Grannymar,
It was a good try, but I wil back off and let Uncle Snooks rest in peace on some heavenly cloud. LOL Given any opportunity I can let my imagination run wild so thanks for reining me back in.

You are right about cats being all over. Before I had cats, I was astounded the first time I saw a friend’s cat leap up to the table while we cleaning up after dinner.

Then as my kids were growing up, we had many cats of our own and I learned to yell, “Get that cat off the table’” almost as easily as breathing in and out.

Maria - The very thought of that dear old man ‘Uncle Snooks’ being reincarnated as a cat is abhorrent to me. He would never push his way in like the cat does. This cat climbs all over the furniture, the kitchen surfaces and indeed is allowed into any bed in the house! Nah! Maria, you will not win me over on this one.

Grannymar,
If a cat knows you would rather be left alone, it will immediately target you to bother will all its attention. Now since we are on the subject of Paranormal, let us just imagine the possibilities that Uncle Snooks reincarnated into this marvelous, but pain in the cabootie, animal or maybe he just sent Snooks to the family from some outer realms - just as a reminder of a beloved gentleman . Oh imagining is so darn much fun.

Maria - First off Snooks is not my cat. You may have gathered I do not like cats, perhaps because they never leave me alone! Snooks was a pet name that an elderly gentleman used when he met the young members of this particular family. With time they lovingly referred to him as Uncle Snooks. I have a feeling the cat arrived into the household shortly after he died, perhaps that was why he was given the name.

Now you have tweaked my imagination. How does a cat get named Snooks? When I was a child, there was a radio program with a character named Baby Snooks.\. One of my posts ( the one on voices)was about this. Anyway, Snooks as a name, doesn’t seem to be on the 100 list of most popular cat names here in the States. Is is it a common cat name in Ireland?

I loved the story and that cat - what a little vixen. I wouldn’t put it past her to be part of a little game between her and the spirit of the old mother. I have always been convinced that cats have magical abilities when it comes to the spirit world.
