Maggy arrived to us first, born November 2003, and adopted to our home in January 2005.
She is a pure bred tortie point, weighing in
about seven pounds then,
and still (most of which is fur).
She has beautiful markings,
with a "white star" on her forehead, brilliant blue eyes,
gold/red furs behind her ears and on her paws.
Never (or very rarely) a lap cat, only
wanting affection on her own terms...
the Siamese in her genealogy
comes forth, loud and clear, when she wants something,
as she is
definitely a talker. She's gracious, elegant, independent ...
her full
given name is Mary Margaret, but she's often called Mags,
the Magster,
Magoo or MagMag.
I always thought the song lyrics most appropriate for Mag were, "She's A
Lady".
It is a year ago this month that Maggy and I said our good-byes, and so I have
chosen to celebrate the "Month of Maggy". For those not familiar with the Zoolatry
blog, or the Zoolatry girls ~ a little more of that story will be told over the next day or two,
and then we're just going to put paws-up and enjoy a wonderful collection of Maggy
photographs and memories, old and new.
Thankful for Maggy!

Hi there Maggie, this will be great fun to hear all about you and your adventures in life. Take good care.
ReplyDeleteWe didn't know anything about your early days with her, or that you didn't have her as a kitten, so this is so interesting to learn!
ReplyDeleteGood Meowning beautiful Maggie. Tortie Point? Ahhhh, them's the best points to have unless there were only such a thing as Tuxie Points. Heeeee.
ReplyDeleteAwwww She's a beauty, and a tiny one at 7 pounds of moslty fluff! My star is (or was, and will gain it back soon) 6 pounds, so I can imagine the size of your sweetheart!
ReplyDeleteMaggy May is one of Mum's favourite songs sung by Rod Stewart. We are looking forward to seeing more of your Maggy Mae this month.

ReplyDeleteOh yes, she's a lady for sure. And she has a lot in common with Phantom, who also only wants affection or attention on his terms. But still totally lovable:) We are excited for the Month of Maggy.

I don't know the Zoolatry girls, so look forward to this. Maggy is a pretty girl, too.
ReplyDeleteSweet Maggie! What a nice way to celebrate her, in the month of May!
