As a child I never had pets to love. As an adult, I saved my first baby “Shadow”. I found him at the local Humane Society, he was the only kitten left from a litter. He was all Black and hiding in the back of his cage in the litter box. Next came my big Bengal boy “Zeus”. His owner could no longer handle taking care of him and the rest of the family had too many other pets.
Lastly was “Fozzy Bear”, probably the only baby left from three litters that the mama cat had. He wasn’t my first choice but I’m soooo glad I ended up with him.
Shadow passed just before Thanksgiving ’07 from years of Urinary Tract infections, Bear left me at the beginning of February from Heart Failure and Zeus has been gone a couple weeks now – Cancer all of a sudden showed up, chemo would not help.
Mommy is so lost without her boys; she’s an old lady with no husband or children. I want so much to have the strength to save a couple new kitties but I’m just not passed my boys being gone. Seeing your quick shadow’s dart around the apartment makes me happy but I miss our cuddling(shads) and our talks (Zeus) and
I miss annoying my little pink nose (Bear).
I even miss the arguments between brothers. Shadow was my strength to go on, Zeus was my protector and Bear was my hope for a happy world in the future.
I Love You Mommy's Baby Boys!
