Ivey was with us most of our lives. She came to us as a medium-grown kitten. She looked like she had been buried alive or abused. When we took her in she grew to be a healthy cat. She was always playful. She LOVED food! She was gray and white and very fat up until she got a thyroid sickness.. But she always remained healthy! She came in bed with us when we were scared she cheered us up when we were sad and she was calmed us down when we were mad.
At the end of July 2001 she started to act as if she couldn’t eat. She just got so sick.. On Aug. 2 we all agreed to put her to sleep. Ivey will always remain in our hearts. We will not see her waiting for people to come home so she could eat. We will not feel her soft fur against our skin anymore. But we will surely feel the love that she gave us.
Good-bye old friend.
I’ll think about you everyday.
