Dedicated to a really dear friend: Lilia
Annissina ...
Sometimes, Life does provide good timing, as I received some sweetness from Lily, that very day before I was supposed to leave on my trip...
A wonderful hiatus amid the chaos, (the eye of the storm?
)
What joy and a truly lovely moment of "swimming in the rosewater" omg,
aaaaah... the thoughtfulness was/is truly the best part.
Lily has always been so thoughtful, and I have enjoyed so much getting to know her... I've known her nearly as long as I've been on dA- it almost feels like I've "watched her grow up!" - I've always been so proud of her, she really is just amazing!
I just want to thank Lily, with this photo of our Sha-Sha kitty, whose B-Day was Oct. 1st- turned NINE (9) !
Earlier a couple of weeks before my trip, Lily wanted to look for a photo of Sha-Sha, for something, and while I have lots, THIS is a very new one, which I decided to finish for Lily... bringing it with me in STASH on the trip to upload for her.
Lily loves Sha-Sha, as I know there are a few others who find that Sha-Sha is their favourite, having followed her story, from the time, we first got her, and I joined dA. It's difficult NOT to love a survivor like Sha-Sha.
Sha-Sha's actual name, "Seizonsha" means Survivor, and that was just the perfect name for her, considering everything she had been through as a young kitten before we adopted her, and within the first couple years thereafter when she had to have two MORE surgeries...
Anyway, aside from AND after that, she's never acted like she only has one eye, and actually has always had even better eye coordination than our other cats, and spots lights and bugs before the others.
Also, even at nine years old she still plays with all of her toys with as much fervor as when she was a kitten. A lot of our cats start to slow down with toys by the age of nine, and especially they slow down with their energy by then.
Sha-Sha rocks, just like Lily!
Lily, Thank you for everything, not just recently, though what amazing timing- oh the Universe!
... but thank you always, for so much. (When I'm back home, "and things settle", as Mel put it in the prior upload, I will get back to you as soon as I can... you know what I mean.) ~Tea ~~~~~~~~~
[ NOTE: Thank you, in advance, for any 's I may receive for this image. I am honoured and grateful that anyone would think well enough to it. So thank you from the bottom of my heart . I understand if you don't have time to comment, but thank you for any kind comments, too. It's important to know this NOW, as I may NOT be able to do individual thank-you's for 's, or in case I cannot respond to each comment, either. Thanks for understanding. And, if you just came to view, I appreciate that, too.
