Kittens
The story I’m gonna tell you may be a little strange it’s not about two
kittens who where mine but I have prayed to God that when I go to
rainbow bridge and meet all my other pets I’ll meet them to as I still
remember them today.
This happened a long time ago I was only 6 years old (now I’m 17) I don’t
remember the time of year but I remember it was cold me and my brother:
Byron and sister: Sharon was out playing we wanted it to snow but it didn’t.
Suddenly I got to see a cat coming towards us it was totally black I went
over and petted it it was a little shy at first but then he totally surrendered
to me he gave out a little sound and behind him came another little cat
she was the totally opposite of her brother she was totally white.
I announced I wanted them and that they where gonna be called
Blackie and Whitey. I wanted to take them inside but my mom said no
she didn’t want any cat and definitely not two and said if we
feed them they’d stay.
So we had to leave them outside but I snuck out food for them.
Food they probably shouldn’t have but I was only six and all I knew was
that they needed food. This went on for about a week I would go
outside and play with them I grew more and more attached to the two
little kitties as the days went by.
One day we woke up and there where tons of snow inside I ran outside with
my sibbs but only for a second. My mom told me we where going to the city.
I went around outside cause I wanted to take the little kitties inside my very
small dollhouse so they’d be all right but they didn’t came when I called them.
Sad at heart I had to go in the car off to town.
I’ll never forget when I came home I was determined to find Blackie and Whitey
so I started not only calling them but looking every where for them.
My dad fix cars so he had an old care wreck in our drive way,
with a huge cover over it.
When I looked under there I found them I scream out loud and ran away.
Then I stopped and ran back again I petted carefully Whitey but she was
sooo cold. There they where they where lying down as if they where trying
to sleep and they had died that way they had frozen to death.
I started screaming and crying and wanted to pick up Whitey and Blackie
to warm them but they where frozen.
I blamed my mother for their death I said if we had kept them they’d still
be alive my mom got very sad I refused to speak to her for ages and
every night my dad had to rock me into sleep cause I cried so much over them.
My dad told me about rainbow bridge and I asked him if he thought Blackie
and Whitey would meet me when the time came and he said yes.
I really do hope so.
That was the last time I cried for them my mom saw how hard I took the loss
of Blackie and Whitey that she got me another kitten.
I said it could never replace the one’s I loss but I needed a friend,
I named her rainbow.
Till this day I have never forgotten Blackie and Whitey and my prayers
to God is always let me meet them there let them look at me as their
owner and friend so they can get into heaven so I can say how deeply
sorry I was unable to save their life’s.
I love you Blackie and Whitey and
I always will.
