Forget Bowie Bride. Future Husband's Soulmate is His Cat.

Moe is our cat. Our fluffy, orange, Maine Coon cat, to be exact. A cat with a personality all his own. A cat who is, in the words of Savage Garden, Truly, Madly, Deeply in love with my future husband, Michael.  Moe sees my Michael as his soulmate. This ain't just a crush, yo. Moe is full on balls-in-love with Mike.  Not only do they sleep together... they SPOON each other. All night. In fact, I'd go as far as to say Mike and Moe are more soulmates than Mike and I are soulmates. Well, let me clarify.  I never believed in the word "soulmates" until I saw Mike and Moe together. As one. Human and cat. Together. As lovers. 

Mike and Moe are besties. And I would love nothing more than for Moe to be somewhat present at our wedding.  But Moe can't walk down an aisle. No fuckin way. Moe is too scared to even leave our apartment, let alone be put on parade in front of 150 people.  So it slightly saddens me that such an important little creature won't be present on our big day... Here's why:

Moe was the first "joint purchase" we made together as a couple. We didn't even live together before we bought Moe together.  So in some small way, Moe has been part of the glue that's held Michael and I together.

Moe's been through it all. A summer alone with me in my Arizona apartment. The move from Arizona to Long Beach. The first time we got engaged. The move from Long Beach to Los Angeles.  The second time we got engaged. The hard times. The good times. The sexy times. The not so sexy times...

Yo. Moe-cat's been there.  So our Little Moe-Cat Sweetheart kinda holds this special place in our loins (heart = loins in this case, just roll with it). 

But here's my question: How the foo-uck do you incorporate your cat into a wedding? You see, dog owners do that shit all the time.  Putting their sweet pitbulls in canine tuxedos. Or using their regal Great Danes as ring bearers. But hmmm... a cat... what the shit do you do with that?  

Anyone out there incorporate your kitty-cat into your actual ceremony or reception? I'm interested in live appearance stories as well as picture/video appearances. 'Cause we have to bring Moe into the matrimony mix some how. It's a MUST! So float me your suggs, loves.

 

Um, how cute are Mike and Moe? I know, "waaaaaay." Their cuteness actually makes me want to vomit sometimes.
