&lt;p&gt;All the images in this collage are of my own Calico cat.  Her name is Cali.  She likes to be the queen here at home.  Other cat owners have told me the same about their own cats.  They have that superior attitude about themselves and want things their own way.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I crowned her and she looks adorable and regal in these pictures.  Hope you enjoy the collage and the poem.  Cali is a good companion and friend to me**.**&lt;/p&gt;</description></item><item><title>"Cali" the Calico Cat</title><link>/posts/cali-the-calico-cat/</link><pubDate>Tue, 24 Apr 2012 00:00:00 +0000</pubDate><guid>/posts/cali-the-calico-cat/</guid><description>&lt;p&gt;[caption id=&amp;ldquo;attachment_30&amp;rdquo; align=&amp;ldquo;alignleft&amp;rdquo; width=&amp;ldquo;300&amp;rdquo;]&lt;a href="https://photos.smugmug.com/Lateblooms/n-ZkfX3Q/2012/Cali-the-calico-cat/i-2WCbCcp/0/Lk7vvzz4dP5LvH8DqvxfsgtvmmjVDTrD6S6fn8xKs/D/Cali-sleeping-on-quilt-D.jpg"&gt;&lt;img loading="lazy" src="https://jeanjankisamaroo.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/04/Cali-sleeping-on-quilt-300x168.jpg" title="\\&amp;#34;Cali\\&amp;#34; the Calico Cat "&gt;&lt;/a&gt; Cali - Unconditional Love[/caption]&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&amp;ldquo;Until one has loved an animal a part of one&amp;rsquo;s soul remains unawakened.&amp;rdquo; (Anatole France)&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;             All pet owners know how these four-footed creatures can worm their way into your heart.  Four years ago, I started to have a great longing to have a pet.  I thought a puppy would be nice.  However, after much thought and deliberation, it became clear to me that walking a dog in winter might not be that easy for me.   So it was that Cali was adopted from a family who were not able to keep her anymore.&lt;/p&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
