks for dropping by!...Anglea from LALA land says she had a turquoise swag lamp!...so fun!
ReplyDeleteAwwww! That is so sweet! I am amazed that they finally not only got along, but are best buddies, too! And isn't that amazing/sad about Acoya in mourning? I am not at all surprised. To think that some (dumb) people think that animals don't have feelings:)!
ReplyDeleteYour Acoya sounds like a very interesting cat to know. I love cats, I am more of a cat person than a dog person. I love her black coat, she is very beautiful.
ReplyDeleteHugs, Cindy
My dogs and one of my cats have a very close relationship. I worry about what the cat will do when her dogs are gone-she's very dependent on them. Adorable story.
ReplyDeleteAnn-Marie
What a sweet story. I'm glad Pilot and Acoya are lovey-dovey now. I would say my cat and dog are indifferent, at best, to each other. At least they don't fight.
ReplyDeleteOh your kitty looks like my Meeps. All black with a tuft of white on her chest. Adorable!
ReplyDeleteThat is so amazing! Animals never cease to amaze me with their personalities and temperaments! Our 2 little shihzus are exact opposites of each other...and they are so funny. The picture of your dog and cat together is so sweet! Angie xo
