Jumper, thanks for almost 19 years of constant kitty cuddles and always greeting me at the door (and for putting #LiloAndStitchTheTorties in their place when they needed it!). I’ll miss you, but now you’re with your sister, Midnight, in kitty heaven. 💜🐾
It’s #libraryshelfieday! Love my bookshelf and my kitties. 💜 #LiloAndStitchTheTorties #books #bookstagram #bookshelf #adoptdontshop #catmom #catsnotkids
