Deuce by Crissi Brown / Mommy Crissi

Deuce-

I got you from the humane society and named you so because I had just lost Tiggy and needed a new friend- your name meant “two”, so I figured since you looked just like Tiggy, you could be my second one. What a joy you were in our lives! You never had a liter box, always just letting us know when you needed to go out- at 5:30 in the morning you would meow as loud as possible, for all the times I yelled at you- I am sorry.

I loved the way you would sit and beg just like a dog when daddy was eating- that is the only time you would get near Charlie. You loved to hunt and bring your special “catches” to the door, as if to say- “see mommy”. You bonded really fast with Lenny and Lula- play fighting and hanging out together were the best! I especially will never forget the way you followed me down the street
because you hated seeing me leave.

I nicknamed you “wooter”, but never really understood why- you liked it! You and I had a very special bond Deuce and I am so sorry you got Chronic Renal Failure and got so sick so fast- I wanted to bring you home last night and swore since I was a nurse, I could cure you- but the worst happened- you stopped making any urine and I saw your suffering- I couldn’t watch as they put you to rest, but I just want you to know that I love you very much and I will never forget you- I will hold all of our memories in my heart- my pain is so unbearable right now, all I can do is cry for you.

I believe in heaven, and I know you will watch over me- please send your wind my way so I will know that you are keeping a watch over me. Lula and Lenny will miss you very much, as well as the boys. Carson is sorry he bothered you a lot- he’s only 4- can you forgive him? You are an angel now-

 

With lots of kisses and rubbings on the head,
Deuce
