Purrs 4 Peace Week 21-Thank You

This week special thanks go to purrs4peace supporter Lois Lavrisa in Savannah, GA. You can see from the photo that Lois is very beautiful on the outside but I can tell you that she is even more beautiful on the inside. Mummy and I have never known anyone more loving and giving than Lois. Although she is a wife and a mother to four extremely active children, and she cares for a fish, turtle, and two cats (Sissy and Boots), Lois keeps a spotless house, cooks excellent meals and works two jobs outside her home. Lois is even in the process of writing a fantastic second novel...in her not-so-spare time. Lois does more in the span of one day than most humans do in a week, but she always finds time to support and “be there” for her friends. Lois is mummy’s MBF (most beloved friend) and the thanks to Lois are especially important because without her support this week, mummy (who had a health crisis) might not be here to help me with the purrs. When we are weak with a moment of fear, a friend who will be strong for us is crucial. Thank you lovely Lois. My extra special purrs, nosebumps and kisses to you. I wish every human...and cat..had a friend as magnificent as you.



Thank you to every purrticipant. It has been impossible to keep track of everyone purrticipating from week to week. Therefore, I am including all those who have assisted with this project and will add newcomers from week to week. Thank you one and all!

You are blessed to have a super, wonderful friend in Lois. Every ooman should be so fortunate! But, she is one in a million, dat's for sure. You did a pawsome job.

Thanks to Lois for leading us again this past Sunday. Thanks to ConfuciusCat's mama for usually doing it and doing an awesome job. You are also "one in a million!"

When I read thru the list of participants, WOW. I'm speechless. That is quite a special group.

Top Pat and all the purrfect purrers-

I was honored and humbled to be thanked by such a wise and wonderful Confucius Cat and his incredible terrific "handler"- Pat Mason. I love them both- and here's to peace for all on earth:)
