john

I’m so sad..John left me forever at 3.30am on Sunday , February 4th, 2007..He’s been with me since I was 10 (I’m 24 now)..No words can describe how special he is to me..He is not a fussy cat. However, he is a strange cat. He is very jealoused of other cats. He wants to be with us all the time. He will meow first thing in the morning and expect us to be by his side when he is eating. He will not eat until someone is on his side. The last few weeks he has been sighing and meowing slowly to me. He will sit in a corner and just meow and sigh for a few minutes for no apparent reason. I kept on asking him what is wrong john? And he will just sigh.. On the last few hours before his death, he sigh and meow again but this time very, very slowly. I held his face in my hand and asked him again what is wrong John? This time he dont meow at all..He just look to me without blinking his eyes. He looked very sad. I will not forget how my mom woke me up in the middle of the night, saying, "John has just pass away!" She sobbed and hugged me and I was speechless, seeing his dead, unmoving body. I cry so much and I miss him so much.. He touched me. He touched me because I realise that no one loves me and accepted me unconditonally as he does. I am touched because he is so selfless to his very last moment- he seems sad not because he was sick, in pain or that he will die.. but because he will never be able to be with me again…
