When I first saw you, you were this tiny little kitten with great big paws! It was love at first site, for both of us. As time passed and we were inseparable you grew into this beautiful BIG cat with such a personality and a real “talker”. You loved to be brush, and you would butt your head against me for more. Butting your head against me to get attention, or to let me know you wanted more. You loved cows, your eyes would get extra huge when you saw cows, and would follow them with your eyes as we rode in the car.
You had a stuffed cow and fish that were not out of your sight for too long. Everyone loved you, your personality could change anyone into a cat lover. How you loved to go to the cat shows, and loved to have your picture taken.
You were my rock, my constant companion,always with love and comfort. When you got so sick, you fought a hard battle, you tried to stay with me, each time I thought it was the end you came back to me, I think you knew I was having a hard time letting you go, I was not ready.
That final day, we drove in to the country for your last look at the cows, you laid in my arms and let me know in your special way how much you loved me and it was time…I told you it was okay to go, I wasn’t ready, but your body could not keep up the fight any longer no matter how hard you tried, and with that final butt of your head and loving eyes you were gone.
I felt your spirt go. You are free now of pain, you are that young playful kitty again. I know you wait for me to join you one day, ever vigilant. I carry you forever in my heart and gain comfort in knowing that we will be together again. Sleep well my sweet baby.
Eternal love,
