Kit Kat

Dear Diary,

I stopped to visit my friend Martha and I just had to take a photograph of her 15-year-old cat, Kit Kat.  Seriously, Kit Kat is the largest cat I've ever seen!  She completely filled her cat bed!  Over the years, they have tried to get Kit Kat to lose weight but to no avail.  Emerson could use a couple of Kit Kat's pounds although I think he is gaining a bit of weight.  I will take him to the vets for a weigh-in in January. 

We had a cat named "Fat Cat" years ago, I've added an extra photo of me and the grumpy old guy.  Still, he was a far cry from Kit Kat's size.  I have adored animals all my life, both the grumpy and the sweet, and I am so pleased that my grandniece will become a vet in May.  The love of animals sort of runs in our family.

It was a perfectly beautiful day yesterday, bright blue skies and temperature in the 40's.  The sun on Martha's front porch was heavenly.  It doesn't get much better than this in December in Maine and the good weather looks to continue through the weekend.  It hardly seems like Christmas is just a couple of weeks away.
