Lily was a sweet little girl who was part of our lives since the day she was born until the day she became an Angel-Kitty. In all the years I had her, she never hissed, bit or scratched anyone. She was a Mama’s girl who was a little doll and loved to meow-talk, do little tricks, and cuddle. Her life was cut short by a disease called pyometra. She died one month shy of her 7th birthday. Please have your female cats or dogs spayed even if they are strictly indoors, this disease CAN be prevented. We did not know until it was too late. I will forever feel guilty for your life being cut short & I will always grieve your passing. We love you sweetheart and I thank you for bringing so much joy into my life for seven years.
I wrote this poem in Lily’s honor.
My Angel Kitty
You were the little angel who made my life so sweet. You were always there wherever I looked, with your fuzzy face and feet. I had you for such little time, though forever would not suffice. If I had only known the things I know now, you might still be alive.
But your spirit grew wings and flew away, now my home and heart are bare. Your delicate meow and your plinking paws still linger in the air. I’ll try to remember you as a happy little girl who only wanted my love. And how you’d do anything for a little attention from your mama standing above.
I couldn’t have asked for a sweeter cat, you were always such a good girl.
Never wanting more from life than to do your dreamy Lily-twirls. You truly were a special cat, who was nothing but beautiful and heavenly. So God must have needed you right away, by taking you so quickly.
I know that you are smiling again wherever you now are.
Your passing leaves a wound in my heart that will heal, but leave a scar. And each tear I shed when I think of losing you, will remind me of how lucky I was…To be blessed with my sweet little Lily’s angel kitty love. —In Memory of Lily.
Forever Loving & Missing You,
