In the Wine Light is our sweet wine cat, Sami. Long time followers knew Sami as our little photo bomber in our wine photos. It started by accident, but later we would try to get her in the shot. Her fans were sometimes concerned if she was missing from the photo. Sadly, we had to goodbye to our sweet and spicy, Sami Sue on October 10, 2025.
We celebrated Sami’s birthday on November 17th. We didn’t actually know when her birthday was or even how old she was exactly. Sami was a rescue kitty. She was saved by the Saving Southern Kitties from a high kill shelter in Greenville, South Carolina. Her vet records listed November 17th as her birthday, but that might just be the day she was pulled from the shelter.
Saving Southern Kitties is a terrific non-profit organization run by our dear friend, Susan, working to save cats from high kill shelters in the Carolinas. Based in the Charlotte area, this volunteer organization is top notch and does fantastic work. Visit their website to find out how to volunteer, donate money, purchase fun kitty merchandise, or see their list of adoptable cats.
Sami was sweet, a little crazy, and VERY loud. She always had something to say. Sami loved laying the sun, sleeping under her blanket on the couch and in her later years on her big pillow for hours, cardboard boxes, and sitting outside on the patio with her humans. She added such joy to our lives. We miss her dearly and will never forget her.
