Toby by Putri / Putri, family, and friends
12 years ago you were just a little kitten with black and white fur. 5 years later a new kitten arrived. I was the one who gave the attention to you. 5 years later, I saw you in the living room laying next to the fireplace. I thought you were sleeping so I went over to you and touched your fur it was still warm, but when I went to feel if your heart was beating, I felt nothing.
I cried that night, screaming in my pillow hoping that one day you would come back, but I knew you wouldn’t.
But I knew you were there with me in spirit.
I miss the way you slept in my bed when there was a stormy night or how you used you wake me up on weekends asking me to feed you.
Now in my bookcase I hold a wooden box.
Inside holds your ashes.
Whenever I hold the box, I feel your presence.
Out of all the cats I had, in my heart you were the best.
No cat can take that place in my heart.
We all miss you and may God bless you, Toby!!
