Orange - Striped Cat

I loved my cat Morris very much.

He was my best friend on this earth the only one I felt I

could completely trust the only thing that ever loved me

just as much as I did him.

I used to dress him in doll clothes and wigs when I was

younger and push him around in a baby carriage.

I had a baby doll cradle that he claimed for his own and

slept in that beside me when I was sick.

When I wasn't sick he would sleep right beside me.

I was very hurt the day my mother put him to sleep without my consent.

I had moved out and couldn't take him because he was so old.

My mom took him to be put to sleep a month later.

It still hurts sometimes but I know he is in better hands now

and can chase as many mice as he wants and no one gets grossed

out if he drops them in their soup. (he did that once)
