Butterbean by Katie / Katie or your Mommy

Butterbean,

I love you so much. Even though you are gone from earth you are in my heart forever. I got you when I was little and lost you when I was still young. My dear cat as I am growing and the years are passing, I really need support.

You left me shortly before Mamaw got sick and passed on. I really needed you then. Now Mamaw is in Heaven with you. Please be nice to her. As much as I need you I am glad you are with God.

I was baptized after your death and my Baptist religion and faith has grown.Baby I need you but I know I can’t have you.

I now have three other cats named Country, Smoky, and Tiger. Country reminds me a lot of you, but he cannot replace you. Ever.

I am growing Butter, I am about to be thirteen. I had always dreamed of having you with me until I died, but I will have to live it without you now. I had thought you would be with me past my college years. That won’t happen but I will remember you way past then.

Quite a few times I thought I heard you and I also thought I saw you, too. Butter I miss you and I need you.

Say hello to mamaw and Uncle Ricky for me. I will see you when I reach the Golden Gates of Heaven. I will see you soon baby. Bye kid. I love you.
