But if you happened to end up here, then you will want to go back to the beginning at Barbara’s http://barbarab3.blogspot.com/ and hop along with us as you don’t want to miss any of the meowy purrfectly frisky projects. The hop will run for two days, October 28, 2011 and October 29, 2011. So please be sure to check back each day to see what new project each of our talented ladies has in store for you.

For my project I made a scrapbook layout of my cat Key Key.  Key Key was a stray and one night, after getting into my garbage, I went out to look for him.  He had run under my parked car and when I called to him, he came to me purring so loud!!  He let me scoop him up and love him.  He and I knew right then and there that he had found his forever home.  I found out months later, that someone had just dropped off a litter of cats on the side of the road, I saw many of his brothers and sisters in town.  I was given a loving gift that night, he became a part of my family like no other animal I had ever had.  This cat...would ride in the car with me without being in a carrier.  He would hop in the back window and watch the world go by and then come up and sleep in my lap while I was driving.  You should have seen the looks on people's faces when I drove by.  I would chuckle every time.  Key Key would see me coming down the driveway and lay down in front of my car, just so I would stop, pick him up, and drive him the final 10 feet to park my car.  Sadly...I only had him 7 short years. He got really sick and we had to put him down.  I made a card out of the picture of him and inside I wrote down all the things I loved and will miss about him.  The card on the bottom is from the vets office.
He will always have a special place in my heart.
