Goober P. Green
I am Chris Green a member of the family who has just recently lost our beloved cat. He was a part of our family for almost 6 years. He was white with grey patches all over him. He was so soft and a great cat to cuddle with. He was very playful and energized. We have had him since I was in the 3rd grade and since he was born. He was one of the BEST cats that I have ever been around. We never had one problem with him. He wasn’t specifically my cat he was more of my mother’s which she treated him like a son. She has not taken all this too well either. He has slept in her bed with her almost every single night for the past near 6 years. It was not fair that he had to go so soon.
The family wasn’t ready to let him go. He was still young and still should be here. The way he passed away was not the way we wanted it to be. He was hit by a car right in front of our house. My mom let him out one day to go play and go to the bathroom. I had seen him later that day running around our yard. Later that night my mom tried calling him in. But he wasnt coming. Which wasn’t all to abnormal because some nights he sleeps outside. So she leaves him outside and goes to bed.
The next morning Goober still wasn’t at the door. At this point my mom starts asking me if I had seen Goober around lately. I hadn’t seen him though. So she takes me to one of my friends and comes home to look for Goober. She then goes up to the road and in the ditch on the side of the road was our poor beloved cat. My mom then buried our dear loved cat. It has only been a day or so since he passed away and I am still in very much pain. To know that the cat that I practically grew up with is no longer here to pet to cuddle with or to hold no longer.
I still keep thinking to myself. Please please let him come running up to the front door meowing to get let in. Or to wake up and go look in my mom’s room and see him snuggled up with my mom. Why why did he have to go so soon. Why couldn’t he have stayed here with his family who loved him so very much. But he will always be with us and will be remembered the greatest cat that lived.
