Today we're allowing mama to flashback to the 1970's and our Angel Sookie.
Here's a bit about Sookie. One day mama heard a kitty meowing at the front door. Soon there was a noise at the door, so mama went to investigate....and there sat Sookie looking up.....she meowed to mama and mama talked to her. Mama figured she belonged to someone in our neighborhood, so walked away after a bit.
To make a long story short, Sookie was determined to live with mama....when bumping against the door didn't get it to open, she started climbing up the screen door and meowing. She hung at the top of the screen door and meowed until mama opened the door and lovingly took her off the screen and into the house. There was no doubt that she had picked mama!!!
Sookie was totally at home from the start...she loved the whole family and was the best lapcat mama ever had. Our G-Ma named her after a kitty she had had when she was a young girl. Mama and the family had a love affair with Sookie for over 20 years!!!!!
The pictures aren't very good as they were taken "way back when" cameras weren't as good as they are today. :)
Sammy loves the fact that Sookie was a short haired version of "Himself"!!! We both wish we could have known her.

SASS was originally started by Mama/JudiBug with two senior Texas dudes (Sammy and Andy) and later added two young sisfurs (Shelly and Sierra). Sammy ran off to the Bridge in May of 2012 and Andy April 2013. Our dear, sweet Mama/JudiBug passed in November of 2012, after a short battle with Pancreatic Cancer. TraciBug is now attempting to keep the blog going. Polli and Boston were added to the family in the summer of 2013.

Well you see, Sammy and Andy, Sookie saw the flashing neon sign in the middle of Mama's forehead (visible only to kittehs that need a home) that said "Softie here-just act cute and don't give up."

Angel Sookie sure was a beautiful girl, and it sounds like she was a real sweetheart. We wish we could've known her, too! Thanks for sharing. :)
Sookie was a gorgeous girl with beautiful eyes and a tender, sweet face...She definitely belonged with your Mommy, it was meant to be and Sookie was so smart to know that!...What a sweetheart she was; still beloved and cherished, as she should be!...xo...Calle, Halle, Sukki
It's great to remember the cats who came before. Angel Sookie was quite a charmer and beautiful, too. Cats just seem to know which human is right for them.
The pictures are so nostalgic ;)
*We love them all*
A climber! And sweet looking! A perfect combination.
And good luck with your fight against Snafu, Andy. Of course we voted for you, you are our honorary brother.
