Sad words on Wednesday - Skeezix has gone to the Bridge

It's with sad hearts and leaky eyes that we say goodbye to one of the very first bloggers we ever knew - SKEEZIX



 Skeezix had such a huge influence on the Cat Blogosphere.  He had a great sense of fashion (especially PINK) and introduced us to the word Kyoot and the man with the bloo shorts.  Skeezix was in the Spelling Bee and helped keep us safe from Vishus Deer. He even  taught us how to make a flat cat!  We loved his adventures with the Food Lady and the quality time he spent with Mr. Tasty Face.  His long romance with Daisy is legendary.

Our hearts are sad and our eyes are leaky.  RIP Skeezix, we will miss you.  We'll think of you whenever we see something pink!  Please stop by Skeezix's blog and and leave a comment....we know The Food Lady and Mr Tasty Face will appreciate it.

Yes, Skeezix left us way too soon but with his flamboyant style, I'll bet he's having a lot of fun with Pepi Smart Dog OTRB.

We didn't realize all of the traditions of the CB that Skeezix started. He'll really be missed.
